Currently on my Kindle is Grey&#8217;s Awakening by Cameron Dane. An edited version of the blurb:<\/p>\n<p>Grey is, hands-down, one of the sexiest men Sirus has ever seen. Too bad he\u2019s an arrogant ass and his eyes are so damn cold. Every once in a while, though, Sirus thinks he sees a hint of fiery passion in the controlled man sleeping one room away.<br \/>\nFor Grey, one look at the roughly handsome Sirus puts Grey\u2019s celibacy pact in serious jeopardy. One problem: Grey doesn\u2019t believe in love, has even less patience for relationships, and he refuses to get mixed up in another messy romantic partnership that can only end badly.<\/p>\n<p>Two weeks. Two hard men. Both running like hell from love.\u00a0Look out. Something\u2019s gotta give.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><strong>Today&#8217;s Tearjerker ~\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VCdqwowpr4Q\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #333399;\"><strong>Book Snippet ~\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>From Falling Star:<\/p>\n<p><img data-attachment-id=\"7005\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/2015\/04\/saturday-status-4182015\/fssnip\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/FSSnip.png\" data-orig-size=\"807,615\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"FSSnip\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/FSSnip-300x229.png\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/FSSnip.png\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-7005 \" src=\"https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/FSSnip.png\" alt=\"FSSnip\" width=\"638\" height=\"486\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/FSSnip.png 807w, https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/FSSnip-300x229.png 300w, https:\/\/alannacoca.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/04\/FSSnip-197x150.png 197w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 638px) 100vw, 638px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Well, that&#8217;s all I have to say.
