‘Tristan, we’re in a broom cupboard.’
‘Yeah, I know, but no one will think to look for us in here.’
Her heart thumped hard against her ribcage and her whole body tingled with awareness at his close proximity.
The next second his hands had found her face and slid along her jaw, drawing her towards him, and then his mouth was on hers, hot and firm.
He dropped kisses along her jawline, sending great twists of erotic sensation through her whole body.
‘Don’t think,’ he murmured, the vibration of his words tickling and teasing the hypersensitive skin of her throat as he moved lower. ‘Just do.’
He slammed against her, forcing her back against the wall, sending what sounded like brooms crashing to the floor.
This wasn’t playful any more. It was hot and heavy and serious.
Inevitable.
It was what she wanted. What she needed.
In a shocking moment of clarity she realised that this had always been going to happen.
She’d been kidding herself the whole time.
Welcome to the wonderful world of radio. I had a lot of fun writing about my introverted DJ and her battle to keep her job—and her self-control—after she locks horns, lips and more with a hot-as-sin guy who unfortunately turns out to be her new boss!
As an introvert myself, I’m fascinated by the differences between how I function compared with how an extrovert might get through her day. For a long time I thought my natural instinct to hang back in a new situation and my need to take regular breaks at social occasions was a character flaw, but after researching the subject of introversion I was mightily relieved to find that I wasn’t alone in my quirks.
My heroine, Lula, has been struggling with her quirks for many years, worrying the whole time that her sometimes debilitating shyness outside of work has made her unlovable. It takes a hero as compassionate and patient as Tristan to help her recognise her strengths and make her realise that her idiosyncrasies are actually what make her so special.
I hope you enjoy reading their story as much as I loved writing it.
All the best
