“You’re an exceedingly attractive woman, Janna.”
Morgan realized his hormones were in overdrive, but he didn’t care.
Janna smirked. “Don’t try to work your charm on me. I know what I look like.”
“I’m just stating the facts, sweetheart. Are you telling me those big-city corporate types haven’t noticed and panted after you?” he asked.
“Since I work ten-hour days, there hasn’t been time for personal relationships.” She plunked down at his table. “Besides, I learned my lesson about men twelve years ago—with you.”
Morgan sighed heavily as he took his seat.
“I was only eighteen years old then, Janna. You aren’t going to hold me personally accountable for distorting your perception of men, are you?”
“I was sweet sixteen and never been kissed until that night with you. And you must have made a lasting impression on me because I’m still a virgin.” Janna stared at him straight in the eyes.
The comment caused him to rear back in surprise—which wasn’t a good thing since he was teetering off balance in his chair. Morgan yelped when the chair tipped back and crashed to the floor—with him in it.
Dear Reader,
I’m delighted to be writing my fourth romantic comedy because love and laughter are the perfect combination for a story. In The Family Feud, Jan Mitchell is trying to reconcile her middle-age-crazy parents, but her old flame, Morgan Price, lands right smack-dab in the middle of the family feud. Ignoring him is about as easy as ignoring a rumbling volcano. Jan doesn’t need a distraction during her family’s fiasco, but there’s Morgan, handsome and sexy as ever.
So what’s a woman to do but fall head over heels for the first love of her life and hope she doesn’t get her heart broken a second time.
Enjoy!
