Exclusive! First Teaser from The Weight of Words by Georgina Guthrie

I am so happy to be bringing you the first teaser from The Weight of Words by Georgina Guthrie…hereinafter referred to as GG….because that’s how I think of her, and it’s so much shorter

I was lucky enough to get to meet her when I went to Toronto in 2012. She’s an amazing writer and person, and I can’t wait til you have the chance to read the entire book which releases on November 26th. Until then…here’s a little teaser…

Daniel and I emerged into the underground lot. It was virtually deserted, just a few cars parked here and there. Daniel’s BMW was behind a pillar on the other side of the lot. As we walked, he placed his hand on my lower back. How I wished he could do that all the time.

“I really do appreciate this. I don’t think I’d make it back to Jackman with both of my feet intact if I had to walk all the way.”

“Not comfortable?” he asked, looking at my shoes.

“They’re killing me,” I said.

“That’s unfortunate. I was considering asking you not to take them off ever again. They’re incredibly sexy.”

After looking around cautiously, he led me behind the pillar and stepped toward me, effectively trapping me against the passenger side door of his car. He clasped both of my hands and brought one of them up to his lips, brushing my knuckles with a gentle kiss. My breath caught in my throat. He leaned toward me, his hips pushing me back into the car door.

Oh my God, what was he doing? There was nothing cautious or guarded in his movements. My pulse raced and I closed my eyes, dropping my head back. He let go of one of my hands and gently pulled my hair free of my ponytail, slipping the elastic hair tie in my pocket before pulling my hair around my face.

“God, you’re beautiful,” he breathed.

“Daniel, what are you doing?” I asked, licking my lips nervously.

“Do you want me to stop? Should I take you home right now?”

Did he really want an answer? Because there was no way in hell I was prepared to tell him to stop.
