Out from Under You by Sophie Swift Book Blitz
Today's Release Blitz is Sophie Swift's new novel "Out from Under You" here on The Phantom Paragrapher.
Synopsis: Out from Under You - Book#1 Smart Girls Finish First - Sophie Swift - August 2013
“Love is an earthquake. It comes when you least expect it. It rips the ground clear away. Right out from under you.”
The day Lia Smart met Grayson Walker, eight years ago, was the day she fell helplessly in love with him. Coincidentally, it was the same day Grayson fell in love with someone else: Lia’s smarter, sexier, superior-in-every-way older sister, Alex.
Now, nearly a decade later, Alex and Grayson are long over and twenty-two-year-old Lia has finally managed to forget all those lonely nights she spent pining after her sister’s boyfriend. But when Grayson unexpectedly arrives back in town with Alex for Labor Day weekend and the two announce that they’re not only back together but engaged, all the feelings that Lia buried suddenly come bubbling back to the surface.
But Lia is no longer the awkward, gangly tomboy she was at fourteen. Far from it. And Grayson is conflicted by the lustful thoughts he’s now having for her. He knows he could never act on those thoughts, however. Grayson has always prided himself on being one of the “good guys.” But as the weekend wears on, he’s finding this new grown-up version of Lia more and more impossible to resist…
Heartbreaking and sexy with a dash of humor, Sophie Swift crafts a passionate, unforgettable tale about desire, growing up, and the kind of love that shakes us to the core.
**Contains adult situations and explicit content. Recommended for ages 17+

Grayson :
Lia stands motionless at the edge of the
water, staring out into the darkened horizon, as though she might find answers
there. As though the world beyond this shore might make more sense. The full
moon casts a faint light on the side of her face, causing her skin to glow.
The sand hides the sound of my heavy
footfalls as I stride toward her.
When my hand tightens around her arm, she
is startled but doesn’t scream. When I pull her around to face me, she opens
her mouth to protest. To continue the tirade she began in the parking lot of
the bar. But when my lips crush decisively against hers, claiming her with a
consuming, covetous kiss, everything falls silent.
Only the waves dare to breathe.
