Compromising positons?

compromising-positons

So, I really didn’t have a topic, but I had this picture and I wanted to post it (how fun is that? my kid’s Barbie Bella and Edward going at it on my dining room table?). So I came up with the compromising position topic.

Have you ever been caught in a, er, compromising position? I have, though not as often as I’d like :evillaugh: .  I think one of mine was in a college parking lot, got caught by security. Another was in a coat closet at a party, got caught by my roommate (poor gal was scarred for life). And really…that might be it. But coat closet was the most humiliating one and yet at the same time I didn’t even care. Yes, I was that far gone. These were all waaay long ago pre-kid. I’m entirely too boring now! :sad:

Got one to share? Your ’shoot we’ve been caught!’ moment?

Who’s your favorite fictional hookups by Candace Havens

whos-your-favorite-fictional-hookups-by-candace-havens

First of all, thanks to Shell for letting me hang out with you guys today. I really appreciate it.

I had a hard time deciding if I wanted to be naughty here. I don’t see why not. So I’m going to talk about hookups. Have you ever had a one night stand? I haven’t. And I’ve been married for 25 years, so the prospects don’t look that promising in the very near future.  (My husband just walked by and gave me the eye.) I need more of an emotional connection when it comes to sex.

But I can certainly imagine what happens. I mean, I do have friends who have triple digit one night stands. (No, I’m not talking about Rosemary and Shannon.) I’ve heard stories that would curl your toes. I’ve heard stories that will make you wonder just how stupid chicks can get when they are drunk. Luckily, they all survived these encounters, and some of them made for very sexy stories.

Don’t get me wrong. I’m not against the instant hookup, just haven’t had a lot of experience with it. But of course, through my fiction I can explore these kinds of relationships. Mariska and Jackson, the stars of my new novel TAKE ME IF YOU DARE don’t exactly have a one night stand, but the get together pretty fast. I like that there is a sense of danger and urgency. They can’t keep their hands off each other. There is an instant connection and they both want each other.

That I have felt. That heat you feel when you meet someone for the first time and you know they are into you, and you are most assuredly into them. That first kiss that takes your breath away, or they touch you and you get chills. The good kind. That’s one of the things I like most about writing romance. I get to re-live those moments time and again. It’s not a bad way to make a living.

For Mariska and Jackson the hookup happens fast but it comes about rather naturally. They both want each other, and even though they know they shouldn’t for a variety of reasons, they do. I think that’s something we can all relate to in some way. Haven’t we all been in relationships that were exciting and maybe a little dangerous, but we jumped in anyway?

Do you have some favorite fictional hookups? Those book that made you feel the heat too? Gena Showalter’s Lord of the Underworld series and Nalini Singhs Angel series come to mind. Hot, sexy reads with to-die-for heroes. That’s important part for me. A strong hero. So share some of your favorites.

Comment here and a random poster will win a copy of TAKE ME IF YOU DARE.

New Release!

new-release

Dare to Surrender is now available! Here are Five Fascinating Facts about the book!

1) In Dare to Surrender, my heroine drives a 1979 Diesel Mercedes exactly like the one I drive. I’ve had two diesel Mercedes, one of which I accidentally filled up with regular gasoline. Turns out diesel cars don’t run on gasoline. Who knew? I also drove away from a gas station with the fuel nozzle still inserted in the tank. I didn’t notice I had the nozzle sticking out of my car until I glanced in my side mirror to make a left hand turn. I have a long, exciting history with this specific type of vehicle so I had to write one into this story.

2) Joy has a secret habit of belly dancing in the privacy of her own home. When I was writing Dare to Surrender, I played instructional belly dancing videos in the background during most of the time I spent writing. I admit once in awhile I’d get up and dance. When no one was watching, of course.

3) My inspiration for my hero, Ash Hunter, was based on Joe Anderson, who played Henry Austen in the movie Becoming Jane.

4) I’ve never written a story without at least one sexy scene involving food. Dare to Surrender was no exception. I never knew French fries could be so hot. Pun intended.

5) Dare to Surrender takes place in the San Francisco Bay Area. Nearly every location is based on an actual place I know intimately. Any reader who wants to know more about my barely disguised locals, feel free to email me at lilli@lillianfeisty.com.

Hairy Legs

hairy-legs

Yep, I’m so going there. My husband was out of town for work for a month. Which means that I let the self-maintenance go a little bit. As in, I didn’t shave my legs for nearly the entire month of January. As I used to say when I was younger and a tad neglectful of that task during the cold months — “I’m growing my winter fur.”

I had some major winter fur growing on my legs. Some of you might be grossed out. Some of you might come by this post because you have a hairy leg fetish. I bet more than a few of you will be thinking, “I do the same thing.”

Go ahead and admit it. I just did. I can’t believe how hairy my legs got! Makes me realize that when I read historical romances and the hero runs his hands along the heroine’s smooth legs, that’s TOTALLY BOGUS. More like he’s running his hand over her smooth fur.

Oh yeah I so totally went there. Hairy legs on women aren’t really sexy, huh? I mean check out these ladies:

Selma and Patty have got it goin’ on! Now confess – do you really keep up the leg shaving during the winter months? Or hey, maybe you’re single and have no man currently in your life. How about then? (Guilty of that too). Let’s talk hairy legs!
