Another ShapeShifting Monday...

It’s been raining on the tame prairie the past couple of mornings. The clouds and thunder roll in and the raindrops saturate the needy ground. It’s a good thing, my Big Beautiful Cats, except for the Kougar’s plaguing allergies. Still, moi wouldn’t have it any other way. She adores the rain and what it does for Mother Earth.
Yep, meow-indeedy, another shapeshifting Monday. This Big Cat has penned another two flashes for the NEW BULL IN TOWN ~ to be featured at SHAPESHIFTER SEDUCTIONS on Tuesday, August 18. So, take a peekie if you want a bull-charging X-good time.
Yep, the Kougar is writing away on BRANDED BY THE TEXANS and havin’ a western-good time... with everything leading up to the ‘branded’ scene.
In the back of moi’s renegade brain... Kandace and her Halloween Hellhound Heroes are coming to life... too bad, since it will be too late to try to submit for Halloween... even if the Kougar does get it written.

Just for the cowboy lovin’ big cats ~ a sneaky peekie THE LAST WRITTEN PARAGRAPHS-snippet from BRANDED BY THE TEXANS...

“Now, we got a fourth.” Dono set the table in the center of the room. “If you play, Kylie.”
“Depends on the game. You all probably play poker. I’m lousy at it.”
None of them spoke, the silence nearly deafening.
“Strip poker,” Dash crowed, then moved to the table and set the tray down.
“In that case, I’m wearing three times as many clothes. No, at least, four times.” Kylie’s voice dared any of them to make her do otherwise.
Dillon chuckled to himself as he eased her onto the floor, then stood behind her.
“You can wear as many clothes as you want, sweetheart.” Dono busied himself placing the chairs.
“Given your sweet-ass luck at cards, you would say that,” Dash fired back. Quickly, he set out the plates, then the glasses of milk while Dono shot a frown at him.
Pivoting, Dash presented a formal posture. “May I seat you, Princess Kylie?”
She hesitated a fraction of an instant before walking toward Dash. “You may, handsome cowboy Prince.”
The sway of her hips trapped Dillon’s gaze and he knew why men fist-pummeled each other over a woman. Hell, what was he going to do? Start fighting his brothers out in the barn over her, after he’d reprimanded them.

Now ~ FIRST! just for the big cool cats ~

Happy Courtship on another Earth

X-Serial Flash in Two Hundred ~ Sylva and Zeke’s story continues....

Part 233 ~

Sylva studied her cowboy’s eyes, glinting like brandy set in sunlight. “Is this such a good idea, walking around? You look worried.” He gave her a smile that should have melted her into a puddle. “Then, we’ll go inside. You show me what you like. And I’ll show you what I like.” Sylva smiled back, then flirtatiously teased, “And what if we both like the same thing?” Lowering his face closer to hers, he rasped, “That’s an automatic purchase, don’t you think?” Sylva slid her fingertip beneath his string tie and twirled. “I think I like how you’re treating me.”

Zeke slowly palmed his woman’s shoulders drawing her close for a moment. Their breaths mingled before he brought her beside him, escorting her into Bethanne’s Finest Women’s Wear. Once inside, the familiar fragrance of honeyed vanilla surrounded them. Before he could think, Zeke froze. Sally Hansen, her blonde pigtails askew as usual, stood at a round of picnic frocks. The teenager had done everything but strip off her clothes in front of him to get his lustful attention and entice him into courtship. He’d never laid a finger on her, except dragging her back to wherever she’d tied her horse.

Linda, what Lindsay said.
How silly to think Kitchens can't be romantic places. If a couple is preparing food together that can be utterly romantic and a wonderful way to learn about each other.
I've used the kitchen in one of my books and just used it in a scene. The heroine doesn't know much about the hero, but because of circumstance they're together at his ranch. How people relate to each other over food and caring for each other is often key to the development of their love for each other.

Weekly Angelic Forecast from Volcano

Straight from the Carnal Cherub himself...

Angelic Forecast ~ #50

This week is about highs and lows within the context of the Unraveling. Ride them out with as much equanimity as you can. That is, rejoice in the highs, but know it is temporary at best. The same is true with the lows. Feel the experience, yet know it is temporary.
Currently, certain forces have not yet solidified. Thus, the week has a murky quality to it. Still, there will be opportunities to move your dream forward. Do it. By doing so you will benefit others as much as yourself.

Angelic blessings from Volcano & Sedona
