Hello once more and welcome back to my blog. Okay, so as an author we all think about our characters as if they are an extension of ourselves, strange but very true.
I know my children are like a bunch of two year olds hyped up on sugar running around yelling at me to tell their story next, and that’s only part of them. There is another, very elluisve, part of my children that are bad boys to the core, alpha men that don’t run around as if they are hyped up… oh now that would be far below them… instead they simply at times step up behind me and whisper in my ear telling me that their story is next. It is those, amazing and fabulous men that I want to always write but as I stated, they are very ellusive. Sadly. Darn Brats one and all I tell…

Happily Evil After: A Dark Fairy Godmother Series
Hi there! I just wanted to update you on a new series I’ve been working on this month, I’ve been having so much fun with it and I think those if you who appreciate the humour in my Coalition Mates series will dig this twist on our regular fairy tales!
Meet Pandora, the Dark Fairy Godmother that just doesn’t quite fit in with the rest of her brethren.
The idea for this series started when our street team group was deep in a Hero vs. Villain debate…and I took a little flack because of my Super Villain fetish. What can I say? I can’t resist a little bad boy action. ;-) So I decided that I would write a story where the sadly misunderstood villain was the one who got their ‘happily ever after’ instead of the goody-two shoe Prince.
So here is a little introduction into the Happily Evil After series, I hope it peaks your interest!
Happily Evil After
Series Prologue:
My name is Pandora, I’m a dark Fairy Godmother. What? Never heard of a dark Fairy Godmother you say? Well that’s because only about one in every one million Fairy Godmother pregnancies result in a blending of wild magic and ends up with a deviant like me.
I still remember that day at health class in Godmother finishing school…
“Girls! Make sure you never trust a boy when he says, ‘Don’t you trust me baby?’ and once you’re bonded; never have sex in any other position other than missionary!”
Yeesh, have you seen how the Fairy Godfather’s dress around here? Prancing around in their pastel leggings and embroidered velvet frocks? No freaking thank you, I’d rather have sex with the Gnome gardener that was always peeping in the girls locker room than let one of those dandies get at me.
Apparently it runs in the family, because my mother was a bad-ass too. All she’s ever told me about my father was that on one spring break, her and her fellow sorority sisters, The Raging Blue Faries, decided to do something crazy. They flew down to Florida, hit the Paranormal bar’s that were ‘happening’ at the time, had a few too many Mai Tai’s, ended up in the hot tub with a dashing male of the non-fairy variety, one thing led to another and nine months later I came into the word. In true fashion that only I can pull off, she said I unfurled my smoke grey and black wings and gave the head nurse the finger before starting to cry.
The ruling Fairy Godmother Council of course tried to make my mom give me up, since not only was she not bonded, but I was the epitome of all that could go wrong in the life of a Fairy Godmother. They wanted her to leave me in the woods for the Sprites to decide my fate and let the realm re-absorb my magic if that was its will. But like I said, my mom was a bad-ass and she very politely, because she was still a Fairy Godmother of course, told them to shove off and curled her sparkly blue wings around me.
While my mom always made sure that I knew she loved me just the way I am, I never really did fit in with our society. It’s totally true what they say about me, I do create havoc and trouble where ever I go….I freaking love doing it! I spent most of my school days punking the other Fairy God-students, even the teachers weren’t safe from my wrath. Before you bring it up, NO I was not the one who opened that damned box of sins; the fucking thing was open when I strolled into the locker room. I think those damned Pink Pixies set me up, it had only been a week since I drugged them in chemistry lab and shaved off all their eyebrows. Who knew they would be so vindictive? I almost felt like we could’ve been friends after that, too bad. Eventually, I did get kicked out of school, but not before I absorbed one very clear fact that I took great offense to within my mother’s society of well do-gooders. They used their magic to help others find their happy endings, but not all others; just the ‘good’ people who they decided deserved it.
Who were these pompous assholes that got to decide that just because someone takes a less-than-understood path in their life, that they were ‘evil’ and not deserving of a happy ending? Well I call bullshit on that bitches. See, I have my own brand of power and I decided that I would be the Fairy Godmother picking up the slack for all the misunderstood ‘monsters and villains’ out there. After all, they’re just different like me right? And let me tell you, I make damn sure I get my happy ending on the regular, if you know what I mean. *wink*

A Modern Woman
I am a modern woman, a strong woman.
I pay my own way, I handle my own problems.
But I am still a woman.
I want to be pursued.
I want to be courted.
I need to take care of my family and dote on the ones that I love.
But I still want to be desired.
I want to be wanted.
I long to be held gently as I fall asleep and loved desperately as I awake.
The emotions that you read in my face at any given moment are only a fraction of what I feel inside my heart.
Pain. Happiness. Desire. Sadness.
I will always have moments of perfect clarity and moments of hormonal chaos.
I will need you to pretend like you always understand.
I am a woman,
And I am waiting for you.

Two for the Beta by Cree Storm
Two for the Beta
by Cree Storm
Being in the middle of a battle between very strange creatures, in the year 1915, is not something Noah or Seth even considered when they left their home to find their best friend, Damien. The battles and near death experiences have Noah begging to go home and Pete trying to keep them as his mates.
Seth feels left out of everything. He and Noah have been together since birth and in a relationship since puberty. Now Noah is needed to rewrite a book and Pete is needed to keep Noah safe, where does that leave him? He won’t be a third wheel or the reason Noah dies.
Can he persuade Noah to stay and convince Seth he is needed just as much by his pack as Noah is? All Pete knows is he must try, while he keeps his mates safe from an Elder that wants to kill them and a Baliz that wants one of his mates as his own.
STORY EXCERPTS
Pete had faced some serious adversaries during the hundred year war they had been in. However, he couldn’t remember a time that he felt this nervous.
“Why don’t we all sit over here, so we can talk,” Seth suggested.
Pete followed Seth and Noah into the sitting area. The men didn’t know it, but this was actually Pete’s room.
