…Swiftly Followed by the Second

Just as I was recovering from the awesome first review, Bite With Height received another fab review – this time from Sexyreads.co.uk.

"The personalities of the two central characters are well written and The Plot works nicely as we move from friendship, to desire, passion, romance, love and finally devotion with the rewarding ending.

Definitely one with extra bite for the heart and loin warming pile!"

It doesn't get better than 5 stars! Check out the review here.

*happy dances*

First Review for Bite With Height

Hey everyone! Hope you all had a fab weekend. I did… and then to make the 'blah' of Monday morning that much easier to bear, I got an awesome review for Bite With Height.

Happily Ever After Reviews covered it, and lovely comments include:

"Bite with Height is perfect for a sultry quick escape to Paris. I really felt I'd been there wandering the streets and exploring the eves of Sacre-Coeur. So if you have a twenty minute window and fancy some sexy vampire lesbian action I urge you to pick this one up."

Check out the rest of the review too, I'm so pleased with it! It's nice to see that one of my favourite stories has been appreciated. I just hope other readers enjoy it as much!

Happy Monday, everyone

Six Sentence Sunday – 12/6/11

My latest Noble Romance release, Bite With Height, was released this week, so it seems only fitting to give you six sentences from this erotic romance set in Paris…

Meg was hungry. Or, to be more precise, she was thirsty. Taking her usual route down the Boulevard de Clichy, she knew she'd find something suitable to drink if she waited long enough. The Pigalle area was notorious both in Paris and further afield, known for its sleazy bars, clubs, and sex shops. Most young women traveling alone would avoid it like the plague. Not Meg.

Frisky Friday!

OK, so maybe frisky was a bit of a misnomer, I'm still half asleep as it's not yet lunchtime! But *checks calendar* it's definitely Friday and I've been a busy bee this week so thought I would take a moment to breathe and post some updates on here.

Firstly, the anthology Seducing the Myth is coming along nicely, and I now have something to show you! The fabulous Jackie Adshead sent me an email the other day containing two paintings. She'd had so much fun she ended up doing two mermaid paintings! We both agreed on which was more suitable for the cover, but if you check out this link you'll be able to see both. Now it's time to get it sent off and made into a complete book cover, woohoo! I'm also toying with the idea of adding the book to a print on demand service so the people that are interested in paperback versions of the book can get it. Any thoughts or recommendations? Please let me know!

Hmm… what else have I been doing? I've been working on a couple of websites for clients and made some leaps and bounds yesterday, which is always nice!

I've also been blogging all over the place again. I'm over at Blood, Lust and Erotica today talking about Bite With Height amongst other things. You can see that interview here. I also had a little rant over at Women Writers, Women Books about the curse of the erotica writer. It seems to be resonating with a lot of people already! You can check that out here.

Other exciting things? Well, I've booked my train tickets to London for the first weekend in July to attend the reading at Sh! where I'm ridiculously excited to be meeting lots of new people, some people I 'know' online but have never met, and of course people I've met before and don't see nearly enough of! I'm also going to be attending the Erotic Meet on the Friday evening, which takes place in Soho. Being so far away, I couldn't attend the last one, but by all accounts it sounds like it was a success so I was very happy to find the next one was when I was going to London anyway. You can find out more here, and follow the hashtag #eroticmeet on Twitter.

And now… I'm going to write an erotic fairy tale, so if you'll excuse me… have a fab weekend everyone.

Totty Tuesday – John Barrowman

So, I was looking for hot gay male celebrities for this week's Totty Tuesday and narrowed it down to John Barrowman. Just in case you're wondering why I was looking particularly for gay guys, it's because it is Gay Pride Month and I wanted to do something to mark it. And what better way than to give you gay eye candy to look at?

I'm sure most of you know who this guy is, but just in case you don't, he disappointed women the world over when they found out he was gay. He's famous for appearing in Doctor Who, Torchwood and Desperate Housewives to name but a few. He's also, from what I gather, a really very nice guy.

He looks particularly sexy in this photo, methinks, but feel free to hit Google Images, there's no shortage of hot pics there… and some of them are topless

On another note, if you're looking for other ways to celebrate Gay Pride Month, why not check out some erotic fiction? I haven't penned any m/m stuff (yet), but you can find f/f stuff in Bite With Height, I Kissed A Girl, I Kissed A Girl II and Best of Both.

Bite With Height is Available Now!

I am pleased and excited to announce that Bite With Height, my erotic romance story from Noble Romance, is available now!

This little tale was inspired by my first visit to Paris, last year. I was captivated by the Sacre-Coeur to the extent that it wormed its way into my head and demanded attention until I wrote about it. And this is the result. Here's the blurb:

When Meg spots a young woman alone in the Pigalle district of Paris at night, she's intrigued. She has to know her story and find out why she looks so sad and alone. After introducing herself, Meg realizes that she and Grace have a lot in common. But when they decide to go and grab a drink together, they discover a mutual love that could bond them forever.

