Outback Affair
by Annie Seaton
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Jessica Trent wants to be a full-time
writer for Cuisine magazine, but in order to land the gig she has to snare a
one-on-one with the reclusive Alessandro Ricardo, a man hell-bent on staying
out of the limelight. The last thing she expects as she heads to Crocodile
Springs resort in northern Australia is to end up traveling across the Outback
with a rugged and far too sexy barramundi fisherman.
Ex lawyer Alex Richards protects his privacy and his heart in equal measure. So
when a Yankee bombshell in need of a ride turns up and threatens both, he
decides to teach her a lesson. As they make their way through the wild country
together, the attraction between them ignites. Alex must choose between his heart
or letting go of his past … and will Jessica understand why he lied once she
finds out who he really is?

EXCERPT:
“May I have the check-in form, please?”
She gasped as a large tanned hand whipped past her arm and
grabbed her keys. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” Jess tried to keep
her voice level as he dangled the keys rudely in front of her face.
“I’ll move the
car for you. Janet here will get you all checked in,” he said. “Which cabin,
Janet?” He turned to the woman behind the counter. “I may as well park it for
the sweet young lady.”
Jess was at a
loss for words. No way did she want this unkempt hulk knowing her room number.
“Last one on the left down by the boat ramp,” Janet called
after him as he strode to the door. “And watch out for the crocodile. There’s
been a biggie hanging around the ramp all day. The rain might get him
wandering.”
“Oh, and by the
way.” He paused in the doorway and looked back over one shoulder. “Don’t look
at me as though I’ve just crawled out of the slime. The back of your pretty
shirt is covered in grease.”
The door slammed shut behind him Jess looked up at the woman
behind the counter. “Are all Australian men so…so rude?”

Annie Seaton lives with her husband, and ‘Bob’ the dog and
two white cats in a house next to the beach on the east coast of Australia. She
sits in her writing chair, gazing at the ocean and writing stories. Their two children are grown and
married and she loves spending time gardening, walking on the beach and
spoiling her two grandchildren. She has always been fascinated by all things
romantic and has found her niche in life writing romance novels, ranging
through contemporary, historical, suspense and paranormal...but all with
romance of course.
Her love of reading and history began at an early age and
she was a child who always carried a book (or two) no matter what she was
doing. Several of her favourite books were confiscated from beneath her desk by
teachers who had no understanding of her capacity to read while she was doing
her schoolwork!
Her working life has seen her through several major career
changes and Annie has now retired from the world of full time work and has
fulfilled her lifelong dream of becoming a published author.
Annie’s debut full length novel, Holiday Affair, a
contemporary romance set in the South Pacific was released as part of Entangled
Publishing’s Indulgence line in March 2012 and has been a best seller on both
Amazon, and Barnes and Noble. The sequel Italian Affair was released in June
2013, and will be followed shortly by Outback Affair. Annie has more books
being released in 2013 and 2014 with Entangled Publishing in the Bliss,
Entangled Ignite and Covet imprints.