When Noah had passed out, Pete had wanted a comfortable place for Noah to recover. Having his mate surrounded by his things also helped his wolf stay calm until he could come and see how Noah was recuperating.
“So, Pete, tell us about yourself,” Noah said as he sat down next to Seth on the settee.
Shrugging, Pete said, “What is it you’d like to know?”
“What is it that you do for the pack? I mean, Asher and the others say you’re the beta of the pack and I know that means you are like the second-in-command, but sadly, I really never did a great deal of reading on wolf pack hierarchy,” Noah said with a slight red tinge to his cheeks.
Pete smiled, saying, “It’s okay, Noah. I’m sure you never expected to be mated to a wolf.”
Noah snorted. “Uh, no, I can pretty much guarantee that never entered the realm of possibilities for me.”
Pete sat back and crossed his legs. He thought for a moment and then said, “My position is a dominant one. The only wolves stronger than myself are Alpha Asher and Asa. My job is to care for the members of our pack. If they need something or have a problem, I’m the one they come to for help.”
Seth scrunched his eyes in confusion. “Why wouldn’t they go to the Alpha?”
“If everyone that had a problem went to the Alpha, Asher would never have time for anything or anyone else,” Pete answered.
Noah leaned forward. “Well, if they all come to you, then how would you have time for anyone or anything else?”
Pete looked at Noah. “When a beta is unmated, they generally like to focus on the pack around them. To know you’re helping the people you care about is very fulfilling. Once we mate, well, we generally delegate some of our responsibilities to some of the enforcers. However, in my case, since we have merged two packs, there is another beta as well as four enforcers to help out. I would never neglect my mates, Noah.”
Noah sat back, quietly whispering, “Oh…okay.”
Seth was more direct with his questions, and the next one was something that caught Pete a little off guard. “Why should we mate with you, Pete? I mean, what if we find a way back to our time? Would you force us to stay here?”
Pete had not really given that idea a thought. All he had known was he wanted his mates. With them talking to him, it told Pete that he wasn’t as screwed as he originally thought when Noah had said he wanted to go home. However, he knew this answer was important to both his mates so he needed to be careful how he answered it.
Thinking for a moment longer, Pete finally answered, “I am a lucky man. Unlike Nathan, Cain and Ira, I have two of the best parents that any person could wish for. My parents knew at a very young age that they were mates and when they were of age, they became one. Because that’s what a mate is. A mate is the other part to our soul. This is the one, in my case, two, that were meant to be mine.”
“But how can you be so sure we are your mates? What if just Noah is your mate? What if you mate with him and then you can’t with me?” Seth asked quietly.
Pete watched as Noah clasped Seth’s hand tightly and that’s when he realized something very important. Seth walked around like he was confident and strong. However, he had just as many fears and insecurities as Noah. Seth just kept his fears and worries buried deep inside.
Pete stood up and knelt in front of Seth. Placing his hand over both his mates’, Pete’s intensity could be heard in his voice, as he said, “Seth, when a wolf meets his or her mate, they know immediately. The scent that fills the room is like no other.”
Seth didn’t look at Pete, but continued to look at their connected hands. “But what if the smell is just one of us? I mean, even if it is just me you smell, I can’t and won’t leave Noah. I love him more than my next breath.”
Pete felt Noah’s flexing hand when Noah squeezed Seth harder, whispering in a choking breath, “I love you too, Seth.”
Pete almost felt left out, but realized that hopefully, in time, they would be saying the same words to him as well. Instead, Pete said, “When I smell Noah, it’s like after a long rain and the air is so fresh and cool. Then that breeze passes by and the unmistakable pine scent crosses my nostrils, like a sprig of rosemary.”
“I smell like rosemary?’ Noah asked in awe.
Nodding, Pete said, “After a nice cool rain.”
Noah asked anxiously, “What does Seth smell like?”
“In the deep forest we have a tree called a Ponderosa pine. When you scratch the bark and sniff, it smells like vanilla and butterscotch. It is sweet and very sensual.”
Noah’s smile was sappy as he asked, “And that’s what you smell when you smell Seth?”
Pete clasped Seth’s cheek as he looked lovingly into his mate’s eyes and said, “They are two very distinct scents and yes, that is what I smell when you are near, Seth. You and Noah are my mates, of that I am certain.”

ADULT EXCERPT
Noah looked at Pete and asked, “What did you think about when you came here?”
Pete watched as the water came down from the top of the cliff as he thought about how to answer. Just when Noah thought he might not answer, Pete said, “We had been at war so long with the other pack. I just wanted it to end. We couldn’t let the cubs run free or build too close to the other pack.”
Pete sighed as he thought back to not so very long ago. “I would come back here and sit, looking out at the stars and one would fall from the sky. I’d close my eyes and wish so hard.”
“What did you wish for?” Seth asked quietly.
Pete looked at Seth and then Noah as he said, “You. Oh, I didn’t know your name and I sure didn’t know there would be two, but I would think about finding my mate and building a home. How we would come here and swim in the pond, make love near the falls and sleep under the stars.”
Noah felt his cock stiffening as Pete spoke. He even whispered, “You’d make love, here?”
Pete turned to Noah as he whispered in a seductive tone, “Oh yes. Do you see that plant over there?”
Seth and Noah both looked in the direction Pete was pointing and Seth asked, “You mean the aloe plant?”
Pete smiled as he stood up and walked to the aloe plant and took off one large leaf. A thick oozing liquid ran onto Pete’s finger and he went back to Noah, softly saying, “I would first take my tongue and eat his ass until he was relaxed and ready to welcome my naturally slicked finger. Then I would stretch him over and over.”
Noah was panting and if he didn’t open his zipper soon, he would have marks.
Seth must have felt the same, because Noah heard him sliding his zipper down as he panted, “And then what?”
Pete laid the aloe leaf next to Noah and took his fingers to his zipper, asking, “May I?”
Noah couldn’t speak from the lust-filled lump in his throat, so he nodded as he lay back and let Pete pull down his zipper, saying, “If it’s okay with Seth, maybe I can show you instead?”
