Weekend Writing Warriors – Bartering Payment

sofa2Today on Weekend Writing Warriors #8Sunday, I’m sharing 8-10 sentences from my untitled contemporary romance. While hibernating the winter in a beach house Josh is being paid to remodel, the former K9 handler is befriended by a service puppy in training and her owner. Last week he opened his door to find the woman he met on the beach yesterday with a bag of puppy chow and the pup, Sky, sitting at her feet. She introduces herself and apologizes for barging in on him. Explaining she has to be in court in Virginia and her dog sitter cancelled.

“Guess you figure I’m a push over for furry face.” He glanced at the black bundle that seemed content against his muscular shoulder.

Lucky dog. “Umm yeah.” She checked her watch. “Can I get your number?” she asked while digging her phone from her bag, “Can’t tell you how much I appreciate this.”

“You get a discount at the home improvement store where you said you work?” He rubbed his chin covered in a sexy brown scruff that her fingers itched to touch.

God, the man didn’t even care he was half-naked in front of her as he bartered payment. He knew he had her at a disadvantaged no matter who showed more skin.

Weekend Writing Warriors – Out of Options

WWWshadeToday on Weekend Writing Warriors #8Sunday, I’m sharing eight sentences from my untitled contemporary romance. While hibernating the winter in a beach house Josh is being paid to remodel, the former K9 handler is befriended by a service puppy in training and her owner. Last week he opened his door to find Tori with a bag of puppy chow and the pup, Sky, sitting at her feet. She’s just apologized for barging in on him.

Tori had lost her mind, but she was out of options. The sight of his glistening bare chest froze her mouth before she could explain her presence.

“It’s okay,” he said picking up Sky as he leaned on the door jamb with only a terry towel wrapped around his lean hips.

“I know you don’t know me, and we only met on the beach yesterday, but can I pay you to watch her today?” She sounded desperate and she was after over a year of trying to get her divorce finalized. “I have to be in court in Virginia and I may be gone all day, and my friend who was going to watch her got called into work and…”

“She’ll be fine.” He raised a brow over mischievous gray eyes and took the food with his free hand, setting it inside the door as Sky licked his cheek.
