Blurb: Tessa is having one
seriously bad day. After agreeing to dress as a cheesy mascot at a
convention for her boss, her clothes get stolen, she gets chased
through a sinister parking garage, and her apartment gets broken into
and turned upside down.
Gray, an off-duty police officer, can’t
resist the sexy legs he sees in costume at a hotel convention. When
he catches sight of her running for her life through a dark car lot,
he's determined to find out what her story is and ends up promising
to keep Tessa safe...even if that means taking her home with him.

Excerpt:
Gray stepped outside of the hotel
ballroom hoping the air would be cooler out there. He hated stuffy
gatherings. Hell, he hated weddings. How two people could think
they'd love each other forever was beyond him. Gray didn't do love.
Which was why he was stag at a co-worker's wedding. He'd originally
planned to invite Monique, but several months back she'd become
demanding and talked about moving into his place with hearts and
flowers in her eyes. So he'd ended it. Deep down, he'd known that she
didn't really want him. She wanted any warm body that would take care
of her. She had slowly been trying to mold him into some GQ tycoon,
telling him what to wear, how to act, and even going as far as
telling him what he needed to do career-wise.
A loud crash on the other side of the
hall caught Gray's attention. In the open ballroom across the way he
saw legs. Glorious legs in strappy high heels. The beautiful legs
were tangled on the floor and attached to an ass that was just as
gorgeous. After taking a closer look, Gray realized that above the
amazing ass was an enormous, white light bulb-shaped head with blue
googly eyes. It had blonde hair and wore a glittery purple hat. The
tangled-up legs and heels were flailing around in a pile of what
looked like empty light bulb boxes. Several gentlemen nearby were
quick to help Legs get her feet beneath her. From their smiles and
laughter he could tell that they were all quite happy to be of
assistance. Gray didn't blame them.
He watched Legs find her balance in
those high heels, and with a little wiggle and tug of her skirt she
went on her way.
About The Author:
Edie Hart was born in the Northwest
suburbs of Chicago, where she now resides with her husband, two
children, dog, and three cats. After spending her childhood making up
stories in her head, she finally decided to put them on paper. What
came of it was her first novella, One Bad Day. Edie is a die-hard
romantic and believes that everyone deserves to be loved
unconditionally—both in print and real life.
Edie also admits that "Edie Hart"
is a pen name and an alter ego to an otherwise boring wife and
mother. Edie is 20 pounds lighter, loves to skydive, travels to
foreign places, and is a total sex kitten as compared to the
uninteresting other half who is none of those things.
In reality the other half of Edie is a
lackluster 40-something-year-old, whose main goal is to keep The Big
One (The Boy) from torturing The Little One (The Girl). This week he
hit her in the head with a 12-pack of Juicy Juice. Last week he left
ravioli handprints on the back of her white T-shirt. The week before
that he told her she was adopted and she believed him.
