      Having No Sexy ~ @MySexySaturday #Saturday7 #MSSWeek40 #MySexySaturday

      <><><><>

      The “theme” this week from the My Sexy Saturday blog hop page: What happens when we’re having no sexy? When our characters are too tired, too ill or just not in the mood. We realized even though we talk about the sexy and doing the sexy and everything sexy, sometimes that just doesn’t enter the picture. Sometimes it is truly about the love between two people when the sexy fails them for some reason. One of the best songs ever to represent this stance has to be from the movie Notting Hill called When You Say Nothing At All. Follow the Link below to visit other participants.

      Seven paragraphs from Cowboy Boss and his Destiny

      Mary J McCoy-Dressel, western romance, website

      This isn’t really a set-up, but sometimes a man has to do what he has to do.

      Grabbing his keys from the table, he hurried to his truck, started it and took off down the dirt driveway—turning right onto the first road, onward to U.S. 60. He struggled to keep it at the speed limit. For the second time tonight, he turned down her road but this time he didn’t spin around to go back the other way. Pulling up in front of her townhouse, he revved the engine before turning it off.

      Tristan peered into the mirror, took cologne from the console and slapped on a small amount. He plopped his hat on. At her door, he took a deep breath and knocked hard. A light came on inside, and his heart sprinted. She opened the door—messy hair and rubbing her eyes.

      “Remember I said I was a man of my word?”

      She removed his hat. “Get in here.” She crashed into his arms.

      Yeah, just want I needed. He lifted her, and her legs went around his waist, exciting him beyond comprehension. He kicked the door shut and took her lips in an ardent kiss on the way to the bedroom, plopped down on the bed, and lay beside her. “Let me lie with you. That’s all I want right now,” he whispered breathlessly.

      “Yes,” she said, snuggling beside him.

      He stretched out along side of her, one leg hooked over hers. He tightened his arms around her until he absorbed her warmth, scent, her passion. Tristan closed his eyes, and slept.

      Thank you for reading.

    • Don’t You Get It? ~ My Sexy Saturday

      Posted at 12:28 am by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on February 1, 2014

      Hello! I’m back. I’ve been away from my blog and My Sexy Saturday. Today I have something that fits the theme for this thirty-fourth week. Not my thirty-fourth week though.

      Click the Banner to go to My Sexy Saturday Blog Hop Blog Site

      This week we’re talking about those broken heroes and heroines who think they have nothing left to give to another person. They’ve stopped looking for their soul mates or don’t believe they even have one. They are truly surprised when someone falls for them.

      I bring you seven paragraphs from a work in progress. This happens to be the second book in the Double Dutch Ranch Series: Love at First sight. You’ll meet Jase Carlson in the first book ~ Cowboy Boss and his Destiny ~ Book two is Jase’s story.

       Falling for someone can be difficult when you think your heart isn’t ready. Brenna has fallen hard for Jase Carlson. Jase on the other hand, is having a hard time with letting go of his heartache.

      Excerpt:

      Mary J McCoy-Dressel, western romance, heartbreak's rewardHis words said something different than his eyes, actions, and kisses. He attempted to hide a longing. If she looked real hard, it was easy to find. “I’m not asking for anything, Jase. We barely know each other.” Still, she had a longing for him, barely knowing each other or not. “Everybody needs a friend.” Jase brought her hand to his lips again, but this time he touched the tip of his tongue against her knuckle then licked his lips as if tasting her.

      Jase moved closer. “You wanna be friends with me, Brenna?”

      Why’s he doing this? “Yes, if it means spending time with you. I think you’re worth getting to know. You’ve been broken and maybe forgot what it was like to…have another woman care for you.” He grasped her behind the neck with both hands and pulled her forward meeting her half way. He kissed her roughly, his lips devouring, his tongue parting her lips. She gave it all right back.

      Reaching around, she laced her fingers through the long hair at the back of his neck. Brenna eased her hand over his shoulder and down his arm, wrapping her fingers as much around his bicep as she could. Jase pulled away as fast as he had kissed her, leaving her breathless and wanting more.

