A Place to Rest My Heart blurb
Sean Muldoon knows trouble
when he sees it, and he sees it in Laney Murphy the minute she passes out in
his arms. He thinks she’s a con artist, and she thinks he’s just like everyone
else, arrogant and judgmental.
Much to Sean’s dismay his
family is determined to help Laney and he just doesn’t understand why. That is
until he gets to know her and realize under her tough exterior beats a heart of
gold.
A Place to Rest My Heart excerpt. Enjoy!
“Move,
Ace. You’re in my way.”
“Sweetheart,
I haven’t even begun to be in your way.” He leaned against the doorway, arms
crossed. “I will not allow you to hurt Tommy or Molly, so why don’t you pack up
your schemes and dreams and hit the road. You won’t get a penny from them. I’ll
see to that.”
I
have never been known for having an even temper but I’ve worked hard to keep it
under control, but not this time.
“Look,
asshole, I don’t have a clue what you’re talking about. You’re delusional if
you
think I have any intention of taking a dime
from Tommy that I haven’t earned. I pay my way!”
“Sure
you do. I ran your fingerprints, darlin’, right off your juice glass from this
morning.
You’ve got a nice background there, Laney.
Pandering? Breaking and entering? Those are great
ways to pay your way, huh? You got a scam
to bilk Tommy, but you might as well hit the road
running, babe,” He smiled, acting quite
pleased with himself. “Tommy and Molly all too often
fall for the sob story and feel sorry for
the strays that come along.”
I
felt that to my core. Stray? Felt sorry for me? The last thing I needed was
anyone’s pity.
But
right at the moment the only thing I felt was the need to strike back at Sean.
“Stray, huh? “Weren’t you a stray
too? They feel sorry for you then? Take you in on pity?” I saw his jaw
tighten and knew I’d scored.
“Leave
now and I won’t tell them your plans to take them for a ride,” he growled.
“My
plans? You’re so sure about my plans, huh? Wow, you sure are smart, Sean
Michael Muldoon. You ran my fingerprints and so now you know my whole life
story in one fell swoop? Look, you arrogant ass, you have no idea what my life
has been like and a couple of knocks on a police sheet only tells you what your
narrow-minded brain wants to hear. But for your parents’ sake, I’ll go and save
you the trouble of making a fool out of yourself.”
I
tossed the case of champagne at him. He let out a curse, as he lunged to catch
the box and I shoved him hard when I went through the doorway. I heard him hit
the shelves, rattling bottles and swearing a blue streak. I heard the case of
champagne hit the floor with a thud and the sound of breaking glass.
I
know I could have done worse and to this day I still have no idea why I didn’t
kick himin the nuts, or flat out deck him. I should have done something other
than leave. I wanted to do
anything other than leave, but I couldn’t
bear having to own up to some of the missteps I had made long ago.
