Book Preview: "Tainted Tea for Two"

When personal fitness trainer Ms. Marty Jackson accepts an assignment in England, romance is the furthest thing on her mind. Fate has other ideas in the form of a handsome British barrister. But when a body is found in the library, can Marty convince her new-found love of her innocence when all evidence points in her direction?

REVIEW

4 Daggers! Ms. Knight has written a wonderful story full of mystery, romance, and even comedy. I couldn't put it down and read TAINTED TEA FOR TWO in one sitting. Her description of the scenery brought back many wonderful memories of my trip to England. She even captured the musty smell of big manors, and the small shops in the village. This is a delightful whodunit that I truthfully enjoyed very, very much. I recommend that everyone read this wonderful book. Ms. Knight has captured the true feelings of England, in a wonderful tale of love, and mystery. You'll be absolutely delighted with your choice." Sue Hartigan, All About Murder Reviews

EXCERPT

Making sure her short robe covered what it was supposed to, Marty took a step back from Gresham. No good. His masculine after-shave drifted toward her and teased her tired senses. "What do you mean by coming into my room like this? I could've been... sleeping."

Fortunately she changed her word choice from "naked" to "sleeping." Dangerous suggestion around someone who looked as devastating as he did.

Gresham's smile conveyed his disbelief. "At eight o'clock? I hardly think so. I'm here to bring you downstairs."

Although she should have thrown him out, she stood rooted to the floor.

For some reason, the four poster bed seemed to attract him. He walked over to it and began pawing through her pile of recently discarded clothing. "I was under the impression that Americans understood English, Ms. Jackson. Dinner, I remember saying, is at eight. You are keeping everyone from their food."

Only when he uncovered her bra did her motionless state vanish. "Do you mind?" She quickly tugged on his arm, and pulled him away from the bed... and the intimate articles.

He smiled again, revealing perfect white teeth. This time her heart fluttered in such a peculiar way. "I told Lottie I wouldn't be joining you."

"You have no choice. Come. It is late."

Annoyance crept into her tone. She planted her hands on her hips. "Listen, I appreciate the offer but I'm tired and I don't feel like eating."

The top of her robe gaped open a little. Naturally his gaze took in the sight. Just collarbones, but his smile deepened. She grabbed at the material. The beast!

"Ms. Jackson," Gresham murmured, "you will accompany me to dinner, undressed as you are, or otherwise." He slowly, torturously, skimmed the side of her cheek with two of his fingers.
