Excerpt:

Curious to know what it did she pointed it away from herself towards her feet. Instantly, she could hear the sucking sound and knew it went inside your mouth to get rid of the excess water when they were cleaning or doing other procedures. She placed the tube back and picked up the second one. It too had a small button but this one was a bright blue.

Wondering why it was a different color ,she pressed the button, forgetting to point it away. Instead, it was pointed directly in front of her face. The surprisingly strong water stream hit Megan just below her eye. In her panic, she waved it away towards the door. That was the moment her new dentist stepped in, his greeting dying as the water hit him directly on the forehead. Reacting quickly, he turned so that the remaining water hit him behind his ear. Megan was so completely horrified that for the first few minutes it took for her to return the tube to its proper resting place, all while apologizing profusely, she never even looked at the poor man. Quickly wiping the rest of her dripping face ,she turned slightly as he walked fully into the room, facing her directly.

Oh no, Megan thought. No, no, no.” Closing her eyes briefly , she felt the heat of her embarrassment so acutely, that droplets of sweat formed immediately on her forehead, climbing from her neck to her face. “No, this cannot, absolutely cannot be happening,” she cried inwardly. But, she knew, without a doubt, that it most assuredly was, indeed, happening. Standing directly in front of her, still patting the water from his face and hair was Brice. Beautiful, tall, better looking than she remembered, Brice. Her new dentist.


Interview with Darci Garcia

    How I became involved with the subject/theme of my book

    I have always been especially drawn to HEA’s so naturally I gravitated to romance. I am especially drawn to characters who are very strong, but imperfect. There must be an authentic feel, something the reader can identify with.


    What were my goals and intention with the book and did I achieve them

    My very first goal was to actually submit the book. That alone was terrifying! Then, it was my hope to take my reader away for just a bit, to make them laugh, make them cry and especially to leave them with the sensation that they had just experienced a warm hug via my words. As for whether or not I achieved that, well, I submitted so yes to that, however, the rest, I believe will come with time. I’m aware some will not like it, but if just one does, then its a win win!


    What was the hardest part of writing my book

    Not rushing it. When you know what’s going to happen you tend to really fly through and that doesn't work, at least not for me. Also, the story invariably morphs into more than I intend. . Pacing myself was the most challenging aspect of the process.


    What did I enjoy most about writing the book

    I would have to say bringing my characters to life. Creating their voice, their emotions. Experiencing what they were experiencing. The creative process is a rush for me.


    Was there ever an alternate ending

    No. I knew exactly how I wanted the ending to go and I never wavered. I absolutely LOVE the ending!!


    Can I share stories of those I met while researching the book

    For this particular book all of my research revolved around Google so I didn't meet anyone…at least for this book.


    What genre of books do I enjoy reading

    I love historical romance and horror. I know, quite the dichotomy!!
