Excerpt:



Tension lines Peter’s neck and shoulders. His jaw shifts from side to side, like the conversation he just had pissed him off. His eyes flick up from the floor and meet mine. “My brother’s an asshole.”

I smile at him. “So is mine.”

Peter watches me for a moment and sighs. He runs his hands through his hair and stretches. The anger that was there washes away, but it’s not totally gone. “I need to tell you something.” The way he says it makes my stomach dip. The tone, and the way he looks away from me, sends a shiver down my spine.

Peter takes my hands and pulls me over to the couch. At first we’re seated next to each other and he’s holding my hand, but it’s like he can’t sit still. Peter is up and on his feet a few moments later, pacing. Every few seconds he tries to tell me something, but can’t choose the right words.

Peter makes an aggravated sound in the back of his throat. When he turns and looks at me, I know there’s something wrong. His dark brows lift and bunch together as his lips part. He stares at me for a moment, and then manages, “I didn’t want to bring this up, not now, but you need to know something about me.” He swallows hard and looks away.

I push off the couch and walk over to him. “You can tell me anything.” When I touch his arm, Peter jumps. It makes me nervous. Why is he acting this way? I grin at him. “You’re not the one who put the squirrel outside the bathroom window, are you?”

Peter snorts a surprised laugh and looks over at me. He takes me in his arms and pulls me to his chest. It feels so good, so safe.

He kisses the top of my head and says, “Do you know anything about the Ferro family?”

NAked with H.M. Ward

Holy Canoli! We are NAked with H.M. Ward! Commence squeeing now!!!

Who are you and what should we know about you in 50 words or less?
A crazy chick from NY who lives in the sticks in TX. I love to write and switched to writing full time in Jan of this year.

Which one: chocolate or bacon?
Chocolate.

What is the name of your book and what is it about in 50 words or less?
Book? I have 34 titles, I mean 36. I lost count. There are 2 in progress. Okay 3. You see my problem? The latest is the 2nd volume of DAMAGED. This NA novel intertwines with my NA serials - THE ARRANGEMENT. There was a doozy at the end of vol 7 where it becomes obvious that stories will intertwine.

Tell us your main character's name and 3 adjectives that describe him/her.

Peter (Ferro) Granz: Witty, hot, and gets what he wants.

Please share with us an excerpt of 150-200 words from DAMAGED 2.
I step in front of him and look up at him from under my lashes. “Okay, you caught me. I like you. I want you. I can’t keep my hands off of you. But tell me this, beautiful man; why should I bother controlling myself when I can tell that you want me just as much?” Slowly, I step closer to him. Our bodies are a breath apart as I look up into his eyes.

Smiling, he manages to say, “You shouldn’t.” He watches me, waiting to see what I’ll do. I feel my heart pounding. His eyes drift to my lips and back to my eyes. Every inch of my body flickers to life. I want to feel his hands on me. I want his lips on my mouth. From the look in his eye, I know he wants it too.

I lean in closer, teasing him. I feel his breath on my lips. His scent fills my head and I breath him in. “Are you always this irresistible?”

“Are you always this coy? Do you just flirt, leaving your lips way too close to a man that desperately wants to kiss you?”


Tah dah!!!!

By the by, I'm 100% indie. ROCK ON INDIE PEOPLE!!!
