Hump Day Hook

Welcome to this weeks Hump Day Hook.  This is from my WIP Mystical Wonders - The Right Call.   Shari kept her eyes on the envelope.   Madison took her time removing the contents, which were wrapped in red tissue paper.   Slowly she removed the paper, slid out a piece of a puzzle and an index card.   Holding up the piece she turned it from front to back before placing it down on the table.   Next she unfolded the index card.   Her eyes popped open and the yellow card fell from between her fingers.    CLICK HERE TO RETURN TO HUMP DAY HOOK BLOG   CLICK HERE TO VISIT TO MY WEBSITE

Tuesday Tales – Wine

--> Welcome to this weeks Tuesday Tales to the word prompt Wine.  For my blog, I choose to keep the scene PG.                                  Pia took a sip of her wine before setting her long black stem glass down on the frosted glass coasters on her cocktail table.   Lorenzo stood in front of her, extending his hand toward her. “Come here.” Pia took his hand and slipped into his arms as they danced to the soft love song playing on the stereo.   Since Lorenzo had become a part of her life, she started to see and appreciate things she never did before.   Dancing, well this was one of her passions.   Growing up, she had always wanted to go to dance school, but with her father in and out of jobs, her parents couldn’t afford to send her.   Pia took a few dance classes while she attended college, but quickly lost interest.   Dancing wasn’t fun unless you had a steady dance partner. But she had the passion and loved being swept across the dance floor. Pia

Black Friday Blog Hop

Welcome to the Black Friday Blog Hop. I am not a Black Friday Shopper.  You ask why?  Because I was on the other side of the door. I worked at Toys R Us for five years.  And I worked every Black Friday.  I would spend Thanksgiving with my family, and then rush home to try to get a few hours sleep before going to work at 3:30 AM in the morning. I'd get to work and fight with the crowds to get through the exit door into the store.  By 4:00 AM the customers are crushed against the front door, some their noses against the glass.  Electronics and the hottest dolls are on the top of everyone's list.  Despite the complete mayhem, I must admit it was one of favorite days of the year to work, along with Christmas Eve. In my eyes, the main theme of all the Black Friday mayhem is love, getting the best deals to make our family, friends and love ones happy. Now you want to talk about love, I am giving away a copy your choice Roses or The Boardwalk . Roses   The sudden

Hump Day Hook

Welcome to this week's Hump Day Hook.  This excerpt is from my WIP Mystical Wonders - Book 3 - The Right Call. --> “It was.   I was the kid that every team wanted. Not to sound vain, but my quick success, put me on a fast road that I wasn’t ready for at all.”   Scott lifted his knife and cut his meat.   “I went from a half a season in the minor leagues right to the Penguins, where I’ve been their number one pitcher for the past twenty-six years.   But now, my future is in the hands of the upper brass, or shall I say me.”   Scott took a bite of his steak.   He lifted up his knife.   “Awesome.   Go ahead eat.” CLICK HERE TO RETURN TO HUMP DAY HOOK BLOG CLICK HERE TO VISIT MY WEBSITE

Tuesday Tales – Thanksgiving Picture Prompt

--> This week, I decided to put my story on hold to reflect on the things I am thankful for.  Staten Island is in a state of devastation and luckily I made it through the storm with minor damage.  My thoughts and prayers are with all the victims on the East Coast.  I'd also like to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving full of love, hope and health.                                Everyone sat around the beautifully decorated table, dressed with their family heirloom dishes and knick-knacks to celebrate Thanksgiving.   This year, however, would be much different.   I have a lot to be thankful for, you know the little things we all take for granted. 1.      My Home: When I get up in the morning, I wake up to a warm house and the scent of dinner cooked from the night before. I have a chill, so I walk over to the thermostat, crank it up, and then complain when it gets too hot in the house.   A roof over my head…totally grateful. 2.      My Family:

Hump Day Hook

Welcome to this week's Hump Day Hook.  This is a scene from my WIP. --> Sophia looked up at the sky.   The stars were shining, something she rarely seen or paid attention to.   For some reason, tonight had opened her eyes to the endless possibilities, she had missed out on through the years. Allentown was a whole different world, so unlike the fast pace of the city.    --> “We’ll have to do that one night.” “I don’t know when the next time I’ll be in Allentown.” Sophia leaned into him as they walked.   “I have my business to run.” “That’s understandable.   But maybe you can come up with an excuse for an extended weekend.”   He kissed the top of her head and gathered her snuggly in his arms.   “This is not a one weekend fling.   I really like you.” RETURN TO HUMP DAY HOOK  VISIT MY WEBSITE

Tuesday Tales - Sexy

Welcome to this weeks edition of Tuesday Tales.  This week the word prompt is Sexy.                                           Pia loved seeing the joy on Lorenzo’s face as fans stopped by the table asking for an autograph or just wanting to shake his hand.   His blue eyes sparkled and not for a single second did he not have a smile on his face. He reached across the table.   “I hope you’re not upset with me.” “Why would I be upset?”   Pia asked.   “This is part of who you are.   I don’t mind at all. “That’s so good to hear.”   Holding up his coffee mug, he motioned with his hand to Lena.   “Can you bring us two more?” “Sure,” she said racing around the café, which had become crowded. “Now back to us.”   Taking her hands in his, he leaned across the table and kissed her lips.   “I love this place.   What I can’t understand is how you can sit here seeing and smelling all these pastries and cookies without the urge to eat more.” “You should be here when they

Hump Day Hook

  This is from my WIP Mystical Wonders - The Right Call  (Book 3) Cassie paced back and forth to the window.   When the hell was Sophia coming home?   She wanted to get a better look at Scott’s car.   It hadn’t dawned on her until he pulled up the roof and the blackened windows that he was the scumbag that almost killed them when they were coming out the food store.   After almost causing a fatal accident, he never stopped nor slowed down.   Now this animal was out their with her cousin.
