Excerpt:
"It's
because you go for the wrong type of guy," Brett said matter-of-factly,
pouring a third shot down his throat. "Those muscle bound jocks are all
bark and no bite. They look good on the outside, but they're a mess on the
inside."
Amy threw a piece of ice at him and
laughed. "And the goody two shoes, school teacher types you date are much
better?"
"Nope." He grinned.
"Which is why we're both still single."
She sighed. "Yeah, so much for
my dream of having kids."
"You're young. I'm sure you'll
find someone." He drank his last shot and chased it with his beer.
"I'm thirty, Brett. By the time
I find a man, date him, and get married, I'll be an old hag with no viable
eggs."
The thought of Amy finding a man to
marry and have kids with didn't sit well with him. He couldn't stomach the
thought of losing her. "I'll tell you what." He leaned across the
table and pointed at her. "Three years from now, if neither of us are
married, I'll marry you and give you as many babies as you want." Brett's
words were slurred. Yup. He was definitely drunk. He wouldn't have made that
proposition otherwise.
"Yeah right." Amy rolled
her eyes. "You and me? That would be like fucking my brother. Thanks, but
no thanks."
He flinched at her words. "You
think of me as your brother?" That bothered him a lot more than it should,
especially considering he'd never once thought of her as a sister.
She shrugged. "We're best
friends. How else would I think of you?" Amy glanced away, and then set
her gaze on him again. "Why? How do you think of me?"
Oh shit! He hadn't expected the
conversation to backfire on him like that. What was he supposed to tell her?
That he thought of her as a best friend that he wanted to fuck? No, he
definitely couldn't tell her that. "As a friend, I guess. I don't know.
It's not like I sit around and think about how I should think of you. You're
Amy."
"And you're drunk."
"Maybe a little." He
grinned. "So, do we have a deal or what?"

Excerpt:
She'd just placed another call through to Pemsky's office, which went
straight to his voicemail, when the office door opened. Halo smiled and looked
up into dreamy, gold-flecked green eyes, short sandy brown hair, a slight cleft
chin, and full lips set in a hard line. Even with the stern look he had on his
face, my hormones jumped into overdrive.
Mr. Dreamy cleared his throat—she must've been staring. In her most professional
voice she said, "Good morning. How may I help you?"
He removed a piece of paper from his shirt pocket and unfolded the sheet.
"I was parked in front of the Beacon Hill Ale House and my driver's
side mirror was sideswiped by one of Pemsky's Security's SUV's Friday
night."
Halo loved the Beacon Hill Ale House. Every Saturday night the Ale House
allowed local bands to jam together. That's where she'd met her last loser
boyfriend. She'd had a lot of loser boyfriends. She's currently on a hiatus from
dating, but she wouldn't mind jumping back into the dating game for this
dream-boat.
He handed her the piece of paper.
"I wasn't able to get a look at the driver, but I got the license
plate number of the vehicle that hit my car and drove away."
He emphasized the last part.
"I'm very sorry about your car. I'm sure Mr. Pemsky will be happy to
cover the damage." Halo checked the company log and Pemsky's name popped
up as the driver—she gulped.

DeleteSteam or Sweet?
ReplyDeleteDepends upon my mood. Most of the time I'm looking for steamy, but I really do love the sweet ones too.

Anywhere in the world...probably New Zealand. I'm obsessed with that country. It's beautiful. Also, fave movies were filmed there...Take a guess lol yes, LOTR. But it really is gorgeous, and I wouldn't mind walking in all that green grass...
