Blog Tour: "Worth the Challenge" by Karen Erickson
(Thanks
so much to the ladies at Book Lovin’ Mamas for letting me share a bit of Rhett
Worth with everyone today!)
Please
enjoy this exclusive, never before seen (slightly adult-ish) excerpt from Worth the Challenge, the latest in the Worth It
series:
She
walked inside the room, her steps faltering when the three men who sat at the
table turned to look at her. Alex, Hunter and Rhett Worth watched as she
approached, power exuding from them in tangible waves. All three of them were
clad in expensive designer suits. Colorful silk ties by Worth Luxury circled
their necks.
Alex
sent his brothers a measured look before he stood, the other two following his
lead, and he came toward Ella with his hand extended, a polite smile curling
his lips. “Alexander Worth. So glad you could join us today, Miss Durand.”
“Thank
you.” She took his hand, marveled that she didn’t feel a thing when he touched
her. “It’s nice to meet you.”
She
turned to Hunter, who introduced himself with gracious charm, his blue eyes
twinkling when it was his turn to shake her hand. Again, she wondered why she felt
absolutely nothing when he touched her.
Then
she found Rhett standing in front of her, that lazy smile of his in full
effect, making her knees weaken. He took her hand, gave it a more intimate
squeeze versus the formal pump of a firm handshake. “Good to see you again,
Gabriella. I trust you slept well?”
Heat
sparked where their hands connected and his intimate question had her insides
quivering. Their brief kiss came to mind and she was thankful he didn’t act
awkward or try to ignore her. “I did, thank you.”
He
released her hand, his fingers sliding over the top of hers and she barely
restrained the shiver that overtook her at his simple touch. The smile grew,
his eyes darkened as if perhaps his thoughts were the same as hers. Talk of
sleeping well made her think of beds, which made her think of Rhett in her
bed. Keeping her awake long through the night while he touched her, kissed her
everywhere...
She
wouldn’t be complaining of lack of sleep if that were the case.
“Have
a seat.” He placed his hand at the small of her back and escorted her to a
chair, pulling it out for her before she sat. Settling in beside her, he rested
his arm on top of the table, his hand splayed, fingers rubbing against the
shiny surface of the tabletop. His large watch drew her attention to his wrist,
the fine dark hairs that grew there.
That
hand had touched her last night. It had slid along her thigh with smooth,
calculated precision, sending every nerve ending screaming with delight.
“Our
human resources manager should be here any minute. Once she arrives, then we
can begin discussions,” he explained.
Ella
nodded, her gaze locked on his hand. The tip of his fingers did a slow glide.
Down, then up, his fingers bent at the knuckles before they slid down again.
Almost as if he was caressing the table, she couldn’t help but imagine those
long, elegant fingers traveling along her bare skin, tracing a pattern around
her nipple before they slipped down her belly, to finally stroke between her
legs...
Want
more? You know you do!

card!

Worth the Challenge
Together, they’re magic. Now to capture it in a bottle…
Worth It, Book 3
For once in his errant life, Rhett Worth is ready to prove
to his older brothers he’s more than good looks and a woman-melting smile.
Except he’s screwed up. And it’s about to hit the fan as he prepares to tell
them he’s failed to deliver the master perfumer, Michel Durand, to create Worth
Luxury’s signature scent.
Then salvation walks through the boardroom door, all wrapped
up in a petite, seductive package.
Gabriella Durand is prepared to beg the Worths to give her
capricious father another chance. Instead, she finds the devastatingly handsome
Rhett Worth offering it to her as if he’d planned it all along. And Gabriella,
hungry to emerge from her father’s shadow, jumps at it.
Soon they’re in Maui to hunt for the perfect scent…and find
it in the tropical breeze that washes across their entwined bodies. Now the
pressure is on to capture that passion in a bottle—before they let love
complicate the delicate mix. Before a whiff of betrayal threatens to destroy
everything.
