TANTALIZING EXCERPTS FROM, "A PRESCRIPTION FOR LOVE"


TANTALIZING EXCERPTS FROM, “A PRESCRIPTION FOR LOVE”
Nicole was apprehensive, sensing that his presence was near. Her anxiety

heightened as she turned from the ship’s railing and saw a tall figure coming towards her
through the fog. She recognized his confident stride and powerful well-muscled body. As he approached, panic rose in Nicole, causing her knees to almost buckle beneath her. Travis’s strong grasp clasped her bare shoulders forcefully, pulling her close to him. Nicole struggled against him, trying to push away her desire to melt into his arms and give way to the rising passion she felt whenever he was near.
Nicole looked into Travis’s piercing blue eyes and gasped upon seeing the flames of passion and desire reflected in them. With a moan, Travis’s mouth came down possessively upon her soft yielding lips. Nicole felt her defensive walls crumble as pulsating sensations whirled in her body, igniting an all consuming desire that only he could satiate. She sighed and molded her body into his, letting go of her self control.
Travis caught her to him, holding her against his virile body and kissed her, plundering her lips until she had no will of her own. It was as if someone had lit a fire at every point they touched. Somehow her fingers were buried in his hair, feeling its crisp unruliness with the last of her reeling senses and somehow her full lips were opening under his. Her lips were smothered by his mouth and a strange lightheadedness possessed her body as waves of explicit pleasure rocked over her. The fever reached her mind and nothing mattered except her hunger for the man that held her in his arms. She became limp with desire reveling in this primitive fierceness.
Travis swiftly pulled Nicole up against his body, knowing what he desired right at that moment, unable to control the passionate side of the love he felt for her.
Her laughing ceased as she felt the muscular contours of his body interlock against the bare surfaces of her body. She gasped as she gazed into his expressive eyes
and encountered the deep passionate chemistry that flowed between them. Her arms possessed with a will of their own, slid up around his neck, enabling her to press her body even closer to his, delighting in the sensations the act was arousing within her.
With a groan, Travis brought his lips down upon her soft pink yielding mouth. An electrical charge surged through him, igniting his body to boundaries he had never approached before. His lips endlessly explored hers, tasting a sweetness, that he wanted to drown in forever.
Nicole pushed aside her fears, letting go of all her built up defenses, unable to deny that which her heart and body craved so deeply. Her head whirled as a warm tingling sensation spread to the most vulnerable areas of her body, urging her to melt her body into his, desiring to become as one with him.
His hand wandered to the bare satiny softness of her back, caressing ever so gently, causing shivers to travel up and down her spine. His kiss became more demanding, and hungry as he took in the response he body was giving him.
***This is just a sampling of what awaits you in this passion filled love story!

MY INTERVIEW FOR MY BOOK, "A PRESCRIPTION FOR LOVE" FROM ALL THESE BOOKS


[u][b]About Me[/b][/u]
BIOGRAPHY OF LEEANNE MARIE STEPHENSON
RN and Author of
“A PRESCRIPTION FOR LOVE”

My introduction into the world of medical professionals started at the age of six. I was diagnosed with “brittle diabetes”, and spent the majority of my childhood in the hospital. Doctors, nurses, and nutritionists impressed me with their patience, sensitivity and positive can do attitudes. They taught me how to balance my food intake and insulin injections so I could lead a “somewhat” normal life. The professionalism these people displayed made me realize that I wanted to be part of this care giving community. Therefore, I became a Registered Nurse. After graduating with honors from Mercy Central School of Nursing, (Grand Rapids, MI), I secured a position as a Registered Nurse at Blodgett Hospital, (Grand Rapids, MI). Over the next ten years, I married my high school sweetheart and started a family. Periodically I changed jobs to meet the demands of parenthood and family life.
Then my life took a dramatic turn as I was diagnosed with kidney failure due to my diabetes. The prognosis was less than promising. As my physical condition deteriorated, I was forced to give up my career as a nurse. Fatigue and weakness encompassed my entire world as I underwent dialysis treatments. Once again, I was on the receiving end of medical care. Desperate and determined to still be part of this wonderful profession, I started writing a romance novel based on the experiences I had encountered as a nurse. When the days that lie ahead of me seemed impossible to face, I did not allow my tears to compromise my strength. Instead of giving up, during the darkest time in my life, I drew on the love that surrounded me from my wonderful husband and family to write this loving story. When I wrote, I was released from my physical problems and taken back into the world of nursing, which I loved so much. Romantic stories can always release us from the problems of real life. They send us into a fantasy world where our imaginations can soar. I strove to take my readers and myself into that world. Thus was born my book, “A PRESCRIPTION FOR LOVE”.
This book is so very special because it represents the strong love I had surrounding me, and what I could accomplish because of it, during the lowest point in my life.
The one driving force in my life was to be there for my family, especially my precious children. I had to continue and be a strong role model for them. I demonstrated to them that when adversity is overwhelming, you still have to endure. Getting ahead in a difficult situation requires an avid faith in oneself. I did just that by reaching deep inside myself and drawing on my core values of perseverance and unfaltering resolve to overcome the obstacles in my life and achieve one of my dreams!
After a year on dialysis, I was told I could have a kidney transplant. My wonderful brother stepped forward and gave me the gift of life. From that moment on, my whole world changed for the better and I eagerly embraced this second chance at life. When I felt well enough, I set about getting my romance story published, so I could be an inspirational example of what can be accomplished when life seems overwhelmingly hopeless! Unfortunately, I recently learned that my transplanted kidney is deteriorating. I hope and pray that I am able to showcase my story to others before my health gets too bad.

"Nicole looked into Travis's piercing blue eyes and gasped upon seeing the depth of passion and desire reflected in them. With a moan, Travis's mouth came down possessively upon her soft yielding lips. She sighed and molded her body into his, letting go of her self control." This is just an example of the passion that exists between the two characters!

I highly recommend reading this book. It is a compelling spell binding tale of romance!
