While You Were Sexy – MySexySaturday Marie Tuhart - #mysexysaturday

It’s My Sexy Saturday time again.

This week’s theme is a take on the movie, While You Were Sleeping, and can be fun, quirky or not. So many things can happen while you were sexy...things like falling in love with someone other than your boyfriend/girlfriend...or maybe taking a risk you wouldn’t normally take.

I decided to use a scene from my book His for the Weekend (on sale for .99 cents) where my heroine takes a risk she normally wouldn’t because she can’t stand living on the edge with the hero anymore.


          His heart leaped—now he could prove to her there was more to him than a co-worker and give their relationship a chance. “What are you willing to give me?”
          Her head snapped up and she gnawed on her lip. “Twenty-four hours.”
          “Not enough. A hundred and twenty.”
          Her mouth opened then closed. Her gaze darted left, then right, before settling back on his face. He could almost see the wheels turning in her head. A good sign—she was willing to be his.  “Too long. Forty-eight.”
          He stood and crossed over to her. He needed to be close to her as they negotiated. “Still not enough Ninety-six uninterrupted hours with you.”
          Her nose scrunched up and her lashes swept down, cutting off the view of her expressive eyes. “Sixty—six tonight until six Monday morning.”
          He noted the stubborn set to her chin. It wasn’t ideal, but he could do it. He would not fail in winning her over. Leaning close, he whispered, “I’ll take it.”

I hope you've enjoyed this sexy Saturday.
