All Spiced Up!
Well, ho, ho, ho. Sanyukta Aggarwal gave a little hum of appreciation as she stared across the street at what was, in her considered opinion, the sexiest body she'd ever seen. Leaning one shoulder against her mother's porch pillar, she sipped the viciously strong coffee and decided that this was her reward for moving back home to be closer to her mother.
"Looks like the Shekhawat's are gearing up for the town's annual holiday decorating contest", her mother said from inside the front door.
"I'd love to win that someday, but I'm not very clever with the big outdoor display." she continued
It was a pleasant wintery site in the city of Dalhousie wherein Sanyukta had just moved to be with her mother, After her dad passing away, she was finally back after such a long time. Though bitter memories still soared in some part.
"I'll bet we can come up with an awesome idea that's guaranteed to win," Sanyukta decided.
Her mom had been through so much"a lot of it because of her. Sanyukta's initial solution had been to leave town"out of sight, out of mind and all that. But she'd missed her mom. When she'd heard an opportunity in Dalhousie, she'd taken it as a sign to come back home. And now that she had, she was going to do her mom proud. So Sanyukta tossed a warm smile over her shoulder and promised,
"I'll help. This year will be your year." With another wistful glance and a laugh, her mom warned her not to get too chilly, then returned to baking yet another batch of gingerbread. Sanyukta leaned against the pillar again, eyeing the sexy person across the street.
Despite her hot coffee and even hotter view, she shivered. After five years of Mumbai-living, Dalhousie, in the winter was a shock to her system. It was freaking cold here. She'd bundled up in a thick sweater under her fleece-lined denim jacket, jeans and two pairs of socks tucked into a sweet pair of wedge-heeled hiking boots.
Totally impractical, but a girl had to have priorities. The hottie across the street didn't seem to have a problem with the temperature. Like her, he was wearing jeans... just jeans. But instead of layers and a knit beret, he wore a white T-shirt. Not that she was complaining.
This gave her a great view of his rounded biceps as he swung his hammer at a big slab of wood. His hair, dark enough to contrast nicely where it brushed the collar of his shirt, gleamed in the morning light. Her gloved fingers itched to test the weight and texture of his hair to see if it was as wavy and thick as it looked. Occupational hazard, she figured.
Though the tingle of desire in her belly had nothing to do with anything and everything to do with attraction. Then he turned. Sanyukta 's eyes focused on the nice fit of his jeans, noting they were just as promising from the front as the back. The tingle heated up as desire intensified. Her gaze took a slow, appreciative slide up his flat belly, over a chest worth sighing about and paused briefly to give a little hum at the impressive width of his shoulders. Nicer than she'd remembered, even.
Anticipation tight, she let her gaze rest on his face. Dark hair fell across his forehead, giving a little-boy sweetness to a face that was hard planes and masculine angles. Sharp cheekbones, a chiselled jaw and a mouth that just begged to be kissed. Yum. Her eyes met his"and widened in shock. Though she was too far away to see the colour, she knew those deep-set eyes were a vivid brown. Randhir Shekhawat.
Well, shit. Sanyukta 's fingers constricted on the mug. Figured. The sexiest guy she'd seen seen in years was the one who'd ruined her high school reputation. It looked like paybacks would be topping her holiday list this year.
