Reviews & Accolades
"Goodman has a real flair... Witty dialogue, first-rate narrative prose, and clever plotting."
~Publishers Weekly

Michael found she was staring at Ethan's naked back, at the angle of his shoulder blades, at the tautness of his skin. She wanted to run a finger down the length of his spine. She wanted to trace it with her lips.
Ethan turned around then. Michael was just pulling the nightshirt modestly over her knees. She almost looked prim. Almost. But there was her hair that had been loosed from every confining pin and lay across her shoulders and back in all its magnificent splendor. There was the delicate hollow of her throat that was laid bare by the open collar of her nightshirt. Then there was the way her lips came together as she swallowed her smile. His blue-gray eyes slid over her hair, her throat, and came to rest on her mouth.
"I'm tired of sleeping on the floor," he said quietly. Then he came toward her.
Michael was drawn to her feet though Ethan never touched her. She raised her face. Her eyes held his.
"This is when you should tell me to stop." Ethan saw that she never moved. She stood there still as stone, yet he felt her tremble. "Can you?"
Michael blinked once. Her mouth parted slightly. No sound came.
"Can you?" he asked again, his voice just above a whisper.
"No."
She had never thought when she conceived her scheme for escape that it would bring her to this pass, yet against all reason she couldn't conceive of any other place she wanted to be. She thought he meant for her to trust him enough to make her escape. She knew now he'd meant for her to trust him enough to make her stay.

Meet Jo Goodman
Jo Goodman is a licensed professional counselor working with children and families in West Virginia's Northern Panhandle. Always a fan of the happily ever after, Jo turned to writing romances early in her career as a child care worker when she realized the only life script she could control was the one she wrote herself. She is inspired by the resiliency and courage of the children she meets and feels privileged to be trusted with their stories, the one that they alone have the right to tell.
Once upon a time, Jo believed she was going to be a marine biologist. She feels lucky that seasickness made her change course. She lives with her family in Colliers, West Virginia. Please visit her website at www.jogoodman.com.
