Undertaking Love (34 page)
Authors: Kat French
He dipped his dark head to place a kiss on her tender skin with infinite care.
When he straightened, the laughter in his eyes had been replaced with a fierce, burning look of love. She wound her arms around him and breathed him in; delicious and familiar and all hers.
He hitched her up onto the bed and glanced over his shoulder.
‘Do you reckon there’s a lock on that door?’
THE END
To the whole Authonomy community for your kind words and support, especially the fabulous chick-lit girls.
To the minxes, my superstar writing sisters, for not flinching when I said I was going to try something different, and for having my back all along. You girls rock.
To the beautiful bob girls for your friendship and encouragement. You’re a lovely, lovely bunch of ladies.
To Scott Pack, Rachel Faulkner and all at HarperCollins for making my dream come true. Special thanks to Rachel for holding my hand through my first experience of the publishing industry, for always having time and patience with my endless questions, and for wonderful editing.
To my old and new friends on Twitter and Facebook, for making me laugh, keeping me sane and helping to spread the word.
To my wonderful family for being unstintingly interested, encouraging and proud, even when I seemed to have no news to report!
To my boys, for being the best kind of distractions.
And last but never least, to James, for believing in me even when I didn't, for supplying endless cups of coffee, and for allowing me the occasional diva strop without divorcing me. I thank my lucky stars.
Kat French lives in England with her husband, children and the world’s oldest cat. She also writes erotic fiction under the name Kitty French.
