Happy reading!!!

Out of His League Part 6

Kip pulled his car into his parking space and turned off theengine. Sweat started too trickled down the side of Lance’s face. The driveback to Kip’s place just didn’t seem long enough. Now he was faced with whatwould happen next. He knew what he wanted to happened but feared that Kip mighthave changed his mind.

“So, here we are.” Kip tapped his fingers against thesteering wheel.

“Yep.” That was all Lance could think to say. He was nervousand afraid to make the first move. He nodded his head in time with Kip’stapping fingers.

Kip turned in his seat. “I can see that you’re nervous.” Heplaced a hand on Lance’s thigh. “I propose we go up to my apartment and eatthis pizza. It smells amazing.” Kip dipped his head then looked up at himthrough his thick eyelashes. “Will you please come upstairs with me, Lance? Ihate eating alone,” he said with a pout to his lips.

Lance couldn’t help but laugh. Kip looked so innocent,almost childlike, asking him to come up to his apartment. How could he refuse?

“If I had a nickel for every time I heard that one.” Lancechuckled “Yes, I would love to come eat dinner with you.”

As they got out of the car, Kip grabbed the pizza box fromthe back seat. Lance followed behind him up the stairs admiring the way Kip’sass moved under his shorts. The tight globes had a slight jiggle as he moved.Kip had a bounce to his step when he walked. Lance smiled to himself because hetoo had a little pep to his own. Even if he and Kip didn’t get physical it wasstill an awesome feeling to spend time with the man.

When they reached Kip’s apartment, he tried to balance thebox and unlock the door at the same time. Lance stepped forward and grabbed thepizza from Kip’s hand.

“Here, let me hold that.”

Kip smiled at him then leaned forward to brush his lipsacross his. “Thanks.”

A slight grin spread across his lips. Kip was so affectionatewith him and it warmed him from the inside out. He had to be glowing withhappiness. He never dated a guy that had no qualms about kissing and holdinghands for all to see. Kip was out and proud and Lance couldn’t have beenluckier. He just hoped his shyness didn’t mess the whole thing up.

Kip pushed opened the door and waved a hand in front of himletting Lance go first. As he stepped over the threshold, he jumped when a handsmacked him hard on the right butt cheek. He turned to look at a laughing Kip.

“Hey!”

“Sorry.” Kip continued to laugh. “I just wanted to shock youinto loosening up.” Kip shrugged. “And I’ve been dying to give that fine ass agood squeeze.”

Heat seared his cheeks as he turned away from Kip. “Where doyou want to eat this pie at?”

“Let’s sit on the couch and eat.” Kip grabbed the remote andflipped on the TV. “I want to watch the ESPN highlights from tonight’s games.”Kip headed toward the kitchen. “Water okay with you?” he shouted over hisshoulder.

“Sounds good.” Lance took a seat on the couch. He placed thebox on the coffee table and waited for Kip to come back. He didn’t want to berude and start eating without him.

“Here you go.” Kip handed him a bottle of water then steppedover his lap. Which put his groin right at Lance’s eye level.

An unintentional move on Kip’s part but still caused histhroat to go dry. Even when Kip wasn’t trying to he still wound him up. Hisdick twitched in his shorts and he dropped his hand to adjust the growingerection.

As they at dinner they talked over the game that was on the TVthat had gone into overtime. It was in the twelfth inning. The home team’s leftfielder came up to bat and hit a line drive right out of the park, scoring histeam the winning run.

Lance looked over to Kip when he turned off the TV. He watchedhim stand up and he met Kip’s eyes as he stared down at him.

“I’m going to go hop in the shower.” He removed his shirtand let it dropped to the floor. Lanced gulped down the drool pooling in hismouth at the breathtaking sight. “If you want, you’re more than welcomed tojoin me.”

Lance watched as Kip walked down the hallway. He heard thewater come on. From where he sat he could see Kip in the reflection of thebathroom mirror. Kip bent over then stood back up. Lance sat up straighter tosee what Kip was doing. His mouth fell open when he saw the top curve of Kip’sass in the mirror.

“Dear God,” Lance mumbled to himself.

He flopped back on the couch. This was it. He could go homeand call it a night or he could work up his courage and go join Kip in theshower.

Pushing to his feet, Lance made his decision. He kicked offhis shoes, then pulled off his shirt, and last he pushed down his shorts. Hewalked into the brightly lit bathroom. The shower curtain was clear so he couldsee every part of Kip’s naked body perfectly. He had a golden tan everywhereexcept on his ass. It was bright whitehaving been shielded from the strong rays of the sun.

Hesitantly Lance pulled back the curtain. Kip turned tosmile at him.

“Took you long enough.”

Set Me On Fire Cover

2012-02-21T09:44:00.000-06:00

I got an email last night with the cover for my firefighter story I submitted to Silver Publishing for the Men in Uniform Anthology. Beautiful cover and to top it off it has my name on it. LOL!

I'm not sure what other authors will have stories within this particular anthology but I'm sure it'll be amazing.

I've written a story between two firemen, Kelly and Nate, and the struggles they have in their new relationship due to their occupations. It's a short story under twenty thousand words, so a quick read.

I'm going to post the unedited blurb for the book, it may change once it goes through edits. I hope everyone enjoys Kelly and Nate's story. I had a lot of fun writing about them. Honestly who doesn't love a man in uniform? And for me, firefighters rank at the top of that list.

Blurb

Kelly Lynch thought getting through his probation period tobecome a firefighter was going to be hard, but in the end it’s his attraction tohis boss that could cause him to get burned in more ways than one.

Kelly Lynch wanted to become a firefighter to help peopleand give his life meaning. But his accident prone nature has his boss thinkinghe’s an utter fool. He never planned to fall for Nate Anderson but now that hehas, he’s realizing loving is easy, its understanding and comprise that is thehard part.

Nate has been attracted to Kelly since his first day at thestation house and watching the younger man day in day out is frustrating to saythe least. Kelly’s latest stunt almost got him killed and for fear of losingKelly, Nate decides to discourage the man of his dreams from his own dream.

Will Nate’s demanding ways push Kelly away causing theflames of their love to smolder and die? Or can Kelly prove he has what ittakes to become a firefighter Nate can be proud of in and out of the bedroom?

Set Me On Fire is scheduled to released April 21 through Silver Publishing, this date may change. I'll keep my blog posted for updates.

Marie thought dyingwas the worst thing to happen to her, until informed she's always been a man'ssoul trapped in a woman's body. As Marc, he's got one shot to set thingsright--by finding love with his best friend and soul mate--with only a month todo it.

Marie Carter has never felt comfortable in her own body, andit took dying to find out why. Ross, her unlikely guardian angel, informs herthat mistakes were made and he needs her help to save her fate, Ross's wings,and her best friend's heart.

Six month's after Marie's death, Marc arrives with one monthto heal Sabrina's—his sister's—suffering, and win his soulmate, Shawn. If hefails, Sabrina will never know peace, Ross will be kicked out of heaven, andthe love of his life will die from a broken heart. Will that be enough time toheal the wounds a lifetime in the wrong body has caused?

Excerpt

Lost in my own thoughts, I almost didn't feel the

light touch on my arm. I turned to look into Shawn's

concerned face.

"Are you okay, Marc? If you're not sure about this,

we don't have to do anything you don't want to."

I took a step closer to Shawn. I was standing on the

top step and him on the bottom one, so our eyes were level

with one another. I put the palm of my hand against his

cheek. I felt a day's worth of stubble and chills ran down

my spine at the contact with the spiky facial hair.

"Oh no, I want to. I was just thinking about how

sudden this is. I don't want to be just another notch onyour

bed post." This was true. I wanted more than just onenight

with Shawn. Ross said we were destined to be together but

what if Shawn didn't feel the full weight of that inner pull

to each other?

Shawn took a step up to where he towered over me.

"First off, nothing is ever a guarantee in life.Second, after

spending the past few hours talking to you, I would hope at

least you would want to go out on a date with me."

"Really?" I whispered.

"Really." He bent down and kissed the tip of my

nose. "But if you want to go slow, we can. Good things

come to those who wait."

Shawn walked the rest of the way up the steps. He

ushered me inside and shut the door behind him. I turned to

face him and in the moonlit foyer, Shawn had never looked

sexier. His golden hair glowed in the dim light and the hard

edges of his face stood out making him look like a Greek

god.

"Why wait?"

I shoved Shawn against the door and pulled his face

down to mine. When our lips touched, a deep sigh passed

my parted lips. Shawn wrapped his arms around my waist

and held me against his chest.

As his hands roamed, I let my tongue explore the

inner depths of his mouth. With a little poking and

prodding, he opened wide to let me in. I slid my tongue

over his and coaxed it to play with mine. He tasted of beer

and a distinctive flavor that was all his own.

The wet slurping sounds of our kissing caused my

cock to ache painfully. I was hard as stone and these tight

jeans sure as hell weren't helping the cause. The need to

come had me grinding my groin against Shawn's muscular

thigh.

I want you inside me.

"Are you sure?" Shawn asked between kisses.

My head jerked back as I realized I'd said the words

aloud for all to hear. I held Shawn's gaze. "I'm sureif you're

sure."

A small grin was my only warning before Shawn

used his hands to pull up on my ass cheeks. I quickly

wrapped my legs around his hips as he carried me down the

hallway to his room.

In The Dark

AJ Jarrett

"Excuse me," Caleb said in a rush as hesidestepped

party goers and rushed down the hallway. He glanced over his

shoulder to confirm that his ex, Wes, just strode into theparty

with a hot piece of arm candy next to him.

Caleb didn't care that Wes had met someone else and

was moving on with his life, no, what he did care about was

being caught flying solo in front of his ex and his newflavor of

the month. He shouldn't care, but he had some pride to keep.The

split was amicable, but he still didn't want to come off asthe

lonely loser of the two. To be pitied would be an insult.

He and Wes met the beginning of their sophomore year

in college when Wes came looking for a tutor so he wouldn'tget

kicked off the football team. If he didn't get a passinggrade in

his English Lit class, he would be benched and ultimately lose

his scholarship. Being the nice guy that he was, Calebagreed to

help him. He had a weakness for hot guys in need.

They started out as friends, than gradually became more.

The late night study sessions became getting breakfasttogether

after a long night of making love. That went on for ablissful

nine months, then they parted ways. It wasn't for lack offeelings,

just they grew up, and with that, apart.

It was so cliché their relationship, the hot jock with the

nerdy intellectual. They were batting in completely different

leagues, but they both held on to the hope they would work

through their differences. No such luck.

Caleb glanced over his shoulder and a disappointed sigh

passed his lips. He did miss the man. Wes sure knew how to…

"Oh shit!"

As if he could hear Caleb's thoughts, Wes looked up andcaught

his eye. He so wasn't going to look like the needy desperateex.

Reaching The End of the hallway, he cursed when it didn'tlead

to a back door, taking away his escape route. He could hear

someone calling out his name, but he didn't acknowledge it,he

needed to hide. Caleb turned in a circle, debating his options.

