Here's a excerpt from Playing For Keeps by Liz Matis - my football meets romance romp. Available on all your eBook devices and in paperback.
Pulling on his pants, he left the top button open because they were a little tight. He knew he’d pay for eating that burger. The socks came next and he bent forward slowly to reach his feet. Burner was right; Ryan was getting old. At this rate he’d need someone to put his socks on for him. He breathed in deeply and sucked up the pain. Football players stored hurts like a bear stored fat for the winter. Once the season was over, he’d hibernate and heal, just to do it all over again. Except each year it took a little longer to recover.
During the week I'l share another recipe or two or three along with an excerpt.
Ah...the Christmas Eve meatballs. What kind of chili sauce do you use? And what is the ratio of chili sauce to grape jelly?
ReplyDeleteI use the jar of Heinz chili sauce which you find near the ketchup and you use the whole jar of it. And a cup of the grape jelly. You can add more to suit your taste.
ReplyDeleteHi Liz. I came over here from WG2E where I saw one of your comments and realized we both write stories that have football in them and we are both accountants--though my book is a mystery and I'm a closet accountant who only gets to practice at tax time :-). I downloaded Playing For Keeps to my Kindle and look forward to reading it.
ReplyDeleteThis recipe sounds great. I've been looking for something a little outside the box (for me) to try at our Superbowl party. One can only eat so many pigs in a blanket.
The recipe sounds so good! Thanks for sharing! Also, I love the football meets romance romp!
ReplyDeleteHi Trina: Thank you! I'll be sure to check out your books as well. The recipe is super easy.
