Sweet Sexy Sadie

BLURB:
From
the first time Sadie’s eyes met those of Brody McKenna in the hot Sierra Madre
Mountains, theirs was a potent attraction—not gentle, slow, and easy, but hot,
hard, and all-consuming. The daughter of a dysfunctional family, Sadie had
dreams no man could wrench from her with hot sex and an all-consuming passion.
She’d challenge this alpha male with all the strength she possessed. But her
red hair, fiery temperament, and indomitable spirit obsessed Brody...and he
knew he had to find a way to show her he was more than he appeared and convince
her to make a life with him.

Excerpt:
"You may
call me Nigan. I am the one who looks ahead." He spoke slowly, reverently.
"If you listen to the wind, it will tell you your future. The wind, sky
and earth will never lie to you if your heart is pure. Follow your heart and
you will find eternal happiness."
"I'm not
sure I understand," she said then strained to see if she could hear
anything.
"In time
you will." Then he turned to Brody. "Have you seen the devil
slayer?" "Now it is my turn to not understand," Brody said.
"He
rides alone on a black horse and he is dressed all in black. If you saw him,
you would
know. There is no mistaking him for anyone else." Nigan set his fork on
the table and once again looked to the sky as if seeking answers. "He is
like us but different. Know that he is a good man."
"Devil
slayer..." Brody pushed his hair from his eyes. "Can't say that I've
heard talk of anyone with that description."
"He
chases the demons of the night and sometimes the day. He has seen the
Chullachaqui and seeks him out. When he finds the Amazonian devil, he will slay
him." Nigan folded his hands in front of them. For a moment he looked down
as if praying then faced Brody once more.
"I might
have seen him our first night out. Sadie was resting and I walked a little ways
from the campfire. I thought I heard something. All I saw was a dark
silhouette. A coldness slithered inside of me."
"I could
have seen this Amazonian devil the night of the storm." Lyn gestured with
her fork. "A great bolt of lightening lit up the cave opening. Carr and I
saw a ghostly silhouette of a man. At the sight of this creature, cold sliced
through me like a knife."
"The
devil slayer. The legends abound. He is almost—what do you call them these
days—a super hero. You did not see the devil slayer, because if you did, you
would not have been chilled." Nigan said pushing back his long white hair.
He looked up, into the sun. "The heat feels good on my old bones. Why are
you here, child? Why did you travel to the Sierra Madres?"
Sadie cleared
her throat to speak. "I'm an anthropologist. My team and I are working on
material to apply for a grant. We do not agree. So we each went our separate
way to research individually."
"What
good will that do? Separation will not give you the answers you seek. People
must work together."
"We will
meet in the fall and discuss the possible projects." Sadie set her fork
down. Brody reached out and placed his hand on top of hers. The gesture warmed
her. She had felt the cold with the talk of the devil slayer and the
Chullachaqui.
"Then
you did not have a calling to these parts." Nigan stood. A deep frown grew
across his brow. "You are my great grandson's mate. He is the alpha male.
You must stay here."
"No,"
Sadie shook her head, clasping her fists tightly and withdrawing her hand from
Brody's. "I don't have to do anything. Mate?" She looked at Brody
whose head was downcast so she couldn't read his expression. Her heart raced
and nervous energy coursed through her as anger flared.
"You
must come to terms with your fate. Sooner or later you will have to."
Nigan continued standing, his hands folded in front of him.
"My fate
and my will are my own. I know who I am and what I want." She felt the
increasing rise of her temper. She did not mean to disrespect Brody's great
grandfather. But...
