Sunday Snippet – 05/12/2013 – Body of Work
♥ Happy Mother’s Day ♥
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and read this week’s snippet from my new release, BODY OF WORK. Today’s eight-sentence excerpt is part of the Weekend Writing Warriors meme — click over for the full list of participants.
In this scene, Brian and Cassie are in her bedroom, ‘together’ together for the first time. They’ve agreed to swap evidence of their mutual attraction, which, to this point, neither had acted on. It’s Cassie’s turn to ′fess up.

“I took your picture at the gym — with my phone — more than one picture, actually.”
A massive grin spread across his face. “You really are sneaky. What did you do with the pictures?”
Oh, the usual, propped the phone against her pillow and looked at them while masturbating. “Nothing.” She sounded like a woman who’d crossed the desert without a drop to drink.
“I’d like to see that.”

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.

Sounds like he knows just what kind of “nothing” she’s talking about. Great snippet, Karla. And Happy Mother’s Day, even if late. 🙂
