Happy Sunday! Sexy Snippets are seven sentences taken from a work in progress or published book, brought to you every Sunday.

Today, I give you a sexy snippet from my WIP, the erotic contemporary romance A Thorned Rose in the Sand.

Having made sure his camel and the motorcycle were aligned and the rope stretched, Ragab gave his strong companion a slap on the butt. The camel jerked forward and pulled while the girl gave gas and released the clutch — and out of the sand hole jumped the motorcycle with a growl, so suddenly she lost her balance and let go of the handles. But right before it tipped over to a side, she climbed up and forced it upright. Impressive. She had the ability and grace of a horse rider.

Ragab made the camel continue to pull until the motorcycle reached the hard track, then he went back to untie the rope.

Motor idling, she sat panting, gloved hands in her lap, her emerald colored eyes shiny. He avoided looking at her, because although she was dirtier and looking more haggard than any woman he’d ever seen, the way her lips parted to breathe and the way her black, sweat-soaked top molded to her heaving chest — to the two round mounds of her chest — made him uncomfortable.

He should be man enough to disregard these details and focus on rolling the rope, but he hadn’t been with a woman in a long time, and it was obvious from the stirring in his pants, his body had certain needs to sate.

After his studies in London, Ragab has returned to the nomadic lifestyle of his Bedouin family and the majestic silence of the Sahara. His days are spent herding camels and dreaming of the perfect wife, until a beautiful and extraordinarily feisty bike driver stuck in a sand dune turns his quiet world upside down.

When the rat-race of life in a big U.S. city becomes too much, Stevie Jones decides to change track and live her wildest dream – compete against the tough guys in a thrilling motorcycle rally across Morocco. But to her surprise, the real excitement is to be found away from the race track, in the shifting sands of the desert…
