Enjoy this excerpt from Because Beards and then preorder the entire anthology for just 99 cents! “Yeah—Well—I—” I take another drink. Damn it, Amanda, fucking act like you’re literate. “I know what it’s like to chase something that once seemed impossible and come up on the better end.” “Something tells me you’re not talking about a man?” He smirks. I chuckle. “No, not a dick. I never chase dicks.” “You’ve got quite a mouth on you.” He runs his hand over the whiskers of his beard and raises his brows. “I like it. So, what is it you do chase?” “I’m a writer.” I state proudly. “Oh . . . that explains it.” He nods as though he already knows my life story, and I bristle. “What is that supposed to mean?” He leans forward, resting his elbows and forearms on the counter so our faces are inches apart. I’m trying to be pissed here, but with him this close I get distracted studying the way the blue in his eyes catches the dim light. “People watching,” he murmurs, his tone a seductive allure. “Huh?” I’m still lost in those eyes and don’t remember exactly what we’re discussing. “The way you watch people. It’s something a writer does. Finds entertainment and joy in the mundane of life. It’s beautiful, really.” “I never thought of it that way.” “So, what is it that you write?” His voice is back to a casual pitch and I relax. “Romance.” “Ah . . . I knew with that mouth you’d have to have a naughty side. What kind of romance? Fifty Shades or the Fabio-grandma type stuff?” I roll my eyes. “You do realize there’s so much more to it than that?” A little laugh escapes my lips and his gaze drops to my mouth. I feel the need to lick the parched skin. Fuck. I’m so screwed. “Only if you want to be,” he says and his eyes blaze with the same heat I feel all over my skin. “Huh?” “You said, ‘Fuck, I’m so screwed,’ and not gonna lie. I’d like to help you with that.” For the rest of No Joke by Kacey Shea you'll have to preorder Because Beards! Thank you for helping us make a difference to support the real life men with love by raising money for prostate cancer and treatment by your love of reading.
