Sweet Saturday Sample–11/19 Almost Perfect

 

Welcome back for another Sweet Saturday Sample!   Thank you to both first-time visitors and those who return each week.  I appreciate everyone stopping by.  

Today’s sample  is a continuation of my erotic Contemporary Almost Perfect.  It releases on November 25, just a week away!  This week’s sample continues in the PG-13 vein.

“Pamela? What are you doing here?” Roger Ware’s baritone voice, his best feature as far as his ex-wife was concerned, sounded as shocked as she felt.

“I asked you first. But there’s apparently been some horrible mistake. You’re on a one-night stand too, aren’t you?”

His pale gray eyes narrowed. “How did you know that? Nobody knows that.”

She shook her head. “Madame Eve must have seen our applications, realized we used to be married, and decided to play matchmaker. Why can’t people just mind their own damn business and do their job?”

“How did you know about the one-night stand, Pam?” His lips thinned into a straight line.

God, was he as dense as ever? “I’m here for a one-night stand. You show up on a deserted island three thousand miles from sunny California and you expect me to believe it’s just a coincidence? Coincidences only happen in the movies. Like Harrison Ford and Ann Heche in Six Days Seven Nights. He just happens to be on his way to Tahiti, there just happens to be a storm, her cell phone just happens not to work.”

“I might have known we couldn’t be together two minutes before you cited some stupid movie.”

“I’m telling you why I knew you were on a one-night stand.” She cocked her head. “Aren’t you supposed to be dressed like a pirate?”

He glanced down at his loose-fitting white v-neck shirt, sleeves rolled above his elbows, and equally loose-fitting white pants and sandals. “Am I?”

If you read  Six Sentence Sunday last week you know that Pam and Roger’s divorce was anything but amicable. 🙂  I’m posting another six tomorrow, then again next Saturday and Sunday in celebration of my release!  You can also join in the fun with your own sample next week.  And follow this link to Sweet Saturday Sample to find more “sweet” offerings.

    LOL Are you sure they’re not together anymore? The arguing and her sarcastic thoughts about him sounds like they still are! Great sample, Jenna!

  2. This is great! I really don’t think he’s her ‘one-night-stand’ and he’s not going to like when the pirate shows up. Looking forward to reading this one. 🙂

  4. YAY for a new release! I love how he counters her reference to the movie, and his parting (for this excerpt) comment is intriguing. I expect sparks would FLY when they get together!
