SNEAKY PEAK
Excerpt 1:
A little later, Stella put down her fork
unable to eat another bite. She was
listening to JB tell Federico a story about
his latest fishing trip. JB raised his arm in
a mock casting of a line, and in doing so,
hit the wine bottle with his arm causing it
to strike Stella's full glass. The contents
of both poured all over the front of her
clothes.
Stella gasped when the chilled liquid came
in contact with her body, soaking
through her white blouse and bra. JB jumped
up, grabbed a cloth napkin and began
dabbing at the rapidly spreading red stain.
Then the inevitable happened. First one
button then another popped from her blouse
and landed in the middle of the table.
JB stood dumbfounded, staring at the lacy
exposed bra. Stella snatched the
napkin from his hand and covered herself.
Her face was much redder than the
spilled wine. Riley could no longer contain
her laughter and was soon joined by
Birdie. Stella looked at them and then at
the stricken face of JB Edwards; she
began to laugh herself. Tears ran down
their cheeks. JB sat back down, relieved
there would be no repercussions from his
gaffe.
