BLURB -
MAKING IT GOOD ENOUGH – (Good Enough, Book 3) an erotic romance by Zara Stoneley
Two couples, turbulent pasts. Are they capable of loving and
trusting each other as much as they need to? Can they make it good enough to
last?
Holly is happy, or at least she thinks she is. Things
haven’t quite got to the ‘Holly and Dane together forever’ stage, but she had
thought they’d have got past the ‘honey, your ex is at the door’ stage. Until
the day his ex, Sally, arrives on the doorstep – intent on spilling secrets
from the past that could tear them apart.
Charlie’s got the girl he loved back. But this time can they
go all the way – if it means going back to the lifestyle that he ran away from?
Who will be walking up the aisle? Will any of them get their
happy ever after – or will an uninvited guest at the wedding ruin it all?
EXCERPT 1
I’d always thought of Charlie as my surfer dude, he had that lazy,
casual, ‘I’ll sort it later’ air about him, coupled with the type of blond good
looks that had girls falling at his feet. Slightly more ripped and he’d be
deadly, if he could be bothered. He put his hands behind his head and sprawled.
“She was about to invite the vicar, the bloody vicar.”
“Sorry, just remind me what we’re talking about.” I tried not to grin.
This was Charlie as wound up as he got, and I was starting to get just a hint
of an idea about why he’d left home years ago, and had been determined to buck
the trend and live his life how he wanted. Charlie might seem happy go lucky,
but underneath that boyish demeanour was a man you could only push so far. He
knew what he wanted, if he could be bothered to get it, and being organised
wasn’t it. His parents, I’d been told, owned half a county, and his mother was
used to organising. He’d left the fold in protest, and only gone back because
of Anna. And I suspect because he did actually love his family quite a lot.
“The engagement party. It’s supposed to be a bit of fun and any second
now she’ll be bringing in a boy band and some dancing geisha girls.”
“Now that could be fun.”
Charlie shook his head slowly and I could tell he was trying not to
grin. A startlingly clear mental picture of geisha girls and the vicar was
forming in my mind, and it was so not right it was embarrassing.
“Or the local hunt and the Master of Hounds.” I glanced back at Dane as
his deep voice entered the conversation. I couldn’t help but look at him,
whenever I had an excuse. He’d levered himself away from the door frame and
started to look interested.
“Oh shit, don’t.” Charlie rolled his eyes and I swore he shuddered.
“You could have the lot, horns, horses and hounds. A full fanfare.” He
was warming up to the subject, and I had this vivid image of a full hunt in red
coats, flying horses, hunting horns blaring out, hounds in full voice with
their tails in the air all stampeding straight through the middle of the wedding
reception. I squeezed my eyes shut to get rid of it, just as the master of the
hounds jumped over the five-tier-high wedding cake and a trailing hoof sent the
top tier into the crowd. Nobody had five tiers, did they? Not even Charlie’s
mum?
AUTHOR BIO – ZARA
STONELEY
I’ve been
writing stories for just about as long as I’ve been reading them – it’s
rumoured that I’m related to Elizabeth Gaskell, so maybe it’s in the genes!
I live in a
country cottage in the UK with a naughty mouse catching, curtain climbing cat,
my wonderful guitar playing, video making, Minecraft mad teenage son and a wine
drinking, sun loving, master chef in the making, sexy alpha hero.
I love my
family, sexy high heels, sunshine, wine, good food, cats, horses, dogs, music,
coffee, writing and reading - but not necessarily in that order! And I like my
heroes just how I like my coffee – hot, strong and moreish.
