Florida - every Canadian dreams of it's warm beaches and sun during our cold Canadian winters. 

Look at the colour of that sky. You can feel the warmth. (Yes, it was a brutally cold winter this past season.)

Not only is Florida a fabulous beach spot - but - for a Trekkie like me - being able to touch the moon is pretty mind blowing.


But any day you can leave footprints on a beach - is a fabulous day!


In my latest book, my hero Peyton Lang lives in Miami.  I wrote the book - FL.E.S.H. - over the past winter and as the wind howled, the temperature dropped and the snow fell, I needed a bit of warmth - so Peyton got a condo on the shore in Miami. (lucky him)

Flame and Pete begin their first romp in the sheets on Weekend Writing Warriors #8Sunday

Warning- Sexual language
Scene set - Flame just said - "Question?"
"What?" His voice was equally breathless."Why do you still have clothes on?"He leaned back onto his knees. "I was asking myself exactly that." He pushed off the bed, tugging at his shirt. Flame grabbed the covers and tossed them to the end of the bed. When she turned, Pete stood naked, cock proudly erect.

This week's snippet is from my erotic contemporary billionaire story - FL.E.S.H. on My Sexy Saturday #MySexySaturday #Saturday7 #MSS90

from my newest release - erotic contemporary billionaire story - FL.E.S.H.
Scene set - Peyton doesn't yet know how deep he's going to get in this relationship. 
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. Who names their kid after a color? Craziness probably ran in the family.

Malack opens his heart to Branwyn - from Black Dorn on Book Boyfriend Friday #HOTFORFRIDAY

');




From my erotic medieval romance- Black Dorn



Another guard stood outside a chamber door. He held the door for her. Branwyn entered. It was a magnificent bedchamber. Much larger than the one she slept in. Rich tapestries hung on the walls. Silver and gold threads adorned the bed curtains in an intricate pattern around the edges. Thick fur rugs lay scattered on the floor. A fire snapped in the hearth. Near it sat a table laden with food and drink. A movement behind her caused her to turn. She dropped to her knees. "Stand." Malack held out his hand and helped her up. "When we are alone, I want you beside me, not beneath me." "Are we to be alone?" "I very much wish that to happen." She held her voice firm, "But I am bound to my duty and that displeases you." "I understand duty. I also am bound to mine." He pointed to the table. "Let us forget duty while we dine."  The wall torches remained unlit, so candles on the tables and the glow from the fireplace provided the only light. It made the room inviting. Branwyn relaxed. Malack escorted her to a seat then filled her goblet and his. "Usually the gon makes a toast, but instead I will offer an apology. It is not easy for a gon-dra to ask forgiveness, but I feel I must. My quick temper quick to rise; it has gotten me into trouble ever since I was a child. I fear it has done it again. Your offer to release me yesterday was not given as the tragor of a dune to her gon-dra; it was offered as a woman attempting to give pleasure to a man." He traced her jawline with his finger. "I am humbled by your presence. The great warrior is defeated by the eyes, lips and face of a beautiful woman."

Scene Set - Flame discusses the man of her dream. scene has been edited.

 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 yelled as 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.""I thought you was never getting married?" Cotton Candy said as she sipped a Coke."When you see this guy, you'll understand. Dark hair, light blue eyes." She rubbed her chin and said, "He needs a shave. I love a man looking like that. And look," she pulled the bill from her bra, "holy crap! He tipped me fifty bucks."

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!

From FL.E.S.H. - Flame's announcement on WIP It Up Wednesday #Wipitup

Welcome to Erotic Notions and WIP It Up Wednesday. This snippet is a from my erotic contemporary billionaire story – FL.E.S.H.
Scene Set – Pole dancer -Flame goes back on stage and sees a surprising sight. 
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. 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."

Out Now – The River’s Embrace by A. Silenus

Blurb:
With her blond tresses and blue eyes, London fabric retailer Margery “Margie” Tull is used to being admired. When she’s hired to decorate a riverside manor house though, she suspects ulterior motives.
Lord of the manor Percival Winstanley reveals a long ago love triangle leading to death and the bewitching of his son and heir Stephen. Margie’s cousin Shyan is supposed to protect her. But he’s lured away by Winstanley’s cougarish housekeeper, Mrs. DePlessey, leaving Margie in the dubious care of servant Kern. 
Unsure whom to trust, Margie turns first to artist Raphael Watts, also working at the house. Meanwhile Stephen hovers in the background trying to draw her attention to a cottage across the river. Somehow the women who live there are a portent of Margie’s fate. If only Stephen can convince her of what lies in store Margie can give new hope to the manor and its heir.

