Phone Sex and the Neanderthal

I'm sharing a shorter excerpt from Call Me Yours today than I have been sharing, but I wanted you to get to know Caitlin and Simon a little better. They aren't always having sex all the time. 

At this point Caitlin is realizing she might be in a little over her head with this alpha male. She's just dropped the bomb that she wants to pursue a career in the phone sex biz, Simon is not so eager about the prospect.



"What are you talking about?" Simon asked Caitlin.

"Phone sex," she responded. "I'm good at it, right? Liz knows some girl who does it and makes tons of money."

"No." Simon shook his head as he unlocked his car.

Caitlin stopped walking and looked up at him. "What?"

"I said, no. You aren't doing that," he said. He opened the passenger door and gestured for her to get in. "Come on, let's get you home."

She remained where she stood and folded her arms, "I don't believe I was asking your permission."

"You wouldn't like doing it. I'm just saying, it would probably make you uncomfortable. Come down to the bar tomorrow, I'll show you around and we can figure out some shifts for you."

She shook her head, "How is flaunting my cleavage and getting guys drunk so they'll tip me any different?"

"Who said anything about flaunting your cleavage?" Simon began to raise his voice.

"That's how waitresses get tips!" she shouted at him.

"Says who?" he yelled back.

They were interrupted by Amanda flinging her arms around Caitlin. "Gotta go, Ben says it's time to leave."

Caitlin said goodbye to her friend and waved to Ben. She reluctantly got into Simon's car and refolded her arms across her chest.

"Did you have fun tonight?" Simon asked, breaking the silence.

"Yeah, until some Neanderthal thought he could tell me how to live my life," she bit out.

Simon sighed, "I'm not telling you how to live your life. But if you need some cash then working as a waitress is a lot better than whoring yourself out."

She rolled her eyes, "Whatever." She was too tired to fight with him, she didn't agree, but she knew this conversation was going nowhere. She had plenty of practice from living a life with her father to know when a pig headed man would not be swayed.

"Keep it up," he warned.

Caitlin's body responded to the edge in his tone. "Keep what up?"

"If you're trying to push my buttons, you're succeeding."


The drive was mercifully quick and Simon leaned over, giving her a heated kiss before he exited the car. He was high handed and a know-it-all to boot, why the hell did she find that so sexy?


Caitlin comes from a privileged upbringing and has the reputation of being a bratty, spoiled princess. Her father cuts her off financially when she refuses to enter law school. Now she needs to figure out a way to make it on her own, with no help from anyone. When her friend mentions taking on a job as a phone sex operator, Caitlin has her misgivings, but when her rent gets hiked and her bills start piling up she figures she has nothing to lose.

Simon is the boy next door, literally. He's a few years older than the recent college grad and he has no time for immature girls who don't take life seriously-- especially ones full of sass. But when Simon finds Caitlin in a dangerous situation he is not above rescuing her, then scolding her, and threatening her with a spanking.

Despite his old-fashioned ways, Caitlin is head over heels for Simon, and the feeling is mutual. Can she come to terms with Simon's methods for dealing with disobedience? Can Simon curb his high-handed ways enough to not lose the girl he is hopelessly falling in love with?
