Darcy Flynn is in the Spotlight today with her new release
Hawke's Nest
Blurb:
Running away is nothing new for Annie Dell, aka high-fashion model Anna Delany. With the paparazzi hot on her trail, an out of town wedding couldn’t have come at a more opportune time. What better place to hide out than the quaint Florida beach town Liddy’s told her so much about. But a delayed flight, the mix up with the car rental, then a speeding ticket from the local Sheriff of Nottingham, her getaway is looking anything but relaxing.
Franklin County Sheriff, Levi Hawke, is tired of the spoiled, out-of-control students on fall break, who think they can speed through his county without consequence. After giving a ticket to a beautiful young woman he assumes is just another daddy’s girl looking for some fun in the sun, he discovers she’s his weekend date at his best friend’s wedding.
Through gritted teeth, masked by a half-hearted truce, they survive the weekend, only to find themselves stranded alone in the middle of a hurricane. You can discover a lot about a person while spending thirty-six hours without the comforts of electricity and modern conveniences. When circumstances further extend her stay in town, Levi pries deeper to find out what Annie’s running from. He knows when someone is haunted by their past. As the saying goes ... it takes one to know one.
Excerpt from HAWK'S NEST
Levi sipped his wine and watched
her. He hadn’t missed the slight flush to her cheeks when he raised his glass
to hers. If anything it made her more beautiful. Gave her an innocence he was
certain she didn’t possess. At that moment the small orchestra began to play
and several more couples moved to the dance floor.
“Would you like to
dance?” he asked.
She lifted her
eyes to his and blinked. Pleased to see he had surprised her, he stood and held
out his hand.
I’m not the small town bumpkin you thought I
was.
She hesitated but
only for a moment, then stood and placed her hand in his. He led her to the
dance floor and deftly took her into his arms. She sucked in her breath. The
small but audible sound pleased him. He watched the rise and fall of her chest
as she strove to gain her footing. “Sorry, is my grip too tight?”
“No. No, it’s
fine.”
She was lying. He
was trained to know when someone wasn’t telling him the truth.
“You dance
beautifully,” she said.
“You sound
surprised.”
“I am. In New
York, I went dancing often. You’d be surprised how few men can dance. Really
well, I mean. Most of them have two left feet and by the end of the evening my
toes would end up black and blue.”
Open and frank,
her eyes held just a hint of laughter. His stomach lurched. That surprised him.
That candid gaze of hers. He didn’t much like it. He liked it better when she
played it coy. That he could deal with, because that’s who she really was. But
this sweet innocent act was just that, an act. He deliberately twirled her hard
and fast around another couple. She gasped and missed her footing. Daggers shot
from her green eyes.
There she is. She couldn’t stand him.
Well, that was fine with him. The feeling was mutual.
