Can passion in paradise become a forever love?
Sasha Winters has it all planned. She’ll spend two days—exactly forty-eight hours—in the Bahamas for her sister’s wedding. Then it’s back to her hectic life as a lawyer on the fast track to partner. But when a storm strands her on an exotic island, Sasha’s suddenly giving in to her sensual side and making moonlit magic with Vince Sullivan, a man she barely knows.
The groom’s best man, Vince, hasn’t given up on finding that special someone. It could be Sasha—if she’d allow herself to feel the full force of their chemistry. Determined to liberate the passionate woman behind the workaholic Atlanta attorney, Vince storms every last one of Sasha’s defenses. Yet can their growing love survive, even as a crisis forces Sasha to choose between her lifelong ambitions and a lifetime of love?
“You are…something else.” Sasha smiled and shook her head, finding herself more engaged than she wanted to be.
She raised her glass to alert Jake that she needed another Brown Russian. Before long she’d polished off three. Suddenly Vince’s jokes became outrageously funny, and Sasha laughed long and hard—and loud. Vince pulled his chair around closer to Sasha, until she could feel his breath on her neck. His cologne crept its way into her nostrils.
“You smell wonderful,” she whispered.
His lips pressed themselves against hers, and his tongue teased the inside of her mouth. Whatever good sense she had was out the window as Vince took her to a new level of delight. His huge hand palmed her head and pulled her closer, and she wondered what that hand would feel like on her breast and even between her thighs. It had been a very long time since she’d even been kissed by a man. With his gentle touch, Vince had awakened every sensation in her, and she got lost in the moment. She simply got lost.

Dear Reader,
Thank you for picking up Tropical Fantasy. As always, I appreciate your support.
Hopefully you will live vicariously through the lives of Sasha and Vince as they discover one another in the beautiful Bahamas. Sasha’s a workaholic and is tough as nails, no doubt, but underneath that exterior she’s vulnerable, as many of us are. She’s convinced that she doesn’t need a man—she simply needs her career. Making partner is the one thing that matters in her world, and there’s no room for anything else. Vince is the perfect hero—the man’s man. His charm will make your stomach tingle and your toes curl. And when you read the love scenes, you’ll wish you were on Paradise Island with the two of them. Neither of them is perfect, yet by the story’s end, they find that they’re perfect for each other.
I hope that Tropical Fantasy will take you to places that you’ve never been before. It certainly took me to new heights in my writing process. My characters are always flawed, because people in general are flawed: there are no perfect people. That was the easy part. And I’ve always written about love. But the challenge in writing romance (for me) was taking sensuality to new levels—building characters that are comfortable in their sexual skin. If you’ve read any of my other books, you know that I’ve always held back, given just a little bit to be desired. Oh, but not this time. Tropical Fantasy will have you on the edge of your seats with every kiss, every whisper, every lovemaking scene.
I would love to hear from you! Visit my website at www.monicamckayhan.com and reach out to me. I also have a Facebook page and a MySpace page, and you can follow me on Twitter. Let me know what’s on your mind.
My best to you always,
Monica McKayhan
God is the source of my talent and blessings.
My husband, Mark, makes sure that I have a comfortable environment in which to create my stories. My family is my backbone and motivation. Without the support from you guys, I wouldn’t be able to do this. I love you!
This is for you, Granny. I miss you, but I’m glad that you left me so many little pieces of you. My life is so rich
because you were here.
