Book Description:
The Men of Machismo series revolves around nine friends who worked together in a male revue. Each book follows the life of a different former dancer seven years later. The Bad Decision Legacy is Will and Tonya’s story.
Tonya’s psychotic ex is stalking her. Not the best time to meet men, still her best friend begs her to show up for blind date dinner. Her plan includes the meet and greet, then heading home. Of course, she never expected a man who sent every hormone in her body into high alert. Will looked like her next bad decision.
Will’s work as a divorce lawyer included discouraging embittered women from ramming their soon to be exes with the car or setting fire to their husband’s latest girlfriend. No wonder he fell hard for Tonya. The first woman he met with no agenda, well almost none. It’s obvious Tonya is knee deep in trouble, but refuses to ask for help. Instead of running the other way, he contemplates dashing into the tornado she refers to as her life. With any luck, he might survive.

Excerpt:
Lynne
merely lifted an eyebrow as she opened the front door. Her friend waited for
them both to pass, before speaking.
Their
hostess babbled as entered. “Ah, well, we got the awkward introductions out of
the way. I forgot to mention to Tonya that Marc invited you. I forgot until you
arrived.” Lynne managed to deliver the words with a straight face, but winked in Tonya’s direction.
Tonya
sucked in her lips, controlling her laughter. Unfortunately, her friend would
never be a great actress. Her words sounded as stiff as any business owner who
attempted to make his own cut-rate commercial.
Tonya
excused herself by pointing in the direction of the bathroom, not trusting
herself to resist laughing. Lynne acknowledged her signal while guiding Will to
the family room, where mellow jazz music and glassware tinkling emanated. Marc
must already be making his special martinis. The memory of various drinks in
brilliant colors, with exotic names, made her regret her detour to the
bathroom. After shutting the door with a little more energy than needed, she
turned on the faucet full blast, covering her laughter.
Seriously,
did Lynne think she was fooling anyone? Did Will think she showed up on her
own, with no hint a single man might be the lure? A quick glance in the mirror
revealed a flushed face. It was hard to tell if it was from laughing or playing
her part in this farce. Dampening a washcloth, she patted her face. Thank
goodness, she hadn’t bothered with full makeup. Her goal was to look like she
hadn’t expected to encounter an eligible male. Well, she accomplished that all
right with her ponytail and jeans.
Nothing she could do about it now. She stuck
her tongue out at her mirrored image. Her goal was not to encourage the man, but to score a free meal. A small sigh
escaped as she turned the doorknob. Remembering the spark that zipped up her
arm when he touched her hand, the man had potential. Try not to think about it. The last thing she needed was the
emotional roller coaster that came with dating. She never managed to exit the
horror ride called Clint. It was still going, whether she wanted to be on it or
not. That would be a hard thing to explain in a budding relationship.
God, listen to me. Budding
relationship. Get a grip, chick. Michelle pointed out the man must be a mess if his own fiancée abandoned him to become
a man. Will would be smart to avoid me,
because I’m a train wreck in the making, with a full-time
stalker and the possibility of unemployment in the near future.
About the Author:
Morgan K Wyatt writes steamy romances with a side of laughter under the name of Morgan Kay. The wisecracking heroines and hunky heroes are similar to the ones in her mainstream novels, but in the Steamy Interludes series, the bedroom door is left open. Real life issues, humor, dogs are also staples in Morgan Kay romances.
