The Beauty of Us by Kristen Proby - Review and Excerpt Tour
From New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby comes a sexy, new standalone contemporary romance in her Fusion Series, THE BEAUTY OF US, releasing August 22, 2017! Grab your copy today and get to know Trevor and Riley!
New York Times bestselling author Kristen Proby delivers another sizzling novel in her delectable and sexy Fusion series.
Riley Gibson is over the moon at the prospect of having her restaurant, Seduction, on the Best Bites TV network. This could be the big break she's been waiting for. But the idea of having an in-house show on a regular basis is a whole other matter. Their lives would be turned upside down, and convincing Mia, her best friend and head chef of Seduction, that having cameras in her kitchen every day is a good idea is daunting. Still, Riley knows it's an opportunity she can't afford to pass on. And when she meets Trevor Cooper, the show's executive producer, she's stunned by their intense chemistry.
Trevor's sole intention is to persuade Riley to allow Best Bites TV to do a show on her restaurant. But when he walks into Riley's office, he stops dead in his tracks. The professional, aloof woman on the phone is incredibly beautiful and funny. But can he convince her that he's interested in Riley for himself? Or is he using the undeniable pull between them to persuade her to agree to his offer?

Review
(By Cindy)
With each book in the Fusion Series, I grow to love the
women of Seduction more and more. As professionals, they are a strong, competent
and successful team of women. As friends, they support each other in every way,
and they have each other’s backs all the way. As individuals, each one is her
own woman with her own needs, fears, and vulnerabilities. I think that’s what makes each of their
stories so appealing. The Beauty of Us
is Riley’s story.
Riley is tired. Actually, she’s sick and tired. The whole dating scene, on-line dating in
particular, is just one disappointment after another. She’s all but given up on
the prospect of ever finding someone who’s interested in more than sex. Trevor is the handsome producer for Good
Bites TV. Overseeing the filming of a documentary on Seduction and the women
who run it, he’s about to change Riley’s dating perspective for good.
For me, Riley’s story, perhaps more than any of the other
women, has an element of realty that makes her so relatable. I loved her
honesty. I loved Trevor’s patience with her. I also loved the maturity of their
relationship when it came to outside influences and the challenges of a
long-distance romance. I absolutely
gobbled this story up! (Pun intended).
Five yummy stars!
~TREVOR~
Riley walks out of the bar and
glances up, spotting me.
“Hi.” I offer her a smile and
motion for her to join me. She sits, sets her iPad aside, and squares her
shoulders.
I love a woman with grit.
“Why are you here?” she asks.
“I’m having lunch,” I reply, and
gesture to the salad sitting in front of me. “It’s delicious. Adding the
brussels sprouts is smart.”
“I’ll pass that along to Mia,”
she says, and then laughs. “I guess you heard the part where I asked the girls
to not swear.”
“I did,” I reply, and patiently
butter a piece of warm bread. “Don’t worry about that stuff. They’re adults.”
“With potty mouths,” she says.
“And we can bleep stuff out, or
ask them to rephrase. You’ve already got the gig, Riley. I wouldn’t be here
otherwise. This isn’t an audition.”
“I know.” She sighs and reaches
over to take a piece of my bread, surprising and delighting me. “I just want
things to go smoothly.”
“Perhaps you should order lunch
too.”
“I don’t have time,” she says,
and then her blue eyes widen as she realizes what she just did. “I’m so sorry.
I eat when I’m stressed out, and I didn’t—”
“No.” I hold my hand up to stop
her. “It’s fine. I like that you’re relaxed with me. I think you need to relax
more often.”
“What are you, my life coach
now?”
“If you like. Did you cancel
those dating sites like I suggested?”
She bites her lip and looks to
the side, then nods. “I did.”
“Good.” I take a bite of salad
and nod. “Are you sure you don’t want some food?”
“I rarely have time to eat,”
Riley says, and checks the time on her phone. “In fact, I should go. I have to
meet the roofer at my house.”
“What’s wrong with your roof?”
“It’s old,” she says with a
shrug. “That’s what happens when you buy an old house. I’m fixing it up a
little at a time.”
I nod, and find that I don’t want
her to go quite yet. I want to talk more, to learn more about her.
“Why don’t you come to my
apartment tonight and I’ll cook you dinner?”
She pauses and stares at me for a
moment. “Why?" I laugh and set my fork down.
“Because I asked
you to.”

EXCERPT:
“There seems to be an explosion in the jackass population,” I reply, and sigh, passing my glass to Kat for a refill.
“Where are you meeting them?” he asks, and I bite my lip.
“I don’t want to tell you.”
“Online,” he says with a nod.
“I didn’t say that!”
“Didn’t have to. If you met him at the gym or the grocery store, or somewhere else in person, you wouldn’t be embarrassed.”
“I’m not embarrassed.”
“Yes, you are. Otherwise, you wouldn’t mind telling me.”
“Fine.” I sigh and rub my forehead with my fingers. “I met them online.”
“Stop that,” he says.
“I don’t know where else I’d meet people,” I reply. “I’m at work at least fifty hours a week. I don’t do school or clubs or church, and I rarely go to the grocery store because I always eat here.”
“I could stop feeding you,” Mia interjects and I toss her a glare.
“I’m just saying, if you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always gotten.”
“I don’t understand any of the words you just said.” I squint at him, trying to process.
“Switch it up,” he says with a grin. “Try to meet people somewhere else. I mean, you didn’t meet me online, and I’m not an asshole.”
“Sure, you’re cute, and you look like you have your shit together, but I suspect that once I got to know you I’d learn that you have mommy issues and fourteen dogs.”
“You might,” he says with a thoughtful nod. “I do hide those things well. All I’m saying is, stop using the dating sites and try meeting people in real life.”
“Yeah. Easy for you to say.” I pout into my wineglass. “Do I need to send you some money for this counseling session?”
“Nah, the first one’s on me,” he says, tossing that crazy-hot smile at me again. “Just don’t combine Star Wars and Star Trek anymore and that’s payment enough for me.”
He pulls a few bills out of his wallet and tosses them on the bar, then stands to leave.
“Have a good night, and good luck,” he says.
“Thanks.” Just as he’s almost out of view, I call out. “Wait! I didn’t ask your name.”
“Trevor,” he says, and my stomach immediately does at least four cartwheels. “Trevor Cooper.”
“You’re early,” is all I can think to say. My cheeks burning, my fingertips immediately tremble. “You’re not supposed to be here for two more days.”
“I like to come early. Get the lay of the land, that sort of thing.” He smiles and waves. “See you in a couple of days.”
He walks away, and as soon as I hear the front door close, I turn to my friends and just stare at them in utter horror.
“Tell me that didn’t just happen.”

Once upon a time, a man signed a napkin that he knew was a contract. As an esteemed businessman, he forgot one very important rule—he forgot to read the fine print.
