High Heels and Bloodsuckers

First, let me say, I love the title of this book!
My crit partner, Casey Pendelton, wrote High Heels and Bloodsuckers and I can't tell you how proud I am of her. The story ROCKS! And I can't wait for the second in this series to be released because it has sci fi elements in it.

Vampires, aliens, and sex. Oh, my!

Below is the blurb for High Heels and Blooksuckers. Click on the the title and go buy it!

Trish never asked to be the human queen of a vampire Collective. She enjoyed her life as a wedding planner and the long-term fiancée to a prominent doctor. Even so, she can't deny the sudden thrill of sharing sexual power with hundreds of hungry night creatures turns her on.

Even more exciting than the exhibitionist appeal of her royal duties is king of the neighboring Collective. Remy becomes her mate and partner in harnessing the ritual power needed to overthrow a common foe. Little does she know the pleasure she experiences with him is just the first of many delights she will share with him and Damien, her dark-haired goth-child of an assistant.

Love, light, and laughter!

PUNISHING THE ART THIEF by Shoshanna Evers

Sister Ellora's Cave author and FB friend Shoshanna Evers has written an amazing book that I wanted to share with everyone!

Punishing the Art Thief by Shoshanna Evers
Ellora's Cave - Erotic Contemporary
ISBN: 9781419929359

Art History professor Melissa Dwyer is an old hand at crashing parties where new art will be unveiled. But her luck at never getting caught runs out when she crosses path with security guard James Tannen, who took one of her classes a few years before. James lets her crash the party, but when Melissa spots a priceless – stolen – Rembrandt and decides to make off with it, James loses his job.


Now James is on the hunt, but not for revenge. He promises Melissa that if she spends the weekend with him doing what he wants, he won't tell a soul about her stolen painting. It's blackmail and he knows it, but after years of wanting her, James isn't about to let Melissa get away. Armed with some sexy toys and a few erotic books from Melissa's library, James will use the weekend to convince his luscious art thief that his brand of "punishment" is exactly her style.

Love, light, and laughter!
