Thanks so much for stopping by. Today’s eight sentences are part of the Weekend Writing Warriors meme — just click that link for a complete list of participants.
This week’s snippet if from my upcoming release, BODY OF WORK, available May 1st!
Think the gym is strictly for exercising? Think again. 😉 Click here for last week’s snippet.
She grabbed the sanitizer and turned, shrieking when she face-planted into a wide expanse of chest. “Geez, you need bells on your shoes or something.” She looked up, then up some more until she got to his face. A tidy, super-short ginger beard and mustache framed sensual pink lips. Did the man ever not look delicious? Much more of this innocent contact and she might not make it out of the building before giving in to her body’s aching demands. A quickie in the ladies’ locker room—solo edition.
Blurb:
Cassie has fantasized about the ginger-haired personal trainer for months. Brian is friendly, but never more—until he appears on her doorstep and shows her how much her flirting has affected him. The more she’s with him, the more Cassie wants the fairytale, not just hot sex with the six-two hunk. She can give Brian full access to her body, but after her ex’s reaction to her explicit photography business, sharing her secrets, and her heart, isn’t an option.
Brian knows better than to break the rules. Don’t date gym members. Keep his inner beast on a leash during sex. Cassie tested his resolve on number one her first day in the gym. Shattered the second rule when he touched her. The petite pixie shares his preferences in the bedroom. She makes him laugh and love—but past mistakes haunt him, emotionally and tangibly. Cassie’s worth the price he’ll pay for breaking the rules. Now he must convince her to give him her heart.

Love this. Looking forward to reading the entire book and see what happens when he lets his “inner beast” off the leash.
Joanne Stewart

Up and up, lol, at 5′ 2″ I know that feeling 🙂 Love how she’s described him. I’m hoping she gives in and that it’s anything but solo. Fab snippet.

Brian must be very tall or Cassie very short. Either way, the sexual tension is palpable. Great excerpt!
Linda Morris
Sigh. There’s something about bearded heroes. Good luck with the release!
A.S. Fenichel
Ha! She’s got it bad. Can’t wait for more.
J. Rose Allister
Hmmm…or WILL it be solo? He’s done quite a number on her if she can’t even make it out the door without “handling business!” Great snippet. 🙂

“You need bells on your shoes” Ha! With that and the solo job comment, you’ve done a great job establishing her voice 😉

“Innocent” contact on his part. Right…. 😀
