#SexySnippets ISLAND BOUND #contemporary #multicultural #African #romance

Happy Sunday, everyone. Welcome back to the Sexy Snippets blog hop hosted by The Nuthouse Scribblers.

The idea is for writers to post a 7-sentence snippet from your work-in-progress or published work and share the post using the hashtag #sexysnippets. You are welcome to join in, just go to 
http://thenuthousescribblers.blogspot.co.uk/p/sexy-snippets.html to sign up for the next hop.

I've taken my snippet from my newly released contemporary romance novella,
Island Bound published by Decadent Publishing. You can read a longer excerpt here. I hope you enjoy it.

Island Bound
The sound of Christy’s faint sigh reached his ears before she spoke.
“Please, Joshua. Just tell me what you want.”
Her soft entreaty stopped him in his tracks.
“And don’t say come home. I’ll do anything but that.”
Joshua turned to face her. She bit her bottom lip again and darted her gaze away. He sensed her desperation, almost tasted it.
