I wanted to say "Thank You" to everyone who commented on my blog the past few weeks. I've enjoyed reading all of your blurbs.
Set up for the excerpt:
Abby turned into the Jersey Devil the night before. The hot sheriff pays the girls a visit. Abby is attracted to him but is nervous because she has no idea what she did as the Jersey Devil.
Abby’s lips
parted. A strong urge to touch his golden blond curls waving from under his
sheriff’s hat tugged at her hands.
Pepper raised
her eyebrows in an I’m-enjoying-the-view sort-of way.
"Morning,
ladies. Do you have a minute?" His deep husky voice dripped over Abby, warm
and sweet like honey—before killer bees
flew in for attack. He tipped his hat and smiled enough to show a glimpse of
healthy, white teeth.
"Well I’ll
be darned. You’re the new sheriff?" Pepper asked.
Release date is April 20th
Book Blurb for TEMPTING THE LIGHT
Bad luck
magnet Abby Fitzpatrick gets fired, catches her boyfriend cheating with a mime,
and is cursed by an evil genie who pops out of a tampon
box. She’s bound and determined to remove the spell, and as fate would have it,
the hottest guy she’s ever met is out to kill her.
River
Stone, a Cryptid hunter for Legends and Myths Police Squad (L.A.M.P.S.), poses as sheriff for Abby’s hometown of
Haber Cove, New Jersey. He’s out to find and capture a man-eating gnome and bag
the legendary Jersey Devil monster. Little does he realize, the woman who
catches his heart is the same creature that he was sent to destroy.
Tempting
the Light is the first completed novel in the L.A.M.P.S. series that features
hunky secret agents who find true love while hunting and slaying dangerous
Cryptids.
Uh, oh. Can it ever be good when the new sheriff in town stops by to visit you personally? I can't wait until this book hits the marketplace. Great snippet, Bonnie!
ReplyDeletePaula,
DeleteThe sheriff is her love interest :)
Thanks so much for visiting my blog
I love that description of his voice! Sweet like honey before the killer bees attack. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHi Monica.
DeleteThanks so much.
Thanks for visiting my blog
Lovely descriptive piece with a touch of sly humour, Bonnie. He sounds... Dangerously delicious!
ReplyDeleteHi Kim.
DeleteAbby was such a fun character. She over reacts and has such a twisted view on things.
Thanks for commenting and visiting.
Love the bee analogy. So sorry about the blog crash. Yikes!
ReplyDeleteCara,
ReplyDeleteThanks so much. Yeah, not only did I screw up my blog, but windows 10 decided to download and I lost all my files. I think the fae had something to do with it.
Thanks for visiting.
Mmm, love a man with a husky voice and blond curls!
ReplyDeleteHi Christina,
DeleteI pictured Paul Walker when I was writing this :)
Thanks for stopping by
A minute, an hour, your future children...sigh...oh wait, why does the Sheriff need a word? This doesn't bode well. Nice snippet! So sorry about your blog, though--and your lost files! Hopefully something magnificent will rise from the ashes. :)
ReplyDeleteHi J Rose,
DeleteI know, right?
I was able to recover most of my files and repair my blog. All is good.
Thanks so much for visiting.
"Well I'll be darned." lol--she sounds so innocent.
ReplyDeleteAnd the honey--before killer bees fly in for the attack--nice touch!
Pepper has a southern accent that she picked up as a souvenir from a week in Texas. She is far from innocent:)
DeleteThanks for stopping by.
I loved the line about the killer bees, very clever! Enjoying the excerpts :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Veronica.
DeleteI was about to type almost the exact same thing that Veronia wrote, but now I'll just say "Ditto."
ReplyDeleteLOL. Thanks for stopping by.
DeleteGreat snippet! Also, the Jersey Devil? Excellent monster choice. ;)
ReplyDeleteAmy,
DeleteThanks so much. Writing about the Jersey Devil was so much fun.
At least with a sheriff, you know he has his own set of handcuffs! ;-)
