Welcome to the 48th
week of My Sexy Saturday.
The rules are to post 7 paragraphs or 7 sentences or 7 words ONLY. The choice is yours. It can be from a WIP or something you already have published.
Today I'm offering up 7 sentences from my holiday novella, Muffins & Mistletoe.
First the blurb:
Welcome to Starlight Hills! Mountain views, small town
charm, and one little bake shop, where romance is always on the menu.
Christmas is the best time of year to be in love in
Starlight Hills. Cold nights perfect for snuggling, plenty of mistletoe to be
caught kissing under, and an abundance of gingerbread muffins for sharing under
the stars. But when Corinne Mackenzie turns down a proposal from the man she
loves at the Thanksgiving table, it could be the worst time of year instead.
Convinced the only way to fix the biggest mistake of her life is to enlist the
help of the town's resident matchmaker, she's got a plan to make this the best
Christmas ever.

Here's my 7 sentences from a scene in the bakeshop, where it seems Jimmy has ended up under the mistletoe :)
Jimmy realized he was under the mistletoe less than a second before her lips were on his. Hot coffee in one hand and a bag of muffins in the other, he couldn’t put his arms around her even if he wanted to. And he wanted to.
Corinne’s fingers pressed into his shoulders and her soft lips crushed against his. While Johnny Mathis sang about chestnuts roasting on an open fire, flames of a different kind flooded through every inch of his body. Her warm fingertips touched his neck and along his jaw, then her lips parted and he was powerless to do anything but accept the invitation her mouth offered. He inhaled her intoxicating scent, something floral, a little spicy—or maybe that was just the cinnamon drifting in from the kitchen behind him.
