Hi, all,
I’m Mickie Sherwood. I love to create sweet-to-sensual mainstream contemporary relationship-based, romantic, love stories. I just look around my little piece of the world and a story plot appears right before this baby boomer’s eyes.
Thanks to Sweet Sample Saturday for this opportunity to share a blurb from my upcoming release. Thanks to you for being interested enough to check me out at Mickie’s Mutterings.
Now, I’m so excited to premiere the book cover for my new romantic love story. Beautiful Veronica Torres and cowboy trucker Mike Masterson are mature adults who don’t hit it off—at first sight—in Cutie and the Cowboy Trucker.
Coming September 2012
Genre: African-American/Bookstrand Mainstream/Contemporary romance
Preliminary Blurb:
Widow Veronica Torres needs something desperately—invisibility. Escaping the clutches of her conniving brother-in-law and traveling incognito in the RV she traded for online sets her on a collision course with her new destiny, and a barreling fiery red 18-wheeler.
Trucker Mike Masterson steams at the close call. First, he nearly sideswipes her. Now, she ends up at the same rest stop with mechanical trouble. Maybe, she deserves to sweat it out in the June heat since she has the attention span the size of a pea. But, the child in her company deserves better. What else can Mike do besides cart them to his garage for repairs?
Will their burgeoning relationship ignite more fireworks than the upcoming Fourth of July celebration? Or will the sparks of six nights and seven days of summertime sizzle—fizzle to an end?
My edits are finished. So, stay tuned for the thrilling story excerpt very soon.

Hi, Carrie-Anne,
Thanks. I love the cover. Isn’t it amazing how little insignificant happenings can bring on big life-altering changes? That’s what happened to Veronica and Mike.

What a unique way for a hero and heroine to meet! I have a feeling that the heat isn’t only from the weather.

Sometimes it is a toss-up as to what causes the sizzle.
