Inside Pin Up Girl Sugar de la Tarte's Purse With Her Author, Terri L. Austin #ProjectPurseDump

Hey, everybody! I’m Sugar de la Tarte. As a retro pin up girl and burlesque performer, I keep a few essentials in my bag at all times. I never know when someone might recognize me, so I like to look my best.

Here’s my favorite bag.  Doesn’t this just scream Sugar? Since I love my deep red lips, I wouldn’t be caught dead without a tube of Mac Red.

So what else do I keep in my sweet little cosmetic bag?

My compact, natch.

Who wants to walk around with a shiny nose? Not me, honey.

And of course I can’t leave home without my pasties. Believe me, carrying these around along with my pastie glue has saved my bacon more than once.

Since I got inked—isn’t she lovely—I need to have a tube of sunscreen on hand. I don’t want this beauty to fade.

Last but not least, I carry my phone, but I had to bling out my case. In my world, presentation is everything!

Try saying that five times fast!

I am thrilled to be able to share the cover of our new anthology. Me and some of my friends challenged each other to write short and steamy novellas for St. Patrick's Day, and I I think you'll like the result.

My story is called The Night Shift, and it's about an American woman who breaks into a famous library in Ireland to try to retrieve a priceless family heirloom and the security guard who catches her. Unfortunately--fortunately?--they get locked in the library overnight. What could possibly go wrong?

How about an excerpt?

Excerpt
As Devin left the administrative office of the library, she felt almost weightless with shock.

“I’m terribly sorry, Miss McDiarmuid, but I’m afraid we can’t find your book.” 

Devin let out a long breath in an effort to collect herself. She didn’t know whether to scream or cry.

Her grandmother had asked for one thing—o…
