Knots mini teaser chapter 5

Mark and Jeanie conversation from Chapter 5:
“We talked about it later after we . . . Well, you know.”
“Made love?”
“Yeah.”
“And how was that? Was it emotional?”
“No.” She tightened her arms around herself and still kept her eyes off him. “And not that it’s any of your business, Sir,” she said this word like it was a curse, “but it was stable.”
He exhaled in a slow, steady stream. “That’s another way of saying it was predictable and polite.”
“It was quiet and nice. There’s nothing wrong with that.” Her head finally snapped back at him.
“There’s a reason it’s called vanilla. Not just because it’s safe, but because when a relationship first starts out, everything’s exciting, hot and heavy. Then things die down over time. He touches the woman there X many times, she comes. She puts her mouth on him there, he gets hard. He pumps inside her quietly, no one says a word, no one really gets what they want but a meager orgasm they could’ve attained at their own hand. Vanilla gets old real quick, gets bland and it doesn’t even matter if it is still a basic, staple flavor, no one wants to have vanilla every day.”
“It’s boring,” she supplied.
He smiled and leaned into her, his lips at her ear, parting through her hair. “Exactly . . . And I don’t fuck a woman into being bored, nor do I do boring anywhere in my life at all.”

Sleeves mini teaser chapter 5

Kel and Casey conversation from Chapter 5:
“I had a moment there when you were making love to me,” she moistened her bottom lip, “when I could feel it in my bones, that I needed to be with you this way. That I needed to give you all of me, and in the end, I think I got way more than I ever gave up.”
“Jesus—is that why you let me act like a fucker, tearing into you like that?” He finally pulled out and ran his hands down his face and groaned in disgust. “You told me you don’t fuck like that. You didn’t want to hurt me, and I didn’t give you any other option.”
“What are you talking about?” She stretched and wore a sated, finished look.
Her skin was radiant and pink. Fuck it all. From this distance, he could still feel the warmth radiating off her.
What if . . . Oh shit! He wasn’t touching her anymore. What if the sting came back?
He settled both palms on her legs.
It was gone. For now . . . But how long would it last?
He swallowed the tears forming in the back of his throat and blinked away the ones forming in his eyes. “How am I supposed to feel when you were so good to me—I mean, you even had ice for me. Who does that? Who thinks of all of this shit so quick and on the fly?” He motioned with his head at the stuff she set out for him. He choked on a shaky breath.

Knots mini teaser chapter 4

Tia and Jeanie conversation from Chapter 4:
“He spanked you because of me?” Her voice cracked and she shoved up to sitting. Her heart about dropped into the mattress. She could never be okay with someone else being harmed because of her. How was that even something to consider? Why would he do that? Her eyes cut to the door once more.
Then something tightened inside her and her clit actually throbbed.
Oh God . . . This sounded scary and too erotic for her own good. Why was her body reacting this way?
Her nipples tightened and her breathing deepened.
Mark. Spanking.
Jesus, kill her now. Preferably with a paddle since that was what she was now visualizing—she was that demented.
“Yeah—” Tia laughed again “—he knew I was baiting him. I was pushing him on purpose, being a brat. He never spanked me in anger. Actually, he thought it was fun. He got out his aggression, and I got exactly what I wanted.”
“You wantedhim to do that to you?” Her throat was painfully dry. She searched her dresser once more for that water bottle.

Sleeves mini teaser chapter 4

Kel and Casey conversation from Chapter 4:
“Not even close.” He giggled again like a little kid. “You suck at this.”
“Sorry, I . . .” She pinched his ass for a moment and he grunted.
“Fuck—that makes me hard. You never did that before. You were always afraid ta hurt me. Me!” His left arm flew in the air, and then he gripped the back of her neck.

Knots mini teaser chapter 3

Mark and Jeanie conversation from Chapter 3:
“Did you want some bacon?” Those were still in the pan. He didn’t want to offend her because some women were horrified if he even mentioned bacon around them.
“God . . . bacon? Are you fucking kidding me?”
He grinned and cocked an eyebrow at her. Dirty mouth was right when she was shocked by something. Oh, how that made him want her even more.
“I love bacon!” She leaned over, tried to grab two pieces, and his instincts kicked in.
Swaaaat!
He smacked the back of her hand.
Her face immediately dropped. “You hit me.”
“You deserved it.” He smiled bigger.
“To be hit?”
“To be taught.”
“With hitting?” She leaned away from him.
“With correction. Did it hurt?”
“My feelings, yes.”
“Did I hurt your feelings when I smacked your ass in bed?”
She turned dark red instantly. “Well, no, but . . .”
“But what?”
“Okay, yes, it did hurt my feelings because right after that is when you ran away.” She frowned. “Sometimes I don’t understand you.”
“Ask me when you don’t understand, and I’ll explain.”
She crossed her arms over her chest and stood up, moving off the breakfast stool.
“You know what, it’s fine. I made a mistake. I can see that now. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to be rude. I just thought that . . .” She started to walk away, and he grabbed her by the arm and pulled her back for round three.
She was in his arms, pressed up against his chest.
“In my world, when something’s not right, it’s corrected. I didn’t want to hurt you, just teach you. Can you understand that?”