Going to the first door, he turned the knob and ran into theroom,

shutting the door behind him. It was dark, but he didn'twant to

turn the light on and give away his location.

A light knock on the door had him stumbling across the

room and opening the closet door and stepping inside.Pathetic,

but he couldn't go back in time to erase the last twominutes, so

that left the only option of hiding like a chicken.

The closet door front had horizontal wood slates so he

could see a little bit, but with the darkness he couldn'tmake out

much. He held his breath as a man came into the room. The

man's face was veiled by the blackness in the room, and he

couldn't tell if was Wes or not.

The stranger stepped farther into the room and shut the

door behind him. As if he had a homing device to findchicken

shit losers, he walked straight to the closet door. Calebcovered

his eyes as the man opened the door.

"Hey," the man said in greeting. "Why are youin the closet?"

Caleb started to bring his hands down from his face to

confess his foolishness to a complete stranger, when thesound of

the door knob turning had him acting before he could thinkabout

it.

He grabbed the man by the shirt front and yanked him

into the closet with him. Caleb wrapped his hand around the

guy's mouth when he parted his lips to speak. The overheadlight

flicked on, and Wes stood in the doorway. He looked fromside

to side, oblivious to the only other door in the room, andturned

to leave. But not before his new hottie boyfriend came upbehind

him.

"Babe, what are you doing?" the sexy boyfriendasked.

"Oh, nothing." Wes wrapped his arms round theguy's

waist and kissed him on the lips. "I thought I sawsomeone I

knew come in here." He shrugged. "Oh well, I guessI was

wrong. Let's go get a drink."

Caleb stood still as he watched Wes turn down the

switch, leaving the room in total darkness again. Hereleased the

breath he had been holding and let his hand fall away fromthe

stranger's face. Now he just had to wait for a little bituntil the

coast was clear. If he left now and got caught coming out ofthe

bedroom Wes just checked, he didn't think he could make up a

believable lie quick enough. As it was, he wasn't sure why he

even ran. It's not a crime to be single.

"So, what was that about?"

Caleb jumped in surprise when the stranger spoke. He

turned to get a better look at the guy, but between thetight

quarters and hanging clothes, he couldn't make out much. Buthe

did feel like he owed the guy an explanation for holding him

hostage in the closet.

"That," Caleb pointed toward the door, "wasmy ex and

I'm guessing his new boyfriend." He ran his hand acrosshis

forehead, wiping away the sweat that started to bead up."Shit,

did you see that guy? He looked like a fucking ChanningTatum

clone."

As the man beside him began to laugh, Caleb shoved the

hanging shirts to the side. The man made snorting sounds ashe

tried to contain his merriment. "What is sofunny?" he snapped.

"Oh nothing," the man said in a high pitch squeak.After

a few deep breaths, he sobered up. "I just never heardanyone

describe us like that before; thanks."

"Huh?" Caleb reached up and pulled down on thestring

hanging from the ceiling. Light flooded the small area andhe

gasped in shock. A carbon copy of the guy feeling up his ex

stood right in front of him. What the hell? "You'refucking

Channing Tatum's clone's double." Caleb pulled the cordagain

to shut the light off and sank back against the wall,grunting in

pain when he bumped his head on the closet's top shelf. The

likeness between the two could only mean one thing.

"Once again, thanks." The clone double held outhis

hand. "Hi, I'm Liam and that was my brother Luke. We'retwins."

"I kind of figured that out." He shook Liam'shand. "I'm

Caleb." His pulse sped up as he realized his little runand hide act

had just been witnessed by the brother of the guy sleepingwith

Wes. Just perfect. Sinking to the floor, he crossed hislegs; the

tight confines of the closet didn't allow enough space forhim to

stretch out.

He heard some shuffling, then Liam sat next to him.

Liam was quite a bit bigger than him and had to fold hislarge

frame into a pretzel just to take a seat.

"So I have to ask—why are we hiding in a closet? Still

got feelings for Wes?"

Caleb turned his head to so fast he bumped Liam in the

nose. Liam let out a groan.

"Sorry." Caleb reached his hand out to run hisfingertips

along Liam's nose. The skin was so smooth and soft; he lethis

hand drop to cup the side of Liam's face. "Are youokay?"

Heat radiated off of Liam like a space heater. The faint

scent of his cologne met Caleb's nose and he took a deepbreath.

If only he met this gorgeous man under differentcircumstances.

When Liam didn't respond, he jerked his hand back, not

knowing if his touch was welcomed. Just because he and his

brother were twins didn't mean they both batted for the same

team.

"Yeah, I'm fine." Liam rubbed his nose. "Thiscloset ain't

big enough for the both of us."

"Well, you don't have to stay," Caleb shot back.He

hated the situation he was in. Running from an ex he didn'thave

feelings for anymore and being stuck in a closet with a sexyas

sin man, who just happened to be said ex's new lover'sbrother.

"Don't change the subject. You didn't answer my question."

Caleb had no clue why Liam wanted to know what his

feelings for Wes were. He could only assume he was making

sure that he wouldn't be a problem to Wes and Luke's budding

relationship.

"Do I still have feeling for Wes? No. I just,"Caleb

paused, unsure how to explain his actions. "I justhaven't had a

chance to do much dating since we broke up, and of coursethe

first party I choose to go to, I run into him." He lethis head fall

back on his shoulders. "Then, to top it off, he has ahot new

boyfriend." Caleb turned toward Liam. "So I ran inhere instead

of looking like a loser. Pretty pathetic huh?"

"It's not pathetic, but neither is being at partyalone.

Don't most people go to parties to meet people?"

"Yeah, I guess. I didn't look at it like that."Caleb sighed.

"Does this make me an even bigger loser?" he askedLiam.

"No, it makes you human. I mean, we as people don't

like to deal with that awkward first encounter with an exand

their new partner. No one knows what to say, then you'rejust left

staring at each other like idiots." Liam shrugged."I get it."

"Thanks."

They sat there in the closet talking and getting to know

one another to pass the time. Liam was in no hurry to leave,and

Caleb enjoyed the company he offered. They talked aboutschool

and their majors. Came to find out they were both attending

school to become teachers.

Liam was also minoring in physical education so he

could have the opportunity to become a high school football

coach in the future. He said he enjoyed playing the sportbut

didn't see himself pursuing it further after he graduated.Being a

football star was more his brother's forte.

The more Liam talked, the more Caleb started to like

him. He wasn't just good looking, but smart to boot.Whenever

he was with Wes, Caleb always found himself having toexplain

everything he said but with Liam, he didn't have to. To beable to

have a conversation with another person that wasn't just one

sided was refreshing. With every passing minute, Liamknocked

down the stereotype that all jocks were morons, because hewas

far from it.

"Can I confess something to you?" Liam asked.

"Sure." He barked out a laugh. "Can't be asbad as what I

confessed to you. So spill it. I'm all ears." He nudgedhis

shoulder against Liam's and felt the man stiffen.

"I kind of knew who you were before we got stuck in

this closet together."

"What?" Caleb sat up on his knees and turned thelight

back on. His heart skidded to a stop as Liam looked up athim

with the greenest eyes he had ever seen. In the emeralddepths,

he could see a vulnerability that he hadn't heard in Liam'svoice.

"I found this picture of you in Wes's room when I was

looking for a pencil in his desk."

Caleb stared at him blankly, not sure where his picture

and a pencil went together.

"Since you no longer tutored him, Luke asked meto," he

explained. "When I asked who the guy in the picturewas, he said

his ex-boyfriend." Liam barked out a laugh. "Iactually stared at

the picture for so long I thought my eyes would cross."

He sat there and listened to Liam's confession. The

thought that Liam sought him out all from just one littlephoto

was actually really sweet. "So I take it you liked thepicture?"

"Yeah, I did." Liam looked at him andgrinned.

"That's quite a gamble, don't you think?" Calebasked.

"Pictures can be deceiving. I could have been a totaldouchebag."

Liam sat with his lips pursed as if thinking about what

Caleb just said. "That's very true, but I've seen youaround

campus and I know that to be false." Liam rested hishand on

Caleb's thigh and scooted a little closer. "See, Ibelieve in fate

and I feel like it led me to you."

"Are you fucking kidding me with that?" Hiseyebrows

shot up to his hairline as his skepticism rose. Caleb was aman of

facts, he didn't believe in what he couldn't see and to hearLiam

talk about fate had him questioning the guy's sanity.

"No, hear me out." Liam turned to his side andrested

one of his long legs over Caleb's lap. The warm pressure ofthe

heavy limb had his skin tingling under his clothes."When I saw

that picture, my heart skipped a beat. Your smile radiatedoff the

paper like a spot light. Your ruby colored lips," Liamlightly

rubbed his thumb over his lips and Caleb moaned at thegentle

touch. "Your tan skin with just a hint of sunburn onyour cheeks

spoke volumes. You had this carefree happiness aboutyourself

that flowed through that picture. I knew then I had to atleast

meet you to see if the real thing was as good as thepicture."

Caleb sat speechless. He had no words to compete with

what Liam had just said. No one had ever spoken such sweet

words to him before. He had to know if he in fact did liveup to

Liam's expectations so far.

"So what do you think of the actual man?" hewhispered

as he stared at Liam lips.

"I think the man is whole hell of a lot better than the

photograph." Liam closed the distance and brushed hislips

across Caleb's. He teased the seam of Caleb's mouth and justas

he opened for Liam's invasion, the man pulled back."Plus, I find

odd behavior like running and hiding in closets veryattractive in

a man."

Caleb smacked Liam's arm as he began to laugh. "You

ruined a perfectly good moment." Caleb started to giggle. He

pushed at Liam's chest, and Liam grabbed his wrist andpulled

him forward.

"I also like having a lover I can laugh with."

Liam shifted on the floor, stretching his legs out as far as

he could before they hit the wall of the closet. He lay backand

tugged on Caleb's hand to follow him down. They lay

awkwardly on their sides, pushing shoes and other clutterout of

the way to make room for them both to lie somewhat

comfortably in the small space.

Caleb nuzzled his nose against Liam's, then turned to

lightly rub his cheek against the other man's. Was ithorniness or

the innocent charm about Liam that made him want him so

much?

He ran his fingers through Liam's short brown hair and

lowered his head the fraction it took to press their lipstogether.

He wasted no time sliding his tongue into the velvety warmthof

his mouth. Their tongues twined together, each trying togain

control over the other.

Caleb took a deep breath and slowly let it out through

his nose. His unabashed desire had him reaching for Liam'sbelt

buckle, then undoing the fastening on his jeans. The crownof

Liam's cock peeked out at the top, begging for attention.Caleb

eased his hand into Liam's jeans, pushing past the waistbandand

letting his hand curl around the impressive erection.

As he gave a teasing squeeze to the length, Liam

grabbed his hand. "You don't have to do this,Caleb."

"I know I don't have to, but I," he dropped a kissto

Liam's swollen lips, "want," another kiss,"to."

