Welcome to #SixSunday!
Today’s Six Sunday I’m continuing with my upcoming release, BEER AND GROPING IN LAS VEGAS due out December 19. As we’re getting closer to the due date, things are starting to happen! You can now add it to your Goodreads shelf, and I’ve also created a page for it on my website which will have updated buy links as they become available.
This is in her POV and she’s describing the fit of Riley’s khakis:
Not too tight, not too loose, but just right. Just call her Goldilocks of the Khaki Admirers. After all, a girl enjoyed a glimpse of firm butt. Speaking of which, she’d need to peek later.
But what attracted her most were his warm, intelligent, bourbon-brown eyes. She’d had a hard time looking into them during dinner, like she’d overexpose or singe herself, or worse, like they’d penetrate to the stark loneliness she buried so deep within.
And last weekend, I had fun creating a trailer for BEER AND GROPING IN LAS VEGAS!
I’m also kicking off a blog tour on December 17 and if any of you have slots available on your blog for hosting me, I’d love to be a guest 🙂 Just shoot me an email at angela [at] angelaquarles [dot] com

Sue
/ December 9, 2012Loved the last line – excellent. By the way it might be just me but I looked at the trailer the other day and while it’s great it scrolled too quickly for my eyes to catch it all – otherwise excellent
sueannbowlingauthor
/ December 9, 2012Who says geeks can’t be sexy.
Carrie-Anne
/ December 9, 2012I love a man with brown eyes. I like how you describe them as bourbon-colored. I usually describe brown eyes and hair as chocolate-colored.
Jenna Jaxon

Elin Gregory
/ December 9, 2012“ike she’d overexpose or singe herself, or worse, like they’d penetrate to the stark loneliness she buried so deep within.”
That’s excellent.
susanroebuck
/ December 9, 2012That’s warm and sexy – I too love that last sentence. Well done

Cara Bristol
/ December 9, 2012She’s got it bad! BTW, liked your trailer. Cute!
Karysa Faire
/ December 9, 2012Angela, Angela. Sigh. That last line almost made me weep. I know it’s supposed to be sexy and all (and it is!), but it’s also very touching. I felt her vulnerability.
Brooklyn Wilde
/ December 9, 2012Khaki Admirers indeed! Nice six. LOVE the title, too.
evelynjules
/ December 9, 2012Your description is FAB! Particularly love the colour of his eyes. Mmm, bourbon-brown. I’m really excited for this book! 🙂
Heather Boyd
/ December 9, 2012Beautiful description. 🙂
J.M. Blackman
/ December 9, 2012This six took a turn. First we were grinning with her–yes, just right. But then for it to lead to her realization that she didn’t want him to see her loneliness…so real. Great six.
Kylie Scott
/ December 9, 2012Groovy trailer! Not long now till release day. Congratulations, Angela! So excited for you.
Frank Fisher

Lorraine Paton
/ December 9, 2012Great six, Angela, as always! And, I love your trailer too! (It made me laugh)
Gem
/ December 9, 2012Enjoyed the trailer and loved the six!
J.M. Blackman
/ December 9, 2012This six took a twist. At first we’re grinning with her over the just right fit, but then we’re relating to that loneliness that at one point or another, most of us have had a hid. Evocative in different ways.
Lila Shaw
/ December 9, 2012A nice firm butt is quite important as Goldilocks well knows! Good luck with the release.
Sandra Bunino (@SandraBunino)
/ December 9, 2012I love your cover!! Congrats on the release…just a few more days!
Fab six!
Stephanie/Elise
/ December 9, 2012For some reason, I don’t remember the eye thing from the first time I read it. Is it new? Because I can totally relate — sometimes it’s nearly painful to look at someone. What a great detail to include. 🙂
Angela Quarles
/ December 9, 2012Yep, it was there 😉
siobhanmuir
/ December 10, 2012Wow, I really liked the line about the eyes, how they’d expose the loneliness. Nicely written six, Angela. 🙂
sarahballance
/ December 15, 2012Wow. Now THOSE are some amazing eyes! Awesome writing!
