The idea here is to post seven sexy sentences from your work. This week, I've chosen a few from Hermes Online, my CataRomance Sensual Reads Reviewer's Choice Winner for Contemporary Romance. This is an unusual story of transformation told in one perspective only. (psst...the Greek gods are implied)
Setting the Stage
Vivienne and the man known only as S are sharing emails that are growing progressively more intimate as time goes by. After the battering her self esteem suffered, each email is a handhold out of her dark thoughts.
We were cerebrally intimate yet knew nothing whatsoever about each other. But I wanted him, god yes, I did. His words implied he was well endowed, and I didn’t care. I didn’t care if he was ancient or younger or possessed an athlete’s body or weighed four hundred fifty pounds. I didn’t care. In my mind he had green eyes the color of a still and shady pond and a short devil-may-care beard and hair the color of ripe chestnuts. Had I more details he couldn’t have been more desirable in that moment. I read his last email again.
Here's the story
"I liked this story. It's a throwback to the old style romanticism" "The plot twist definitely appeals to the romantic in me." "It's a thoroughly sensual read and a feel-good story." -Happily Ever After Reviews

i like this excerpt but i wonder about a guy who implies he's well endowed. that sets off warning signals. is he compensating???
ReplyDeleteTrying this again with coffee to see how many typos I can avoid. Here's what I said:
Deletelol That would be MY first thought Nora! No, in describing himself, he simply said his hands were large. She drew her conclusion from that. Thanks for stopping by. :)
