So, I’m doing pretty good in the writing department, but my personal schedule is all messed up again. I’m sleeping in shift of 4or 5 hours at night, and then a 2-3 hour nap in the early afternoon. I’m sure the recent heat wave we’ve got going on here has something to do with it, but for now, I’m crediting writing with it. I actually love to sleep during the day, for whatever reason, I always get a deeper sleep. I think I might have to give my new character that trait as well.
In other writing news, TROUBLE is almost here! I’m checking for my author copies almost every day, but they’re not here yet. To be honest, sometimes they arrive after the book has hit the store, but I’m still anxiously waiting for it.
ARC’s went out a while back so reviews are coming in, and yes, I’m going to start posting and bragging.(and that includes excerpts, like the one included at the end of this post) I think one of the reasons TROUBLE is so exciting to me is because not only is it a hot romance story, but it’s about friendships too, and that’s important to me.
So, it seems that Romantic Times magazine has given TROUBLE 4 Stars. More important than the star rating is the comment…and check it out!!
“White’s highly erotic tale is an attention-grabber from page one. The story starts with a scorching encounter between the main characters and keeps the heat level high with a steamy threesome. The heroine’s personality will appeal to the wild side that lurks inside us. All the characters are easy to relate to, and a vicious ex-wife adds plenty of conflict. Other elements keep the tension building, and the plot doesn’t lag anywhere.”

Then there’s the 5 Blue Ribbons from Romance Junkies as well!!
“Sasha White’s stories just get better and better. TROUBLE was smoking hot, erotic, fun and sassy! Samair is the girl next door turned vixen on a mission. She’s sassy, sweet, passionate and smart. Val on the other hand is dominant, suave, rugged and so damn sexy you’ll melt when you read about him. The moment these two meet, the world crumbles down around them. It’s like an earthquake between them. This was definitely the most sexually engaging book I’ve read in a long time. I couldn’t put TROUBLE down. The story line is flawless, hooking this reader from the very first sentence. If you are a reader looking for a cross between romance, erotica, a great storyline and some humor thrown in, then TROUBLE is the story for you. I loved the fact that both characters were after something more in the relationship than just sex, but were a little worried about scaring the other one off. Sasha White portrays her characters in real life situations which makes them even more endearing to readers. This is definitely a book for the keeper shelf and I cannot wait to read the next book from the astonishing Ms. White very soon!”

If reviews aren’t enough to interest you, then read on, and see if the excerpt below gets you going. :attack:
Val stood in the shadowed corner watching Samair as she danced. Things were pretty hectic the last few days with staff problems, Vera calling, and a visit to the courthouse to testify about a fight that had happened outside the club six months earlier. All normal things, but everything seemed to be happening at once, and the curvaceous blond had popped into his head at odd times. He’d be doing the schedules or on the phone with his liquor vendor and the image of her on his desk, all angelic and naughty at the same time would fill his mind.
He hadn’t lied when he told Karl he wasn’t going to let her distract him, but he’d been able to think of nothing other than learning more of her secret fantasies since she’d walked into Risqué that night.
The club was pretty busy for a Monday night and he’d watched from his office as she laughed and danced with her friends until the itch under his skin became undeniable. After a quick round of the club, checking in with his doormen and bartenders to see that all was well, he’d found a corner and searched her out with his gaze.
A soft pink top hugged her upper body and showed off her fantastic cleavage, and some long flowing skirt hid the curve of her delectable ass. Her breasts bounced and her skirt swung as she danced with an enthusiasm and abandon that called to the animal deep within him.
As if she sensed his thoughts, she spun around and her gaze landed directly on him. On the corner where he stood.
There was no way she could see him in the darkened corner, but she knew someone was there, watching her. A defiant and blatantly devilish grin spread across her face and she shook her ass, rubbing back against her partner. The challenge in her gaze was clear. She was out to have a good time, and nothing was going to get in her way.
Raising her hands, she spun in her partner’s arms, did a last rub against him, then walked away, leaving the loser who’d been trying to make a move on her behind on the dance floor.
The thrill of the chase fired up inside him and he stepped out of the shadows to follow her. If she really wanted to misbehave, he was the man for her.
He saw her at the back bar and moved in that direction. When he stepped up behind her, Tommy was just sliding her drink in front of her. With a shake of his head Val signaled the bartender to refuse her money. Before she could turn around, he leaned in and spoke softly against her ear. “What’s number two?”
She did a tight turn, her body brushing erotically against his, and looked up at him. “Number two?”
“On your list of favorite sexual fantasies.”
“Oh, that.” Her baby blue eyes met his dead on. “You thinking of helping me experience the whole thing?”
“Possibly.”
Her little pink tongue snuck out and slid slowly over her pouty bottom lip making his cock twitch with need.
Samair saw the flare of heat in Valentine’s dark eyes and an answering flame licked at her insides. The urge to dance close to the fire had her reaching out to place a hand low on his belly. His stomach contracted and heat seeped through the silk of his dress shirt to her fingertips, invading her body.
“I’m not so sure ‘possibly’ is good enough. You’re asking me to share my deepest desires. They’re very personal.” She struggled to keep her voice light and flirtatious.
“How about we make a little deal?”
“Deal?”
He moved closer, leaving mere millimeters of space between their bodies as he reached up to brush a lock of hair away from her cheek. “You tell me your fantasies … and I’ll make them come true.”
