--------------------
1) I loved to read so much I often skipped school to read. It was mostly romance novels. I read the Harlequins then and I can fool some people into thinking I am well traveled. lol

2) I often predict future events of people who are close to me. For instance I told my husband one night that if he ever cut his finger at work to put it in a baggie on ice. A couple of weeks later...yep he lost his middle finger to the first knuckle. Put it on ice but they were unable to save it. So I was mostly right.

3) Ice cream is my weakness! I am on weight watchers and have not had ice cream in a month. Torture!

4) I have a knack for remembering bits and pieces of info from tv shows. I often give people info from shows like 20/20 from years and years ago.

5) I HATE horror movies. I have not watched one since I was about fourteen.

6) I leave the shower curtain halfway open when showering.

i will add the tagged peiple later :)

Traci Flowers
Chapter 1


Adam Ramiro leaned against the wall of his family’s chocolate factory , watching as chocolate was poured into heart shaped molds. For fifty years the Ramiro family had been making handmade one of a kind chocolate’s.

The twenty floor empolyees were busy finishing up for the night. In just a few minutes the companie’s Director of Innovations, Hayleigh Traylor, would walk through the employee entrance of the small white stuco building.

Anticipation built as he waited for the one woman who’d dared to kiss him senseless, then promptly ran...twice.

He’d never kissed a woman whom he’d not been to bed with soon after. All women wanted to go to bed with him it seemed, Hayleigh was special though. Oh he wanted her, so much his nightly dreams made him wake up hard and aching. He also wanted to know her though. He wanted to know what her favorite flower was, what kind of movies she liked, and what side of the bed she wanted when they slept together.

But first he needed to get the woman to stop running everytime they shared a kiss.

He checked his watch once more, smiling as he heard the employee entrance beep as the door opened. Her tennis shoes sounded squeaky on the concrete floor. As usual her footsteps were hurried. Always in a hurry, that was Hayleigh Traylor all right. She’d even kissed him in a hurry, he would teach her though to slow down and enjoy things more.

She stepped into the nearby wash room to wash her hands and slip on the white coveralls that were mandatory in the small factory.

Adam soaked in the sight of her through the double paned windows. She wore a pink tank top tonight. He could not see her from the waist down, but he knew she was pulling the uniform over her long rounded legs. He watched in sweet agony as she straightened and did a little shimmy, pulling her arms through the long sleeves. He groaned, forced to shift his weight in growing arousal as she tucked and patted her large lush breasts. He blew out a breath as she finally zipped the uniform up.

Damn she made him horny as hell. He was thirty-two and getting hard watching a woman put on a factory uniform. How did she do this to him?

What was it about this shy woman that drove him absolutely crazy with lust?

They fit together perfect. She was just one inch shy of his six foot putting their bodies in perfect alignment. Her long wavy auburn hair was always shiny and soft looking. Her dark brown eyes fringed in dark long lashes. And her mouth...oh god her mouth was as ripe and plump as a fresh strawberry. The things he imagined her doing to him with that mouth.

And the way she kissed. She kissed him as if she could devour him. He wanted more of those thrilling kisses, he wanted everything she had to give...and then he wanted more.

She was the total package to him. Brains, smoking hot body and a heart of gold. Strangely enough she did not even know her own appeal. Her Marilyn Monroe figure was not appreciated in today’s society, so she hid behind baggy clothes. She couldn’t hide though in the ‘Chocolate Vision’s’ uniform.

He’d had nightly fantasies of slowly unzipping her while she was nude underneath. God he wanted to see her naked. After a year of her working here, he was ready to step up his game with her.

She stepped out of the wash room and onto the factory floor waving goodbye to the day shift employees as they left. They were alone now as she was the only night employee for the small business. She was talking to herself as she punched in, but he only caught the last part of it. "...think of kissing that man, just do the taste testing, do your reports and go home."

Smiling at the way she grumbled, he pushed away from the wall. She was so freaking cute, especially when she was talking about him. He had no doubts their kiss last week still had her in a tizzy.

"What man aren’t you going to kiss Hayleigh?"

She whipped around, eyes wide and startled. Her hand went to her heart, her breathing increased. Damn. Watching her breathing heavy was going to cause his own palpitations. Her luscious tits rose and fell. God he wanted to touch her there.

Holding up his hands in apology he stepped near, trying not to drop his eyes again. "Sorry, it’s tasting day so I thought you’d be expecting me."

"I was...expecting you that is. I just thought you would be here after I had the tasting room ready." she replied.

Adam smiled, and lied through his teeth. "I had to stay late anyway. I thought I would help you set up." Of course he really just couldn’t wait to see her.

For a moment she stared at him in silence. He tried not to smile as her gaze zeroed in on his mouth, her expression full of longing.

"Well, I hope your hungry and ready to taste tonight." She said, all innocence.

He growled under his breath in erotic frustration. Damn her words had him go rock hard in want. "Oh yes, I am ready to taste y...uh, yes I’m ready."

Hayleigh popped a hand on a rounded hip, looked to say something but changed her mind. He watched her generous ass as she turned walking to the room temperature sample cooler. He felt pathetic as he walked behind her, almost panting like a dog after a bone.

Adam helped to set up the small tasting room that held one long conference table and two functional chairs, and a small fridge. He set up sliced apples and bread to clear their palate, and glasses of iced water. He was careful to make sure to set the chairs close at one end of the long table. His senses went on overload as she walked into the room. The heady combination of Hayleigh and chocolate had his nostrils flaring in appreciation. "How many samples tonight Hayleigh?"

"Four. Two are new products and the other two are quality control." She sat down looking to him to do the same.

They both took a small bite of apple and a drink of water. Adam tried not to stare at her soft pale fingers as she picked up the first sample. Hayleigh broke it in half listening carefully. "The snap on this sample is not the best Adam."

"Not enough tempering?" he asked.

She shook her head. "I believe it’s the cocoa, the grade is at sixty-five percent in this sample."

As she started to rub a piece, he cursed his jeans that were getting tighter by the second under the coveralls. Her rubbing had the treat’s aroma rise between them. The smells and thoughts of her rubbing him made him crazy with wanting her.

"This smells nice and spicy." she said, looking him in the eyes finally. Time froze and he gently leaned towards her. The aroma of Hayleigh and chocolate filled his senses, and without thinking he opened his mouth to take the sample from her fingers.

"Oh yes Hayleigh, very spicy." he let the chocolate melt in his mouth and pressed his mouth to hers to share the taste.

How to romance your partner

In honor of Valentine's Day I wanted to blog about how to be romantic with your partner.


I think it is a myth that men do not want or appreciate romance from the woman in their life, and that men should do all the romancing. I know my hubby feels appreciated when I do something romantic for him or with him.


Knowing my husband like I do I know he appreciates when I make a romantic meal. Here is one of our favorites to share together.









Here is a great menu from epicurious.com, fairly easy and super yummy!

After dinner how about treating him to a mixed drink and a movie you both can love.





Passionate Kiss coctail









A favorite movie for hubby and I is Jerry Maguire, what could be better than sports for him, and romance for me. Woot!





After dinner how about treating him to a massage, when he recprocates you have the start of some great extended foreplay!


And last but not least read him some erotica! This is a great way to introduce him to one of your fantasies in a safe way. And speaking of erotica, keep watching my blog for my first chapter of my new work in progress, there is chocolate involved!
