Book Tour: Running Away To Home

Today I'm pleased to host Rosemary Willhide with her new release, Running Away To Home. It's always nice to discover authors that are new to me, and I can't wait to learn more about this hot new book. There will be a tour-wide giveaway for a paperback copy of the book, and two eBook copies, so be sure to comment for a chance to win!
 
 
 
If home is where the heart is, Nia Kelly is screwed.
The twenty-four year old fitness instructor nearly faints when Hollywood heartthrob Derek Pierce comes to her spin class at an exclusive Las Vegas sports club.
There is an instant spark, an undeniable heat between them. But falling in love is not in her plan. Nia is a girl who sticks to the plan.
She moved to Las Vegas to escape her past, a past with secrets that still haunt her. A romantic entanglement with a celebrity like Derek will put both of them in danger.  She doesn’t know if she will ever be safe, ever be free.
Then he looks at her with those gorgeous blue eyes, and is impossible to resist. Her world flips upside down.
EXCERPT:
We laughed. Then Derek gave me a look that wasn’t so funny. It was a look of desire. It happened so fast. He offered me his hand. I met him halfway. He gathered me in his arms. His lips crushed mine. My body rippled and tingled. One arm cradled me and his other hand cupped my face and traveled to my neck.
Yes, it was fierce and passionate. I’ve never experienced a kiss this intense. The way his hungry tongue dove into my mouth as he eased me on my back.
Holy crap, I was at work! I jerked away, breathless. “What are you doing?”
 
“I believe I was kissing you.”
I stared at the floor. “Huh, um, I mean, why? Why were you kissing me?” 
With one finger, he tilted my head and our eyes met. “Nia, isn’t it obvious? You’re amazing. I can’t stop thinking about you.”
Did I hear him right? I jumped up and retreated. I leaned my back against the mirror in the front of room. I was as far away as I could get. “Look, I’m not even supposed to call you Derek, so I’m assuming kissing during class is frowned upon.”
He rose and stalked toward me like a lion, hunting prey. “I can’t explain it. I can’t get you out of my head. There’s something here.” The back of his hand brushed my cheek. I trembled under his touch. “You feel it too, don’t you?”
I whispered, “Yes.”
His mouth devoured me, my lips, my neck…my God! His rock hard body molded flush against me. This is exactly how I imagined it in my head. My pussy clenched in need. I wanted him to take me, but deep down, this was wrong. Before I lost control, I stopped. “I can’t. I can’t do this.”
“What’s wrong?”
“You have a girlfriend, don’t you?” He didn’t answer. “Don’t you have a girlfriend?”
He mumbled. “It’s complicated.”

Author Bio:

She’s been living in Las Vegas for over eighteen years with her husband Bill Johnson and rescued pooch Harley.
