How can a Crazy man proclaiming his from the future soften a woman’s heart? He must rely on Cupid to fix their mismatched relationship.
Fashion Designer, Kenya Whitaker is leery about the strange and terribly dressed man she meets...and she’s even more skeptical when he explains he’s from the future. She refuses to help, but the offbeat, sexy man charms her into it, and shows her what love is all about.
Eli’s very existence is threatened, and he needs Kenya’s assistance. The man she’s supposed to marry has locked Eli’s father in a mental institution. Joshua Montgomery must be released and put in his rightful spot as president of Montgomery Aisle. If Eli fails, he’ll not only lose Kenya, but life will cease to exist.

He turned toward Kenya and her gaze dropped to his chest. His opened shirt showed off the ripples of muscles on his hard chest and stomach. Eli’s skin looked naturally golden, and not a hair was visible.
Her mouth turned cotton dry, and she wished to hell he didn’t look so incredibly sexy right now. She forced her gaze to meet his eyes, reminding herself how angry she’d been. He smiled, and her traitorous heart began to melt.
“Hi,” Eli said. “I hope you like Fettuccine Alfredo and chicken.”
Her heart slipped another notch. He’s a cook, too?
She shook her head, trying to focus on her anger, but he dipped the spoon in the saucepan and brought it to her. Up this close, his spicy cologne warmed her insides and nearly made her knees buckle.
“Here, taste this and tell me what you think.”
Hypnotized, she kept her eyes on his and obediently opened her mouth. When he slipped the spoon inside, her heart took on a different rhythm. Her body turned gooey and moist, and it had nothing to do with the temperature in the room. The thermostat in her body grew steadily. Taking it slow, he pulled the spoon out, and with his finger, he wiped away a spot on her lips where the sauce had remained. He slipped his finger inside his mouth.
“Well? What do you think?” His voice was lower than it had been a moment ago.
I think I’d like to taste you, too.

Fallen Angels
5-ANGELS!! Crazy Love by C.H. Scott thrills and chills with a truly amazing plot and wonderfully realistic characters. Kenya is my favorite kind of heroine – sassy, sexy, and spicy – and she sails through an amazing amount of stunning revelations relatively unscathed. For such a smart girl, though, she is sort of naive. The plot of this book twists and turns, and you’ll be pleased with the author’s creative usage of timing and suspense. Excellent secondary characters really push this book along, contributing much to the story. You’d have to be nuts to pass up reading Crazy Love! ~~ Michelle / Fallen Angel Reviews
Coffee Time Romance
5-Cups of Coffee!! C. H. Scott writes a fast paced book that keeps the reader guessing. The relationship between Kenya and Eli is hot and heartbreaking. The suspense builds slowly and then takes the reader on a roller coaster ride until the climatic ending. Even if science fiction
books are not your cup of tea, read this book and you will be in for a pleasant surprise. I really enjoyed the book and had trouble putting it down, so I want to read more books by this author. ~~Candy, Coffee Time Romance

CRAZY LOVE opens with a fascinating bang. C.H. Scott has created two believable characters who will tug at your heartstrings. You will feel Kenya’s unhappiness and the tingle of the forbidden feelings she experiences when Eli walks into her life -- and then walks out. Eli is convincing as a time traveler from the start, and the only question I had in my mind was how the two lovebirds would come together in the end. An interesting twist to the story supplies the answer to this puzzle. One I was not quite expecting. Read CRAZY LOVE and you will find out what I mean.
CRAZY LOVE is an intriguing tale that will have readers sitting on the edge of their seats. The pages will fly as readers wait to find out if Eli will succeed in his mission to change the future of the world. Snatch up CRAZY LOVE.

| The cover art on this book cracked me up before I ever started reading, and the stories inside continue the fun with humor, emotions, and thrills of more than one kind. This excerpt from CRAZY LOVE is a fine example of the way these authors appeal to all the senses in these sexy, entertaining stories of how Cupid's arrows fly true no matter how crazy his aim may seem at first. |
