#SexySnippets where a proposal is...



Hi all and welcome again to #SexySnippets.  I’m about to discover just how my hero gets out of this...



A rustic table, covered with a red and white checked gingham tablecloth, old-fashioned rose painted china, and what appeared to be antique cutlery was set off with aged lead crystal glasses. Dainty sandwiches and cakes filled three lovely oval platters. Two cushioned chairs, a parasol and then incongruously, a cool box on a side table—a mixture of Austen and shabby chic.

The perfect setting for...for what?

He took her hand and lead her to the table, to help her sit down, before he poured a glass of champagne, handed it to her, coughed and got down on one knee.

‘Darling I wonder if you would do me the honour of...’

The big blue and white ball landed with a splat in the middle of the cakes, knocked two glasses over and rolled down onto his head, covering him with cream, jam, champagne and cucumber.

Not quite the best way to propose.

#MidWeekTease Where new beginnings are almost about to happen

Last tease from New Beginnings for Bryony Bennett (Next week I'll tease you with Lottie...Or Amanda...or... wink ) (Bryony is moving from the city to the countryside) The last lap - a tiny track - was not really designed for overloaded geriatric sports cars that were fondly called Milly. Named after her godmother, who had said the vehicle was as creaky as she was, the car protested with every ill-used spring grating like a fingernail on a chalkboard. Poor thing, it sounded as aching as her back felt. Long journeys in clapped out cars, especially one towing a trainer—albeit a small one—weren’t pleasant, but it was all she had. Hold on, I can buy a new one now. Not a sports car though. Stupid though it sounded, it would be like a slap in the face to Milly…or was that a thump on the bonnet? Either way, this lane, all half a mile of ruts and furrows, wasn’t suitable for much less than a four by four, or one of those things that had its chassis jacke...

#MidWeekTease with Lottie in a mood and Bryony on the end of it...

Welcome to my #MidWeekTease Where, as New Beginnings for Bryony Bennett comes out tomorrow, c ue nail biting dancing on the ceiling, and chilling the fizz, I'm teasing you from. Lottie, who is the heroine (yes really) of the next book, is telling Bryony just what she thinks of her... But first... t he blurb When Bryony Bennett’s godmother dies and leaves her a huge inheritance, Bryony jumps at the chance to get away from it all and start again. She packs up her life and moves into the (almost) idyllic Cliff Cottage…only to find that starting over is never quite as simple as you imagine. Faced with grumpy neighbours, hostile locals and more than her fair share of disasters, Bryony embarks on a mission to make sure her new life is everything she wants it to be…but will she ever win over the locals and truly be happy in her new life? and your #MidWeekTease Five minutes before she was due to turn the sign from ‘open’ to ‘closed’, her day took a turn for t...

#MidWeekTease and Lottie is getting creative.

Hi all and welcome to this week's #MidWeekTease. The craft fair surprised him. After noticing the few signs they had passed—no need to stop and ask for directions—Gibb had thought there would maybe a few stalls dotted about, a burger van and someone selling second hand tat. Instead there were rows of vendors, everything was neat and tidy, and each row was even signposted to shop te type of stuff sold. The sign saying ‘everything and anything’ made him laugh. Wasn’t that was it was all about. ‘I want to see if I can get some old lace doilies,’ Lottie said. ‘I’ve got an idea for a table cloth.’ ‘Do people still use them?’ Gibb asked as they headed down the row marked lacework. Lottie glanced up at him. ‘Which?’ ‘Either or.’ ‘Oh yes. A perfect tablecloth can set off a room. I remember years ago seeing a decorative cloth made up of antique lace doilies and it would be perfect to use in the shop. I’ve got that all singing all dancing sewing machine, I m...
