Snippet #1 from He Has Charm

a Rom-Com Hockey Romance

Hello my romance reading friends--

What I'm working on now, He Has Charm, starts with a fun premise, a sex video scandal for a fun-loving, carefree hockey hunk, Maddox, the madman, Knight, who loves women who now has to deal with the fallout. That fallout mainly being his handler, Harper St. John, a hands-off spunky beauty who takes her job seriously as his jailer.

All kinds of fun trouble ensues. 💜

At SQ's House

This week I spent time with my mother in Connecticut while my brother was away--visiting with my son and nephew in Las Vegas. Needless to say, I wish I was there with him!

With both of our sons no longer living nearby (son #2 is in Washington, D.C.) (and we're in New Hampshire), I miss that they no longer stop by now and then and that we can't get together for an occasional dinner and game on TV

Big Sigh. I'm sure many of you can relate one way or another.

Here are my boys at dinner with my mother not long ago➜➜

Speaking of games...

The Celtics are driving me crazy in the NBA semi-finals!

He Has Charm - A Hockey RomCom

Snippet #1

“Nice to see you dressed for the trip,” Harper says before I slide into the back of the limo next to her.

“Air travel is casual these days, Harper. Welcome back from the sixties.” She rolls her eyes and I stifle a laugh. I need to behave. But as soon as the driver gets pulls from the curb, the cool private space scented in something exotic sucks me into an intimate closet-like feeling and she’s hard to resist. Her scent, her pent up passion, that smart mouth, her vivid green eyes…

“Stop staring at me,” she says. I laugh and then stop myself and look out the window. “You know it’s colder in Boston, right?” she prods.

“No problem. I’m a warm-blooded guy.” She tosses a pointed look at my gym shorts and I wonder if she’s checking out my cock while she’s at it.

“Like what you see?”

“What? Don’t flatter yourself.” She turns away and I’m sure I saw a rush of pink heat her cheeks. Fuck, this is going to be more fun than I thought. Forget boring. I can be happy playing the stay-at-home-with-the-pretty-lady-Maddox.

“I’m sorry,” I say, no repentance in my voice whatsoever. “My mistake. I thought you were checking out my crotch. I’ll behave.”

She snorts.

“Behave? Were you planning to get a lobotomy?” she says. “Because I don’t see you changing much and you are—”

“A natural born charmer, so I’m told.” She laughs and gives me an assessing look.

“Some ladies might find you charming. Most of us think you’re—”

“Most of us?” I raise my brows.

“Yes, those of us who are interested in a real relationship and not a quick… never mind.”

“That’s it? That’s all you’re interested in? A real relationship?”

“Never mind.”

“It’s important for us to come to an understanding, don’t you think? Since you’re going to be my handler?”

“Not handler, your…” She goes on, but I get stuck staring at her and I’m not listening because those emerald eyes hypnotize me.

“Knight, are you even listening to me?” I nod, wearing my feelings on my face, flat out admiration. She rolls her eyes. “Don’t pretend like you’ve never seen a good looking woman in a suit before.”

“It’s not the suit.” I want to say more, but I have no idea what, so I shut my mouth for a change and leave it at a genuine as all fuck smile. Because she doesn’t even get how fucking sexy she is. When the hell does that ever happen in my world? Never. Fucking never.

Every puck bunny, hell, every woman whether they know a puck from a fuck, that I’ve been with in the past two years here in NOLA, were all about the sexiness and only the sexiness. I’m not complaining, but my handler is the kind of woman I haven’t been around for a while. Purposefully.
