Here's the blurb for Adventures in Online Dating: 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!
And here's an excerpt, continuing from where we left off:
She
took his hand and stood, marveling at the warmth radiating from his palm. He shuffled
their bodies until he was directly behind her. His hands held both of hers now,
palm-up. Other patrons in the shop were looking at the curious display, but she
didn’t give a damn. All she cared about was the heat of his body pressing
against hers, and how safe she felt in his arms.
“You
forgot to tell me one of the other perks of juggling,” she murmured.
“What’s
that?”
His
hot breath stirred the hairs on the back of her neck and nearly broke her train
of thought. “It’s sexy as hell.”

Well, it's currently Friday night as I'm typing this, aka: the night before my 32nd birthday extravaganza. In honour of the occasion, we're having our own version of the superbowl. I call it...super-bowling! And the only place you can do that is in a bowling alley. Or on a lawn. Lawn bowling is great fun if you've never tried it. There will also be tons of family time, hugging, eating, caking, and karaokeing. The ingredients for a perfect day, wouldn't you say? Wishing you all a fantastic week ahead! :)
Happy Birthday Evelyn!!!!! I hope you won the superbowl (very funny by the way) You have definitely made juggling sexy in this snippet.
