The Great Pick Up Line featuring
Home Truths by Louise Forster
‘Thank you,’ she smiled up at him. ‘I thought opening doors for women was a lost art.’
‘You have met my grandmother?’ The beginnings of a smile tipped the corners of his mouth.
‘I get your point.’ Jennifer pulled the key from her back pocket. ‘Thanks for driving me home,’ she said, facing the door. ‘I’d ask you in but…’
His broad hands gently squeezed her shoulders. Calum turned her to face him.
Oh my, he’s going to, isn’t he…again. Her heart thudded. The hot, intense, slightly mystified look he gave her, as if she’d been missing all his life and now here she was, melted Jennifer’s bones. He drew her in closer until they were almost touching. His eyes locked with hers. Then she felt the warmth of his big, strong hands slowly caress all the way up her neck to gently hold her face. God, kiss me quick before I die.
He dipped his head. His lips brushed hers. ‘I’m going to kiss you again, Jennifer. Any objections, take it up with me tomorrow… over breakfast.’
Home Truths
by Louise Forster
A small-town romance about secrets, community and the family we make for ourselves.
London-based chef Jennifer Dove loves her exciting, fast-paced life and she has every intention of returning to it ASAP. This trip to Tumble Creek — middle-of-nowhere Australia — is just a blip, a trip out of time, to visit her sister and niece and farewell her beloved Uncle.
But barely hours into her stay, she disturbs an intruder in her uncle’s house, is questioned by police, and finds a pair of fluffy pink stilettos in the bedroom. Things are not all they seem in Tumble Creek, and much as she tries not to, Jennifer is sucked in to the mystery surrounding her uncle. Who is his girlfriend Veronica, and why is she not here? What are the locals hiding? And why can she not get sexy local Calum McGregor out of her mind?
All is not what it seems in this sleepy, small town, and as Jennifer unravels its mysteries, she might just be tying herself to Tumble Creek forever.
