E is for Eternity



My A-Z Theme is based on my books, the Game On series. You won’t need to have read them to follow this story, since it’s slightly removed from the full plot, like a side story. What it will do is give you a glimpse into my characters, and a chance to get to know them a little bit, PLUS, during the story, you will get a mini tour of parts of the UK! The posts will come from two of my main characters, Leah Walker and Radleigh McCoy.  If this is your first time here, please start at the letter A. :D

E - Eternity
(Leah)



I could have let Radleigh get the train from London to Zellor, but after flying all the way from L.A, the least I could do was drive to London to collect him. Since he’d be staying for a while, we decided there was no major rush to get back to Cornwall, so after my long drive and his long flight, we were once again planning to spend another night in a London hotel before driving back to Cornwall the next morning.

As I waited for Radleigh at the arrivals gate at Heathrow Airport, my stomach bubbled with excitement. This was really happening. It still hadn’t fully sunk in yet, and as he walked towards me, the grin spreading across my face was almost obscene.
That was my guy. Him. That really tall guy with the huge muscles, sexy eyes, and gorgeous smile. 

Mine. 

It wasn’t the first time I’d been struck by the realisation that I got to take Radleigh McCoy home with me – and not just for the night – forever. Well, hopefully. Eternity is a pretty long time to want to be with someone, but as he approached me, I realised it would take that long for me to get tired of looking at his face. Sure, we would argue sometimes – and we’d had some pretty fiery conflicts in the past – but if there was one person I would happily spend the rest of my life fighting with, it was him.

Sorry for the shortness of this one - it's the weekend lol!

    Brilliant. And I'm with Alex. That's how I feel when I see my husband walking towards me. It's been 17 years and I still feel that way.

    I have that same feeling about my husband too. You did a great job of capturing that special feeling here!

    You know it's meant to be when even fighting can sound romantic.

    Aw. That was so sweet. See, that's how I feel about my guy--and how every woman should feel about their guy. =)

    Oh, I am so in love with Radleigh and Leah!! I remember thinking one day that I'd only get to spend about 75 years with my husband and that made me sad...that seems so short!

IWSG: Performance anxiety

Welcome to the August edition of IWSG, hosted by the amazing Alex J.Cavanaugh ! So, as most of you know by now - because I haven't shut up about it LOL - my first novel, Game On, has been released. The blog tour officially starts next week (YAY!) but I find myself becoming increasingly nervous. A blog tour not only highlights my book, but me. What if people don't like me? What if my guest posts suck, and everyone thinks I'm boring? If I can't engage people in 300 words on a blog, they probably aren't going to pick up my book. And then there's the "what happens next" question. I plan to make Game On into a series, which feels a bit arrogant of me. I don't know how many people are going to like the first book, should I really be planning to keep the series going? So far, Game On has actually been incredibly well received. I've had great reviews, so maybe I shouldn't worry about people not liking it, but what if Book Two isn't as goo

First Fight/First Kiss Blogfest

Yay, it's blogfest time! Many thanks to Danielle and Jackie for hosting! Here are the details: Share your 1 st FIGHT and 1 st KISS scenes in your MS’s or WIP’s. Crack open your current project or dive back into an old one. We want to feel what your characters feel. From the sting of their first fist-to-the-face to the tingling taste of their first kiss. Today is First Fight day, and I wanted to bring you a small excerpt from my NaNo novel which centres around Jesse Shaw, one of the characters from Game On. It's a bit rough, and a bit vague - mainly because I wrote it quickly, Jesse's voice still needs work, and this fight in full would be packed with spoilers, but hopefully it gives enough info to make sense!   Just to clear up a small thing - Georgia is Isabelle's twin sister. :)   ** “Izzy,” I said. “You know the right thing to do.” Isabelle looked down at me with those big brown eyes, and my insides twisted with guilt. Right away, I realised

IWSG: Am I doing it right? And does anyone care?

Happy IWSG Day! This genius idea created by Alex J. Cavanaugh is a place for all of us insecure writers to gather together to talk about our worries, and cheer each other on. Check out the full list of participants here ! Think right now about your favourite writers. How do you feel when you know they have a new book being released? It's usually something like, "HURRY UP, I CAN'T WAIT ANYMORE!" right? And also, think about when one of your super talented blog buddies announces they've got a book coming out soon. That is even more exciting because it's someone you know, someone you may have seen struggling to reach their goal of publication. Someone you've seen go through the rough times, and have finally made it to where they want to be. I can tell you that when Jolene Perry, or Nyrae Dawn announce a book release - I bounce up and down like a crazy person! These two awesome ladies are writers I absolutely adore for their ability to write so natural
