Title- Main Attraction
By- Ava O’Shay
Genre- Adult Contemporary Romance (Steamy)
Jessica Hunter lost her heart and her husband at the same time. He died, and she discovered his infidelities, leaving her a shattered mess.
Five years later, Jessica still isn’t interested in a relationship. That is, until she meets sexy, lead actor Penn Jackson on the set of a popular tween movie—and her life gets turned upside down. Swept away by Penn’s carefree attitude, she lets him into her heart—and her bed—even though Penn warns her that being with him will change her life.
Penn’s warning doesn’t mean much to her. But when his publicist begins a campaign to get rid of her, and a trip to the emergency room turns into a tabloid explosion, she doesn’t just lose her anonymity, but also her job. Now, Jessica will have to choose between the man she loves and the life she’s always known.

EXCERPT
“No, I’m not married.”
“But…the ring?”
I raised my hand to
look at my wedding band. I never thought to remove it. I shrugged. “Widowed.
Five years.”
“You thought I didn’t
like the kiss?” he said incredulously.
I felt him tense when
I leaned in and placed my mouth to his. This time, I was the one that caused
the moan to escape his lips. “It’s kind of like riding a bike,” I mused.
“I thought you were
leaving.” He smiled slyly.
“I thought you didn’t
want me to.” I kissed him again.
“Jess…I loved the
kiss. I just didn’t want to have to convince you to leave your husband for me.”
His fingers gripped my hips and he nuzzled my neck, his words hot on my skin.
“I think you’ll need to sit on the other side of the room for us to continue to
talk or I’ll end up breaking my word.”
“What word would that
be?” Tangling his hair through my fingers, I laughed when he playfully nipped
at my jaw.
“That I didn’t invite
you here for sex,” he mumbled.
I found my lips
craving his. His mouth tasted so good. “But you did. Didn’t you,” I stated,
pulling back a little.
“No. You aren’t like
the others.” He ran kisses along my collarbone trying to distract me.
“Maybe it wouldn’t be
so bad to go back on my word.” Hope filled his voice. “You know, if you’re a
willing participant.”
“Maybe,” I muttered
when his mouth found mine again and again, sending a zing straight through my
body. My breath caught when his hand found its way under my shirt and his
knuckles grazed over my nipple. Regaining my wits, I stepped back. “No. I
can’t. We have to stop.” I side-stepped him and rubbed my face, readjusting the
shirt that had become bunched around my breasts. “We shouldn’t…well, we should
at least slow down.”
He turned away and
appeared to be readjusting himself. “You’re right. That isn’t how I want this
to go.” He grabbed a new bottle of beer and plopped onto the far end of the
couch, taking a long swig.
“How did you see it
going?”
Penn stared blankly. “I don’t see it going into my bedroom
if that’s what you’re asking. You already seem to have gotten the Penn is a
douchebag memo. I don’t want them to be proven correct.”