What control Liam had snapped. He quickly reached

down, freeing Caleb's cock. With their pants both pulledhalf

way down their legs, they lay close, pushing their growing

erections against one another. Warm flesh against warm flesh

stirred the fire growing between them.

Liam wrapped his long warm fingers around both their

cocks and began to move his hand up and down. Caleb released

a breathless cry, thrusting his hips forward for more of the

sensual touch.

Very slowly, Liam rubbed his thumb against the head of

Caleb's cock, spreading pre cum over the sensitive tip. Hispace

picked up, and Caleb bit down on his lower lip to helpstrive off

his need to come. A tingling sensation curled around hisballs,

signaling his orgasm had neared.

Dropping his hand down over Liam's, he squeezed tight.

Sensing his need, Liam pumped his fist harder. As his orgasm

roared to the surface, Caleb threw his head back, thetendons of

his neck bulging as his eyes fluttered closed. His ballsdrew up

tight as white-hot sparks shot from his cock and wetnesscovered

Liam's hand.

Still super sensitive after his orgasm, his body shook as

Liam speed up his hand, on the cusp of his own release. Liam

took his lips in a bruising kiss as he came. Letting hishand slow

down to lazy caresses along their softening lengths, Liamnipped

and bit at his mouth. Caleb moaned and pushed further into

Liam, mixing their combined juices together.

They laid there in their afterglow, letting their pulses

returned to normal. Caleb rubbed his fingers along Liam'sscalp,

enjoying his soft little mumbles of pleasure.

All too soon, the knowledge that he and Liam laid on the

floor of someone else's closet came rushing back. His kissed

Liam one more time then reached up to grab one of thehanging

shirts. Liam looked at him questioningly, and he justshrugged

his shoulders.

"I'll throw it in the hamper on our way out. We can't

walk out there with jizz on ourselves." He chuckled ashe wiped

away the residue of their jerk off session.

"Oh, shit." Liam whispered. "Still a littlesensitive, be

careful with that hand."

They both broke down into peals of laughter that turned

into more kissing and fondling. Caleb didn't want the nightto

end. It started off shitty, but ended with a bang. A bang inthe

form of Liam.

Standing upright in the closet, they straightened their

clothes and stood in the dark, just staring at one another.Caleb

didn't know what to say. They both started to speak at thesame

time.

"You go first," Caleb suggested.

"Okay." Liam beamed a smile at him. "Let mestart off

by saying I don't typically do this." He waved hishands around,

indicating the whole closet episode. "But there's justsomething

about you. I would really like to see where this cango."

Caleb mentally gave himself a pat on the back. He liked

Liam, and the best part about being stuck in the closetwasn't the

sex they shared, but the conversation. The getting to knowhim

and realizing he did actually like the guy. He wouldn't lieto

himself and say it wouldn't be weird dating the brother ofthe guy

who was now sleeping with his ex.

"I would love to, but do you think your brother will be

okay with this? I don't want to come between you guys."He had

to put it out there for Liam to decide. Luke was his brotherand

family came first. He and Wes weren't on bad terms, but he

didn't want to create a problem for anyone else, even at hisown

expense.

"Why should it? He's fucking Wes, not you." Liam

wrapped his arms around his waist and kissed his forehead.

"Now, if he starts to put the moves on you, then wewill have a

problem."

Caleb laughed. "Not going to be an issue. I kind ofhave

a thing for this one twin in particular."

"Oh really." Liam ground his hips into Caleb's,pressing

his semi erect cock against his thigh.

"Yeah really." Caleb smiled against Liam's lips."He's

smart, sweet and oh my god, so hot."

They started to laugh and it turned into another toe

curling kiss. So distracted, they didn't realize the bedroomlight

had come on until the closet door swung open.

"I thought I saw you two come in here!" Wes stoodin

front of them with a huge smile on his face. "See, Luke,I told

you they would be a good match."

"Huh?" Caleb and Liam said in unison.

"After we caught you drooling over his photo for likethe

hundredth time," Luke pointed at him, "Wes and Italked about it

and decided it was our duty to introduce you two to eachother."

"You two genius's came up with that all from me staring

at a picture." Liam stood with his arms crossed."It didn't seem a

bit odd to set your brother up with your new boyfriend'sex?"

Caleb nodded his agreement. It was strange that they

would want him and Liam to meet, and possibly start dating.He

wouldn't begrudge whatever brought them together in thatdark

closet, he was just glad they did.

"What's with the attitude? I thought I was doing

something nice," Luke whined.

"I'm not complaining, I just got to hear the reasoning

behind this. No offence, but you two don't seem all thatinto

matchmaking."

"I was my idea," Wes confessed. "Aftergetting to know

you from all the tutoring sessions we had together, Irealized you

were a lot like Caleb. Smart and funny. You guys madelearning

fun for me. Talking to you was like talking to him."

"So you're okay with this?" Caleb took a stepforward

and rested his hand on Wes's forearm.

"Yeah, I am. At first, I thought it would be a littleweird

and old feelings might get in the way." A thoughtfulexpression

crossed his face. "But you and I were always betterfriends than

lovers, and friends do stuff like this for each other."

"I guess they do." Caleb smiled at Wes then turnedto

face Luke. "Are you good with this, too?"

"Totally." He wrapped his arm around Wes'sshoulders.

"If my brother is happy, then I'm happy. Also, youdon't strike

me as a relationship wrecker or the type to sleep around onthe

guy you're dating." Luke winked at him.

"No, I'm not." He chuckled. "I'm a one man kind of

guy."

"That's good to hear," Liam whispered into his earas he

wrapped his arms around Caleb's waist, pulling his backflush

against his chest. "Because you're all mine."

Caleb sunk back into the embrace and a happy sigh

passed his lips. He turned his head to capture Liam's lipsin a

quick kiss.

"Enough of that." Luke covered his eyes. "Iwanted you

to be happy, but fuck, I don't want to watch you two get iton.

Jeez."

"Oh Luke, stop complaining." Wes grabbed Luke'shand

and started to lead him toward the door. "Hey, do youguys want

to come hang out with us? They just popped anotherkeg."

Liam turned to look at him with an eyebrow raised in

question. Caleb nodded to the unspoken question. "No,we're

going to pass. It's getting late, so we're just going tocall it a

night."

"See, I told you they were just alike," Weswhispered to

Luke as they left the room.

Caleb turned in Liam's hold and twined his arms around

his neck. "Call it a night, huh?"

"Well, I was kind of hoping we could call it a night

together. You know, go back to your place and see what

happens."

Liam placed soft kisses along his jaw line and Caleb

tilted his to the side to give him more room to play. Howcould

he say no to such a tantalizing offer?

Out of His League Part 5

Kip could see the hesitation and uncertaintyin Lance’s eyes and didn’t want to push him too far too soon. Offering to gohang out with his friends seemed like the best alternative. Maybe if Lance wasin familiar surroundings, he would relax a tab bit more.

“I’ll drive,” Kip offered.

Lance looked at him than back to hisown car. “I can follow you, so if its late you don’t have to drive me backhere. ”

Kip sidled up close to Lance. “It’skind of why I want to drive, so that you have to come back here.”

Lance’s eyes rounded and his mouthdropped open. The man look so sweet an innocent. Oh the fun he would have dirtyingup the halo that hung around Lance’s head.

“Get in gorgeous,” Kip said as heopened the door for Lance.

The drive to the restaurant was filledwith small talk. Mostly Kip asking Lance questions. Lance wasn’t very forthcomingwith any personal information. Kip could tell he made Lance nervous but he couldn’tfigure out why? After what took place between them in the locker room shower hedidn’t feel like he was stepping over the line by saying they had become morethan just fellow teammates.

When they reached the pizza place, Kipparked his car and hesitated for just a moment. He wanted to ask Lance why hewas being to stand offish but didn’t want to create a scene especially if hewas reading the whole situation wrong.

Getting out of the car he walkedclosely behind Lance. He so desperately wanted to slide his hand into his butheld back. Kip wasn’t quite sure if Lance’s friends were exactly open to public displays of affections betweentwo men.

As they neared the table in the backhe noticed Aaron, the centerfield for the Gray Wolves. The other guys sitting withhim Kip didn’t recognize.

“Hey Aaron, how’s it going, man?” Kipreached across the table to shack the man’s hand. Aaron gave him a quizzical look but shook hishand.

“Kip, I wasn’t expecting you.” Aarongrinned over to where Lance had taken a seat at the booth. “Are you two on adate?”

Kip opened his mouth to respond butLance, a quick pull trigger, shouted no. He glared over at Lance who haddropped his head and fidgeted with a napkin in his lap.

Turning back to Aaron, he gave a hugesmile as he nudged Lance in the arm to scoot over. “Yes, actually we are. Ourfirst.”

Lance’s head jerked his direction asAaron chuckled.

“Well I’m glad to hear that. Hopefullythe first of many.” Aaron teased. “Kip this is my boyfriend, Clay.” Aaronproceeded to introduce him to all the guys sitting around the table. He wasn’t awareAaron was gay but it was good to know he and Lance weren’t the only ones on theteam.

As it turns out the other men attendedClausen State. These group of friends were the guys who new Lance the best.They had a good time ribbing him on who he never brought Kip around before now.Kip laughed along with the guys but by the bright crimson that covered Lance’scheeks, the man was embarrassed.

Once the waitress left with theirorder, the guys got up to go play games in the arcade in the back of the restaurant.When they were out of view he turned to see Lance staring at him.

“Why did you say this was a date?”Lance asked.

Kip sighed dramatically. “Because forme this is. What’s going on? Are you embarrassed to be seen with me?” Kipdidn’t think that was the case but he couldn’t get a read on what Lance wasfeeling. The man ran hot and cold.

“God no.” Lance shifted in his seat tostare at him. “I just don’t want to assume anything.” He shrugged. “I don’t wantto get my hopes up is all.”

“Just for your information I don’t make ahabit of jerking off my teammates.” He flashed a grin at Lance. “I like youLance. Can’t you see that?”

Kip reacted before Lance couldrespond. He picked up a bread stick and dipped it in the marinara sauce. Maybe hecould seduced a reaction out of Lance, pulling him out of his shell like he didin the showers earlier. Bringing the piece of bread to his lips, he licked at thetip. Then he circled his tongue around the blunt end, moaning as he did. Out ofthe corner of his eye he could see Lance watching.

Closing his eyes he pushed thefluffing stick of bread pass his lips, moving the length in and out ever soslowly. He sucked the sauce off the breadstick then pulled it from his mouth.Lance’s gaze on him felt like a hand around his dick causing his shaft tobecome painfully swollen.

As he turn to face Lance, the mangrabbed him by the chin and captured his mouth in hard kiss, pushing his tonguepass his lips without hesitation. Kip groaned into the kiss. He never expectedto see this forceful side of Lance, but he liked it.

Kip brought his hand up to entwine hisfingers through Lance’s soft blond hair. He scrapped his fingernail against hisscalp erupting a loud moan from Lance. The vibrations went straight to Kips dickmaking it twitch in the tight confines of his shorts. He had to have Lance insidehim now.

