Author’s Note
Lyrical Embrace was once part of a multi-author series with my former publisher, but since the rights reverted to me, it’s now book 2 in my own series,
Embracing You, which features each of the Haynes siblings. For years now, I’ve longed to give this book the makeover it deserves. From a new cover, a revised blurb, and a heavily edited interior, Erica and Dylan’s love story shines brighter than ever before. This is the version I’m truly proud of. I hope you enjoy it!
Blurb
A black eye. A broken-down car. A chance encounter that changes everything.
Out-of-work violinist Erica Timberly leaves her abusive boyfriend and flees the big city. After her car stalls in the middle of the night, she reluctantly accepts help from a passing stranger, only to realize he’s Dylan Haynes, the former drummer of her favorite indie rock band. Maybe, just maybe, her run of bad luck is finally turning around.
Dylan knows Erica is in trouble, and her black eye is only the first clue. Having traded the chaos of stardom for the calm of teaching music, he’s given up his playboy ways and wants something real. Sparks fly with Erica, but she’s one step away from hitting the road.
Will Erica listen to the music in her heart and trust Dylan, or will her past always threaten her future?
– Book 2 in the steamy, small town, contemporary romance series, Embracing You.
– This 36k word novella is a complete story with a HEA (happily ever after) ending.
– Second edition. Newly revised and edited.
Excerpt
Dylan deepened the kiss and lightly tugged on her bottom lip. Tears streaked his flushed cheeks as he smiled at her. “I’m so grateful I found you. I heard you screaming. When I saw that poor excuse of a man press a gun to your head, my heart nearly exploded. I thought I might lose you. I promise you, Erica, I will never control you as Phil did. You will always have the ability to choose. I just want to make you happy.”
“I know. You do make me happy. You took a bullet for me.” She pushed down a sob.
A blast of noise rent the air. Vivid, colorful fireworks filled the sky, visible in the alley from the narrow stretch of space between the buildings.
She dropped her gaze back to Dylan.
A grin spread across his face. “It’s been a wild Fourth of July. Why don’t we do something more low-key next year? How about no guns and crazy exes? Just us, the creek, and a bottle of wine. Clothing optional.”
She laughed softly, her tension easing. “That sounds perfect. Absolutely perfect.”
