Warning - Mild sexual content
Scene Set - When Flame and Peyton first set eyes on each other - heat bubbled.


With a twist, she lowered her leg, turned so her back was against the pipe, and kicked off the stage. With her legs spread wide, the black crotch of her thong exposed to all, she swung around the pole. The brilliant stage lights blurred as they seemed to whiz by. She slapped her feet to the floor, dropped to side splits, and humped the floor for several bars of music. When she raised her head, her gaze met two eyes staring intently at her. A small grin hovered over his lips. Forgetting her number one rule, she smiled back. He tilted his head in a small nod.Flame's focus broke. Her pussy clenched. Her nipples strained against the leather bra. No man had ever disrupted a performance like the simple grin on this one's face. She pushed herself to her hands and knees and crawled forward. When she reached the edge of the stage, she shifted to sitting on her heels with her knees splayed. She dragged the nail of her right index finger down the center of her forehead, along her nose, over her pouted lips, between her breasts, along her firm torso, and then over the edge of her leather-encased mound. Reaching up, she ran her fingers through her long red hair and paused with her hands behind her head. There, she waited, displayed for him, knees apart, and breasts pushed forward as if offering herself to his desires.He stood, walked around his table, and stopped before her. A musky scent danced on the air. Reaching forward, he tucked a bill into the edge of her bra, his finger grazing her naked flesh. A shiver raced through her. A moan tickled her throat. The scent lingered after he returned to his seat.

13 sentences from FL.E.S.H. - erotic billionaire story - on #Thursday13

Welcome to Thursday 13 - 13 sentences from my latest erotic contemporary billionaire story - FL.E.S.H.

Scene Set - Peyton has frustrating problem.



He'd purchased the company that held her rental agreement, and raised her rent. Everyone else in the building had skedaddled when he put out his offer.But, oh no, not this Fuchsia Quinn person. She was probably some old tree-hugging, new wave, crystal wearing crazy person who was going to be as annoying as that damn owl. Fuchsia. Isn't that a color. Like purple? Who names their kid after a color?

Flame's announcement from FL.E.S.H. on WIP IT UP Wednesday #Wipitup

Scene set - Flame, pole dancer, is performing when someone in the audience broke her concentration.


Her pussy clenched. Her nipples strained against the leather bra. No man had ever disrupted a performance like the simple grin on this one's face. She pushed herself to her hands and knees and crawled forward. When she reached the edge of the stage, she shifted to sitting on her heels with her knees splayed. She dragged the nail of her right index finger down the center of her forehead, along her nose, over her pouted lips, between her breasts, along her firm torso, and then over the edge of her leather-encased mound. Reaching up, she ran her fingers through her long red hair and paused with her hands behind her head. There, she waited, displayed for him, knees apart, and breasts pushed forward as if offering herself to his desires.He stood, walked around his table, and stopped before her. A musky scent danced on the air. Reaching forward, he tucked a bill into the edge of her bra, his finger grazing her naked flesh. A shiver raced through her. A moan tickled her throat. The scent lingered after he returned to his seat.A hideous sight eclipsed her view as Baseball Cap Guy stood inches away from her. His beer breath was vile. The leering look in his eyes made her stomach heave. He thrust his groin back and forth. "Wanna play?"With you, creepazoid? Never. Not even if you were the last man alive. Flame jumped to her feet, grabbed the pole, and spun. When she slowed, she kicked hard and flung herself around again. Maybe getting dizzy would erase the disgust growing in her from being that close to Yankee fan. She tried to focus on him, but as she spun Baseball Cap Guy kept returning to her focus.She wanted to think about the stranger. Visualize him. He didn't have a name. He'd never been in the club before. She knew most members by sight. Each had been given a nickname, usually based on their favorite t-shirt or ball cap. The new guy was dressed in jeans and a black t-shirt, but somehow that wasn't quite right. Suit Man? No. Hollywood? No. Future Husband! Flame stifled a giggle.The music ended. Flame glanced out at the audience, locked gazes with him, smiled, and then turned and scurried off the stage."Oh. My. God." She burst into the change room. "I've just found the man of my dreams. What a hell hole this is, and I've just found the man I'm going to marry."

Spotlight on The Loyal Steed - a Pleasure Hound Novel by Ines Johnson

What starts as a series of carnal lessons turns into more as two rivals vie for the woman of their dreams.
Trained as a Pleasure Hound and now surviving by selling his body to rich women, Jaspir’s heart has always remained loyal to Lady Merlyn. When Merlyn’s fiance, Liam, approaches Jaspir for help in ensuring her happiness in the bedroom, Jaspir agrees to train Liam in the pleasure arts. What starts as rivals in an uneasy truce, soon turns carnal when Merlyn learns of their secret lessons and is torn between the attentions of two men who would do anything to rule her heart.

