Labor Day Blog Hop

Happy Labor Day! Thanks to Booknibbles.com for the wonderful tour! If you’re just coming across this post, you can catch the beginning HERE. I hope each of you indulges in a char-broiled burger to say goodbye to summer. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I’m very *very* sad to see summer go.  [pout] Now, on to the fun part. In the tradition of my weekly Hump Day Hotties, I’m adding a scene to the guy. I can’t help it. When I see a picture like this, my brain comes up with all kinds of scenarios. Here’s one:

So it was Labor Day weekend, and I really wasn’t looking forward to a sixteen hour drive to the coast, but Brad promised that he’d do most of the driving. He also promised we’d stop at my favorite restaurant for lunch. And dinner. By midnight, I couldn’t stay awake, and I curled up in the passenger seat and fell asleep with our favorite band in the CD player, and watching Brad nod his head and tap the beat on the steering wheel.

I don’t know how long I was out, but when I woke up, we were on the side of the road. Brad was fast asleep in the driver’s seat. I stared. I couldn’t help it.  He’d taken off his shirt, and he looked so damn beautiful in the dim light of the rest stop lights. When looking wasn’t enough anymore, I reached over and as carefully as I could, released the buckle of his belt. When he didn’t stir, I started on his button fly. I leaned back to enjoy the view, and only then noticed that Brad wasn’t sleeping anymore.

Okay, on to the next blog. I hope you make it to the end, where I’ll be giving away a copy of the winner’s choice of my backlist (you can find them here). Also, I hope to see a lot of you blog hoppers during one of the chat times listed at the end. We always have a lot of fun. See you there!

Six Sentence Sunday 8/29/10

Welcome back. Today’s Six Sentences (+) continue from last week (I feel like I need to insert some sappy soap-opera music here or something).

.

“I need to get going too.” Brynn gathered her purse, and tucked a tip under her water glass. “I’ll wait for your email. After I look through it, I’ll give you a call.”

Susan nodded and squeezed out of the booth. “Call me if you need anything tonight after you talk to Jack. I’m free after six, even if you just want to go for a drink.”

Brynn held the front door for her friend. “I appreciate that. I’m actually looking forward to this.”

Susan flushed. “I wish I could be a fly on the wall tonight. On second thought, no I don’t. You know how I feel about confrontation.” She shuddered. “Take care Brynn.”

Six Sentence Sunday 8/22/10

Good morning everyone! I’ve got six more sentences from my WiP here, and maybe now that school is back in session I can actually get to work on some of it. Continuing from last week:

Brynn waited for the congratulatory giggle, but it never came. She rolled her eyes. Susan’s big heart wouldn’t be able to stand it if someone was hurt, even if he deserved it. “Don’t worry Sue, he won’t be destitute. He’s got a job.”

Susan dropped her focus to her cell phone on the table. “Oh…gee…I need to go. I’m showing a house at four.”

Not sure reading a book six sentences a week is the best way to do it, but at this rate, it’s about as fast as I’m writing the thing! Have a great Sunday everyone, and don’t forget to check out the official site for more SSS authors.

Six Sentence Sunday 8/15/10

Happy Sunday everyone! It’s a chilly day on top of this mountain. Autumn is in the air, and I’m not very happy about it.

My six sentence offering this week, continuing the story from last week:

He gave up gambling long before I met him. While the crew loaded the truck I read the agreement over. When I’m done with him, he’s going to have to rent a room at the YMCA.”

Brynn laughed at her friend’s shock. Susan’s face paled to a gruesome shade, and her eyes danced over Brynn’s face. “So he gets…nothing?” she squeaked.

“Nothing but the clothes on his back. And the bed where he slept with the slut, since I’m so generous.”

“Oh my God.”
