A New Feature Announcement

It seems that Wednesdays have evolved into guest author days so I'm just going to make this a permanent, ongoing thing. From now on Wednesdays are your day to stop by and check out hot releases from all of my author friends.


And even cooler, most of these lovely authors often giveaway free books just for stopping by. Which is, as I'm sure you'll agree, pretty fucking awesome.


I welcome any of you reading this to drop me an email if you'd like to come over and play some fine Wednesday!


I do love hosting a good party!

Yay! Cocktails for everyone!

Moonlight and Merlot


The continuing saga of the lives, loves and heartbreaks of the residents of Dion Valley, CA.


As with all the best things in life, this is for adults only.


*****


Twilight had come to the Valley.


Lela sat before the Alter, staring off into the horizon. Soon her friends would arrive. Soon it would begin.


She ran her fingertips over the cover of the ancient grimoire she held tightly against her chest. A sizzling prickle of power raced along her nerve endings, making her shiver. It was good feeling, though darkly erotic. Sexual. Dangerous.


She looked toward the sound of approaching footsteps and watched Phoebe and Zach emerge from the forest. Phoebe was her usual bouncy self, but Zach looked haggard, drained. It almost seemed like some of his vital life energy had been sucked right out him. She wondered what kind of kinky crazy sex they had been up to the night before. It must have been something epic.


"Where's Nick?" Phoebe asked and Lela did not miss the look Zach shot at his girlfriend. Epic sex or not, they obviously still had issues to sort out.


"I'm here," Nick said, joining them at the Alter. Lela couldn't help but smile. Just looking at him made her feel all warm and tingly inside. She was truly a lucky woman.


She looked at each of her friends in turn. She loved them all in very different and individual ways and she felt that love returned in each of their gazes. She had chosen correctly. She could almost taste the immense power between the four of them.


Lela set the book down before her, spread her arms and raised her hands toward the heavens. She took a deep breath and exhaled out all of her anxiety. She was ready to begin.


[Until next Tuesday...]

Special Guest Taryn Kincaid

I am so excited to have one the stars of Six Sentence Sunday, one of my favorite authors TARYN KINCAID here with me today!


TarynKinciad: And I'm so happy to be here. Sandwiched in between the hot, hunky, naked men with astounding packages, as it were!


LisaFox: So, tell us about you. Who is Taryn Kincaid?


TK: I couldn't precisely tell you who Taryn is. But Kincaid is the street I grew up on.  Honest to Betsy. (I couldn't precisely tell you who Betsy is, either. Except that she is NOT the street I grew up on.)


LF: You are a romance author, but do you consider yourself a romantic?


TK: Only in the Disney sense.


LF: Adam, your hero in HEALING HEARTS, is beyond hot. I believe I have even declared my love for him on Twitter. What inspired you to create him?


TK: I love when people declare their love for him on Twitter. I love when they announce they wish to marry him. I love dueling and trueling tweets when tweeterers vow they've professed their undying love for him before other tweeterers have. Although, I really must point out that he is not a vampire. So the love might not be precisely undying.


As to what inspired me to create him.  Well, um, let's just mosey on back to the "beyond hot" part!


LF: Who do you see playing him in the movie?


TK: I will go with "Who is Jake Gyllenhaal, for six hundred, Art?"


Mainly because I would laugh out loud if I had to spell his last name again. Also, because he's got the hunky, blue-eyed,  twinkly but brooding look down pat. (Although I don't precisely know who Pat is, either.)


Looky here: I will even provide you with Jake's "Man Meat" page: http://celebmanmeat.blogspot.com/2009...


(Editorial note: I have thoroughly researched this link and I am pleased to report it gets the Lisa Fox seal of hot men approval)


LF: You've done paranormal. You've done Regency. Any other subgenres you'd like to explore?


TK: I'm currently in the midst of a romantic suspense. It's actually more romantic than it is suspense. But the hero's an FBI agent, who isn't a supe of any sort, or even a disinherited aristocrat, so I'm not sure where else to categorize him. Oh, yeah, and her. There's a girl in it, too.  Also a couple of futuristic fantasies.  And one day, I might even finish one or 10 of them!


LF: If such things were possible, and you got the opportunity to choose, which would you prefer to romance, a vampire or a werewolf?


TK: Silly question. You can pet a werewolf.  And, you know, they growl and stuff.  Whereas sparkly, glittery dead things are best worn on ring fingers, not romanced.


LF: Any new projects in the works?


TK: Hmm. Um. I guess. One or two or ten.


LF: How can people find you online?


TK: You're teasing me now, right?


I tweet. I FB. I blog. I blog. I blog again. And again.  I #SixSunday.  And I comment. When I can.


Visit me! Please visit me! I am a comment whore!


And, if you visit me and Lisa today, I might even throw some Romance Trading Cards your way!

As a girl, Emma Whiteside asked Adam Caldwell, Viscount Riverton, to wait for her to be of marriageable age. Now, twelve years later, Emma hates Adam as much as she once loved him, holding the former army major responsible for the death of her brother on the battlefield.


Adam already blames himself for the loss of the men under his command. But the fiery young woman Emma's become sparks his arousal, as well as emotions Adam thought long dead. The passion between them makes him want to reclaim the man he was before the war.


Though she tries to hold on to her hatred, Emma's longing for Adam is undeniable, especially after the two share a smoldering kiss. Still, Adam is certain no woman would want a man so damaged. Can Emma prove him wrong?

Moonlight and Merlot


The continuing saga of the lives, loves and heartbreaks of the residents of Dion Valley, CA.


As with all the best things in life, this is for adults only.


*****


The Diner was busy. The usual morning crowd rushed through, grabbing things to go as they set out on their morning commutes to San Francisco or San Jose. The older crowd, the retirees or the ones simply too rich to have to work, lingered over their breakfasts keeping the seats full and the servers on their toes.


Nick worked on autopilot. Food and beverages moved around him and people talked and laughed with him, but he registered nothing.


He hadn't wanted to leave Lela. She was so soft and warm and beautiful in is bed, but he had to work today. He wondered what she was doing, if she was awake or still asleep.


He wondered if she was thinking of him.


He smiled to himself and shook his head. Lela would only be thinking about one thing today and it wasn't him. Tonight was the night of her precious spell.


He grimaced at the thought. He regretted telling her that he would help. There was something off about her driven, almost manic desire to do the ritual she found in the back of that musty old book she dug out of the Dion Valley Library. Not that he'd ever seen the book, she had only told him about it, but he was certain it was dusty and old and contained all kinds of weird symbols and probably smelled bad.


Customers came and went and the day moved forward and Nick began to dread to coming of the night. He couldn't back out though, no matter how much he wanted to. Lela wanted to do this and he would not let her down.


He tried to think of a way to talk her out of it, a way he could possibly persuade her, but he knew it was useless. He thought about calling in his one favor that she owed him, but she wouldn't think that was funny at all and he didn't want her mad at him.


He just wanted her to let it go.


He knew her reasons. He could see what she was after and to an extent, he understood, but it just seemed so… risky.


And now there was thing about keeping an eye on Phoebe. He didn't know where that had come from, but she had been vehement that he agree. He would keep an eye on her like he promised, but he didn't like the fact Lela thought he had too. Not one bit.


[Until next Tuesday...]
