A Song for Sophie
by Mackenzie Crowne
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Jobless, practically homeless, and tired of being manless, Sophie Taylor jumps at the chance to be Beaumont Walker's personal assistant. Six weeks on the road with country music's bad boy--and, more importantly, his all-male crew--is the perfect opportunity to change her life.
Beau Walker doesn't need any more distractions. Sophie, with her butt-ugly suits and balls-to-the-wall attitude, shouldn't be one, but she proves to be distracting and more--even, surprisingly, a friend. So when he discovers her plan to snag a man from his worldly wise crew, he's determined to protect her from herself.
When Sophie realizes Beau is behind her failure to attract even one member of his crew, the last place she expects to find herself is in his bed. But will one night of passion convince her she's woman enough for him? Or will it destroy their friendship and his budding belief in true love?

EXCERPT
“Sophie, I’d like you to meet my
mother, Savanna Beaumont. Ladies, this is Sophie.”
That’s it? No explanation for her
intrusion into their luncheon date. No qualifying her position as an employee.
She considered kicking him under the table. Running interference indeed. Hah!
As if any of these stunning women would consider her presence at the table any
kind of competition for Beau’s attention.
She did her best to ignore the
arm he slung over the back of her chair and smiled at his mother. “Miss
Beaumont. It’s a pleasure to meet you. I’m a big fan.”
Savanna’s bemused gaze flicked to
Beau, before her eyes cleared. She returned Sophie’s smile. “It’s always lovely
to meet a fan. How do you know my Beau?”
His fingers tugged a gentle warning
on her braid, and he spoke before she could answer.
“She’s from Cholla Springs,
Savanna. A history teacher at the high school.”
Sophie sent him a sidelong
glance. “Actually, I was a teacher in Cholla Springs.” She jumped when his
booted foot connected with her ankle. Oh, no he didn’t! She didn’t look his
way, simply kicked him back, hard, and was pleased at his muffled grunt. “But,”
she continued, “because of recent budget cuts, I’ve recently taken a new
position.”
She turned to him then, thinning
her lips and narrowing her eyes in a scowl designed to let him know he was
going to owe her—and owe her big.

AUTHOR Bio and
Links:
I'm a wife, mother, and grandmother (a really young one). My husband and
I were blessed with two rambunctious little boys who we managed to raise into
wonderful men without any disfiguring mishaps. Dirt bikes and ESPN are the
order around our house, and life at the 'Testosterone Ranch' more closely resembles
one of today's wacky reality shows, than yesterday's 'Leave It To Beaver'.
I'm one of eight kids, raised just north of Boston. I moved to Phoenix
as an adult because living in the southwest feeds my soul. My childhood was a
free-for-all, chock full of laughter, love, family and friends. I was raised on
the concept that a stranger is just one conversation away from being a friend
and I'm happy to say, that experience remains true today.
My love of books, specifically the romance genre, has been a lifelong
affair, both as a reader and a writer. A bout with breast cancer sharpened my
resolve to see my stories shared with others. Today, I am a five-year survivor,
living my dream.
My friends call me Mac. I hope you will too.

Congratulations, Erin, and thank you for your comment at Queen of the Night Reviews. The 15 romance E-book bundle is coming your way. Enjoy!
