\"\"<\/a>Hello <\/span>Snippeteers!<\/span><\/p>\n

This is my first snip for this year. I submitted the fifth book in my Rowan House series, Double Six, on Friday and I’m snuggled in with the snow and noodling my next book. I hope wherever you are you are safe and warm.<\/span><\/p>\n

From Double Six:<\/span><\/p>\n

Petra trailed her fingers over the stocks set into the floor. She paused beside the newest addition to the dungeon. A <\/span>large polished wine cask mounted on its side, adorned with cuffs and chains to secure submissives over its wide curved surface. She drummed her fingers on the cask. \u201cVictor’s Vineyard. I know this winery. I had no idea they offered anything besides wine.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThey don’t. It’s a gift from a former client and her submissives. They commissioned it.\u201d Elaine shifted in her chair and crossed her legs.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cShe must have been very grateful.\u201d Petra stopped next to <\/span>an iron and wooden device resting against the wall. She side-eyed the antique torture cabinet. \u201cAn iron maiden?\u201d Petra rested her hand on her hip and quirked her mouth at Elaine. \u201cReally?\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cJust for the head fuck aspect, it’s not functional. I’ve considered having it modified so I could use it for seclusion. But my sister insists it would destroy its value as an antique. Pity.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Petra sauntered to the top of the polished wood whipping post and drew her fingers over the top of the post. \u201cThis is fantastic.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Rainbow Snippets( https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/groups\/RainbowSnippets\/<\/a>)is a group for LGBTQ+ authors, readers, and bloggers to gather once a week to share six sentences from a work of fiction\u2013a WIP or a finished work or even a 6-sentence book recommendation (no spoilers please!).<\/p>\n

In this group, you’ll find anything from romance and historical fiction to mystery and YA. The common thread is that every story\u2019s main character identifies as LGBTQ+. The snippets could range from zero flames to full-on sexytimes, anything goes content-wise. The only rule is snippets will be 6 sentences long\u2013one for each color in the Pride flag.<\/p>\n
