Essie notes: Aspen and Garren
not dated, written on the back of a postcard
Aspen – domineering father, not a boy toy, needs independence, pretty green eyes like spring leaves
Garren – parties, clubs, quasi-anonymous hook-ups, doesn’t date at work – hah, that’s what he thinks; the mystery of Aspen’s arrival and inconvenient persistence of attraction will help get him over that
Basket – new job, new apartment, new city, tickets to get there
Notes: Make sure the basket is cheerful, upbeat, appealing. Not too elegant or high-end, or it will remind him of the deal his dad wants him for. Taylor will go along with not preparing Garren: wants his partner happy, is a bit of a prat. See if there’s anything in the threads to avoid client involvement or to minimize. Green for Aspen, spring, rebirth. Blue for Garren, independence, calming, blue skies, faith. White for perfection.

“Aspen’s Eyes” is is part of a series of spring-time jewelry to coordinate with the Easter releases from Loose Id (www.loose-id.com), publishers of fine adult romance novels! “Covert Delivery” by Draven St. James inspired this piece, especially its main character, pretty and independent Aspen Starr. His gorgeous green eyes help ensnare his practical boss, Garren Thomas, into a romantic tryst that’s irresistible to them both.” – from Bunique Beads
