Paranormal Kitchen Activities - Week 4 - Very Best Chocolate Fudge Cake

Deep brown eyes pleaded with her.
“You know you can’t have chocolate, it’ll kill you.”
The black wolf gave a brisk shake, his thick fur standing on end as he splattered droplets of water up the wall forcing her to step back out of range of the shower he’d obliged her with.
“Now, that’s sheer naughtiness. You’re going to have to clean that up yourself, I’m too busy with this wedding cake. Last layer. Then I can decorate it. That’s where the real fun starts.”
A pitiful whine came from the huge beast in the corner.
“No. You’ll have to wait. But this is a quick one, then I promise, we’ll go play in the snow.”
His long pink tongue lolled out of his mouth, his nutmeg eyes darkened.
“You might want to change.”
Damn, but he wasn’t going to do that. He loved to romp in the snow in his wolf form.


She quickly blended cocoa in boiling water, added the remaining ingredients and mixed them by hand, aware it made her breasts jiggle as she beat it to a thick, smooth batter. She noted the indecision in the wolf’s eyes as he watched her. Maybe they wouldn’t be going for a walk. She smothered her pleased grin.


She divided the mixture into the two prepared tins and slid them into the oven, following up with a quick glance at her watch. Thirty minutes. They only had thirty minutes.
She turned on her heel, a broad smile spreading at the sight of the tall, black haired man standing naked in the corner of the room, his body slicked with water, his melting chocolate eyes full of promise.
“Thirty minutes. No time for romping in the snow.”
He reached for her and she met him half way.


The Recipe
 I can tell you that this most divine recipe comes from Mary Berry. I have a number of her baking books, but this has to be one of the easiest, most scrumptious recipes. Here’s a link to Lifestyle.co.uk and Mary Berry’s Very Best Chocolate Fudge Cake.

PASSIONATE HISTORY - LIBBY WATERFORD

Hi Libby it’s lovely to meet you and congratulations on your new release PASSIONATE HISTORY.  I’m really pleased you have brought Professor Worthy *strokes the sleeve of his jacket*  with you. Pull up a chair, grab a coffee and please excuse me while I *sigh, takes another stroke of his arm* …ask, Aidan (I can call you Aidan can’t I?) some questions. Aidan, it’s lovely to meet you. Uh, thanks, Diane, it’s lovely to be here. Can you tell me how you first felt when you met Bree? Bree was a breath of fresh air – young, vibrant, and enthusiastic about learning about Italian Renaissance art—my speciality. Was she one of your students? Er, yes, she was in my class the last semester of her senior year. Then we lost touch for a while, but she found me again at her five-year reunion. You must have young women *gulp, touches Aidan’s arm yet again* throwing themselves at you all the time. How do you deal with that on a professional basis? Well, I don’t…I mean, I hav

DS Jenna Morgan Series - Inspiration, Writing & Research

What comes first when I create a story? – Part 2   It’s a strange thing but when I write romance, no one ever asks me what my inspiration for writing the story is. I’m not sure if that’s because they’re frightened of the answer because it might involve … shhh … sex, but I can tell you far more people are interested in your desire to kill. So I gave some thought to my inspiration to write Someone’s There (originally titled Copycat) and I can honestly say that killing off nurses has absolutely no connection to the fact that my youngest daughter is in her final year of her nursing degree. No connection at all… Someone’s There is dedicated to my dad who would have been 100 years old in February 2020, the same month as the book’s release. My dad was a quiet hero. He fought in World War II and we grew up believing the stories he told us were just that. Stories of battles and hand to hand combat. Rescues in the dead of night. But it turned out they were all true. He’d actually been

Valentine's Day Gift Hop

Image
I'm really pleased you've decided to drop in and visit me at this most romantic time of year. It probably means you've got everything arranged for Valentine's Day ... Yes?? Well you should - and quickly - we don't need any little faux pas do we? I remember such a faux pas when I first started dating my now husband.  Valentine's Day - seven months after we had first started dating each other. This was an important day in my mind and being young and with high expectations, I was delighted when the doorbell rang and I had a delicate single silk red rose in a beautiful white satin box, delivered from the florist. Ah, I was overjoyed. A single red rose - from a secret admirer. As my heartthrob arrived at my front door later that evening, I flung myself in his arms, kissed him wildly and thanked him for my gorgeous silk rose. The frozen silence was a small hint, then he pulled a lovely real red rose from behind his back and handed it to me.