A Few Interview Responses

Inspiration ShortOver the summer, I had a flash of inspiration while on my knees cleaning the oven. I dreamed a world where men were the domestics and lived only to please women. For some curious reason, the idea stuck with me and three weeks later I’d written a full novel set in that fantasy world.Tell us about your book? How did it get started?The elements of a great romance is when the hero and heroine fit each others need.
There’s a preponderance of books where pain is pleasure. And that’s okay with me -when I believe that there’s actually pleasure being had. I’ve read too many books where women are getting spanked just to get spanked. Its not clear how the act satisfies a need in them, nor is it clear that the man understands and is acting to fulfill that need. That understanding is the sexy part to me: a woman who knows (perhaps subconsciously) what she needs and a man who knows exactly how to give it to her.
The Pleasure Hound series, came into being out of this frustration. I wanted to read about a heroine who was eager to explore pleasure. I wanted to encounter a hero who was skilled in, and solely interested in, that woman’s pleasure. My monks have studied women’s bodies like textbooks. After thorough perusal of the women in their charge, they emerge ready to ace the examination.
What got you started in writing?I come from a family of storytellers. My mother would talk your ears off for hours and my father is a songwriter. I began my storytelling career in television, where I still dabble from time to time. A few years ago I’d written a script that I thought would make an excellent book, only I didn’t know how to write a book. So I took a couple of classes and started querying. I never received a single rejection letter. Instead, I got no responses at all in the beginning! But I never gave up and I never stopped writing. Wait, isn’t the the definition of insanity?
How do you get your ideas for writing?I’m a very bad Buddhist. I sit each week in sangha, which is similar to sitting in a church pew on Sunday. In a sangha the teacher, think preacher, will  lecture on spiritual teachings and guide the group in mediation. During meditation when I’m supposed to be getting my zen on, my mind always wanders back to the teaching and turns it into a story.
What do you like to read?Perfect heroines are boring and unrealistic to me; they must be flawed in some way. I prefer stories where the heroine’s a strong, bright, and successful in their careers but are clueless and inept in their love lives.
What would your advice to be for authors or aspiring in regards to writing?If you’re serious, you’re only allowed one day off a week. And on your day off you should be plotting in your head.

What genres do you write besides romantic erotica?I write romantic erotica, paranormal romance, and fairy tale retelling romance novels. Notice the romance in each genre. I began writing YA, but realized my love scenes were too hot for teens!


Excerpt -


Lesson One Jaspir regarded his longtime foe. Set in Liam's pale face was green eyes with thick lashes, a strong jaw and a mouth with a thin upper lip, but full lower lip. Jaspir had hated this pale face for many years. He blocked out Liam's face and focused on the man's lips. As he did with his more unattractive clients, Jaspir pictured Merlyn in his head, narrowing his world to what these lips would do for her.Jaspir grazed his fingers along the lips before him. They were thinner than his own. His lessons would have to account for that. "Lesson number one," he said. "The bedroom is the only place where a man can truly rule a woman."Jaspir clasped the chin that belonged to the lips, eliciting another gasp."You need to take charge," he said. "Be in control."Jaspir's fingers curled about the neck and the lips parted as he did so."Merlyn thinks too much. Her head rules her entire body. If you have control of her head..." His fingers went into the red hairs at the nape of the neck that belonged to the lips. With a firm tug, the head went back exposing the neck. "...you have control of her."Jaspir let his focus extend from the lips to the exposed neck. His tongue struck out and he licked. He felt the body trembling in his grasp."Lesson number two, never do what's expected." Jaspir bit lightly at the chin. "Merlyn will anticipate your every move. She can't help it. She remembers the sequence of things. If you are repetitive, you will lose her. Do you understand?"Jaspir watched as the lips tried to form words, but the trembling thwarted them. In the end, Jaspir was given a nod of acquiescence."Good."Jaspir focused on the lips once more. He nipped at them. He nipped at the bottom lip, which was plumper than the top. He nipped at the corner, flicking his tongue out. He continued this random pattern as the lips tried to anticipate his next move, each time failing to predict it."Lesson three, make her chase you. Once you—"The lips cut him off. The lips Jaspir had thought so small covered his own and tried to devour him. For unpracticed lips they were warm and wanton. Perhaps Liam could please Merlyn after all. But first, he had to pay attention.Jaspir used the hand still at the nape of Liam's neck to yank him away. Liam groaned at the loss, his chest panting, his eyes hooded."Are you listening, Liam?"Liam blinked once, twice. By the third blink, he'd recovered himself and yanked away from Jaspir's hold, embarrassment clear on his face. "All right," Liam said. "You've made your point."

