Book Review - Jasinda Wilder - Falling Into Us

Image
Jasinda Wilder Book Review ***** Five Snowflakes Falling Into Us by Jasinda Wilder – Parallel Novel to Falling Into You Just as in Falling Into You , I usually do not prefer first person narratives, but, Ms. Wilder’s reflective writing style did not disappoint me in this particular book. She did a very good job of delving into some history of the main characters not mentioned extensively in the "sister" installment. She wrote from the viewpoint of best friends, Jason and Becca, to the hero, Kyle, and and heroine, Nell, giving an honest thoughtful perspective from their involved points of view. Ms. Wilder fully develops characters from a pivotal moment in their lives dating and falling in love. However, in this book, she describes intimacy between the young lovers’ adult unions with sexy descriptors and leaves little to the imagination. Unlike in the first book where the love scenes were less detailed until the characters were older. An important character, ...

Tuesday Tales - "Building" a Story

Image
Ahoy Fellow Fathomers! This week's Tuesday Tales prompt is the word "building". Please see how I use "building" in my new WIP erotic romance,  Sexy Bea Spelling . Our heroine, Bea, uses a week to lose her inhibitions, but, did she lose her heart as well? Bea stretched out under the covers. The ceiling fan whirled rapidly with white noise comforting and monotonous.  Images of Tessa’s naked body filled her mind, and she brought back memories of their night together in vivid detail. Bea shifted her recollection to Andrew and the next few nights of wanton lust they shared after Tessa left the resort. An ache returned between her thighs signaling her body wasn’t ready to give him up as quickly as her logical mind wanted. “It could never work.” She rolled onto her side and clutched her pillow, fat tears finally rolling into the goose down.  Bea allowed herself a healthy cry before rising from the refuge of her bed. After quickly brewing a latte`, she settled ont...

Tuesday Tales and Smooth....make it smooth

Image
Ahoy Fellow Fathomers! This week's Tuesday Tales prompt is the word "smooth". Please see how I use "smooth" in my new WIP erotic romance,  Sexy Bea Spelling . Our heroine, Bea, uses a week to lose her inhibitions, but, did she lose her heart as well? Craig, Bea, Andrew, and John prepared for their meeting with Andrew Goode at the OSHA office. John would introduce the outline of the findings, then excuse himself. With sweaty palms, Bea kept smoothing down her black pinstripe pantsuit and paced a short jaunt behind her desk. Bea had not spoken to Andrew since their heated telephone conversation several days prior. Tammy had told Bea to dress to kill and wear red lipstick. “Show this guy who’s boss. Bring him to his knees in your sexy power suit. I promise you he won’t know what to do.” Craig signaled to Bea from the aisle way between desks. He motioned for her to meet him toward John’s office. Bea hesitated and Craig pointed anxiously at his watch. Bea g...

Tuesday Tales and a little Menage!

Image
Ahoy Fellow Fathomers! This week's Tuesday Tales prompt is a picture. I use this beautiful serene setting to kickoff my new WIP erotic romance, Sexy Bea Spelling . Our heroine, Bea, uses a week to lose her inhibitions, but, did she lose her heart as well? Take a peek at  Sexy Bea Spelling- “Never in a million years would I have thought a ménage a` trois would be on my bucket list.” Bea’s cheeks reddened and she twisted the scarf between her hands. “It’s nothing to be ashamed of. We all need something wild we can fantasize about into our old age.” Andrew smiled, gently grasping her hands in his, momentarily stopping her nervous fingers. “It seemed so delicious and sinful all at the same time. Since this resort encourages the release of inhibitions, I felt free.” “You are free, Bea, you are an adult woman over the age of twenty-one who has needs you’ve denied for far too long. Just because you are satiated doesn’t mean you’ll return to reality and start hitting hook-u...

Blue Ink - The Skin Stalker COVER REVEAL!

Image
Hello Fellow Fathomers! I'm very excited to introduce to you the cover for my first paranormal/thriller release- Blue Ink The Skin Stalker. Joelle unknowingly unlocked a portal to a demon- The Skin Stalker- who wants to vanquish her humanity and create a new demon hybrid with her using her former lover, Colin. Although she tried to forget him, Colin continued to break her heart from a distance, making her vulnerable. The Skin Stalker began brutally murdering Colin's "girlfriends", setting him up as the prime suspect-but does Joelle really care if Colin rotted away in jail? Using a softball equipment bag and public dumping grounds, The Skin Stalker morbidly disposed of his victims, celebrating the notoriety, and his ability to stump the police.  A unique blue "tattoo" behind Joelle's ear carries the key to her connection to the paranormal realm.   Can an average woman actually conquer a demon? Set around the backdrop of the beautiful Rocky Mo...

Tuesday Tales and Twister Fate -

Image
Ahoy Fellow Fathomers! This week's Tuesday Tales word prompt is "shoe".  Before I introduce my contribution using "shoe", I want to address the recent horrible weather events. Following the devastation from the recent tornadoes, my heart goes out to everyone affected and I loudly applaud all the rescue workers, volunteers, and everyone donating their time and money to put people's lives back together. My childhood friends lost their home, thankfully, they were not inside when this tornado hit their residence. These storms are no joke and must be taken seriously. Sadly, they lost one of their three dogs and practically everything they own. If you've donated time or money, thank you so very much on their behalf, and so many others in their same circumstance. Actual scene from Mustang, Oklahoma This week I return to another installment in a  brand new  sweet romantic read,  Twister Fate.      Twister Fate Organized chaos...

Welcome Layna Pimentel and a GIVEAWAY!

Welcome to The Locker Layna Pimentel and her new release~ Hardened Desire I let her take over the blog for a day, the cover alone was payment enough. :) Enjoy!!     Layna Pimentel What is about these fascinating sculptures that holds my intrigue? While I’m sure I’ll never know that answer, the one thing I can say for certain, I don’t think I’ll ever stop collecting them any time soon. Whether it’s a garden ornament or an ornate carving in a picture, in my eyes, they’re beautiful no matter how grotesque they appear. Even at the end of the Disney movie Beauty and the Beast, I was disappointed how they were magically transformed into cherubs. Cherubs on a castle! How outlandish is that? I’ve never seen anything more horrifying. Perhaps that’s just me being over dramatic, but I love the dark and mysterious. Do you have a favorite garden ornament, knick knack, sculpture, or painting? I’d love to hear from you. For one lucky person today, I’ll be giving away a su...