I'm trying very hard not to add vampire-related innuendos in to this post – I hope you admire my restraint! So, anyway, if this book with the delicious cover (same cover artist as A Bit of Rough – she's ace, isn't she?!) piques your interest, then you can buy it here.

Also, don't forget to keep your eye on the sidebar – I'm still blogging here, there and everywhere so please come say hi!

Sex Toy Review: LifeStyles A:Muse Personal Pleasure Massager

Despite its relatively innocent name, the LifeStyles A:Muse Personal Pleasure Massager is far from it. This is one sweet-looking purple toy which really packs a punch!

It has five vibration types, each with three speeds, so there's plenty to keep you busy right there! The A:Muse is great for playing with a partner, or alone. Its soft and smooth surface means that it's perfectly suitable for massage, and equally fun for use on your more intimate areas.

It's fairly quiet as vibrating toys go,  and only takes 2 x AAA batteries, which is amazing when you consider how powerful it is! It comes complete with a nice pouch, too.

Overall, I'd definitely say that the LifeStyles A:Muse Personal Pleasure Massager has more pluses than minuses – it's versatile, powerful and super-orgasmic.

In fact, the only downside is that it was really difficult to get the cover off in order to get the batteries in. I followed the instructions to the letter and still struggled, resorting to a pair of scissors in the end (please don't try this at home! ). So make sure you put the batteries in the toy well in advance of being 'in the mood' and you'll be fine. Plus, the fun that's to be had definitely makes it worth the trouble!

So if you're looking for a new toy for your box and are tired of rabbits – this is perfect. Get yourself to Lovehoney and place your order pronto!

Book Review: Nice Girls, Naughty Sex by Jordan LaRousse and Samantha Sade (eds.)

Article first published as Book Review: Nice Girls, Naughty Sex, Edited by Jordan LaRousse and Samantha Sade on Blogcritics.

Nice Girls, Naughty Sex is an erotic anthology put together and edited by Jordan LaRousse and Samantha Sade, the masterminds behind the brilliant erotic fiction and poetry site, Oysters and Chocolate.

It contains twenty naughty stories which, like the website, are divided into four sections; Vanilla (decadent romance and succulent trysts), Dirty Martini (stranger sex, fetishes, group sex, etc), Licorice Whips (domination and submission) and Oysters (lesbian and bi).

For this reason, the phrase 'something for everyone' definitely applies! There are tales of cops, prison guards, strangers, getting caught, marriage, affairs, tattoos, photographers, corsets and much more.

Jordan and Samantha have done a brilliant job selecting and editing these stories. Naturally, as you expect with multi-author anthologies, there were a couple that didn't float my boat, but the vast majority of these erotic tales were hot, hot, hot!

Stories that particularly stood out for me were:

Sommer Marsden's A Technicality, a bittersweet, heart-wrenching and yet smoking hot story of love, lust, loss and grief.

The totally scorching Behind Bars by Saranna DeWylde, a tale of two prison officers getting up no good on the job.

Heidi Champa's At a Standstill is a brilliant narrative of an everyday travel nightmare turning into something altogether more interesting.

Honeymoon Suite by Donna George Storey is unique, thrilling, fun and sexy. A lusty Sapphic tale not to be forgotten.

Jeremy Edwards' inimitable style shone through in his sweet lesbian story, Eastern Daylight Time. I loved the light, fun tone and innocent air in this sexy short.

Overall, I would say this is one book you should definitely be adding to your wishlist. There are stories for all tastes here, and each one is of an incredibly high standard. It's a great opportunity, too, to read some authors you may not have previously come across. I'd recommend this book wholeheartedly, and my copy's a definite keeper!

The Mythology Anthology Takes Shape!

For anyone that's been watching the blog with interest for more information on the mythology anthology that I'm putting together, your wait is over! I can't divulge all the details, but here's what I can tell you:

The title, thankfully, will obviously not be "mythology anthology," but Seducing the Myth. I have a fellow writer and friend to thank for that… you know who you are

My mermaid story, which will be within the anthology, is called Down By The Pool.

The lovely Jackie Adshead has kindly consented to paint a picture which I'll be using as part of the cover design. We met up last week and chatted about various things, one of which was this cover. I'd previously sent her the first draft of my story so she could get an idea of what it was all about before we spoke. By the time I arrived at her house she'd got an idea in her head of what the area was like (as the story is based in a real place) and then I promptly burst her bubble by showing her the photos and YouTube videos (see those here) I took last time I was there. Poor Jackie was quite startled to find that the lovely tree lined pool she'd envisioned in her head was actually completely tree-less and in fact very bleak and barren (read her reaction here)! Luckily, she loves painting mermaids so she wasn't too disappointed And I know I won't be… if you check out Jackie's website, you'll see why!

I can't release the table of contents just yet – though all authors have been notified. The editing process will begin very soon and when the project is further along, I'll be posting more details here.

In the meantime, check out the sidebar of my blog ——-> to see where I'm doing guest posts this month!
