Today, I'm happy to welcome Té Russ to my blog. She's a prolific writer, who's not only releasing a new book, but has a birthday today! Join me in extending congratulations and wishing her a fabulous birthday!
Just
one night. That's all it was supposed to be for Anthony McAllister and Denise
Monroe. But then one night turned into one weekend. And one weekend turned into
one test that would change both of their lives forever.
Now
all Denise wants is for things to go back to the way they used to be, but
Anthony soon discovers that he wants more and he'll do whatever it takes to
convince her that just one night can lead to just one beautiful
lifetime...together...
EXCERPT
“This is not what I expected when you
offered to come to the bathroom.”
Denise looked over her shoulder and smiled at
Anthony as he sat in a chair with his head tilted back. She gave the straight
razor she was sharpening one last swipe against the leather strop then turned
to him. She took the warm towel off of his face and filled her hands with
shaving cream.
“You were starting to look like a mountain
man Tony. And since it's my job to keep you looking your best, this needed to
be fixed immediately.”
“You don’t like the rough look?” he teased,
wiggling his eyebrows. “I was thinking of letting it grow out.”
“I trust you,” Anthony said, leaning back and
closing his eyes.
Denise took a step forward in between his
legs that were slightly parted and slowly lathered the shaving cream on his
face. Then she picked up the razor and went to work. She took her time shaving
his face, careful not to leave any nicks. As she continued working on his face,
she also studied it. The man was so gorgeous, it nearly took her breath away.
She didn’t realize that she'd stopped what
she was doing until Anthony opened his eyes and looked up at her.
“You ok, Dee?”
“What? Yeah, I’m fine.”
“You sure?”
“Of course, let me finish up with your face.”
A few minutes later, she was washing the rest
of the shaving cream away.
“Well, what do you think?”
Anthony stood and looked at himself in the
mirror. He ran his hand over his jaw, down his cheek and across his chin. His
head nodded slightly then he turned to Denise.
“What do you think?” he asked.
She reached up and ran her hand across the
soft hairs on his face. It was certainly a new look for him. Usually he was
always clean shaven. But there was something nice about this new look.
“I like it,” she finally said.
“Yeah?”
“Yeah. It looks good with your hair.” She
took one of his locs between her fingers. Her pulse quickened when he wrapped
his hand around her wrist.
“I’m glad you came by today,” he said,
looking down at her.
“So am I,” she said smiling.

About the Author:
Growing
up an introvert, Té Russ found solace in
literary arts at an early age. She found reading to be a vehicle to broader
horizons and writing a form of self-expression. She began writing love stories
in her adolescent years as a way to expel her youthful thoughts of love into
words. Since then she has gone from writing stories and thoughts of love in
journals to attending college for journalism and falling in love, which has
allowed those youthful words of love to blossom into a series of stories in her
romance novels.
Though she has an immense appreciation for the sheer smell that
books collectively exert, she also has found balance to her introverted nature
with adrenaline inducing activities. So if she does not have her nose pressed
deeply into a book or her pen ticking through a pad, you may also find this
mother of three jumping out of airplanes, cheering her husband on at the top of
her lungs at MMA fights, buzzing down the interstate on the back of
motorcycles, or kayaking.
Happy Birthday! Wishing you much success with your new book.
