2006 Fruity Awards finalist! Book One of the Dareville Series.
Dare you let the truth get in the way of love? Rock and roll legend Brady Garriston is in a slump, careerwise and in his love life. He is desperate for a comeback (and a "cum" back), and finds a possible solution in masquerading in small town Dareville, where he can clear the slate and start fresh. Brady finds his muse in the lovely and uninhibited school teacher Ellie Shaw, and soon the two are making more than just beautiful music together. But will Brady's deception bring on a sour note to their relationship? And what of the secret Ellie is keeping from Brady?
Excerpt
“Hello?”
“What are you wearing?”
“Who is this?”
“You got on those black bikini panties I like so much? The ones you were wearing at the Tavern when I dropped my fork and had to go under the table to get it?”
“What the fuck—Brady?”
“Nice to know you’re not screening all your calls.”
“This connection is terrible. Are you still in Europe?”
“I’m in a cab, heading home. I got in an hour ago, not counting what I spent in line getting through customs.”
“Yeah? Well, welcome home. Did you have a good time?”
“Yeah, I did. Would’ve enjoyed it more if I had some company.”
“Brady, don’t—”
“Claire. Come on. You know, I was kind of hoping for a warmer welcome than this.”
“Brady. Jeez, you know everything I had to say I said before you took off.”
“And nothing’s changed? Absence hasn’t made the heart grow fonder?”
“Nothing’s changed. I’m sorry.”
