The
Wish of Xmas Present Emoji Love
Dr.
Malcolm Styles and Dr. Sky Ellis are the hero and heroine in The Perks of
Higher Ed and The Wish of Xmas
Present, the first two books in the Styles of Love contemporary
romance trilogy. One of their relationship trademarks is their exchange of fun
text messages and silly emojis. Malcolm started the trend, using both to get to
know Sky and to test the romance waters between them.
He pulled his cell phone from his pants pocket
and sent Sky an emoji with a pink bow on her head, bright-red heart-shaped lips
pursed for a kiss, long curling lashes, sparkling blue eyes, and huge b*****s.
It wasn’t totally tasteless. The emoji did wear a pink bra to cover nonexistent n******s.
Sky,
conservative but a closet prankster with a wicked sense of humor, is more than
capable of matching Malcolm.
His phone dinged
with a text message notification almost immediately. His lady’s feminism never
disappointed, neither did her lack of romanticism.
You’re shameless, Dr. Styles. Her b*****s are nearly
as big as her head.
She ended her
message with an orange President’s Day emoji of Donald Trump holding a cell
phone and tweeting: #notfakenews #mydayoff.
President’s Day? It’s September. At least send me a
Hispanic Heritage Month emoji.
When Christmas
is upon them, Malcolm knows the right text message to send his Christmas bell.
The cell phone
in her hand buzzed. Bringing the screen to life, Sky hit the message icon and
read the text.
Your sleigh awaits. Meet me in the foyer.
Above Malcolm’s
message was an image of a red-nosed reindeer emoji.
Contemporary
romance is a great opportunity to include all kinds of popular culture into a
novel. Texting and emojis are two fun inclusions to this holiday-themed novel.
Sky has compiled
some of her favorite Christmas emojis for Malcolm she’d like to share. She kept
her choices PG-13. If you want to know which emojis made it to Sky’s Naughty
But Nice list, you’ll have to ask Malcolm.
What’s your
favorite Christmas emoji?
