About Love and Lingerie:
Everything is coming together for Harper Grayson. She has a
family she adores, a quaint little house that’s all hers, and a puppy to keep
her warm at night. Plus, her lingerie shop, Kiss Me Goodnight, is successful.
With her eyes now set on an expansion the moment the empty building next door
finally becomes available, things are finally aligning perfectly for Harper.
Until Latham Douglas walks through her door…
Latham Douglas has been back from a long stint in the Army
for mere days when he has his first run-in with a blast from his past. It’s a
pleasant surprise to find Harper Grayson selling sexy lingerie just down the
block from his family’s hardware store, but he won’t let the stunning woman he
remembers from school derail his plans. His business needs the empty building next door, and he’s willing to do just
about anything to secure it.
Harper and Latham have the same dream. What happens when
they realize they can’t both have what they want? Who will give, especially after
business turns to pleasure? Can they keep their hearts out of it, or will the
winner actually be the biggest loser of all?

Exclusive Excerpt:
My happy puppy greets
me as soon as I slip inside the house, the air conditioning a welcome reprieve
from the heat outside. I bend down and give her a quick pet behind the ears
before leading her to the back door. She runs off, anxious to do her business,
while I head back inside to take a quick shower.
I don’t wash my hair,
but shave and exfoliate all of the important areas. When I’m smooth and clean,
I jump out of the shower, anxious to head over to Latham’s. I smother lotion
over every square inch of my body, the rich scents of jasmine and vanilla
wrapping around me. I touch up my makeup, darkening my eyes in that sultry way
I used to do daily, but now save for special occasions.
Then, I head for my
dresser. I already know which one I want. After spending a few minutes with
Adrian and feeling the anticipation she was experiencing, I dig out my own
black bustier and matching thong set. Mine is an older style, though, with deep
red piping and a black lace overlay. Carefully, I snap the back and glance in
the mirror. It dips dangerously low, showcasing my cleavage and pushing my
breasts together magnificently. The lace thong is sexy, enticing, and bold.
Perfect.
I snap the garter belt
into place and roll on a pair of stockings. Then, I return to my closet and
find my dark blue sundress. It’s shorter than the others and will barely hide
the stockings that hit just above mid-thigh. It too will be perfect. Keeping my
hair up, I retwist it into a knot, letting only a few tendrils of hair hang
around my face.
Taking one last look
in the mirror, I slip on my too-high strappy sandals, swipe dark gloss over my
lips, and head out of my room. I make a quick pit stop at the back door and
call Snuggles. She’s not too happy to be coming in from outside, but when I
produce a treat from the cabinet, she hightails it out of her doghouse and
trots up the back steps like her tail is on fire. It wags furiously as she sits
like a good girl and shakes for her treat. After a few more minutes of
showering her with affection, I fill her food and water bowls, and make sure she’s
settled for the evening.
Then, I head back to
my car.
It’s only a few blocks
from downtown where my business is, and even though I try to keep the windows
open to enjoy the early evening breeze, it’s just too hot outside, or maybe I’m
a little too nervous. Too sweaty. So I roll up the windows and crank on the
air. As soon as I do, I hear a poof sound, and it’s suddenly raining.
Not liquid, though.
This is sparkly
particles of hell flying through the air and landing everywhere.
Everywhere.
Glitter.
So. Much. Glitter.
I stop at the stop
sign, spitting the sliver sparkles from my mouth and glance around. My entire
car is covered in it. My dress. My arms. My face.
Dirty rotten bastard,
son of the devil asshole jerk!
He’s. So. Fucking.
Dead.
