Sex on the Beach

By Cherie Denis

Harry is jilted on national television on a dating game show and all he got out of the experience is a free trip to the Garden Isle of Kauai. Gee, thanks.

He is determined to make the best of things, even if it means camping out in the wilderness with a wild, wacky local guide until Harry meets Sally on the postcard perfect beach.

Despite his guarded heart he fell hard for the smoking hot beautiful creature on the white sandy beach. As Harry and Sally explore the island together, it's near impossible to keep her insatiable appetite for sexy adventures filled. The more time they spend together, the more his heart wants her as much as his cock. Yet when her employers return unexpectedly, her job is at risk.

Everything goes wrong in Harry's desperate attempt to keep her safe and protected, but he is determined that nothing can keep them apart. Even if his life is on the line.

Cherie Denis

Cherie was born with a book in her little hands. Just ask her mother how much she suffered giving birth. Over the years Cherie has never been far from a book or two or five - she's a firm believer in multitasking. She was a stay-at-home mom, a dental assistant, a pharmacy clerk, and seamstress. She also owned her own cake business, worked as a catering sales associate for two hotels, and was her husband’s secretary. Several years ago, her mother threw Cherie a challenge stating Cherie could write a better book than the one she’d just finished. Cherie took the challenge and ran with it. She’s on her nineteenth computer and still has a lot of stories left to write.

Sex on the Beach

Excerpt:

If he hadn’t seen the tiny strap at the top of her waist, he’d have thought she was nude.

Before he could say a word, she lifted her face and smiled up at him. Harry’s guts tied into a knot. She knocked the good sense right out of him. He smiled and cleared his throat. Um…Uh, he stuttered.

Hello, she said and his knees buckled.

He took a step forward and fell face first into a large, deep, rocky tidal pool. He panicked as he tried to stand up too quickly. Water sprayed her and he lost his footing again before his face went under. He rolled and tumbled before coming to the surface quickly, spluttering. God, what an ass. Could he be more of a dork?

Way to make a good first impression…

Her tinkling laughter rang in his ears.

What’s so funny? he asked before spitting dirty water on the sand.

She covered her mouth to stifle another giggle, You have seaweed on your head. Makes you look like you have puppy ears.

Harry reached up and removed the piece of seaweed but soon completely forgot about his accident. The tie on her top seemed to have become unraveled as she ran to help him.

Sally’s bikini top had fallen halfway off leaving her breasts completely exposed. Holy mackerel,

Praise for Cowboys Don’t Dance

Missy Lyons and Cherie Denis make a great writing duo. I hope they’ll write more together and I’ll be at the head of the line waiting for it. Cowboys Don’t Dance is a fantastic read!"-Dark Divas Reviews

Cowboys Don’t Dance is a fast paced erotic story. There is a bit of misunderstanding, hot dance moves and realization of mutual attraction. I found this writing duo could write a super steamy scene but at the same time still keep some humor going throughout the book. I will not hesitate to pick up another story written by this duo.-Joyfully Reviewed

Praise for Lynne’s Love Triangle

Even with sizzling sex, the emotional bonds between them is absolutely divine. So if you’re looking for a sizzling hot menage book with great emotional depth, Lynne’s Love Triangle is definitely for you! Another book added to my keeper’s list!"-Dark Diva Reviews

Dedication

Fear has been my worst obstacle to getting published. Fear of failure, fear of rejections, fear that settles in the pit of my stomach and doesn’t like to let loose its hold.

However the road I travelled was filled with friends and people who understood my fears and how to overcome them. I could not have done this alone. I needed my friends and my support system.

I can’t tell you how happy I am to have met my friend Cherie, and to become a writing partner with her. Thank you for your friendship, your advice and your patience.

Missy

I have to say a huge thank you to Missy for all her encouragement. Without her help, I’d still be writing and putting my books back on my shelves to linger. She is a wonderful partner.

Like Missy I’ve traveled many roads. Some full of tragedy and some filled with hope. Funny how all those roads finally lead to a career as an author.

I can never thank my darling husband enough for his love and support. He is my rock.

Cherie

Sex on the Beach

Chapter One

Welcome to the Romance Connection! Where love stories come true every day and dirty little secrets love to come out and play! The beautiful blonde game show hostess walked down the stairs pulling up the hem of her sequined dress so as not to trip on the flashy material. The camera loved her, but it didn’t do her justice. She was much more seductive in person with that low-cut neckline and engaging smile.

So, tonight we have Harrison Ford and his match Madeline Newton after their first date last night. The hostess tipped her microphone towards Harrison’s date sitting on the couch next to him. So, Madeline, how’d it go?

Oh, well you know how these things are. It takes time to really get to know a guy.

Harrison did his best to not grind his teeth. Last night had sucked as far as a first dates go. The woman had been ice cold to him all evening. She’d even ducked when he tried to kiss her goodnight. If this was the way things were going to be in the future, he was not looking forward to a trip with her to Hawaii. A whole week with her in the same hotel room would be torture. Personally, he’d rather get all his teeth pulled without pain killers. I guess it went okay, but I’m looking forward to learning more about Harrison on the islands.

