One legendary clan
International supermodel Natalie Stallion has come a long way from her humble Utah roots. Called back from London to settle her mother’s estate, she has conflicting feelings about reuniting with her estranged siblings. And when a nor’easter strands her with a sexy stranger, she decides to take advantage of the delay. But sharing a fleeting moment in time with world-famous designer Tinjin Braddy leaves her with regrets for what might have been.
Haunted by the memory of that sizzling goodbye kiss at the airport, the continent-hopping playboy doesn’t expect to see the siren in stilettos again. But their lives and careers are about to collide at a Stallion family reunion. And now high-level espionage threatens Tinjin’s entire business empire. With suspicion—and irresistible desire—igniting, can Tinjin trust Natalie with his future and his heart?
“So you don’t have to leave?”
“No. I don’t. And since you desperately want to spend time with me, I think I’m going to stay.”
Natalie smiled. “There is nothing desperate about me, TJ. Don’t get it twisted.”
She tossed a glance over her shoulder. Her family had moved to the foyer, the goodbyes lingering as everyone tried to get in one last word and comment. She turned back to Tinjin and moved against him, tipping up on her toes as she pressed her palms to his chest. “Thank you,” she said, her soft voice brushing warmly against his ear.
Tinjin wrapped his arms around her. “You’re welcome,” he whispered back as he relished the feel of her.
He placed a gentle kiss against her cheek, allowing his lips to linger there for a minute longer than necessary. Her breathing eased as she relaxed against him. He dropped his cheek to hers, the warmth of her skin sending a swift chill down his spine.
Natalie slid her arms around his torso and hugged her chest to his. He wrapped his arms around her back, his hands resting against the silk of her dress.
The Stallion family is officially back! After all your emails and messages and Facebook postings, I heard you loud and clear. But you know I couldn’t give you a Stallion story without throwing in a twist or two. And what better twist than a new branch on the Stallion family tree?
My Stallion Heart welcomes back Tinjin Braddy, the brother of Tierra Braddy, wife of Stallion cousin Travis from my book Promise to a Stallion. Once again, it’s all about family, friends and faith because there would be
no Stallion story without the foundation they were all raised on.
I greatly appreciate you all. I am humbled by your support. Thank you for all that you do to show me, my characters and our stories your love.
Until next time, please take care of yourselves, and may God’s blessings continue to be with you.
With much love,
Deborah Fletcher Mello
