Before the Rain By JoAnne Kenrick
Before the Rain is book five in Fated
Desires’ multiple author series of stand-alone stories. In JoAnne’s addition to
this series, a sworn-off-love Southerner escapes her failing life in Georgia and flees to the UK for
a three month ‘no men allowed’ sabbatical where she unwittingly falls for the
rustic charm of Rose Farm and its Welsh owner.
Blurb
Three fiancés in three years
makes Zoe Chantilly’s relationship column for the Georgia Times her only
semblance of commitment…that is until her dating advice takes a dive down the Suwannee and she’s fired.
Unemployed and single, she
leaves the sweltering heat of the south and heads to the UKfor a man-free break from life. The
plan? Get with nature, write a novel, and be alone. Be very much alone. But
nature has other plans for Zoe.
Navigating the backcountry roads
of Wales seems just as complicated as her love life. A
near-collision hones her desires in on Dylan Mostyn, a Leo seething with a raw
prowess and macho magnetism the Aquarius in her can’t resist.
This Welshman is as arrogant as
he is gorgeous. He’s also her landlord. The undeniable and thunderous
attraction between them pinnacles during a karaoke duet at the village fete,
but what starts as a no-strings fling quickly spirals toward dangerous ground.

Excerpt:
Present
Day, August 1, 2015
“Dwi’n caru
ti,” he rasped in Welsh, rounding out his vowels and sharpening his Rs.
Uh-oh. Dylan
Mostyn only slipped into his native language around Zoe when he was horny.
He entwined
his fingers with hers, his gray stare fierce yet his touch gentle.
“Did you hear
me, Chantilly ?” he prodded, his voice low and
gruff with his own brand of rustic charm and raw macho energy. “Dwi’n caru
ti…I love you.”
Ah, heck, how
was she supposed to resist him now?
Like a
teenager about to get her first-ever kiss, she quivered, her knees knocking
together.
Damn him for
being so…so…so British. With his sexy accent and his Hugh Grant hair flop and
Gerald Butler’s down and dirty swoon factor. And his dimples. Gah. If
she wasn’t so weak-willed, she’d squeeze in one last wham-bam before heading
back to the States.
Who was she
kidding? A quickie wouldn’t sate her needs. Not anymore. What had Wales —what had Dylan—done to her? Love, a
four-letter word she dreaded. In all her thirty-one years, she hadn’t truly
loved anyone. Had she inadvertently fallen for him? Truly fallen for him? Like
head-over-ass and giddy-in-love fallen for him?
Impossible.
“You can’t
leave.” He edged her against the wall of the farm-style kitchen in the stone
cottage, his chest pressing against hers. “Not yet.”
“Umm.” Between
his hard body and a stone wall, Zoe dodged his lips by leaning to the left and
pointing to the whistling kettle atop the gas stovetop. His masculine scent
with subtle hints of amber and musk enveloped her and melted her a little more.
“Do you love me?”
