Scavenger
Hunt Instructions:
For
Dating Impossible, I wanted to do something a bit more than just a regular blog
tour. I thought it would be fun if you all looked for a secret word. From day
one, there will be a secret word inside the body of each post. When you string them together, they make a
sentence. Be the first person to email me at kathleengrieveauthor@gmail.com with the completed sentence and win a $100 Amazon
Gift Certificate! To be eligible, you must also leave a comment on each blog,
follow my own blog http://kathleengrieve.blogspot.com , follow me on Facebook https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Kathleen-GrieveAuthor/251669291518939 and on Twitter @kathleengrieve
I
will also be picking one person from each comment section to win a free e-book
copy of Dating Impossible, the second book in my Dating Series from Evernight
Publishing.
I
look forward to hearing from you! Now let’s have some fun! First off, special thanks to Siobhan Muir for
hosting me here today! It’s day #8 of 9 stops of me telling you all about my
new release, Dating Impossible.
Music!
It’s a very important part of my writing process and plays a role in my
stories. Listening to the right lyrics sets the mood for a particular scene to
unfold. In The Doctor’s Deception an old
rock tune triggers a sad memory for heart surgeon, Stone Lassiter. In the opening scene of Dating 911,
firefighter Jett Avery sings The Police’s “Roxanne” to ER nurse Roxanne Carter
and we find out she hates that song! LOL
In
Dating Impossible, a little Sheryl Crow was in order. Dr. JJ Jones has had one hell of a day and
unwinds in the tub with a cold beer, lots of suds and the bluesy lyrics of Run
Baby Run! What can be better than that? (secret word #8 “it”)
So
what kind of music helps you relax when the world’s stressors have piled their
load on your shoulders? In the comment section tell me your favorite song or
group. Don’t forget, comments are
required on each blog on this tour in order to be eligible for the grand prize
of $100 Amazon Gift Card. Don’t forget your email address so I can contact the
winner! And I also will be picking someone for a free e-copy of Dating
Impossible!
BLURB:
Focused on her career, Dr. JJ Jones doesn't
have time to date—and she certainly doesn't want to date the "player" of the ER none other
than her girlhood crush, Dr. Cruz Avery. JJ found out the hard way that
romantic relationships in the work place don't mix forcing her to relocate back
to Arizona and change jobs. She's determined to spend her free time enjoying her Harley, reading true-crime novels, and learning
about the new community she lives in. Dogged by the gorgeous Dr. Avery with his
skillful hands, disarming smile, and hot lips, her resolve wavers. For now,
she's having fun making his mission to date her down right impossible!
EXCERPT:
But damn if she wasn’t all prickly one minute and
hot and yummy in his arms the next. His cock hardened and he shifted in his
chair. Large almond-shaped green eyes, pink pouty lips, and that sexy belly
button ring and tattoos. Cruz shook his head. JJ was definitely a mix of
contradictions. She was all innocence and badass rolled into one. And smart.
None of his usual bullshit lines would work with
her. So how was he going to get past her no-dating-a-co-worker rule and find
out if they had the possibility of a real future together? Christ, she was
making this entire dating thing impossible. He rubbed the tense muscles of his
neck.
Sex two nights in a row doesn’t mean we
are dating. Or in a relationship.
Her words looped over and over against his skull and
were the other reason why he couldn’t concentrate on jack-shit today. What he
needed was a plan. But what?
He sat up straighter in his leather chair. The
kernel of an idea blossomed. What if she didn’t realize they were going out
on dates? Yeah, baby. He liked the notion already. But he’d have to tread
carefully. JJ was a clever girl. Cruz would just have to be one step ahead of
her in order to make his plan work. And once she was hooked on him… He glanced
at his reflection in the full-length mirror that hung on the back of his office
door and pointed to himself. His lips curved into a perfect smile and he
winked.
Who could resist this?

Thank you for stopping by. Good luck on the scavenger hunt and happy reading! :)
Thank you so much! I've enjoyed this VBT tremendously!
ReplyDeleteMy favourite music to listen to for relaxing is Michael Jackson's Number One Hit's album and James Arthur from X Factor UK :)
ReplyDeleteOhhh, I bet that has his best music on it! I will have to look for it, Alicia! Great to see you again! Good luck on the hunt! One more day to go!!
DeleteRock for sure helps me!
ReplyDeleteRock is awesome, Danielle! I wrote most of Dating 911 to Nickelback's Darkhorse! The sleezy verbage of the songs was just how firefighter Jett Avery was feeling! LOL Good luck on the scavenger hunt!
DeleteOh my gosh, favorite groups is not easy because I have a lot. Probably my all time favorites are The Clash and Depeche Mode. I am definitely aging myself a little with my choices. The Clash I love to listen to when I'm in an awesome mood along with Maroon 5. When I'm down or trying to relax I will listen to Depeche Mode or Sarah McLachlan who I love too. But as far as musical taste goes I pretty much love a little bit of everything. sbereza22(at)gmail(dot)com
