NEW RELEASE: The Lion and the Lamb
New release: The Lion and the Lamb
After suffering from an eating disorder as a teenager, Tatum Weatherton slowly starts to grow comfortable in her curvier body as an adult. With her self-confidence shot, Tatum never had a meaningful relationship, but that all changes when she starts working for Leo Castill.Leo enjoys women, and he has plenty of willing ones that work for him at the gentlemen's club he owns, The Lion and the Lamb. Everything changes when one luscious female, his mate, enters his club looking for a job. Every possessive instinct roars within him to take her, mark her, and claim her as his own.
When another lion shifter takes an interest in Tatum, Leo's lion demands to be let free and destroy the threat to his mate. But when Tatum is taken, Leo will stop at nothing to get her back, even when that means having the blood of his enemy on his hands.
Be Warned: anal sex
Excerpt:
He slammed her body against the wall, his breathing hot and heavy as it brushed along the back of her neck. Head turned to the side, Tatum kept her eyes shut as she felt his hands slide down from her shoulders to grip her waist. He pulled her ass back toward him, his erection digging into the small of her back. The sensation of his fingers tunneling into her hair sent chills dancing along her flesh. A hard tug of her hair being pulled had her head craning back. His other hand snaked around to curl his fingers around her bared throat.
What in the hell was happening? Her goal had been to get him away from Slade and talk to him, but in a quick twist of events that arousal she had been trying to deny came crashing to the front. All thoughts of Slade fled her.
“Say who makes you feel good, Tatum.” The rough timbre of his growl went straight to her pussy. Her clit throbbed, and her cunt gushed for her need to have him between her thighs. There had been so much sexual tension between them that she was on the verge of climaxing just watching him walk into a room. Despite the fact this was all she wanted, she liked the idea of teasing him.
“Not a chance.” The sting of him tightening his hand in her hair had a gasp of pleasure/pain leaving her.
“Baby, by the end of the night I’m going to have you screaming my name.” He used his leverage on her hair to turn her head to the side even more. His tongue ran up the side of her neck, and a shiver raced through her. The roughness of it had an incredible sensation coursing through her, one that had her grinding her ass against him and groaning.
“Yeah, baby, by the end of the fucking night.” He spun her around so fast dizziness claimed her. She had to blink away the fog that threatened to consume her. This was too wild and untamed for her. Tatum had never had a man make her feel like this, make her want to be fucked.
His mouth claimed hers, his tongue stroking her bottom lip. She opened for him and sucked his tongue in, loving that his spicy male flavor filled her taste buds.
Hands on his shoulders, she curled her fingers into his flesh and pulled him closer. His growl of need went through her, and she reciprocated it with one of her own. His hands were suddenly on her ass, gripping the mounds with a force that rivaled her lust. He lifted, and she wrapped her legs around his waist, their kiss never breaking. In the next moment he came forward. The cool wood of his desk meet her ass. She gripped the edge of his tee and started pulling at it like a mad woman. Whatever came over her was like a tornado of emotions, and she didn’t see it stopping anytime soon.
Ripping his mouth from hers, he tore his shirt away and went for the buckle of his belt. She was already unbuttoning her blouse and pushing it off her shoulders. Her hands went to the clasp in the back of her bra, but a slow shake of his head had her stopping. The belt slid through the loops of his jeans and clattered to the floor. He undid the button of his pants but didn’t push them down. Instead, he moved close to her until her knees brushed his legs.
“Feet flat on the desk, baby.” His grin widened when she did what he said. His hands landed on her knees, and he pushed them apart. Her muscles stretched and protested, but the burn felt oh-so-good. The skirt she wore was already bunched around her waist, so when he slid his hands down her inner thighs, he touched her bare flesh. Leaning forward, his lips were a hairbreadth away from hers. The tips of his fingers brushed the edge of her panties, and she used all her strength not to close her eyes, tilt her head back, and bare her throat to him. All she wanted was the roughness of his tongue sliding along her skin again, igniting her like a firework on the Fourth of July.
“I love your curves. The way you fill my hands makes my cock so hard I ache to be inside of you.” His eyes roamed over her body, but she didn’t feel self-conscious about how she looked. The way he spoke about her had her pussy gushing with her desire for him. He started sliding his hands over her, squeezing her body until she felt liquid beneath him. “I bet your pussy taste as good as it smells.”
The air around them heated and thickened, and she found herself wanting to have him just as aroused as she was. “Why don’t you find out?”
Never had she spoken so wantonly before, but with Leo she found she acted out of character quite frequently. A nip at her bottom lip was the only response he gave her before he dropped to his knees between her splayed thighs. He kept her legs open as he kissed her ankle then ran his tongue up her calf, over the side of her knee, and started working his way back down her inner thigh. The feel of his hot, humid breath and of his tongue leaving a trail of liquid fire all over her, had her legs shaking. She felt marked by him, like he staked his claim for all to see. Something inside of her grew warm and soft at the thought, but she knew it had to be misplaced.
Leo Castill wanted one thing from women, and normally she would have scoffed and told him to fuck-off, but she was way past that.