Noah moaned as he looked at Seth. Seth was stroking his hardened shaft as he watched Pete and nodded rapidly.
Pete didn’t wait as he quickly removed Noah’s pants, socks and shoes. Noah quickly removed his shirt as Pete stood and took off the pants he had put on earlier to eat.
Turning to Seth, Noah begged, “Seth, you too. I want you with us.”
Pete’s eyes shifted a bit with the smells of desire coming off his mates, saying in a gravelly voice, “Seth, will you consider making love to me?”
Seth’s eyes went huge as he quickly looked at Noah. Noah couldn’t believe how hot that sounded and panted out, “Oh my God, that would be so fucking hot!”
Seth stood and removed the rest of his clothing and waited for Pete to get to his knees. Taking the aloe leaf, Seth placed some of the clear gel on his finger.
Noah watched as Seth then tapped Pete and asked him to lift a bit and slid under the man. He knew the exact instant that Seth took Pete into his mouth, as did the rest of the forest when Pete yelled, “Holy shit!”
Pete breathed rapidly in and out through his teeth and then focused on Noah.
Noah had laid back in a slight angle to watch as Seth sucked Pete down. He knew from experience that Seth had no gag reflex. Smiling, Noah said, “He’s good, isn’t he?”
Pete nodded his head as he closed his eyes and just felt the pleasure Seth was bringing him.
Bending his knees, Noah heard Pete draw in a deep breath.
Noah didn’t know if it was because Seth had just deep throated him, or because Pete could see his puckered hole, waiting for the promise Noah could see in Pete’s lust-filled eyes.
Pete leaned down and Noah thought he had died and gone to heaven, as Pete began to lick and suckle his anus.
“Oh, Pete! Oh…Oh…Oh…yeah like that….Oh my God!” Noah felt Pete’s tongue licking the outer edge and then stiffening and pushing into his hole. The sensations were like a small charge of electricity connected from his hole to his cock.
Pete must have grabbed the aloe plant, because the next thing Noah felt was that thick digit pushing past his ring of muscles and he was being finger fucked as Pete continued to eat his ass.
Pete lifted up and groaned, “Seth…Oh by the Gods, Seth…your mouth is fucking amazing.”
Noah heard Pete groan even louder.
Feeling Pete’s fingers moving in and out of his hole, had Noah hissing, “Oh shit, your fingers feel good in my ass.”
Not giving Noah time to really think, Pete pumped his finger in short thrusts, saying, “Let me show you what Seth’s doing.”
Pete swooped down and took Noah to the root as he plunged a second finger into Noah’s stretching ass.
“Uh…” Noah gasped as he lifted his hips and enjoyed the warm moisture of his mate’s mouth on his cock and those magic fingers scissoring and stretching his ass.
Pete popped off Noah’s cock as he gasped and groaned, “I need…Seth, please…I need.”
Seth slid out from under Pete as Pete quickly added a third finger.
Noah felt his shaft leaking down the sides and then Pete’s tongue was lapping his pre-cum up and wrapping his lips around the mushroomed head.
Noah could see Seth was lubing his cock, and placing it at Pete’s hole.

Excerpts:
Story Excerpt:
Sally made her way down the hall to the great room and quickly noticed that she seemed to be the last one to join. Most were speaking quietly in small groups, and a few were talking with the alien women that had rejoined them. The hyper little woman with the pink hair from earlier, however, seemed to be waiting for Sally to emerge because as soon as she spotted her, she jumped up and rushed toward her in an excited waggle that reminded Sally of a crazed squirrel looking for a place to stash her nuts.
“Hi, Sally!” the vibrating dynamo squeaked out. “So did you figure out what you’re going to do? I’m going to study marine biology! I’m so excited I could almost burst. I’ve always wanted to go to university but could never afford it back home. Isn’t this just the greatest thing that could ever happen?”
It was all Sally could do to not laugh outright at how excited the odd little woman was. Devyn was literally out of breath and panting when she finally stopped talking. The little dynamo obviously should be medicated or something to bring down the ‘perk’, but what she’d said did make Sally think about what was happening. Was this the greatest thing that could’ve happened? Obviously not. But was it the worst thing that could’ve happened to her? Sally had to take a hard look at her life as a whole. She wasn’t really leaving anything behind on Earth, no job, no family, no pet even. The only real friend that she had was Evie and she would be here with her, so there was nothing to do but adapt to her new situation as best she could. That was one thing life had taught her, you adapt or you get left behind.
“Yeah, that sounds great, Devyn. I’ve applied to enter the courtesan guild here on Sirus, so I hope it works out,” she answered, sounding much less enthusiastic than her neighbor.
“Oh.” Devyn’s eyes grew impossibly larger at that information. “That sounds exciting. I heard that the Sirotians have some sort of mind-control abilities. Guess that’s why they’re supposed to be the best at seducing people, huh? I wonder if they can teach you that?”
That was news to Sally. But she had to assume in this situation that she was no longer the smartest person in the room when it came to learning about all these alien species. Good thing they were teaching classes! But one of Sally’s hard, fast rules in life was, even if you don’t know exactly what’s going on, fake it till you make it. Uncertainty was a show of weakness that Sally had learned from a young age that she couldn’t indulge in. Predators always went for the weak or confused in the herd, and Sally wouldn’t ever be prey again.
“Well, Devyn, in my experience, as long as a man has a penis, he’s generally not that hard to seduce,” she answered with a liberal amount of sarcasm loud enough that a few of the other groups of women were chuckling when they heard her comment.
“Ladies! Please take a seat, and we will begin with your cultural and etiquette lessons. Now, there is a large amount of information to absorb, so you will be taking these classes daily for the time that you are with us, along with the curriculum for whichever career path you have chosen,” Lady Samal said as she casually went to the front of the room. It was obvious from her demeanor and grace that she had a lot of experience with speaking in front of groups.