The sound of a throat clearing hadthem jumping apart. Standing before them was Aaron and his boyfriend Clay. Bothwore ear to ear grins. “Maybe you two should take your pizza to go.” Aaronsuggested.

“I think you’re right.” Lance replynever taking his eyes off Kip.

Raw need roared within Kip’s body. He couldn’thide his happiness as he stood from the table. Finally Lance was on board withtheir budding relationship.

Cover for Fate's Fortunate Mistake!!

2012-01-31T13:11:00.000-06:00

Here is the cover for my second release through Silver Publishing, also the second in the Twists of Fate series. Reese Dante out did herself with this cover. It is totally like what I had envisioned in my mind.

On a side note, I have no clue when this book will be released. I have yet to even do edits on it, but the cover was to awesome to not share.

Out of His League Part 4

Lance arrived at Kip’s apartment with five minutes tospare. He walked up the stairs and sat with his back against Kip’s door andwaited.

It was July in Missouri and the heat was unbearable.Perspiration drip down his back to land in the waist band of his cargo shorts. Beforelong his ass sweat would leave one hell of a wet mark on Kip’s doorstep if theman didn’t arrive soon.

Leaning his head back to rest on the door, Lancethought back to the shower he had taken with Kip earlier. He still couldn’t believehe let the star pitcher jack him off in the locker room showers where anyonecould have walked in on them. But even with the possibility of being discovered,he wouldn’t have changed a thing. To be able to curl his fingers around Kipsthick, solid length and stroked him until he came was a dream come true.

The wind blew and he closed his eyes and let hebreeze fan his hair out of his face. Goose bumps broke out across his arms asthe wind cooled the sweat matted hair on his forehead. Lance reached down andreadjusted his dick to lay more comfortable in his shorts. The more he thoughtabout a naked Kip the harder he got.

His cell phone vibrated dragging him out of histhoughts. He fished the phone out of his pants and hit the connect button.

“Yep?”

“Hey, Lance, where you at?” Aaron asked but didn’t waitfor a response. “Me and some of the guys are going to McNeil’s Pizza, you wantto come with?”

If he didn’t say yes Aaron would twenty question himto death until he cracked and he wasn’t for sure if Kip wanted anyone to knowabout him being gay or that they were together, kind of.

“I’m going to pass.” Lance racked his brain for a believableexcuse. “I got a killer headache and I’m heading to the pharmacy right now forsome aspirin.”

“That’s cool but if you start to feel better come ondown.”

Lance agreed and disconnected the line. He didn’t wantto lie to his best friend but he had to take whatever was going on between himand Kip slow. If he rushed things to fast Kip might call it quits before anythinggot started.

Distracted by his dismal thoughts of losing Kipbefore he ever had him, he didn’t notice that the man stood at the top of the stairsstaring at him. Lance cleared his throat and climbed to his feet.

“Shit, I didn’t even hear you coming.” Lance dustedoff the back of his shorts and pulled the wet material away from his skin.

“Who was that?” Kip nudged his chin in the directionof Lance’s pocket that held his phone.

“Oh nobody, just some friends going out for pizza wantingto know if I wanted to come.”

“Did you want to?” Kip asked with a raised eyebrow disappointmentclear in his tone.

“God no!” Lance shouted.

Kip started to laugh as he walked toward his frontdoor. As he passed Lance, Kip brushed his lips against his. A small gaspedseeped past his lips. Every time Kip touched him it was as if an electricalcurrent ran through his body jolting his nervous system threatening to make hima puddle of goo at Kip’s feet.

Lance stood behind Kip as he unlocked the frontdoor. Once opened Kip ushered him inside and Lance’s eyes darted around thesmall apartment. Typical single guy living for a college student. It was cleanbut there was clothes strung around the room as if the first thing Kip did whenhe got home was strip all his clothes off letting them lay where they fell.

He jumped in surprise when he felt Kip step upbehind him and wrap his arms around his waist. Kip rested his head on Lance’sshoulder rubbing his stubble check against the side of Lance’s face.

“Easy there big guy.” Kip kissed the tender skinbehind his ear in an attempt to calm him down but all it did was cause his dickto swell. “If I'd known you were coming, I'd have picked up.”

Lance turned his head to the side to look at Kip. Hislips curled up at the corners and Lance started to laugh.

“Well if you knew then you must be a mind reader.”Lance’s eye dropped to Kip’s mouth and his tongue snaked out to wet his lips. “Becausenever in a million years would I have thought you were interested in me.”

Kip omitted a sigh and his moist breath fannedacross Lance’s face. He breathed in deep wanting to commit Kip’s scent tomemory just in case their time together tonight was just a onetime thing.

“Why wouldn’t I want you? Your fucking gorgeous andkind,” Kip whispered the last part as he turned Lance in his arms and walkedhim backwards to the couch.

When the back of Lance’s knees hit the edge heplopped down on his ass and Kip followed him down and straddled his lap. He criedout as Kip grinded his erection against the hard cock in his shorts. He tensedup from the action. He was torn, he wanted to throw Kip to the ground and fuckhim like a wild animal, but he also wanted to take things slow. Lance wanted toget to know Kip on a more personal level before they threw sex into theequation.

Kip noticed his hesitation and leaned back and saton Lance’s thighs. He steady Lance for a moment before he spoke. “Hey, why don’tyou and I go out with your friends? Might be fun just to hang out with oneanother before, you know, we go any further.”

Lance couldn’t believe his ears. Kip had read hismind. Maybe the man of his dreams was looking for more than just one night too.

Out of His League Part 3

Kip couldn’t hide his disgust at seeing his once upon a time lover. He had no doubt that Peter had stood there and watched him and Lance, invading their special moment.

“Peter it’s not moving on, it’s called living my life.” Kip shrugged. “I’m a young single guy I’m allowed to hook up with whomever I choose.”

“Oh come on Kipper, don’t be like that. I know you miss me,” Peter said as he took a step closer to Kip.

“No I don’t, you asshole,” Kip snapped as he knocked Peter’s hands away. He hated that nickname. To hear Peter use it brought back to many bad memories.

He turned around, grabbed his back pack and headed for the double doors. Just the sight of seeing his lying cheating ex turned his stomach. To think he turned down a scholarship to a college with a division one baseball team to be with Coach Asshole.

“So you think that boy can make you feel the way I did?” Peter chuckled. “Baby, you’re going to miss my touch,” Peter said as he moved closer. “I know you miss the sex we shared. He’ll never make you come the way I did, never.”

Kip narrowed his eyes at Peter. The man thought way to much of his fucking abilities. He did enjoy the sex they shared. It was sex after all but after learning Peter was engaged to a woman, the sex stopped being fun. To be someone’s dirty little secret kind of sucked any fun out of it.

“You’re right; he won’t make me feel the things you did.” Kip smiled. “He’ll make me feel loads better because he won’t be ashamed of me and lie to me.” Kip was taking a gamble on that since he didn’t know if Lance was out or not but anything was better than being used.

Peter lunged forward and grabbed his arm as Kip started out of the locker room. Kip stumbled back. He wasn’t expecting Peter to touch him. As he fell backwards, Peter pulled his back against his chest. He wrapped his big arms around Kip’s chest hugging him tight against him.

“I didn’t mean to lie to you,” Peter whispered low into his ear. “Baby it’s just difficult. Just give me some time. I know we can work this out and get through this.”

Peter started to kiss the outer shell of his ear. Kip bristled at the touch. A few months ago he would have caved under the onslaught of attention from his older lover. He would have begged Peter to fuck him, to make him come. But now the only thing he felt was loathing.

“Get off me.” Kip pulled out of Peter’s embrace. “You no Peter, why don’t you go home to your fiancé. Maybe she’ll believe your lies.”

“Your young, you can’t possible understand what I’m going through,” Peter growled at him.

Kip rolled his eyes as he started to turn away. He didn’t need to hear any more excuses. Their relationship was over and he owed nothing to Peter.

“Baby, stop. I’m sorry okay.” Peter went to grab onto his arm again. At Kip’s raised eyebrow he raised his hands up in surrender. “I just wish my life were different.”

"If you don't like it, change it," Kip said. Without a backward glance he left the room. As he walked down the long hallway he thought about all he gave up to be with Peter and it was all for nothing.

He met Peter almost two years ago when he came to offer Kip an athletic scholarship to Clausen State. Kip had plenty of offers from other schools but it was Peter who made the offer he couldn’t refuse. He hated himself for letting his youthful attraction dictate where he attended college. The only thing good that came out of coming to Clausen was meeting the adorably shy shortstop.

Kip reached the parking lot and got into his car. The sun was beating down hard and the temperature was so high a person could fry an egg on the sidewalk.

He turned over the engine and flipped on the AC. The warm air became cool within seconds. Kip closed his eyes and relaxed back against his seat. A smiled tugged at his lips as he thought back to the first time he saw Lance.

When Kip arrived on campus he had met the whole team but there was only one guy who stood out amongst the rest, Lance Kinsley. He was older than Kip by one year but painfully shy. That attracted Kip to him instantly but he was still with Peter so he brushed those feelings aside. Because unlike Peter, Kip wasn’t a cheater or a liar.

Kip hated knowing he wasted so much precious time with Peter when he now knew that Lance had feelings for him. Well, that was all in the past now. He was free to be with who he wanted and he wanted Lance.

He smacked his hand on the dashboard like a judge making a ruling. Whatever it takes he would make Lance his for more than just a one-time tumble in bed. There was something between them, he felt it deep inside. He just prayed Lance felt the same.

Gripping the gear shift tight in his hand, Kip put the car into drive. He had a date with his blond haired angel and he didn’t want to be late.

I've Been Interviewed!!!

2012-01-02T13:36:00.000-06:00

The title says it all, I've been interviewed over at the Long and Short Reviews Erotic Romance website. It was fun and I really enjoyed answering the questions. Every writer is different and to get an insight to their point of view is intriguing. So if you have time, stop by and check out my interview. I'd deeply appreciate it. I talk about what I think makes good erotic fiction and who some of my favorite authors are.

The website has gone through a complete make over, very impressive. I personally love the darker colors. As I like to say, shiny and new! So if you haven't stop in over there recently, you should just to check out the new site. Definitely worth it!

Good News!

2011-12-29T16:30:00.000-06:00

So a few weeks ago I signed a contract for a book with Siren Publishing. Folks I was sitting in mild traffic when I opened that email and let’s just say I was screaming and happy dancing for all to see. I’m like that whenever I get that acceptance email but I was coming from a doctor’s appointment so I needed some good news.

The story is called Miles’s Awakening and the series is titled Warriors of the Light. It’s a paranormal themed story with a twist on how we’ve come to have shifters and vampires in our world. It’s all because of witches. I thought it would be entertaining to have the cause for all these creatures were to have witches be the bad guys. Not all witches but some are bad or abuse there magical gifts.

