More Than a Fantasy

Buy More Than a Fantasy HERE!

By Sara Daniel 
Six months ago I heard about Decadent’s 1Night Stand series and went to check it out.  I was impressed with the number of titles and the authors who were part of the series. I read over the guidelines and knew immediately that I wanted to write a 1NS book.

Regina’s and Gabriel’s story came to me immediately and practically wrote itself.  I had so much fun writing their story that I knew this series was a perfect fit for me. Fortunately the wonderful editors at Decadent agreed!

Regina’s fantasies about her hot marketing assistant, Gabriel, are interfering with her focus at work. In desperation, she turns to Madame Eve to give her a one-night stand with a man who looks just like him. When the Gabriel arrives in her hotel room, she must choose between walking away and playing out her daydreams with the real thing. Their one night becomes a wrestling match for control as Regina strives to keep the upper hand. But Gabriel is just as determined to show her how to work together for business and for pleasure. As passion trumps protocol, their one night stand quickly becomes much more than a fantasy.

Regina had so many trust issues and needed to heal emotionally. She needed a man who would be patient with her and also loved her faults and all but was also strong enough not to let her push him around. By the time I finished writing this book, I’d fallen in love with the super sexy, strong yet sensitive Gabriel, along with Regina.

Excerpt:

The balcony door slid open. The trim, broad-shouldered backside of a man with Gabriel’s basic frame entered. He was dressed in jeans and a dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up his forearms. Her fingers tingled at the prospect of touching his hard, muscled body and claiming it for the night.

The man secured the glass door then rotated toward her. Backlit by the setting sun, he had the same profile as Gabriel. Perhaps his hair was a tad darker, but she could overlook that. The lack of dimples was more disappointing.

He strolled toward her, blocking the sunset and bringing his gorgeous blond curls into the full view of the overhead lights. A charismatic smile lit up his brown eyes, denting tiny grooves on each of his cheeks. “Regina.”

No. Not possible. Not funny, either. She hadn’t wanted the Gabriel. She wanted a fake, one with no career ambitions and a staggeringly low IQ. She’d spelled out her wants on the matchmaking form. “How did you get in here?”

“I checked in, same as you.”

Her mental agenda said she should be heavy petting her way to a blowjob. It did not include arguing semantics with her assistant or a potential sexual harassment suit.

She had to get him out of here before he ruined the match Madame Eve had set up. No matter how much the other guy looked like him, the more time she spent with Gabriel, the less she wanted anyone else in his place. “Where’s the man who’s supposed to be here?”

“I’m him.”

Desire hit her hard. Everything she wanted was in her reach. And as far away as ever.

  2. Love 1NS! Glad you got a book in the series. As for the man that tickles my fancy....as long as he doesn't really tickle me I'll be happy. But I do love a man he can make me laugh and laughs at my jokes...which tend to be really bad and really corny.

  3. I fancy a man who doesn't take himself too seriously. I'm adventurous (to an extent!) and love a man who's open to new adventures.

  7. Oh my gosh, you guys, I am such a slacker. I haven't picked a winner yet. Somebody needs to spank me...oh wait, that might be the subject of an entirely different fantasy! ;)

    Lisagkendall, you are my winner, but I need you to email me at sarashafer at rocketmail dot com because half your email address cut off.

    You guys are so awesome. Thanks for your patience. And especially, thanks for sharing your fantasies with me. <>
