Temptation's Kiss

Temptation's Kiss
Janice Sims

Patrice Sutton has just landed the role of her career. Snagging the female lead opposite devastatingly handsome, six-foot-three movie idol T. K. McKenna is a dream come true. When she learns they'll be filming out West she's secretly thrilled…and ready to show her gorgeous costar the ropes of life on the ranch. Until T.K. turns the tables–by initiating her into the art of seduction far from the camera's glare.T.K. knows that with her incredible beauty, talent and sweet sincerity, Patrice has what it takes to make it really big. And the burgeoning film star is showing T.K. a passion more real than anything he's ever experienced on–or off–the screen. But what will it take to prove to her that she's the only woman he'll ever desire…and love?

It was quiet on the set.

In the make-believe bedroom,

Patrice and T.K. kissed tenderly.

He ran his lips down her neck, stopping

at the crevice where her breasts

came together in the corset she wore.

Patrice trembled with pleasure. Rehearsal aside, she was turned on by T.K. He slowly removed her corset and her breasts fell into his big hands. Patrice unbuttoned T.K.’s shirt and ran her hands over his smooth, muscular chest. She felt herself growing moist between her legs, so she tried to focus her mind elsewhere.

She closed her eyes and T.K. kissed her. She didn’t recall a kiss being in the script at this point.

The script. She tried to focus on the script. How Bella gestured without speaking, indicating where she wanted Bass to touch her. She could do that. In Bella she’d found free expression. It was almost like making love to T.K. When they mimicked full-on intercourse, there was a thick cloth between them, but they were each naked from the waist up, and their chests were rubbing. What she did for art. They screamed in ecstasy, and it was over. They fell onto the bed, exhausted but satisfied.

The director yelled, “Cut!”

To the readers who have been with me since

Affair of the Heart. And to the new readers who just

decided to try one of my books for the first time. You’re

both the reason I stay up late at night writing. Thank you!

Dear Reader,

While writing Temptation’s Kiss I finally understood exactly why you hear about so many actors falling in love on the set of a film. In the book, Patrice and T.K. have a hard time denying their passion for one another. And being constantly thrown together on the set of the movie they are shooting only makes them want each other even more.

And by the way, the character T.K. portrays in the movie, Frontier Marshal Bass Reeves, really existed.

Look for the final book in the trilogy, Dance of Temptation, in a store near you soon. Write to me at jani569432@aol.com, or visit my website at www.janicesims.com. You can also find me on Facebook. And if you’re not online yet you can write me at P.O. Box 811, Mascotte, FL 34753-0811.

Best always,

Janice Sims

Sweat trickled between Patrice Sutton’s brows. She wiped it off and dried her damp palm on the leg of her jeans. Her gaze was on the woman ahead of her in the calf-roping competition as she climbed onto her horse and prepared to race out of the box after the calf when it was released from the chute.
