Kissed, Loved, Lied & Left



Sweet Romantic Suspense
Price: $2.99





Blurb:
Senator Jordan Dupré is reluctant to revisit her past. That thought crumbles at the sight of Deacon Burke. His commanding presence and charming smile transports her back to her youth. Back then, she kissed, loved, lied, and left him—taking a life-changing secret with her.

Scorned by Jordan’s dishonesty, Deke swears he never wants to see her lying face again. However, his heart knows better, and he never stops thinking of her. When Jordan’s husband is killed, Deke is summoned to the Senator’s aid, by an unlikely source—Unfortunately, he brings a secret of his own.

Will secrets from their past reignite their cherished moments?

Excerpt:
Deke stood—his expression blank. Apparently, he was also frozen in time.
Eyes wide and mouth agape, time had certainly stopped for her.
"Long time, no see," he remarked, closing the space between them.
As Jordan cleared her throat, she regained her composure. "That's an understatement."
With a sparkle in his eye, he seemed to scrutinize her from head to toe.
Embarrassed beneath his gaze, Jordan blushed. No longer was she the stick-thin; spunky, grad-student. Dressed in a colorful sleeveless top that accentuated the tone of her brown skin, she'd filled out in all the right places. Her tight jeans emphasized her mature, but curvy figure. Did this full-grown woman still mesmerize him?
Deke looked into her face. "Age hasn't impacted your beauty. Your brown eyes are still as beautiful as ever."
Uncertain of her response, Jordan drew a cleansing breath, and then moistened her lips.
With his eyes fixed on her lips, Deke beamed.
Had her innocent gesture sent him back to another time and place, when they once enjoyed each other?
"The look. Deke still has it."
