I'm happy to be part of the Autumn Harvest Blog Hop!
The spectacular colors of fall, the crisp air, yummy apple cider donuts, spooky Halloween, and my favorite holiday Thanksgiving are all reasons to love Autumn.
But my number one reason to love Autumn is football season!
So in love with the game that when I decided to write romance I decided to write about a football player and I couldn't resist writing this scene in Playing For Keeps....
Ryan lifted her off the grass and they tumbled into the soft pile. Before she could catch her breath their lips met. The sound of leaves crinkling and cracking as he pressed his body against hers surrounded him. They sunk deeper into the pile. He lifted his head and licked his lips. “Mmm, you taste like cinnamon and apples.”
“I sneaked a piece of apple pie.”
“Bad girl.” He knew he should get up, but, damn, she felt so good beneath him. Damn good. “I’ve
worked up an appetite out here, I could use another taste.”

I like the cooler weather to curl up with a good book.
ReplyDeletewildnmild4u at yahoo dot com
My favorite thing about Autumn/Fall is the changing color of the leaves, orange, yellow, red, even purple. They are so pretty. My least favorite thing is raking up those pretty leaves. LOL I love to curl up by the fire and read a hot romance book on a cold fall evening. Thanks for being part of the hop and for the chance to win. <^_^>

I love the holiday spirits. How the houses start to dress up for chritmas, the stores starts to buzz with big sales, people start to make family plans and I make my huge book wishlist for my family members.

I love the fall because of the football games and tailgating! And of course having a campfire with roasted hotdogs! Thanks for a chance to win a great giveaway!

I love everything about Fall--the sights, sounds, smells, tastes, and touch (of the cool air). I especially love that the tourists are gone from my area, the lovely deserted beaches, and "sweater weather." I am the queen of sweater twin sets!
ReplyDeletecatherinelee100 at gmail dot com
I love autumn with all the brilliant colors: oranges, yellows and reds of leaves. I love crisp, cool mornings where the sky is so blue it looks endless and the air is so fresh in your lungs. I love snuggling up in a warm throw on a cold autumn day with a good book. Of course, I love snuggling up with a good book about anytime of the year. I love Thanksgiving because it is a time to remember all the many blessings in my life and express thanks. I love baking spicy pumpkin pies with dollops of cream.
ReplyDeleteI like stories of the unexpected. I also love the steamy passion but I hate mentioning favorite authors because the list is long. I appreciate the many styles authors use to weave stories of mystery, love, intrigue, preternatural and inspiration. I love reading because I can go anywhere, any time in my mind and imagine indescribable things.
Thank you for this contest and the opportunity to be introduced to new authors.

Thanks for joining in the hop. It was great to be introduced to your work.
ReplyDeleteMy favorite part about autumn is that the cool weather gives me the perfect excuse to keep my oven full of yummy deliciousness that I really can't do during two of the three other seasons. I love the feeling of being able to have yummy stuff baking while I nestle in with a good read.
