The Virgin Club
by Kayley Wood
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Contemporary Romance

BLURB:
Challenge: Lose my virginity before my 24th birthday. Time Left:
23 days.
Appletinis,
a semi-meltdown, and a ‘Lose My Virginity Challenge’ post. That's all it took
for my little blog to go viral.
I’m
going to be fine. I’m anonymous. I can just delete the post and pretend it
never happened. No big deal, right?
Wrong!
My
co-worker crush, Logan—gorgeous, yummy and out of my league—found out about my
secret deadline-driven cherry popping quest.
Humiliated would be
an understatement.
Fortunately,
my besties come to the rescue with a brilliant plan that involves my trending
blog. If all went smoothly, I'd not only win over the untouchable Logan but
also live my dream of becoming a full-time writer.
The
plan isn’t just brilliant, it's perfect… until my new boss, Alexander Freeman
comes into the picture with his Brooks Brothers suit and Tom Ford briefcase.
So
what if the Stiff is hot? I will not ruin my one chance with Logan or my dream
career.
But I'm in more
trouble than I originally thought.
Turns
out Alex has a few intentions of his own and a huge secret I'm totally
unprepared for.

EXCERPT TWO:
David
and I walked down the hallway toward the conference room, Maria and Claire
trailing behind us.
“Have
you noticed what’s trending on Twitter right now?” David asked.
“No.
I’ve been absorbed in the Moonstorm Press account. Anything interesting?”
“Very,”
David leaned in closer and whispered. “Apparently there is a
twenty-three-year-old virgin out there who is set on cashing in her V-card
before her twenty-fourth birthday.”
A
cold sweat started to form under my arms. This was not good. I let out an
over-exaggerated laugh. “Why would something that stupid be trending?”
David
smirked. “A twenty-three-year-old virgin sharing her sexual escapades like it’s
her diary for the entire world to see? This is the next viral thing. Mark my
words.”
Viral?
No. My blog was not going viral. I had to delete that post the moment I got
home. Maybe even the entire blog.
“Are
you talking about The Virgin Club?” Maria caught up beside David and her eyes
lit up like she was ready for some juicy gossip.
Yup,
I will never drink and post again.
“Yes!”
David said. “Have you read any of it?”
“Some,
but the site kept crashing, but thankfully someone posted some screenshots on
Instagram. Did you see her goal for the first week?”
I
wanted to sink through the floor and disappear. The last thing I needed was my
work colleagues talking about my sex life—or lack thereof.

Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds really awesome, I can't wait to check it out. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteAwww, thanks Victoria. <3
DeleteI hope you like the full story just as much. *crosses fingers* ;)
I would love to read your book.
ReplyDeleteHi Bridgett, So happy to hear you liked the blurb and excerpt! If you have Kindle Unlimited, you can borrow for free. I hope you enjoy it! :)
DeleteWhat was your inspiration for the story? Congratulations on the release.
ReplyDeleteHi Bernie, thanks for the congrats! Great question - someone else had asked me the same question on another blog, so I'll tell you what I told them. :)
DeleteWhen I started the project, I wanted to do something that was a cross between a young, modern Bridget Jones’s Diary and a softer, female version of American Pie.
Another part I really wanted to get across was the bonds women can have. Someone else told me that the friendship of the characters reminded them of a young Sex and the City. I take that as a compliment for sure.
Next, I plot it out in an outline… but I almost always change things up as I go along. There is a point in my writing where the characters and story sort of writes itself (I love when that happens!) In fact, the big surprise twist in the story wasn’t planned in the beginning. :)
Hope you like it!
Did you help design the cover? Congrats on the release.
