Midnight Kiss Giveaway Hop









My favorite Kiss is Gene Simmons! When I was a teenager, I had a crush on him and gazed at his poster for hours, which hung over my bed next to Bon Jovi's. Lol



Okay, all kidding aside…  Picking a favorite kiss isn't easy for me. You should be able to feel a kiss in your toes and there should be face touching. The kiss should be intense—always. 


I picked a LOT of kisses but to keep the post brief here  are my top three kisses.



Dirty Dancing


Pride and Prejudice -- Elizabeth and Mr. Darcy kiss


The Princess Bride

 


Now on to the giveaway. Grand prize - a $25 book voucher from Liquid Silver Books!

My personal giveaway is for an ebook copy of Power of the Moon or Rearranged. Cowboys or Vampires, you pick. ;)

To enter my contest, leave a comment below. Tell me about your favorite kiss or just say hi! Winners will be chosen by random.org. There will be two winners total and don't forget to leave your email address so you can be notified.

Here's a little piece from Rearranged and another favorite kiss of mine.



Wade searched her sad eyes. She had a natural beauty that made her stunning, and the teary gloss in her eyes made them shimmer like blue crystals. He traced her lips with the pad of his thumb, dropping his gaze to their soft, full surface. Leaning forward, he hovered just above her mouth. Their breath mingled, and when he brushed his lips across hers, he was sure a fire would start. He prayed he could pull himself back from what he was about to do. His heart hammered in his chest as he tilted her head back, cupping her neck. He moved in slow wanting to savor the kiss. He took her mouth, and his tongue demanded entry. He’d never felt his tongue tingle before, but the moment theirs united it reminded him of the time he’d eaten Pop-Rocks as a kid. There was no pop, but the fizzling feeling was there. He tried to keep the kiss tame and fought against the urges bubbling up inside him. He wanted to savor more than what he tasted; he wanted to savor everything that was Carly.


Have a safe and Happy New Year!

    2. I have read some soul-searing kisses and have had a few myself. If a man can't kiss well, he was always disqualified as a serious suitor. Kissing is such an integral part of the seduction process. It's a shame men can't always remember that. michelle_willms at yahoo dot com
