TGIS peeps!
Ever have one of those weeks where one disaster happens after another?!? Yeah…this was one of those for me. One of my favorite remedies other than throwing a temper tantrum at the world is to grab a favorite book, and just escape for a while. I let the author transport me somewhere else, anywhere else, and it makes me feel better.
We’re nearing the end of our look at Sexy Sentences from “Gabriel’s Inferno” by Sylvain Reynard, and we’re ever closer to the release of the sequel. That my friends is a good thing 
Let’s go take a look at the sentences I picked for you today…
“I never know whether you’re going to be sweet and whisper something that takes my breath away or say something so fucking mean it breaks my…”
“I am a good lover, Julianne, in all senses of the word.”
“As soon as I touched you I knew…and when I touched you again…I remembered you.”
She just gave in, licking, and sucking and moving…
“I’m not going to allow another man to put his hands on you, and that includes Paul and any other Angelfucker out there.”
But snuggled in his arms the night before, a wave of emotion had crashed over her, and all her little defences were carried out to sea like a toppled sandcastle.
She was barely covered and damp from the shower, and the sight of the two together…he twitched.
He fluttered his mouth with soft kisses down to the hollow at the center of her throat and pressed his lips there firmly, beginning his sojourn up and down the right side of her neck.
“Perhaps I’m trying to indicate that if I am this attentive with respect to your culinary longings, I’ll be even more attentive with respect to satisfying other- ah- appetites.”
Gabriel sighed with contentment at the soft warmth of the young woman he treasured in his arms, his nose buried in long, soft, vanilla-scented hair.
It was a good distraction, for it stopped her from thinking about Saturday morning and what Gabriel looked like under his clothes, wet from the shower, dropping a small, purple towel…
“Panting, twisting, touching, yearning, giving, and finally and most gloriously, coming.”
“He’s worried she’ll stand up and throw her bra at him, or hold up an ‘I heart Emerson’ poster.”
As soon as she removed her pashmina, a pair of jealous blue eyes darted across the table, hungrily taking in her newly exposed skin before making a hasty retreat.

Don’t you just love a great sentence? Yeah…me too!
Tamie Xo
Love them!!!
I had forgotten about the ‘I heart Emerson’ sign! Classic!
That would make a great t-shirt wouldn’t it?!? Hmmm…*begins plotting*
Nice start to my day! Thanks girls!
SR leaves me speechless. **dreamy sigh**
Me too…sometimes I just wish I could call him and say…”My God SR, that sentence/paragraph/scene is just effing brilliant”
Btw, I *flove* the banner for the Sexy Sentence Saturday!!!!
Thanks! I flove it too. Anya did such a great job of designing it!
I came across a sentence you posted a few posts back. The light bulb went off
. Looking forward to getting to this batch…
Oooo…next time tell me which one. LOL! Obviously, I always pick sentences that “speak” to me, but I have several that are absolute favorites
(One can only imagine Gabriel’s reaction to that suggestion, but it ran along the lines of no fucking way.)
O…you came back ((((hugs u)))) thanks. Here are 2 of my most favorite from the first post…
He smelled of Laphroaig and something distinctively Gabrielian and potentially dangerous.
His eyes hardened into two icy blue jewels, and his voice cooled to the temperature of water gliding over a glacier.
Yeah, great picks, T! My 45 minutes on the treadmill went by way too fast today as I was reading…
You multi-tasker you. That’s what I should do…read while exercising…probably not gonna happen tho.
I’ll be posting a review as well, and I haven’t decided which one will post 1st yet.
FYI…Monday will be a new Book Blogger Confessions. I know you enjoy those
Yay! Yes, I do love those posts AND your reviews. Thanks for the heads up.
Aww thanks…then you might be happy to know that I’ll probably be reviewing more than I normally do this month… O’O
Really? That’s awesome! Big chunk o’ time opened up or so many great reads? Definitely our gain, whichever it is!
No to the time thing, but lots of books to be shared, so I’ll find a way
Like I said, our gain.
I read on the treadmill as well & boy does the time fly, especially when I was reading this book…I’d find myself on the treadmill for almost 2 hours because I didn’t want to stop reading!
Hmm…I’m really gonna have to try the reading while treadmilling thing!
“I am a good lover, Julianne, in all senses of the word.” *squirms*
I just loooove these. SR def has a beautiful way with words!
Yes he certainly does…sometimes peeps don’t get it when I say that I am often moved to the point of weeping by his writing…so it’s gratifying to me when others understand.
