Got Books? : Unconditional Love by Kelly Elliott Blog Tour

SYNOPSIS:

Lark Williams leads a fast-paced life, always on the edge of danger. Running from his past

and fighting to keep his present life a secret, he keeps his heart out of reach from love. The walls he built around himself come crumbling down when he meets Azurdee Emerson.

Azurdee lives a peaceful life in the small town of Wimberley, Texas. Her tame world quickly

becomes heated as she begins to fall in love with Lark. He’s everything she has vowed to stay away from—dark and mysterious, and not to mention, sexy as hell and full of secrets.

Just as Lark and Azurdee give in to their feelings of love, Lark’s present life threatens the

safety of the one person he would sacrifice his own happiness for. When Lark finds history repeating itself, he makes a decision that will forever change both of their lives, leaving one heartbroken and lost and the other fighting to survive.

EXCERPT:

“Azurdee? Honey, we have a slight problem and need you right away!”

Ari yelled from the front porch.

I gave Paul a weak smile and said, “I have to run but maybe I’ll talk to
you soon.” I quickly turned and headed toward Ari, who was standing there
giving me a shit-eating grin.

Ari was one of Jessie’s closest friends here in Mason, along with Ellie,
Heather, and Amanda. They were all friends but acted more like sisters. I
stopped right in front of her and asked, “How did you know I needed
rescuing?”

She gave me a Cheshire cat grin and said, “Please, bitch, I saw the way
you and Lark were dancing earlier. Too bad your date didn’t notice the
hotness between the two of you on the dance floor. I knew you were trying
to ditch the date and I was pretty sure when I saw him roll down that
window he was asking if you would like to meet for coffee sometime?”

I chuckled and said, “It was dinner.”

Ari rolled her eyes and said, “Stupid bastard must have been the only
one to not see you and Lark practically humping on the dance floor.”

“Oh my God, Ari! It wasn’t that bad…was it?”

She gave me an evil smile and said, “Let’s just say I’m wishing I would
have started a bet among the girls because I have a feeling someone is going
to be coming over to the…” Ari looked around and then looked back at me
and whispered, “My-cherry-was-popped side.”

My mouth dropped open and I stood there frozen. “I just don’t even
know what to say to that, Ari.”

“I get that a lot. Okay, just make sure the bastard gives you an orgasm
before he sticks his…”

I held up my hands and said, “Please stop! Really, I think I’m going to
be okay without your…tips.”

Ari laughed and said, “Okay, seriously though, it does help you relax.

Are you on the pill? Please tell me you are at least on the pill.”

My heart started pounding and my hands started sweating. “Um…yeah,
since college. Just to be safe. I dated a guy in college for a while and
thought he might be the one but turns out he was far from the one.”

Ari’s mouth dropped open. “You haven’t had a boyfriend since college?

My God Azurdee, do you just not like men?”

I laughed and pushed her back some. “Yes, bitch, I like men. I just
haven’t met a guy who did it for me. One that made me want to give myself
completely to him until…”

Ari wiggled her eyebrows up and down and said, “Mysterious and
handsome Lark Williams has though, hasn’t he?”

I let out a sigh and walked over to the porch swing and sat down.

“Oh my God, Ari. I don’t know what it is, but when I’m around him
my body just goes into overdrive and I have to do everything in my power
to keep from jumping him. It’s been like this from the beginning. I’ve
dreamt about him, I’ve thought about him while driving, working, out on
other dates. I cannot get him out of my head. He is my weakness.”

Ari sat down and gave me a weak smile. “Is it just a sexual thing? I
mean…do you have other feelings for him?”

I nodded my head. “No, it’s not just sexual. I mean, a big part of it is of
course, and the fact that I pretty much threw myself at him tonight has my
stomach dropping. But there’s more to it. When he enters a room, I swear I
have to take a deep breath. He brushes by me or touches me in the slightest
way and my stomach flips around like I’m on a damn thrill ride. His
eyes…oh my God. I get totally lost in them. I swear—if he had told me to
strip down and let him make love to me on the dance floor, I would have

done it.”
