"Mona's Second Chance" 09/5

Hey everyone! I'm excited to bring you another snippet from "Mona's Second Chance"! I think these two are so good together, even if they don't realize it--yet! Enjoy!
As you may recall, when we last left off Mona had called Colby to come to her rescue after forgetting to put gas in her car--again!!! Last time, he'd promised a spanking if she ever wasted his time like that again! Do you think he's going to follow through?

He turned to me, his face hard. His eyes were glinting in the dark like diamonds when he looked at me, and I instantly recognized the determination in them. “We need to talk.”

My body tensed up, preparing to fight or flee, I didn’t know which. “Can’t we do that on the way to the gas station?”

“No, we can’t. We have some things we need to settle.”

 I inched my hand to the door handle, ready to pop it open at any second. “What things?”

“This desire you seem to have to waste my time, and making me worry for nothing. What did I tell you would happen the next time?”

My entire body heated up, because of course I remembered exactly what he’d said and
how I’d responded to it at the time. Still, I knew enough to be afraid. 

Again, a tad bit long. Sorry, guys! Hope you enjoyed the snippet this week! Don't forget that "Mona's Second Chance" is now on sale. Get yours by visiting Blushing Books or clicking on the picture below. And remember to check out the other snippets below--I know I will be!

“We need to talk.” Those words never lead to anything good. Unless your reading a spanking romance. Read Mona... Love Mona and Colby's second chance. Good Luck, Dinah!

I really like- 'His eyes were glinting in the dark like diamonds when he looked at me, and I instantly recognized the determination in them.'
I know I'd be a bit fearful if a guy was looking at me like that.
Excellent description of his anger and his tension.
Great Job, Dinah!

Yes, the dreaded "talk"...if only it involved talking and nothing else. :) Nice shivers. Lovely cover, too.

I think he has more in mind than talking! LOL.

Do all men talk with their hands these days? Hope so. "What did I tell you would happen..." another frightening question, especially if she actually has to say. Enjoyed the snippet.

Now that is naughty leaving us on a cliffhanger like that Dinah!
Really nice set up...I want to see the next couple of lines too though, does she answer? and I'm pretty sure he's going to follow through.

Mmm, I loved that, Dinah!
You have such a way of expressing things, that makes me feel like I am right there!
And I was definitely shaking in my boots!

I can't wait to see what happens next!!
Great job!

Fight or flee with her fingers on the door handle. Been there, done that. Wonderful snippet, Dinah, and I agree these two belong together. Definitely need to check this book out further.

We need to talk. Yeah. That's what they say. So why are they the only ones doing the talking and we're the ones doing the yelping? Love the snippet, Dinah!