      He narrowed his eyes. “You wanna be friends with that? I can’t resist kissing you. That’s not how a friend kisses a friend.” Jase took her face between both of his hands, moved an inch closer. “Don’t you get it? I’m not looking for a partner, but you had to do this.”

      Brenna took hold of his wrists, pulled his hands from her face, and moved back. “It’s time I go home.” She stood and took her glass into the kitchen. This had taken a different turn. Jase remained sitting on the patio. What a fine mess this was. She needed to get home yet there he sat. Pacing in the kitchen, she thought about what he said. His kisses burned, not only her lips. Something about him sucked her in but plainly he wasn’t ready. It was time to get back to business. She padded to the doorway and exited. “Jase, will you drive me home?”

    • Two Bottles of Wine and Twinkles. My Sexy Saturday 30

      Posted at 1:32 am by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on December 21, 2013

       Sexy You Tonight ~ @MySexySaturday #MySexySaturday #MSSWeek30 #Saturday7

      Click the Banner to go to My Sexy Saturday Blog Hop Blog Site

       

      Welcome to the 30th week of My Sexy Saturday and our final Saturday of 2013.

      From My Sexy Saturday Blog: Have you ever noticed as a writer or reader that sometimes the setting more than helps with the romance? Sexy you tonight can be about that moonlit walk on the beach. Or how about star gazing in the desert. Or maybe just a beautiful pool in the hero’s backyard. They all sexy you tonight. Where sexy is can be just as important as just being sexy. Whether it is on the highest mountain top, in the deepest ocean or in space, it will be special for your characters. So give us your best sexy you tonight. Tell us about that special place where only lovers go.

      From Howdy, Ma’am. The first book in the Bull Rider Series. Set-up: Before the season begins, Velia and Caulder are getting to know each other. It has to start somewhere—

      The setting is a star-studded sky over the Sonoran Desert and two bottles of wine help break the ice so to speak, beginning with a little small talk. Spending the night in a mansion can only add to Velia’s night with the bull rider.

      Mary J McCoy-Dressel, Bull Rider Series new cover, western romance

      Bull Rider Series 1

      “Do you think I wear a cowboy hat for nothing? Of course I shoot. Did you ever shoot skeet?”

      “No, but I watched my father and his friends.” Velia chuckled. “Who you fooling, you’re not a real cowboy. So says you.”

      “Damn, you’re good.” Caulder laughed. “It’s time you tried.” He grabbed her hand. “Come on, the sun is setting and I want you to see this.”

      Caulder lit a fire in the pit and they sat in comfortable, wooden deck chairs with a glass of red wine and the bottle between them. “Here it goes. Watch before it drops off the face of the earth. Look, there it goes, going, going, almost gone.”

      They relaxed in quiet until the burning ball dropped all the way below the horizon leaving a flaming orange sky in its wake. The foreground glowed, amazingly changing colors before their eyes. The tall cacti stood silhouetted against the blazing backdrop. Shadows became more prominent against the mountains, and the sky turned red behind them, leaving the rock face glowing. It wasn’t long before the sky darkened to deep purple, midnight blue, and then black. Caulder opened the second bottle of wine. “This one is for the zillion stars you’re about to see. And if we’re lucky, we might see a shooting star or two.”

      Velia gazed at the darkness above. “I love the sky when it’s littered with twinkles. I never saw this in Chicago, even atop the Hancock Building.” Velia laughed, feeling comfortable beside this near stranger.

      “I’ve seen it a lot. That’s why I want it now. In Pennsylvania, we have lots of property and we’re away from city lights. Yep, always had twinkles in my sky.”

      End of Excerpt.

    • Sexy Saturday’s Seven- Use Your Imagination

      Posted at 12:05 am by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on August 17, 2013

      LynnSexySaturday_button

      From My Sexy Saturday Blog: “The sound of a lover’s voice be it deep and sexy or soft and delicate can be such a turn on with each word they say. Their fingertips along your cheek can be just the touch you need. But sometimes, you will miss your lover and their sexy ways…” Follow THIS LINK for detailed information, and to find more sweet to sexy reads. Everyone is invited. There’s something for everyone.

