Excerpt from Love Undercover!
My mental pep talk brings a smile to my face, and I inhale the rest of my lunch as I return my focus to the task at hand, hurling another glare at the offending fermentation tank. I’ll get that safety valve replaced today if I have to dismantle the damn tank piece by piece.
Thirty minutes later, I’ve only managed to move the bolt four millimeters. I thought I finally had it on that third turn, but now it’s really frozen. Even the penetrating oil I’ve used has failed to work. Utilizing every colorful curse word I know, I give it one more try, pulling so hard it will be a wonder if my shoulders don’t pop out of their sockets.
Startled by a deep chuckle directly behind me, I jerk upright, smacking my head on a pipe, and curse like a sailor.
“Goddammit!” I yell, throwing the wrench to the floor. I rub the sore spot on my scalp as I pivot to lambaste the idiot who has foolishly decided to invade my workroom and scare the bejesus out of me. But the sight that greets me renders me speechless, and my brain is filled with an appreciative humming sound.
I can only stare at the gorgeous man beaming back at me. Thick brown hair lies in soft, lazy curls around his head; his ridiculously well-lashed, dark eyes twinkle with amusement. His full lips are framed by the most perfectly chiseled jawline I think I’ve ever seen. To top it off, he is tall—easily over six feet—with long legs and a V-shaped torso that most models would kill for. Judging by the way his T-shirt molds to his muscular chest and arms, he is intimately familiar with exercise or some form of manual labor.
Gah! Focus, Sophie!
“That bolt’s giving you fits, huh?” the man drawls in a twang that sends a tingle right through me. There is definitely a southern drawl present, one deeper than is normal in Florida. It is insanely sexy and makes him that much more appealing. Despite being a California girl, I’ve always been a sucker for a southern accent.
Who the hell is this guy?