Ten Reasons To Read A Romance Short Story by Kiru Taye
Thank you, Jenika for hosting me today on your blog.Hello, everyone! I'm a big fan of short stories. Since the birth of my third child five months ago, my reading time has diminished. So any story that provides me with a dose of romance and get's right to the action without dragging out the story line, get's my attention. So when I found out about Evernight Publishing's short story series, Romance On The Go, I was itching to write a story for it. The opportunity came up with SCARS, my new interracial romance, the first part in the Passion Shield series.
So if you've never read a short romance story here are my top ten reasons why you should:
One:You don't have enough hours in the day to read a full length novel. Two:These are quick, straight-to-the-point and sexy reads.Three:You need a break from the longer novels.Four:You need a mental escape during your lunch break.Five:You need to kill time while waiting at the doctor's, dentist's or in the bus/train.Six:You are in between novels. They make good palette cleansers.Seven:They are cheap and some short stories are FREE. Check out Evernight Publishing for the FREE READS.Eight:Some short stories are serialised so you can still get your fix of the characters you love in other books. SCARS is part of a series. You will meet Benjamin and Selina again in Secrets, Passion Shields book 2, coming soon.Nine:Read them when you have nothing else to do.Ten:Read them when you've got to have your romance fix in bed at night.
SCARS Book BlurbShe clutches at control to cover her flaws.He wants to strip her bare because she's beautiful.
Selina Moss hides a secret beneath her controlled happy exterior. Her body is covered in scars and she's never revealed them to anyone. She's not beautiful and she doesn't want pity.However, it's her wedding night and husband, Benjamin Moss, is determined to strip down her barriers. Benjamin is not playing fair, not when he's deploying breath-stealing seduction as well as mind-melting sex toys. But will he still want her when she bares all?Adult content: Sex Toys, Spanking and Bondage.
Excerpt – Scars by Kiru Taye"There's something I need to show you in our suite upstairs." The corners of his mouth lifted in a boyish grin as the lift doors opened. Her gaze fixated on his lips—sensuously full, they were a mix of firmness on the edges and softness on the inside—and she wondered if he would kiss her.Her pulse rate skyrocketed as they rode up and he pulled her into the circle of his arms. He looked so handsome in his fitted charcoal suit, broad torso tapering at the hips. Leaning this closely to him, his taut muscles beneath the soft silk fabric offered protection as well as a glimpse of the possession to come. With her head on his shoulder, his all-male spice permeated her pores with every breath she took."You do know we can't leave our guests at the reception just for a quickie," she said. Tilting her head so she could see his face, she curled her lips in an I'd-like-you-to-take-me smile. Her womb contracted in agreement.Truth was, she needed to get laid—the hot, fast, sweaty kind. Since she agreed to marry Ben they hadn't been together, not even for a hand job. The mad rush to organise a wedding ceremony in such a short period of time, his insistence for her to move her things into his waterside penthouse apartment in Chelsea, combined with a pretty hefty schedule at work for both of them had left little time for anything else."Who says we can't?" He kissed her, a ruthless sweep of his tongue and demand of his lips. She clutched the lapels of his jacket, hanging on as sensation assaulted her. Beneath her dress, her lacy thong got soaked as she squirmed against him. She'd worn the skimpy underwear to avoid panty-lines showing through her dress. Perhaps she should've chosen something sturdier like French knickers.When he lifted his head, she was breathless, panting."Ben?" she asked when she finally got her voice back.The dark colour of his suit emphasised the intensity of his eyes and complemented his tanned skin. With his South African heritage, his skin tone was always on the golden side, despite the recent bad weather and lack of sunshine."No. But I've got the next best thing for you." They stepped out of the lift, and he opened the door to the bridal suite. She followed him in, heart pounding in excitement."By the time the reception is over, you'll be begging me to fuck you."

******
Adult Excerpt:
Kyle took a deep breath to steady his excitement then slowly unfastened Ryder’s jeans. He pulled them down just a bit, low enough to remove the semi-hard cock from Ryder’s boxers. The shaft stiffened in the palm of Kyle’s hand, and he liked the feel of the delicate flesh against his own skin. He slowly tightened his gripped and began to stroke. “Shit.” Ryder moaned again, and rolled his hips. Kyle watched Ryder’s expression as his movements hastened. Ryder, this strong, mountain of a man, who dominated the basketball court, and practically mopped the floor with Kyle every time they played, literally melted in Kyle’s hand.Exhilarated by that extra confidence, Kyle found the courage to take the next step. The natural step he’d wanted to take since he first laid eyes on the other man’s cock. Kyle licked his lips, then flicked the head of Ryder’s dick with his tongue.Ryder shuddered.Kyle lapped the salty surface of Ryder’s crown then encircled it with his lips, until he lowered his head, and drew half of the fleshy shaft into his mouth. “Fuck.”Kyle’s ears rang, and his heartbeat boomed like a bass drum inside his head. The more he sucked in, the louder Ryder’s groans became, thrilling Kyle even more. Ryder made a hissing sound. “Careful with the teeth.” Kyle corrected his technique and covered the thick shaft with his lips instead, then dove back down for another plunge.“Mmm.” Ryder bucked his hips, forcing himself deeper into Kyle’s mouth. “Yeah, that’s it.”Kyle’s eyes watered as Ryder’s cock bumped the back of his throat, flooding his mouth with Ryder’s salty-sweet essence.Ryder grasped the back of Kyle’s head and shoved himself in harder. “Feels so fucking good.”Kyle gripped the base, and used his hand to jack Ryder off as he continued to suck and lick, until Ryder abruptly pulled back, and stopped him.“What?” Kyle’s mind whirled, and he fought to take Ryder’s cock back into his mouth.Ryder’s stomach muscles rolled, and his breathing deepened. He inhaled deeply before speaking. “You’ve seriously never done this before?” Disbelief resonated in his tone. Was he serious? He’s asking this now? “Never.” “Shit.” Ryder licked his lips, his eyes glazed over. “So that means,” Ryder skimmed his thumb over Kyle’s tingling bottom lip, “nobody’s ever done it to you either.”Kyle drew in a deep breath, doing his best not to bust a nut just at the thought of it. “No.” A gleam sparked in Ryder’s eyes “Lie back.”Chills wreaked havoc across Kyle’s flesh. Oh shit.Ryder’s eyes danced back and forth as though searching Kyle’s for an answer to a question he hadn’t bothered to ask. His brow bunched, and he eased closer. “Just don’t forget to breathe.”

