Get Permanently Legless–Free!

Jan. 17th, 2012 at 1:14 PM

Only half the man he used to be—but maybe that's enough
The Taliban may have taken both Chris's legs, but he came back from Afghanistan with his sense of humour and his lust for life firmly intact. The one thing that can shake his confidence is meeting Josh, the one-night stand from before his tour of duty he hasn't been able to forget.
It turns out Josh hasn't forgotten Chris, either. But with Chris such a changed man, can they still have a future?

Mixed feelings, here! On one hand, I'd kinda love to read this because...well, just because. On the other hand, my DH is deploying to Afghanistan in April, and I don't really *need* more ammunition for my brain to play with... *sigh*

*inappropriate thoughts about "Get permanently legless - free!"* I thought you might be offering alcohol :-P

Okay, I didn't, since I beta-ed this story, but COME ON. NO ONE ELSE HAD MADE THAT JOKE AND IT HAD TO BE DONE!

J.L., all your books I've read so far were full of words play and situational humor. When I was in need for something to make my day brighter, I reached for your stories.
To apply this style to a story about legless soldier is a challenge, but I believe you managed.

Looking Good

Congrats on the upcoming release it looks awesome. Please count me in the contest.

On a side note: I found this blog entry via Goodreads and there are a few people leaving comments there. I didnt know if it would be valid if I did that :)

Re: Looking Good

Hi, Adrien
Thanks for your comment! Yes, people who commented on Goodreads were entered into the draw, but I'm afraid the contest is now closed (with hindsight, I should have put dates in to make it clearer). The winner has been announced, and that post should show up on Goodreads too eventually - I hadn't realised there was such a delay!
I've put a note on the original post on Goodreads to say the contest is now closed.
