Mud, Ponies & Almost‑Kisses — Behind the Scenes of The Grump I Slept With

I wanted to share a couple of moments that made me laugh out loud — and one that had me grinning at my keyboard. These behind‑the‑scenes bits are some of my favorites from writing Lena and Weston’s story.

The funniest moment --->
The funniest moment hands down has to be the heroine’s first meeting with Bonnie. When Lena walks outside to find a Shetland pony getting into the kitchen leftovers, she at Read more of this blog post »

“I think it started something like this,” I said, taking his hand and guiding it around my waist. I laid my own hand against his chest, sliding it up to his neck where I could feel his pulse hammering beneath his skin.

He sat rigid beneath me, every muscle tense, as if he knew that once he started moving he’d never be able to stop. “That never should have happened,” he said.

“But it did happen. Just like the kiss at the studio today happened. Are you going to keep lying to yourself and pretending that you don’t want this?” I shifted my hips forward, grinding down on a part of him that was clearly very interested in continuing with the evening’s performance.

“I’m not lying to myself. I know I want this,” he gritted out through his teeth.

Finally! Was that so hard to say?

“But it’s still never going to happen.”
