Lateness and delay aside, I'm continuing my spotlight of Kristina Knight's Anthem series by bringing you the lowdown on Call Me, the 3rd in the three book collection. If time and space ever let me leave a review for these books (I'm admittedly one and a half books through), then that's exactly what I'll do. Don't forget - check books out and, if you like what you read, leave a review anywhere you can. Authors need love too!
Call Me by Kristina Knight
Katrina Phillips is itchy. The
job that has always challenged her seems stifling, her friends are all pairing
off and she's been without male companionship for seven long months.
Josh Hanna is paying off a debt:
fly to LA, play backup for the house band during the season finale of Star
Power and then back to his boring - and sober - life in San Francisco.
But five years hasn't been long
enough to douse the flames between them, and its hard to remember why things
went so badly in the first place...
Here's an excerpt from Call Me, courtesy of Kristina!
“Hello, Josh,” she said, echoing
his tone from a few minutes before.
He
blinked and then sat up straight. “What the hell are you doing in my car, Kat?”
His smooth baritone slid over her senses and, just like that, she was pulling
herself back from the abyss she’d been in five years before. This was just a
one-night stand. Nothing to get excited about.
Okay,
one thing to get excited about. He knew all her secret places. She knew how to
push him to the edge. And in the past few years, they’d probably both learned a
few new things.
“What
do you think I’m doing here?” she countered, crossing her legs and spreading
her arms over the back of the seat. “You practically invited me.”
The
car began moving. Well, at least he hadn’t kicked her out of the limo.
“I
said hello.”
“You
told me not to leave on your account.”
“And
then you did.”
“I
thought you might want a little more privacy.” She slid across the side bench
to Josh’s seat, bent her leg to sit sideways and rested her head against her
elbow. “This is pretty private, I’d say.”
He
watched her for a long moment. “You’re here for sex.”
Kat
nodded. “I don’t usually go for casual, but since we have a history, this isn’t
your typical one-night stand.”
“This
isn’t what I expected when I came down here tonight.”
“This
isn’t what I expected when I showed up for work tonight.” She reached out to
trace her finger along his jaw. That contact zinged along her nerve endings
straight to the butterflies flapping around in her belly, electrifying their
beat.
“I’m
headed straight to the airport.” He leaned toward her.
“LA
traffic’s a bitch no matter what time of day it is.”
“You’re
not the girl I remember.” This time he reached for her, his hand drawing a path
of fire down her arm. “The girl I remember—”
She
cut him off before he could get started on the girl she used to be. The girl
who was of so little importance he felt no qualms about walking away from
without a single word. Well, she’d grown up since then. Had other
relationships. Sure, none of them as serious or deep as what she thought she’d
had with him.
But then, she’d never really had
him, had she?

One more time, babies - I know that all three titles make you think of the tuneage! On that 'note':
And if I haven't included a bio on Kristina yet (and more information on how you can link up with her), here it is now:
Once upon a time, Kristina Knight
spent her days running from car crash to fire to meetings with local
police--no, she wasn't a troublemaker, she was a journalist. Her career took
her all over the United States, writing about everything from a serial killer's
capture to the National Finals Rodeo. Along the way she found her very own
Knight in Shining Cowboy Boots and an abiding love for romance novels. And just
like the characters from her favorite books, she's living her own happily ever
after.
Kristina writes sassy
contemporary romance novels; her books have appeared on Kindle Best Seller
Lists. She loves hearing from readers, so drop her a line!
