Beautiful, penniless American girl meets handsome, wealthy Scotsman.
Sounds like the beginning of a fairy-tale romance?
Itās not.
This story begins with a contract.
And an exchange of money.
A lot of money.
An angel perches nervously on one shoulder.
A devil lounges smugly on my other.
And even that dark little bastard is leery of what Iām doing.
Maxwell Hutcheson wants the girlfriend experience.
All of it.
And Iām going to give it to him.
Iām not supposed to enjoy being his whore.
Iām also not supposed to fall in love with him.
But I do. Both.
When our contract expires, I will walk away.
Because I have to.
But heāll always have a piece of me.
Iāll mask my sorrow with a smile.
Iāll hide my love with indifference
ā¦ all while itās killing me softly.
A fairy-tale romance.
It isnāt mine to have.
And this man Iāve come to love so dearly isnāt my happily ever after.
About Eighty-One Nights:
While the characters from Eighty-One Nights are entirely new, their storyline is a combination of fresh material and carefully selected themes, scenes, and settings from The Beauty Series, The Sin Trilogy, Dear Agony, and Indulge. This is intentional. I chose some of my favorite elements from previous releases and interjected them into Hutch and Louās story. Letās call it a āstory fusionā between our old favorites and new material. This work was briefly released under a pen name and was titled The Girlfriend Experience.
He slides closer and I twist so that Iām facing him. His eyes leave mine, moving lower, and he looks at my mouth. āYou have great lips.ā
āI like yours too.ā Theyāre so soft and full and framed perfectly by the scruff on his face.
āDo you always wear red lipstick?ā
I lick my lips. āI never wear red lipstick.ā
He touches his thumb to my bottom lip. āYouāre wearing it tonight. And you wore it the other nights that I saw you.ā He noticed and remembers.
āOnly because I thought that you might like it.ā
āI do like it. Itās sexy and it looks beautiful on you.ā
āThank you.ā
I lick my lips again and press them together, preparing for the kiss that could be coming.
Come on, Hutch. Kiss me. I want you to.
He leans closer and sucks my bottom lip into his mouth, gently tugging on it. Itās not one of those gross Iām-going-to eat-your-face-off kind of sucks. Itās a sexy kind of suck. The foreplay kind of suck.
His mouth opens, covering mine, and our tongues fall into a rhythmic wave. Itās a seductive swirl of soft, wet velvet and wine. And damn, I think that the wine tastes even sweeter on his tongue.
I push my fingers into the back of his hair, and everything moves faster. Our kiss is no longer slow and sweet. Itās carnal and demanding.
Pulling away, I pant for air, and his eyes connect with mine. āDo you want me to stop?ā
This relationship isnāt normal. It has its own set of rules and those donāt include the norm. Itās okay to have sex for fun and not for love. This has nothing to do with my stupid heart.
Placing my hands on each side of his face, I drag my fingertips through his facial scruff.
āDonāt stop.ā
An angel on one shoulder, a devil on the other. And even that dark bastard is asking me what the hell Iām doing.
āAre you sure?ā
Iām about to cross a line from which I can't return. āIām sure.ā
Hutch places his hands on top of mine and turns his face into my palm, kissing it through a wide smile. āNot here.ā
He gets up from the couch and takes my hands, pulling me to stand. With his hands holding mine, I follow him down the hallway to his bedroom.
Georgia resides in rural Mississippi with her wonderful husband, Jeff, and their two beautiful daughters. She spent fourteen years as a labor and delivery nurse before she decided to pursue her dream of becoming an author and hasnāt looked back yet.
When sheās not writing, sheās thinking about writing. When sheās being domestic, sheās listening to her music and visualizing scenes for her current work in progress. Every story coming from her always has a song to inspire it.
