Cover reveal of “Two Three Four”. Release date November 25th
I’m really excited to reveal this gorgeous cover by the amazing Letita Hasser of RBA Designs. “Two Three Four” will be released on November 25th.
BLURB
Max Conti. One of the most eligible bachelors in Rome. Hot as fu*k and my boss.
Why am I crushing on him?
I don’t do crushes.
And I definitely don’t do falling in love.
But when Max proposes a “friends with benefits” relationship, and introduces me to his favorite kink, I find I can’t resist.
And then there’s Steve. Open to anything and a total hunk.
I shouldn’t want two men in my bed.
Except I do want them.
I want them so bad I can’t keep my head straight.
It’s lust, simple as that. No strings… just two guys, a girl, and a whole lotta sex.
I can handle that.
Sure I can.
It’s no big deal.
It’s not like I’m gonna fall for them or anything, right?
***
Sexy Italian Max has the starring role in some hot dreams and wild nights for Lauren when she leaves her life in Seattle behind to work for his company in Rome, Italy. There she’ll meet gorgeous Englishman Steve, and soon crazy ideas start to form in Lauren’s mind about having both men in her bed. When Lauren’s fantasy becomes reality, the two sex gods take her to such heights of kinky pleasure she never imagined possible. So what could possibly go wrong?
***
TWO THREE FOUR includes the never before published TWO, an updated version of THREE, and FOUR. A panty-melting emotional read. 18+only.

Release day of “Four”
My new “baby” is out in the world. And reviews, so far, have been awesome. I’m really grateful to the bloggers and reviewers who’ve supported me with my menage erotic romances. For “Three” to be come “Four” I had to dig deep and find an emotional story to keep readers invested in my characters. I hope I’ve succeeded.
To celebrate the launch of “Four”, I’m running giveaways on my Facebook Author Page, and I’d love as many readers as possible to enter. Tap here. The giveaways will run for four days and winners will be chosen at random.
My next project will be to write the prequel to “Four”, which I’ll include in the box set “Two Three Four” and publish at the end of November 2016. I can’t wait to share it with you.

Meet Steve
Sorry it has been a while since I wrote a blog post. If you care to read my newsletter (see here), you can catch up with my latest news. My excuse for not blogging is that I’ve been really busy, but I won’t let that stop me in future. I love reaching out to readers and blogging is a great way to do so.
I’m super excited at the minute as Four will release next week. When I finished writing Three, I really wanted to tell the rest of Max, Lauren and Steve’s story. It’s an emotional, sexy read, and you don’t have to have read Three first as I fill readers in on what happened. Why not add it to your Goodreads TBR? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/31282160-four
I’ve been asked why I didn’t use Steve’s POV in the narrative. It was a conscious decision on my part to keep to Max and Lauren’s viewpoints. Having too many POV characters weakens characterization, in my opinion. And Steve has such an open personality, wearing his heart on his sleeve, that I felt I didn’t need to show his thoughts.
Steve is an Essex lad, from Southend-on-Sea, and speaks with a rough accent. Contrary to what many believe, the use of ‘mate’ to refer to a friend is originally English and was taken to Australia by British immigrants. In the south end of the UK it’s used almost as a filler word. And Steve uses it a lot. I’m not apologizing for that as that’s how I hear him speak in my head.
Overtly sexual, he could come across as crass, but Lauren and Max adore him for his honesty and for helping them overcome their fear of showing their feelings to each other.
With Steve what you see is what you get, and I’m glad readers love him as much as I do.

Author: S.C. Daiko
Genre: Erotic Romance
I shouldn’t want this, shouldn’t want them, and I definitely
shouldn’t want all the dirty things they do – not just to me but
to each other.
Except
I do want it.
I want it so bad I can’t keep my head straight.
Why does dirty have to feel so damn good?
It’s lust, simple as that. No strings, just two guys, a girl and a whole
lotta sex.
I can handle that.
Sure I can.
No big deal… it’s not like I’m going to fall for them or anything,
right?

★★★★ COVER REVEAL ★★★★ Four : A Menage Erotic Romance
Title : Four : A Menage Erotic Romance
Author : S. C. Daiko
Genre : Erotic Romance
It’s been a year since Max and I overcame our commitment fears and chased away our demons, a year in a blissful poly relationship with Steve. And now we’re all set to become four.
It should be the best time of my life, of our lives; trying for a baby with the two hot men who keep me warm at night.
But when Steve’s friend James arrives from London, an over-the-top-theatrical scene player with his own agenda, and a whole lotta history just waiting to reignite, Steve suddenly doesn’t seem like the guy we fell in love with. He’s changing, morphing into a different man before our eyes.
I’m beginning to think the four Steve has in mind doesn’t necessarily include our baby.
***
Lauren Price is happy living with the two men she loves and life couldn’t be any sweeter. What started as just a little fun a year ago – a girl, two guys, and a whole lot of sex – has become a deep three-way love she hopes will last forever.
They want to be a four – Max, Lauren, Steve and their unborn baby. That’s what they said, that’s what they planned.
But life in love doesn’t follow the rules, and soon four doesn’t look quite like the three-plus-one Lauren intended it to be.
***
Although a sequel to “Three”, S. C. Daiko’s first Erotic Menage Romance, “Four” is a standalone story and, like its predecessor, contains vivid erotica and scenes involving MF, MFM, MMF, MM and some BDSM. All consensual. Most definitely 18+ only.

Trenda Lundin
Before I sent the final draft of Three: A Menage Erotic Romance to my editor-in-chief, John Hudspith, I had the invaluable help of beta-readers, the first and foremost of whom was an amazing lady, Trenda Lundin. An active reviewer for Bare Naked Words, Stephanie’s Book Reports, and Beyond the Valley of the Books, along with being a guest reviewer for Crystal’s Many Reviewers. Trenda went above and beyond when beta-reading my chapters. She was great at highlighting areas of the story which might have seemed clear to me, but weren’t to her. And she was a huge assistance in giving me feedback to help navigate the plot ahead.
Initially I wasn’t supposed to know Trenda’s identity, as I was introduced to her as a ghost-beta for Stephanie’s Book Reports. However, after my editor persuaded me to do a complete rewrite of “Three”, and I started sending T (as I knew her) my rewritten chapters, Stephanie gave her permission to reveal herself to speed things up.
Trenda was absolutely fantastic. She read and commented on my chapters without delay and I was able to keep the momentum going. We worked really well together. All I needed were her pointers. I took them and ran with them, creating a much better book as a result. Her honest and direct feedback were a real boost to my writing. As I said in the acknowledgments page in “Three”
“Trenda has become a valued critic and a friend. What started as simple beta reading has evolved into something much deeper. Three is a different book, thanks to your pointers, Trenda. Thank you!”
Whether you are looking for a beta reader or a closely involved critique partner, Trenda will be at your side. You can connect with her via her website or Facebook.