As the rest of the women found comfortable seats on the low couches, Sally saw Caric come back into the room and speak in a low tone to the older woman. Sally couldn’t hear what was said, but clearly, whatever it was surprised Lady Samal from the look on her face. Then, when both women immediately turned to look speculatively right at her, Sally assumed Caric had just informed Lady Samal about her career choice. She couldn’t understand why it was such a big deal, but if Lady Samal was involved in the guild of her choice, she had better turn the charm on right now instead of waiting for her interview. Better safe than sorry, right?
Sally immediately put on her game face, ready to dazzle and distract with charm and charisma. Never frown. Never let them see what you’re really thinking or feeling. After all, when you put on a show, people rarely look deeper than the façade that you easily offer up. Sally could only hope that it wasn’t only human nature that adhered to the “out of sight, out of mind” adage. So with her empty bucket filled with bravado and bullshit, Sally smiled brightly, volunteered to help with any demonstrations, and absorbed as much information as she possibly could for the rest of the afternoon. As the women walked back to their rooms after their dinner meal, Sal’s face actually hurt from smiling so much. She couldn’t wait to get into her room and close the door so she could actually breathe. It was exhausting being someone else all the time. For a fleeting moment, Sally couldn’t help but wonder if this new world might be an opportunity to try to be herself for a change, but almost before the thought was done, it was replaced by all of the cruelty and disappointment that had littered her childhood. No, she couldn’t take that risk again.
**please note the excerpt below contains graphic content and is for adults only!**
Adult Excerpt:
“Are you cold, love?” he said in a low whisper as he ran the back of his fingers lightly up her arm, leaving goose bumps in their wake.
Sally had learned in one of her classes that Sirotians had a type of pheromone control that was frequently used in their seductions. Initially she’d disregarded the possible effects, thinking that she had superior self-control and it wouldn’t affect her, but as Arkenon’s warm, spicy scent became stronger and stronger, all she wanted to do was roll around in it…and on him. So much for her super self-control. Her policy of lying to everyone, including herself, was once again coming back to bite her in the ass.
“Hmm, yeah…cold. I am a little cold now that you mention it,” she answered, unable to stop the shiver that rolled down her body and settled firmly in her now-very-wet pussy.
“You can lie to us both, little one, but I can smell your desire,” he answered with a throaty low laugh. “If I were to run my hand up your thigh right now under this beautiful dress, I know I would find your pretty little pussy dripping with honey just for me.”
Sally’s legs almost buckled as she imagined him doing just that and then pushing her up against the elevator wall and fucking her hard and fast. She knew that when the doors opened and Benic stood there taking in the scene before him that she hadn’t come anywhere close to masking the look of desire on her face. Damn it! She needed to come so badly Sally was starting to shake with the lust that was overtaking her. She assumed that this overwhelming feeling could only mean that Arkenon was cheating and using his Sirotian pheromone mumbo jumbo on her, freaking cheater. But as she turned her head and saw his heavy-lidded look and felt his massive erection straining against her thigh, she thought that perhaps he was turned on enough that he’d forget their terms and just fuck her already. Might as well try, right? After all, he was still a man, and most of the men she had experience with would cut just about any corner when it came to getting a little action. Now it was time to see if she could give his self-control the little shove it needed.
“Why don’t you see for yourself then, sir?” Sally asked in a low, raspy tone as she widened her stance, inviting him to do just that.
She tried not to look away from Arkenon’s face as he slowly backed her out of the elevator and up against a wall in the foyer, but out of the corner of her eye, she could see Benic raise an eyebrow at her taunt, then smile and shake his head as he came closer to them.
Arkenon wasn’t surprised that Sally was trying to tempt him into losing control of the situation. It was a tactical move that he’d assumed she’d mastered throughout her previous relationship history with submissive males. But he couldn’t say that he didn’t have a stronger reaction than he’d expected, making him want to dominate her even more. He had a plan, however, and he was sticking to it, and it started with Sally not keeping any secrets from him.
He pushed her back against the wall and slowly pushed her arms up above her head as he held her wrists in one of his hands, which he could see made her pulse jump.
“Benic, please see that Sally’s arms stay right where they are,” Ark said as the younger man stepped up to place his hand on Sally’s wrists.
Then he took a half step back and smiled as he saw a conflicted set of emotions run over Sally’s face. Her breathing was even more erratic, and she struggled with herself to relax and let Benic bind her. Ark could tell that she’d never let anyone restrict her movement before during foreplay or sex. Her reaction was genuine, and the dominant male in him reveled in the battle she was going through. When eventually he saw her mild panic move from confusion into lust, he was satisfied to continue, and he stepped back up to her, running his hands lightly along the sides of her breasts as he gently kissed her neck.
Sally was so distracted by his mouth that she gasped when his fingers quickly released the back of her dress and the green silk went sliding down her body. He continued to let his fingertips slowly drag up and down the sides of her chest until she was writhing in Benic’s grip.
“Please! Please touch me,” Sally said in a low whisper full of desperation that she hated to admit.
“Touch you where, Sally?” Ark asked her as he still used his fingertips to skim over first her breasts, then down her belly, and along the tops of her thighs.
“You said you wanted to touch my pussy. That’s where I need you,” she said in a whisper that had Benic, who was now standing beside her, groaning softly.
Ark could only frown and shake his head at the younger man, who’d fallen exactly into the obvious trap Sally had set. He had no doubt that if it were just the two of them here that Benic would be enthusiastically pumping balls deep between her thighs right now, giving her anything she wanted. He’d have to get Galen to work on Benic’s self-control a little more firmly. Sally’s eyes were closed, she was biting her lip in frustration, and it was a beautiful thing to behold. Ark slowly trailed his finger down her stomach, and when he got to her pussy, he had to stifle a groan himself when he found her folds soaking wet and swollen. Slipping one finger gently through the slickness, he gave her one light pass, circling her plump clit, and then moved back to leave his hand resting on her mound, which had her squirming in Benic’s grip again.
“Arkenon, please!” she whimpered, trying to arch up into his hand.
