Celebratory Snipper: Shaped by You by Debra Jess #fantasy #scifirom via @DebraJess
While today's snippet is not no much celebratory, it's from a holiday romance so perfect for the season. Enjoy!
Snippet:
A super-hot shower scalded her to consciousness without the need for coffee. She didn’t bother with makeup but used her flat iron.

Modesty might be pointless if her perfect man had already seen he...

I'm kicking off a series of celebratory snippets for December with Carol Van Natta's Pet Trade, part of her Central Galactic Concordance space opera series. Enjoy!
My space opera series is set far in to the future, where humankind has expanded to 500+ colonized planets across the galaxy. Most old Earth-based holidays have been replaced by observances of birthdays and Solstice Day (winter and summer). In this scene from Pet Trade, set in the far north latitudes of a frontier planet, the h...
