Sweet yet Sexy?
I think
by far I am not sexy. Yet, as a romance writer, I have to convey this in my
work. So what makes sexy?
For me? Yeah,
yeah, yeah, a lean and fit man, who carries the ability to conquer all in his 'tude and stance. But the
twinkle in his eye…
Wowza!
So from
my romantic comedy, "Store Wars," I give you 7 paragraphs with sexy
hero, Fletcher:

"Twenty-five?"
"Sold."
As I reached for his outstretched hand, my pant leg caught on something. I felt
myself tumbling face-first to meet concrete.
Fletcher caught
me before the grand finale. "Whoa, sweetheart. You okay?" Gently, he
lifted me to my feet. We stood chest to chest; so close, I could smell lemon,
see the golden ring pulsing around his irises. An exchange of synergy zigzagged
between us.
As I stared
into his eyes, my body barely swayed. All sense of time and place evaporated.
My mouth parted. When my eyes closed, I perceived him shifting closer. His grip
tightened on my upper arms. When he softly said, "Janie," his breath
teased my ear, sending butterfly-like shivers over my body.
The urge to
have him hold me, kiss me, love me seized.
His mouth found mine. My nose grazed his cheek as I deepened the kiss. His lips
dragged and took, sending me out of my mind. He tasted like the Hershey's
chocolate kisses Betty from Bath Bubbly had passed around.
When a car honk
reached my ear, my Texas sensibility returned. I stepped away, my finger
lightly rubbing my lips. Ohmygolly, I
just kissed Fletcher Babcock like tomorrow would never come.
His mouth
quirked. The same quirk found his eyes. "Nice, sweetheart."

Enjoyed the excerpt, Vicki. IMO there's nothing sexier than a man with a sense of humor.
Hi, Lyndi! I just can't not write funny. And that twinkle in the eye gets me every time. Thanks for stopping.