       

      For my contribution today, I’m returning to Hey, Cowboy, Book Two in the Bull Rider Series, but today I’m bringing you seven words. I prefer not to give a set-up for this scene, but you might want to think “The Music of the Night” — and maybe a desert. What does an opera have to do with a dramatic western romance? Ah, yes, it all started when Italian class met bull rider rowdy. Their differences are what make this relationship so special.

      Feel free to use your imagination. Seven words…

      “Baby, you need…to…stop,” he whispered.

      Mary J McCoy-Dressel, Bull Rider Series new cover, western romance

      Today, I bring you seven sentences from Book #2 in the Bull Rider Series. A special moment is shared. Well, to Velia, there are many special moments with her cowboy. This one happens to be Thanksgiving Eve and they’re surrounded by family.

       

      EXCERPT

      Velia waited until Caulder took a seat on the sofa then sat beside him, snuggling close enough to feel his body heat. He handed her a glass of wine and grasped her hand, smoothing his thumb over her skin.

      His touch—special, warm, but more than a physical heat—internal, too. Something about his touch electrified her soul, brought her to life.00015

      She leaned against him and placed her head on his shoulder for a moment, inhaling a whiff of his cologne and the man-scent of him after a full day. A rousing crawled over her body, loving emotions taking over—oblivious to anyone else in the room…but him. When tomorrow rolled around, she’d have a lot to be thankful for.

    • C.J. Hollenbach, Cover Model and Fantasy Hunk. Smart and Sexy All Rolled Into One!

      Posted at 3:31 pm by Mary J. McCoy-Dressel, on February 13, 2011

      UPDATE 12/31/2013 ~  LOOK WHAT C.J. HAS OUT~ In his own words

      Confessions of a Romance Cover Model

      By CJ Hollenbach

      Available Everywhere in eBook and print format. Click photo for link to Amazon.

      CJ's New Book

      CJ’s Book

      Note: I’ve removed a lot of pictures that CJ gave me permission to use. Visit his WEBSITE to see his pictures there.

      A while ago I did an interview with the legendary C.J Hollenbach. His interview has continued to receive hits on my blogs, so I decided to update some of the questions and information and re-post an updated version. C.J. was glad to answer my new questions and update me on new happenings in his life.

      So for this Valentine’s Day, I invite you to get comfortable and enjoy reading my wonderful interview with Christopher James (CJ) Hollenbach, Romance Cover Model and “Fantasy Hunk of 2001.” In the beginning I sent C.J. a swarm of questions and asked him to answer 10 or 15. He chose to answer them all.  What a guy! Hold on, Ladies and gents. And keep that cold shower ready.

      Mary– “Tall, blond, muscular, smart, and sexy all rolled into one! C.J, welcome. Thank you for this wonderful interview!”

      “I learned a long time ago to never argue with a woman and I’m not about to start with the comments you’ve made in your introduction of me. I will completely agree with you!” CJ

      Q: What did you want to be when you grew up?

      A: I always thought I would be an artist. I was a fine arts major in college, painting. There was one professor who said I was the only freshman that year with any talent. I finally figured out what the term “starving artist” meant and switched to graphic design.

      Q: If it wasn’t modeling, did you pursue that career before your modeling career began?

      A: I did a lot of freelance design and illustration for a while after college. Unfortunately for me, the whole college experience was ruined by the powers that ran it. It made me sad that I no longer had the desire to do the thing that I really loved doing and was so good at.

      Q: What was your first thought when someone suggested you should model?

      A: I thought they were CRAZY. I never thought I was even passably attractive until I was 25!

      Q: Was it hard to land your first cover, to break into the business?

      A: It was incredibly hard! It took me 8 years to get my first cover! Who else would be crazy enough to stick with something that long, but I always knew I could do it. I believed in myself when nobody else did. I’m very proud of myself for it too…. Follow your dreams! Sometimes they come true…

      I totally believe this, CJ. Follow your dreams…

      Q: After your first cover shoot and you went home that night, what were your first thoughts about being a real cover model?

      A: Actually, I didn’t wait until I got home that night. As I was leaving the photo studio in NYC this lady stopped me on the sidewalk and said “Hey, you look like one of those guys on the cover of a romance novel!” I smiled and could honestly say for the first time “I AM one of those guys!!!” I will never forget that moment…

      Q: Do you keep your hair long for covers or for you?

