Entice Me

Multi-author boxed set

I’ll Be Seeing You by Paris Brandon

A lover of action-adventure movies and vintage clothing and jewelry, I can be found most days bent over my keyboard, creating worlds where a wolf shifter saving the woman he loves from a Nazi war criminal, is all in a day’s work.

Over the past several years, I’ve had the great privilege of working with some of the most wonderful authors (and friends). This was my first boxed set, anthology, whatever you want to call an amazing collection of stories from a wonderful line-up of authors.

Anyone who knows me, knows I love a mash-up of genres and this time around, I threw werewolves and Nazi war criminals into the mix of post-WW2, Tinseltown. Did I mention the spies? I had more fun than you can imagine, indulging in my love of old movies (and of course that included the Wolfman–the black and white version!) and a hero with a major secret.

Without further ado…

Jack Howland, part of an elite group of OSS special agents can’t resist the pull of the moon or widowed USO hostess, Lulu Lane. After the war, while chasing a Nazi war criminal, their paths cross again. Will the truth about what Jack is send Lulu screaming into the night or back into his arms?

I’ll Be Seeing You by Paris Brandon (PG)

May 1944

USO Club, Los Angeles, California

There were girls in soft summer dresses, all pink and flowery, smiling and perfumed. None of them would have turned down the handsome lieutenant. Why ask her?

She placed a hand on his solid chest. “Did somebody put you up to this? Did you lose a bet or something?”

He loosened his grip and took a deep breath right before he slid her left hand to his shoulder. When his fingers brushed over the third finger of her right hand, and detected the evidence she was a widow, he uttered a harsh, whispered word that might have been a vehement curse in another language.

“Or something,” he said very clearly, his breath warm against her ear. “Have you ever felt like you’ve lost your mind?”

“Daily. What’s that got to do with you asking me to dance?”

“What’s your name?”

“Lulu Lane. What comes after Lieutenant?” she asked, trying not to get lost in the sensation of being moved around the floor by a handsome man while people stared.

“Jack. Jack Howland,” he snapped, but then he snugged her tighter to his chest and his hand drifted over her back as if he were soothing a wound.

“Asking me to dance doesn’t seem to be making you very happy. Why did you?”

He looked as if he were losing an argument only he knew about.

“I leave in two days. I shouldn’t have spoken to you, let alone asked you to dance, because no matter what I say, it’s not going to come out right.”

“It’s not going to come out at all if you keep talking in riddles.”

He looked surprised for a moment and she was gratified that she could at least break through his maddening, mysterious behavior. “I’ve got forty-eight hours left on a three-day pass and I want to spend it with you. Clear enough for you?”

It took a few moments for what he’d said to sink in, and even then she had trouble believing him. This had to be some kind of a joke.

“You’re smart, Howland; I’ll give you that. You picked out the only wallflower in the bunch—”

“I don’t want to scare you, Lulu, but you don’t fool me. I’m glad nobody else has sense enough to see past the glasses and sensible shoes. You’re an open book for the lucky somebody willing to peel back the cover.

“I’m not looking for romance. I’m looking for forty-eight hours with someone who looked back at me the same way I was looking at them.”

Are you enticed yet?

Happy Reading!
