Welcome to week 147th
week of My
Sexy Saturday. This
week’s theme is My Sexy Celebration. This is an awesome theme this week as I
celebrate something quite special. I know, I know, this is supposed to be about
my characters celebrating something but I know they understand.
The best laid plans have come
and gone as I’m still trying to get back to the Monday’s Scoop and the My So-Called
Writing Life columns. These last two weeks have been a whirlwind as we come
down to the final stretch of purchasing a home in New Mexico. And I can’t wait
to have my office set up…then…there’s the matter of the heat as it’s been
hotter than Hades here in Nevada. At any rate, at least I’m getting closer to
what I want and need to produce even more books.
Don’t forget to visit all the
awesome authors of My Sexy Saturday. Each author is showcases their book in a
fun way by sharing a sexy snippet with you. Each one is special and even though
a theme is given each week, authors are not required to follow it exactly as
every author has their definition of sexy. And then there’s the fact that not
every author writes about spaceships.
Now back to my celebration…last
time I was here…I talked about my new story. I didn’t know when the story was going
to be up for preorder or sale and though, I knew it would happen, I was on pins
and needles. I am proud to say that Sealed With A Kiss,
my story that is part of the Letterbox Love Stories
anthology, is finally up for preorder at Amazon and other major retailers. Like
I said last time, this story introduces the couple that will be the center of
the Time Travel Bureau series. Here’s the set up for this wonderful novella:
In 2084, time travelling detective, Tandi Reynolds, tipped
off by a letter, needs to stop an assassin before he kills a newly elected
leader. When she finds him in 1874, Vienna, it’s clear a cold blooded killer is
only one of her problems. Time is fleeting, so falling in love with her
contact, the charismatic Count Leopold Radetzky von Radetz, is a bad idea, but
keeping her feelings in check is not easy when she relies on him for her every
need.
Here’s my seven paragraphs from this great story:
Suddenly, the door swept open and a very tall, dark-haired man
came in. “Aloisia, quit trying to take care of me so much. Tandi and I are
already friends. We know everything about one another…don’t we, my dear?”
Tandi just stared at him for a moment, not knowing what to say.
There was something…if she could just get her mind to work. “I’m not sure if we
know everything, as a lady does hope to keep one or two secrets to herself,”
she quipped back in a voice sounding much better than she felt.
The look on Aloisia’s face when Count Radetzky plopped down on
her bed was priceless. “Why don’t you go down and get Madam Reynolds some
breakfast?”
“My Lord…have you gone mad? You are already the talk of the
town!” She flounced out and slammed the door.
If the sound didn’t hurt her head so much, Tandi would have been
laughing hysterically. All of Gabriel Getz’s instructions went out the window
with that one act. “I don’t think you really needed to do that…do you?”
She slowly sat up and drew her legs under her. “I supposed it
would be too much to ask if you have an aspirin hiding somewhere…would it?”
“They should have packed you one in that silly little suitcase
they sent with you.”
The Letterbox Love Stories will
be on sale until July 11 for only $0.99. You can currently preorder it now for
a July 4th release. What a fantastic way to celebrate life and love!
