Happy sunday and its time for SexySnippets, where authors share 7-8 lines/sentences of a book or work in progress. My sexy new science fiction romance, Race to Redemption (Green Rising Book #1) released last week from Evernight Publishing.
In this scene Erik needs Lainie’s piloting skills to fly him through a storm to help a child they both love. He had rejected her, and she is still pretty angry.
“The stasis drug in Sen is breaking down. I have to get to him before it does.” He stepped closer until she could feel his unique musky scent wrap around her. “The antidote works. Qirta is fine, better than fine.” A light finally turned on in those green eyes.
“I won’t go with you. I’ll fly Brej.”
“Brej isn’t fully recovered.”
“Another doctor then.” Just not you.
“There isn’t anyone else.”

Here’s the blurb.
A woman who lost everything
Intergalactic storm racing champion Elaina Carteret had it all—celebrity, wealth, men—until a horrific accident took it away. To get it back, she agrees to pose as Lainie Carter, medical transport pilot and corporate spy. Her risk-taking attitude infuriates Dr. Erik Johansen, who runs the medical outpost with an iron hand, a permanent scowl and the tightest bod on the planet.
A man desperate for redemption
Unable to forgive himself for a past tragedy, Erik works himself into an early grave. He has no patience for the insubordinate Lainie Carter, who can’t take an order, disrupts routine, and flames his body to ash.
A planet at risk
When the outpost is attacked, they’re thrown together in a race across the desert to stop a deadly biogenetic weapon. As a fragile trust blossoms between two damaged hearts, their pasts resurface and threaten their growing bond.
