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!
And here's an excerpt, continuing from where we left off:
In an alternate universe, one where
incredible men like Garrett didn’t exist, she’d ask this guy for his name and
maybe even his work schedule so she could coincidentally show up during his
next shift, but she wasn’t one to tempt fate...or Aphrodite. “You too,” she
said.
She
turned back in time to see Garrett slide his phone into his pocket again and
shoot her a thumbs up. He closed the distance that separated them in three easy
strides. “Ready to go?” he asked, holding out his arm.
In response, she linked her arm with his and fell into step with him. They could walk to The
Empire, as it was only a couple blocks down the street. Garrett tucked her nice
and close beside him when they hit the sidewalk, like he was already showing the
world that she was his, and she kinda loved it. Their hips rubbed together with
every forward movement. He kept smiling down at her, turning her insides into
knots--naughty-thought knots--and one naughty thought ruled them all.
Thanks so much for stopping by and be sure to visit the other Weekend Writing Warriors!
Naughty-thought knots. *giggles* Ahem, sorry. I just wanted to let all of you know, in case I haven't made it clear yet, that this story I've been sharing every week is something I submitted about a year ago, and my publisher, SilkWords, ended up asking for a steamed up version featuring Charlie the clown and Mystery Man. It's called Online Mating, and it's available now to read if you clicky this linky! The fourth and final installment has been written, just waiting for edits and then the story will be complete! Adventures in Online Dating will most likely never be officially published, but then again, who knows? I love how much you're all enjoying it, and I hope you continue to tune in each week. :) Now that I've yapped your ears off, have a fabulous day!

Aw, sweet snippet. I love that last line - we all know that wonderful feeling!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Gemma! Isn't that the best feeling in the world? :D
DeleteHips together in harmony. YUM! I may be old but of how I love the feeling.
ReplyDeleteHee! We're never too old to appreciate that feeling, are we? Thanks, Charmaine! :)
DeleteI'm just a bit concerned how bonded she feels to this new guy already! But anything can happen in romance, right? Great snippet!
ReplyDeleteLol, just wait. There's probably another man around the corner. ;) Thanks, Veronica!
DeleteHmm...naughty thoughts seem to be in the air today.:-) Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteOh, really? Now, I'm intrigued. lol. Thanks, Paula! :D
DeleteThis sentence has great cadence: "turning her insides into knots--naughty-thought knots--and one naughty thought ruled them all."