Walking on her knees to the side of the bed, Flame bent forward. The tip of his cock grazed under her chin. A dusting of dark hair circled his belly button. She poked her tongue in and out."Mmm. Promises of things to come." He ran his fingers through her hair."I'm hoping emphasis on the word, come."

We've met Flame. Time to meet Peyton from FL.E.S.H. on Thursday 13 #Thursday13

This week's 13 sentences come from my erotic contemporary billionaire story - FL.E.S.H. (FLame's Electrifying Sweet Heat.)

Scene Set - We've met Flame. Time to meet Peyton

With a frustrated sigh, Peyton Lang tossed the report onto his desk. How could one person be so irritating and hold up an entire project? He grimaced as the memory of the Tiny Wood Owl incident popped into his mind. What a stupid mess that was. A fifty million dollar complex's construction site had to be moved because the environmental report said some silly little owl only lived in the exact place he wanted to put a medical center. Still being young and brash, he'd challenged the report. Peyton rubbed his face. What a mistake that was. The media got a hold of the story, and by the end of the fiasco, he'd moved the construction site and donated ten million dollars to the preservation of a bird. He didn't like birds. They shit on his Ferrari.
Now this… this… Fuchsia Quinn had refused all financial offers and was stubbornly determined to stay put. Well, if he couldn't buy her out, he'd force her out.

The first review of FLESH and it's a 5 Star!  *****
Flame is a woman who does what she needs to do to make ends meet. Pole dancing isn't her idea of a job but she has dreams. Ms. Devore writes a compelling tale of a woman who won't give up her dreams. When she meets a man who turns her on, her world flips on its end. I loved how strong Flame was. She's the kind of woman I admire. Peyton is a dream come true. We'd all love a man like him to would do anything to protect and keep us happy.
If you love a story with fabulous characters, a compelling plot and sizzling chemistry, FLESH is for you! I loved it!

Flame's On- Stage Surprise from FL.E.S.H. on WIP It Up Wednesday #Wipitup

Scene set - Flame is about to go back on stage and is in for a big surprise  Flame flipped open her makeup case, grabbed a tube of strawberry lip gloss, and rolled the sweet lacquer over her lips. Reaching into her bra, she adjusted the ladies, and then sprinkled body glitter on the mounds of her breasts. She turned her back to her mirror, twisting around to sprinkle more glitter onto both butt cheeks, making sure to accent the curve of her ass.She walked out of the room and into the hall that separated dressing room from the side stage entrance. There, she ran through a series of moves to warm up and loosen her muscles. Years of dance training had taught her how to prepare for a show, but being a pole dancer in a dive strip club was not the Lincoln Center she'd imagined. Her right Achilles tendon complained. She pointed and flexed her foot then stretched the back of her leg. How ironic. An Achilles heel had been both Achilles' downfall and hers.Once she felt loose enough to dance, she popped her head into the sound booth and said, "Frankie has deemed that I'm up next. Jade's not dancing tonight. Fell off her heel. Can you put the Pole Dance Six music on?""Flame, honey, your wish is my command." Steve scrolled down the music list and clicked on the requested folder.The music from Passion Fruit's performance faded and applause replaced it. She bumped Flame's shoulder as she exited the stage. "Sorry. Gawd, what a shitty crowd. Brain dead morons are takin' over the world."Flame stepped past her, walked to the pole at center stage, wrapped her fingers around the metal and waited for the first music cue. As the opening chord sounded, she focused solely on her job, spinning around the dance pole, holding on with a hand, a bent knee, or a curved elbow. She stood beside it, lifted her leg as high as she could, rested it on the shaft, and then pulled herself forward into a standing front split. She laid her head on her leg and tossed her hair right and left as she gazed about the bar. Baseball Cap Guy's seat was empty. Probably in the men's room, jerking off.With a twist, she lowered her leg, turned so her back was against the pipe, and kicked off the stage. With her legs spread wide, the black crotch of her thong exposed to all, she swung around the pole. The brilliant stage lights blurred as they seemed to whiz by. She slapped her feet to the floor, dropped to side splits, and humped the floor for several bars of music. When she raised her head, her gaze met two eyes staring intently at her. A small grin hovered over his lips. Forgetting her number one rule, she smiled back. He tilted his head in a small nod.Flame's focus broke.