In Miles’s Awakening the character of Miles meets a vampire named Ben who has been sent to protect him. Ben soon explains all the messed up shit in the world and that they are soul mates. Poor Miles passes out from the shock. Who wouldn’t, right?

I question whether or not to have the soul mate or mate aspect in the story. Ultimately I went with it because deep down I think most people wished that there was that one special person made just for them. Love does crazy things to people but it does make the world go round or so I’m told. LOL! Just kidding! It does, sort of. *wink, wink*

I’m also trying to get some reading in while writing and I’m diving into Anitra Lynn McLeod’s Gridiron Gods series. Not bad so far. I actually read book number two first and it kind of fucked me up. Some things left me going huh? I don’t get it. So now I’m reading the first in the series so I have a better grasp on what is going on.

Well I’m off to write and read. Hope everyone has an awesome rest of the week and weekend!

Virtual Book Tour

2011-12-27T21:46:00.000-06:00

I started a virtual book tour and I just got to say that doing that over the Christmas holiday was a complete fail on my part. Between kids, family, illness and Christmas I haven't been doing a good job promoting this thing. This is an extremely busy time of the year for me which I'm sure is the same for most people but its better late than never.

CBLS Promotions has put together I virtual book tour for me for Fate's Second Chance. I'm giving a copy away at each stop for one lucky winner. All you have to do is leave a comment and a name is drawn at random.

Feel free to visit any or all the stops. Some of the blog host have reviews or I've done a guest post. And let me just say the guest blog post were hard to do. I've been battling this head cold and my thoughts are all over the place.

Below is a list of tour dates. Stop by if you can!

Silver Flash Wednesday!

2011-12-21T00:00:00.001-06:00

Happy Wednesday! Its Silver Flash time again. It’s a few days before Christmas and I wanted to do a Christmas themed story and I couldn’t do that with my Out of his League story, beings as its summer time in that story. So I took the characters from the very first story I ever wrote and had them celebrate the holiday. It’s a short story I wrote last January called the Luck of the Irish. The story was published at the Long and Short Reviews Whipped Cream free read website. Feel free to click on the cover on the left and it will take you to the page the story is located on. No pressure only if you want. By no means do your need to read that story to follow along with this one.

This prompt will be our last before Christmas, and this week's Prompt Diva, Pender Mackie, has given us:

He/she didn't like secrets.

"Smells like pine needles in here."

Here are the alternate prompts:

Union suit, balance, Hari Krishna or

red balls or

Tis the season to be (fill in the blank)

As always I will leave the links to the other Silver Flashers this week at the bottom. Lots of good reading!

A Lucky Christmas

Patrick had gotten over to Ben’s house three hours before he was due to come home. His friend Ryan said he was over doing it, but the need to make their first Christmas together outweighed practicality.

It was Christmas Eve and he had one hell of time trying to find a tree the day before Christmas. All that were left were either to small, tons of gaps between the branches, or had been painted a god awful color. A man actual tried to sell him a red tree. Said it went great with his red hair. He had rolled his eye at the comment.

Like I haven’t heard that one before.

Finally he found the perfect tree. The right height and full, well at least full on one side. He planned on shoving the thing in the corner to make up for its one minor defect.

He decorated the tree with Ben’s favorite color in mind. Red balls adorn the tree and white twinkling lights wrapped from the base to the top where a glowing star sat.

He found an ornament that mark their first Christmas together. Patrick smiled as he fingered the silver plated ornament. He hoped it was one of many to come.

When they met back in March, Patrick thought it was just going to end up being a one night stand. Never in a million years did he picture himself dating one of the sexiest firefighters he had ever seen. But even without Ben’s good looks he was a great guy; sensitive and above all else caring. His heart was so big Patrick wasn’t sure how it fit into his chest. He’d give the shirt off his back to help someone and donate his last dollar to any cause he believed him. The man was a giver not a taker and that right there made him more attractive than any man Patrick had ever met.

With the tree finished, Patrick went to change. Time was running out and Ben would be home soon. Patrick’s plan was to be positioned under the tree when Ben walked through the door. In an attempt to seduce his boyfriend and cover up the fact that he went and got a tree without him.

As he walked out of the bedroom he grabbed a blanket to lie under the tree so he wasn’t lying on the rough carpet.

Patrick positioned himself on his side facing the door and waited. He still had an hour before Ben got home. He started to fidget with the hem of the red silk boxer shorts he wore. He hoped the bright red didn’t make him look even whiter than he already was. The cures of being fair skinned.

He pulled the Santa hat off his head and rolled over on to his stomach. All the adrenaline in his body started to drain away and he found himself yawning so wide his jaw popped.

“Just a few minutes,” Patrick said on a yawn. “I’m going to rest my eyes just for a few minutes.”

****

Ben walked through his front door and was met by flashing lights. He took a step back to make sure he was in the right apartment. Number three forty-seven. It was his apartment.

“Patrick,” Ben said to himself. He shook his head as he pushed through the door.

They hadn’t had time to go get a tree and of course his boyfriend would have been too excited to wait for him. The sprite of a man had more energy that at times Ben couldn’t keep up. So it was no surprise that he now stood looking at a tree with brightly colored red balls and way to many white lights covering the huge tree.

How the hell did he get it up the stairs?

As he walked further into the room he caught sight of Patrick curled into a ball at the bottom of the tree. He smiled to himself because getting Patrick truly was the best gift ever. Ben never would have thought a chance meeting in a bar would bring him the love of his life.

Ben knelt down next to his lover and gently ran a finger down his check. Patrick sighed and nuzzled into the touch like a satisfied cat. God he loved him.

He quietly removed his gloves and coat. Ben laid down on his side facing Patrick. With his head propped up on his hand and he stared at Patrick. Every so often the lights would flash lightening up his sweet face.

Ben rested his hand on Patrick’s hip. Patrick moaned and opened his eyes. The sight of the bright grassy green eyes melted Ben’s heart every time he saw them.

“Oh shit!” Patrick said as he sat up. “I wanted to surprise you and I fell asleep.” He rubbed his hand down his face. “I can never do anything right.”

Ben chuckled. “Sweetie, I would have to disagree with you.” Ben pointed up the tree. “I’m very surprised. How many guys have a partner that would sneak into their apartment and decorate for Christmas?” He winked at Patrick.

A smile broke out across Patrick’s face. “I guess you’re right.”

“I am.” Ben pulled Patrick down to lay across his chest. “Now that you’re awake I’m ready to open my present.”

“I forgot your present at my apartment.” Patrick smacked a hand across his face.

“No you didn’t.” Ben pulled at the waist of Patrick’s silky boxers. “You’re the only present I want.”

He knew he said the right thing when Patrick grinned down at him. He fell forward and covered Ben’s mouth with his own. Ben took control of the kiss. He wanted to show Patrick that he truly was the greatest gift of all and Ben hoped his gift proved the point. A key to his apart with a note asking the little red head to move in.

I hope everyone enjoyed my PG flash this week. Thanks for stopping by and I wish you all a safe and happy holiday!!!

Stuff Your Stockings Blog Hop!

2011-12-16T08:25:00.000-06:00

Happy holidays to everyone! Today’s blog is geared toward two of my favorite Christmas movies of all time, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation and A Christmas Story. I can watch these movies anytime of the year and I still laugh my butt off as if it were my first time seeing the holiday classics, well classics in my opinion.

I’ll start off with A Christmas Story. The premises of the movie is this little boy Ralphie wants a BB gun for Christmas. Throughout the whole movie people keep telling him he’ll shoot his eye out, which pretty much happens at the end. He breaks his glasses and tells his mother it was an icicle. Lying, and on Christmas day no less, is a major no-no. But nevertheless he doesn’t get caught and he falls asleep that night holding his Red Ryder BB gun. This year I feel a special connection to this movie and the whole you’ll shoot your eye out bit because my fool husband bought our two oldest sons BB guns for Christmas. I’m sure some of my fellow mothers and fathers out there feel my pain and concern.

The second movie is by far my favorite. It’s a movie I loved watching with my father when he was alive and now I enjoy watching it every Christmas with my husband, National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation. The cast of odd ball characters and the funny little lines from the movie have me in stitches the whole time. I quote the movie throughout the whole month of December. Without fail when my hubby hangs the Christmas lights around the house I’ll always say, “There not twinkling Clark”, if you’ve seen the movie you’ll know why that is funny. My husband laughs every time. And by far cousin Eddie is the funniest character. His cluelessness is classic. Then toward the end when they find a squirrel in the tree and they all run around the house trying to get away from it, has me laughing so hard tears spring to my eyes.

Okay I’m done babbling and will get to the contest for the Stuff Your Stocking. I’m giving out a $25 gift card to Amazon as well as a copy of my debut release Fate’s Second Chance. Since National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation is my favorite holiday movie my contest question comes from it.

What is the name of Cousin Eddie’s dog in National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation??

Contest runs from the 16^th-18^th. If more than one person guesses right I will draw a name at random. Contest winner will be announced on Monday the 19^th. Good Luck!!!

Be sure to stop by the other author’s participating in the blog hop. There are some great prizes up for grabs. I hope you enjoy my little contest as well as my blog. I can be found on Twitter and Facebook. Don’t be afraid to stop by any time!

I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday season!

Out of His League Part 2

“Don’t stop on my account,” Kip said as he stepped into the shower stall forcing Lance to take a step back.

“Wh-what are you doing in here?” Lance asked as his eyes darted from side to side.

Kip’s brow lifted and his mouth twisted into a smile. His shoulder ached from throwing pitch after pitch but he wasn’t about to let this opportunity pass him by. To finally have Lance Kinsley within reach was a special treat he wouldn’t deny himself.

Lance’s wholesome boy next door good looks and his naive innocent nature strung Kip to imaginable heights. His golden hair when hit just right by the sunlight appeared to have a halo surrounding it. An angel sent from heaven to drive him completely insane with desire.

“I think it’s rather obvious what I’m doing in here.” Kip looked Lance’s body over from head to toe. He licked his lips as drops of water ran down Lance’s chest. “But the more interesting question is what are you doing in here?”

“I was showering until I was interrupted by you.”

Lance straightened his back standing to his full height. When he did his hands fell away from around his package. Kip damn nearly swallowed his tongue as he got another glimpse of Lance’s gorgeous cock. Bubbles clung to the thatch of hair surrounding the semi erect shaft highlighting the reddened length and flared head.

Kip couldn’t take it. The sight of Lance standing naked in front of him proved to be too much. He stepped forward and bumped chest with Lance. A small squeak left Lance’s mouth and Kip’s smile deepened. He pulled Lance’s hips tight against his own grinding their cocks alongside one another.

“We shouldn’t be doing this,” Lance said as his fingers dug into Kips biceps as he held on.

Kip could respect Lance’s hesitation since they were in a locker room where anyone could walk in and catch them at any moment. But he had already waited too long to find out if the blond cutie with the bright blue eyes tasted as sweet as he looked.

