Today I’m the in-house Guest Chef on PetitFoursAndHotTamales with a snippet from a brand new 4-star review for A SUITABLE WIFE by Angie Just Read… (reviewer) @ TRR

And tomorrow starts the Summer Reads Blog Hop that runs July 17th through the 23rd with fun prizes and a larger Grand Prize! More about in tomorrow’s post.

Then on Thursday, another fun hop right here. It’s the Melissa Schroeder 10th Anniversary Blog Hop celebrating the 10th Anniversary of Mel’s Harmless series. More prizes! That one runs July 18th through the 27th.

I’ll remind you again, but on the 23rd, PHANTOMS & FANTASIES will be the Book a Day giveaway on The Romance Studio. I’ll post the link that day.

Wow, that’s a lot going on and a bunch of fun! I’m looking forward to partying with you.

#SnippetSunday: His Small Town Princess

Posted on July 13, 2014 by Carol Burnside / Annie Rayburn

I’m participating in Snippet Sunday and sharing a few lines from my current WIP (work in progress), which also happens to be the 3rd novel in my Sweetwater Springs series. These books are contemporary, sexy, humorous, emotional and full of Southern small town charm.

So, without further ado, here are J.T. and Cass in the greenhouse one morning:

“Please stop saying sex.” He looked away from her, emphasizing the request with a frustrated hand flourish.

It appeared she’d flustered him. Cass smiled, gaining confidence. “Avoiding the word won’t keep either of us from imagining the possibilities of where and when and whether clothes are involved.”

Oh, how she’d imagined. All through her shower and the drive here, she could hardly think of anything else.

J.T.’s gaze targeted her chest, then swung away.

“Yes. Today I’m wearing a bra. Panties, too. Would you like to know what kind?”

“No.” His cheeks puffed on an exhale, and his gaze raked over her again. “Yes.”

A Small Town Princess will be released later this year. However, the first two books in the series are available in ebook and print. Click HERE for info, excerpts, reviews and buy links.

Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed my snippet! Click the Sunday Snippet link above to enjoy more snippets by other authors.
