Divining Elise by Jody A. Kessler
Title: Divining Elise
Series: Granite Lake Romance (standalone)
Author: Jody A. Kessler
Genre: Steamy Contemporary Romance
Release Date: June 21, 2018
Elise Martinez wished her date with destiny didn’t include being run off the road by the most caring, handsome, and intelligent man she’d ever met.
Moving to Granite Lake to manage a bookstore and coffee shop meant Elise could finally leave her haunted past behind, but being a psychic mom to a deaf child has its benefits and downfalls—and her guarded heart isn’t ready for a new romance.
Rob Everett never imagined giving up corporate law to open a brewery with his brothers in Granite Lake would begin with a car accident and the arrival of a surprise baby.
As if being a single dad and starting a new business weren’t challenging enough, Rob can’t get the beautiful, mysterious, and feisty bookstore manager out of his mind.
For Elise and Rob, falling in love is a complicated, sexy, and emotional enterprise.
Mix in a baby, a haunted brewery, craft beer, and a dangerous ex-husband into this recipe of love and their future isn’t as easily divined as the fates would have foretold.
**A steamy, fun, stand-alone novel with a happy ever after.
“If we do this, I need you to make me a promise,” she said and leaned back so she could look him in the eyes.
“What is it?” he asked, the hint of challenge gleamed in his pale irises.
“You can’t ask me out tomorrow or act like you own me or anything else possessive. We can have tonight and no promises afterward.”
“You want a one night stand with me, Elise Martinez? Should I feel used or honored before we even do the deed?”
“You’re using me, too. It’s mutually beneficial.”
“I guess this is happening, then,” he said with that irresistible half-smile, half-smirk that made her insides quiver and her toes curl.
“Yes, it is,” she said and slid her nails over his taut stomach toward his beltline.
Rob stroked his fingers over her chest and up her neck until he cradled her jaw. He tilted her face up, firm, yet delicate in the way he handled her. He forced her to look at him again before she could lower his pants and find out what the rest of him looked like.
“Are you sure about this, Elise?” he asked.
She stilled, breathing in the moment, staring back into the most incredible eyes she’d ever seen and nodded against his cupped hand. Elise turned her face into his hand, then tasted his finger with a stroke of her tongue. A hint of cinnamon lingered on his skin. He gripped her tighter for the second it took to bring his mouth back to hers.
His tongue delved in. His mouth captured hers. Possessive. It scared and thrilled her.
“Jesus, I like kissing you,” he whisper-hissed when he came up for air. He moved to the pulse point below her jaw. “We should move this to the bedroom.”
