Tracking Tor

  My Sexy Saturday Week #53

  Happy Saturday everyone! It's time for another round of sexy tidbits from the authors at the My Sexy Saturday blog hop. We each share either 7 words, 7 sentences or 7 paragraphs from a published or in-progress work.

   River, the third book in my erotic contemporary romance trilogy, Tracking Tor, is finally finished--and today is its release day!

  In this scene, Julie feels secure enough to tell Tor she's in love with him.

When she came back into the present, Julie was aware, first, of the heat of their bodies, almost fused with sweat. Her ear was pressed to Tor's chest and she could feel his heartbeat, almost hear its steady, even drumming. The strength of its regular beat made her feel secure, safe, as if he were a large, protective animal. The fact she’d spent the last few days suffering from a terrible pain caused by this same person was all forgotten now. He wouldn’t hurt her any more. He loved her. And she loved him. With a start she realized she hadn’t yet told him.
  Does he know? How could he not? 
  She pulled back to look at his face. His eyes were closed, and he wore a slight smile as he rested. “I love you too. You know that, don’t you?”
  His eyes shot open and he smiled. “Yeah. I think I figured that out a few days ago.”
  “When?”
  “In Dahab. In the hot tub.”
  Julie thought back to that night, the night he’d told her about his failed relationship back in Denmark, and his floundering business. “How did you know?”
  He shrugged. “I guess it was just something about the way you looked at me. The way you responded to me. It was pretty intense, if I remember correctly.” He moved his hand down along her side, over her hip and thigh. “Everything we did was charged, somehow. I don’t know how else to explain it.”
  She leaned up and kissed him with all the tenderness she could express. “Yes. It was sort of charged with something, wasn’t it? But I think I fell in love with you long before that.”
  “Really?”
  “Yeah. Like the moment I first set eyes on you.” She laughed and rolled on top of his big body, pressing her nose on his. “I thought I was hallucinating when I saw you walk up to your bike, throw your leg over it and drive off into the desert. You were the best thing I’d ever seen, and you disappeared right in front of my eyes.”

The Lion Man

My Sexy Saturday Week #50

  Happy Saturday everyone! It's time for another round of sexy tidbits from the authors at the My Sexy Saturday blog hop. We each share either 7 words, 7 sentences or 7 paragraphs from a published or in-progress work.

    My latest WIP, the third book in my erotic contemporary romance trilogy, Tracking Tor, is almost finished. But this week I'm offering a snippet from the first book in the series--Mirage.

  In this scene, Julie has just met Tor among the beautiful ruins of Palmyra, Syria. She can hardly wait to get to know him better.

Here's my 7 sentence excerpt from the first book in the tracking Tor Trilogy: Mirage.
 In the courtyard of Palmyra's museum, Julie spotted a weathered bas-relief carving of a lion propped against the trunk of a palm tree. Full-maned and regal, he seemed the very symbol of power. She began to snap some photos from different angles, thinking about Tor, the man she would be meeting at dinner. He had leonine qualities, certainly. Her body began to thrum as she thought about what it had felt like to sit behind him on the bike, the big motor hurling them both through space, its vibrations ricocheting through her body.
  Maybe he'll want to do more than take me riding tonight? 

Tracking Tor, Book Three is titled River, and will be released by eXtasy Books in August.

Still Tracking Tor

My Sexy Saturday Week #49

Happy Saturday everyone! It's time for another round of sexy tidbits from the authors at the My Sexy Saturday blog hop. We each share either 7 words, 7 sentences or 7 paragraphs from a published or in-progress work.

    This week I'm offering a peek at my latest WIP, the third book in my erotic contemporary romance trilogy, Tracking Tor. Julie and Tor meet while touring the Middle East and enjoy a one-night stand. But Julie can't let him go so easily, and takes on the challenge of tracking him down through the deserts and oases of Syria and Jordan. 

In this scene, the tables have turned, and it is Tor who tracks Julie up the Nile as far as Aswan. 

Tracking Tor, Book Three is titled River, and will be released by eXtasy Books in August. 

Here's my 7 sentence excerpt:

  Julie laughed. “ I was afraid you’d think I was some sort of stalker.” She rubbed her breasts against the hair on Tor's chest and kissed him again. Her tongue slid out of his mouth and along his jawline, down his salty neck, muscled shoulder, to trace the outline of the multi-colored tattoo on his bicep.

  She closed her eyes and smiled. “I didn’t really want to stalk you. I wanted you to come to me.”

  “And now look what’s happened,” he said, embracing her. "You chased me until I caught you."
