Do you love the annual Mensa definitions of the year as much as I do?
Here’s some I particularly enjoy. If everybody would vote
for their favorite I’d love that too. Always interesting to know what appeals
to others.
1. Cashtration. The act of buying a house, which renders the
subject financially impotent for an indefinite period of time.
2. Intaxication. Eupohoria at getting a tax refund, until
you realize it was your money to start out with.
3. Foreploy. Any misrepresentation about yourself for the
purpose of getting laid.
4. Giraffiti. Vandalism spray painted very, very high.
5. Decafalon.
The grueling event of getting
through the day consuming only things that are good for you.
If you can read these without even smiling you’re in bad
shape!
I’m also pleased my newest erotica novella will be released yet
this month. Unexpected Christmas started out to be a sensual, but somehow
slipped into the erotica category.
"Caro lay half on top of him, blissfully asleep as she snuggled against the only warmth in the
cold room.
He looked down at the golden hair flowing against his chest
and silently cursed the most damnable situation he’d ever been in. Finally he
eased himself gently from under her and sat on the edge of the bed. He’d get no
more sleep tonight. He certainly couldn’t stay there with his rigid cock poking
into her soft stomach. He’d enter her before she even knew what he was about.
He draped his greatcoat more closely around her and rose.
Time to go check the fires.
Both those in this goddamn inn and in his regrettable body.
He’d not counted on his unpredictable Caro. He felt her arms
wrap around him, as she laid her cheek against his shoulder.
“Sebastian, why would you want to get up so early? Come back
and lie beside me again. I’m so much warmer and feel safer when you’re with me.”
Sheer desperation drove Sebastian. If he didn’t do something
he’d turn on her like a ravaging wolf and tear her innocence to shreds.
“Damn it. Caro, are you so innocent you don’t know what you
do to me? You’re far from safe with me. If I stay in bed another minute I’ll
turn on you, ravage you and take your innocence. No one will marry you then,
unless you manage to convince the fool you’re still a virgin. I won’t do that
to you, although God know there’s nothing in this world I’d rather do.”
There was a short silence, although she did take her warm
arms from around him.
“I don’t want you to leave me. Is there anything I can do to
make you feel better so you’ll stay?”
Sebastian was not sure her words came from an angel or a
devil.

Funny. :) #5 speaks to me (as I sit here with my coffee!) Best luck on the upcoming release Jean.
ReplyDeleteThose definitions are great, Jean - thanks for giving me my first smile of the day. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the quotes, and yes, I smiled. I like them all, but number 1 spoke to me. Congratulations on your new release!
ReplyDelete#5 speaks to me, but I laughed at all of them.
ReplyDeleteGreat cover and I loved the excerpt. Never would I get out of bed with an offer like that and the room being cold. lol
Thanks, Rose and Tina. Love all the quotes, but think no. five is my favorite....
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rose and Tina. Love all the quotes, but think no. five is my favorite....
ReplyDeleteSome thing screwed up here. Was told to refresh the page and I duplicated. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteSandy and Cara, thanks for your comments. Had a lot of fun writing this book. I've done several regencies before, but never an erotic regency.
ReplyDeleteI like #1... It's why I learned to only buy a house based on one income so that we didn't need to eat only peanut butter!
ReplyDeleteLove the cover and excerpt! All the best!!
Thanks, Melissa. The very best to you too...
ReplyDeleteCall me crazy, but I like #4. I think it's because of the cute factor with the long-necked zoo animals.
ReplyDeleteCongrats Jean on your hot new Christmas release. It sounds awesome!
Loved all of them, but belly-laughed over #1! Great post Jean:)
