Balls Dropping And Other Spectacles

 

New Year's Eve is upon us... so we're spending the night sneaking into the governor's bash. Sure, we've been kicked out of there before for getting all exhibitionist, but why not have another go at it? Just because the governor's mother-in-law is prudish doesn't mean we can't have a little fun...

 

Incidentally, our New Year's resolution? More sex. In more out of the ordinary locations. In front of an audience.

 

We Admit It: We Have Been Very Naughty This Year

Christmas Eve is upon us... and we'll be busy unwrapping our presents. By which we mean lying by the fire and stripping out of our clothing and having our way with each other. And doing a lot of things under the mistletoe that would shock Sister Mary Margaret.

Or get her wondering what on Earth she was thinking with that whole vow of chastity thing.

Merry Christmas! And be sure to have your attorney with you when you appeal Santa's appalling lack of presents. 

Snippet Sunday: Unsexy Thoughts

Another snippet from our work Same Time Tomorrow, featuring our Chloe and Gabriel sharing a bed (before things get too steamy) and trying to behave themselves...

He could feel her snuggle closer to him in the bed at the sound of his words, felt her breath at his neck, the form of her body close to his own. It had an erotic energy all of its own. Think about something not sexy at all, lad, or you won’t be able to stop yourself, he told himself with a smile.

“I definitely don’t want you to be there alone.” Her voice was full of promise, and it was enough to drive him over the edge. Let’s see here, what would do the job? Thinking about Mrs. Wallace, the sadist music  teacher back in grade three? That’ll do the trick, getting me out of the mood. She could have taught cruelty lessons to Hitler. She probably did. Chloe’s voice reached him. “Hey, Gabriel?”

“Sorry. Trying to behave myself, thinking about things that aren’t sexy.”

Snippet Sunday: A Rotten Day

Another Snippet Sunday post today, with a short passage from our work Same Time Tomorrow. This features our leading lady Chloe early in the story, having a rough day that just keeps getting rougher....

By the time Chloe left the office that evening, the rain had stopped, but her troubles hadn't. She had no sooner left the building and was standing at the curb than a passing truck hit a large puddle and sent a torrent of muddy water her way.

"Damn!" she shouted as the light changed, allowing her to finally cross the street to the bus stop... just as the bus pulled away.

She decided to walk. As she reached Central Park, she saw a couple in a horse-drawn carriage, locked in an embrace. He's probably just proposed. In a horse-drawn carriage in Central Park, Chloe thought with disdain. Now he'll take her to dinner at an elegant restaurant. Then they'll have an inexcusably expensive wedding with five hundred of their closest friends, a honeymoon in some exotic location, and end up divorced.

Snippet Sunday: A Drunken Lout

We have another Snippet Sunday blog today from Same Time Tomorrow, this one from early in the manuscript with Gabriel at a bar in Norway, where he happens upon a man he knows and dislikes...

            “Allow me,” Gabriel told him before he could move. He walked down the length of the bar, hearing the voice, an American.

“Come on now, darling, what’s your hurry?” The voice sounded slurred. Yes, of course. He’s been drinking.

“Do you mind, lad?” Gabriel said in his most condescending tone, his Irish accent clear. “After all, the lady has no idea where a dog like you has been.” The man turned, releasing his hold on the waitress. She stepped away, a look of gratitude in her eyes for Gabriel’s intervention. “Where are your manners, Jeremy?”

Jeremy stared at Gabriel for a moment, and then seemed to recognize him. “Miller? What are you doing here?” His tone was sneering, contemptuous.

Without A Word: What A Way To Go

Snippet Sunday: Provocative Images

Snippet Sunday is a group at Facebook where members post ten lines from one of their works. We thought we'd post this piece from Same Time Tomorrow,  with one of our protagonists, Gabriel, getting a surprise on his mobile from Chloe, the woman he's involved with, while the two of them are separated by an ocean...

The first image featured Chloe nude, reclining in bed, looking directly at the camera, her eyes lustful, her body inviting. He gasped. Oh my indeed… The next images featured her fondling herself, caressing her breasts, as if he was there, as if he was the one doing that. He stepped out of the church, briefly remembering where he was, coming out onto the front steps. He clicked on the next images, seeing her touching herself, sliding two fingers inside… Gabriel ached to be there, to be in her bed… to have her here… to make love with her.

He reluctantly closed the attachments, would look forward to seeing them on his laptop later. Cold water until then, lad, he told himself with a smirk. What a woman, he thought. And how lucky I am to have her…
