Dakota Rebel, Hello

This morning we’ve got another sneak peek at a steamy new book.

*****

Hello

Hello

by Dakota Rebel

M/F Erotic Romance

Synopsis:

Diane is a professional party planner for a high end fashion magazine. Her life so far has been a series of dating mistakes. Not to mention loneliness.

But when a mysterious stranger begins to call her and convinces her that what her love life needs is a

little spark…and some dirty talk, Diane realizes that there really is more to life than just work. And much more to a telephone than just setting appointments.

Excerpt:

“Open the box,” Becky said excitedly.

“Here?” I asked, my voice seeping with horror. “What if someone walks by?”

“Grow up. You’re an adult. You can have—”

“A big ol’ box of dildos?” I asked. “Is that what you were thinking? I’m thirty-six and if I want to carry around a box full of sex toys, that’s okay?”

“Well, when you say it like that, it just sounds weird.”

We burst into laughter which echoed throughout the car. This was why Becky was my best friend. She was the only person I could have had such a ridiculous conversation with.

“So who sent it?” Then she hit me on the shoulder. “You did have sex last night. I knew it. I can’t believe you lied to me. Who was it? Was it Riley?”

“Don’t be dense. If I’d had sex with Riley I would have been on the phone with you two seconds later bragging.” I rubbed my shoulder. “And I didn’t lie to you. I didn’t have sex with anyone last night. Not really.”

“Aha,” she yelled. “Wait. What do you mean not really?”

“I’m starving,  where do you want to eat?”

“Let’s go to Scores. It’s loud and no one will be able to overhear you telling me about your night.”

She took the box off my lap so I could drive. I pulled out of the garage and headed for the bar. Scores was a great idea. I needed a drink. Badly.

“Wow, Di. I had no idea you were into this stuff. I can’t believe there is anything about you I didn’t know. I’m kind of hurt.”

“I’m not into this stuff. I have never even seen this kind of crap before.”

“Right,” she said. “But you walked in this morning looking like the cat’s meow and then you get a big box of…it. I want to know what’s going on.”

“And I’ll tell you,.” I pulled into a spot in front of the bar and turned the car off. “But first, I need a big stiff drink.”

“If you want big and stiff check this out.”

I didn’t want to, but I looked at Becky to see that she was holding a huge black vibrator in her hand. She pressed the “on” button and it shook so hard I could see it moving her arm.

“Fuck. Turn it off and tape that box back up right now!”

“I could put this under the baby’s mattress, and I’ll bet he would sleep through the night for a change. It would be like one of those vibrating bouncers I saw at the store last week. Can I have it?”

“No.” I grabbed it out of her hand and shoved it back in the box.

“Greedy bitch,” she said, pretending to sound hurt. “You have a whole box of them.”

“I’m glad you are so amused. Can we go in now?” I opened the door and stepped out, closing the door on any comments she might have added.

Full review at romanticread.com 🔥COVER REVEAL & PRE-ORDER ANNOUNCEMENT🔥 "From their Hallmark Channel worthy meet-cute to Holly finally finding herself, it’s just so sweet." Full review at romanticread.com "So emotional and with characters that captured me from the first page."

"There’s a reason Piper Rayne is on my must read list and it shows from start to finish here. So much of the feels (heartache and sweet moments alike), steaminess, humor, and love from family, both born & found."
