Book Blitz + #Giveaway: Confident in Chaps by Em Petrova @empetrova @XpressoTours

Confident in Chaps
Em Petrova
(Crossroads, #2)
Publication date: September 21st 2020
Genres: Adult, Romance, Suspense


In Crossroads you make a deal to get what you want, but sometimes you get what you need instead.


Kaoz Bellamy left Crossroads to ride the range. Upon his return, he finds his girlfriend gone—and she even took his custom beer tap. Worse than the fact he won’t be accessing his favorite brewski anytime soon is the realization she isn’t coming back.


Did the big, jerk of a cowboy actually think Brielle would wait around pining for him, when he didn’t give any indication how he felt about her? No amount of rope in the county could tie her to that man again. But after one look at him, she finds that old flame still burns hot, his hands are just as perfectly rough…and he can still light her on fire with his kisses.


No matter how sexy and out of control their interludes are, Brielle will never fully trust Kaoz again. He claims he’ll do anything to win her back, even help out her pain-in-the-neck brother with his startup ranch. Kaoz never did see eye to eye with her family, but if he can help get her brother’s ranch on its feet, he just might have a second chance with the little firecracker he loves. Working alongside him means ample opportunities to remind her just how good he can make her feel too…and Brielle fears if she loses her heart to the determined cowboy this time, there might be no getting it back.

EXCERPT:



Kaoz staying on the ranch. Too close for her comfort. Where exactly did the cowboy plan to sleep? 


While she turned the horse out to pasture again, she tried to keep the annoyance out of her movements. Then she stalked straight to the house and threw open the door. Everything looked the same. She didn’t see Kaoz’s plaid shirt tossed over the arm of the couch, but that didn’t mean he hadn’t infiltrated her life more than he already had. 


Rushing to her room, her heart drummed. The door stood partway open. She nudged it, sending it swinging all the way—and saw his bag on her bed. 


“Oh hell no.” She ran to the bed and unzipped the bag. A whiff of his masculine scent flooded out, wrapping her in its warm, spicy cocoon. 


She whipped up a shirt from the top of the bag and yanked on both sleeves, trying to rip it in half. The cloth didn’t even stretch an inch. Knowing that her need to tear things to shreds the way he’d shredded her heart wouldn’t work, she grabbed the whole bag and strode to the window. 


She threw it open and tossed out his shirt. It landed outside in the overgrown bushes. A bird flapped out, flying for its life. 


Next Brielle yanked out a T-shirt. “New Mexico? You can keep your New Mexico tourist T-shirt!” She rifled it like a football, but it only passed over the bush and landed in the yard. Item by item, she hurled them, balling up his socks and whipping them as far as she could throw them. Next came his shaving cream and razor—dumped straight into the bush.Good luck finding those, Bellamy. 


When the bag was empty, she chucked it out and then slammed the window shut. To her delight, the wind caught on his boxer shorts and carried them off through the yard. 


The heavy thump of a footstep on the floor made her whirl. Kaoz filled the entire doorway, his lips set in a grim line. 


“Your things aren’t here.” She spread her hands to indicate the space that only contained her belongings. 


He shot a look to the window and then slid it back to her. No, pinned it on her more like. Her heart flipped over. 


He stepped inside the room. She moved backward until the window ledge hit her thighs. 


“We need to talk, Brielle.” 


“There’s nothing to say. You left. You know I didn’t want you to. I thought I could wait it out, and I was wrong. I can’t go back and change your mind, Kaoz.” Her words rolled out in a rush. 


He took another step toward her. And another. When he stood in front of her, she was forced to tip her head up to look at him, even though she stood tall as well. 


“Get out of my room, Kaoz.” 


When he whipped out an arm and lashed it around her spine, surprise ripped a gasp from her. He yanked her in, and she grunted as she struck his solid as oak body. His warm breath washed over her lips, and all she saw were bright blue eyes a split second before his mouth crushed down over hers. 


Man. Steel. God, she missed this. Missed him. 


She melted for a moment before her sanity took hold again, and she shoved him away. 


“No, Kaoz! I told you we’re through.” 


He stepped away, his gaze lingering. He ran his tongue over his lower lip in a slow glide that had her thighs clenching. 


“I’m staying right here, sweet thing, until I convince you how I feel about you.”
