Looks great. I'd love to read about a blaack female software engineer. Geek heroines are always a sure-fire hit with me. Thanks much!Update: I just read the review on Radical Reviews and I'm so there! Thanks so much for the geek heroine, yay!
Hello. Yes it's an IR contemporary romance. The heroine is of Haitian descent and the hero is of Mediterranean descent. I had a lot of fun putting them together so I hope you enjoy :)

Hello All,
Happy Friday! My name is Laurel Cremant and I’m an author living in sunny Miami, Florida. I’m happy to share an excerpt from my new book Negotiating Skills available online now through major booksellers. I had a lot fun writing these characters and hope you’ll have just as much fun reading their story.
I love hearing from readers and getting feedback so please feel free to post a response here or on my website, www.LaurelCremant.com.
Fair warning, the excerpt below is not PG and is slightly racy...
Best,
Laurel

BLURB
Witnessing a private act leads to some interesting negotiations... Software programmer Veronica James is struggling to make her new business a success. Unfortunately, after finally landing a major account, she’s at risk of losing it all when she catches her new client Victor Rossi in a very compromising position. In an effort to regain the upper hand, Rossi insists on some very sexy and compromising concessions that have Veronica reconsidering her hard fast rule of not mixing business with pleasure.
EXCERPT...
“If you all would excuse us, I’d like to discuss the additional details of my report now.”
His tone left no room for argument and the group of VPs and programmers hurried out of the office oblivious to the smoldering fog of anticipation in the air.
Victor didn’t let his gaze waver from Veronica’s. When the door closed behind the final person Victor pressed the intercom unit at the table and spoke softly to his assistant.
“Marie, cancel all remaining appointments for the afternoon and go ahead and leave early,” he said.
“Yes sir,” replied the efficient voice through the speaker.
Victor watched as Veronica sat calmly down in a chair at the end of the table and crossed her legs. She quirked an eyebrow at him and her message was clear. Come and get me.
Victor’s dick hardened further in response to her brazen provocation.
He stood and began stalking towards her. He shrugged off his suit jacket not bothering to see where it landed.
“Just so we’re clear,” he said as he removed his tie and threw it over his shoulder.
He reached over and swiveled her chair around to him placing his hands on the armrests effectively caging her in. He leaned forward and his nostrils flared at the scent of her. She wasn’t as unaffected as she pretended to be. He could smell her arousal. The smell was like a wet heavy cloak surrounding her.
He gave her his own wicked smile as that small victory whipped through his system.
“That,” he said motioning towards his abandoned folio at the head of the table, “is considered an invitation.”
Veronica tilted her head back and brought her plush mouth so close to his that her lips brushed his when she spoke softly.
“Just so we’re clear,” she replied huskily, “It is.”
Victor gave a rumbling sound of satisfaction before clamping his lips on hers in a hungry kiss.
