Today is Sneak Peak Sunday. I get to share a snippet AND make an announcement. Every Sunday, various authors share SIX paragraphs of their work, either something already published or a project they're working on to entice you to take a closer look at their writing. At the bottom of my six, you'll find the link to the listing of other authors who are participating. You'll find a nice variety of genres and writing styles.

So, of course, it's only appropriate I share 6 paragraphs from this novella. Becca and Dan Wolford, known to everyone simply as Wolf, have argued. They live next door to each other in townhouses in Clearwater, Florida.
Becca fingered for her door key hidden in the hanging fern on her
porch and wiped off the dirt before sticking it in her lock. Going over to
Wolf’s had been a huge mistake. Huge. She’d gone to the trouble of getting made
up and squeezed into her best dress for five minutes of birthday party and ten
minutes of lecture. Damn, annoying man.
“Becca! Becca, wait up.” Hurried footfalls sounded behind her and
a hand coiled around her arm. Wolf turned her to face him. “I was offensive
back there. I’m sorry.” Just why did you
have to make him so handsome, God? Even in the dark, his voice is deep and
sensual. Couldn’t you have taken some of his abundant sexiness and used it to make
him more pleasant? ’Cause this guy is
one rude piece of work.
She jerked her hand from his grasp. “First, you can stop putting
your hands on me. Earlier today you said you were sorry for flirting with me,
as if I wasn’t the type of woman you found attractive.”
“That’s not true. I find you very attractive. What man wouldn’t?”
She chose to ignore his forced compliment. After all, she’d gotten
all dressed up for him and he never once told her how nice she looked. Nice?
Hell, she looked hot, the big jerk. “Now you’re apologizing for being impolite
and insulting. Tell me, do you ever do anything
you don’t regret later?”
He backed her against the door, his dark eyes glittering in the
soft light spilling onto the porch from her desk lamp near the window. Her
tummy did a little twitchy thing when his thighs bumped hers. His fingers
forked in her hair, angling her head so their gazes locked. “Believe me, you
annoying woman, what I’m about to do next I don’t plan on regretting.”
This novella is the kick-off for several novels in the Firemen's Wild Heat Series. Many of the fire and marine rescue men you'll meet in Santa Wore Leathers, you'll meet again in the full-length books, featuring their romances with a touch of suspense. First up will be Cassie and Quinn's story in To Catch a Flame.

Oh, yeah! And now I want to read about the kiss. Great sneak peek, Vonnie.
Thanks, Dawn. These two both know what they want. He wants her...and she wants him to let her alone. What fun they were to write.
That book cover is "hot!"
Thanks, Angela. I loved that they included Einstein. He was such an important part of the story.
Great job.
Thank you, Beth.