Alternative PG Excerpt:
“Some of these guys come from Liberty County, others from Houston. This is the only center implementing this program, but if it turns out to be successful, they might start popping up everywhere.” Kyle half-assed listened to Reesa, while trying to come up with an excuse to cut out early, and find somewhere to be alone. He nodded, for no other reason than to appease her.“If that happens, I plan to be a part of it. That’s why I changed my major to behavioral science.”Kyle paused. Now she had his attention. “Wait? You’re not going to be a nurse?”Reesa took a deep breath. “I want to make a difference for Wade.” She looked around the room. “And these people need someone willing to make a difference for them, too.”“What about what you need?” She squeezed his hand. “This is what I need, Kyle.”Kyle searched her green eyes. Her sincerity warmed him somehow, but he still didn’t get how she’d be able to handle all the emotional crap that had to go along with getting too involved. It was hard enough living with Wade’s death. How could she deal with the same kind of emotions coming from so many other people? Complete strangers?He nodded, not to agree, but to eliminate the concern that now filled her eyes. “I guess if anyone could do something like that, it would be you.”“Good. I’m glad you think that. It means a lot to me.” Reesa’s attention quickly turned to someone across the room, and her face instantly brightened. “Hey, stranger.” She let go of Kyle’s hand and darted away.Kyle’s gaze followed her, and he froze the second he saw who she had spoken to. The guy from the basketball court. Ryder.Kyle’s insides fluttered as Ryder glanced over at him.Reesa dragged Ryder by the arm. His initial resistance was clearly futile, and the bashful grin did little to hide the pink tinge on Ryder’s cheeks.“Kyle, this is my new friend, Ryder.”Kyle’s palms moistened. “Yeah. We’ve already met.”Ryder gave Kyle a quick nod. “Are you hoping for a rematch?”“Rematch?” The inflexion of Reesa’s inquisitive tone rivaled the look of intrigue highlighting her green eyes. “Yeah, we played a game of one on one at the courts by my apartment the other night.” Ryder’s nostrils flared, and he appeared a bit smug. “I believe I won. Right?”Kyle’s mouth watered at the memory of Ryder’s glistening abs when he’d lifted his shirt to wipe the perspiration from his brow. “He barely won. And that was only because it was right after—” The words caught in the back of Kyle’s throat, and a sudden feeling of nausea swept over him. He fidgeted and glanced down at Reesa, his mood darkening right on the spot. “Um, it was Tuesday evening.” He swallowed hard, doing his best not to throw up as an acidic burn now scorched the back of his throat.Reesa’s auburn brow arched, and her lips turned up into shaky smile. “Oh. Okay.” The thought of that day had understandably struck a nerve for her, too.“Yeah, well maybe we can have that rematch after you’ve rested up or something. Maybe a nap would help.” Was that a jab at Kyle’s baby-faced looks?Ryder’s boyish smirk remained plastered across his face, easing Kyle’s angst immediately.“Whatever, man.” Kyle managed a chuckle. “You just got lucky, that’s all.”“Oh, is that your story?” Ryder seemed to physically gravitate toward Kyle, or was it Kyle’s imagination—or wishful thinking? Ryder’s cologne wafted toward him, a scent Kyle could spot anywhere. “I guess we’ll just have to see.”“Okay, boys.” Reesa took them both by the arm, and walked between them. “I say we go to lunch and discuss this little rematch further.”Kyle glanced at Ryder over the top of Reesa’s head. The instant he found Ryder already looking in his direction, Kyle’s face warmed, and he quickly looked away. There was something about the other man’s gaze, something sincere and exciting, and the more Kyle thought about it, the more he liked it.

The instant he found Ryder already looking in his direction, Kyle’s face warmed, and he quickly looked away. There was something about the other man’s gaze, something sincere and exciting, and the more Kyle thought about it, the more he liked it.

