EXCERPT:
Page after page spat out from the printer. Vanessa waited for her documents to finish, tapping one foot. She bit back a curse as the machine jammed. This was the worst thing to happen. She had a one-hour deadline, and she wasn’t handy at fixing things.“Don’t be afraid to be rough with it.” She gasped as Sebastian appeared beside her. He loosened the paper and banged the printer. Like magic, the pages hurtled out again
“That’s what she said.” Childish but the line was the first thing to pop into her head.
So much for an intelligent conversation starter.
To her relief, a small smile played on his lips. “Those jokes never get old.”
“I do make myself laugh a lot.”
“You had me smiling all day after we met.”

Etched in Stone by Liv ArnoldMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Vanessa Lang
Sebastian Stone
Sebastian and Vanessa accidentally meet when they bup into one another in the dressing room while she was graduation dress shopping. From that moment she has a hard time forgetting him.
Sebastian is the CEO of Stone Corp and ever since bumping into the most gorgeous woman in the dressing room, she has been an all consuming thought.
The days after the bumping into Sebastian end up being the one she has been waiting weeks for, she was offered the position she has been waiting for weeks to hear back from. But also, one she has never though t she would have, she is given an ultimatum to keep her mom safe.
The story of Sebastian and Vanessa Quick ad steamy relationship is one I enjoyed. I loved how all things entwined and the "shut the front door" moments had me wowing. I loved the cute puns that were thrown in and how the two of them just clicked so amazing. If you enjoy office romance, CEO sexiness, a little mystery, and a bit of steam, you should give Etched in Stone a try.
~~~ He studied her, his gaze asking a question. Maybe this is what it was like to live in the moment. She gave the slightest nod, and he leaned down until their lips touched. ~~~
