Excerpt Wednesday – Hearts On Fire

 Brianna watched as he took another deep breath then straightened his shoulders.

"But life goes on and I knew Sabrina would want me to go on living instead of spending my life mourning her. She was a sweet, gentle giving woman who always saw the best in everyone she met. It was so unfair that someone as loving as she was should be so tragically taken. I was angry for so long at the injustice of her death that even my friends were beginning to worry about me so one day, I just made the decision to leave."

"I can’t imagine your pain," Bri said feebly wishing she could think of something—anything to take his haunting hurt away.

"After awhile I began to focus on the good times we shared and that helped. Now that dull empty feeling inside is replaced with hope." He turned to her his mood lifting.

She saw the muscles in his face relax and a bright twinkling come back into his eyes. "Maybe tonight is a sign."

Excerpt Wednesday – Hearts On Fire

 She shivered as she picked up a pair of silk stockings and dreamily rubbed them against her cheek, and then smiled. She craved pure raw, uncontrollable sex with no holds barred. She wanted to be taken to the edge and back again. She’d never dared to share these innermost fantasies with anyone, so they had stayed inside clawing to be set free.

Now was the time to let down the barriers and be the woman she was meant to be, the woman who would give her partner as much or even more in return.

Harvey had been a good husband and provider. He gave her and their sons, Jeremy and Scott, a life of ease and luxury that not many of her poor background had or ever would have. And Annabel had loved him. Despite their sexual problems, Harvey had been her rock. He had been her best friend since the moment they’d met and she still felt that way, right up until the moment of his death. She missed his friendship and camaraderie.

Excerpt Wednesday – Hearts On Fire

 "It’s about time that you took some time off," Annabel said. "You work much too hard," she gently scolded. "I worry about you, Em. Why do you do it? You certainly don't need the money."

Emily threw her head back and laughed. "Believe me, there have been times I’ve asked myself the same question." She grew serious. "What would I do if I didn’t write? That’s all I’ve ever done or ever wanted to do. I don’t know how I’d fill all those empty hours."

"Well, I for one can think of many more pleasurable pursuits," Josephine interjected. "Such as physical pursuits."

Annabel chuckled. "You’re wicked, Jo. I swear you have a one track mind."

"It keeps me happy and satisfied." She pointed a slender finger in Emily’s direction. "It might do you good to have an old-fashioned roll in the hay."

Excerpt Wednesday – Hearts On Fire

Her hand trembled in his. Was she dreaming? Was she really with him all alone in the middle of nowhere? She was certain that she'd wake up any moment. He put a tender hand on her shoulder. She smiled. No, this was real and she was here with him. Anything was possible tonight. "I'd love to stay."

"Good." He turned his head until he was staring into her eyes then bent his head tilting it down to hers.

Her breath momentarily caught in her throat as his lips touched hers sweetly at first, then with a hungry need. She responded to his need with her own. She put her arms around his neck, pressing into his body. She never wanted to let go. His firm lips clung to hers as his tongue found its way into her mouth. A soft moan escaped from her as his hands slowly caressed her back, then gently traveled to her chest where he expertly fondled her heaving breasts with his hands.

His mouth moved from hers and planted soft kisses on her neck and throat. "I want you so badly," he hoarsely whispered.

Sometimes, though more frequently lately, in the dark of the night she yearned for a man who could give the same pleasure that her inhuman vibrator did—a man who knew how to use his tongue and penis to set her on fire.

Annabel chuckled. "You're wicked, Jo. I swear you have a one track mind."

"It keeps me happy and satisfied." She pointed a slender finger in Emily's direction. "It might do you good to have an old-fashioned roll in the hay."

Annabel almost choked on her sandwich. Emily's face reddened.

"Maybe you should practice what you write, or are you holding out on us?" she continued.

Emily slowly shook her head back and forth. "Maybe my satisfaction comes from writing from my past experiences," she answered with a laugh. "You've heard the
expression that a writer should write what she knows."

Josephine cocked an eye. "I read your last book. There are some steamy love scenes in there. More than usual."

"I hope you enjoyed the book. There was also a story in there," she teased.