Sleeves mini teaser chapter 3

Kel and Casey conversation from Chapter 3:
“No. I want you. I want youto help me. You said you would. Your friends said you would. I just need a woman—can you understand that? I just need to touch you,” he said, his tone desperate as he searched his foggy brain for the right words to make it all okay. “But you can’t touch me back. I don’t want to break you. I like you.”
A soft breath whispered across the line. “I like you, too, but this isn’t good. You sound sick—like you need some help.”
“Just you. Only you can help me. Can I come see you?”
“What—now? It’s . . .” there was shuffling around “. . . three in the morning.”

Knots mini teaser chapter 2

Mark and Jeanie conversation from Chapter 2:
She set her food down. “Thanks for letting me stay here. I’ll be out of your hair tomorrow. I’ll find a hotel so you don’t have to worry about—”
“No, you fucking won’t,” he said. “You’re staying here. Period.”
She held her breath then exhaled slowly. “I can’t take advantage like that. You’re very generous, but I don’t—”
“Jean, I swear to God, don’t even say it. I want you here.”
“Look,” she started, “I know you were his best man three years ago, and you made some promise to him to take care of me if anything was ever to happen to him, but you can’t possibly believe he actually meant that.”
“Yes, I do, but even if I hadn’t made that promise, I’d still be here to take care of you.”
Her shoulders melted about three inches and then pulled back. Her tits were jutting out. It was obvious she was trying to look intimidating.
Made him smile. Fucking cuter than should be possible and making him hard as hell.
“I don’t need you or anyone else to take care of me, all right? I’m fine.”
He ran his finger over her ring. “The fact you keep saying ‘fine’ repeatedly, states otherwise.”

Sleeves mini teaser for chapter 2

“They saw your come drenched on my hands, on that chair and on the floor. I swear you could fill a half-gallon empty milk container. When was the last time you got off anyhow?”
“Last night,” he rasped, his voice hoarse for some reason as he lied. Why was she making him uptight? It wasn’t like this bitch knew anything about him and his life.
She was staring at him, watching him move around.
It made his gut threaten to replace his lungs, it was that knotted and unsettled in his body.
“Holy God, you came last night, and that much shit came out of you?” She shook her head. “If I hadn’t watched you do it, I would’ve thought it was a trick. Like you’d used the lube to make it look like more, or maybe even the water from the bottle on that table nearby.”
He coughed to clear his throat, but it didn’t help. “Speaking of which—be a good little bitch and go fetch me a drink. I’m thirsty.”
“You forgot to grope my tits first, you dickhead.” She grinned. “I’m not here to be your bitch. I’m here to make sure you’re okay.”
*Oh, he's so much fun...*

visuals for Knots

Oh, okay, one or two or ten pics of David Gandy won't kill me. He's exactly what I envision Mark looking like, right down to the piercing dark blue eyes, that amazing smirk and prominent nose. He's all man. There's nothing boyish about him at all.

Here's Mark from Knots...






This bottom picture is almost exactly what I picture him looking like in the very first chapter when Jeanie sees him and he walks into her life.

Now, here's Jeanie. This french model is Megan Farquhar. I love her feline eyes. Jeanie's are a powder blue though, so that's different, but other than that, very similar with the long dark hair, facial structure I envision, but maybe a little more meat on her bones. But then Megan's a model. She's not allowed to have that booty I shake down a town with that I've had my entire life... *sigh*





Can you see why he went after her and why she couldn't resist? Who could resist that man? *double sigh*

Visuals for Sleeves

Yes, I know... I still have a month before this story is published, but I wanted to share how I sort of envision both Kel and Casey. I wasn't going to bother posting Mark from Knots because he was David Gandy to me, and that man's face is all over the internet, especially on a ton of Goodreads reviews for eroticas, so it's almost trite to use his image at this point. But I will post who I envision as Jeanie.

At any rate, this is how I see Kel from Sleeves, except a little broader in the chest, bigger build and more of a square jawline.

This is Kel... (this model's name is Ryan Bowden in case you've never seen him before)





This is Casey, and no, I never watched Gilmore Girls. I wasn't a fan, but this lady looks similar to Casey... (this actress is Alexis Bledel)



Hopefully when I share clips and teasers, you can envision a little more what these people look like. I always love visuals...
