them,
and made Louise’s heart squeeze. “Try your whole life, princess,
and then some.”
“Then say the words,” she whispered. “It’s
not too soon. How could it ever been too soon between us?”
“I’m falling for you,” he said steadily.
“Falling hard.”
“Me too,” she admitted, her heart soaring.
“After just a week…it makes no sense.”
“It makes perfect sense. Say it back.”
Louise nodded and opened herself wide
up—feeling like it was the exact right thing to do. “I’m falling
for you too, Jude,” she said. “I have been since the very beginning
of your seven day seduction.”
“But I only needed five,” he laughed. “In
the end.”
“That you did.” She leaned on to her tiptoes
and placed a swift kiss against his lips. “That you did.”

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
As a kid Emma
wanted to be an astronaut, or maybe Captain Janeway. Because she
didn't really think her career choices through very well she ended
up in an everyday geek job, crunching numbers and sighing over
syntax. It seemed a long way from the stars , and in an effort to escape Emma decided to get
serious about her other passion. Writing.
Several years later and
Emma has yet to walk on the moon or sit in the Captain's chair, but
she is still writing. She scribbles stories in all sorts of genres,
contemporary, paranormal, post-apocalyptic, historical, sci-fi...if
she hasn't tried it yet she will before long. The only common theme
is the romance. A hopeless romantic everything Emma writes has a
love story in there somewhere.
She lives on
the west coast of England with her very Greek husband and teenage
kiddos. Apart from all things geek reading is her main hobby, and
she likes nothing better than getting home from a hard day at work
and curling up with a book, though sometimes she gets home and
writes one instead.
