Sweet Silken Bondage
by Bobbie Smith
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Historical Romance
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
Desperate
to escape an arranged marriage, Reina Alvarez needed a way out of California
fast, a way that would elude the ruggedly handsome and very determined bounty
hunter her father had sent after her. What better way to hide her voluptuous
curves than with a chaste nun's habit? But as the ties of love pulled her and
Clay Cordell closer together, chastity became the furthest thing from Reina's
mind and she wanted only to be bound to the sexy bounty hunter forever.
When
Clay got to New Orleans, he was almost fooled by Reina's virtuous act. However,
it was soon evident that the vixen who disguised herself as a nun, was no nun.
No nun could ever kiss so sweetly. The last thing Clay wanted to do was bring
Reina home to another man. Her raven tresses and fiery manner made him only
want to surrender himself to her...SWEET SILKEN BONDAGE.

Excerpt One:
Bounty-hunter Clay Cordell was worried as he returned to his
hotel room. Dev, his partner, had been arrested for a murder he hadn’t
committed, and he had to find a way to free him. Clay did not expect to find
anyone in his room, and he stopped just inside the doorway at the sight of Luis
Alvarez, standing so casually across the room from him.
“Alvarez… What the hell are you doing here?”
“Mr. Cordell,” Luis responded with a cool smile. “I’ve been
waiting to speak with you, and I was beginning to wonder if you were going to
return.”
“Really?” Clay couldn’t believe the gall of the man.
“I understand you and your partner ran into trouble with the
law last night.”
“What do you know about it?”
“Nothing, nothing at all,” he lied.
“Why are you here? What do you want?” Clay demanded,
resenting his intrusion and wanting to get rid of him.
“I’m here because I want to repeat my offer to you. I want
to hire you to find my daughter.”
“I told you before, I’m not interested.” Clay’s only concern
was saving Dev.
Luis smiled even wider. “But Mr. Cordell, I’ve raised my
offer again.”
“I’m not interested-not at any price.”
“Not even to save the life of your friend?”
Clay went completely still at the question. “What are you
talking about?”
“I’m talking about O’Keefe. I understand he’s been arrested
for murder. So, perhaps there’s something I can do to help you. I’m not without
influence here, you know.”
“Sorry, Alvarez, I’m not interested in bribing anyone. Dev’s
innocent, and all I have to do it prove it.”
“Who knows if your friend will stay alive long enough for
you to prove his innocence? I think it’s a fair exchange, don’t you? My
daughter returned for the life of your friend?”
Clay was trapped and he knew it. “What do you want me to
do?”
Luis smiled triumphantly. “I have a small portrait of my
Reina….”
