Take My Breath Away Six Sentence Sunday #SixSunday


As always, for those who might not know here's what 6 Sentence Sunday is all about-

Pick six (6) sentences from anything you like (it can be from a Work in Progress (WiP), something you recently sold, something you hope to sell or even something already under contract and available for purchase – and don’t worry, Six Sentence Sunday is for published AND unpublished writers). Then post them on your blog on Sunday. That’s all there is to it!

You can add yours link to their official list by signing up before midnight the Saturday beforehand, but for any who are familiar with it, you probably already know they will be shutting down soon and there will be no more Six Sentence Sundays. The last SSS is January 27, 2013.

I probably will continue to share on Sundays and title it Snippit Sundays and leave the "snippit" length at my discretion.

As I missed the first Sunday this month, I figured I'd skip ahead from where I left off in Love By Design to when Derrek is about to pick up Jasmine for their "date" to her sister Juniper's movie premiere at Grauman's and meets Jasmine's downstairs neighbor, the sweet little grandmotherly Ester, aka, Essie.

“Oh, yes, that’s this evening. Jasmine came home earlier with a dress bag and a box with high heels in it. She showed me.” Ester pressed her hand to her chest, her face beaming with pride like a mother or grandmother. “So beautiful, she’ll take your breath away.”
“She takes my breath away every time I see her, Ester.”

Welcome Sixers! Can you believe this year is nearing it's end? It seems only yesterday we were just getting started. 

As always, for those who might not know here's what 6 Sentence Sunday is all about-

Pick six (6) sentences from anything you like (it can be from a Work in Progress (WiP), something you recently sold, something you hope to sell or even something already under contract and available for purchase – and don’t worry, Six Sentence Sunday is for published AND unpublished writers). Then post them on your blog on Sunday. That’s all there is to it!

You can add yours link to their official list by signing up before midnight the Saturday beforehand, but for any who are familiar with it, you probably already know they will be shutting down soon and there will be no more Six Sentence Sundays. That's not to say I won't still continue to share a little something on Sundays and I'm thinking seriously of just changing it up a little and calling it Sexy Snippit Sundays, or something like that.

Heading back into my currently unpublished contemporary romance, Love by Design which I'm going to get to work on editing and polishing as soon as life around here gets back to our normal routine after New Year, when the kids get back to school and I have a quiet house in which to work. ;) ~



Jasmine’s hand reached her lips. They still tingled from the passion of Derrek’s kisses. They felt swollen and tormented…and abandoned.

Her heartbeat pounded in her ears and her breath jagged on the exhale. Panic filled her.

What had she been thinking to let it go this far?

Her eyes flew open and she steadied herself on her own two feet after the support of Derrek’s embrace. She heard a low curse escape his lips.

“I’ll be right back,” he said by way of apology, as he took the stairs two at a time. “Don’t. Go. Anywhere.”

Welcome Sixers!

Well, today marks the last day of my Christmas with Catherine & Dawson Giveaway and I will announce the winner soon through the Rafflecopter widget. Tomorrow I have my "The Next Big Thing" Blog hop post in which I will be revealing---you guessed it!!! The COVER for Love By Design!!!! I've had it tucked away for a couple of months, but thought it was a good time to share it before this year ends so you all can

SQUEE!!!!

with me over just how GORGEOUS it is and what an awesome job Tracy Stewart at All About the Cover did! Definitely stop by tomorrow to see my pretty sparkly! It's so lovely. (and I'm becoming a tragic exclamation point abuser...someone stop me.)

He moaned as well, though his hands never moved. He held her close, his fingers caressing the small of her back and her neck, while his hips rubbed against hers. The hard length of him surprised her. It seemed all systems were a go.

A ringing in her ears startled her.

Was this what happened during the best kiss of your life?

Taryn Raye's #sixsunday- A Shocking Revelation

(click above image to read MORE Six Sentence Sunday excerpts)
(Check out more by looking up hashtag #sixsunday on Twitter)

Welcome Sixers! As this upcoming week gets underway, I have two birthdays to plan for, a night out to look at Christmas lights, as well a family get-together on my husband's side of the family next weekend, so it's going to be a busy, busy week. I've got one who'll be turning 14, my stepson, and then our daughter will be 10, a big ol' decade old. Where has the time gone? I mean, really? Seems just like the other day I brought her home, this tiny helpless thing bundled in blankets...now she tackles me for a hug and nearly knocks the breath out of me and I love her for it.

Heading back into my currently unpublished contemporary romance, Love by Design, we'll still pick up somewhat were we left off and it's a bit of a smoldering hot one that seems to be heating up some more...



Heat twisted through her abdomen and staked itself at the juncture between her thighs. What a shocking revelation.

Derrek’s lips hovered over hers, and then trailed a path down her neck until he found his way to her earlobe. He nipped and nibbled at her ear, his mouth and tongue backtracking to her lips once again. A moan escaped from deep in her throat as his lips captured hers. Another bolt of desire shot downward, setting off a throb that radiated to every fine nerve ending in her body.