      A: It’s both. There are a million guys with short, dark hair and great bodies. If you want a long haired blond, I’m your man these days. I think when they use cheap wigs on the models it just looks fake. In my everyday life it just bothers so many people for some reason. I think I keep it long just to tick them off too. It’s just hair folks. Most people can grow it!

      Q: What does your mom think of your covers…and posing for Playgirl?

      A: My family never did understand my modeling career. My mother did say once “You should give up this modeling business. You’re not that good looking anyway, and I don’t know who ever told you, you were!” Ouch! She’s seen some of my covers and likes them, especially when her friends see them and ask about me. I never asked her permission about the Playgirl thing. I told my family about it afterward.

      UPDATE: The printed version of Playgirl went belly up a while back. I kid my cover bud, Julian Fantechi, who was their last “Man Of The Year” that he was the one who put them out of business. They are only on the internet now…

      Q: How long does a typical shoot take? Briefly tell us about one?

      A: Generally, any shoot in New York will take EXACTLY one hour. They have it down to an art there. For me, there are always a fan or fans blowing my hair around. I have to stand there and look “heroic.” Sucking in my gut and pushing out the pecs. Pretty standard stuff.

      Q: Today’s models are hot! Have you ever worked with the same model more than once? Any romance?

      A: On behalf or the men, thank you! I did 2 covers with the same girl, but we shot them both one right after each other. She was incredibly beautiful. Since I am from Ohio I am always out the door as soon as I’m finished shooting to catch a plane. The women are also out the door to their next shoot or go-see. It’s a business…Wish I could tell you something more juicy!

      Q: You have met some of the authors of the books you model for. Do any of them ever show up for a photo shoot?

      A: I’ve never had an author at a shoot. Then, again I’ve never visited an author when she was writing her book either.

      Q: I know you like to write, and I have heard you’re a pretty good writer. What kinds of things do you write? Are you published?

      A: People tell me they enjoy reading my work. Others can’t believe I wrote it! I have generally been writing autobiographical pieces. I’ve lived a very interesting and colorful life that people seem to enjoy reading about. I’ve been published in numerous magazines and newspapers. One of these days I’ll get that novel finished.

      Q: As a writer I always knew I wanted to write. Did you always feel it. Do you want to pursue a writing career?

      A: I just sort of fell into it in high school when I started writing articles for the local newspaper for pay. Then, in college my English professors would always comment on how they enjoyed reading my papers. I plan on pursuing more writing…

      Q: Can you share a little about your favorite story or article you’ve written?

      A: My favorite one was about my being in the first “Mr. Romance” contest many years ago. Originally, it was supposed to run in Playgirl magazine. But, the editor who asked me to write it got canned and so did the article, “Confessions Of A Male Beauty Contestant”. It’s still being shopped around for a possible movie deal. I just signed another contract for it recently.

      Q: C.J, you have a very nice physique. Okay, I really want say a SMOKING HOT body. What is your workout schedule like?

       

      A: Thanks for noticing! I workout 6 days per week. Breaking up the body parts. Legs one day, arms another, chest another. Abs and calves everyday. Cardio at least 3 times per week for 40 minutes.

      Thanks for noticing? Ahem… CJ…you’re welcome, sweetie.

      Q: Have you done other types of modeling?

      A: I think I’ve done every kind there is. I did the mainstream stuff years ago when my hair was short. For J.C. Penney’s and all that. I’ve also done hand and hair modeling. I even did a shoot for senior citizen’s support hose. They paid well.

      (Haha, C.J. you crack me up! 🙂 You’re just too adorable.)

      Q: Do you mainly work on your own or do you have an agent? Are you contracted by a publishing house?

      A: Most ALL of my work has been through networking. Agents in Ohio really have no idea what to do with me, but are more than happy to take 20% for taking a phone call. I am without an agent and get all my jobs from referrals.

      Q: I wanted you for the cover of my book, but my publisher used their own models. If someone is self publishing, or they suggest you for a cover how can an author or publisher contact you for a cover?

