CHANCE ENCOUNTER By : Martha O ’ Sullivan

The Plot : The last thing Delaney Richards was looking for at college roommate Lindsay Foster ’ s wedding was love . The long hours at the office were finally paying off ; she could all but feel the vice-presidency in her bones . And she was counting on this week in San Francisco to seal the deal . But first she had to get through the wedding — Delaney ’ s first since her own . Almost wedding , that is . You can ’ t have a wedding without a groom .
Mike Savoy hadn ’ t counted on seeing Delaney Richards again at his best friend ’ s wedding in Lake Tahoe , let alone find himself falling in love with her . Now he had to convince her that the feeling is mutual — and unfailing . But the past can be a killer . And when blackmail turns to ransom , Mike is the only one who can save her . To survive , Delaney must trust the heart that once betrayed her .
An Excerpt
Mike laid his lips on hers , tentatively at first , exploring , nibbling , waiting for her permission to take more . She returned the need , the rising passion , and surrendered to it . He latched his lips onto hers , nudging her mouth open and inching his tongue inside . She welcomed him , felt his building desire , and answered it with her own , found herself drowning in it . He left her mouth on saw-offed breaths and began kissing his way down her throat as their chests heaved against each other and their hearts pounded in unison . Suddenly he ripped his mouth away . “ Laney ,” he muttered , stepping back and glueing the palms of his hands to his knees . “ You have no idea how badly I want to take you back to my room .” He scanned the beach restlessly . “ Or improvise .” She did , actually . “ Mike —” “ I know . We can ’ t ,” he interrupted her . “ Not with those eyes .”