“Yes we should,” Kip growled. He dropped his head forward and inhaled the spicy soap that covered Lance’s body. Kip nipped the soft skin causing Lance to moan.

Without a second thought Kip covered Lance’s mouth with his own. Lance didn’t even try to pretend he didn’t want it and opened wide for Kip’s long hard deep kiss. A slight tremble ran throughout Lance’s body causing Kip to hold him tighter.

“Please.” Lance gasped.

Kip grinned as he kissed along Lance’s jaw line. He loved how quickly Lance responded to his touch. The man just came minutes before but his shaft filled with blood until the soft skin pulled tight over his thick erection.

He walked Lance backwards until he hit the hard tile wall. Kip shifted his stance so he could grip his and Lance’s dicks in a firm hold to stroke along their lengths. The water eased his movements and he gently started to rock his hips into Lance’s.

The sounds Lance made lit his soul on fire. It was like a crackle of electricity across his skin shocking him with every noise the other man made. Kip worked both their shafts up and down, twisting his wrist on the up stroke smearing the moisture oozing from the slits at the top. He moaned at the rough handling of his own pole. The need to come had his toes curling. Never had a hand job felt so intoxicating. Especially one given by himself.

“I’m going to come.”

Kips breath hitched as he felt the first jet of cum shoot from Lance’s cock. His balls tightened to his body and he painted Lance’s abs with his cream. Lance dropped a hand to Kip’s waist pulling him closer as he rode out his orgasm. Kip loved seeing the normally calm man come undone in his arms. His sweet and pure angel looked thoroughly debauched from their love making.

Love? That came out of nowhere, Kip thought to himself.

As the warm water cascaded over their bodies their combined breathing evened out. Kip leaned back far enough to cup the side of Lance’s face. He stared into Lance’s eyes and saw no regret. His lips curled into an evil grin as he took Lance’s lips once again. The man surrendered without a fight. Lance Kinsley wanted him just as bad. No way could he fake that reaction.

Kip rested his forehead against Lance’s. He wanted more and by the feel of Lance racing pulse so did he.

“Come back to my apartment with me?” Kip whispered.

Lance’s eyes sprung open and he stared at Kip. It felt like a lifetime, not mere seconds before he spoke again. “Okay.”

Kip smiled as he watched Lance’s cheeks blush a bright red. He couldn’t resist helping Lance finish washing up then helped towel him dry. They dressed in silence.

“Here’s my address. Meet me there in twenty minutes. Okay?” Kip held out a piece of paper with his address written on it.

“Okay, see you in twenty.” Lance smiled as he took the paper. He hesitantly moved forward and brushed his lips across Kip’s. Kip drew him close and deepened the kiss. With one last nip to Lance’s full bottom lip he pulled back.

“See you in a few.”

Lance smiled over his shoulder before exiting the room. Kip didn’t know if he could wait twenty minutes until he saw his angel again.

“I see you’ve moved on.”

The sound of that familiar voice caused the hairs on his neck to stand on end. Great. Just what he didn’t need right now. Kip turned to stare at his ex, whom also happened to be the assistant coach of the Gray Wolves.

Out of His League Part 1

“Hey, Lance?”

Lance could vaguely hear Aaron calling his name. He was to enthralled watching Kip peek around his shoulder to check the base runners before he threw the ball. Lance sighed. It was a thing of beauty to watch Kip Edgerton pitch a ball. The man put his body and soul into every throw. From the step back to the lunge forward and release of the ball from his grip. It was truly art in motion any baseball player worth his salt would appreciate.

“Earth to Lance.” Aaron snapped his fingers in Lance’s face. He turned to his friend. “You keep looking at him like that, everyone is going to no you got a thing for the guy.”

Lance forced out a laugh. “I don’t have a thing for Kip.” Total lie. “Can’t I just appreciate the man’s talent?” Lance waved a hand toward Kip gearing up on the mound for another throw. “Just look how the ball flies across the plate.”

“Whatever man. You’re smitten.”

Lance slammed the baseball in his hand down into his glove hard. “Yeah, I know.”

“But you do have a point. The boy’s got some muscle behind that ball. I wonder why he didn’t sign with a division one team?”

Lance looked toward Kip and thought that was an excellent question. Kip had speed, accuracy, and perfect timing to pick off any base runner. No ways around it, the guy was beyond talented.

Clausen State University, home of the Gray Wolves, wasn’t a terribly small school but for a guy who was destined for the big leagues it just seemed out of the ordinary. Any top notch, more widely known, college baseball team would have loved to have such an amazing player on their roster. Plus it would have garnered Kip more scouting opportunities.

Lance wasn’t complaining having Kip attend Clausen State. Kip was a god amongst men with his steal blue eyes, black tousled hair, and a body built for all kinds of sin. He snuck glances here and there in the locker room and new for a fact that the man had muscles on top of muscles. He looked as if he had been chiseled out of stone. A body cut like Kip’s came from complete dedication and Lance was forever grateful for that dedication.

Kip had become his nightly jerk off session fantasy. Most nights he came so hard he saw stars behind his eyelids as he clenched them tight. Just picturing Kip in his tight baseball pants that clung nicely to his even tighter ass made Lance hard within seconds. He would picture Kip smiling that crooked smile of his and asking him what he wanted. And by wanted, Lance new it wasn’t what he desired for dinner.

“Ugh.” Lance sighed in frustration. "I'm not superman, you know." He reached down to adjust his cup. It was rather difficult to walk with a hard on when there was a thick barrier of plastic hindering its growth. “He’s just so fucking perfect and I can’t control my dick when I’m around him.”

“Well I guess you and the man of steel have something in common.” Aaron chuckled. “But seriously dude, I’m your best friend and I don’t want to see you get hurt. Hell we don’t even know if the guy is gay.”

“I no. My luck he’s probably as straight as they come.” His heart ached every time he thought about some lucky college coed warming Kip’s bed. With one more backwards glance he headed to the locker room.

He separated form Aaron once they entered the large room. He sat on the bench in front of his locker and started to unbutton his jersey. He was hot and sweaty, and thanks to Kip Edgerton, horny. To top it off he was surrounded by twenty-four naked or partially naked guys.

Lance took his time getting undressed. Walking into the showers with a raging hard on would probably piss some of his teammates off. He leaned back on the bench and through the steamy haze he could see that the showers had emptied out. He removed his pants then his jock and cup. He threw them in his locker as he headed for the showers.

The middle stall was empty on either side so he took that one. He let the hot water cascade over his body letting it work out the kinks in his shoulders. Grabbing the soap, Lance lathered up his hands and started to wash his body. As his hand trailed down his chest he lightly stroked his semi erect cock. He used his other hand to gently massage his ball. He moaned at the sensations spiraling through him. Lance to a step back to lean against the cold tiled wall to keep from falling over.

He imagined it was Kip pushing him against the wall and using his warm muscular body to hold him in place. Kip would then grip Lance’s shaft tightly in his fist using his calloused fingers to push him over the edge. The soap adding to the sensual up and down motion Kip would use. His legs began to tremble as little sparks of electricity ran though his body, igniting every nerve ending. Lance could almost feel the tickle of Kip’s chest hair against his body.

Lance bit his lower lip to stifle his moan. His orgasm exploded from his body shooting ropes of pearly white cum over the wet floor. His eyes drifted shut. God he wished Kip was here and touching him, loving him, fulfilling his every desire.

He took a deep breath, then released it. Lance was coming back to his senses when he heard someone clear their throat. He slowly opened his eyes to see the star pitcher leaning against the stall door. The famous crooked smile was aimed right at Lance. He started to panic and quickly dropped his hands to cover his dick.

“A little late for that don’t you think?”

Making Some Changes

2011-12-02T13:24:00.000-06:00

I'm trying my best to update my blog and get the most out of it. So if anyone clicks on something and nothing appears, I'm working on it.

Who new blog spot could be so confusing? Or is this just me??

I have a dinner party/awards dinner for my hubby's work tonight. So I don't have a lot of time to mess with this now. And it will drive me crazy all night. I hate starting something and not finishing it.

Until then here's a yummy picture. I love the Internet!! He looks so deep in thought. I just want to pat him on the head and ask what's going on inside that pretty little head of his. Sad but yes I have heard this line before. LOL!

My Love of the X-Men

2011-11-29T22:41:00.000-06:00

I could kick myself for waiting so long to see this movie but between family, work, and writing I just hadn’t had the chance. But today I watched X-Men First Class and I freaking loved it! James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender were excellent. Then there was Kevin Bacon as the bad guy. Totally shocked me. And I wouldn’t be lying if I didn’t say the small cameo by Wolverine himself, Hugh Jackman, didn’t surprise me.

Now this could just be me and my love for M/M romances but I was hoping that Charles and Erik would end up together. Crazy right? That would never happen in a high budgeted film. But still they would have made an awesome couple. I mean realistically Hollywood and the general world at large need to get over the dislike of m/m or f/f relationships on the silver screen. I would have to image the gays of the world are sick of seeing nothing but straight people themed movies.

Even without a torrid love affair between Charles and Erik the movie still rocked. I never read the comic books so I often wondered how it all began. I enjoyed it immensely and would recommend it to all. I’m a sci-fi geek so this was right up my alley.

Titles and Character Names

2011-11-27T22:21:00.000-06:00

People often laugh at me when I say I'm not very creative. Which is funny since I write. What I’m not creative about is character names and book titles. I found it frustrating. Before I write a story I sit down and come up with character names and descriptions. The part that takes the longest is coming up with the characters names. I usually Google baby names and read through lists of names until one jumps out at me. But the name has to fit the character I thought up in my head, so this can really be time consuming. To me the name has to be believable to the character and the story. It all has to jive together.

Now when it comes to a title that makes me sweat. It has to be catchy yet pertain to the story. One of the first things readers notice is the flipping title so it needs to be able to stick with them. A good cover is also helpful. Writing a story is like building the perfect house. You have to lay a sturdy foundation; plot, characters, conflict, and resolve. Then build up from those main supporting beams. All of these factors are why it takes me awhile to write a story. In my mind the story has to be something I enjoy and find believable because if I don’t believe in it how do I expect the readers too? As the writer you have to take the readers on a journey through the world you created and at the end you hope they enjoyed the ride. If not they give you a shitty review.

The current story I just submitted, still waiting to hear back on, I had to change a main characters name. I had to do this because I another more well-known author just had a book come out with the exact same title I had for my book. Made me laugh at first but then I was like, OH SHIT! I had to think of name that fit this character that I had been calling by another name for months. Had I been thinking clearly I would have changed the title as well. So if this publishing house takes it I most definitely will have to change the title.

All writers have their own method on how they come up with character names, title, and story ideas. You have to do what works best for you. And for me I have to feel like I know my characters, so I bring them to life, only in my own mind, but nevertheless to life. I always worry when I tell my husband the characters keep talking in my head and won’t shut up, that he thinks I might be going crazy. He usually just nods at me and smiles. I love that he gets me.

