KNOCKOUT! The No
1 Kindle Bestseller from Emma Calin
Interpol cop,
Anna Leyton, spirals down into a hopeless vortex of sexual and emotional
turmoil as she fights to keep her professional cool. But who is deceiving who
in this fast moving ride across continents? What motivates the art loving
prize-bull of a lover Freddie La Salle?
An action-filled
pulse-pounding adventure novel. A tense and erotic romantic affair. Can a
relationship survive when it is founded on deceit? Can she prove her man is
innocent? Can she escape with her life and her love?
The power of
love and trust stands against greed and crime as conflicting forces grapple for
that KNOCKOUT punch.
Authors note:
This book is quite 'strongly flavoured' and features uninhibited, but
straightforward steamy sexual scenes between consenting adults and true-to-life
street language that would occur in high-stress situations.
Teaser Excerpt from
chapter 1 – The end of Anna’s first encounter with Freddie.
She
felt the sheer size and strength of him. Her composure wobbled on a knife-edge.
However she dressed it up, she wanted him, not that he was gonna get that
information. He had made no hard play for her. The most dangerous thing in a
crook is patience - she knew that. It was screaming at her.
The
doorman stepped out to hail a cab. Anna looked up and allowed herself to hold
his eyes for a little longer than was quite polite and edged towards brazen,
She felt a sweet tickle of excitement. A taxi pulled in.
“Well
- thanks for the drink - and the entertainment.”
Without
speaking he moved to face her and then lowered his chin to kiss one cheek and
then the other. The brush of his lips jolted her, sending a current sparking
and screaming down through her body, lighting up everything it touched.
“Forgive
me...” he began, obviously aware of her response, “these things are normal in France.”
Bloody
hell - did he think she didn’t know that? She watched his lips as he spoke,
longing that he would bring them back to her cheeks, to her lips, to anywhere!
God it had been so long...
“I’ll
call tomorrow - it has been lovely to meet you Anna.”
“I’ll
look forward to it Freddie,” she replied, hearing her own voice as if it
belonged to someone else.
He
turned back into the hotel and was gone. She leaned back in the taxi and let
out a deep lungful of air. Dear Lord - had she gone nuts? How it had felt
though - to be aware of a forgotten joy inside her.