Adult Excerpt:
Kyle took a deep breath to steady his excitement then slowly unfastened Ryder’s jeans. He pulled them down just a bit, low enough to remove the semi-hard cock from Ryder’s boxers. The shaft stiffened in the palm of Kyle’s hand, and he liked the feel of the delicate flesh against his own skin. He slowly tightened his gripped and began to stroke. “Shit.” Ryder moaned again, and rolled his hips. Kyle watched Ryder’s expression as his movements hastened. Ryder, this strong, mountain of a man, who dominated the basketball court, and practically mopped the floor with Kyle every time they played, literally melted in Kyle’s hand.Exhilarated by that extra confidence, Kyle found the courage to take the next step. The natural step he’d wanted to take since he first laid eyes on the other man’s cock. Kyle licked his lips, then flicked the head of Ryder’s dick with his tongue.Ryder shuddered.Kyle lapped the salty surface of Ryder’s crown then encircled it with his lips, until he lowered his head, and drew half of the fleshy shaft into his mouth. “Fuck.”Kyle’s ears rang, and his heartbeat boomed like a bass drum inside his head. The more he sucked in, the louder Ryder’s groans became, thrilling Kyle even more. Ryder made a hissing sound. “Careful with the teeth.” Kyle corrected his technique and covered the thick shaft with his lips instead, then dove back down for another plunge.“Mmm.” Ryder bucked his hips, forcing himself deeper into Kyle’s mouth. “Yeah, that’s it.”Kyle’s eyes watered as Ryder’s cock bumped the back of his throat, flooding his mouth with Ryder’s salty-sweet essence.Ryder grasped the back of Kyle’s head and shoved himself in harder. “Feels so fucking good.”Kyle gripped the base, and used his hand to jack Ryder off as he continued to suck and lick, until Ryder abruptly pulled back, and stopped him.“What?” Kyle’s mind whirled, and he fought to take Ryder’s cock back into his mouth.Ryder’s stomach muscles rolled, and his breathing deepened. He inhaled deeply before speaking. “You’ve seriously never done this before?” Disbelief resonated in his tone. Was he serious? He’s asking this now? “Never.” “Shit.” Ryder licked his lips, his eyes glazed over. “So that means,” Ryder skimmed his thumb over Kyle’s tingling bottom lip, “nobody’s ever done it to you either.”Kyle drew in a deep breath, doing his best not to bust a nut just at the thought of it. “No.” A gleam sparked in Ryder’s eyes “Lie back.”Chills wreaked havoc across Kyle’s flesh. Oh shit.Ryder’s eyes danced back and forth as though searching Kyle’s for an answer to a question he hadn’t bothered to ask. His brow bunched, and he eased closer. “Just don’t forget to breathe.”

Alternative PG Excerpt:
“Some of these guys come from Liberty County, others from Houston. This is the only center implementing this program, but if it turns out to be successful, they might start popping up everywhere.” Kyle half-assed listened to Reesa, while trying to come up with an excuse to cut out early, and find somewhere to be alone. He nodded, for no other reason than to appease her.“If that happens, I plan to be a part of it. That’s why I changed my major to behavioral science.”Kyle paused. Now she had his attention. “Wait? You’re not going to be a nurse?”Reesa took a deep breath. “I want to make a difference for Wade.” She looked around the room. “And these people need someone willing to make a difference for them, too.”“What about what you need?” She squeezed his hand. “This is what I need, Kyle.”Kyle searched her green eyes. Her sincerity warmed him somehow, but he still didn’t get how she’d be able to handle all the emotional crap that had to go along with getting too involved. It was hard enough living with Wade’s death. How could she deal with the same kind of emotions coming from so many other people? Complete strangers?He nodded, not to agree, but to eliminate the concern that now filled her eyes. “I guess if anyone could do something like that, it would be you.”“Good. I’m glad you think that. It means a lot to me.” Reesa’s attention quickly turned to someone across the room, and her face instantly brightened. “Hey, stranger.” She let go of Kyle’s hand and darted away.Kyle’s gaze followed her, and he froze the second he saw who she had spoken to. The guy from the basketball court. Ryder.Kyle’s insides fluttered as Ryder glanced over at him.Reesa dragged Ryder by the arm. His initial resistance was clearly futile, and the bashful grin did little to hide the pink tinge on Ryder’s cheeks.“Kyle, this is my new friend, Ryder.”Kyle’s palms moistened. “Yeah. We’ve already met.”Ryder gave Kyle a quick nod. “Are you hoping for a rematch?”“Rematch?” The inflexion of Reesa’s inquisitive tone rivaled the look of intrigue highlighting her green eyes. “Yeah, we played a game of one on one at the courts by my apartment the other night.” Ryder’s nostrils flared, and he appeared a bit smug. “I believe I won. Right?”Kyle’s mouth watered at the memory of Ryder’s glistening abs when he’d lifted his shirt to wipe the perspiration from his brow. “He barely won. And that was only because it was right after—” The words caught in the back of Kyle’s throat, and a sudden feeling of nausea swept over him. He fidgeted and glanced down at Reesa, his mood darkening right on the spot. “Um, it was Tuesday evening.” He swallowed hard, doing his best not to throw up as an acidic burn now scorched the back of his throat.Reesa’s auburn brow arched, and her lips turned up into shaky smile. “Oh. Okay.” The thought of that day had understandably struck a nerve for her, too.“Yeah, well maybe we can have that rematch after you’ve rested up or something. Maybe a nap would help.” Was that a jab at Kyle’s baby-faced looks?Ryder’s boyish smirk remained plastered across his face, easing Kyle’s angst immediately.“Whatever, man.” Kyle managed a chuckle. “You just got lucky, that’s all.”“Oh, is that your story?” Ryder seemed to physically gravitate toward Kyle, or was it Kyle’s imagination—or wishful thinking?

