Hey #booksky, It's almost the weekend, and @sadirastone.bsky.social is stirring things up with us for #FridaySmooch!! This week's word is ARGUE and I decided to give y'all a little sneak peek at book 4!
Image is a book snippet. The background is a neutral warm gray. At the top in a black stylized font reads: #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold black serif font and reads: His shoulders relaxed. “I guess I should be grateful you wanna see me again.” “You’re the one who left us.” A bitter smile turned his lip. “Nah, darlin’, we both know you left us first.” He waited a beat, but when I didn’t ARGUE the point, he shrugged and backed away. ©2026 Season of the Witch: Almost Like Magic (book 4)

It's a more somber #fridaysmooch this week, and @sadirastone.bsky.social picked the perfect word. If you have a snippet to share, please do!

*****

This is how you very politely say 'maybe later' to a minor Celtic smithing god...

Image is a book snippet. The background is a sunset (maybe sunrise?) showing only the sky, a rich, soft blue most of the way up, and a pale salmony orange at the bottom. At the top in black reads #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold black serif font and reads: “I have a couple classic beauties in the garage that I tinker with, just for myself. Ye wouldn't want to go for a ride, would you?” Goibhniu sounded wistful. And I realized that's what I’d noticed earlier: loneliness. “It would be an HONOR, but I think my companions are in a hurry. May I request a rain check?” If I survive the next few days. ©2021 Bad Company: Almost Like Magic (book 1)

Hey #booksky it's #fridaysmooch time! Thank you as always to @sadirastone.bsky.social for giving us a lil KISS this week...

Here's a very short but cute teaser from Season of the Witch, coming out later this year! One name redacted for spoilers!

Share your snippet below or quote share!
Image is a book snippet teaser. The background is a lilac purple. At the top in a black scripty font says: #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold black serif font and says: Mikey grabbed her hand, planting a chivalrous kiss on her knuckles. “Thanks!” “Keep it sexy, hot stuff.” “Like I could be any other way,” Mikey said. ©2026 Season of the Witch: Almost Like Magic (book 4)

“What are you doing, Jessick?” His voice came out raw.
“Having a word,” I rasped.
“And what’s the word, Jessick?” His dark eyes bore into me, and I swallowd hard. Rik Drake was too damned handsome in his eyeliner and rock star glam, and I was sick to death of pretending I didn’t want this man. I had intended to dress him down for his behavior, and now I just wanted to undress him. He smashed his lips into mine, and I was surrounded by him, unable to pull away. His mouth didn’t taste of wine. Just of him, like the one time I had kissed him, with the want, and need, and the inevitability of crushing into the one man I wanted most in the world.

Hello and welcome to #fridaysmooch! Thank you @sadirastone.bsky.social for SIZZLE this week!

Perhaps not the kind of sizzle you get from reading romance (and you should 100% check out Sadira's books!!!) but hey, fantasy author here 😈

#booksky #fantasyseries #booksnippet #supernaturalfans
Image is a book snippet graphic. The background is a graduated teal blue, starting brighter on the left and getting darker toward the right. At the top in a scripty black font reads #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold black serif font and reads: This was not like my beloved uncle. I slipped a hand into my pocket and pulled out a small flask, splashing him with holy water, anxiously waiting for either a demonic SIZZLE or his annoyance if I was wrong. “Was that really necessary?” he sighed, wiping the side of his face with his sleeve. “If you’re not possessed, you’re acting like it. I’m not sorry for checking,” I said. ©2021 Bad Company: Almost Like Magic (book 1)

And somehow it's #fridaysmooch time again! Where did the week go??? This week we're LONGING thanks to @sadirastone.bsky.social

Here's a snippet from Bad Company, when maybe the enemies aren't hating each other so much anymore...
Screen capture of a snippet from my urban fantasy novel Bad Company. It reads: He stared into me—the way only he had ever been able to do—until whatever battled raged inside came to a sudden peace. Beneath my awkward, provocative position, he relaxed. The lines around his eyes softened, his breathing slowed. A smile formed, one devoid of any cockiness or snark. The one he'd always saved for me. I returned the smile, knowing it was the one that belonged to him, and him alone. I felt whole for the first time since I was twelve, a puzzle with its long-missing piece finally in place. A teasing whisper reached out to my mind. A LONGING I hadn’t realized existed, now fulfilled

