EXCERPT
I Love You
Again
by Khardine Gray
"Let's
do the bets before the guys get here." Jennifer smiled. Neil and his
groomsmen were meeting them for dinner. It was the chance for everyone to meet
properly. "Neil's best man is single and a complete hottie." Jennifer
giggled.
"Hottie?"
Trina asked with narrowed eyes. "Can you even say that anymore?"
"Yes,
because my Neil knows I think he's the hottest of them all. Anyway, I've known
his friend for years, and I always thought he'd be nice for one of you two. I
don't know the other guys that well but this guy has the full package."
Trina
rolled her eyes. "Mandy can have him. I bet twenty she'll be the wedding
hook up."
"Me?"
Mandy pointed to herself. "I bet thirty it's you." "Okay. I'll
go with Mandy and Jennifer, Trina," Lizzie said. "I'm going in big
for a hundred." Jennifer smiled.
Trina
shook her head. Jennifer always went in big. It was sad that this time she
would lose a hundred bucks. That was a decent pair of shoes or a nice top in
Nordstrom. It was so silly to waste so much on a bet.
"Oh
you would wouldn't you," Lizzie grumbled. "I bet one fifty on Mandy
then."
"Oh
look. They're here, and there he is." Jennifer beamed. They looked across
the restaurant, over the crowded tables to the entrance where more people were
coming in to start their evening.
Trina
saw Neil first. He'd had his black hair cut into a neat style that allowed him
to keep his locks. Dressed in a white cotton shirt and dark trousers he looked
elegant and carried his tall, muscular stature with grace. Trina thought he
moved as if he were floating towards them. No, not them.
He
floated towards Jennifer and had the look of love all over him. Jennifer smiled
at him and blew a kiss which he made a show of catching and placing on his
heart. Mandy and Lizzie both awed and cooed. Trina looked back to Neil and saw
two dark haired guys next to him that she didn't recognize.
"It's
the guy behind Neil. The really tall gorgeous one with all the muscles."
Jennifer giggled. "There."
Trina
followed Jennifer's gaze and looked behind Neil. When her eyes landed on the
man Jennifer was referring to, her whole body froze.
Completely
froze. She was sure her heart had stopped too because she couldn't feel it
anymore. Trina drew in a sharp breath and choked back a cry as spasms of shock
erupted within her.
She
felt faint and feverish both at the same time as she continued to look at him
in an attempt to work out if her mind was playing tricks on her. Prolonging her
stare confirmed it was not. She'd recognize him anywhere. Yes, he was tall -
six feet four to be exact - and still gorgeous with his Hollywood good looks,
muscular physique and shiny blonde hair. But this guy was deadly.

About Robyn Rychards
Robyn Rychards grew up in
the granola bowl of the United States, Boulder Colorado, a town filled with
fruits, flakes and nuts. She considers herself a
Jack-of-all-trades-master-of-none and has taught herself to sew, paint, play
the piano, garden, cook, the list goes on. But now that her books are
published, she’s thrilled to finally be considered a master of one. At least as
much as a person can be, for the learning never really stops.
She feels her active
imagination is a blessing and a curse, with the blessing far outweighing the
curse since it has led her to fulfill her dream of writing for Harlequin. Robyn
started writing stories when she was a teenager because she didn’t have enough
books to read. Sometimes she finds it hard to believe that people are willing
to pay her to do something she enjoys so much, but mostly she’s happy to have
such a wonderful excuse not to cook and clean. And a job that means you can
stay in your jammies as long as you want? Priceless.
She also loves to hear from
her readers, so send her an email. You can get in
touch with her on Twitter, @robynrychards. She loves meeting new people on
Facebook too and can be found under her name, Robyn Rychards. Check out her web
page for details about her books and upcoming
releases.
