About the book:
Three modern day roommates
and recent college grads take a time machine back to the Wild West. The time
machine breaks, stranding them in the past where they are forced to join a
brothel to survive.
With the help of future
technology, they're able to trick their customers into thinking they're getting
what they pay for, without actually having to do the deed.
But the scam involves getting
much more up close and personal with smelly, 19th century hicks than germaphobe
and prude, Anastasia, is comfortable with.
One customer seems sweeter,
more attractive, and better groomed than the rest. Could she actually fall for
a cowboy from the dirty, disgusting past?
EXCERPT
Etta hooted. “Art of lovemaking!” she said, slapping her leg. “Well that’s the funniest thing I ever heard. Ain’t no art going on here. Ain’t no love either. This is a business I’m keeping, and if you want a room in my brothel, you’ll damn site bring in the money to pay for it.”Beth was angry. Angry. And when Beth was angry she’d say something she shouldn’t, or worse.Anastasia put a restraining hand on Beth’s arm and Beth glared at her.“We’ll make money,” said Anastasia. “We’ll make you plenty of money, but we’re tired and dirty. We’d like a bath and a bed so we can be ready for tonight.”“Well, we’ll see, give you a trial, like,” said the woman. “Go on in. I won’t show you to your rooms. I don’t wear these dirty things into the house, and I’ve got a good sight more work to do here, but hopefully you can find your own way without waking the whole house. The girls are still asleep, and there are some gentleman callers hanging around, who I’m sure don’t want to be disturbed.”They went into the whorehouse. It was nice, very nice. On their first trip into the town, Anastasia had taken it for a wealthy man’s house, a house big enough for a big family, with sumptuous room to spare.But as she now knew, this was a different kind of house, and as she would soon learn, this was a different kind of family.
AUTHOR Bio and Links:
S.E. Burr wrote Time
Traveling Hookers over the course of a weekend at a Tom Bird writing retreat in
Santa Fe, NM. It is based on a dream she had a few weeks prior to the retreat,
but she did no advanced planning of the plot. She was very surprised to
discover that the story was a romance, as she did not often read romances, let
alone write them. She quite enjoyed the experience and intends to write more
romances in the future, but cautions that what she intends to write and what
she actually writes can be two very different things.
She is the author of the
young adult novel, Goblin Fruit, inspired by the poem “Goblin Market” by Christina
Rossetti. The sequel, Goblin Girl, is
coming soon. It was inspired by her desire to find out more of the story.
A nearly lifelong resident of
rural New Mexico, S.E. Burr loves the desert, her family, and her cat.

ReplyDeleteThank you for the giveaway! Looking forward to reading it!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad! I hope you like it!
DeleteHookers going back in time, sounds interesting. :-)
ReplyDeleteI thought so...I had a dream about it and thought it was really interesting, and after I told people about the dream multiple times and they got a kick out of it, I thought I should turn it into a book.