      A. I’ve always thought most publishers could care less who they put on the cover. If I charge the same amount as a model they usually use and I have a fan base that will sell more books WHY wouldn’t you use ME? It’s just stupid business on their part. I do more to promote the books I’m on than any other model I know too. That’s just smart business for me. I can be contacted several ways. My website, facebook, and if you ask around you’d be surprise how many people know me. I’ve been in the romance business for 17 years! I’m very reasonable, by the way! (More than 17 years now.)

      (I”m never giving up on having you on a cover.)

      Q: Would you ever pose nude or semi-nude for a cover?

      Myrra’s Choce, by Eve Jameson

      A: I’ve already posed nude for several covers and calendars, but all the “good stuff” was tastefully hidden. You really can’t sell a novel in Borders Book Stores with a nude man on he cover. The internet is a different story. There is one company that used a nude shot of me on several of their covers.

      Q: I love long hair on men. Is there anything that would get you to cut it?

      A: I think about cutting it all the time. I would never cut it for a photo shoot. If they can put long haired wigs on guys with short hair they can put a short haired wig on me! No plans to cut it anytime soon.

      Q: Do you read romance novels? Favorite movie?

      A: I’ve read some of the ones whose cover I’m on. They are written from a woman’s POV and men would never write it like that. I’ve read a few good ones… I have too many authors in the business who are friends of mine to say whose book is a favorite! I have several favorite movies. “Titanic“, the original B/W version with Clifton Web and Barbara Stanwyck. “The Birds” are favorites of mine…

      Q: Would you call yourself a romantic?

      A: I wouldn’t, but I have been told I am. I just do the “little things” that I don’t even consider a big deal only to find out later that they are. I used to make my own Valentine cards. Those always seemed go over well. The artist in me, I guess…

      (From what I know of you, C.J., I’d say you are a romantic.)

      Q: Have you ever considered acting?

      A: I have, but nobody’s ever asked me to! I’m open to the possibility.

      UPDATE: Any new radio, TV, Acting in the near future?

      A. I’m still doing a lot of radio interviews in Ohio. I may look into some acting when I’m in LA in April.

      Q: Most exotic place for a photo shoot?

      A: Probably for a calendar shoot I did in Florida. I shot naked in the Gulf of Mexico in waist deep water. It was my idea to shoot commando. Wearing a shirt in the water seemed stupid to me. I just kept waiting for the shark attack, though. The shots turned out great in the end.

      Q: How do you get in the mood for those hot and steamy covers?

      A: Yet another good question. I’ve never really thought about it. The outfits, if there is one, help. I just keep my chin up and hope for the best most of the time. The photographer can guide you along as you go too.

      Q: You were named “Fantasy Hunk Of 2001.″ How did you win, and how did it feel to win?

      A: Fans from all over the world voted. That’s what was so cool about it. I did get a lot of mileage over that title. LOL

      Q: Describe your Playgirl experience?

      A: I sent in some photos to them when my career was at a stand still. Who knew they would contact me within a week. It only took 2 years to get me in the magazine! It’s a very, very long story, but they’ve asked me to be a centerfold no less than 3 times and we always hit a snag. I was even on a TV show where I was supposed to be picked to be a centerfold. That didn’t work out either. I’m not dead yet. Maybe I can be in their Sexy Senior Citizen issue!

      NEWS: At the time of this writing, C.J. is back with Ellora’s Cave. Here is what he says:

      I recently have reconnected with Ellora’s Cave Publishing and was their guest of honor at their 10th anniversary celebration. It was quite a nice weekend and happened to be in my own backyard in Ohio. They flew me to

      Golden Adonis by Kate Hofman

      Florida to shoot several new covers. One of which was for owner/publisher, Jade Black’s first novel, “The Empress’ New Clothes” It was quite a HOT shoot. I have also done some more covers with Dark Castle Lords Publishing. I’ve done several great covers for Canadian author, Kate Hofman. She calls it her “Golden series”. All the heroes are blond. Woo hoo!

      Thank  you so much, C.J. for granting me this interview.  I’m sure my readers will love meeting you, and believe me, the pleasure was all mine! Happy Valentine’s Day.
