August 2013 Newsletter

Hello Everyone,

I’m getting ready to take my daughter to college later on this month. I think I’m more nervous than she is. She is going to be all the way out in Hawaii at least for her first year of college. I’m an emotional wreck. Thankfully my husband is taking this better than I am.

On the writing front:
I’m taking a couple of weeks off this month, then I will be doing the final edits to “Voodoo” before I send it off to the proof reader. This is the first book in the Master of My Heart series. It will be released at the end of September.

I will be part of the End of Summer Bash at The Romance Studio Aug 11- 17th

May 2013 Newsletter

Hello Everyone,

An early Happy Mother’s day to all you moms out there. My kids are taking me out to dinner than a movie for Mother’s day. That’s sweet of them. My husband celebrates his 47th birthday and my daughter graduates from High School this month. It is going to be really busy around my house this month.

On the writing front:

The next book in the Master Series “Judas’ Kiss” will be released on June 5 on eBook and soon afterwards in print. A little about the book:

My Master, Noah, brought all of us to Master Xanthos’ community when our former head Master died suddenly. I didn’t know at the time that my brother Rex was a Master in this new community. Yet, my Master knew about Rex and this is why he chose this community. Being reunited with my brother is a blessing that I never thought would happen, yet, fitting into this community is difficult, especially for Adam.

Adam is a unique submissive. His wild nature is sometimes hard for my Master to control. I believe Adam is falling in love with Rex’s Elle. This will only cause problems between my Master and my brother. Rex is very protective of Elle and my Master wants to give Adam what he needs.

Then there is Master Judas…where do I begin…he is immature, spoiled and avoids dealing with anything. And to make things worse I believe Master Judas will give into his addiction again. My Master doesn’t need this right now. Yet...it is Master Judas’ behavior around my Master that ignites my anger. The way he looks at Master Noah…he has feelings for my Master that go beyond mere friendship I just know it. The way Noah talks about Judas’ kiss... Noah is my Master, my husband...damn it, Judas.


I will be part of the Stay at Home party May 1-8th at the romance studio. http://trsparties.com/ I will be giving away a print book of “Whispers of Change” and “Strict Machine” to one lucky winner.

I will be part of the Wet and Wild Blog Hop on May 20-25th http://justusroux.blogspot.com I will be giving away a print book of “Whispers of Change” and “Strict Machine” to one lucky winner.

April 2013 Newsletter

Hello Everyone,

Yay, it’s Spring, now if only the weather would reflect that. I so miss going on my walks outside. It’s a good way to clear my mind and lets me work on my storylines too.

It looks like my daughter will probably go to the University of Hawaii this fall. If this is her final decision I have decided my husband and I will move out to Arizona this fall or winter. I’m tired of the cold winters in Michigan. Besides, it’s time for a new adventure, lol. Every now and then you got to shake things up.

On the writing front:
“Whispers of Change” has been released in print as well as eBook.

Book video link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFvhux...

I’m putting the finishing touches on “Judas Kiss” which is the next book in the Master Series. This book will be released in June. Then I will begin work on “Voodoo” which is the first book in my new series Master of My Heart. I have wanted to launch this series for a while now, but I have been too inspired by my Master Series. The Master of My Heart Series will differ from the Master Series because each book in the new series is a standalone title, so it will not matter where you start in the series the stories aren’t connected. The only thing that does connect them is that the main male character is a Master. I’m really excited about this new series and can’t wait to share the first book with you. “Voodoo” will be released in August.

I will be part of the Tortured Hero Blog Hop April 25th-28th I will be giving away an autograph print copy of “Whispers of Change” and “Strict Machine” to one lucky winner.

"Whispers of Change" has been released on ebook

I came to Master Drake’s home not to serve him, but to be closer to John. John is unlike any submissive male I have ever seen before. Why I am drawn to him this way I don’t know. I am usually drawn to alpha males. I left Master Darius hoping that John would love me. The hope that a submissive male will love me, wow I am setting myself up to get my heart broke, but I have to take a chance on this.
Now that I am here there is so much going on. Master Drake, my new Master, has surprised me by his warmth and well, let’s face it, that man knows how to make love. He is given the title Master of Pleasure in this community, a title that he has more than earned. Yet, there is something going on between him and his wife Jessica. You can feel it. Maybe it has something to do with Master Logan’s divorce. Maybe, it has to do with the fact that I believe Jessica isn’t supposed to be a Mistress. I’m not about to get in the middle of that, nor will I voice my opinion on that to my new Master.
Then there are Master Drake’s pets. How in the world will I ever be able to fit in with them? There is one male named Blaze who is being so sweet to me. Thank God for his kindness because the others don’t seem to like me all that much. I really hope things work out here. Yet…I wonder if I have made a mistake leaving Master Darius.
All around this house you can almost hear the whispers of change, and it makes me uneasy.

Hello Everyone,

An early Happy Valentine’s Day!

On the writing front:

I’m putting the finishing touches on “Whispers of Change” before I send it off to the proofreader. This by far has been the hardest book to write in my Master Series. As the title suggests there are lots of changes. The way the characters pushed and pulled me through the storyline, whoa… it certainly didn’t end up as I planned, but my books rarely do, lol.

Happy New Year Everyone!

I’m looking forward to the New Year. This will be the last year I make the lose weight resolution. I’m almost at my weight goal already, so yay!

My youngest child will be graduating this year from High School. I know I will have the empty nest thing, but I’m already preparing myself for this. The hubby and I will be traveling more. I can start checking off on that travel list of mine. One of the big things on my most do list is to see the world. I got a long way to go on that list. I better get to it.

On the writing front: I have two books planned so far for the Master Series.

“Whispers of Change” which will be released in March/April. This one is about Master Drake’s side of the community as well as Master Logan dealing with the aftermath of divorce.

“Judas Kiss” which will be released in June. This one is about Master Noah and Master Judas fitting into the community.

These are just a couple books planned this year.

“Strict Machine” has been released in print. Here is the link to the book video trailer.

Music is a big source of inspiration for me. Here are a couple of songs that have inspired me. These are from different books.

“I Was Here” Beyoncé (Master Xavier’s final song. This still makes me cry when I think about that particular scene)

“Remember Everything” Five Finger Death Punch (Master Lash hears his brother Master Zen sing this song, it brings clarity to him)

“Drumming Song” Florence and the Machine (Romulus sings this for Mistress Lilith)


Have a great New Year everyone!