“What happened at the end of our meal tonight that upset you, Sally?” Ark asked her as he lightly teased the pad of his finger along her drenched pussy.
When Sally stilled for a moment and frowned, he could tell she was trying to clear her head to figure out what he’d just asked her. When her face evened out again and she bit her lower lip and looked down at him, he knew what she was going to say.
“It was nothing. I’m fine. I just need you to touch me,” Sally answered, rubbing herself against him as much as she could.
“One more chance, love, will you trust me enough to tell me what changed your mood?” he pushed.
He saw the lust slowly back down in her eyes, and the determination and anger rose as she looked back at him.
“I said that I’m fine. I don’t need you to fix me, Guild Master. I only need you to fuck me. Isn’t that what you do?” she snapped back at him.
Arkenon gave her a sad look, which only seemed to fuel her anger further as she looked back at him and raised an eyebrow, daring him to ask her again.
“Wrong answer, love,” Ark sighed as he leaned back and rose to his feet. “Only trust gets rewarded here. Lies will leave you wanting.”

Blurb:
When she’s good, she’s very good. But when he’s bad, she’s better.
Taming the Beast, Book 2
As a good fairy, Heather is empathetic and chaste to a fault. No bad language, no dirty thoughts, flirting and no sex. But when a satyr named Daemon steps up to her reception desk at From Crud to Stud, she finds herself on the fast track to exquisite corruption.
Daemon is the total bad-boy package with a kiss straight from the dark side. Though he’s here for a supernatural makeover, Heather can’t imagine why any red-blooded woman would want him to change.
A disciple of the god of wine, Daemon has had his share of good times. But sex has never been this good. Heather brings out a new side of him, a side that makes him want to protect as well as pillage.
But Daemon needs a little creative backup to help set his fairy’s naughtiness free. And that means bringing in Mistress Jin. Under the genie’s tutelage and Daemon’s shameless lust, Heather is about to learn what it means to let loose.
Warning: Not your typical bedtime story. May lead to indecent behavior, a taste for voyeurism, discipline, bondage, m/f, m/f/f and f/f action, which will result in screaming orgasms. Proceed with caution.
Excerpt:
Heather steeled herself to do battle with Satan. Cautiously, she faced her webcam and his image on her computer monitor. This evening, he’d assumed the form of a European playboy, a snifter of cognac held casually in one hand, dark hair slicked back, his blood-red ascot contrasting nicely with his white shirt and navy blazer.
He certainly knew how to dress.
“Cara mia.” Heat smoldered in his voice and dark eyes. “What can I do to you?”
“For me,” she corrected gently, wondering when he’d ever get that right.
Grinning, he focused on her white peasant blouse and jutted nipples, her areolas tightened from the chilly weather, not him. Tonight was damp and cool thanks to a spring storm that continued to rage in the French Quarter. Lightning flashed and the office lights flickered.
Flames flared briefly in his pupils. “We’ll do many things to each other, no?”
Heather smiled politely, a knee-jerk reaction for a good fairy. Needing to get tough, she held up his overdue bill, hoping he’d look at it rather than her chest. Her hand shook so badly the paper rattled.
“How you tremble,” he cooed. “How pale you are. Allow me to put some color in your lovely cheeks. Heat that will last an eternity.”
Her skin got even clammier. “Please, just pay your account.” She waved the paper and talked fast before losing her nerve. “Your grandson failed to show for his last two appointments. I’m sure he had a good reason. Unfortunately, he didn’t call to cancel.” She offered an apologetic smile and pressed on. “Because you’re the cardholder, we had to charge you for the time. I’m so sorry, but it is the rule.”
One she was honor-bound to enforce as an employee of From Crud to Stud, a makeover service for supernatural beings. Howls from weres, hisses from vampires and obscenities from demons poured from the treatment rooms. Those poor souls were going through proverbial hell to suppress their beasts. They longed to date mortal women without freaking them out, while also winning their hearts the normal way. With real charm, not magic, with integrity and love, not lies and manipulation.
But these makeovers took the staff’s valuable time and clients needed to pay for the effort. Even Satan should understand that.
He gave her an indulgent smile. “What charges?”
Gasping, she dropped the flaming paper in her trashcan before it burnt her fingers.
“Later,” he said and killed the call.
Hurriedly, Heather put out the small blaze, chiding herself for letting the account get to this point. She should have been firm with Satan’s grandson when he signed up for the service. Determined to make up for being too nice, she brought up her bank account to pay the charges herself. She was about to transfer the funds when the lights flickered twice, thunder boomed and the front door flew open, banging against the wall.
She flinched.
A blast of dank air and rain blew inside, followed by a guy who looked to be thirty or so. He wore a black cowboy hat, snug navy tee, low-slung jeans and cowboy boots.
Once he shoved the door shut, he slumped against it, breathing hard.
Heather stood so quickly her chair rolled into the wall.
He didn’t notice. He’d closed his eyes and raised his face to the ceiling, his prominent Adam’s apple bobbing with his hard swallow.
Alarmed yet intrigued, she regarded the short, dark hairs on his throat and took the rest of him in. His rain-dampened hair was the color of dark chocolate, thick and wavy, flowing to his broad shoulders. They heaved with his next ragged breath. Tall, possibly six-three, he was lean yet muscular. His wet tee clung to his well-defined pecs and abs, those bruising biceps. Stubble covered his strong jaw, upper lip and cheeks. His bronze skin spoke of days in the sun.
Even from where she stood, Heather smelled his scent. Clean and masculine, a woodsy, fresh fragrance along with something else…the unmistakable odor of liquor.
Uh-oh. It wasn’t often that mortals, drunk or otherwise, happened upon this place. When they did, Heather had ironclad rules to follow. First, buzz Constance, a voodoo priestess who could remove memories by laying her hands on someone’s head. Following that, Heather was supposed to buzz Becca, a half-mortal witch who owned this place.
Heather leaned over her desk to press the intercom button.
The guy turned to her, blinked slowly and stared.