Well I’m off to watch my favorite show Once Upon a Time. I just love this show and it doesn’t hurt that it has a gorgeous cast. One of my favs is the sheriff. He’s just so handsome and has a sexy accent. What’s not to love? The man sure can take a photograph too!

Giveaway Winners: SBBG5

The link below takes you to the page with the winners on it. This was an awesome giveaway. A lot of stuff was up for grabs. That's my kind of contest. Even if you don't like my work there was different authors offering up some great books.

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!

2011-11-20T23:57:00.000-06:00

I'm trying really hard to make Sunday my blog day. At least I'm trying to. Between family, work, and writing shit gets pushed aside or I just plane forget, which happens quite often. I'm only human.

Well my show wasn't on tonight, Once a Upon a Time. That sucked. So I watched Fridays Supernatural. So good and an awesome cliff hanger ending. I hate that crap but gets the viewers coming back every week. It never ceases to amaze me how they can come up with story line after story line for that show. Impressive.

I've come to terms that promoting my book is kind of hard and just not fun for me. On this journey I discovered there are a ton of groups you can join and through these groups you promote your work, post excerpts, and just chat with other writers and readers. Now in theory this sounds like fun and easy work, but it ain't. This is just my opinion but they seem kind of clicky. Granted I'm a new writer and a lot of these people have been writing for years but I just don’t know when to jump into the chat. And when I do sometimes no one answers back. Makes it hard for us newbies to get involved and meet new people. But it is the nature of the beast promoting is. I'm doing my best to get my name out there, but like me, people have their favorite authors that they follow and it’s hard to gain your own audience. Just got to keep trying.

Fate's Second Chance has had one review and it was great. Got 5 Hearts from MM Good Book Reviews. It definitely put a smile on my face. Link to review below.

In other news, this bitch got a new laptop! Sony finally agreed my Vaio was unfixable and agreed to give us a full refund. I'm now the proud owner of a new hp laptop.

Well writing calls. Happy reading!

My New Favorite Show

2011-11-13T22:24:00.000-06:00

I don’t watch a lot of television but the shows I do watch I absolutely just love and a loyal watcher of those shows every week. Currently my favorite show is abc's Once Upon a Time. I love the whole idea of fairy tale characters being held captive in a small town unbeknownst to them. The little boy Henry is the only one aware of everything that has happened and he seeks out his birth mother to help him save his town. Too sweet. I find it funny that Henry's adoptive mom is the evil witch. The actress who plays the evil queen is owning that part. She's very attractive but her actions and personality make you hate her. Bravo to her I really believe her part.

This is one show I hope that doesn’t get canceled. However I wonder how they will be able to carry this show into further seasons. I hope us viewers get the chance to see!

On my writing front, I just sent out a submission to a different publisher. Every time I send one out my stomach sits in knots until I hear something back. Extremely frustrating. My only concern with this latest submission is that it is a paranormal story. Vampires, shifters of all kinds, and witches. The main difference in my story is that it’s due to witches why there are vampires and shifters in the world. Hell have no fury like a scorned witch. It’s different but is it enough to catch people’s attention? I find it entertaining but that's just me, of course I’m a little partial since I wrote it. It’s a story that can be carried on into a series with several different aspects of the paranormal world told. I hope it gets accepted and I get the chance to bring that alternative world to life.

White Chicken Chili

Well the weather here in the good old Midwest is cold and wet. I just pray its not a snow filled winter like the last one. I mean honestly my kids were home more than not. When I was in school we didn't get out for shit.

Tonight was my daughters music program at school. It was patriotic themed. Very cute but a little to long for my taste. I no that sounds mean and heartless but when you have a sick kid at home and two restless little boys sitting like two ticking time bombs at your feet ready to go off in any minute, can cause a bit of a panic.

My choice for the title is because that is what I made for dinner. I found this recipe online about a year ago, cant remember the website I got it from, I googled it for heaven's sakes. My point is that its a simple quick dinner to prepare and make.

All you need is: Chicken ( I buy a rotisserie chicken and just remove the meat to put in the chili)
3- 16oz Cans of Northern Beans
3- 14.5oz Cans of Chicken Broth
1- 4.5 oz Can of Chopped Green chili
1- 12oz Can of Shoe-peg Corn
1 Tb. of Cumin
1 Tb. of Oregano
1/2 Tsp. of Cayenne Pepper

Combine and let cook on low heat for about 4-5 hours. (This is what I do anyways.)
I serve with Sour Dough bread because that's what my family likes.

On the writing front I just finished a manuscript for a paranormal romance. I no, everyone is writing a paranormal story, but I love paranormal stories. Real life gets a bit boring sometimes and I personally like to step out of the norm when I read. I'm reading through and tweaking it to make sure its perfect for submission. Only question now is who to submit it to. I no who I want to submit it to but I'm going to stay mum about that until I'm 100% for sure.

My Love for Candy

2011-11-02T20:00:00.000-05:00

Trick or treating with the kids this year was fun. The weather held so that means we weren’t rained on. Always a plus. We actually stayed in our own neighborhood this year and trick or treated to our fellow neighbors. I must say as I looked through my kids candy they really cleaned up. The location of where you trick or treat definitely shows in the candy the kids bring home.

We live in a newer housing addition with a tab bit larger homes. My hubby always hated taking the kids around our hood because of all the walking and hills. Well I love to run and walk so this year we hung around the Hills of River Meadows where we live, I no classy name for a neighborhood. I feel so debonair just saying it. LOL!!!

By talking about where we live, I hope I don’t come off as a snob, because I’m not, but I am a candy snob. I like to think other people are just as picky about their candy as I am. I'm a fan of M&M's, Snickers, Milky Way (regular or dark), and the list goes on. However, I must say my all time favorite candy bar is Bar None and wouldn’t you know it they don’t make those any more. So depressing. To think my kids will never know that particular chocolaty goodness.

The pic is of my youngest son and me. He was so proud of his dinosaur costume.

Fate's Second Chance is Released This Week!!

2011-10-30T21:01:00.000-05:00

My first book, Fate’s Second Chance, gets released this week through Silver Publishing. I must say this all seems so surreal. To think I set my mind to something and stuck with it to the very end, or in this case the beginning, to get my book published. It’s a freaking miracle and it happened faster than I had anticipated.

I'm not one of those people who knew all their life they wanted to write. I knew I loved to read but that was it. My love for reading helped me escape from the craziness of my life. Never once did I ever imagine this; book being released on Thursday and two more that have been accepted for future release. I must say I’ve gone above and beyond my expectations. I guess the moral is you’re never too old to dream BIG!!!

On to other things in my crazy life, Halloween is tomorrow and I have four kids who are so excited it makes me sick. I keep thinking of all the candy I will eventually throw away. Such a waste but for a few hours my kids will feel bigger than life prancing out in their costumes. For a parent so worth it.

My hubby helped the kids carve pumpkins since I had to work today and I’ve been under the weather lately. I just got to say they are the ugliest pumpkins I have ever seen. He actually let our ten and seven year olds carve, with a knife, their own pumpkins. The one my oldest son did is messed up looking but oddly enough it kind of fits his personality. LOL!

Below is the link to Silver Publishing for Fate’s Second Chance. Out November 3!

My Very First Cover!!!

2011-09-29T22:45:00.000-05:00

I got to see my very first book cover yesterday. And I must say it's amazing! I absolutely love it.

Fate's Second Chance is due to release November 3rd through Silver Publishing.

Its a story about accidental body switching, guardian angels, and love. It has its sad and happy moments. After the edits I'm really pleased with the way it turned out and cant wait for it to be released. I'm hoping that any extreme religious people don't get offended by it. They may find my take on religion offensive but I have an open mind and when it comes to my beliefs I'm open to the possibilities that anything is possible, plus I think God loves us all no matter what. So take it or leave it.

I never would have thought an idea I got while driving to my mother in laws house would become a published book. As corny as this may sound, I guess dreams really do come true. And its funny because I didn't no becoming a writer was my dream until I put pen to paper or in this generation finger tips to keyboard. LOL!

I hope people read it and enjoy themselves while doing it.

Big thanks to TR, couldn't have done it without you. Thank you for your understanding for all the late nights I'm up writing and when I randomly stop what I'm doing to jot down a note. Luv ya!!!

The Useless Bitching We As People Do That Gets Us Nowhere

2011-09-22T13:30:00.000-05:00

I just recently started writing and I have three books schedule to be released through Silver Publishing. I’m new to all the ins and outs of writing, I like learning from other authors out there, and it never seems to amaze me how some people just complain about things they just cannot change. I totally get that. Ask my husband he’d tell you I’m the biggest offender of bitching when there isn’t a damn thing I can do to change the outcome. Were people its just what we do.

Okay, I’ve gotten off track here. I read an interesting blog by an author who went on about how some fans annoy them. I’m not saying anything bad about this author since I’m a huge fan of their work but come on ranting in an email or blog might just seem a bit over the top. Ultimately, you as the author have to put up with the stupid questions, hate mail, and just the all-out absurdity of people in general. It sucks but in the end, you as the author are the one laughing all the way to the bank. Someone hates your work, so what? They bought it and obviously enjoyed it enough to compliment you or send you hate mail, but either way what you wrote stayed with them. And more often than not, that same crazy fan will buy more of your work. Crazy? I know but it’s just the way people are. I've read some interesting reviews where the reviewer hated the book yet kept reading that authors work. That reader couldn't of hated it that much.

I can be quoted enough around my house and amongst my friends as to say, I hate people. Not all people but a good portion. I have to say there are some real crazies out there and I choose not to be sucked into their drama. I can understand a person’s frustration about being hounded by people asking the most ridiculous questions. I've got four kids that ask stupid shit all the time I can relate. But then you’re the one who gets the email and that being said can say fuck it I’m not acknowledging that with a response. Because there is just some over the top people who just don’t have a clue about anything and think others are here on earth to just serve their every need. LOL! Hence why I can’t stand most people.

Authors are not in the public eye as much as actors but the same rule applies, just because you have a fan base doesn’t me you have to give all yourself to the fans. It’s unreasonable to expect a person to please everyone. We would like to but at the end of the day, we all have our own lives and families to take care of. You want to acknowledge and respond to your fans but sometimes you just have to let things go and just not let the insane things they say or want get to you. If you do, you’ll be angry all the time. This is a reason I stopped talking to the majority of my family. You can’t please everyone; you just have to please yourself. I think that’s a line in a song. I’m shrugging because I can’t remember!

The books I’ve written might not be a major or hell even a minor success but if one person buys my work and enjoys it I will have felt like I’ve succeeded in something I didn’t think possible. I’ve heard a ton of stories about authors waiting years to be published or never being published at all and that scares me. I just starting writing this past January and three of the five manuscripts I’ve submitted have been accepted. From what I gather, I’m fortunate in that. And I hope I can remember if someone emails me complaining about what I wrote about that I can keep a cool head and see it for what it’s worth. Feeding into others lunacy is no good for anyone. To keep your peace of mind you have to focus on your work. Because let’s face it for every person out there that hates you, there is one that loves you.

