Excerpt
The vision struck Trenton Dane as he stooped over a drinking fountain to relieve the parching effects of the August Southern California sun. For that was what he considered an encounter with a beautiful woman. Perhaps it was overly poetic, he thought, but as an artist he was required to stop and revel in the study of beauty wherever and whenever it appeared.
An acting career had afforded him vast opportunity in this regard, surrounding him with Hollywood's most stunning examples of beauty. As such, his most recent studies had been conducted in the arms of model-turned-actress Giselle Roberts. Though he could not honestly say the vision now in his sights possessed the svelte, star-quality perfection of Tinsel Town's bevy, the jolt her approach caused him was enough to send a gurgling stream of water straight up his nose. And that, he reasoned, had to mean something.
A whiff of breeze fanned droplets of water on his face, providing a moment of cool relief. The sandstone building in front of him radiated intense heat, wilting the numerous visitors lined up outside. Widely spaced overhead beams offered scant protection.
If this place insists on baking people in an outdoor oven, he thought, they should at least put in a misting system.
His attention returned to the attractive woman as he dried the dark sunglasses worn to conceal his identity. Rubbing the lenses absently on his jeans, he catalogued likely reasons for his reaction. She was not beautiful in the classic Hollywood sense, but a head-turner nonetheless. She was maybe chin height to his six feet, the virtual waterfall of hair cascading to her waist similar to the color of the custom paint job on his Porsche. Caramel Apple, they'd called it. A lacy knit top and snug denims--with tantalizing lace inserts exposing patches of newly tanned skin--revealed a rounded, voluptuous array of curves quite unlike the near-anorexic condition Giselle maintained to beg the camera's favor. Perhaps most striking, however, was the way this woman carried herself with an ethereal quality he admitted was only in part due to being backlit and glowing from the late afternoon sun. Her almost-angular face wore an expression of ease with the world around her, and faceted emerald eyes seemed privy to some secret that prickled the edges of his curiosity.
The vision floated by without noticing him. He was returning his sunglasses to their proper perch when his cell phone chirped.