Her hand stalled.
His eyes were amazing, the color of Lipton tea, ringed by long, sooty lashes, his attention riveted as he drank her in. Given his slow, sexy smile, Heather suspected he was undressing her with his eyes.
She swallowed and was about to press the button when he groaned suddenly and mournfully, the sound of someone in serious pain.
Heather paused and decided not to call for anyone just yet. “Are you all right?”

About Me (You know you want to know!):
I’m an award-winning, bestselling novelist in erotic, paranormal, contemporary and historical romance for Kensington, Samhain Publishing, Ellora’s Cave, Siren Publishing, Booktrope, Luminosity, Decadent, and indie. Yay! Booklist, Publisher’s Weekly, Romantic Times and numerous online sites have praised my work, and trust me, I’m forever grateful for that. I’ve had my books reach finals in the EPIC competition, one title was named Book of the Year at a review site, and others have won awards in RWA-sponsored contests. I’m actually featured in the 2012 Novel & Short Story Writer’s Market. Talk about feeling like a freaking star. Before my writing career, I was the editor of an award–winning Midwestern newspaper and worked in Story Direction for a Hollywood production company. Outside of being an admitted and unrepentant chocoholic, I’ve flown a single-engine plane (scary stuff), rewired an old house using an electricity for dummies book, and have been known to moan like Meg Ryan in When Harry Met Sally whenever I’m eating anything Mexican or Italian. Yeah, I like to eat (burp).

Interview for Cariad Book Blog: Sarah Marsh
Q: Tell us more about you and what drew you to your genre?
A: I really love reading erotica and science fiction/ paranormal books, ever since I was a teenager and read my first Anne Rice Vampire Chronicles I was hooked. So when I thought about writing a story that was naturally the first place my mind went to. Plus it’s fun as hell to write ;-)
Q: Did you ever think you would become a writer or did your dreams take you elsewhere?
A: I had never written anything more than poetry up until a year and…

COVER REVEAL! Red is for Denial, by Clair de Lune
Red is for Denial
by Clair de Lune
Blurb:
Ewan Keire and Aonghas Drummond have denied their true natures all their lives, for similar reasons.
Ewan, who has worked hard to become the editor of the local paper, believes he will lose his job and ruin his parents’ lives if he comes out as gay. Aonghas had an abusive father who threw him out when he discovered Aonghas’ true nature. His aunt, who took him in, thought that being gay was a disease that could be cured, if he tried hard enough. Aonghas has come to believe that love and happiness aren’t for him.
When they meet by chance in “Red,” a secret and exclusive BDSM club, they are strongly attracted, but feel unable to develop a relationship. Fate takes a hand in the person of Briar Rose a gold-digging schemer, who decides that Ewan is hers and hers alone. When he rejects her, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned. Will she succeed or will true love conquer all?

Damn! That’s Hot Erotica 3 Event!
Damn, That’s Hot Erotica 3 is already in full swing and steaming up computers everywhere. ;)
https://www.facebook.com/events/912521308827597/
Featuring 30 amazing authors, prizes, games, and all kinds of sexy tales. Special thanks to our multi-talented host, who is a steamy erotica writer himself, John Tucker.
Among them are the super talented Elena Kincaid and Maia Dylan, who also happen to be my partners in crime in our SINFULLY MORE EROTIC STREET TEAM. you can chat live with all three of us and members of our group on Sunday, October, 11, at 3PM EST
Big shout out to our fabulous group. We have the most amazing, supportive, crazy fun members who always come with eye candy and wit. Come join us in our shenanigans and get updates from myself, Maia, and Elena. We also tend to get quite gifty in there. https://www.facebook.com/groups/955387561187276/?ref=bookmarks
Speaking of our awesomesauce members: Q&A time:
1- Avril Shafer Stepowski What do you find the most difficult when writing?
Sarah: When I first started writing and decided to go with science fiction romance because that was what I loved to read, I didn’t think about how hard it would be to create entire new worlds from scratch. I was really paranoid about world building and the dreaded ‘info dump’. I knew how irritated I got myself as a reader when you start a book and then lose interest when it begins to sound like an alien geography textbook. I was terrified of readers getting bored while I tried to set the scene, which is why my earlier stories are so short. As I’ve gotten more comfortable in my genre I hope that I’ve learned how to be more organic when creating new worlds and species, but I think one of the most difficult things as a writer is keeping the “this isn’t any good” devil on your shoulder from piping up and stalling your muse. It’s such a jerk.
Maia: There are a couple of things for me. Finding the time to write can be a real bastard. As with the others, I work full time, have two kids under 7, a husband who is tolerant, but needs to be shown a little Maia loving *wink wink* on occasion and then I have my reading too. My TBR list has gotten real big since I started writing. The other thing are my characters, and in particular the ones whose stories I have yet to tell. I feel like Ode Mae Brown from Ghost at night, sometimes as my characters try to get my attention. They aren’t singing Henry the 8th though thankfully ;-)
Elena: Sometimes distractions break my concentration and then I lose my train of thought, like for instances other stories are screaming in my head and I have to jot them down so I don’t forget. I just have too many things going on in my brain sometimes.
2- Amy Herman-Pall I know the three of you are collaborating on the story you’re sharing with us. Is it hard to write with someone else? If you could choose any other author in the world to write with, past, present, or future, who would it be?
Sarah: I was shocked actually how easy it was to write with Elena and Maia, we do have pretty different styles so I expected to have a bit more trouble blending them together. The most difficult part is the time-zone differences. ;-) If I had to pick any other author in the world to write with, I think I would pick Anne Rice. She really was the first author to spark my fascination with the paranormal when I was in school, I love the inclusion of history, fact and lore, in what she writes. She never ceases to peak my curiosity.
Maia: Not difficult at all! We do have different writing styles, but they seem to blend really nicely and the fact that we have taken a POV each helps to give each character their own distinct personality. LOL I agree with Sarah about the time zones, they need to move a little closer hehe. I would love to collaborate with Nalini Singh or Sophie Oak, ooo oo or Heather Rainer. That would be too cool.
