It's My Sexy Saturday! Participating authors post 7 paragraphs, 7 sentences, or 7 words. The theme this week is You're So
Sexy. This time it's 7 paragraphs from my first novel Hermes Online ~ a scorching tale told in one perspective only, the reader sees a
brokenhearted woman's metamorphosis in real time. Words can heal.
This couple is unique in that they interact through their computers. Who could be sexier than the enigmatic S ?
Vivienne certainly thinks so.
Setting the Stage: After weeks of suggestive email exchanges, my pair realize they want more than words.
My 7:
Soul-stealing, wonderful V,
You ask if I want you? How can you ask? You fill my every waking thought.
S
I smiled. The words I chose next were a worm on a hook if I ever saw one.
S,
Every waking thought? Tell me, what true thoughts are they? Sex with me in real life?
V
Utterly desirable V,
True thoughts, eh? Then yes, I must admit that I want to fuck you blind! But more than that, I want to make love to you until the lines between us blur and you take my soul completely.
S
Oh my god...I swallowed hard. The last time a man had said those words to me they made my heart sing. “I want to make love to you too,” I whispered to the enigmatic stranger.
We were cerebrally intimate yet knew nothing whatsoever about each other. But I wanted him, god yes, I did. He implied he was well endowed, and I didn’t care. I didn’t care if he was ancient or young 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. He had 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.
Just as I was about to reply, my doorbell rang.

It's My Sexy Saturday! Participating authors post 7 paragraphs, 7 sentences, or 7 words. The theme this week is loving at any age. Perfect for a 120-year-old ghost! I give you 7 sentences from Dreamscape.
It's a haunting, a
murder, a thriller, a mystery, a time-travel of sorts, and a love story that transcends time.
Above all, this sensual tale is a reader's Easter egg hunt in the truest
sense. Not everything is as it appears. Peppered throughout are little
clues suggesting a story running behind the scenes.
Setting the Stage:
Lanie now knows about her ghost. Dr. Jason Bowen is the man she's been dreaming about for years. Still, he takes a little getting used to.
My 7:
“I sense I make you nervous. I’d never hurt you, you know. Please believe that.”
“I believe you Jason, I -- I’m not dressed.”
“And
I am a mere shadow of a man. Please don’t be shy in front of me, Lanie,
I’m a ghost. Some would say I’m not even here,” he teased.

"Dreamscape is a beautifully told tale, blending the lives of two complex
characters and two distinct time periods. I would best describe it as a
very sensual romantic suspense." "I enjoyed it very much and highly recommend it."

It's My Sexy Saturday! Participating authors post 7 paragraphs, 7 sentences, or 7 words. For me, this time it's another 7 sentences from my backlist ~ Hermes Online
A scorching tale told in one perspective only, the reader sees a
brokenhearted woman's metamorphosis in real time. Words can heal.
This couple is unique in that they interact through their computers. Today's My Sexy Saturday's theme is what happens after the love story. Vivienne and S don't realize their online relationship is their second love story.
Setting the Stage~
Vivienne receives a very compelling email from the man she only knows as S.
My Seven~
Allow me to pay homage to the goddess you are. Let me begin at your little feet. Feel me lightly kiss, and yes, you will feel me bite ever so slightly, for the need to devour you is great. Reply lover,
I await.
S
Petal-strewn sheets. I swallowed. Good god, you're a sexy man.

Blurb~
Imagine if you will a story begun in the halls of Mount Olympus long
before this modern tale was conceived. It was a time when the god Hermes
flew on his winged sandals and carried messages from the gods to the
mortals below. And between that time and this, couriers became postmen
and handwritten letters became bytes. It is said the gods still speak to
those who listen…
Left bruised and brokenhearted after a cruel breakup,
Vivienne Bennet finds herself mired in a world of self-doubt. To her
surprise, she receives an email that challenges her to rediscover the
sensual woman she once was. Together Vivienne and the enigmatic man
known only as S embark upon the world of anonymous Internet
communication where suggestive emails lead to erotic chat, where
cybering leads to Skype, and C2C sends both into the arms of a love
they'd believed lost forever.
