Comment on any blog post July 22-24 at http://t.co/CpfYzMM and win a copy of my shifter erotic paranormal romance, Amber Moon!
Sabrina Wayne yearns for the perfect mates to fill the void in her heart. As a werepuma Beta, she is driven to find the strongest Alpha to submit too, or in her case, Alphas. Sabrina craves the delicious softness of a woman as well as the rugged strength of a man. She has almost given up finding the right couple when she takes a leap of faith and allows Madame Evangeline of the 1Night Stand matchmaking service to set her on what Madame Eve promises will be an evening she'll never forget.
Alphas Nick and Madeline Turea have been searching for a woman like Sabrina for a very long time. After a disastrous relationship with a former Beta female, the couple has been extremely cautious to let anyone else get close to them or the Amber Moon pride. When Madame Evangeline contacts them about a possible match, both are eager to meet the beautiful woman who may complete their family.
A night of reckless desire and burning hot passion leads to an unknown danger that might destroy Sabrina's one chance at a perfect love. She must learn to surrender to the power of her Alphas and gain their trust before it's too late.

Dreamer, Chosen by the Gods Book 2
The blurb for Dreamer, Devon's story, is up on my publisher's website. I hope you enjoy a tiny taste of a tale that is going to blow your socks off :D
Here is the website where things like the first chapter sample, cover art, etc will be shown:
http://www.liquidsilverbooks.com/foru...
And here is ze blurb!
Arrogant, powerful, and dangerous, Devon King is one of the world's greatest warriors. Yet even he is helpless against the evil that is stalking the children of Washington DC. When the Gods assign him to protect Shan Harrison he can't believe that the beautiful and spirited Goth girl is the key to defeating the nightmares that haunt the city. Shan has the potential to become one of the strongest dreamers in history, if she can survive long enough to come into her full powers. Devon is used to getting what he wants and he wants Shan. Her submissive nature hidden beneath her tough exterior calls to the dominant side of his nature like a sirens song.
Ashamed of her cravings, Shan fights her attraction to Devon and tries to convince herself that what they have is only physical. The servants of evil use her insecurity and self-doubt to try to tear Shan and Devon apart. If Shan doesn't learn to accept her desires, and Devon's love, darkness will triumph and everyone that she holds dear will be destroyed by terrifying nightmares come to life.

If you Have a Moment
I would really appreciate your vote for the cover of my IR/MC paranormal romance, Blessed. :)
http://www.goodreads.com/list/show/72...
It's up in a goodreads cover contest and I would love to see it place well. Not just because it's my baby and I love it, but because the cover features an African American/dutch leading lady, and you don't often see women of ANY color on covers. I'm hoping that if authors and publishers see that people like the cover for Blessed, they will consider publishing more books where the people inside reflect the rich and wonderfully diverse world that we live in. :D

Release Day for Daughter of Lust!
My erotic paranormal romance, Daughter of Lust, is now available. :) I love this book, its different from most of the paranormal romance out there right now, and not only because it's set in Russia during the 1870's, but because it has a great storyline for as hot as it is. I enjoy the freedom my publishers give me to write a good story and give the love scenes as much attention and detail as I do the rest of the book. I hope you enjoy it. :D

Much Love
And blessings to my friends out in NY that can FINALLY have the oppertunity to be legally married to the other half of their soul. Love is love is love and I'm so glad that you will be able to have that big and glorious white wedding, that walk into the court house, or that ceremony on the beach at sunset. Enjoy every minute of it and remember that marriage is hard work, but it is worth every ounce of effort.

For anyone that hasn't had that experience, I hope this gives you a taste and leaves you wanting more. :)
Sean began to rock behind her, pulling her body into the music. Keeping her gaze on the floor, she relaxed enough to let him lead her movements. The way he became one with the drumbeats was amazing. He led her in perfect rhythm with the music as if his body was an extension of it. Her heart pounded in her chest as his hips brushed against her bottom and his impressive erection pressed into her. Hard and impossible to ignore, she bit back a moan as his desire wrapped around her.
