Welcome to week 74th week of My Sexy Saturday. The
week’s theme is Our Sexy New Year and it’s all the New Year. Aren’t the
beginnings of a new year wonderful? It’s as if you can reset the clock to do
anything you want. Lose weight, find a new love, buy that big purchase you’ve
always wanted or maybe just slow down and enjoy the life you have. I’ve been
enjoying my life so far this year.
We had visitors this year and
I meet my youngest’s new girlfriend, who is a joy. We did very little as the
weather wouldn’t permit us too much while they were here. And on the day they
left, things totally changed. This year has started with a bang and the
Austrian weather is so very, very strange. We’ve had snow and now we’re having
a heat wave that is wonderful. It’s soon to be followed by more snow and rain
with temperatures falling yet again. But for today, we decided to enjoy the sun
and get out.
My holiday giveaway has been
extended until tomorrow. If you haven’t entered, please go and do so. There are
lots of great gifts from here in Veinna…just go to my other blog www.awriterinvienna.blogspot.com to see what it’s all about…it’s part of a
multi-author reader holiday giveaway spree. Every author on the list over there
is giving something to their readers. I’m giving 5 gifts to my readers all over
the world. Yes, you heard me right. I will ship to you no matter where you
live. Be aware, you do have to do one thing from the list, as well as the fact
you won’t get it before Christmas. I’m so slow this year and I totally
apologize for being behind the curve but I think you’ll enjoy what I’m giving
away. Remember to leave your email address so I can get back to you with your
gift.
This week, I’m again sharing
sexy seven paragraphs from my book The
View From Santa’s Sleigh. I know I
use it a lot but this will be the last week as next week, I’ll be starting with
a whole new story. It’s the only one that has anything remotely close to being
around a new year and those celebrations. Here’s the setup:
Tessa, very let
down by love, is surprised to find herself comforted by the red-suited man
himself on Christmas Eve. Thinking that he is the figment of her slightly tipsy
mind, she pours her heart out to him hoping for just a little love,
understanding and a good sexual encounter. Tessa gets more than she bargained
for with an elf named Jedrick and both get the Christmas present of a lifetime.
In only a short time, they find themselves realizing their love is for more
than just the holiday season and more than just the sexual romp they had
envisioned.
But Tessa has
obligations in the real world and Jedrick needs to begin designs for next year.
He gives Tessa a very special locket, telling her to use it anytime and he will
come right away. Once back in her world, Tessa finds it has lost its charm and knows
that her place is with the elf she loves, Jedrick. Their very humorous
love-story is told amidst the backdrop of a post Christmas North Pole and the
winter in Reno
This was a wonderful series to write. I love building this world with my
elves and am going to get back to it soon. It has Scotland in it and
I’ve been too far away from that country recently. I hope you find the wonder
of Santa’s Elves, Scotland, love and Christmas just as appealing as I do!
“Then what’s the problem?” he
questioned, moving closer to her.
Tessa hiccupped and squelched what
could only be a sob. “I don’t want to leave Angie alone. She doesn’t have
anyone either.”
Jedrick took her in his arms. “Just
because you’ll live in the North Pole doesn’t mean you can’t keep in contact
with your friends. I would never do that to you.”
Tessa pulled back and looked at him.
“You wouldn’t?”
“Never,” he whispered and caressed
her head. “I want you to be happy. I love you too much to keep you totally
isolated if you didn’t like it. Besides, we have email.”
Tessa smiled and threw her arms
around him.
“I really do love you,” she said,
raining kisses along his face and neck.
“I have a bone to pick with you,
though.” He looked at her fiercely for a moment, looking from Tessa’s face to
Angie’s expectant one. “You told her?”
