He has captured me, stolen my heart and entwined my soul - Being a Jett Girl (The Bourbon Series #2) by Meghan Quinn

He has captured me, stolen my heart and entwined my soul into his at such an alarming rate that it seems almost difficult to breathe without him holding me, touching me, kissing me...
He won’t give me his heart though, he won’t let me own every last inch of him and not because he doesn’t want to, but because he doesn’t want to jeopardize my ambiguity.

How did I become a Jett Girl?

Hell if I know, one moment I’m working at the premiere spot for creepy men and sloppy drunks and the next, I’m being whisked away by a moody ex-boxer and a mysterious man in a suit that overlooks his girls from the third floor of the Lafayette Club.

It wasn’t easy but now that I’m a Jett Girl, there is only one thing on my mind and that is Jett Colby.
He has captured me, stolen my heart and entwined my soul into his at such an alarming rate that it seems almost difficult to breathe without him holding me, touching me, kissing me...

He won’t give me his heart though, he won’t let me own every last inch of him and not because he doesn’t want to, but because he doesn’t want to jeopardize my ambiguity.

Because of this, there is only one thing standing in my way when it comes to completely and utterly living my life with Jett Colby and it’s called Lot 17.

5 Ways to Earn Beads in New Orleans Without Showing Off Your Maracas…

By: Meghan Quinn; author of Becoming a Jett Girl and Being a Jett Girl

1. Buy a signature grenade from Bourbon Street for a stranger. The strongest cocktail on Bourbon Street is a city classic that will intoxicate even the most stable liver. From the green long stemmed container with the “bulbous” (yes, bulbous) and rigid bottom to the long neon green straw, this drink will bring you instant gratification followed by one hell of a hangover the next morning. Any Bourbon Street partier will be more than happy to toss over their beads in exchange for this delightful liquor concoction.

2. Whistle at a lady of entertainment. There are SO many to choose from, you could easily cover your maracas in beads by just whistling your way down Bourbon St. What is a lady of entertainment? It’s a nicer way of saying, the scantily clad ladies standing outside of strip clubs, waving their titty tassels around, trying to get everyone and anyone into the club by hooting and hollering, shimmying and making every passerby red in embarrassment from their brazenness, well the sober patrons of the streets that is. Give them a little attention and those beads are good as yours.

3. Ride the Trolley through the Garden District with a broom hanging out the window. This sounds odd, I know, but it will work. During Mardi Gras, there are multiple, not just one, but multiple parades that travel all throughout the city. One of the main strips parades like to travel down is St. Charles Avenue which is where the trolley travels back and forth every day. Instead of looking at all the beautiful and colorful mansions of the Garden District, look up at the wonky trees and power lines, it is a bead seekers gold mine.

4. Freeze yourself. No, not actually freeze yourself, it is New Orleans, the heat and humidity will cut through any kind of icicle you try to turn yourself into. What I mean is join the street performers. New Orleans is the place to be if you want to see street performers test the definition of gravity as they “freeze” in motion. When traveling through Jackson Square, you will run into ladder climbers, an African American Uncle Sam walking a stuffed dog and a plethora of metallic spray painted people. What do they do? They stand in one position for longer than should be naturally possible and allow tourists to take pictures of them for a tip. If you embark on this endeavor, I suggest buying a great deal of metallic spray paint and making a sign that says, “I freeze for beads.” It will be difficult but so gratifying.

5. Buy a souvenir. This is probably the easiest way to get beads, just go to any corner souvenir shop and buy the biggest set of beads you can find. Don’t worry, bigger beads doesn’t mean you are overcompensating for something, it just means you are one bad ass MoFo with a hell of a set of neck muscles. The gaudier the better!

Now, go and make me proud and earn yourself some beads. If you do decide to go the traditional route, remember two things. First, pluck all and any nipple hairs, keep those nips clean and two, glitter up those ta-tas. Tacky? Why yes, but you are flashing people for beads so you might as well go all out. Good luck!!


About the author:
When I was in high school I occasionally read books but was consumed by other teenage things so I didn't take the time to appreciate a good book on a cloudy day, wrapped up in a blanket on the couch. It wasn't until I received a Kindle for Christmas one year that my world completely flipped upside down. When looking for books I came across the Contemporary Romance genre and was sold and I haven't turned back since.

You can either find my head buried in my Kindle, listening to inspiring heart ripping music or typing away on the computer twisting and turning the lives of my characters while driving my readers crazy with anticipation.

I currently reside in beautiful Colorado Springs where the sun is always shining and there is a trail waiting to be hiked on every corner. I share a lovely and warm home with the love of my life and my five, four-legged.
