New work in progress - Wanted:Wife

After writing Bidding Wars, 50,000 words in less then 30 days, I took a little break from writing. My brain needed it. I did however do some edits and proofreads for friends. I got Bidding Wars all ready and currently have my eggs all in one basket, hoping that a certain publisher will like the story and pick it up. But, I don't want to say too much, I might jinx myself.

I all ready knew however, what my next project would be. I had a short story not long ago in an anthology. Well, the publishers closed down and I got the story back. During the time the story was available  I got a ton of great feedback on the story. Reader's loved it and wished it could get its own story. Well, it is. Today I have been hashing out ideas, giving the story a little more depth, and developing the characters a bit more. Here was the original blurb:

 Darcy is down on her luck and can't believe it when she finds herself answering a help wanted ad for a wife. Steven's day starts to look up when the girl he longed for in high school answers his ad. Will these two finally find love in the most unusual of ways?

Originally, this story was more on the erotic side. I've tried to cut that out and move this to a contemporary. It's not going to be closed door by any means. It will be contemporary on the lines of Finding Home and Bare Necessities. There is sex, but its not described in full detail. 

I'm certainly looking forward to taking this journey with the story. I loved Darcy and Steven when I was with them for a brief time before. Now, I hope to sit down with them and spend a lot more time getting to know them. 

Be sure to stop back by for updates or listen to me on facebook or twitter. I sometimes share snippets as a I write them.
