Yesterday I tried to tempt you with the very appetizing cover for Dinner
for Two by Eileen Griffin.
If the cover by itself wasn’t enough to wet your appetite for this
story, the following blurb and excerpt might make you hungry for more.

BLURB:
Sonia Davenport has dreams of
coordinating and planning special events. When she’s given the opportunity to
plan a dinner for her boss and his shareholders, she jumps at the chance to
make everything perfect. Helping her plan the special night is the head chef of
the restaurant, Tony Mancinni, who is not only charming but goes out of his way
to make Sonia feel special during the entire planning process.
The dinner party almost turns
disastrous when an employee mixes up the orders and sets out the wrong food. In
a mad rush to save the dinner, Sonia and Tony realize their attraction to each
other when things heat up in the kitchen. However, Tony has to convince Sonia
that he wants more than just an extra set of hands in his restaurant – he wants
her to stay the night so he can convince her to stay for good.
EXCERPT:
Tony gently rubbed his finger along her bottom lip.
"I had hoped everything would be perfect tonight because I wanted to
impress you. When you came in for brunch that first Sunday and laid out your
plans, not only were you beautiful, but you had a detailed description of what
you wanted. On the catering side of things, you have no idea how attractive
that is. Then, when you came in for your tasting, I didn't think I was going to
make it through the afternoon without asking you out. But I have a strict rule:
Don't date the clients until after the function is over. So I waited. Do you
have any idea how hard it was to wait?"
Sonia shook her head slightly, then let her lips
part. Instead of replying to him, she slid her tongue out to meet his finger,
gently caressing the tip. He hissed in a breath, his eyes fixated on her tongue
and lips. Feeling emboldened by his words, she leaned closer and drew his
finger deeper inside her mouth, wrapping her lips around it as she laved it
with her tongue.
"Sonia," he whispered. "You're so
beautiful. But I didn't ask you up here for this."
She leaned back, his finger sliding out of her
mouth. All the nerves and doubts she'd felt earlier were replaced by a heat
that was coursing through her. She'd felt it all night in the kitchen with him
and it was stronger now that she knew he wanted her as badly as she wanted him.
"I'm glad you asked me
up here, Tony. But if we're being honest with each other, I think dinner can
wait. You see, I've lost my appetite. For food, that is."
