About this author

Kari Gregg lives in the mountains of Wild and Wonderful West Virginia with her Wonderful husband and three very Wild children. Once Kari discovered the fabulous play land of erotic romances at RWA’s National Conference in 2009, the die was cast. Finally! A market for the smoking hot stories she loves!

When Kari’s not writing, she enjoys reading, coffee, zombie flicks, coffee, naked mud-wrestling (not really), and . . . coffee!

If you would like to visit Kari, caffeinate yourself and head on over to http://www.KariGregg.com


Just a quickie post to let y’all know the random number generator (aka, my daughter, LOL) picked Emily W for the free copy of Foreshock for the Hop Against Homophobia drawing — WOOT!


And (aren’t I just bursting with win?) I’ve also sent off a pdf of Spoils of War to Sas399, the winner my other random number generator (aka, my son, LOL) picked for that drawing.


CONGRATS to you both! Hope you like...

Spoils of War (Gay & Lesbian)
1 chapters   —   updated Oct 14, 2010 12:06pm
Description: Enslaved during the invasion of the rival King of Herra, Micah cut off his emotions and adapted to his new life in servitude. Xerxes, the Herran King, abuses his captive to keep the neighboring kingdom of Alekia under his yoke, but after Micah nearly dies when plague sweeps Herra, the Alekian King sends Eli to bring his beloved son home. Institutionalized by his slavery, unable to cope with his freedom, Micah seeks to please the new master he’s found in Eli throughout their harrowing journey to a homeland he no longer remembers. Eli protects the young man and introduces Micah to the pleasures denied him as a prisoner. Will Micah accept his noble birthright when they reach Alekia and more importantly, can he accept Eli as the devoted slave his father has given him rather than the master he’s come to love?

“I won’t run.” Gabriel gulped. “I promise.”
“You aren’t being punished; you’re being protected.” Cal snorted. “But you’ll run. When you’re scared or hurt, your first instinct is to run. You can’t help it any more than I can resist chasing you.” The shifter leaned to brush his mouth over Gabriel’s. “Be smart, pet. Run to me.”

{Elliot} blinked when a blade speared neatly through the master's chest from the rear. "Got him," Garrick shouted over the master's shoulder. "Set, Elliot."
Set what?
He didn't care.
He channeled his rage and pierced the dark master through, impaling him on his blade.
Garrick slid his free.
Malachi yanked him down a split second before Garrick's sword severed his head as well as the dark master's. Chest heaving, he sprawled in the dust, blinking at the fuzzy image of the head bouncing across the floor. It came to rest at the bottom spoke of a crumbling ladder, the vampyr's teeth still gnashing.
His new partner dragged him upright and, looking in his eyes, squeezed his shoulder. "Set means your blade will set the enemy for your partner's killing blow" Malachi grinned at him, chuckled. "It also means duck.”

“Zachary maneuvered the vehicle down the rutted lane, scanning the corners for signs of danger. Two minutes and they'd be safe. Free. Absurd, giddy joy lit Zachary up. He smiled at Brian. "Jesus, you're a pain in the ass."

Brian grinned. "But I give great head, Sir.”

Kari Gregg Woo hoo, Lauren! Glad you liked IO. :D

IO's going to have a sequel, yes, but the idea for it is still cooking in my brain. It's not ready yet.

Lauren Thanks for the friendship. I now have all your books listed in my "to-read" folder.

Bubbles I am very happy MegaP was enjoyable... Have you watched Smiley Face? it is also on Netflix streaming


message 24: by Kari

Kari Gregg Yeah, the collect-friends-at-any-cost thing happens a lot. I personally don't see the point. A lot of work, sending a gazillion friend requests to people who share zero interests w/ me...why? I'd rather focus time & energy on the writers & readers I do actually have something to talk about with. Go figure. LOL


Josephine Myles Hi Kari - thanks for friending me here! :D

And I ask that question because I was getting all sorts of friend requests from people who seemed to have no interest whatsoever in m/m fiction. Really, what would be the point of them friending me? I think they're just collecting numbers.

Taylor Donovan That's true... and will probably happen to lots of us.

Kari Gregg Taylor wrote: "Really? That's interesting! Care to tell me why?? LOL"

Because I was buried in setting my writerly self up, LOL. Plus, I was also prepping 2 other books for release...Actually, I'm prepping 2 more books this time too (he he he), but it's not like I have to go put up a website, open a business-only bank account or whatnot. So I can have more fun with it. Woot!

Scroll past What You Want Version 2 to download/listen to What You Want.

My DH wanted the music from the LW book trailer for the car. ;-)


message 7: by L.C.

L.C. Hey Kari - Looks like Movie Maker is PC-based. I'm on a MAC. But, went surfing through my applications and found iMovie. It came pre-installed, so... looks like I have a new program to learn. Yay.

And PUH-LEEZE! Your videos rocked. I loved the music for Spoils of War - haunting, mysterious... It really set the tone perfectly. I'm bummed I can't find the music on Lovely Wicked on iTunes - but Sam's hot, so its all good. :-)


message 6: by Kari

Kari Gregg If you don't already have Movie Maker, download it! It's very intuitive. If you know how to work with images, you should be able to pick up MM right away and you know how to manipulate images, which means you have the foundation skills to pull of something truly spectacular with a book trailer.

Try not to be too unimpressed with mine...2 books coming out so close together and me scrambling to set my writerly self up, I didn't have time to play with my stock images like I wanted. Still, I don't think I did too badly given the time crunch.


message 5: by L.C.

L.C. Nope, I haven't tried making one of those yet. I don't even have the first clue how to go about it. ;-) I'm going to go check yours out right now though...


message 4: by Kari

Kari Gregg This is my first try at a cover, LC. Have you tried making book trailers yet? Those are so fun, should be illegal.


message 3: by L.C.

L.C. You're not wrong, I did the triple. I actually did seven in total - had to call in friends to help me narrow it down to three. ;-)

I LOVE playing with cover ideas! I have mock covers done for all my WIPs. They keep me going. :)


message 2: by Kari

Kari Gregg Yeah, Josh's idea to have the contest was brilliant great fun. You did the mock-ups of the 3 together, right? Or am I wrong? Regardless, I thought they were very cool. I think I may be in the minority, but I liked the first one best. :D


message 1: by L.C.

L.C. Hey Kari,

I saw your cover entry on Josh's site - nice work. Fun he's doing something like that, eh.

Good luck!
:-)
