Dear Reader,
It’s so wonderful to be back diving into the sizzling fun of writing for Blaze® again! Where does the time go when we’re all having fun, anyway? And I had the supreme pleasure of getting to write another WRONG BED story. Nothing is more fun for me than trapping my hero or heroine (preferably both!) in an unforeseen situation that requires fast thinking and quick reflexes to wriggle out of.
In Simon Says … I admit I was rather wicked in the way I set up Sophie and Simon. But, trust me, it’s so much more fun that way. Night manager Sophie Maplethorpe definitely has her hands full when she’s caught red-handed in a room in her own hotel, trying to steal back her best friend’s phone … only to discover she’s not only in the wrong room, but the man occupying the bed … and presently aiming a gun in her direction, has checked into the Wingate for obviously nefarious reasons. Simon Lassiter, a hot Kiwi with a to-die-for accent and the kind of searing intensity that would make a Bond girl choose him over James any day, now has to figure out what to do with the woman he wakes up to find in his room … and mere steps away from his bed. He’s there to steal a priceless jewel … so why is it all he can think about is stealing a few hours with Sophie instead?
Thank you for joining me in my romping return to the Blaze® fold. I hope you have as much fun reading Sophie and Simon’s sexy escapade as I did writing it. A nice cold beverage and a fan might be a good idea to keep nearby while reading. Just sayin’!
Happy reading,
Donna Kauffman
To Mary and Rhonda,
