Snippet Saturday ~ Winter Wonderland

Welcome to another Snippet Saturday. Today's theme is Winter Wonderland. Feel free to read my excerpt and then hop around to the other blogs listed below!


When her roommate, needing a romantic weekend with her boyfriend, bribes her out of the house with use of an isolated cabin, Nikki reluctantly agrees. She didn't realize the cabin came fully equipped with an uptight, yet incredibly sexy, man.


Chase is looking forward to a quiet weekend alone at his cabin. When he tackles someone who he believes to be an intruder, he's surprised to find the unusual and sensual woman was given a key to his place.


Stuck together during a snowstorm, the heat from the fire isn't the only thing heating up the cabin.


EXCERPT


"Let's go build a snowman." Nikki set down her cards, feeling

restless and a bit playful.


They'd had a lazy afternoon. Hanging out in their pajamas, playing

cards and watching random movies on television. But the itch to get

outdoors was hitting hard.


"Build a snowman?" His brow rose with obvious skepticism.


Nikki climbed off the fur rug they were sitting on and stood up.


"Come on. It would be fun."


He stood up, too, scratching the back of his head. "Do you have

some clothes? Something that covers your legs?"


"I've got some jeans. Hang on, let me get dressed." She turned and

went into the bedroom, grabbing her pants and pulling them on.


Chase followed her into the room and threw on his own clothes as

well.


Ten minutes later they were outside walking around the yard.


"This is great." Nikki leaned down, grabbed a handful of snow—

yelping at the cold on her bare hands.


"Snowman?" He formed his own ball by rolling it in the snow until

it was triple its original size.


Wow, he was really getting into this. She grinned and followed

suit. Before long they had a full‐fledged snowman.


"Looks good." She grinned and, on impulse, chucked the lump of

snow in her hand at him.


Chase blinked, looking absolutely stunned. Then his laughter rang

through the trees as he charged her. She barely had time to yelp before

he'd tackled her into the soft snow.


Nikki laughed so hard her stomach ached. She tried to roll away

from him and get the upper hand, but he had one leg thrown across her

while he rubbed snow into her hair.


"You win!" She giggled and finally lay limp in the snow. "Okay.

Now I'm officially freezing."


"Yeah? Me, too." He climbed off her and held out his hand.


"Shower?"


She took his hand, and he pulled her to her feet. "Mmm. Sex in the

shower?"


His husky laugh sent a rush of warm heaviness between her thighs.


"I think that could be arranged."