Excerpt (sexual content)

Caving to his selfishness, Spinelli lifted his hand
and combed his fingers through Shannon’s smooth, silky strands of hair before
his hand came to rest against her warm, inviting, cheek. Her eyes fluttered
open but quickly closed again. He tilted her head slightly for better access to
her soft, irresistible lips. He touched them lightly with his before he pulled
his head back in hopes to catch a glimpse of her beautiful emerald eyes. It
took but a moment for her lids to rise, and the sea of green staring back at
him instantly swallowed him whole.
Wasting no time, he dipped his head and fully took
her mouth. The heat of her tongue nearly set him to flames. Her fingers wove
through his hair; his hand cupped a breast through her shirt. Her back still
pinned one arm between her and the chair. As if reading his mind, she shifted
her position more upright, freeing his arm and his hand for roaming. He nearly
chuckled at her mind-reading skills in the few short months they’d been
together. At this rate, he’d soon have no private thoughts left.
Her scorching tongue turned his
mind to mush. She sent every nerve ending in his body to the highest point of
arousal he’d ever experienced. He couldn’t think anymore. He could only react
and deepened his kiss.
Straddling him in the chair, she
placed her hands on his cheeks and locked her smoldering gaze onto his. He
needed a crowbar to tear his gaze from hers, as he glanced at her letter still
on the arm of the chair. Unless she saw it in the last few seconds, she would have
no way of knowing he’d seen the letter she wrote to him. Shifting his gaze back
to her, he found her looking at the paper. Her breath held for a moment.
The sheer intensity of her
concentrated gaze bored into his soul. “I meant every word of it, Nick.”
A thrill snapped through him like
a lightning bolt as if this information was new to him. Deep down he’d known it
for a while, but the letter confirmed his suspicions. Hearing her say the
words, with such sincerity and assurance, rendered him speechless. His heart
pounded in his chest.
Shannon’s green eyes darkened as
she leaned forward and pressed her fiery-hot and needy lips to his. Spinelli’s
greedy hands went to work, pulling her shirt up and over her head so quickly
their lips hardly parted to complete the task. His fingers loosened the hook on
her bra, freeing her small perky round breasts from their confinement.
Pulling his lips from hers, he
fastened his mouth around one breast as he cupped the other in the palm of his
hand. Her breath hitched and released with a soft moan. If that was the last
sound he ever heard, he’d die a happy man. She had the most beautiful breasts.
Shannon’s small hands floated down
and fluidly worked the button and zipper of his jeans. If she took any longer,
the force of his erection would take care of that task.
He somehow found enough sense to
lift himself to his feet with Shannon in his arms. Her legs wrapped around his
waist. He took the four steps needed before playfully tossing her onto the bed.
Kneeling before him, she tugged at his jeans as he pulled his shirt over his
head. She eyed his erection. He always loved how she looked at him. Only two
things were better. Yep, wrapping her mouth around him was one. Her sizzling
tongue slid around and over the tip of him before taking him in completely. The
escalating pressure was nearly more than he could bear and she’d hardly
started. His pulse pounded in his ears as his aching body begged for release.
His concentrated effort to hold out nearly failed him as she freed him from the
depths of her knowing mouth.
Shannon scooted up on the bed. Her
skin flushed at his gaze. He tugged her jeans and panties from her before he
crawled up beside her. Before he knew it, his mouth covered hers, probing,
exploring, as if it had never been there before. He was ready, so ready to dip
inside her velvet opening.

Teaser Spinelli fixed his gaze on Walker.
“I’m going to marry her.” Walker risked a glance away from the road. “I
know you are. Jeana and I have known all along. Christ, even Marsh figured it
out. Mad Dog calls me at least once a week to make sure he doesn’t miss the
wedding. Captain Jackson prays for the miracle that you figure it out before
she retires so she knows you’ll be taken care of when she’s gone.” Walker
chuckled. “We’re all just waiting for you to shit or get off the pot.”

