An Accidental Gentleman
by M.Q. Barber
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Erotic Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Fast forward never took so
long...
Kit Runyon isn’t looking for a man to keep—she’s happy with the occasional one-night stand and no strings. Making sure her family’s electronics repair shop is profitable enough to support three generations is her main focus. But when Brian Hendricks walks into the store, one look, one word, and she knows he’s not wired like any man she’s ever met before...
Brian’s attracted to Kit’s strength and no-nonsense attitude, but he’s tired of the one-and-done dating scene. He’s ready to settle down with the right woman, even if that means he’ll have to play things slow and stay out of her bed to show her there’s more to love than just mind-blowing sex. But at this rate he’s liable to short all the circuits...

EXCERPT TWO:
Gravel crunching under his tires, Brian pulled up
to the farmhouse and parked alongside Rob’s pickup and the SUV they’d gotten to
replace Nora’s beater. Fuck takeout. He’d run his ass off cramming best-man
duties in the narrow window between Christmas and New Year’s. A bachelor
deserved to dine off that apology at least through summer grilling season.
After Labor Day would be soon enough to call them square.
He took the porch steps in one leap. Rob understood
women. He’d landed Nora despite the awful introduction Lucas would never live
down. And Nora, she’d know why his nameless Amazon had rejected him. She’d
decipher woman-code, he’d track down said woman, and the date would be on.
The unlatched screen door invited him on inside. He
poked his head ’round the corner toward the kitchen as the screen snapped shut.
After eight. They might’ve eaten or be out back finishing up.
“Hey, Sherwood, Maid Marian, what’re you serving
tonight?” he yelled toward the stairs as he patrolled the empty first floor.
The dining room sported actual furniture instead of Rob’s piles of someday
projects. Living with a woman changed a man. “I come bearing no gifts.”
“Brian, I swear to—” Rob’s deep bark cut off, and
the peal of Nora’s laughter followed. “If you’re staying for dinner, grab a
beer and go the fuck outside for at least fifteen minutes.”
He slumped over the banister and howled his
laughter. Heading into month six and they still went at it like newlywed
rabbits. “You’re only giving her—”
“Make it thirty.” Nora shouted louder than her
husband. Bedsprings creaked.
He sucked back the laughs to get words out. “You
two trying for a baby up there?”

AUTHOR BIO:
M.Q. Barber likes to get lost in thought. She
writes things down so she can find herself again. Often found staring off into
space or frantically scratching words on sticky notes, M.Q. lives with one very
tolerant, easily amused husband and one very tolerant, easily amused puppy. She
has a soft spot for romances that explore the inner workings of the heart and
mind alongside all that steamy physical exertion. She loves memorable
characters, witty banter, and heartfelt emotion in any genre. The former
Midwestern gal is the author of the Neighborly Affection contemporary romance
series. Pick a safeword, grab a partner or two, and jump in.
