WeWriWa: Miss George’s Second Chance Pt1

Happy November! Thanks for visiting my humble abode. Hope you’ve had an excellent week. Today I’m featuring the first lines from an upcoming release — Miss Watson’s Second Chance. Surprise. Surprise. It’s a regency romance – novella. Miss Watson will release November 13.

Difficult situations required desperate measures. Imogen George–writer, spinster and pragmatist–steeled her heart to be as brutal as any heroine before her had ever been. “Have you sulked enough Mr. Watson?”

The man sitting on the dark Brighton shoreline surged to his feet and then faced her. “Hell’s bells, what are you doing here?”

Imogen clenched her hands together to hide their trembling. Standing on the dark beach, waves crashing around them, made her meeting with her best friend’s brother potentially romantic though she doubted it would be. “I have a proposition for you, Mr. Watson.”

I love and appreciate your comments. Thanks for reading.

WeWriWa: Hunting the Hero Pt10

Hey there. Happy Sunday and thanks for dropping by. This will be the last post from Hunting the Hero for a while. Following on from last week, creatively edited to keep within the 8 sentences. Enjoy.

Meredith’s pulse quickened. Grayling was handsome and had an air of command. A fallen angel sent to lure any good woman to ruin. Not that Meredith’s ruin was possible or even probable now. She’d fallen as far as she could already without being forced to beg. Yet when she looked Grayling over from head to toe, the idea of begging this man for anything involving pleasure held an appeal she could not dismiss easily. Men of his caliber rarely came her way.

However, for the first time in quite a long time, Meredith couldn’t help feeling just a little overcome by a man’s scrutiny.

Hunting the Hero OUT NOW

Meredith wants no part of her long-ago identity as Rosemary Randall. She’s created a more exciting life as a courtesan. She’ll never let herself be tied down to the Earl of Grayling, but something deep inside her yearns to stay. Should she trust the man she’s coming to love with the secrets of her past, or flee to save them both from heartbreak?

 

WeWriWa: Hunting the Hero Pt9

Weekends come around just too quick of late. Can you believe its just 73 days until the New Year (I’m trying not to think of the other big holiday for Aus). I’m posting another snippet from Hunting the Hero. I’ve moved on to chapter two and we’re in my heroine’s point of view. Hope your weekend’s rockin!

SINFULLY BEAUTIFUL MEN were Meredith Clark’s weakness, especially ones who didn’t notice the spell they cast over their captive audience. Known only as Calista in the secluded country brothel, Meredith Clark breathed deep, scenting the clean skin and earthy fragrance of Lord Grayling as he filled her starved senses. Her job might be to please those who came into her arms and bed, but gaining a little pleasure for herself in return was always an unlooked-for treat.

“I believe I shall leave you in Calista’s capable hands, my lord. Do be sure to ring if you require the slightest embellishment to your night,” Linnie murmured, casting Meredith a look that warned she’d better not leave him wanting for anything. The madam departed soundlessly. Grayling barely acknowledged Linnie’s departure. He remained apart and returned Meredith’s frank stare.

WeWriWa: Hunting the Hero Pt8

Greetings. Disastrous week on the writing front here. Computer problems and program updates are driving me crazy but thankfully WeWriWa posts everything better. 🙂 I’m again sharing more from Hunting the Hero. I’ve skipped ahead a teensy bit from last week. In the last excerpt shared, Constantine wanted an introduction. Calista strutted forward and…

The bold move placed her between him and the bawd as if the larger woman might need her protection. “This was a private conversation, my lord.”

“About me.”

Calista shrugged as if the matter were of no importance. “Wagers are placed in any number of places and at any time about many things. Do you take offence to each and every one?”

“I never said I was offended. I just doubt your ability to do as you claim.”

I love and appreciate your comments. Thanks for reading.

WeWriWa: Hunting the Hero Pt7

Greetings. I hope you’re having a great weekend. Its a long weekend for me and just a few more days till school resumes. If you’re a parent you’ll know exactly why I’m so happy today — peace soon. Yippee!! I’m sharing more from Hunting the Hero – creatively edited a bit. Last week Calista claimed to know what men wanted and my hero Constantine was listening to every word.

wewriwa

The challenge was boldly made. All men wanted the same thing from a woman, didn’t they? No demands but on their body, no conversation save for what they expected in bed. There was no doubt her experiences had made Calista overconfident, too. But his curiosity was roused and he was determined to find out more about her.

Constantine moved until he stood openly in the doorway, nudging the opening wider so he could view the entire room. Before him, Mrs. Cohen towered over the woman called Calista who didn’t reach higher than his chest. Constantine was drawn to the stubborn, smug glint in Calista’s eyes –they sparkled with the thrill of her dare.

I love and appreciate your comments. Thanks for reading.

WeWriWa: Hunting the Hero Pt6

Hey, welcome back for WeWriWa. I hope you’ve had a great week and have managed to get some serious fun into your days. It’s the school holidays here and my youngest son keeps abducting me to hang out with him. He’s 11 so I’m making the most of being wanted. I know it doesn’t last forever. LOL I’m continuing with excerpts from Hunting the Hero again this week, moving ahead just a touch in the chapter.

 “What would I do without you?” Mrs. Cohen murmured, genuine affection softening her voice. “These are powerful men and must be looked after as if they were made of glass.”

“Not glass, Linnie. Something much, much warmer.” Calista’s gaze shifted to the doorway where he hid. Her lips lifted into a cunning smile as if she knew he was there, listening while they planned his seduction. “I’ve been at this for a long time now and I know what men want — trust me.”

I love and appreciate your comments. Thanks for reading.
