Healthy Addictions‘Excavations’

Blurb:

While volunteering on an archaeological dig, Gina and Mike discover new and exciting ways to help their workaholic professor relieve stress – and he introduces them to one or two methods of his own, which are far from academic.

Excerpt:

‘Go on, Gina,’ Mike said nodding to the small stand of oak and beech trees where The Professor stood having what he no doubt thought was a private moment. ‘I dare you.’

‘Shut up,’ I hissed. ‘He’ll hear us.’

‘If you can’t heat up the Ice Man, who can? I know you want to.’ Mike gave me a playful shove in the professor’s direction, and I responded with an elbow in his ribs resulting in a low grunt. I couldn’t take my eyes off the man in the trees giving himself a good grope. He’d asked us to call him Ed, but since I was only a lowly volunteer who never got close enough to have a real conversation with him, I still thought of him as The Professor. Seeing him this way was like a fantasy come true. Possibly he had stepped into the trees for a pee, but he certainly wasn’t anxious to zip up and get back to work. I wasn’t sure he could even if he’d wanted to. He leaned back against a young oak tree. His eyes were closed, his fly was open.
