BLOG TOUR: Animate Me by Ruth Clampett

Animate Me is a fun and sexy contemporary romance.

Love struck animator, Nathan, has set his sights on Brooke, the Director of Development at their animation studio.

He has worshipped her from afar for years and even created a comic book heroine named B-Girl in her likeness. When their paths cross he seizes the opportunity to make a good impression. As they grow closer a serious hindrance looms…her dwindling romance with Arnauld, head of the animation studio.

When Arnauld realizes that Nathan is threatening his relationship with Brooke, he goes after him and it sparks an outrageous uprising at the studio. Havoc ensues from antics only a building full of creative cartoon people can create. In the midst of the drama Brooke has to decide whether to follow her heart or risk her impressive career, while Nathan pulls out all the stops to “woo” his girl.

The conclusion has you cheering for our unlikely hero to capture his B-Girl’s heart…while he wins our hearts as well.

Excerpt:

I close my eyes as her hand moves over me. With my eyes shut, I'm acutely aware of the symphony of sensations: the warmth of her fingers, the softness of her breasts pressed against my knees, and the quickening pace of her breath as her hand tightens and finds its slow rhythm.
She suddenly stops and waits, still as can be.
"Well, aren't you going to tell me?" she challenges.
"Tell me?"
"Tell me what you want." She looks determined, unyielding. "Or maybe you aren't so sure what you want."
Why’s she challenging me? But then I start to understand that she needs this from me. It's important for her to see how strong I can be with her, without my costume on. "I know what I want," I assure her. "I always know what I want."
"Really?" she smirks playfully.
"I've always wanted you," I point out.
"Anything else?"
