The walls
vibrated as soon as the spotlights hit them. Feet stomped. Fans yelled. Some
even stood on their chairs. Camera lights clicked on and so did Lincoln.
Brightly. He strode to the center of the stage. Confident. Compelling.
Controlled. A cosmic force.
He
plucked the mic from the stand glared at the audience daring them to come along
with him or get the hell out of the way, before he and the guys launched into a
cover of ‘Satisfaction’ that kicked ass
as righteously as the original.
It went
uphill from there. Ramon on guitar flashing his flirt. Ash slamming sexy on his
drums. Patch firm and steady on bass. And Linc my gorgeous warrior with depths
of worth that he still failed to recognize eclipsing them all. The Dirt Dogs
might still a bit rough around the edges but they were undeniably on the
ascent. What had started out as something to occupy their time when the surf
wasn’t up had transformed into a magical mélange of Pacific saltwater,
California sun and hard rocking in your face attitude.
I moved
quickly across the parking lot shielding my eyes from the glare when I reached
the sand. The tension inside my stomach instantly ratcheted tighter. I
recognized Lincoln right away. Even in his wet suit the way he moved across the
surface of the ocean on his board was as unique as he was.
Under the
curtain unleashing his fins.
Maxing
out of the tube.
Finding
steep wall and going nearly vertical.
Those
were the maneuvers I knew, the others I didn’t but that didn’t make them any
less awe inspiring.

“You
afraid?”
I shook
my head. I was never afraid of him. Never.
He
studied me a beat seeming to notice my parted lips, heavy breathing, hard
nipples and trembling.
“Turned
on?” he guessed.
I nodded.
“Get on
my board then, babe. I aim to please if you’ll let me.”

Rock Stars, Surf and Second Chances
When handsome California surf god Lincoln
Savage suddenly rolls into Ocean Beach like a rogue wave, shy beauty Simone
Bianchi’s foundation is shaken. No longer under the thumb of her domineering
father, she’s made a simple quiet life for herself and her fluffy fourteen
pound Havanese pup running a surf shop in her hometown of OB. Long ago she gave
up her dreams for a future with Linc.
But now the notorious lead singer of the Dirt
Dogs has returned, and Simone is reluctant to admit that she’s still vulnerable
to his killer dimpled smile and easy charm. She finds that although she’s
stowed away the mementos, it hasn’t been as easy to erase the memories of their
epic summer love.
It seems he hasn’t forgotten, either.
Is the recording contract he’s offering merely
a pretense?
Or does he have something more in mind?
Does he really believe that they can just pick
up where they left off, despite all the bad luck and heartache?
And is she willing to risk everything again
for one last chance at love?
