Cocktales, Book One
Stephanie Harper is perfectly happy co-owning Books and Brew, where she slings drinks and entertains her friends with cutting wit and a cynical take on love. She’s convinced she has no time for anything deeper than sex; she has a business to run, after all. And her thrice-married mother has proven happy ever after doesn’t exist.
Jarod Nolan begs to differ. Chance has him running into Steph—and giving her a ticket—one morning, but it’s fate that finds him in her place of business that same evening. A sizzling one-night stand ensues, and although Stephanie escapes before he wakes the next morning, Jarod is already sure she’s worth the chase.
Steph’s more than willing to party naked with the hot cop, but she’s adamant they’re driven by lust, not love. Jarod is prepared to prove otherwise, even if it means giving up one of the things he and Stephanie do best…
What’s that old saying? Abstinence makes the heart grow fonder?
Can't wait to read this book so I thought I'd share and give away one copy.

If abstinence doesn't make the heart fonder it definitely makes things hotter. LOL Though I think it can make the heart fonder too. :-)

ReplyDeleteFirst time here but with plans to return. Some of my friends have suggested Mari and now know why she has just been added to my list of favorite authors. Can't wait to read this book.
ReplyDeleteAs for abstinence,well total sucks,just haven't found a BOB that is capable of canoolding after.
So yes it makes not only the heart grow fonder but the whole body to boot.

I definitely think absence makes the heart grow stronger since you realize what you're missing. You realize the value of a person once they're not with you on a regular basis.

Not sure if this is too late-you said Sunday, then said the 24th which is Saturday, but I'll pop in anyway. Abstinence is a way of life for some, and in many cases it is the only option. I know when I was in a relationship, abstinence added to the anticipation and the excitement of everything.
