Join us in celebrating the release of SWEET by Tammara Webber! Check out the excerpt and teasers below!
Synopsis:
He’s the love of her life, but he doesn’t know it.
She’s his one moment of sacrifice in a lifetime of survival.
He was damaged and wild, but resilient.
She’s always been obedient. Now she’s restless.
Home for the summer between college and med school, Pearl Torres Frank knows two things: Boyce Wynn is the embodiment of everything she should run from, and everything she wants to run to. Rebellious and loud. Unconcerned with society’s opinion of him. Passionate. Strong. Dangerous.
And one more trait he hides from everyone but her:
Sweet.
In four years, nothing had erased or even
dimmed my memories of Boyce. His kiss. His touch. The disorienting intensity of
his gaze. I was a different person now, and so was he, but apparently those
transformations didn’t matter to this thing I felt. For my heart, he was a
grounding wire, the needle of a compass, a gravitational pull.

Of all the possible scenarios I’d imagined
for this summer, living in a trailer with Boyce Wynn hadn’t been one of them. A
trailer that at the moment contained one bed. “I guess I’ll just sleep—”
“In my bed.”
The hand gesturing toward the living room
froze midair. I’ve heard people say My
heart stopped—which of course isn’t possible unless you’ve just died—but I now understood where the
perception might originate. “Uh.”
“I’ll take the sofa,” he said.
Embarrassment washed over me. He wasn’t
propositioning me. He was being courteous. I lowered my hand, half-convinced
I’d fallen into an alternate universe where my mother kicked me out of the
house and Boyce Wynn was proper. “You
don’t have to do that.”
He arched a brow, his eyes glowing with
mischief. “You want me to sleep with you?”
Or
not.

I'm a hopeful romantic who adores novels with happy endings, because there are enough sad endings in real life. Before writing full-time, I was an undergraduate academic advisor, economics tutor, planetarium office manager, radiology call center rep, and the palest person to ever work at a tanning salon. I married my high school sweetheart, and I'm Mom to three adult kids and four very immature cats.
