Day Three
With Halloween right around the corner, M. Stratton has
decided to celebrate one of her favourite holiday’s with a good old fashioned
scavenger hunt! Join us as we journey
through all of her books in search of the missing pieces needed to claim the
final grand prize.
Every day you will be sent in search of different hosting
blogs that will hold the pieces needed to continue on in the hunt. After each day, go back to the event page and
make sure you post the pieces needed for the day.
At the end of the week one lucky winner will be chosen to win
a collection of signed books from M. Stratton(including The Storm Series,
Dreaming in Moonlight and Fade to Black) and a $25 Amazon Gift Card.
Remember the missing piece may be hidden in an synopsis, excerpt,
teaser photo or interview questions given to Miss Statton and you may have to visit more than one blog to find it. The piece needed may be a part of a picture or as simple as a word in a
paragraph.

Jackson was
right. She didn’t have to face this alone; all she had to do was open up and
let him in. He’d shown over and over that he’d be there for her. Hell, he’d
searched for her, for years. He’d
kept the fact he knew her, a secret. She went back in her head to the last
night they were together. She had completely relaxed with him, and given all
she had, it was the best night of her life. She wanted that, and the woman she
used to be, back. It was coming, slowly, but maybe there was something she
could do now.
Leaning
against the counter, she rubbed her hands over her face, wondering if she could
do this. Knowing that if she did, it would change everything. It would mean
Jackson meant more to her than her need for revenge. It would mean she’d have
to start relying on someone else, knowing they would be relying on her too.
She’d actually be in a relationship. As damaged and broken as she was, she
really wanted this; she wanted it with Jackson. She needed him in her soul.
Having made
her decision, she quickly undressed, folding her clothes neatly and putting
them to the side. Taking a deep breath, she climbed in under the covers and
called to Jackson so he would come in.
He slid
into bed behind her and reached for her. She knew the instant he knew she was
naked; his hand stilled on her shoulder and his breath caught.
“Are you
sure?” he whispered.
Turning
over so she was facing him, she said, “I’ve never been more sure of anything in
my life.”
She felt
his hands shaking as they traced down her arm and across her belly, leaving a
trail of goose bumps. Her eyes closed and she enjoyed being touched by him.
“I don’t
want to do anything that will scare you,” he said as he kissed the side of her
neck, just under her ear.
She pulled
his t-shirt up so she could touch his chest. “Remember that last night we were
together?”
“How could
I forget?” His breathing became more rapid.
“Nothing
you did then scared me. I was yours, completely. Take me. Take all that I am.”
She felt
him go still for a second as her words sunk in. The next thing she knew, his
lips captured hers and their tongues fought for dominance.
She pulled
and tugged at his shirt, wanting to feel his skin against hers. Their mouths
briefly separated as he yanked the shirt off over his head. They crashed back
together, the years they spent apart melted away as their bodies remembered.
Once they
were naked together, he slid into her and she shuddered, finally feeling
complete. She matched him thrust for thrust, wanting more, demanding more from
him. Rolling off the mattress, the cool marble floor was in direct contrast to
the heat coming off his body.
Using his
strength, he moved them back onto their makeshift bed and she enjoyed the
feeling of being in charge, setting the pace as she straddled him. Her
breathing coming faster as his fingers teased her nipples. Leaning down, she
took his mouth with hers. She pulled back, but he wouldn’t let go. Sitting up,
he wrapped his arms around her as they continued to rock with him buried deep
inside of her.
Feeling the
orgasm building, she raked her nails down his back not able to control herself.
His fingers bit into her ass as his held her close to him. His cock throbbed
inside her, wanting its release.
Running her
hands through his hair, she got a handful of it and pulled his head back.
Looking into his eyes in the dim light, she knew she’d come home.
Screaming
his name, they toppled over the edge together.

M. Stratton is an International Amazon bestselling author in the romantic suspense and mystery suspense categories for her debut novel After the Storm. She is a self-proclaimed dork that loves to make people laugh and can trip over nothing. Her inner rock star is always on stage performing to a sold out crowd but is quiet and shy on the outside.
She lives with her husband and son in Arizona, which is a big difference from where she grew up north of Chicago Illinois. As an only child she learned to tell herself stories to make the long winters go by quicker while dreaming of summer vacations. Now as an adult she still makes up stories to pass the time, but now she writes them down to share with other people.
When not writing you can find M. watching football (Go Bears!), NASCAR, or classic movies, watching her husband and father restore classic cars, and seeing who can be sillier, her or her son, and of course reading.
