Captivated in Cancun, by KaLyn Cooper

I'd like to welcome KaLyn Cooper to my blog to tell you about her latest romantic suspense novel, Captivated in Cancun, the second book in her Cancun series. Here's what the book is about:

Blurb
In Cancun for a wedding is the perfect cover for Josh Madden, retired SEAL and n0w the director of anti-terrorism at Homeland Security. Intel believes Mexican human traffickers are smuggling terrorists into the USA on cruise ships. What he really wants to uncover are the repressed desires of the groom’s sister.
 
The discoveries Lilly made about herself after her recent divorce solidified her resolve to never allow a man to mold her into the woman he wants her to be. Focused on raising her two young boys, launching her family’s fledgling cruise line and rebuilding her self-esteem, she’s tempted when her brother’s former boss offers to make her bedroom fantasies come true.

When their worlds collide, Lilly needs a superhero. Will Josh choose the mission over a woman in trouble?

 
Excerpt
     Josh moved into her path.
     Mumbling, head down, Lilly ran straight into his chest…and froze. When she looked up, her eyes were wide, shocked to see him.
     Priceless. And so beautiful with the moon splashing light her high Mayan cheeks and eyes as dark as the sky above, glinting with the reflection of stars.
     “You heard me?” Her voice was quiet.
     “Yes, And your conversation with your ex. Hard to miss since you were in my arms.”
     Lilly dropped her forehead to his shoulder and buried her face. “I’m sorry you had to hear all that.”
     “I’m not. Your ex is an emotionally abusive ass, and you should be happy to be free of him.” Josh picked up her chin and brushed his lips over hers. “But I think you and I are looking for the same thing. I don’t do long term, and you already know I’m temporary, just what you’re looking for.”
     Josh leaned in, his lips right next to her ear, his hands in constant but slow motion. “Tell me what you want, Lilly. I’m very good at taking orders.”
     Gradually she turned her head so her warm moist lips were right next to his ear. “I want…” There was a long pause before she sighed. “I’m just not sure.” The insecurity in her voice snapped his resolve. He had to respect her wishes and would never force any woman to do anything she didn’t want to do. She wasn’t ready. At least not tonight.
     Josh brushed his thumbs over her freckled cheeks. “A few nights of pleasure…any way you want it…are yours.”

Just catching up with everything after traveling all weekend.

I'm so glad you enjoyed my books in this series.

I have a new series coming out this summer, Black Swan with five kick-ass female assassins trained secretly as SEALs/Special Forces/Special Operations, then by the CIA. But they work for Section 7 at Homeland Security. Wow, that's a lot of alphabet agencies. LOL.

Hope you are going to join me at the Facebook party Thursday.

I hope you enjoy it. This was a tough book to write because of the subject matter which is real. As you know, I take a great deal of time in my research so I can be accurate, but some of what I read tore me heart out.
