The Brothers’ Band
by Liza Malloy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Romantic Fiction, Romantic Women’s Fiction

BLURB:
Bookworm
Lily Mitchell vowed never to date another musician, but Dylan Parker is nothing
like the stereotype. Sure, he’s mysterious and sexy, with a flashy car and
serious bedroom skills, but he’s also smart, hardworking, and humble. He shares
Lily’s passion for classic literature and constantly surprises her with
romantic gestures. Their steamy relationship moves at whirlwind pace, and Lily
has never been happier.
It’s
all so perfect that at first, Lily wills herself to ignore the emerging red
flags. As her worries about Dylan increase, she finds friendship and comfort in
his brother and bandmate, Thomas. But Lily soon discovers that as much as
Thomas cares for his brother, he’s also fallen hard for her.
As
Dylan spirals further out of control, Lily must decide what she really wants,
and whom she is willing to hurt.

EXCERPT ONE:
(From Chapter 1, 404 words)
My
favorite coffee shop was a block from the subway station, and as soon as I
reached the street level, I felt the rain. It fell in sheets, soaking
everything and everyone in its path. It was a quiet shower, not just in the way
it barely made a sound as it pelted the concrete and metal comprising Midtown
West Manhattan, but also as it seemed to mute the normal noises we New Yorkers
expected of our surroundings…the honking, the chatting, the clanking of
machinery.
I
smiled at the beauty of it, but once the first drop hit my hair, I shrieked and
ran as fast as my Louboutin heels could carry me. Traffic forced me to stop at
the next light, but I resumed my dash as soon as the intersection cleared,
weaving haphazardly amidst a crowd of people holding everything from newspapers
and briefcases over their heads. I was comforted only by the fact that clearly,
no one else had thought to bring an umbrella today either.
Finally,
with the coffee shop in sight, I smiled again, only to have the heel of my shoe
stick in a drainage grate.
I
grunted, apologized to the people whose path I was blocking, and tugged, but
the shoe stuck firmly. I needed a better angle to unwedge the shoe, and the
only way to achieve that would involve stepping out of the shoe and placing my
bare foot on the dirty sidewalk. Unable to stomach that option, I futilely
wrenched harder. My clothes and hair were already drenched, and the water
pooling around my forehead was starting to drip into my eyes and obscure my view
of the trapped shoe. My pride had taken a hit, but I had to retrieve my shoe
without harming it. Sure, it was last year’s design that I’d bought on sale,
but any Louboutin, even one on sale, was a chunk of change.
Suddenly,
the rain stopped. I glanced up, as though expecting to see that God himself had
performed this valued miracle, but instead, I simply saw an umbrella held
firmly over my head. A man, the bearer of the umbrella, crouched down beside
me.
“Let
me try,” he offered, in a dreamy British accent. With a quick twist of his
wrist, the shoe popped free. I stumbled backwards as the shoe came loose, and
the man steadied me gracefully, a quick “whoopsie daisy,” escaping his lips.
