No doubt about it, Esi Darfour from the Destiny Series, is
awesome. I wish I was as fantastic as her, but I’m only as fabulous as I can
be. She has a confidence, outgoing nature,
and an attitude I wish I’d been born with. What makes Esi so great, you ask? Even
if you didn’t, I’m happy to share.
1. She’s a people person. Other than the hero, Adam, she
loves hanging out and can make friends with anyone. All because she’s an
extrovert. Who doesn’t love outgoing people? (I’m an introvert, so I envy that
about her)
2. Esi is one of the best Midwives who has ever existed. She
goes the extra mile to ensure the safety of her patients.
5. Need a bit of humor? She’ll provide it. More of a wise
ass than a comedian, she’ll still make you laugh.
6. The woman loves color in her clothes. She’s confident in
herself to not do it for attraction, but because she likes her clothes to match
her personality.
7. If you expect her to be humble and meek, you’ll wait a
long time. Esi speaks her mind whether a person wants to hear it or not.
8. She’s Esi. Enough said.
Pick up a copy of Midwife to Destiny and Destiny Mine and
get to know Esi for yourself. They’re both on sale for $1.99 at Amazon and All
Romance eBooks.

Enjoy the following excerpt for Destiny
Mine:
Her gaze travelled down his
muscular body. Unlike many of the other doctors who tended to gain a belly as
they grew older and settled into the comforts of married life, Adam Quarshie
could overshadow any man in his late twenties. His stomach had remained flat
and his muscles strained against his yellow button-down shirt when he moved.
She took her time raking
her gaze up his body and to his face. Her gasp of embarrassment stuck in her
throat as her eyes met his.
Why did he have to have
such an adorable grin? God could’ve at least rotted his teeth to save the
hearts of women all over Ghana.
“See something you like,
Esi?”
She cleared her throat.
“Yes, I do. Your shoes are nice. Where can I get a pair for my brother?”
He chuckled. “My shoes.
Hmm. I got them on Oxford Street in Osu.”
“Thanks.”
He moved towards her, and
she refused to step back as he crowded her. He smelled amazing, like he was
fresh from a shower. She struggled not to move closer or inhale deeper.
“Or I could take you.” His
voice came out soft yet had a distinct rumble.
Did the man not know how to
be anything but seductive?
If she checked her pulse,
she knew it would be way above the normal range. She snorted as she stepped
around him and went to the patient’s bedside. “I’m going home. You did a great
job.” She tilted her head to view the child’s face cradled in the new mother’s
arms then smiled at the newborn’s mother. “You were able to gather the strength
to push the baby out. You are a strong woman, Ama.”
The woman ducked her head.
“Thank you.”
Esi turned to Adam, not
bothering to hide her annoyance. “Are there any other patients you want to
see?”
“I’ll come back to do ward
rounds later. How about going to Osu?”
“I’d rather…rather….”
Fatigue had blocked her brain. Later on in the day, long after it was too late,
she’d think of any number of things she could have said to put him in his
place.
He raised an eyebrow. Their
perfect arch sat over slanted dark brown eyes.
“You’d rather what?”
“Eat a live snail.”
He scrunched his face. “Disgusting.
No Osu for you, then. Next time, I’ll ask to take you somewhere that won’t make
you prefer eating something raw and slimy over hanging out with me.”
“No such place exists,
Quarshie.” They walked, rather, she stalked while he strutted, down the hallway
towards the nurse’s station.
“I’m sure there is
somewhere, and one day I’m going to take you there.”
She didn’t bother to look
at him. “In your dreams.”
He winked. “Always in my
dreams.”
Her heart skipped a beat as
Sade’s classic song “Smooth Operator” came to mind. She regarded him through
narrowed eyes as he headed towards the door. His heartbreaking ways didn’t
appeal to her at all. Everyone knew relationships weren’t his thing. She’d
never even consider going out on a date with him. She knew too many casualties
of his charm. The type of guy who would go to all sorts of lengths to get a
woman on his radar. Once he caught and used her, he moved to the next one…or
two. After having once dated a womanizer, she wouldn’t subject herself to that kind
of man again.
No way. Not her. Never