Excerpt:

“Did no one tell ye it’s rude tae give a man the best night of his life and then run away?” a voice rumbled low and soft and managed to be as seductive as it was menacing.“Kade,” Morrie sighed, hoping he couldn’t hear the desire and relief laced in the sound.  She shouldn’t be this excited over knowing he had raced home after her, but inside she nearly bounced like a giddy school girl.  And what did he say?  The best night of his life…Morrie would have to admit, she felt the same.She spun around on the stool to face him, leaning back when she found him standing too near.  He closed the small space, towering over her as he dipped his head to be eye level with her, forcing her back against the bar. “Ye will no’ leave like that again,” he growled.  Morrie frowned at his order and opened her mouth to respond, but the words caught in the back of her throat.  Emotion flickered in his eyes, eyes that had grown black with what could have been either desire or fury, she wasn’t sure.  But also something else… Morrie tilted her head to the side. “Did I scare you?”Kade huffed with quick offense and straightened up, leaning back from her.  But his expression changed to one of wonder. “Like ye would no’ believe,” he admitted on an exhaled breath as though surprised by his own revelation.“I told you I was here for business.”  And that business was quickly becoming an obsession of hers.  A challenge that would determine just how far down the mortal hole she had fallen and whether she could find her true nature as a goddess once again.  This job tested her mettle because it should have been done by now.  She knew she could find the horse if she used her powers, but she needed to know she could find him on her own.  Though why she needed that, she couldn’t say.Kade turned his angry eyes on her. “Do ye really expect tae succeed in this daft quest?”Morrie blinked, surprised by the…well, vehemence of his question and the turn of his questioning.  Of everyone in the home, he had seemed the least concerned about her reasons for being there.“If I didn’t think I could catch him, I wouldn’t stay.”  And she had thought he wanted her to stay, but his question had elicited an unwanted response—one of insecurity. “If you think I’m wasting my time, then I should just leave.”  For emphasis, she moved to slip off the stool, to really get away from him before he could see just how his doubts had touched her, but he stopped her by placing his hand on her hip.“Wait, that’s no’ what I want.”  Morrie paused but crossed her arms over her chest, pressing her lips together and waiting for him to continue.  Kade sighed. “O’ course I think ye can catch him.  If anyone can, it’s you.  I doona doubt ye.” He blinked, like a discovery had been made. “Maybe ye’re supposed tae. In fact, I’ll help ye do so.”Morrie gave Kade a sidelong glance.  He was up to something, she just wasn’t sure what.“You’ll come with me to the loch?”  There it was again! A passing cloud of fear across his face, but this time it was different.  It seemed spurned on by a different place.  But it came and went so quickly, Morrie soon questioned seeing it at all.“I’ll follow ye anywhere,” he answered her and there was a deep truth behind his statement. “Just doona leave again like ye did this morn.”Morrie studied him like a suspicious package wrapped in a thin veil of desperate relief.  He seemed changed from the night before—this emotion even different than the cloud that settled over him after the encounter with his mother.  Kade either wore many masks or his true nature was too complex to determine.  Like the horse, Kade was a challenge.And Morrie was a sucker for challenges.And his dark eyes turned her into a puddle and it seemed there was nothing she could do about it.  Her shoulders slumped before she muttered, “Stop making me melt.”Kade frowned. “What was that?”“Nothing,” Morrie stood up, placing her body much too close to Kade’s, but she couldn’t appear weak.  She pulled out some money and slapped it down on the bar to well cover her tab.“Alright, you can help.  But what happened last night cannot happen again.  I am your brother’s employee, I am your employee.  And for us to entangle ourselves…” Kade’s responding grin caused Morrie to roll her eyes and regret her word choice, but she continued on, hands on her hips, “would only result in an unnecessary distraction.”  She hoped to glower that smirk right off his beautiful lips.At the fire in her eyes, Kade threw up is hands in surrender. “Aye, lass, as ye wish.  If ye insist on lying tae yerself and pretending, then I will no’ impose my will on ye.”  Morrie’s face burned with outrage, but that only resulted in Kade laughing at her, gazing down with desire in his smoldering eyes and adoration in his smile. “Stop that!” she complained, pushing past him.   “Stop what?” he asked with feigned innocence.She whirled around and nearly smacked her face into his chest.  Sighing, she stepped back and looked up at him. “Stop trying to provoke me.  Nothing will happen between us.”“If ye say so.  As I said, I will no’ impose myself on ye, but if ye canna keep yer hands tae yerself, lass, I will no’ stop where they may roam.  And we both know they’re curious, lil’ things.”  Volumes were spoken in his heated gaze.  Morrie flushed anew.Her body grew rigid, her hands balled into fists at her sides.“My hands do not—there will be no—gah!” Morrie sputtered and turned her back to him, stomping out of the restaurant and towards what was going to surely be a violent battle of wills.  For the first time in her existence, Morrie didn’t know if she would be the victor.
