Bewitched
by Nancy Fraser
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Vintage (1960s) Historical
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Chicago,
Fall 1964
Allison
Stiles is the epitome of responsibility. Guardian to her two rambunctious
younger brothers, she also runs a home daycare. While she doesn't have time for
a vacation, she really needs a diversion.
Enter Eric Thomas, her new neighbor. Tall, dark and handsome and just what she needs to get her mind off her responsibilities, even if only for a short time.
Moving into the house he inherited from his uncle was not part of Eric Thomas' plan. Yet, starting a new business ties up a good portion of his capital, so he forgoes the fancy downtown apartment for the quaint Rogers Park neighborhood.
Now if he could just get his mind off his sexy neighbor and back on the business at hand.

EXCERPT THREE:
Eric
shifted from one foot to the other, balancing the box of office supplies he’d
purchased on his hip while lifting the grocery bag from the trunk with his
opposite hand.
He’d
spent the morning touring office space in midtown Chicago and still not found
anything within their price range. It looked as if the Thomas-Watson Agency
would have to flourish a bit longer in its makeshift digs.
Thank
heaven courting clients could be done in a restaurant, or the client’s office,
rather than in the cramped confines of his back room.
A
noise drew his attention from his office-hunting dilemma and toward the daycare
across the street. The petite blonde was leading a line of small children
through a maze of toys.
Her
long hair blew across her cheeks with each gust of wind, and she reached up to
brush the errant strands off her face. His body tightened when he imagined her
fingertips stroking his cheek in the same way.
He
shook his head, dislodging the thought. The last thing he needed was the complication
of a woman. Especially one who came saddled with a bunch of noisy kids.
Yeah,
but they do eventually go home, you know.
Rather
than acknowledge his inner voice of reason, he shifted his gaze and scanned the
rest of the daycare’s large yard. Another woman, taller, thinner, with jet
black hair was organizing a game of tag among a few of the older children.
And
despite the noisy diversion of their laughter, his attention was drawn back to
the blonde. All around her, activity had stopped. Three little girls sat in
silence at her feet.
She’d
taken a seat on the front steps and lifted one of the smallest of the bunch
onto her lap. Even surrounded by a handful of children, her tapered slacks and
t-shirt covered in bright splashes of primary colors, she exuded an allure that
set his nerves on edge.
She
bent to listen to something the child was saying, and he found himself
straining to hear as well. The faint sound of the child’s cries drew her
obvious compassion, and she gathered the little boy to her chest.
Lucky
kid.
He
stomped up the porch stairs, cursing the fact he could be so easily distracted.
Mental note number three: stop ogling your sexy neighbor.

AUTHOR BIO:
Like
most authors, Nancy Fraser began writing at an early age, usually on the walls
and with crayons or, heaven forbid, permanent markers. Her love of writing
often made her the English teacher’s pet, which, of course, resulted in a whole
lot of teasing. Still, it was worth it.
Published
in multiple genres, Nancy currently writes for four publishers. She has
published twenty-two books in both full-length and novella format. Nancy will
release her 25th book in early 2017. She is currently working on a Valentine’s
Day novella, her next Rock and Roll novella, and a story about a racy Scot
titled “Kilty Pleasures”.
When
not writing (which is almost never), Nancy dotes on her five wonderful
grandchildren and looks forward to traveling and reading when time permits.
Nancy lives in Atlantic Canada where she enjoys the relaxed pace and colorful
people.
