MediaKit_BookCover_SealedWithAKissWhen friends become lovers, is there a chance friendship can turn into something more?

Cyber security consultant, Sloane Cooper is dumped by her wanna-be politician boyfriend, his parting shot—not only are you the worst girlfriend ever, but you’re a lousy kisser, too! So she turns to game developer Miles Preston for “kissing lessons”. But Miles doesn’t want to be Sloane’s rebound guy. How does he convince his best friend steamy kisses are not enough? Traditional wooing won’t work. Can a few well chosen gaming obstacles do the trick instead?

Enjoy an excerpt:

“You’re not wearing the dress I bought you.”

The up and coming political star with aspirations for the U. S. Senate, was irritated.

Sloane wasn’t surprised. She glanced down at the black leggings, emerald-green flowing top inset with slashes of lace, and her favorite Converse tennis shoes before opening the door wide as an invitation to enter.

She grabbed her cell from the side table where she’d left it. Five o’clock? Crap!

Scrambling to find an excuse that wouldn’t irritate him further, the only thing she could conjure up was the truth. “I’m sorry. Picked up this sweet gig today. Identifying spyware. Worms. Intruders. The whole nine yards. I lost track of time.”

She backed toward her bedroom and the dress that so wasn’t her style.

Her consulting business, Cooper Cyber Securities, was her life. Well, with the exception of Todd, the guy she’d been dating for two years. And she loved it. The challenge. Excitement of the chase. Sussing out code gone wrong. Locking out hackers.

When her apology had no affect—Todd’s brows pulled into an intimidating canyon—Sloane stopped retreating. Hands plunked on hips, she took a stand. She didn’t need anyone telling her what to wear. Except just this once she should probably make an exception. If she was interested in talking him out of his foul mood.

She wasn’t given a chance.

“My god, Sloane! When are you going to grow up and start living in the real world?”

Real world? What was that supposed to mean? She had a real-world job. She swallowed sudden anger before she said something that wouldn’t help the situation. “I said I was sorry. It won’t take long to get ready. Ten minutes. Fifteen tops.”

Before she could spin around to perform this miracle—really she’d need at the very least thirty minutes—Todd’s next words stopped her cold.

“This isn’t going to work for me.”

  1. Thanks for hosting!

    • Yes, thanks for hosting me 🙂 I’m looking forward to the visit. I work during the day, but will check in and lunch time and at the end of the day.

  2. Do you ever suffer from writer’s block and, if so, how do you overcome it?

    • Hi Peggy, thanks for stopping by. No, I don’t suffer from writer’s block, partly because if I get stuck on a plot point, I have several writing sisters I can turn to for plot-storming. A bigger problem for me is The Day Job and eeking out time to write. I’m pretty persistent, and I think organized. At the end of the day, if I haven’t made my goal, I cut myself a break and hit it harder the next day 🙂

  3. Christopher Mason says

    Are there other books planned?

    • Hi Christopher 🙂 Yes. All Sellwood Novellas. Heart Of Glass by Darla Luke, Crystal Bleu by Ginger Kent, and then, my…Where’s The Love–I think, lol–and also another Christmas Sellwood short.

  4. Betul E. says

    What are the easiest and hardest scenes to write?

    • Hi Betul. Hmmm. The easiest for me is always the opening scene. I can see it clearly in my mind. Once it’s written, I may do some tweaking, but for the most part it doesn’t change much. For me that scene sets the tone of the story and is the reader’s–and my–peak into the leading character’s soul, so to speak. The hardest are the scenes just before the mid-point of the story when the characters realized there’s no going back to where they were or who they were at the beginning of the story. Something big has to happen to given them that revelation, and it has to be real, right? Good question 🙂

  5. Becky Richardson says

    Do you prefer paper or digital books?

    • Hi Becky 🙂 I love both, believe it or not, partly because I have a collection of out of print books. I mostly read on my Fire (I have 2) and my phone, but really like print for middle-grade reading, which I’m exploring as research for an idea I have for a children’s series.

  6. I really loved this excerpt.
