Weekend Writing Warriors #99!

Happy holidays, my friends! Hope you've been enjoying the festivities with your loved ones! I have some terribly exciting news to share. You ready for it? Okay, here goes...Online Mating releases this week from SilkWords! It's a reader-vote story that's a steamed up version of Adventures in Online Dating, only this time there are only two bachelors to choose between. I also have a blog tour that kicks off tomorrow, so lots to look forward to! :) 

 For now, we'll continue with Adventures! Here's the blurb: After too many failed relationships, too many shots of tequila, and too many not-so-gentle nudges from her best friend, Sydney Montrose joins an online dating site in hopes of finding THE ONE. During her adventures, she crosses paths with a professional gamer who lives with his parents, a sweet and sarcastic parking enforcement officer, a flirty barista, a mystery man, a touchy-feely former felon, and a clown. Which one will she choose? Well, that's all entirely up to you! :-D

 And here's an excerpt, continuing from where we left off:
“Did I miss a spot?” he asked.
            His question snapped her out of her trance. “No, I’m just...you just...you look really good.”
            That pesky, heart-fluttering smile of his grew exponentially. “I’m so relieved you’re still here. I have to admit, part of me worried you’d run for your life. I never meant to scare you. Quite the opposite, actually,” he laughed.
            “Well, mission accomplished.”

Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to visit the other Weekend Writing Warriors!

 Christmas has come and gone again, but it was one of the best ones yet! And with a release this week, it still feels like Christmas! Here's a gift for all of you--new cover prettiness! Wishing you all a fantastic week! :)

    I'm always so impressed by how natural your dialog is, Evelyn. I think these two could have good chemistry. Neat idea for a story, btw.

    Happy New Year. Hope 2015 brings you happiness, love, and much success. :-)

    First off, congratulations!

    Great 8! There's a noticeable unspoken tension (of sorts) between them. I want to learn more of their connection and relationship. Well done.
