It’s week 21 at My Sexy Saturday and welcome.
Good morning from beautiful
Henderson, Nevada where I’m attending the Hot Mojave Knights conference. This
town is part of the urban sprawl of Las Vegas, Nevada or as many of you know it…Sin
City. What a wonderful place to be for My Sexy Saturday!
My Sexy Saturday is a weekly
blog hop where authors share sexy snippets of their books with 7 words, 7
sentences or 7 paragraphs. Each week we aim to entertain readers through our snippets
and excerpts posted. This is for our readers as we value and appreciate each
one of you.
This is my third week of sharing
a snippet from my finished book called Loving the Scotsman. It is currently on
the desk of an agent. Please keep your fingers crossed for me. This is a story told in 1st person
POV from both the heroine and hero. The
approach is unique and I hope you like it. The lovers are being drawn together
after a 15 year hiatus. We’re still in the first chapter of the story. Here’s
my sexy 7 sentences for the week. Enjoy!
“Old habits,” she whispered and yawned. “Thank you…very…”
Her voice trailed off and I knew my chances were reduced to zero for the
night. I observed the even rise and fall of her chest, one hand poised on her
breast, the other in my hair. I stood and stared at her for a moment before I
picked her up and retreated to the nearest chair in the room. As I sat, I
pulled her close and leaned in to take in the scent of her hair as she snuggled
against me with a soft murmur. Closing my eyes, I did something I vowed I would
never do for this woman again.
A knot formed in my throat
and I thumbed angrily at the dampness in my eyes as I swore silently, squaring
my shoulders.
Don’t forget to visit all the
great authors from My Sexy Saturday weekly blog hop listed below. Have a great
weekend...see you next week!
