Tuesday Tales - Sexy

My apologies for the long absence, but I've had my sister here from overseas - time was used for catching up on the last two years. Let's hope I will be back on a regular basis!

This is this week's prompt is SEXY

To give you a little reminder, Tyson Gaspaldi receives the Brownlow Medal, Best and Fairest AFL player, but instead of Katie, it's his mother sitting next to him. He...

JL Salter - Rescued by that new Guy in Town

Publisher: Astraea Press

ISBN: 9781621350828

My rating: 4/5


When Kris awakens in a costume, behind wooden bars inside a pitch-black community center, her only available rescuer is the hung-over new guy in town (who’s dressed as a pirate). Problem is: she’s sworn off men, especially buccaneers.

Badly burned four years ago by a player who ruined her financially, Kris Prima’s heart is locked down as tightly as her lifestyle is confined by those massive debts. When first assisted by recent newcomer R...

Susan Elizabeth Phillips - Honey Moon

Publisher: Pocket

ISBN:  978-0671735937

My rating: 2.5/5


Honey Jane Moon is a scrappy little know-it all—brave, smart, but ill-prepared to become the most famous child star in America, even though she’s not quite as young as everyone believes. It won’t take her long to drive the men in her life crazy. There’s Eric Dillion, a smoldering bad boy and one of Hollywood’s most gifted actors. And Dash Coogan, the last of the cowboy heroes, a man trapped on a screen too small to contain a legend....

Ty’s gaze went out over the ocean before looking back at her. Although teary and somewhat red, the beautiful blue colour of her eyes shone through brightly. As he scratched his head he asked, “Are you okay?”
With her mouth curving in...