Madeline turned and played along the row of his shirt buttons. Her deft fingers traced the line of buttons before lingering near his neck. Harrison wanted to push her hands away, but refrained. He knew she was just doing it for the cameras. This was the most she had touched him.

Ever.

Well that will be up to our bachelor as to whether you win the $50,000 and take the trip to Hawaii together or not. He could always go alone and meet his dream woman there. Did you have fun last night Harry?

He refrained from rolling his eyes, but it wasn’t easy. I guess.

He hadn’t had any fun, but he knew how this game worked. If he stayed with the girl chosen for him, together they could split the money and get to go on a vacation with each other, or he would get a consolation prize and go on the trip by himself.

Let’s play a clip back for our audience and see if he’s telling the whole story. The hostess smiled widely as if she knew a secret neither of them shared. The lights dimmed and a huge screen behind them began playing a clip of them having ice cream.

Harry shuddered. That was a particularly dreadful moment of their date he wished he could forget.

Yeah, he had tried to be smooth and put his arm around her shoulders in the ice cream parlor. He was only being a typical man, testing the waters.

She threw his arm off and snarled, What do you think you’re doing?

Damn.

The six foot tall television screen made every emotion on Harrison’s face evident. It was embarrassing to see the shock and hurt on his face when she rejected him. That was the moment he realized he was face to face with a true ice maiden.

His past experiences had taught him ice maidens were all the same. They were almost always drop-dead gorgeous. But, like a poisonous plant they were pretty to look at, and deadly to the touch.

He tried not to date women who were too gorgeous. The one time he had in college, she’d tried to use sex to get him to do what she wanted. It sucked to be used strictly for sex with no love attached. He wanted more in a woman than a sexy package.

Just trying to keep you warm. Harry watched himself shrug off the rejection on the big screen. He had tried not to show any emotion, but it stung then and it still did.

Yeah well, keep your hands to yourself next time, buster. Madeline then turned her head away and looked out the window, avoiding eye contact. She wasn’t interested in him.

Harry watched when her pretty pink tongue slipped between her lips to lick her cone. A sexy move that had left Harry feeling cold and lonely.

The rest of the night, he’d kept his hands to himself.

The screen blacked out and the lights suddenly became brighter.

Harry’s tummy did a flip-flop and he wanted to empty the contents of his stomach.

Looks to me like a fun time was had by all. The hostess remarked sarcastically. Turning toward the audience she remarked, Audience, get ready to make your vote but before you do, you need to know all the dirty little details. One of our contestants is not telling the whole story.

Harry had told everything to the producing execs. So it had to be Madeline who was hiding something. He crossed his arms and looked expectantly at her across the couch.

The hostess grinned and looked straight at Madeline. Come on, sweetheart. Is there something you want to share with us?

No. I like Harry. It just takes me a while to warm up. That’s all. She smiled brightly and shifted in her seat. The move raised Madeline’s mini skirt an inch higher giving the camera, and audience, a nice view of her smooth right thigh. I can’t wait to go for walks along the beach in the moonlight with my new honeybunch. He’s so sweet. How could I resist him? Madeline gave the audience a huge smile, flashing her straight, bright white teeth.

You might want to tell him about your other sweetheart? Or, did you plan on taking him along too?

Madeline’s face turned ghost white. What?

You know? The other guy. The one you were making out with just after your date with Harry?

Oh, no.

Oh, yes! The hostess’s face lit up with the secret finally revealed. Let’s roll the tape for our audience.

The lights dimmed again. Harry was relieved, because no one could see his reaction to the news. His belly clenched in pain as if he’d been hit in the gut by a baseball bat. No man wanted to be made a fool of—especially on national TV.

Yet, the huge screen showed him giving her an innocent kiss on the cheek at the end of the evening. Words rolled across the bottom of the screen telling the time and it wasn’t ten minutes later when another guy rolled up on a motorcycle. He flipped his long legs over the bike and met Madeline in the middle of the lawn where he picked her up.

His kiss wasn’t anywhere close to innocent. He deep throated her with his tongue and his hands went up her skirt. His mouth never left hers as he swung her up in his arms and strode into the house as if he owned it. There was no question what was going to happen after the door slammed shut.

The lights returned to normal and beat down on Harry. This time their heat made him perspire.

Madeline had been caught in the act. Her face was beet red, and Harry was sure it wasn’t from the lights.

I can explain, Harry. Madeline leaned forward to put a hand on his knee, but he pushed it away.

We certainly hope so. The hostess sneered. I’m dying to hear your explanation. It has to be interesting.

Aren’t you supposed to be single when you go on this show? Harry just couldn’t believe what he’d just witnessed.

Technically I am. He’s married to another woman. She looked at him with wide blue eyes. Harry almost felt sorry for her, but damn, how stupid did she think he was, not to mention the audience?

He shook his head and rolled his eyes.

Why the fuck had he agreed to go on this stupid show in the first place? It should
