Superhero day

Apparently, superhero day is a thing. I guess that makes sense since we have something called Talk Like a Pirate Day and a day when a rodent tells us if we’ll have a longer winter or not.

To honor superhero day, a few authors got together over at superhero-fiction.com to form our own brand of superhero team. All books over on superhero-fiction.com in the group promo are 99 cents!

Psst. Arson is there. It’s also available with the rest of the series in Kindle Unlimited.

Click here to check out the promo…and hunt around to see some other superhero book offerings while you’re there.

FREE – Head Over Heels in Hawaii

To celebrate the release 4th book in the Traveling Calvert Sisters series, Head Over Heels in Hawaii is free on Amazon until April 28th. Click here to grab it or click on the photo below. Only Head Over Heels in Hawaii is free for those days. However, you can read all 4 books in the series (they do not need to be read in any order) with your Kindle Unlimited subscription. FYI- Out of Luck in the Outback releases Tuesday!!!!

Blurb: First in a new romantic comedy series by Tori Ross! Come along with the Calvert sisters as they find love and laughter far from home…

Cora Calvert is frustrated with her life and still sleeping in her childhood bunk bed. As if living with your parents isn’t bad enough, Cora’s job consists of measuring old women for bras instead of using her college degree in fashion design. When an opportunity for a trip to Hawaii comes about, she’s all over it and can’t pack fast enough. Even better, the tour is only for people in their twenties.

Cora’s excitement for the tour wanes when she learns the tour company assigns seats, and she’s stuck next to an arrogant jerk named Eric. Cora makes other friends and tries to ignore Eric’s green eyes and verbal diarrhea as she explores the islands, but Cora’s about to learn that first impressions can be very wrong.

The Traveling Calvert Sisters series is a series of shorts with 25-35k words. They can be read in any order. HEA or HFN guaranteed!

Books to Read This Weekend- Erotica Edition

For the Weekend of April 22/23

I thought I’d dedicate this weekend’s reads to my erotica-reading (and writing) friends. The books below are all erotica shorts or novellas and can be read in an hour or less. Click on the book covers below to be taken to their Amazon page. Best part? These authors are all in Kindle Unlimited!

#1 Ten Weeks on Hotwife Island by Lily Chase (aka Josie Juniper if you want to check out her romance.)

This is what the title says. For those that don’t know, a hotwife is a wife that fucks other men while the husband watches. The things you learn here…

#2- Master of the Hunt by Rose Wetter

Speaking of husband and wife plus one, check out this historical take on threesomes. Who knew such a respectable woman in a respectable dress could be so nasty? Rose has signed up to be a guest on my new podcast later this year, so I’m excited to talk to her about this one.

#3- Hot Revenge by Simone Blue

Need a little step-dad story? Check this one out by Simone Blue. (Also writes romance under Nova Flynn if you enjoy this one.) It’s sheer filth…but it’s oh so good filth. Click on the picture below to buy or read in Kindle Unlimited.

Happy reading!

Rocks is Back in KU!

Cherry Burn, Blue Balls, and Pistol Fire are all back in Kindle Unlimited. Click here to go to the series page. You can also read Rocks: The Complete Series to read all three shorts with one download! Just click on the pic below.

Blurb: The complete series is now available!

Deep in the sticks of Missouri is a bar called Rocks where the bartenders are only similar in the fact that they’re all unlucky in love…

Cherry Burn – Dylan Wilcox has been gone from Highlight, Missouri for ten years. Nobody has seen him or even received an email as to his location. Worse, he left his high school girlfriend, Cherry Moss, without saying goodbye when he disappeared. When Dylan shows back up in town, clearly changed in the past ten years, Cherry needs to decide if his story is worth her forgiveness and if she can get over her own demons about him leaving.

Blue Balls – Piper Peck loves her life, her friends, and her job. There’s only one problem. The local sheriff, Creed McDuffy, has it in for her over her grandma’s old hot tub that’s considered an eyesore by county enforcement. Unknown to Piper, Creed has had a crush on her since high school and will do anything to get her to look his way. When Creed goes too far and arrests Piper in a last-ditch effort to get her attention, can he ever grovel enough to get in her good graces?

Pistol Fire – Libby Dean is known for being the town pistol. Brock Carpenter is known for being the town’s hero fireman. When a fire at Rocks Tavern throws Libby for a loop, Brock wants to comfort her. Libby’s not used to comfort, though, and runs away from any affection as fast as she can. But when Brock needs his own comfort, will Libby put aside her pride and step up?

Happy Reading.

Audio Production for The Cuffing Season Contract

I’m super stoked to announce that I’ve extended a contract to a narrator to record The Cuffing Season Contract in audio!

Thanks for the love of this book. It really is the book I’m most proud of, so I’m excited to see how it does in audio.

No idea when it will be available since it has a long approval process at Amazon before it’s available on Audible and iTunes, but I’m crossing my fingers for some time this summer. I just approve the 15-minute checkpoint today, and it’s in Megan Riley’s hands now.

Watch social media and this blog (and my newsletter) for more info!

Books Suggestions for the Weekend

April 15/16 edition

Check out these books to read this weekend. Click on the covers to download/purchase. Happy reading!

#1- Wedding Games by Evie Alexander – This rom com novella is the capstone to Alexander’s Kinloch series. I highly recommend the entire series, but you can read this as a fun novella by itself. It’s available on all major retailers.

#2- Twisted Tropes by my friend Kelly Kay and other authors. (This is an anthology of six authors.) It’s contemporary romance and available in Kindle Unlimited.

#3- Sunk by Torri Heat – This has been out a couple of weeks, but check it out. Think…submarine sex and “Why Choose?” You’re welcome.

Happy Reading

Back Available for Sale on All Major Retailers!

The Swingyards is back on sale at all major retailers and Radish Fiction. I took it down last year to do some soul searching since I really wish I wrote this filthy masterpiece under a pen name. But it’s who I am, and people REALLY like this story.

Originally on Kindle Vella, it moved to all retailers until I took it down. It’s back, though! Kyle and Olivia. Barb Watson. Eryl. Annoying Bill. Pastor Nate and his wife Rebecca (love her or hate her.) They’re all there. Hell, even the widow down the street joins in.

Click here to be taken to the series or click on the picture below.
