Sex therapist Allie
Shelby has the professional credentials, but she could use a bit more practical
experience. Finding the right man to bring out her inner bad girl is tough in a
population-challenged Texas town. So when sinfully sexy Cameron Wright rolls
back into Shelbyville, Allie wastes no time inviting him to join her in some
hands-on research.
But while her personal
life heats up, Allie’s business is about to crash and burn. And she has to
convince Cameron that she’s one princess who’s not looking for a prince to ride
to her rescue.
Praise for Personal
Assets
"A hot man, a headstrong woman, and sizzling
chemistry set against a homey Texas backdrop--Browning's contemporary debut has
all the assets that count!"
--Ruthie Knox, USA Today
bestselling author of Flirting with Disaster
“Sinfully hot, sassy,
and laugh-out-loud hilarious—everything a southern romance should
be!”
–Macy Beckett, author of the
Sultry Springs series
******** EXCERPT ********
Allie
steadied her breathing and tightened her halter top’s tie to simulate
cleavage.
She
swung open the front door. Cameron, wearing a pair of starched khakis and a
light blue polo shirt stretched enticingly over his chest, leaned against her
porch rail. She glanced down at his feet and had to grin. His cowboy boots would
look more at home on a tractor than paired with date clothes.
He held
a handful of summer flowers in his calloused fist, and warm pleasure welled up
in her chest. “Princess, you can take the frog out of the pond,
but…”
“I was
thinking how much cuter you are than my first high school
date.”
“Well,
I can guarantee your daddy would’ve had a heart attack if he’d ever opened the
door to find me waiting on the porch for his teenaged
daughter.”
Would
her life be different now if she’d dated Cameron back then? She probably
wouldn’t have pursued her current career. Heck, she wouldn’t have needed to.
Dating the hottest boy at Shelbyville High would’ve given her sexual knowledge
and self-confidence to spare.
“And I
would’ve had a heart attack if fifteen-year-old Alice Ann Shelby had come to the
door wearing that scrap of a top, those sexy shoes, and a skirt that had a
teenaged boy’s hands itching to find out what was underneath
it.”
The
phantom sensation of his hands under her flirty full skirt trailed up the backs
of her thighs. Allie suppressed a shudder.
He was
going to play it that way, was he? She could handle a battle of sexual wills.
She was a sexually confident woman and he would not melt her into a puddle of
teenaged uncertainty.
Cameron
didn’t have to know it had taken a lot of courage for her to wear a flimsy
crocheted halter. Achilles had a bum heel and Allie had itty-bitty
titties.
