#sixsunday 33 couples counseling from Sweet Irish Kisses book one

It's been a while...but I'm back! Big squeezy hugs to all you sixers and everyone who has dropped by to read my addition to Six Sentence Sunday! I'm really looking forward to diving in and seeing what you've all been working on.

Fresh from the editing cave, here's a snippet from Sweet irish Kisses #1 which at present does not have a title. Those of you who know my work will remember Devlin McKinney; he is the crass one from Sweet irish Kiss, my 1st 1NS book.

“This is all da
couples counseling ya need.” Devlin slammed two Irish Kisses-a baileys based cocktail-between the bickering couple. “Anyone would think ya been married for years, so they would. Surely if ya just stop for a minute, ya'll—” Shaun scowled his way. “It's just a drink, no need to stare at me as if I've booked a church and reception for ya!”

And the inspiration for Devlin is James Marsden, image from http://www.thehunkies.com

Shaun Bell has stopped by...come drool, erm, I mean say hello!

It's been long since known that my inspiration for Shaun Bell in Sweet Irish Kiss came directly from the gorgeous Farrell, that sexy irishman who has dark eyes to die for, to get lost in, to give you that perfect come-to-bed wink. *sigh*
But Colin Farrell is also responsible for the absolute cheeky and crass Devlin McKinney, Shaun's bessie mate and full time bar-tender in Sweet Irish Kiss. Devlin's story is actually sitting on my computer, waiting for many rounds of edits and then it's fingers crossed that my editor still loves him as much as she did in Sweet Irish Kiss :)
Meantime, I thought I'd take my hat of to the man responsible for my Irish pub tales...so let's hear it for Colin Farrell.
And if you haven't brought Sweet Irish Kiss yet, an ARe and BookStrand bestseller, well, Shaun is impatiently tapping his foot, waiting to jump into your eReader to give you one of his infamous Sweet Irish Kisses.

BLURB... Shaun Bell, a divorced workaholic, spends all his time tending bar in his Irish Pub. He's ready to love again, but the women who visit his bar are only after his infamous Irish cocktails. At the advice of his darts team over a tanker or two of Beamish, he applies to 1Night Stand to get back into the swing of things and enjoy the company of a woman specially selected for him by Madame Evangeline.
Rachel Taylor has issues. Her father broke her mother’s heart with his cheating and Rachel swore never to let that happen to her, but one ruined relationship after another and she’s realized she's got to get over being closed off to men. Perhaps a one-night stand is just the baby step she needs to begin to build trust again.
A match seemingly made in heaven...until morning rolls around and Shaun can't bring himself to say good-bye. Can he win her over with his secret weapon, a Sweet Irish Kiss, or is Rachel still too scared to love?
