Here is an excerpt from Reaching the End Zone: Suzette, in honor of the RWA-NYC blog tour this week.
Her book is available on Amazon: link.
The setting: Suzette and Bobby had just gotten married earlier in the day.

Bobby sat on the couch and watched where Suzette was sitting on the bed in their room at the 1300 Beacon Inn. They were staying for the night with a flight out of Logan in the morning.
She kicked off her shoes and stretched out her feet. “Bobby, I think I’m drunk!”
Now this is going to get very interesting and real soon. He walked over to her. “Is that so?”
“Yesh, booze, I think.” She nodded emphatically. “Food, too. Toasts, lots of toasts. Dancin. Shreamin.”
“Oh yes, that song by Usher. You were screaming when I took you onto the dance floor.”
She stretched and moved her head back and forth.
He sat next to her, put his arms around her, and looked into her face. “Testing to make sure how you feel?”
“I think so. Tipsy?” She was practically leering at him.
Bobby grinned. He had never seen Suzette like this before. What an adventure being married was going to be! “So, what do you want to do about it?”
“I dunno.” She got up and waddled over to the mirror. Twirling, she studied herself. “My hair. Looks very, very pretty.”
“It does.”
“Want to mess it up?”