Fighting DestinyMMF contemporary shifter erotic romance
Blurb:Jeremy left his small hometown ten years ago determined to get away from the female child who is his predestined mate. But Natalia, a rare tiger shifter, has been kidnapped and Jeremy chooses to return to help the land shifter pack find her. What he doesn't expect when he returns home, is his attraction to Natalia's boyfriend Tommy and the fact that his tiger mate is still unclaimed. Jeremy finds himself falling in love with both Tommy and Natalia, yet the rival shifters of the sky seem determined to rip them from him.
Excerpt:“Why the hell not? I know you want me, too, Natalia. I can smell you.”Jeremy stalked straight across the room and grabbed Natalia up into his arms. He lifted her, and she wrapped her legs around him, pulling his lips down to hers. “I do want you, you big idiot!”Jeremy plunged his tongue deep into her mouth. Natalia was desperate to feel his passion, to know it was as strong as hers.She sucked hard on his tongue and scraped her nails hard down his back. She wanted to mark him, possess him, let everyone know that he was hers.Jeremy groaned against her lips and squeezed her ass hard.A movement behind them must have caught Jeremy’s attention, and he turned, pulling his mouth from Natalia’s.It was Tommy, and something within Natalia grew hungrier.Natalia climbed off her tiger and ran straight over to her wolf. She had them both. It was all coming together.“Tommy.” She kissed him gently on the mouth, but he pulled away quickly and stepped towards Jeremy.“I know, I’m not a tiger, and you may not want me. But please. I need to be with Natalia, too.”Natalia was shocked. Why was he asking Jeremy and not her? She should be the one to decide.So she was surprised once again when Jeremy moved towards Tommy and took him into his arms. He pulled Tommy’s head against his shoulder and cradled him like you would a babe, or a lover.“You were very brave today. I was very proud of you.”Natalia’s mind was whirling with the implications. Could the men want to be lovers also? How would that work? She shook her head to clear the thoughts and continued to watch. Tonight was about her. Her tiger would take her virginity, and then she would deal with her men tomorrow.After a minute of cuddling, where Tommy’s eyes were shut for most of it, he finally pushed out of Jeremy’s arms.“Thank you, but what do you say to me joining you?”Jeremy looked towards her, his eyes searching. He knew her love for Tommy ran deep. She had told him as much. “It’s Natalia’s choice. If she wants you as her mate also, I will accept it.”Pure happiness pulsed within Natalia, and she felt her pussy begin to heat and throb. She would take them both tonight.She nodded and gave them her biggest smile. “Yes, I want you both.”Jeremy nodded and stepped towards her.“Then tomorrow you will bind to us both in front of the whole community, and we will vow to protect you forever.”She nodded, overwhelmed by how swiftly she had gotten everything she had ever wanted. To think that only yesterday she was in the very pit of despair and now her world was on the verge of being complete. Jeremy turned to Tommy.“And tonight?” Tommy asked, his breath catching in his throat in excitement.Jeremy growled deep in his chest.“Tonight we claim her flesh as our own. But I fill her first.”

Guest author, Kastil Eavenshade
I'd like to introduce Kastil Eavenshade today!
Thanks for having me, Jenika! It's a real honor.
I have never fathomed doing a series of anything, beyond doing a couple naughty fairytales that aren't remotely related. My muse doesn't work that way generally. He's the wishy-washy sort that I struggle to stay the course on whatever novel I've started.
Much like Talbot's Ploy, Talbot's Seduction was originally a submission to an anthology, and was rejected because it had more potential according to the publisher. One question kept coming up not only in my head but of those who read the first novel. How did Talbot become the driven man he was in that novel? Okay, maybe the words weren't that subdued. Cue my muse's devious little idea for the beginning of Talbot Sauvageot.
I had already established that Talbot accepted his preference for men under the tutelage of his teacher. He'd babbled before but did it more to banish the thoughts by giving into his urges. All it did was intensify his want and need for a male companion. That would be the pinnacle of him unleashing who he was once and for all.
Writing this prequel taught me a few things. First, I really love doing the research needed to properly do a historical novel. Two, writing m/m is a sweet sensation. I don't want to have boundaries in my erotic writing, sticking to a m/f sort of life. There's way too many spices out there to just sprinkle the common kind. And I have another idea for what happens next with this character…as soon as I tie my muse down.
Talbot Sauvageot is a young Lord living in Paris, France in search of anything but the duties of his station. He spends his time drinking and whoring, his memory of the last evening always a blur. When he is tricked by his betrothed’s father, Talbot realizes his heart beats not for the velvety folds of a woman but the hardened shaft of a man. Now he must find a balance in a world that condemns a man to death should he dabble in sodomy. His desires are unleashed tenfold when his Friend Tyeis shares his same interests in a bedmate.PURCHASE LINKS:

