I'll confess: I got hooked.
While I've always been hooked on books, today I'm talking about a man. A very sexy, enticing man.
His name was Trapper Hart and he was my first Dom.
I had met Trapper
Hart a couple months before—we attended the same law school. One day, mentally drained
after a con law midterm, I left the classroom to find a tall, well-built guy
lingering outside. Smiling, he engaged me in conversation, and I tried to seem
really interesting because, articulate and attractive, he was everything I
looked for in a man.
He didn’t
ask me out right away. We started our friendship in the library, where he’d
bring me cappuccinos—wet with extra foam, and treats—he knew I liked double
fudge brownies with nuts.
He’d found out
what I liked, and I luxuriated in the notion that he really cared. I didn’t
know this man well, but he had a knack for getting under my defenses. I’d had
numerous boyfriends, and none had ever bothered to discover my cappuccino and brownie
preferences. It was special, and made me feel special.
Here's what the book is about:

It's very brave of you to write such a personal memoir, Suz. I can see how he drew you in. It took years to train my unromantic hubby to buy me dark chocolate for Valentine's Day. But I wouldn't have traded him for the world.
ReplyDeleteLOL you made a better choice!
DeleteI enjoyed your snippet, Suz. It's unflinchingly honest. It shows where the authenticity that shines through your stories comes from...and I can see why you'd fall for this guy, as he (excuse my phrasing) obviously knew what buttons to push.
ReplyDeleteThis is among the best-written blurbs I've ever seen, and I've reviewed at least 300 books to date. This is a little out of my norm (the Regency lover in me would say "a little out of the common way"), but I'd read and review this one even though finding a way to explain what was going on in a PG-13 way would probably prove to be...challenging.