My Blogging Dilemma

2011-07-19T21:18:00.000-05:00

I've come to the conclusion I'm the worst blogger ever. If I'm not forgetting to blog something, I'm not out gaining followers. But it all works out in the end without a ton of followers I have no one to disappoint so there you go.

Anyway off to what I've been pondering lately. I just read a really good book, Who Better Than Canyon by DC Juris. Very entertaining read not riddled with sex scenes. Now I for one do love the sex scenes and many if possible, but it impresses me when an author can right a gripping love story without all that filler. This story had a few kisses between the leads but that was it. My point is the book was really good and I enjoyed it immensely.

Now the site I reviewed the book for had it in the erotic section. So naturally I asked if it should be put in the romance sections since their wasn't one single sex scene. I was told no because all GLBT books are put in the erotic section. Not a big deal and I totally respect how they place their books to be reviewed. It boils down to that some readers are still offended by gay couplings. I don't get it because a love story is a love story be it two women, two men, or a man and a woman.

Its funny that in this day and age people still have to walk on egg shells as to not offend anyone. Sex is sex and everyone is having one form of it, or at least I hope so. I looked up the definition of erotica and basically means to arouse sexual desire. Now I have read some books no matter what genre or pairing that are just a love story that didn't arouse any sexual thoughts in my mind.

All this is just my opinion and doesn't reflect anything on the web site I review for. I absolutely love the site and through them I get to read books by authors I wouldn't have been introduce to otherwise. I love to read and now I can write down what I thought of a certain book. Its fun but a struggle at times. Sometimes my creativity isn't always up to par and that just really sucks. To be a writer you need to keep those creative juices flowing sometimes easier said than done.

On my writing news I just submitted the second installment for the Twist of Fate series, Fate's Fortunate Mistake. Just waiting to hear back on that. I also submitted a Christmas story called The Christmas Elf. Its a short story only about eight thousand words. And I just have to say writing a short story is a lot harder to write than a thirty-five thousand piece of work, at least for me.

I'm constantly reading, writing, and spending time with my family. So in others words busy, busy, busy. But me being me I wouldn't have it any other way.

New York Passes Same Sex Marriage!!!

2011-06-25T00:01:00.000-05:00

After spending the night out with some friends I come home and check the news feed to find out same sex marriage passes in New York. I think that is just fucking fabulous. In my opinion no one should have to fight for the simple right to marry who they want. Just because I'm straight don't make me any more special than anyone else and the simple act of getting married should be allowed for all no matter the circumstances.

I no not every one shares my views and that is fine. Living in America gives us the right to have any opinion we so choose. When it comes to love, people in general shouldn't be so judgemental. Its like certain people aren't happy unless their fighting or putting others down and that just isn't right or fair. Love is free to give and free to have and if people no matter their situation want to get married more power to them.

I will have been married for ten years come the twenty-fourth of July and I cant imagine if someone said I couldn't marry him. He's my best friend and supports me no matter what. In the end were all just people wanting to live the best life we can and we all deserve the right to live it as we choose.

Way to go New York I'm proud of you!

People and Their F**king Opinion

2011-05-17T13:24:00.000-05:00

I'm suffering from a major headache, so when I don't feel well I tend to bitch, a lot. My left eye is killing me and its a little swollen. No clue why but it freaking hurts. The pain is radiating from the left side of my face to the other side. Frustrating as hell. The weather is nice but so freaking bright I don't want to sit outside. There is no sunglasses strong enough to block out the sun today. I really think my head might explode.

Anyway here's my bitch for the day. I was dropping child number 3 off at preschool today and I parked my car and walked to the door with number 3 & 4 children in tow. Of course my youngest doesn't want to hold my hand so I just hang on to his shirt. We pass some old lady who feels the need to tell me I should hold his hand because there are big trucks driving through the parking lot and he might get run over. Seriously!! I just wanted to say, "Do I look like a fucking idiot lady?" But feeling nice today I just mumbled all the way to the class room. I'm pretty certain some of the parents heard my opinion which consisted of plenty of F's words.

I mean seriously I wouldn't let my kids run across the road into the middle of traffic. Just because I'm not hovering over them every second doesn't mean I'm not close behind them. I have four kids I've come to learn they wont break when they fall and they wont get sick from dropping their chip on the floor than picking it up to eat it. 5 second rule is fine by me. I am pretty hard on my kids because I would die if anything ever happen to them, but I also no I have to let them be kids. It cracks me up when they do something and think I wont find out. I always have an eye on them and of course they are always willing to tell on one another. Funny kids.

Back to my complaint. I totally get wanting to give people advise when I see them doing shit that I don't agree with but I don't. I only need to worry about myself and how I raise my kids so their not complete fuck ups in the world.

Any who back to writing. Trying to finish the follow up to Fate's Second Chance. But I have to say with this headache I don't no how much I will get done. And I'm still waiting to hear back on my first submission Going Home. Waiting is a pain.

And It Begins!!!

2011-05-01T21:00:00.000-05:00

I got word yesterday that a publishing company is wanting to publish my book, or shall I say ebook. Of course anything can happen and they not publish it, but I did sign a contract for it. I'm really excited but dude it just added to my work load. All the cover art and blurbs sheets you need to fill out is a lot. This is something I've been wanting but it was so surreal when I got the email saying they liked it and want to publish it. Que me squealing like a little girl. I damn near fell running up the stairs to tell my hubby.

So now I'm working on pre-edits before I send it back to the editors. Which is always fun, being sarcastic there. I don't no about anyone else but after writing your story then having to reread it several times, kinda makes you go crossed eyed. But I do have to say this story is, to me very funny. I explained it to my sister as a romantic comedy. So hopefully others will like it.

Still waiting to hear back on my first submission. That one I already sent off the full manuscript, so who knows. I was completely thrown for a loop when this second story was accepted. Needless to say I'm thrilled.

So now its time to get back to it so I can get that manuscript sent back to the editor. That still sounds so weird to say. But I like it!

P.S. - I so need to steal hubby's laptop. His is way cooler than mine.

Moving Right Along

2011-04-14T13:57:00.000-05:00

I had another short story posted to the Long and the Short of It website today, An Eggcellent Offer. I thought the name was quite witty on my part. I wrote this short when I took a break from a larger project I was working on. I no crazy right? Take a break from writing to write something else? But I did. I think its a cute little story and so does my sister. She already found a misspelled word. Gotta love family!

I just submitted my full manuscript for Going Home to an editor. She emailed about three weeks ago and made some suggestion to make to the story and then send her the full edited manuscript. So now the dreadful process of waiting. I hate to wait. I get in my head to much thinking its not good enough or they wont like it. That shit will drive a person bat ass crazy. But I hope I have some good news soon.

Writing a story is like having kid, a lot of work. Except with writing I'm not required to chauffeur it around to soccer and baseball practice. Don't get me wrong I love my little monsters but the mouths on them, dear lord. I cuss a lot so what do I expect.

Well back to it I guess. I have work to do on another story I just finished and a review to get turned in. Its never ending around here, but I love it!!!

A Little More Stressful Than I Thought

2011-03-27T22:43:00.000-05:00

One would think that writing a story would be the hard part of the writing equation, but its not. For me, writing the story was the easy part, it was the query letter and synopsis that frustrated the hell out of me.

When you submit a story to a publisher, they require a query letter and a synopsis. A query letter is the cover letter for your submission. Your person info, story descriptions, and plus a simple break down of your story. The query letter isn't as bad as the synopsis but still stressful. A query letter is only suppose to be one page long, so in this case short and sweet is what they are looking for.

The synopsis, oh how I hate you. A synopsis is a break down of all your hard work into roughly three to four pages. Sometimes even less if required by publisher. Imagine you just wrote a twenty-five thousand word story and now you have to break it all down to the bare bones. It can be a little frustrating. I read that when you write a synopsis act as if your explaining it to a six year old. The trick is to write a short and to the point synopsis and still make it entertaining to an editor. Editors are busy people and don't have a lot of time to spend on long drawn out synopsises.

Me being me, I thought about it to much. I couldn't decide what to leave out of the synopsis. Its your work and you want them to see it all. So with my first submission I wrote that darn synopsis over and over a lot. Finally I was happy with it. Stressful!!

I'm still learning as I go and still have a lot to learn, but I'm committed to my writing. Therefore I don't have it in me to give up.

That Went Over Well

2011-03-17T21:05:00.000-05:00

The short story I wrote got posted to the Long and Short of It website today, I was really excited. I had some shocked family and friends, but they were all real supportive. My choice of topic to write about is a little hard for some to understand, but at least I didn't get any hate mail, or at least not yet.

For me, getting a short story posted on that website was a pretty big deal. It said not just my husband and sister liked it. Now granted I don't think The Luck of the Irish is the best thing I've ever read, but when writing a story with a word limit you cant really develop the characters the way you want to. That being said for my first writing project to be put on a website for others to read was a big deal to me. It gives me hope.

Right now I'm working on a longer story that I would classify as a sweet and funny love story. I'm big fan of the contemporary genre, so I write more towards that angle. I'm actually working on three writing projects right now. The question is still there will I ever get published? I don't know, I hope, but even if i don't writing is a good outlet for me.

Trying My Hand at Writing

2011-03-12T21:22:00.000-06:00

My name is Angie and this is me on my quest to become a writer. I loved to read and one day I woke up and realized I wanted to write. I always wanted to but never had the courage to try. I'm sure everyone has the same doubts and fears at one time or another. For me it was can I tell a good story? Will people like what I write? Can I stand the pressure of not getting published? This is all the crap that went through my mind.

I have always been an avid reader but in the last four years it has become my life. I actually have books all over my house and when my husband downloaded a amazon kindle to my laptop I thought I had died and gone to heaven. So to say the least reading for me is an obsession.

In January I was on the Internet and came across a website that would allow people to apply to review books. Sounded good to me, read for free and then review the book. I thought I can do this. So I have every since about the middle of January. At first I was nervous because here I was reading some of my favorite authors and then I had to write a review for them. Talk about pressure. But now I have really come to enjoy it. The ladies over at the Long and the Short of It are awesome, they are helpful and give you suggestion on how to make your reviews better. I love it. The more I got comfortable with doing the reviews I saw that on the Long and the Short of It you can submit short stories. I started thinking this could be a real good learning lesson for me. So that night I came up with a St. Patrick's Day themed story and the next day I put my thoughts into words and wrote The Luck of the Irish. I sent into the Long and the Short of It and they are going to publish it on St. Patrick's Day in the there Thursday free read section. To say I was excited was an understatement.

My choice of writing is a little hard for my husband to grasp. I like to write about relationships involving two men. To me its intriguing. My whole life I read traditional romances between a man and a woman, so when I stumbled across romance books involving men its like a door open up in my mind. I just like the dynamics that involve gay men relationships. I cant explain it but to me its beautiful.

I hope one day my writings do get publish but it they don't at least I can say I tried that's all any of us can say. But I do like to write and talk, so this blog should be something fun for me to do.
