Seducing the Doctor (At First Sight Book 4) Kindle Edition

Join the writers at #MFRWHooks  http://mfrwbookhooks.blogspot.com  here to find some great excerpts. Mine is a short contemporary romance Seducing the Doctor. She owns a house he wants. Convincing her to sell takes a twist and a change for a bachelor who has no desire for a committed relationship.

BLURB:
“You’re next.” 

Those words send Matt Blakefield fleeing his brother’s wedding. Marriage or even falling in love is the last of his desires. What he wants to learn is the identity of the owner of the house he wants to use as a make-over for the magazine he edits, Good Livin’. A fall rainstorm and a pine tree sends his motorcycle into a spin and into the arms of an old acquaintance, a girl he hurt in high school.

Cassie Moore has borrowed a cabin from one of her partners in a cardiology practice to come to terms with a broken engagement. The news came via an email. Her fiancée had married another woman just weeks before their scheduled marriage. The appearance of Matt at her door brings an old attraction into full bloom. She realizes love is lurking but he’s a player and she needs to forget the connection.

Is it possible that a weekend of love can become a lifetime? 



EXCERPT:


“You’re next.”
     Matt Blakefield choked on the piece of wedding cake he’d been about to swallow. “Not in a million years. Why don’t you pick on one of our unmarried friends like Tony or Jules?”
     “They aren’t here,” his sister Allie said.
     Matt’s gaze slid around the long table in the inn’s dining room spearing each couple with a glare. Friends and family had gathered to celebrate this morning’s wedding of his brother to the mother of his nine year old son.
     “I have a friend who you would like,” Allie said.
     Meg grinned. “She would be perfect.”
     Matt pretended to shoot his sisters. “No sale.” He dropped his napkin on the table.
     “Remember the curse.” Mark’s sly smile teased. “None of us has escaped. Maybe there’s a woman from your past you can’t forget.”
     Was there? Yes. But the reason he couldn’t forget her showed him in a bad way. Time to hit the road. With this decision made he wondered how he could flee before his sisters set up a date. As if in answer to his wishes his cell vibrated. Salvation.
     “Matt here. Sorry you missed the wedding…I’ll tell him.” He looked up. “Jules said congrats. Sorry he was on a hunt and couldn’t book a flight in time… So what did you learn?”
     His friend and investigator’s news was all Matt wanted to hear. “I’m on my way. Yes, today.”
     As if he’d stay here where plans he wanted no part of were being laid. He’d been present for the important event. He had no reason to linger and a huge need to escape. Although he wasn’t to meet Jules until Monday morning the opportunity was perfect.
     He rose. “Have to leave. Jules has info I need on this year’s makeover house.”
     “On the weekend?” His father, CEO of the Good Magazine Group and recently married to his teenage love arched an eyebrow.
     “Yeah, it’s the Smiton house. You know the one I’ve always been interested in. I want to use this as the project for converting a house from energy sucking to energy efficient. Jules has a line on the owner’s location. I want the contract signed so we can start work soon.” He didn’t mention how his mother had loved the house and talked about the mystery of the heir’s disappearance. There’d been no thought of the man’s death, just that he had gone to Europe to live.
     His father’s forehead wrinkled. “If there’s a problem, find another house. Who knows what condition the Smiton house is in. No one has lived there for more than twenty five years.”
     “I’ve checked. The house is solid.”
     “Find one with the owners in residence. They’ll appreciate the free upgrade.”

     Matt groaned. “And spend hours suggesting changes that won’t work or constantly complain about the inconvenience. Not on a bet.” Matt rose. Another thing he failed to mention was his plan to live in the house.
