So here's another six from my recent release Fragrance of Violets. Abbey has joined Jack for a weekend in Paris but he knows she's still uncertain about their relationship. While she's in the bedroom getting changed, he convinces himself he'll have to take things slowly with her. But he's in for a surprise.
“So how do I look?”
Her voice broke into his thoughts and he looked round, then did a double-take at her.
She stood in the doorway, her hand reaching up the doorframe as she stood in the most provocative, seductive pose that exceeded even his wildest fantasy.
She’d let her hair loose so that it cascaded past her shoulders in a delightfully unruly mass. Her red chiffon jacket only partly covered her beautiful breasts and, fastened with just one clasp underneath them, offered a tantalising glimpse of the g-string below.
“Wow!” was all he could say.
'Fragrance of Violets' is available from Whiskey Creek Press and Amazon. If you'd like to find out more about the Lake District, where most of this contemporary romance of forgiveness and renewed love is set, do look back at my A-Z posts for this first week of April.

Yes, those are the perfect 6 sentences from your delightful novel. I hope you hit the top of the hit parade with it. Now I'm waiting for you to write the Sagas, How about that charming village you feature on your FB page as a starting point? You could call your book Hawkshead (that in itself is an evocative word).