EXCERPT: "My, all alone, Seigneur Sauvageot. No one suit you this eve?"An arm snaked around his, and Talbot glanced at his intruder. Her eyes told him who she was. "Fancy meeting you here, Delphine. I would not think one as yourself would get an invite." She appeared much differently than in the maison. At her brothel, her hair had cascaded down her back, and her makeup had been soft and alluring. At the party, she wore a tall powdered wig of white to match her elegant pearled dress. White makeup covered her features. Had she not spoken to Talbot at great lengths, he wouldn't have recognized her at all.She slapped him lightly with her fan. "My contacts would surprise you, my Lord.""It seems so.""Walk with me onto the terrace?""As the lady wishes." Talbot put his palm on her hand to pull her closer and led them out into the open air. Void of anyone else, they had nothing but the stars to keep watch on them. She released herself from his grip and turned to face him, a small grin on her lips."You quite enjoyed yourself at my establishment." Her fan fluttered out in a coy fashion."Should we speak of matters such as that in an open setting?" Talbot glanced around, fearing someone might have snuck to the terrace."No one will bother us here." She used the fan to get his attention. "I am glad that you did. I must protect my assets. Too many men come in hopes of sending someone to their deaths and I thought as much from you but…" She laughed. "That was too real to fake."Talbot felt the heat in his cheeks rise. "You watched?""I always watch a guest's first fuck unless I am the one giving. I protect my workers, Talbot. Too many prey on them not to. I would have shot you on sight should you have proved to have ill intent.""Hardly." Talbot scoffed. "Someone of my station found dead would lead to an investigation.""Unless that person was a known womanizer and drunkard. Duels happen, Talbot. Deaths happen." She stared at him, her fan moving in a tight clip. "The Seine washes away them all.""So you come to taunt me then? Blackmail?""Non. Bassett's usual companions are much older than you. It was refreshing to converse with someone more of age. Are you to visit again soon?"Talbot chuckled. "I planned to until this invite came. Declining Lady Brigitte was not in my best interests.""How so?""It is no secret that the Lady is seeking a husband, and my last engagement is quite through." He leaned against the rail. The heavenly scent of flowering blossoms filled his nostrils."So you seek to make like a man who wishes a wife whilst visiting my establishment at night?""Non. I am not interested in marrying any woman, whether my tastes yearned for the sweet honey betwixt their legs or not. Especially one as demanding as Lady Brigitte.""What makes you think she is so?"Talbot rubbed his fingertips together. Delphine seemed so familiar a friend yet they only met but a week or so ago. Perhaps it was partly due to the secret she held for him. "Any woman who has not found her husband at her age could be so. I have heard of her temper and want to cow a man. Men are not meant to be underfoot by a woman."Delphine's laugh had Talbot glancing her way. Her lips were tight, and her eyes held no mirth."How little you know." She narrowed her eyes. "Perhaps it is because man cannot satisfy her. His cock too commanding over his sense to treat her as nothing more than a common whore. Or perhaps, young rake, she had tastes far beyond what a male offers.""I doubt it." He rolled his eyes."Oh." She leaned in close, her voice tight. "Bold words from a man who prefers a cock in his ass over burying his own shaft into a willing cunt."

Description:Shane and Leo have been best friends forever: through high school, dating disasters, and family losses. Lately though, Shane has been feeling more and more unsettled. His girlfriend dumped him because he wouldn’t spank her, and he can’t stop thinking about the kiss he and Leo shared in high school, long before life happened and they grew up.When Leo confronts Shane about his depression, the whole, unpleasant story about the breakup comes spilling out. Leo offers to spank Shane so he can understand the appeal, and shockingly, Shane wants to agree, but both of them are straight and he’s not sure it’s a good idea. Besides, he’s not into pain and he feels weird asking his best friend for sexual advice—Leo is too important to him to risk their friendship over something like this. So what if he can’t figure out why the idea is so intriguing? Be Warned: light BDSM, spanking, breath play ________________Author Details:Erin M.

He wasn’t sure if he was trying to convince himself or Shane.Shane snorted. “Um, sure. No problem. You’re about to spank me, God help us both, and you’re telling me to relax?”“Okay then, don’t relax. I don’t think it will make a difference,” Leo said, abruptly amused. What the hell were they doing? This was crazy. “Christ, how much did we drink tonight?”Shane burst out laughing. “Not that much. Not nearly enough. In fact, I think we need to drink more.” He made as if to get off the bed, but Leo pushed down on his shoulders, preventing him from moving. Shane immediately buried his head in his pillows, shoulders still shaking from laughter.And fuck if he doesn’t look fucking fantastic on my bed, burrowed into my pillows. God, I’m going to lose it tonight, Leo thought. He sat on the bed, ignoring the way Shane froze as the mattress dipped under his weight. “I promise I won’t hurt you.”Shane lifted his face and glanced at him, then buried his face in the crook of his elbow. “I thought that was the point,” came his muffled response.Leo ran his palm from Shane’s shoulder to his waist. Damn, the man was fine. And warm. So damn warm… “You know what I mean,” he murmured, massaging Shane’s back. His friend was so tense Leo half expected him to sprain something if he didn’t relax.Shane shrugged. From Leo’s point of view, the movement highlighted his friend’s impeccably toned back. He sighed as his cock gave an interested twitch, then raised his hand and brought it down firmly on Shane’s backside.Shane yelped, thighs twitching. “Give a guy some warning!”Leo smacked him again. “Warning you will only make you tense up.”Shane made a muffled sound.“What did you say?” Leo asked, bringing his hand down again. He wished he could see through Shane’s jeans. He wanted to watch his friend’s skin get rosy and hot. Jesus. He closed his eyes, idly rubbing the spot where he’d spanked Shane.“I said, wouldn’t this be better if I took off my jeans?”Leo’s throat closed up. He coughed. “Yeah,” he croaked, unbelievably turned on. “Probably.” He had no blood left in his brain for thinking.“Close your eyes,” Shane said.Leo frowned, hand still rubbing over Shane’s ass. “What?”“Close your eyes. I can’t do this with you staring at me.”Leo blinked. “That makes no sense. I’ve seen you naked before.”“Just fucking close your eyes, okay?” Shane asked, sounding frustrated.Leo took a deep breath and humored him. “Fine. My eyes are closed.” He felt Shane pull away from him, then heard a rustle of fabric. The mattress bounced and he put his hands in his lap, hoping Shane couldn’t tell how aroused he was.“Okay,” Shane said nervously.Leo opened his eyes and gasped. Shane was lying on his stomach completely nude. He let his eyes roam up and down his body, finally coming to rest on the glowing pink of Shane’s ass.“Don’t just stare,” Shane said, sounding even more tentative.Leo felt his hand move as if in a dream, coming down on Shane’s left buttock firmly. The smack echoed through the room. Shane jumped.“Oh God,” he moaned, so softly Leo wasn’t sure he hadn’t imagined it. He let his hand caress the skin, enjoying the way Shane’s soft hair felt on his palm. He was golden all over, soft hair covering up sleek muscles. Without giving any warning, he spanked Shane again, on the right side of his ass this time. The imprint of his hand showed up beautifully on Shane’s perfect skin.

