Two Lovers for MollyTwo Lovers for Molly by Lynn LaFleur
Book 3 of Lavender Lace Series

Blurb

A chance meeting with Julian Forrest changes Molly Ross’ mind about her bad luck with men. Julian is not only gorgeous, but intelligent and charming. Finally, her luck with men has changed.

Julian loves the sexy underwear Molly buys at a store called Lavender Lace that makes his mouth water every time they make love. It takes less than a week for him to know he’s falling in love with her.

Then Lane Edison comes back into Julian’s life. Despite being apart for a year, one kiss from the handsome man and Julian tumbles. He wants both Molly and Lane, but doesn’t know how that can happen…until he reads a threesome scene in a book Molly is writing.

Molly loves Julian, yet feels an instant attraction when she meets Lane. Discovering the two men were once lovers is a huge turn-on for her. When Julian suggests a ménage a trois, she’s more than willing for the two men to fulfill all her fantasies.

    Merlot is a happy sort of purple.

    I love the name Julian.

    Nessa, I think Merlot counts as purple.

    Lynn – where did you get the idea for your Lavender Lace series?

    How interesting, Lynn. I love all the different shades you can find in the purple family. My main website is even purple!

    I have to ask other writers if they listen to music while writing. So? Inquiring minds want to know. Happy TT!

    It’s hard to believe there are that many shades of a non-primary color. No wonder men get so confused, LOL! (My husband can’t differentiate between pink and purple, so he REALLY gets confused.)

    The book sounds delish, Lynn! Wishing you many happy sales.

    I didn’t know it was possible to come up with 13 synonyms for purple.

    Lynn, this book sounds really yummy! Adding it to my wishlist over @ EC.
    I like amethyst, the stone, because it comes in so many different shades. I’ve never seen another stone that comes in so many variations.

    Purple has always been my favorite color. I love the deep, dark eggplant color the best. I drool every time I see it!

    Thanks for all the nice comments about my book. I had such a good time writing this series. Shelley asked where I got the idea for the series. Actually, I was browsing Amazon one day (the books section, of course) and I saw a book titled Purple Panties. That got my brain to whirling and viola! My Lavender Lace series was born.

    When I think of purple, the first thing that comes to mind is purple prose. The purple-headed love lance is my favorite.

    Cool!! I love all the color names. I collect stuff like that, so this is wonderful. Thanks!

    I love purple (you’d only have to peak at my website to see) and really like the name of this series. Sounds like a hot read, too!

    Amethyst is my birthstone so I’ve always liked the color purple.

    Hmm, purple? I’ve grown Japanese egg plant in my garden that’s purple and barbecued it.

    Yummy.

    Good luck with your book series.

    I love the color purple and use to only write with pens with purple ink. My niece has painted two different bedrooms purple a really light shade that turned out beautiful. She was 8 years old the first time they asked her what color she wanted for her room and she insisted on purple everyone thought it would be awful but it was so pretty.

    In Japan we have many names for the colour purple depending on the shades. We have Ayame-iro (iris), Edomurasaki, Kyo-murasaki, Fuji-iro (wisteria), and many more. Really colourful!

    Your Lavender Lace series sounds great. Congrats on your release, Two Lovers for Molly. I enjoyed the blurb and the cover is yummy. Congrats!

    I love purple flowers but I’m not a fan of the color. There are differnet shades of purple that I love and my favorite plant is lavender, its purple. Do you outline your plots when you work on a story and if you do what style do you use… great book it sounds great, I can’t wait to read it…

    All the colors in the purple family are really pretty. I like Iris and heather.
    I love the series name Lavender Lace. Very sexy. And I definitely have to read all the books so far. Congrats on this latest release.

    I’m flattered I made the top of the list, though to be honest, I’m actually more a pinkish beige owing to it being summer and the fact I start to burn after only five minutes in the sun.

    Seriously, purple has never been one of my favorite colors (despite it being one of our HS colors), though several friends claim it as their favorite.

    Oh, and I have to point this out, as it is a major peeve, but “viola” is either a small purple flower or a musical instrument. “Voila” is the French equivelent of the English “Ta-da!”

    Hope you both have a GREAT weekend!

    Purple just happens to be my fave color. The shade I like best I call royal purple. A nice deep purple. Not one of those pinkish shades, not pale, but not so dark as to look almost black.
