The Big Puck Sale! (Happy Thanksgiving 🦃)

💜💜💜💜💜💜

Hello !

I wish you and everyone a Happy Thanksgiving this week!

Even if you're not in the U.S and this isn't your official holiday, it's always good to take the time to be grateful for what we have, and especially the people in our lives.

What am I grateful for? You! 💜

As a small token of appreciation, I'm offering you The Big Puck on sale from now until Thursday, Thanksgiving day.

In this story, Spencer and Lainey are the Grumpy-Sunshine duo--one of my favorite couples. And if being a hockey hunk isn't enough, Spencer is also a single dad! So if you haven't read their story in The Big Puck, now is a great time.

In the meantime, although I don't have an excerpt, I want to share a snippet from my work-in-progress with you today.

What's the difference between an excerpt and a snippet, you ask? Good question.

Answer: In this case, an excerpt is a honed, though not quite finished version of the final prose. Though it may be polished further, it's been reviewed.

On the other hand, a snippet is more raw, untested and truly a look at the process.

Hope you enjoy the raw glimpse of The One Timer, the next Whalers hockey rom-com.❤😘

Part 2 of our vacation, as promised. We went to Hershey, PA 2 weeks ago now.➜➜➜➜➜

Naturally this place was on my bucket list as a certified (or is it certifiable?) chocoholic.

I was worse than a kid in this candy store!

I was a full grown chocolate crazed adult woman!

Imagine me running around grabbing chocolate of all kinds from the shelves and the displays--including the gigantic 5lb biggest chocolate bar in the world.

In the meantime, I saw the Ear-Nose-Throat doc for my (missing) voice and he diagnosed the problem. More importantly, he came up with a plan to cure me!

And after only 3 days, I've improved a lot. Less coughing, less talking--better quality voice when I do talk.

And that's before I see the voice therapist to help me talk with less strain on my vocal chords--I kid you not.

Who knew there was such a thing as a voice therapist?

My diet, you ask? Last week it was Down the toilet. But this week I'm on the rebound. To recap, I'd lost 8 lbs since September 25th when I started (on the heels of getting sick) and now I'm at down 6lbs. Only a slight gain after the vacation is a WIN!

How? On the advice of the Ear/Nose/Throat doc, I'm not eating for 3 hours before bedtime. This isn't a secret and I'm sure most of you know to not eat before bedtime, but for me, a diehard snacker, it's not an easy ask. So we'll see...

Next week will be important. I don't want to make any predictions because THANKSGIVING DINNER looms, but I'm hopeful I can at least maintain.

Are any of you going into Thanksgiving🦃 week with weight loss aspirations? Anyone?

SNIPPET from THE ONE TIMER

Chase

She shakes her head. "No, I mean you and me. Day-to-day. I have a passion for nursing and you hate all things medical. You have a passion for hockey and I... don't."

"You don't like hockey?" WTF? I can't keep the shock from my voice because it reverberates through my whole body like she gut punched me, the way she said the words, like an indictment of my character.

"I like hockey," she says too quickly. "But it's a sport and I can only get so excited about it. What excites me is your excitement about it. I love that it makes you happy, that it gives you purpose and how hard you work to be your best."

"But?"

Her brows furrow and her eyes question me like she’s puzzled.

"Hockey isn’t an admirable passion like yours." I snort a disillusioned laugh. "I suddenly understand what it feels like to be less than."

"Chase, I don't--"

I cut her off. "Never mind. Don't come to the game. You're right. Whatever you're doing is more important. By default."

🔥🔥Today's Sizzling Snippet 🔥🔥

from Playing for Keeps - an enemies to lovers football romance

Tate

“Wow, a secret private hangout,” she says when we get to the top of the stairs to the dimly lit empty room filled with low tables and club chairs. I take a seat and so does she, but not in the chair next to me. She sits in my lap and bam. It’s like alarms whooping and red lights flashing in my brain alerting my cock to full-on action.

“You don’t mind if I sit with you, do you, Fontanna?”

“Not if you don’t mind sitting on my hard cock.” No sense in pulling punches when the obvious is so obvious. She laughs.

“I like you.” She wraps her arms around my neck. Holy shit. 

This is what I took her up here for, isn’t it? To test her, to taste her, to see how explosive the sparks are. 

To get her out of my system.

“I think you like me,” she says, her red nail drawing a line down my jaw and across my lips. I don’t bother confirming or denying. Instead I slip my hand up her back and thread my fingers through her soft curls and move her face toward mine until our lips are a breath apart.

With my pulse thundering crazily, insanely, considering I’m a full-grown man, well past the adolescent stage where anticipating a kiss should have me in such a state, I touch my mouth to hers. A soft brush, a caress of skin, moist and hot, and our lips meet with that perfect amount of pressure to make me sizzle, to make my cock jump and beg.

When I feel the vibration run through her, her tense, unshed passion communicates to me as she presses her lips to mine, parts them to allow a heady taste of her essence. And then all bets are off. 

The answer is loud and clear how real this physical attraction is between us, the lust alive and rearing, making my cock strain, my pants tight. Our tongues mingle, our mouths ravenous, her hands on me, touching everywhere she can. I take my fill of her, drink in her beauty, her vibrancy, her sensuality, and let it all run through me and feed my raging blood.

Her ragged breathing mingles with mine and...

Two Pucks: Portsmouth Whalers series

a fake relationship billionaire accidental pregnancy hockey rom-com

Sabien

What does a billionaire hockey player and a clueless dog walker have in common?

Besides my dog, we both enjoyed spending one hot night burning up the sheets.

And we both need something desperately enough to strike a deal.

Possibly the stupidest deal ever imagined according to my lawyer.

But once it's done, we're in bed together--literally--for the duration of the season.

The one rule is that we agree to part ways cleanly at the end of the contract. My lawyer insists.

No contact allowed.

No matter what...

Tricky Puck - a fake fiancee hockey rom-com

I'd never heard of a real life matchmaker before, but grandma insists on introducing me to one and makes sure it's really real when she tells me I'm her matchmaker's new client...

Normally, I'd do anything for grandma, but this is a big ask.

I'm not ready to settle down. Not even close. I'm only twenty-six and a rising star in the NHL - otherwise known as a chick-magnet.

After all the hard work and focus I've put in to get to this point, I've barely begun to have fun. No way am I going along with the matchmaking plan.

Sure.

Fast forward when my attitude changes real fast after grandma informs me her clock is ticking and her time's almost up.

And her dying wish is to see me settled down with a nice young woman.

Shit.

She goes on about babies, but my mind is spinning with the knowledge that I have no choice. I need to go along with this matchmaking deal for grandma.

Unless I can come up with a way to give her the comfort she wants, the illusion that I'm settled down--without actually settling down...