Here's this week's #FridaySmooch word from @sadirastone: EMBRACE! I picked a middle of a scene, no context bit from my upcoming Season of the Witch: Almost Like Magic (book 4). No fancy graphic this week... read past the snippet for why... (1)

One of my favorite characters in the Trappers Cove Romance Series is Zora, fortuneteller, witchy healer, and crystal peddlar who has an esoteric remedy for any problem. In Love, Legacy, and Little Green Aliens, can a little bath magic lift a family curse?

#booksky! It's #fridaysmooch time! Thanks as always to the lovely @sadirastone.bsky.social for making us all ✨SPARKLE✨ this week

All of the mentions of sparkle in Season of the Witch were waaaaaay to spoilery, so this is from Against the Wind.

#fantasybooks #fantasyreaders #urbanfantasy
Image is a book graphic. The background is pale blue with star shaped confetti-glitter scattered across it. The glitter is silver, darker blue, and purple. In a scripty black font reads: #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold black serif font and reads: Winter air chilled my cheeks as soon as I stepped outside, and I zipped my heavy coat all the way to my nose. Thankfully, the winds remained still and sunlight SPARKLEd on the snow, reminding me of the glitter incident involving an imp when I was about eight. ©2023 Against the Wind: Almost Like Magic (book 2)

I was off for a few weeks on vacation and though the UK and Scotland are lovely it's good to be home! Here's this week's #fridaysmooch from @sadirastone.bsky.social

Image is a book snippet. The background is a muted photo of ocean waves as if you were looking down on them from above. At the top in a black font reads #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold black serif font and reads: Another “lucky” roll of the red die and Cole pulled up to a motel on the outskirts of Detroit. He turned around and stared angrily at me for a good ten seconds, and I knew better than to argue about sharing a room, no matter that I'd saved him from being smote by a god. I sighed and gathered my bag, shuffling along behind Mikey into my Hell for the night: a harmless OCEAN themed room, complete with nets and plastic fish on the walls. ©2021 Bad Company: Almost Like Magic (book 1)

Thank you to @sadirastone.bsky.social for this week's RELEASE for #FridaySmooch!

(and you should definitely read her swoony, spicy books!)

#booksnippet #urbanfantasy #booksky
Image is a book snippet graphic. The background is a soft teal with orb-like circles in blues and pinks (kind of looks like effervescent bubbles). At the top in a marker-like font in black says #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold black serif font and reads: The bright orb pulsed, faster and faster, flooding my prison with the brightness of a thousand colliding stars. Instead of love, instead of safety and comfort, sharp pain shot through my heart, pulling at every nerve ending until I begged for RELEASE from this nightmare. ©2021 Bad Company: Almost Like Magic, book 1

It's #fridaysmooch time! @sadirastone.bsky.social has provided us with POWER this week!!! Here's another lil sneak peek from Season of the Witch, book 4 (coming out later this year!!) (1/2)

AND... (see reply)
Image is a book snippet. The background is black with a red lightning bolt shooting from upper right to lower left. At the top in white font reads: #FridaySmooch. The snippet is in a bold white serif font and reads: I squinted but couldn’t see anything except darkness. Abnormal darkness. The lights lining the edge of the park didn’t pool on the ground like they should, instead ending abruptly, with harsh lines in one spot. I reached out with my mind, but sensed only the low thrum of gentle, natural power, nothing wild like the ley lines that threaded under Eight-Fold Acres. The POWER shivered at my inquisitive poke, but didn’t react. Still, there was a blank space in the middle of the darkness. Something, or someone, was there. Hiding. ©2026 Season of the Witch: Almost Like Magic, book 4

“You ghosted me.” His powerful chest rises and falls. “Why?” I suppress a groan. “We’ve got more important matters to—” “No.” He whips his gaze to mine. “You want my cooperation? I want answers, Lilith. Lilah. Whoever the hell you are.”
