Sample Sunday - DREAM KISSES

Excerpt of an embarrassing moment:

Mims watched the interaction between Sage and the waitress who was trying her damndest to get his attention. Maybe she could use the little scene in her next book. The poor girl wasn't getting anywhere with him. He looked utterly bored. Actually, he looked gorgeous and bored.

Mims rubbed behind her neck, wishing she'd left right after the photo shoot. Sissy was speaking to her. "I'm sorry, Sissy, what did you say."

"I said, 'Earth to Mims'." She laughed. "I was telling Chuckie and Sage what a great writer you've become. How you've improved with each book. Now you're one of our top authors. Although…" she sent a sly look around the table and leaned in, "…you'd probably be number one if you'd use your talent to write some erotic scenes instead of dancing around them. Of course, you do a pretty good job of dancing. The readers love it."

Mims felt color flood her face and rubbed the back of her neck again, a habit she'd carried from childhood whenever she felt flustered or nervous. She didn't know how to reply. "I…I…"

Chuckie added his two cents. "Don't worry about it Mims, practice makes perfect." He winked at her.

Mims wanted to crawl under the table.

The flirty waitress saved the day when she brought their orders. Serving Sage his coffee last, she said seductively, "Can I get you anything else?"

Sissy had obviously had enough because she said, "Honey, he's taken by the lady next to him. Show your wares elsewhere."

The young woman glanced from Sage to Mims and her eyes widened, as if to say, No way! Mims rubbed her neck harder and shot an apologetic glance at Sage.

Dream Kisses as well as Honey Kisses are so engaging. I get so involved with the characters. I have even geared up. All the touching scenes are so wonderful. I am interested till it ends and want more. Can't wait for Baby Kisses
OMG I love and can feel these sweet romance stories and the Shaplings I really miss Fawn.
