“You’re staring at me.”
“I know.” Now was the time. Now, before she wanted to start studying or drawing. Now before she enticed him into the bedroom for a long night of love play. “Kerry?”
She’d turned her eyes back to the screen. “Hmm?”
Rick closed the small distance between them on his knees. He could smell her lavender perfume and see the scar, less red and angry now, below her ear. “Kerry?”
She turned her head and her breath caught. “Rick?”
He fumbled in his pocket for the small jeweler’s box, which held his mother’s ring. Kerry had tears in her eyes by the time he presented it to her. “Kerry, will you marry me?”
She carefully took the ring from the box, wrapping her fingers around it tightly before throwing her arms around his neck and knocking him to the rug, so she could kiss him firmly, deeply. Breathlessly. “Yes, Rick, I will.”
The End
About the Author:
Shara began her writing life at the age of five, creating those little About Me books with the balloon on the back. She finally managed publication in high school, writing and editing the Entertainment Page in the school paper, and she toyed with the idea of being a rich and famous author.
Of course, there was a large period of time during which she planned to be an astronaut or rock star, whichever came first. But since neither of those careers panned out, she went to college in New York City to study film.
A fellow writer, who shall remain nameless, implored Shara to “come to the Dark Side,”—referring to writing romantica—so she did, and now she may never go back. She’s having too much fun writing the sexy, sinful stuff she loves to read. In fact, she’s pretty good at it, and the research is fantastic.
Oh, get your mind out of the gutter! Research, as in background for creating her authentic characters and settings. For example, Shara recently participated in her local Citizens’ Police Academy, and had a blast shooting things, meeting sexy SWAT guys, and riding around in cop cars during high speed chases. All in the name of research for her books, of course.
Shara lives in Richmond, Virginia—the setting for Enlightened Love—with her husband, son, and ancient cocker spaniel. When she’s not writing, she’s killing chile plants, setting fires in her oven, and avoiding housework at all costs.