Excerpt:
Margie crept from the hall to the library and back again. It was the strangest thing how people either were not there when they were wanted or were breathing down your neck and scaring you out of your skin. There seemed no middle way in this house. She would have to go upstairs. It was the obvious place to look. She started climbing steps, feeling like an intruder and unsure how she would explain why she was snooping around the house if she did find someone. A snigger told her she was on the right track. Tiptoeing across the landing and down a passage way, she homed in on the intertwined voices, Shyan’s wisecracks and Mrs. DePlessey’s purrs of appreciation.Through the gap between an open bedroom door and the jamb, Margie watched unobserved. Shyan was standing on a foot stool wearing only underwear. Evidently measuring requirements had reached the upper thigh. A crouching Mrs. DePlessey’s glistening nails trailed a tape over the city boy’s pale flanks. Shyan’s muscles tensed as her fingers neared the straining material of his briefs.“Am I tickling?” The question was made to sound guileless, like a dentist asking “Am I hurting you?” “Well a bit,” Shyan said. “But it don’t bother me.” I’ll bet it doesn’t, Margie thought. She was so mad at him. Had he forgotten why he had come? Not to dally with the housekeeper, that’s for sure. The waistband was the next number on Mrs. DePlessey’s list, and as her arms circumnavigated Shyan’s midriff with the tape measure she could not refrain from rubbing the bangles on her wrists against his bare skin. The metal must have been cold, because Shyan jumped slightly at the touch.“Oh, I am sorry. Did I do that?” You calculating bitch, Margie wanted to shriek. She’d seen better acting on the soaps.But there was nothing simulated about Shyan’s reaction once the tape made contact at the base of his spine. Margie didn’t have to see below his waistband to know his self-control was on the edge. It wouldn’t take much to unbalance him. All it did take was another move in Mrs. DePlessey’s repertoire of suggestive contact. As her breasts prodded his stomach, ostensibly so she could complete the tape loop, Shyan’s hands descended onto her shoulders. Then the tape was forgotten as her lips came up to meet his. Her clasping arms steadied him on the wobbling stool. They moved to the bed in an uncoordinated tango, and toppled into a grinding embrace. Shyan tackled the buttons on her blouse. His hand groped for the bra clip at her back. He suckled on an inflamed turret of a nipple, with a gusto equal to Ainsworth’s effort during Margie’s previous spying escapade. Then the couple’s hands met and, steered by one or the other—or both—glided in unison down the crevasse between their bodies until they disappeared inside Shyan’s briefs. Margie was mesmerized. Exasperated as she was by her cousin’s easy compliance, she couldn’t help being fascinated by this mesh of desires. That was why it was so startling when Mrs. DePlessey rolled Shyan to one side and, with a light kiss on the lips, told him, “We must save this.”Shyan gaped and attempted to insert a hand between her closed thighs.“For what?” he asked.She smiled, not in the provocative way Margie half expected, but rather as if Shyan hadn’t understood.“In time,” she said. “In time.”

Excerpt:

“Hmm. Let me see. Can I find a spot that needs attention?” Nic’s voice was low, and he was so close to her it vibrated through her skin. Gia looked down at his chest and her eyes lingered on the beautiful script that was embedded into his skin.

Coraggio.

“So that is the tattoo. Courage, Nic?” She grinned up at him as she placed both of her hands on the word that was inked on his skin. “I have no doubt you have plenty of that.”

Slowly he lowered the brush, and for a moment, Gia thought she’d escaped retaliation for daubing his cheek with paint.

“Maybe you need a little courage. Do you think, bella?”

He grabbed both of her hands with one of his and held the brush high with the other. Her breath caught as Nic used his body to gently push her back against the wall. She watched fascinated as he lowered his head and caught the thin straps of her singlet top in his teeth, and the stubble of his chin brushed her shoulder as he slid the strap down with his teeth. A shaft of pure desire ran from her shoulder and honed straight between her legs. If Nic hadn’t been supporting her with his body, Gia would have slid down the wall into a useless heap; her legs were trembling with anticipation.

She swallowed and lowered her voice. “Courage for what?”

Nic lifted his head and held her gaze. “Coraggio. To have faith in yourself and your exhibition.” His eyes were half-closed, but Gia watched with fascination as he leaned back and lowered the brush. The first strokes on the top of her breast were feather soft, and she tipped her head back and closed her eyes. A half swirl for the C and her fingers tingled with the need to touch Nic, but he still held her hands firmly in his. His brow was creased with concentration as his eyes remained firmly fixed on her breasts as the brush tickled her. The circle for the O was painstakingly slow, and she was sure he was deliberately taking his time to complete each letter. The R was completed just as slowly, and Gia closed her eyes when Nic began the next letter. The paint was cool on her skin, and the sensation of the tip of the fine brush was sending quivers to her belly.

“Hmmm. We have a problem.”
