Forbidden Heat
by JL White
GENRE: New Adult Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
They
call us the Firework Girls.
I’m Isabella. My comfort zone consists of a bank of test tubes and a Bunsen burner. But having to take a philosophy class to graduate from college—well, that’s causing a different kind of burn altogether. I mean, the hottest professor at Hartman is looking right at me.
Can you blame me for looking back?

EXCERPT:
Feeling dizzy, I back away from the table with heavy limbs.
The girls I met don’t notice my departure but Justin Kirby does.
He’s right next to me with his hand on my lower back.
“I need to sit down,” I say.
“Okay sweetheart,” he says.
He steers me away, past an empty chair.
“Wait,” I say, but he leads me to the basement stairs and we
start to go up. I’m having trouble managing them.
I mumble something as we wind through the crowd on the main
floor, bumping against a shoulder here and an elbow there. The music is
pounding. I feel it in my body, but it sounds muffled, along with all the other
sounds in the room. He steers me up another flight of stairs. He has to put his
arm around me to keep me from tripping on the steps.
What’s the matter with me?
There’s a long, dark hallway at the top, with several rooms
breaking off on either side. Justin Kirby is practically dragging me along.
When he opens a door, I see a bed in the room and know I’m
in trouble. I’m almost too out of it to panic properly.
All of a sudden, he half lets go of me, half shoves me into
the doorjamb.
I hit my forehead on the wood, trying to hang on to
something. There’s screaming and yelling—I’m hearing his voice, I think, and
someone else’s, a woman’s voice—but it’s all confusion to me and now all I can
do is think about the fact that I’m falling and can’t stop.

ReplyDeleteI am so glad I have gotten to meet the Firework Girls. I want to read them all. On my TBR list!(jozywails@gmail.com)
ReplyDeleteIf you could cast your characters in the Hollywood adaptation of your book, who would play your characters?
ReplyDeleteOooh, that's a toughie. I'm not good at casting games.... After Googling "hottest actors" I've spent way too much time drooling over my keyboard. Not a bad way to start my day. :) I think James Mardsen Gap would be the perfect Jack. Yummers.
