Contest and New Release!

Coming July 10, 2009

HER MAINE MAN © Copyright, Sylvie Kaye

One weekend a year to bare your soul and your passion. He couldn't believe the sweet deal she was offering. No commitment, just pure release.

A deathbed promise takes Jon from his consulting desk to a remote island in Maine, where he becomes entangled with one of the loose ends.

As one of the island's first family and a target for scandal, Maddie longs to share her body and her secrets. The sexy, visiting consultant seems perfect for a clandestine, once-a-year affair—until once isn't enough.

Unedited Excerpt

 

Feeling like a pet owner boarding out beloved Fido, Jon parked his Jag in the lot near the ferryboat landing.  He wished he had the portable dust cover he'd been meaning to buy for just such car emergencies.

           After he locked the door, he patted its gray, simonized fender lovingly and walked away, laptop in hand.  He refused to look back when a rusty, red Jeep spun into the parking lot kicking up enough dust to choke a herd of elephants, let alone one mere Jaguar.  His muscles flinched beneath the shoulder strap of his leather overnight bag.

          Tension had built on Interstate 95 with the steady stream of weekend traffic.  It looked like more stress ahead as he strode toward the boat's rickety boarding ramp.  A few cars, apparently headed for other island ports that allowed autos, rattled onboard the double-decked, paint-chipped ferry.

           He took a seat on the warped wooden bench of the superior deck, well away from the couple with the paper sack intent on feeding the squawking seagulls.

           None too soon, the ferryboat pilot blew a whistle, the gulls screamed, and the last boat for Rose Island steered away from the landing with all the speed of a last place racehorse.  Jon let out a long breath, suspicious of the boat staying afloat any longer than he could.

          Once underway, two things lifted his spirits.  An ocean breeze cut through the midday sun and heat.  And a blonde, portside.

         Standing at the rail, wisps of hair escaping a lone braid trickling down her statuesque neck, stood the woman of his dreams.  His dreams for a livelier voyage, anyway.

         A ferryboat romance.  Now that gave him some salty ideas.  He wondered if there was a mile-out club, sort of a spin off from the mile-high club.
