What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
The idea for SHE came to me at the beginning of this year. I was working on a website as a freelance editor and I saw several posts about writers required for short erotic stories. My curiosity was sparked!!
I wrote the first two pages of SHE and something clicked within me. I knew I wanted to (had to) keep writing it and a plot formed in my mind soon after.
Because this was my first piece of erotic writing I had anticipated that SHE would be a short story, but once these characters got going they could not keep their hands off of each other
Very soon I surpassed the 100k mark and I had so much I still wanted to write, and so decided to cut SHE in Parts 1 & 2.
How Did You Come up With Your Characters?
I wanted to write about a woman who is confident, sure about herself, and funny. She’s independent, capable and very cool. And for this woman I wanted to create a man who is honest, loving, affectionate, passionate and strong. These are the characters I ended up creating.
Book Sample
Upon delivering our drinks the waitress stands idly by our table, waiting to take our food order. Logan orders a pasta dish and a glass of wine to accompany it. I tell her I’ll have the same. She nods and walks away as I look down at the menu to see how much that wine costs. Shit! Thirty euros for one glass! That kind of oversight would have had Jerry reeling. Never mind, I tell myself quickly. I’m an independent woman now, who can spend her cash any way she chooses. I don’t need to appease that prick anymore.
“Jerry is a prick,” Logan says to me. I am instantly convinced he can read my mind.
“I concur,” I say quickly.
“Did you know I fired him from our latest project?”
My eyes widen in surprise. Where’s he going with this? “I did not,” I confess. “But I’m glad you did,” I add coldly.
He smiles, his eyes smouldering. He’s lost his earlier inhibition; he’s confident and for the first time the conversation begins to flow freely. “I was going to fire him two years ago. I wanted to, desperately, but I couldn’t.”
“Ah, well, some of those contracts can be tricky to dissolve.”
“That’s not why,” he tells me. I look at him quizzically. He takes a breath and embodies his brave, bold and daring persona. We’re beginning to unravel why exactly he asked me to meet him today. “I was all set to fire him two years ago, I was going to do it after the winter AABD party, but something at that party changed my mind… It was you.”
I gape at him.
“That’s the first time we met, do you remember?”
“I do,” I stammer.
“Jerry walks in, smug asshole he is, and on his arm…is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen,” he says, and his sincerity does not waver. He frowns as he remembers, “But he’s so nonchalant towards her…so inattentive…as though he has no clue how radiant his girlfriend is. This shocks me. How can you be with such a stunning woman and act so coldly? And how come said stunning woman doesn’t throw her drink in his face, and choose a man more suited to her, who will dote upon her always?” His questions linger in the air, ringing in my ears. He takes another swig of his lemonade, and then shrugs.
He’s talking about me in third person. This makes his words sound sexier, though no less unreal to me. I am tempted to look around for hidden cameras. This is surely some sort of sick joke. But I cannot pull my eyes away from Logan’s. He has me captivated.
“It was strange to see you with him. He’s really not your type, you know?” he grins, and my body wants to groan. “I spent the whole night gazing at you, enamoured.”
“What—what was I doing?” I manage to say. I have no recollection of having his eyes on me.
“Sitting, mostly. Wringing your hands, perhaps waiting for your boyfriend to ask you to dance, which, of course, he never did.” He’s disapproving.
“He’s no dancer.”
“Most men aren’t,” he says, almost sternly. “But when a man is with a woman like you, he dances. It’s the only logical thing to do, Gemima.”
He renders me speechless. It’s the first time my name has passed across his lips. I like hearing it; he likes saying it.