Elena: I was shocked as well about how easy it was to write with them. Maia and Sarah are both very talented writers. I am a fan. J We sort of fed off each other and the story started to take shape. And of course we have to thank our Street Teamers for the topics we are working on. I find that I am really loving this story and it needs to be told. If I could collaborate with Jane Austin from beyond the grave, that would be a dream come true.
3- Dawn Martin-Smith How did you meet and what made you decide to collaborate?
Sarah: Elena posted looking for other authors to see who would be interested in starting a street team group, and after debating whether it would make me look like a newbie idiot of not, finally commented asking “what’s a street team?”, then I believe Maia chimed in asking the same and we’ve never looked back! (that’s what I remember as the first meeting, did we meet before that?)
Elena: I am pretty sure I interacted with you both at some point, but I am so happy the three of us came together. Our personalities, though different are very complimentary and I am even happier to call Sarah and Maia my friends. Feeling mushy! If had to face aliens, evil shifters and vamps, I’d want those two to have my back.
Maia: I think we may have interacted during an event, but it wasn’t until Elena reached out looking for people to start a street team that the three of us truly connected. And we haven’t looked back since!
4- Amy Herman-Pall What is the one sex scene you yourselves have written that you’d like to try?
Sarah: Oooo, I’d be all over some menage action.
Maia: If I could clone my hubby then yep – totally into a little ménage loving!
Elena: All of them of course, but probably my fun with food scene from Three made In Heaven.
5- Avril Shafer Stepowski How old were you when you decided to take the writing plunge?
Sarah: 35
Maia: Shhhh…39. Only started in January this year – late bloomer ;-)
Elena: Since I learned how to write, that’s all I ever wanted to do.
6- Amy Herman-Pall What’s the one thing you want to write, but for whatever reason, haven’t yet?
Sarah: I’d love to delve into the BDSM world, but I’m a little on the OCD side and would need to do a lot of research first. Ideally experience it for myself first.
Maia: MM. I would really love to write an MM series. The MMF I am about to release in a couple of weeks was the hottest sex scenes I have ever written! My editor had this to say: “Sex scenes were hot city. The detail was vivid and sizzled on the page. Really, really good.” I have plans for an MM series with four books in it, and what is keeping me from it is just finding the time J
Elena: I’d like to write children’s books one day as well. I love writing erotic romance, so I will have to find a balance for it somewhere down the line.
7- Amy Herman-Pall What’s your writing process? Do you plot everything out before you start? Do you start with an idea and then let your characters tell you where you’re going from there?
Sarah: I’m a fly by the seat of my pants kind of writer, I usually wait for a story to begin unfolding in my mind and then just write as it comes to me.
Maia: I’m crap! I’m a wing it and see kinda girl. I tried for the last three books to be organized and started out planning the book on a spread sheet, and had it all worked out – then wrote something completely different!
Elena: For me it’s a combination. An idea sparks and I immediately have to write it down and then I keep adding to it as I get more and more of the story. I don’t actually sit down to write it until I have a good direction of where it’s going. Many times the directions will change as I write and characters take over. I even get surprised along the way.
8- Julie Ayling Where do you find your inspiration for your characters in your writing?
Sarah: Sometimes it’s hard to know where the inspiration comes from for characters. It could be a photo, or a fantasy, or even just one phrase that sparks an entire personality around it.
Maia: A lot of my characters have personality traits of people I have met. And what could potentially be an example of my own insanity, my characters are real to me, and as I write they are whispering in my ear. I get their personality and characteristics directly from them as well.
Elena: A lot of my stories have come from dreams. Seriously, my brain never shuts off. I could be dreaming about something that doesn’t make much sense, but when I wake up from the dream, bits and pieces of it have formed an entire novel. I have several outlines lined up and ready to be written from these instances. My first published novel, Three Made In Heaven was born this way.
9- John Tucker What’s been the most shocking thing you’ve put in a book???
Sarah: Shocking according to who? ;-) My writing style tends to lean towards graphic, so I imagine my first book being a MFMMMMM was a shock to most of my friends and family. LOL.
Maia: Nothing in my books has shocked me so far, and probably my readers would say the same thing. Perhaps the fact that I wrote a prophecy in my Shifters of Freedom Springs series that rhymed would probably shock the hell out of my old English teacher! Not to mention the Pagan spells and rituals I made up for books three and four of that series.
Elena: I agree with Sarah about the according to who part. We are erotic romance writers. I write a lot of ménage, which I guess is shocking for people who don’t read the genre. Maybe because I love reading it so much that nothing I write is really shocking to me. I just want to continue thinking up more hot ways to write a love scene. ;)
10- Julie Ayling Have you ever secretly written someone into a book to get a little revenge on?
Sarah:….not yet. ;-p
Maia: Hadn’t thought of that…. hmmmm
Elena: I wanted to. There was an ex-boyfriend I thought about writing in, where he falls overboard on a cruise and gets eaten by sharks, but nah, I didn’t.
And now for some questions for our fabulous host, John Tucker!:
1- John, you are such an amazing host. You run your events like a well oiled machine. Can you tell us a little about your very first hosting experience and what made you decide you wanted to throw your wild and crazy events?
My first big event was called ‘Dreams, Fantasies, Nightmares, and Visions and included several author friends over 5 days. Like with all my events I created a planning room to get all our ducks in a row. The party itself only had one hiccup but ran extremely well. Since all the authors reported many new followers, page likes, and book purchases, I decided to keep busy creating new events. While the last 4 events have been confined to Erotica, I’m looking to include more genres in the future.
2- What would you like to see/do in one of your events that has not yet been done?
I’d like to see Facebook ignore any complaints about nudity in a ‘Private’ Erotca event and allow my authors and attendees to celebrate the human body! There are limits of course, but classy pictures of beautiful people should not be censored
3- You are not just a host, you are also an erotica writer. When and why did you choose to start writing this genre?
