Totally, Sweetly Irrevocably
From
The Book Junkie Reads . . . Totally, Sweetly Irrevocably (Sweet Lov, #2) . . .
Well, let me just say that I got more than I was expecting from Gina. Turing Officer Boyd's world upside down was just the beginning of Gina's antics. She was on a mission and was not allowing for anyone to deter her from her mission. Rick Boyd was more than just a sexy cop in uniform. He had more going for him. The banter between the two was fun to watch unfold.
The characters were fun and engaging. Looking forward to see more of the family and friends of the Sweet Love series.

No matter
how hot their stakeouts, by-the-book Officer Boyd can’t see a future with a
dangerous, rule-breaking wild-child who despises the law. He’s never felt more
alive, though, and expunging her from his heart might be impossible. But loving each other might cost them
more than they are able to give.

EXCERPT . . .
Joe
looked her over and then glanced back at Rick, who for the first time looked
more uncomfortable than amused. “We gotta frisk her,” he said.
Rick’s
frown deepened. “I don’t think that’s necessary. She’s not armed.”
Joe
looked at him in surprise. Rick shrugged. “I know she’s not armed and she
wouldn’t hurt us if she was. She’s not a criminal.”
Gina’s
eyes narrowed. “Gee, thanks for the vote of confidence.”
That
sexy half smile touched his lips again, and Gina clenched her stomach muscles
in an attempt to keep that little electric jolt from spreading through her. No
such luck.
“Look,
I may not be as much of a stickler for the rules as you,” Joe said. “But if
she’s going to be in the car uncuffed, she needs to be frisked. I’ll do it if
you’re not comfortable.”
Rick
shot his partner a surprised and unhappy look. “No. I’ll do it.”
“Really,
boys. Fighting over who gets to feel me up is so grade school. One of you just
do it, already.” She leaned against the truck, arching her back a little as she
looked over her shoulder. If she had to do this she was going to enjoy it. And
make it as hard for Officer Boyd as she could. Pun totally intended. Nothing
like a little payback torture to perk a girl up.
Her
eyes met his and held, their gazes transmitting a scorching heat that sent a
shiver running down Gina’s spine. She knew she was in trouble. She knew people
were watching. She didn’t care. The thought of Rick’s hands on her made her
heart jackhammer in her chest. Not that she thought he’d dare. He’d chicken out
for sure.
Joe
took a step toward her and Rick blocked him, his hand slapping against the
other man’s chest. His eyes didn’t leave Gina’s until he was standing inches
from her. Then he let his gaze roam over her, from head to foot and back again.
He leaned over her and grabbed her hands, moving her around the side of the
truck so the vehicle shielded her from the gawking occupants of the bakery. He
slapped her hands back down and kicked her feet farther apart. Her breath
caught in her throat. His hands trailed across her shoulders, up under her hair
and then down her back. His huge hands spanned the whole surface of her back,
with his fingers trailing down her sides. Then they moved up the front. She held
her breath, her teeth biting her bottom lip as his hands came within a
hairbreadth of her breasts. Then they moved away.
She
released her breath with a near sob. Her nipples tightened painfully, as if in
protest that they’d been ignored. It had been far too long since she’d gotten
laid. It was the only explanation for why she was leaning against a truck on
the verge of an orgasm just from being not-very-thoroughly frisked by an anal
cop.
His
hands skimmed up her legs to her thighs, and a small moan that she couldn’t
catch fast enough escaped her lips.
Rick
immediately stepped back. “I think that’ll suffice,” he said, his voice gruff.
Gina
straightened and looked back at him. “Not nearly. But it was a good start.”
Instead
of being surprised or shocked, as she’d intended, Rick smiled that sexy bedroom
smile of his. “That was me doing my job,” he murmured. “If I had any intent
other than arresting you, that wouldn’t have even counted as preliminary
foreplay.”
Gina
swallowed and forced herself to drag in a lungful of air. He was toying with
her. And heaven help her, she was loving every second of it. Aside from the
minor detail of her arrest. That part sucked.

Kira Archer’s Music Playlist
Music is a very strong inspiration
for me. It isn’t necessary for my writing process, but it can really help set
the mood or get a scene in my head if I need a little help. And as it is summer
and my kids are home all day, it’s also great for drowning out the background
noise ;-) I tend to listen to instrumental music when writing as lyrics can be a
bit difficult to tune out sometimes. My
go-to faves depend on the mood I’m going for. For more angsty/sad/tense scenes
I gravitate toward The Piano Guys, Evanescence, Apocalyptica, E.S. Posthumus, and
Rob Dougan.
My current release, Totally,
Sweetly, Irrevocably, is a funny book with characters who enjoy pushing each
other’s buttons. So I kept the music light and upbeat. My playlist mostly
consisted of Lindsey Stirling and Parov Stelar on Pandora. A few of my favorite
songs of theirs:
Lindsey Stirling: Master of Tides,
Roundtable Rival, and The Arena
I also listened to my Old School
playlist quite a bit – gotta love that 90’s music ;-) Some faves from that list
are:
Shoop – Salt N Pepa
Mainly anything that made me want to
dance or put a smile on my face was good for this book!