Description:Shane and Leo have been best friends forever: through high school, dating disasters, and family losses. Lately though, Shane has been feeling more and more unsettled. His girlfriend dumped him because he wouldn’t spank her, and he can’t stop thinking about the kiss he and Leo shared in high school, long before life happened and they grew up.When Leo confronts Shane about his depression, the whole, unpleasant story about the breakup comes spilling out. Leo offers to spank Shane so he can understand the appeal, and shockingly, Shane wants to agree, but both of them are straight and he’s not sure it’s a good idea. Besides, he’s not into pain and he feels weird asking his best friend for sexual advice—Leo is too important to him to risk their friendship over something like this. So what if he can’t figure out why the idea is so intriguing? Be Warned: light BDSM, spanking, breath play ________________Author Details:Erin M.

He wasn’t sure if he was trying to convince himself or Shane.Shane snorted. “Um, sure. No problem. You’re about to spank me, God help us both, and you’re telling me to relax?”“Okay then, don’t relax. I don’t think it will make a difference,” Leo said, abruptly amused. What the hell were they doing? This was crazy. “Christ, how much did we drink tonight?”Shane burst out laughing. “Not that much. Not nearly enough. In fact, I think we need to drink more.” He made as if to get off the bed, but Leo pushed down on his shoulders, preventing him from moving. Shane immediately buried his head in his pillows, shoulders still shaking from laughter.And fuck if he doesn’t look fucking fantastic on my bed, burrowed into my pillows. God, I’m going to lose it tonight, Leo thought. He sat on the bed, ignoring the way Shane froze as the mattress dipped under his weight. “I promise I won’t hurt you.”Shane lifted his face and glanced at him, then buried his face in the crook of his elbow. “I thought that was the point,” came his muffled response.Leo ran his palm from Shane’s shoulder to his waist. Damn, the man was fine. And warm. So damn warm… “You know what I mean,” he murmured, massaging Shane’s back. His friend was so tense Leo half expected him to sprain something if he didn’t relax.Shane shrugged. From Leo’s point of view, the movement highlighted his friend’s impeccably toned back. He sighed as his cock gave an interested twitch, then raised his hand and brought it down firmly on Shane’s backside.Shane yelped, thighs twitching. “Give a guy some warning!”Leo smacked him again. “Warning you will only make you tense up.”Shane made a muffled sound.“What did you say?” Leo asked, bringing his hand down again. He wished he could see through Shane’s jeans. He wanted to watch his friend’s skin get rosy and hot. Jesus. He closed his eyes, idly rubbing the spot where he’d spanked Shane.“I said, wouldn’t this be better if I took off my jeans?”Leo’s throat closed up. He coughed. “Yeah,” he croaked, unbelievably turned on. “Probably.” He had no blood left in his brain for thinking.“Close your eyes,” Shane said.Leo frowned, hand still rubbing over Shane’s ass. “What?”“Close your eyes. I can’t do this with you staring at me.”Leo blinked. “That makes no sense.

