He caught her speeding in a school zone and decided she needed to learn even civil disobedience could have very painful consequences.
Welcome to the first Sneak Peek Sunday of June. For Sneak Peek Sunday we share six paragraphs from a published work or a WIP (work in progress).
My submission for this week is from my 3rd book, Arrested by Love. A handsome, but strict, police officer decides a spoiled socialite needs a special lesson in obeying the law.
Tiffany Morgan has been in love with Kyle Sinclair since she was ten years old, when he'd turned her over his knee for attempting to swim in a raging white water river. Though she'd been furious with him at the time, Tiffany never told her family what Kyle did. Instead, she began trailing after him like an annoying younger sister as she tried to gain his attention.
Now, eleven years later, Kyle, a patrol officer, is finding it much more difficult to maintain his distance from the irresistible and vivacious redhead who continues to invent ingenious ways to attract his interest. Though he dismissed her initial attraction to him as infatuation, as she grew-up, his own feelings of desire and protectiveness deepened. So, despite his constant struggle to resist the spirited little minx's lures, Kyle finally has to admit that he is losing the battle--badly.
In this excerpt from Chapter One, Tiffany Morgan deliberately breaks the law in order to get Kyle Sinclair's attention. This isn't the first time she's gone out of her way to bait the police officer, so she is familiar with the routine. Unfortunately, she's just admitted she knew she was speeding, which he considers to be a rash, reckless and punishable offense. He is the process of writing her a ticket along with a recommendation she attend mandatory driver's training, when Tiffany gathers up her courage and propositions him. Though she is obviously playing the flirt, rather than see the humor in her teasing, Kyle informs her she's overstepped her bounds, slaps handcuffs on her and escorts her to the back of his cruiser where he lets her sit and think about what she just did as he cools off his temper.
Kyle was so
angry with Tiffany for her deliberate recklessness, he feared he'd lose his
temper with her. So, rather than tempt
himself further by giving her a well-deserved scolding, he slammed his
cruiser's door and strode to stand before the hood of his car, where he crossed
his arms over his chest and considered what he should do next.
She had
absolutely no regard for her own safety.
He knew that since the summer she'd turned ten years old and went
swimming in the rain-swollen Pentucket river after her parents had wisely
forbidden her to go anywhere near it. Though
only seventeen and little more than a kid himself, he'd managed to
save her. Then, once he'd made sure she
hadn't been hurt by the river's rough handling, he'd been angry enough to give
her five hard swats on her pink swimsuit covered backside. Afterwards, she wailed as if he'd beaten
her black and blue, so he gently rocked her in his
arms while he quietly scolded her for risking her life until she'd
finally calmed.
Then
putting her aside, he ordered her back home to change out of her wet suit. He thought she'd run back to her Daddy and
complain about what he'd done, but she hadn't.
Instead, the very next day she'd actually started following him around
like a pesky younger sister, remaining his permanent shadow until two years
later, when he'd left and joined the army to train as a medic.
He knew
she'd become smitten with him, since during those two years she'd occasionally
try to get his attention, often by doing stupid girly things. Still, all it took was a sharp word or look
from him and she'd promptly settle down and behave again.
Despite
having a nearly constant tail on him, they really had very little contact with
each other until she'd turned eighteen and he found himself rescuing her
again. This time from a near rape by one
of the cretins she'd been dating. Kyle
had joined up with the police force by then, so he did the "right"
thing by threatening the guy with arrest first, despite the fact he wanted to knock
out a few of the idiot's teeth. However,
some guys were just too stupid to live, he guessed, since this drunken lout didn't
have the sense God gave a peacock to lay low.
As Kyle had
leaned against the door of his cruiser and listened while the moron continued
to spew epithets at him, which should never have been spoken in a lady's
presence, he merely kept an eye on his watch and waited for the second hand to
swing up to twelve at which point he informed the imbecile that he was
officially off-duty and clocked him one, knocking him out.
Despite his sternness, Kyle has fallen for Tiffany, which makes her proposition even more unacceptable in his eyes. The woman was too reckless with her own safety by half, and Kyle was determined to teach her a lesson she wouldn't forget for a long time to come.
