My favorite genres are paranormal and dark romance. I love reading a good book but I'm so busy in life that I only get to enjoy audio books. Its the only way I can get lost in a good book nowadays. And you know what? I half prefer an audio book over print any day! I have a long standing membership at Audible.com and I plan to publish audio books for busy bookworms like myself! Yay!
My love of writing started when a friend of mine encouraged me to write a short story and just see what happens. Turns out I had a knack for writing because everyone loved my short stories. From then on I have worked on improving my craft. Growing from flash fictions to novellas. I am really looking forward to sharing all the twisty goodness I have planned!
Thank you & Much love and Sizzle!LaSasha Flame O X O X

Etherya's Earth Series



Slayer Princess Miranda, heir to the throne, has hated the Vampyres for a thousand years. Since the Awakening, she's fought to protect her people, choosing to be a warrior more than a royal. When a female Vampyre washes up on the shore of her compound’s riverbank, she seizes the moment to take the offensive.
Sathan, King of the Vampyres, distraught at his sister’s disappearance and captivity, agrees to travel with Miranda to resect the Blade of Pestilence, also hoping to change his people’s state of endless war. Although the woman hates him due to the constant raids on her compound for the Slayers’ life-giving blood, he can’t help but admire the stubborn and strong princess.
As their journey progresses, both begin to understand that they are aligned in their hatred of Crimeous, leader of the Deamons, as well as their hope for peace between the Slayers and Vampyres. Determined to fight their growing attraction, they forge a tentative truce. But old wounds run deep and trust is scarce. Their faith in each other must remain strong or all will be lost…
**The Etherya's Earth series is best read in order, so that the reader can enjoy the evolution of the characters. After all, the author loves a good twist and wants the reader to uncover them organically. However, readers of romance rest assured that each book has its own featured hero/heroine and HEA.

Together they train and by night their connection grows, building toward the moment when they will battle her father. But, in the end, Evie has a choice and struggles to espouse righteousness over malevolence. For when one’s worst fears are exposed, the evil is so much easier to embrace…

Billion Dollar Daddies Special Edition 2



What happens when two bored girls get stuck in the lodge with only their Daddy Doms, a wild moose, paints, and a chemistry lab to entertain them?
Sam and Jennie are back for Part 2 on the BDD: Special Edition Trilogy and bring more mischief to the table than ever before. As the two explore their Little sides, the girls’ journey of self-discovery leads them to unexpected places.****Jennie’s been afraid to let loose despite the encouragement of her four Daddy Dom/Fiancés. Influenced by her new, fearless friend, she takes a chance and tests the love of the men who have devoted their lives to make her happy. The winter ‘breaking’ has started- not just to introduce the coming of spring to the land of permafrost, but also to help her Little and Big girl personas break through the fear and bloom. With that comes a new level of intimacy- one that launches this fivesome to another plane of desire.Sam still struggles with the reckless impulses that constantly lead her over someone’s knee. If it’s not the ice-covered lake calling her to swim, it’s the wilderness that surrounds her. Her heart aches for the ocean and the pod but, with a family of new ‘uncles’ guiding her and Richard in the age-play dynamic, she learns something very special about herself. This knowledge brings more than awareness—it challenges her to let go of expectations and jump into Littledom feet first. With that, Richard’s hopes are fulfilled, and he sees a future in fostering their unique relationship. What he doesn’t realize is that there’s much more yet to come- or that he won’t know how to handle it when it presents itself.The group also is privy to some spicy secrets from the past when they meet with Dr. Bonham, an old Naval Academy friend of Sam’s uncle, Scott Jenkins. Together with Dr. Bonham’s ‘blackmail box,’ videos captured on Jennie’s cell-phone, and a little information from Sam’s father, there are no geographic boundaries as the girls go all out to make as many of their men laugh as hard as possible while avoiding the never-ending threats of spending time across one (or more) of their laps!
(This is the second book of a three book mini-series: Special Edition: Jennie and Sam. Old favorites come to life as the two families join together to learn the power of acceptance, loyalty, and unconditional love, and travel with them to discover amazing new places and events unique to the beautiful Pacific Northwest)

Who am I?I'm a native Californian gone 'wild', and had the opportunity to travel the globe and discover the world through the eyes of both a Marine Intelligence specialist and a BDSM lifestyler. I left the service to go into hospice nursing and grief counseling, eventually working as a marriage and family therapist for those involved in alternative lifestyle development. This experience has allowed me to gain unique inspiration for my books and offer realistic plots and relatable characters.
In 2004, my husband, John, and I joined forces to work with both submissives and dominants- teaching, training, listening and loving. Our goal was to take the mystery and fear out of the lifestyle and mentor people in safe, consensual and healthy relationships.
My first book, The Game Plan, was published in 2012 and opened the door to the now-booming world of Age-Play literature. Since that time, I've devoted my 'spare' time to writing, researching, community involvement, and private and group pro bono counseling in deviant behavior, alternative lifestyle, and addiction recovery.
I was formally 'dungeon trained' as a Domme before discovering my submissive side when I joined the service. My scenarios are pulled primarily from either personal experience or observation, including spending time in BDSM clubs as the safety/medical officer. My multi-faceted background allows me to glean from many avenues and give a unique and intelligent literary experience through elements of fantasy and fiction. I also discuss the questions and psychology of the lifestyle in a manner that is fun and informative, and based on 'the real deal.'
I live with my husband, musician, and fellow-author, John Hayse, and two border collies in southern California. We practice a 24/7 D&S relationship with speckles of AP (and many trips to Build-A-Bear), and happily spend every moment together that we can. My hobbies include my puppies, hiding my vanilla salt-water taffy where John can't find it, exotic art, collecting inspirational trinkets, and developing my own paddle line. You can also see me as a featured author/instructor in professional conference settings and as a Sexpert for kinkyliterature.com.

The Last Flag



Because anger and vengeance know no bounds and like everyone in the blighted town they become pawns in a game of retribution.
The contestants become nothing more than live entertainment to viewers who watch and judge their every move in the town of Prideful as they race each other to arrive alive to a final flag. The team that makes will get airlifted out alive and go back home richer for it, the others walk back to a pittance and if they are not careful. They won't get out at all.

Wren Cavanagh, that would be me. Also writes under the pen name Junior Sokolov. An artist and writer from great North West.
I am grateful that I have this opportunity to share my work and imagination with you. Growing up my head was always stuck in a book or a comic book (before they got fancy and got the moniker "graphic novels").
More often than not those books were filled with monsters, werewolves and vampires. Then the likes of Godzilla showed up along with their brethren, born from the very justified fear of the atomic bomb and its consequences.
And that is what I love. Escaping into worlds of monsters and heroes, and sometimes they are one and the same!Letting my imagination run along and bring into the narrative what I see around me everyday.
I hope that you will enjoy my stories. Find in them a temporary and enjoyable escape of your own.
