#SixSunday - Primal Possession

Six Sentence Sunday - from Primal Possession
“I’ll be thinking about you all night,” Liam murmured.
His words sent a ribbon of awareness curling through her, straight to the ache between her legs. By his knowing smile, she had no doubt he could smell her desire. Stupid extrasensory abilities.
“I . . .” December didn’t want to return the sentiment. Didn’t want to let him know how much she was beginning to care for him.
Hope you all are having a great weekend!

No One to Trust - Temporarily #99cents #Kindle

No One to Trust, which is currently #88 in romantic suspense at Amazon, is temporarily marked down to 99 cents! Find it at Amazon and Barnes & Noble ! This is the first book in my Red Stone series and since I'll be releasing the third soon, I wanted to mark this one down.

Description:

Computer security specialist Elizabeth Martinez has never been able to turn her back on her brother Benny. When his risky lifestyle finally lands him in harm’s way, Elizabeth finds herself dragged into the dangerous underworld with him and into the cross hairs of one of Miami’s death-dealing drug lords. Only after her ex-boyfriend saves her does she realize she might have no choice but to depend on the one man she has tried so desperately to forget.

Former Marine Porter Caldwell never should have let Elizabeth walk away from him all those months ago. She means more to him than anything and now that she’s in danger and turned to him for help, he won’t make that mistake again. When a local gang targets her and she’s nearly killed in a drive by shooting, Porter vows to do whatever it takes to keep her alive. Even if it means turning his back on all that he’s sworn to uphold.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!

#SixSunday - A Jaguar's Kiss

Six Sentence Sunday - Snippet from A Jaguar's Kiss, available October 1, 2012.

“When my brother called and told me what he’d done I rushed in from the woods. Taking you was stupid, an impetuous decision.” There was an edge to his voice and she realized it wasn’t directed at her.
“Impetuous? That little psycho kidnapped me at gunpoint.” Gabriela subtly tried to wiggle out from his grasp, but it was useless.
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

“Get rid of him.” He didn’t raise his voice, but there was a razor-sharp edge to it.
Maybe his tone should have made her nervous, but it just infuriated her. He infuriated her with all his arrogance. “Or what?”
“Or I’ll do it for you.”

Release Day! #PrimalPossession

Primal Possession is finally being unleashed into the world! That's right, it's release day! I've got quite a few things going on today and a lot of chances to win a copy of the book.

and here is my facebook fanpage link !

Primal Possession:

To protect her, he will unleash the beast within…

As his pack’s second-in-command, lupine shifter Liam Armstrong gives orders and takes what he wants—until he meets red-headed, blue-eyed December McIntyre. Liam knows the human beauty is his intended mate the moment he sees her, but December is far too strong-willed to accept his protection.
December, whose brother is the town sheriff, has every reason to mistrust shifters after one killed her youngest sibling. But the forceful and handsome Liam has gotten under her skin in a way she hadn’t thought possible, and the desire she feels for him is almost too much to bear.

When a radical hate group targets all humans known to sympathize with paranormal beings, December is attacked in her bookstore. Reluctantly, she turns to the only one who can help her: Liam. And he is going to take her to places within herself she never knew existed.

To purchase: Amazon, Barnes & Noble, the Book Depository

Six Sentence Sunday from Primal Possession ...which releases in two days!
“Stop doing that,” she muttered.“Doing what?” he asked, his deep voice far too close for comfort.She resisted the urge to turn around. If she did, she was afraid of what she’d see on his face and afraid she’d like it too much.“Quit looking at my butt.”“I can’t help it, Red.”

Cover Love - A Jaguar's Kiss #Harlequin #Cravings

Got my cover for A Jaguar's Kiss, which is releasing October 1, 2012 from Harlequin! This is my third Nocturne Cravings cover and I love it!

A Jaguar's Kiss Description:
Owen Wright, alpha of his wolf pack, hasn’t seen jaguar shifter Gabriela Segura in nearly ten years. She was his first love—until he did something to drive her away just as their relationship was heating up. Now Gabriela has returned to Montana, and his craving for her is stronger than ever….
But a recent string of brutal attacks on humans have the wolves suspicious of the jaguars, threatening the tenuous peace between the packs. Before he can claim Gabriela as his mate, they must join forces to prove her family’s innocence and track down the true predator.

Hope everyone is having a safe week! I'm busy preparing for the touchdown of Tropical Storm soon-to-be Hurricane Isaac. Our house looks like we're preparing for a zombie apocalypse.
