“I like it better when you call me Morrison.”

“What else do you like?”

Bracing his hands against the door, fencing her in, Morrison gazed intently at her, his deep brown eyes smoldering with desire. Inwardly chastising herself for her salacious quip, Karma sucked in a breath. Why did I say that? Why am I flirting with a man who is totally out of my league? Her loose lips had gotten her into trouble, and the longer he stared at her the harder her limbs shook. Her head was spinning, but she projected confidence, not fear, and said, “Thank you for a wonderful evening, Morrison. Good night.”

“It’s midnight,” he announced, lowering his mouth to her face. “Happy birthday, beautiful. I hope this year brings prosperity, excitement and adventure. They don’t call it the dirty thirties for nothing, so throw caution to the wind and own every moment.”

Shivering as his lips moved gently against hers, she willed her legs not to buckle. Deep down, she craved his touch, his kiss, but she wasn’t brave enough to make the first move.

“Life is not remembered in days, Karma. It is remembered in moments, and this moment will remain with me forever.”

Dear Reader,

Karma Sullivan and Morrison Drake are opposites in every sense of the word. The only thing they have in common is their mutual dislike! That’s what makes Pleasure in His Kiss such a delicious read. After a passionate first kiss, Morrison can’t get the sultry salon owner out of his mind. The no-nonsense judge sets his sights on Karma, and she isn’t strong enough to resist his seductive charms. I hope you have fun “watching” Karma and Morrison flirt at a ritzy New York City wedding, enjoy their romantic marathon date at beautiful Coopers Beach and root for them despite the obstacles in their way.

Kimani readers, I can’t thank you enough for your support and encouragement over the years. I’d love to hear what you think of Karma and Morrison’s sizzling love story, so connect with me at pamelayaye@aol.com, or on my social media pages.

All the best in life and love,

Pamela Yaye

About the Publisher

Chapter 1

Karma Sullivan didn’t know who was shouting inside her swank, full-service beauty salon, Beauty by Karma, but she was going to find out. Balancing the books would have to wait. Her customers were probably having a spirited discussion about sex and relationships, but things had obviously gotten out of hand. It sounded as if World War Three had broken out on the main floor, and since nothing mattered more to Karma than maintaining the elegance and dignity of her salon, she dropped her pen on the April spreadsheets, and shot to her feet.

Her gaze fell on the mahogany desk across the room, and her shoulders sagged. Karma could only wonder where Jazz was. She’d met Jazmine “Jazz” Figueroa at cosmetology school six years earlier, and they’d bonded over their love of fashion, pop culture, Idris Elba movies and exotic cuisine. Hiring the gregarious esthetician to be the manager of her beauty salon was a no-brainer. Karma enjoyed working alongside her bestie, and thought they made a formidable team. Unfortunately, her happiness had been short-lived. Jazz used to be a model employee, who gave a hundred percent to Beauty by Karma, but these days she came to work late, spent more time on her cell than with clients and left early. And when Karma spoke to Jazz yesterday about her concerns she’d mumbled an apology, then quickly changed the subject.
