I'm excited to announce the release of AIN'T TOO PROUD TO BEG by my dear friend, former critique partner and best selling author Chicki Brown! I love Chicki's writing and adore her books, which tend to
be entertaining and thought-provoking.
And her latest book has hit the shelves!
AIN'T TOO PROUD TO BEG is a story about Hollywood film
star Vaughn Breland, and physical therapist Trenyce Clark. When a man loses
everything he values, can he find something more precious in return?
Hollywood film star Vaughn Breland has wrecked his beloved Lamborghini, lost
his latest movie role, the use of his legs and possibly his fabulous good
looks. He’s depressed and mad at the world then he meets Trenyce Clark, his new
physical therapist. Trenyce, and her beautiful three-year-old daughter, give
him a new outlook on life.
HERE IS A TEASER
“Any other questions?” The
statuesque therapist asked.
I shook my head. She touched my arm, and I could’ve sworn I
felt a familiar stirring, if it hadn’t been for the pain pushing it away. My
good eye studied her face. She was definitely attractive, and she smelled like
good perfume. Could even be beautiful with her hair and makeup done. “I’m not
sure what I’m going to do yet.”
“We can talk about this another time. I don’t want
to tire you out. If you need anything else, just have one of the nurses contact
me. My office is just upstairs. Please give serious consideration to putting
off the move to California.”
The second she left the room,
Devon said, “I’m with her, man. Craig was serious about his offer. It would be
cheaper and safer, even though I know the idea of staying here in Ski-ville
doesn’t thrill you. But you’d be living in luxury.”
Finally giving the option
consideration, I said, “I guess I would need a nurse.”
“Yeah, until you can get around
by yourself. I’m sure the hospital can arrange private duty. Do you want me to
check into it for you?”
“I’d appreciate it, man.” I
hesitated. “But I don’t want her as my physical therapist. You got me?”
“Why not?”
“For one thing, I don’t want a
woman.”
Devon’s eyes widened. “Are you kidding me? You, the lover of all things female?” He
snickered.
“Not when I’m incapacitated.”
“I just met her. You’d change your mind if you saw
her. She’s beautiful. If I was single, I
wouldn’t need to be convinced to let her massage me.” That got a snort from me.
“Since when have you ever had a problem with a beautiful woman?”
“Look at me, Dev. I can’t even
take a piss by myself, and for all I know, I might look like Freddy Krueger
under these bandages. Not very sexy.”
“Oh, that legendary Breland pride is getting in
the way. Tell me why you need to be sexy with your therapist. You wouldn’t
start working with her until you’re on your feet anyway. Maybe they can find
you another PT. One that’s less attractive.” Devon snickered. “It’s up to you,
V. Just tell me what you need me to do.”
“Get Dr. Liu for me. He can tell
Ms. Carter my decision.”
“All right, I’m going to the
nurses’ station to see if someone knows where to find him. You’re such a punk,
you know that?” Devon exited the room on a laugh.
The expense of transport back to
L.A. had made my decision for me. Although it had been years since I’d lived
under someone else’s roof, I decided to take Craig up on his offer.