Feel the Heat in Las Vegas!
The Sunset ladies are back, and this time it’s Seana’s turn. She’s heading up to a resort on Mount Charleston with her cousin and a friend to participate in a 1NightStand date her other cousin set her up on. Get ready to feel the heat…~ Blurb for Sunset Heat – a 1NightStand story from Decadent Publishing & book 4 in the ‘Sunset’ series ~(Book Content: Contemporary, Erotic, Chick Lit, Romance)
Can one night transform a woman’s life?
* Seana Tramonto feels doomed when it comes to relationships. When she’s set up through the 1Night Stand service, she’s apprehensive at best. Her concern turns to ire when her match turns out to be a man who broke her heart years ago. Old wounds are slow to heal no matter how sexy the man asking for forgiveness.
* Zachary Russo, a Las Vegas policeman, is talked into doing a 1NS date. When he learns it’s with his high school tutor and friend, the girl he stood up before the Homecoming dance, he’s determined to make it up to her. But seeing her again opens his eyes to the sexy woman she’s become. Can he prove he’s grown up or will circumstance beyond his control kill their second chance?~ Excerpt ~* “I had it bad for you.”
* “So, what’s your wish now?”
* If she leaned toward him, turned just enough, maybe he’d kiss her. Did she have the nerve? What would he think of her advance?
* “Seana?”
* She closed her eyes, relishing the silky way he spoke her name. “Hmm?”
* “Your wish. You’re going to enter the drawing the charity is having, right?”
* “I can’t say or it won’t come true,” she murmured. Just move your face toward his. Do it!Though her inner diva cheered her on, she couldn’t.
* “A superstition for shooting stars and birthday candles.”
* “So? I don’t want to take chances.” Yes you do, her inner cheerleader chided.
* He brushed his cheek against hers. Warm breath caressed her ear. Restless throbs of desire pulsed in her veins. Sexual excitement curled in her womb. It’d been quite some time since feeling those particular sensations. Who’d I do it with last? Oh, the guy in the off-Broadway showing of West Side Story. Antonio something or other. She’d almost told him she loved him, but his ex-girlfriend came back into the picture, which snipped her out of it.
* Could Zach be her one? Even after all this time and despite their difficulties? Back when she’d helped him in high school, she’d wanted him and would have given him her all. She didn’t feel any different now. Turning her face toward his finally, she prepared for the first of what she hoped would be many kisses. None came. He wasn’t as close as she thought. Seana stared into his eyes, becoming lost in their depths.
* “Seana?”
* “Yes?” She breathed in his spicy, clean scent, wanting to nibble on the muscle stretching from his neck into the top of his white dress shirt.
* “Tell me more about the tutoring room.”
* “Why? Interested in playing out my fantasy?”
* Zach rubbed her knee. His touch seared her skin under her black sequined dress. “But we’re not in a school. There are no classrooms to use.”
* The scenario she’d envisioned as a young adult awaited her next move. If there’s ever a time to be bold and spontaneous, it’s now. Quit stalling and take the leap. Feeling naughty and way too frisky to miss the opportunity, she drew circles on his leg with her fingertip. “We can improvise by going up to your room or mine and pretending we’re in a classroom.”
* Seconds clicked by. Zach didn’t say a word. Wasn’t he interested? Her palms became clammy.I can’t be rejected again.

EROTIC ROMANCE AUTHOR, JESSICA JAYNE!
Board Stiff – Taking Advantage, Book 1 by Jessica JayneRomance on the Go – Evernight Publishing
Blurb:John Dorsey’s life is good. He is the owner of Dorsey Construction. He’s the youngest person on the board of directors for Advantage Insurance Company. He lives on the beach. And he knows he can have any woman he wants. John’s got the world at his fingertips… except he’s yet to find a woman that stimulates both his body and mind.
Elizabeth Wright worked hard in a large Tampa law firm making a name for herself, but it came at the expense of her personal life. When Advantage Insurance Company offers her a job as corporate counsel, Elizabeth cannot turn it down. The thought that she can have a successful legal career and a life excites and intimidates her.
But when their worlds collide one day in the Advantage board room, neither Elizabeth nor John knows what’s hit them. All they know is they can’t stay away from each other.
Excerpt:
“Are you seeing anyone? Sleeping with anyone?” he asked further. “What?” she said, standing up from her chair. Her face was incapable of hiding her shock at his questions. Her green eyes were wide. Her lips parted. “What sort of questions are these?” John’s stride made short use of the distance between them. He stood directly in front of her, cornering her behind her desk. He looked down into her green eyes. They were gorgeous… she was gorgeous. And he had every intention of claiming her. “Answer my questions, Elizabeth. Are you seeing anyone?” He watched as her eyes widened even further with shock at his determination to get answers to his questions. Nervousness flittered across her face, but her breath came out in short pants as if his close proximity affected her. He watched as her chest rose and fell with each breath. God, he wanted to feel her body against his. He just knew she would feel perfect against him… in his arms. “Your questions are inappropriate,” she replied sharply. Despite her body giving her attraction away, she held firm. He liked that. He liked a woman that wasn’t too easy of a catch. “I agree,” he said, impatiently. “They are inappropriate. I need the answers nonetheless.” “Why?” she asked. Her gaze scanned his face as if looking for the answer to her question. “Answer me,” he demanded. His hand reached out and caressed her cheek as if to soothe the harshness of his words. “You are way out of line, Mr. Dorsey,” Elizabeth said. “Yes, I know,” he said a little softer this time. His fingers tucked a few strands of her hair behind her ear. His gaze dropped to her bared neck. He had to fight the urge to nuzzle the spot just below her ear. “But I need to know if there are any obstacles to making you mine. Are you seeing anyone?” “No,” she whispered. “I’m not seeing anyone.” Her lips parted for a moment before she bit down on her lower lip. That was almost his undoing. “Are you fucking anyone?” he asked. She released her bottom lip and sucked in a breath when he asked that question. Her gaze fell from his eyes to his lips and then to her hands. He placed his fingers under her chin and tilted her head up to meet his gaze again. He wanted to see her eyes when she answered him. There was heat in her gaze, and that thrilled him. “No, Mr. Dorsey, I’m not fucking anyone at the moment,” she said. Her voice was hard, but he heard the desire in it and that snapped his restraint. His hand weaved into her hair until his palm gripped the back of her head, pulling her into him. His mouth slammed down on hers. Her full lips were soft and pliable, and his tongue flicked out over her lips to taste her. She tasted so sweet…like candy.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to travel. And I love sharing my love to travel with my children. I love to drink Teavana teas!