I wrote my first erotica – Twelve Doors to Ecstasy – as a bet with a fellow author. Surprisingly, at least to me, it became my bestselling effort. Since then I’ve published 2 more – Two Days to Passion and Vergene (Revenge.Twisted) and I’m currently working on a paranormal romance.
4- Can you tell us a little about you current release/wip?
Violetta’s Voyeur is a paranormal romance with a mysterious man interacting with a sexually hot woman who has a cold mentality about relationships.
5- Do you have any kinks/fetishes?
Me??!! I’m pretty vanilla when it comes to sex but, with the right woman, wouldn’t hesitate to explore my boundaries. I do like role-playing where some of my latent kinkiness does come out at times.
6- Do you have any particular things you need before you start to write?
Gotta have peace and quiet, hard candies and Dr. Pepper.
7- If you had to choose one male super hero and one female super hero to have a menage with, who would it be and why?
Nice Question!! I’ve always been enamored with the Scarlet Witch of the Avengers group. The male would be anyone the lady wants.
8- What type of story would you like to tell that you haven’t written yet?
Coincidentally, I had a dream last night about a man thrust into a strange situation. It has several cultural elements, plenty of drama, and should be an unrelenting view of forced contrition. I can’t wait to start it.
9- Build your ideal woman using five female celebrities.
Hmmmmm. I’ll have to use professionals for this question, rather than celebrities. (Porn Stars). Head – Abigail Johnson. Torso – Ava Addams. Trunk – Remy LaCroix. Legs – Staci Silverstone. Attitude/Temperament – Chastity Lynn.
10- Which male celebrities would you love to have a bromance with?
As I’ve stated in the past Ryan Reynolds and I’ve added Nathan Fillion.
11- What is your next big hosting event?
Damn, That’s Hot Erotica 4 is definitely scheduled for January. I’m also working with Elle Klass on a Thriller/Mystery Event for Nov/Dec.
So do you wan to come and play with us at this super sexy event? Get to know us a little better and get a chance to win a ton of prizes! Here is the schedule of when you can find us there!:

Maia Dylan
Author Bio:
Maia Dylan lives, loves and works in beautiful New Zealand. She married her best friend and they have two adorable, but stubborn children who obviously take after their father.
Maia’s career has featured a lot of travel, and she has filled her time at airports and in the air with books, books and more books. Her love of erotic paranormal romance has seen her amass a huge library. She has been an avid reader and lover of ménage romances since she read her first book in this genre about three years ago.
In January of this year, Maia submitted her first ever manuscript to Siren Publishing. She wasn’t at all confident that it would be accepted and in fact she was expecting a nicely worded email with a resounding no! Much to her surprise less than two weeks later she had an acceptance and a signed contract in hand. Since then she hasn’t looked back and currently has three books in her Grey River series set for publication.
Outside of writing, Maia loves to eat, so she loves to cook! Her herb garden is legendary, but she still has issues getting tomatoes to grow. She’s been a performer for years, and has even sung on international stages, she would love to own a classic Ford Mustang one day and of course have the opportunity to race it on a race track without fear of a speeding ticket.
Although ultimately her dream is to be able to write full time on a sandy beach with a Mai Tai at hand, she is quite happy to fit her writing in when she can. As long as someone reads her books, gets a laugh and maybe come to love her characters and much as she does, then she feels that she is living her dreams no matter what!

Latest release” Blessed with an Angel:
Blurb:
Angel Navarez came to Grey River looking for a better life for her and her son, but she hadn’t counted on having to fight a man looking for revenge to live it.
Noah and Chris Carson both recognized Angel as their Fated mate the moment they met. But Noah firmly believed that his past actions made it impossible for him to have a future, so he left fully expecting his brother to find happiness with their mate without him.
But that changes when Angel is threatened and Noah drops everything to be there to protect her. Chris convinces Noah that he’s worthy of their dream, but he can’t fight for their future if he continued to fight his past. They must work together to earn back Angels trust and convince her that they can be the mates she deserves.
Just when their dream is within their grasp, the past catches up with them and the threat becomes very, very real.

About Sarah:
I live in British Columbia, Canada; I have all my life. I went to culinary school and studied Pastry Arts, working as a Pastry Chef in Vancouver for five years. But the commute into the city got to me and I had to change careers back to an office. I still work full time; I now work for a sporting goods wholesaler in accounting…which is where my twitchy creative side began to get restless…and as my Baba used to say, “Idle hands are the Devils playthings.” Or in my case, idle hands get me into all sorts of trouble; so I go a little bananas on the hobby side of things. I still love to cook and bake, I do a large amount of recipe creating and the boys at work certainly appreciate being sacrificed as taste testers. I am also a stress knitter, to the point that I had to open my own Etsy shop to unload some of the scarves I make. Realistically there’re only so many scarves a gal can make and keep for herself before people start to judge you…. I also paint when the muse hits me, mostly abstract in acrylics. I love to garden and grow things, have a weakness for all animals, and an un-natural obsession for making jam. I literally made 24 different kinds of jam last summer, it’s a bit of a problem….but there’s just so many different kinds you can create! Who am I to say no to see what Tiger’s Blood jam would taste like? (it’s strawberry, watermelon and coconut by the way….and it was AMAZEBALLS.)
I’ve always had a love of reading, science fiction and paranormal genres have always fascinated me, so once I found myself addicted to romance novels it really only made sense that the sci fi romance genre drew me like a moth to a flame. I only started writing about a year ago, it took me a long time to get Sarah’s Crew to the point where I would let someone else read what I was writing, let alone send it into a publisher. But eventually I did and after one fairly nice rejection I moved on and found Siren. I’ve been so impressed at how supportive and helpful all the other Siren authors have been through this entire process, I’m a little on the shy side so the social media and marketing part of the writing process has been intimidating to say the least. My goal is to keep working on my writing skills and to hopefully improve with each book, and I hope that anyone who reads them enjoys the world that I’m trying to create!
