Widow Macy Halstead learned of her much older husband’s voracious appetite for cheating shortly before his death. Now it’s too late to get back at him. When she meets his bi-racial illegitimate son at the funeral, a mutual attraction flares. She leaves with him and the two share a night of hot passion.
Alex Jackson set out to get back at the father who treated him like dirt. Bedding his old man’s widow fit the bill—until he forgets his reasons and realizes he really likes Macy. But after a steamy fling, she seems to have second thoughts. Can they overcome their initial agendas and explore the possibility of a relationship?

Best thing about a Quickie - awesome price, only $2.49. To celebrate the release, I will give one commenter a copy -- but don't expect it until Friday.
On another note, I just signed a contract on my 6th book for Ellora's Cave, Rude, Nude and Socially Unacceptable. Gotta love the title! But more details on that another time.
Update: Winner of my book giveaway is Sherry! Please email me. Wynter @ WynterDaniels.com.

Congrats on the almost release. I love it when stories come to me like that, some sort of magic unfolding triggered by nothing you can predict. Love the excerpt too.
I have a mystery short story that arose after years of wanting to use a line of Star Trek dialogue in a story. Love how there are so many different ways the ideas appear and gel.
Congrats on the release!
Wow, Wynter! Congrats on all the good news! Loved the blurb, too!
Congrats on the upcoming release! And you know I love your newest title! Congrats on that contract too :) You're on fire woman.
Congratulations on your almost release. The excerpt was very good. Sometimes all I want to read is a short story because I don't have the time to get into a longer book.

Thanks, Michelle. Feels like a gift when those stories happen.
Terry - I know the story you;re talking about - I think. The red shirt?
Glad you liked the blurb, Flchen1.
Thanks you, Savannah, from one on fire chick to another;-)
Sherry - I know the feeling. I love short stories because I am a slow reader and I don't have much free time. It's great to be able to finish a whole story in one or two sittings.
Wynter, congrats on your new EC release! Sounds hot!
Re: writing--your muse had to take time to develop the story before speaking to you. It's part of the process and something you can't predict or hurry along.
Think of it like dominoes in slow motion. You start it rolling and your thought process gets going...it takes a while for everything to fall into place, but it eventually does.
I think you're right, Jina. It actually worked out well because the beginning came to me at an inconvenient time to start a new story. The rest came when it was convenient!
Jeez woman, look at you go! I'm working on something right now for EC but I'm not sure how long it's going to be. Quickies are great sometimes ;)
Good luck with your story, Kaylea.
Hey, Ash & I are one week later with Strokes, a Quickie for the Art line. Congrats! We'll all raise a toast for a great release week.
To us! And to good sales and great reviews. Congrats on your upcoming release.
Congrats, Wynter! I've got a bunch of random scenes & paragraphs sitting around - hopefully I'll get similar inspiration at some point!
