Six Sentence Sunday – 22/5/11

Since you lovely lot liked last week's six so much, I'll treat you to a little more of A Bit of Rough. But that's all you're getting – I'll be posting something new next time

"How many tattoos do you have?"



"Ten."



"Let's see 'em then."



Far from ruining the moment, this gave me the chance to stare openly at his gorgeous body without appearing weird or giving him an even bigger head.



Drew pointed out every decoration and told me about each one—why he'd gotten it and when. Turns out, he'd been around more than I thought.

Uniform Behaviour Continues To Impress

I'm happy dancing yet again over here. I did a guest blog over at Book Lovers Inc. yesterday, talking about Uniform Behaviour, and Stella, the lovely lady who arranged it all, did a review for me. And I'm pretty sure she liked it!

Here's a snippet of her review:

"The writing style and quality of the novellas were usually outstanding and everyone who picks up Uniform Behaviour is in for a treat! Be it a steamy sensual story you are looking for or a scorching, explosive one, you most certainly will find one to keep you warm at night!"

Read the full thing, including a break down of each story here.

Review #3 For A Bit of Rough

OMG – I'm being completely and utterly spoiled today! Hot on the heels of the last awesome review comes another one… this time from SexyReads.co.uk:

The plot is a simple one, when you want it, you just have to have it. At any cost! But Lucy delivers more than just that with her tale of attraction to the "bad boy" the one that scratches that sexual itch but nothing more, with a nice build up things move quickly from warm to scolding as the lovers explore each other every which way possible never missing a beat this is one story that will leave you gasping, moaning and crying out for more.

YEAH!!! I'm going to sleep well tonight, I tell you. All this dancing around is wearing me out!

Review #2 For A Bit of Rough

Following a chat on the Whipped Cream Yahoo loop yesterday, the lovely Pearl dashed off to buy A Bit of Rough and it seems she devoured it almost immediately, as this five star review promptly appeared on Goodreads:

Mr Right, right now and a woman who knows what she wants and isn't afraid to grab it in both hands! What's not to love!?! Sizzling hot, -watch you don't go up in flames reading it!… But then again, -what a way to go!! Short story but so very definitely SWEET!!

Naturally, I'm delighted! My little story with its delicious cover is sending people up in flames… in a good way of course

Totty Tuesday: Bradley Cooper

Well, here's a shirtless man for you. That makes a change, doesn't it?

This here is the lovely Bradley Cooper, who doesn't make it into my top five, sadly, but he sure looks nice without a top on, doesn't he? It's nice to see a man with a hairy chest, but he's not even close to gorilla territory, thankfully.

I thought this week's choice was quite topical given the upcoming release of The Hangover Part II. For those of you not familiar, Mr. Cooper was also in The A-Team (worth a watch, even if, like me, you don't remember the show) and recently release brain-fuck film Limitless, which apparently showed he was capable of serious roles as well as comedy.

Now I shall bow out and leave you to drool, but not before drawing your attention to the right hand side of the screen, where you'll find my guest blogging calendar for this month. Please come see me on the various blogs, and join in tomorrow's chat I did give you topless Brad, after all…

TwoLipsReviews.com Reads A Bit of Rough!

Wow, A Bit of Rough has had its first review already! Exactly one week after its release over at Noble Romance, my naughty erotic story has been awarded "4 Kisses" by TwoLipsReviews.com.

Sal, the reviewer, commented:

"…a short, lusty ride. There is no promise of romance or love by Lucy Felthouse and there definitely was none to be had in this story. It is a well written piece though it presents no challenge or growth for either character.  It's simply a titillating diary entry of a weekend to be remembered."

Read the full review here.

As you'd expect, I'm happy dancing over here!

Wanna read the titillating tale for yourself? Get yourself over to the lovely new Noble Romance website, pronto!

Six Sentence Sunday – 15/5/11

Hey guys, I'm back again! I've been on holiday – and I came back and instantly jumped into promoting my latest release, A Bit of Rough.

And just because it's delicious, I've included the cover as well as six sexy sentences…

From the off, I knew my hunch about his bedroom skills had been correct. His kissing technique and every touch were sublime. Before long we were down to our underwear. That's when I got my first surprise. I knew the guy had tattoos, but—wow. He was covered in them.

Book Review: Cry Wolf by Patricia Briggs

Article first published as Book Review: Cry Wolf by Patricia Briggs on Blogcritics.

I picked up Cry Wolf partly for a book club, and partly because I read its prequel, a story in multi-author paranormal anthology, On the Prowl (review here) and was captived by Patricia Briggs' writing.

Cry Wolf is the first book (though the first story is actually in On the Prowl – it's not imperative that you read it first, but it does give you some useful background and help fill in gaps) in the Alpha & Omega series. Having finished this one, I'll definitely be adding the others to my wishlist.

The book tells the tale of Anna Latham.  She's a woman who was made into a werewolf against her will and was then physically and mentally abused by the alpha of the pack, as well as many of the other dominant wolves. So when dominant werewolf Charles comes along and takes on her evil alpha, it's Anna chance to escape. Naturally, she takes it with both hands. But there's an unexpected turn of events which bring her and Charles together on a more permanent basis, which culminates in her going home with him.

When they arrive, Anna expects that Charles will be resting up in order to heal the wounds caused by silver bullets during her rescue attempt. However, it appears that Charles is a busy man with never a dull moment in his life, as he's soon sent out on a mission to capture a rogue werewolf before it draws too much attention to their pack. Anna goes along as backup, and she's soon thrown into a scary situation which calls upon every ounce of physical and mental strength she has. But is it enough to help save Charles and the rest of the pack? Only one way to find out…

This was a great read and I thoroughly enjoyed it. You're completely thrown in at the deep end as you begin reading and the action doesn't let up, but it makes for an edge of your seat read. If you're into paranormal and you haven't read Patricia Briggs before, I definitely recommend her. Her writing is very absorbing and you'll whizz through in no time, only to wish you had the next book in the series immediately to hand. Recommended.
