#8Sunday: The blue and red lights are explained in Alien Attraction #scifi #romance

Welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post! 

This month, I’m sharing excerpts from Alien Attraction, the third book in my Alien Next Door series. I’ve decided to share snippets about the orb that is part of every story in this series. In last week’s snippet, the orb finally started working for Angela, but due to years of frustration with it not working for her, she ignored it. Well, after the orb keeps her up at night, and ruins a date (which you can read about here), she can no longer ignore its warning. She travels to visit her family to find out what its double flashing means. Her father (Luke) is the first to talk.

“When I was really young, about four Earth years, I was confined to my quarters again. My parents, as part of the council, were meeting with another nomadic race, the Memonons. I never did meet them, so I have no idea what they look like. But, I do remember my orb flashing red and blue the entire time they were on the ship. A few hours after as well. Later, my mother told me they had to go to the other ship for the next meeting because the orbs emitted a high pitch tone only the Memonons could hear.”

Angela sat up. “Oh my gosh! Chal covered his ears at the same time I noticed the orb rolling across the floor. I couldn’t hear anything, but from the pained expression on his face, he sure did.”

ALIEN ATTRACTION

She wants to be more alien.

He wants to be more human.

Born a galaxy apart, will Angela and Chal have a chance at love, or will their extraterrestrial secrets leave them running to stay alive?

#MySexySaturday: The naked man behind the curtain in the sci-fi romance Another Night, Another Planet

Hello and welcome to the 137th week of My Sexy Saturday.

Here are the details: every Saturday, published and unpublished authors will be sharing 7 words, sentences, or paragraphs from a work-in-progress or an already published story.

Today’s theme is…

OUR SEXY VACATION

For today’s post, I’m sharing an excerpt from ANOTHER NIGHT ANOTHER PLANET, a sci-fi romance which is only 99¢ this month.

Setup: In this sci-fi romance, Ava works on a Mother Traveler, which is a cruise spaceship that takes vacationers around the galaxy. During their layover, she will be going on a date set up by Madame Eve of 1Night Stand. But, she is in the middle of her pre-date massage when it is interrupted.

Ava’s cheeks burned as she gazed at the naked man who’d drawn back the curtain. Nate. Her first lover. The first guy to break her heart. Tanned skin covered his muscular body. He’d kept his hair short and even his nether region was trimmed to show off his large cock. By far the most gorgeous man she had ever seen, improved even more over the star cycles, he watched her, his face void of any expression.

Yet, she could think of nothing to say to the man she’d given her virginity to, so long ago. Would he even want to be with her after dumping her as a teen? And how could she be with him again? He’d treated her the same as the other guys in her past, used her then ditched her when he’d had his fill.

Overwhelmed by the heat rushing through her body from his scrutiny, she longed for a blanket or towel to hide under, but nothing lay within her reach. She covered her breasts—what little she had—and her pubic area.

If he’d been a complete stranger, she would have loved for him to ravage her body, but not now. “Um, can I get a robe or something?”

Her question seemed to snap everyone from their frozen states. Jacobus rushed to the hot tub to grab her a veech robe. The Elatian woman pushed on her client’s chest, though she didn’t have much luck in moving him.

“Natazekial, you need to return to the massage table. I am not finished with you yet.”

He ducked past his Adamo. “It’s Nate, and I’m definitely finished.” Then he stood chest to chest with Jacobus. “This is the woman Madame Evangeline set me up with.” He grabbed the bottle of lotion from the other man. “Since she’s my date, I should be the one rubbing her down.”

Nate. Her first lover. The first guy to break her heart. #Excerpt from Another Night, Another Planet by Jessica E.…

ANOTHER NIGHT, ANOTHER PLANET
Erotic Sci-Fi Romance

Limited by status…

Ava is a housekeeper aboard Star Spirit, a luxury cruise ship travelling between the Milky Way and the Belvarian System. Coming from a middle-class family on Earth, she is considered by passengers as nothing more than an object to be tossed away when they’re done with her.

Shunned because of his lineage…

Banned from several planets across the universe, Nate struggles to run his interstellar shipping business. But the DNA of an exterminated race runs through his blood, giving him a diluted form of their powers, and leaving him labeled as a terrorist.

Both searching for the one…

Through her 1Night Stand dating service, Madame Evangeline matches these two together for a celestial escape on the pleasure planet, Elatia.

Will Ava and Nate find what they’re looking for, or will their date be just another night on another planet?

A late night rendezvous for the Spring Fling Giveaway Hop ~ April 15 – 21 #SpringFlingHop #books

Thank you for visiting my blog for the Spring Fling Giveaway Hop! And thank you to Anna at The Herd Presents for organizing it!

Spring has sprung and love is in the air!

We’re sharing our favorite romantic reads! There’s a giveaway at every blog so visit them all and see what reads have us all in a swoon.

For my post, I’m sharing an excerpt from Made For Her.

Set-up: After an extra training session in the flight simulator, Mikayla and Dare are ready to retire for the night. Dare is a clone, property of the US military, and Mikayla is his senior officer…

“Thank you for walking me home, Lieutenant.” She glanced around as if to ensure no one saw them. They were both taking risks being together.

“Why don’t you come inside for that beer you were craving?” She held the door open for him.

What? He shook his head, unsure if he’d heard her correctly. “You’re inviting me in?”

“Yes, Lieutenant.”

His heart raced as he followed her through the doorway. He glanced around at her modest home. Safer than staring at her ass. The kitchen table and couch would be perfect places to take her. Heck, he’d even do her against the wall or on the floor, but the biggest challenge was the room behind the door. Her bedroom.

Shit! What was he thinking? She’d only asked him in for a beer, right?

“Lieutenant, what kind?”

“Huh?”

“What kind of beer would you like?” She wiggled two brown bottles in front of him.

He grabbed the light lager and cracked it open. “Since I’m in your house, you should at least call me Dare.”

Her lips hinted at a smile, as if she’d suddenly become shy. “And you can still call me Colonel Jones. Let’s go sit down.”

He followed her to the couch and sat beside her, thinking of all of the positions he could get her in. God, why did she make him so horny?

“Dare, you need to put that thing away. I am your senior officer.”

Had she really said that? He’d felt his cock pressing against his pants but hadn’t realized it was that obvious. “You were looking?”

~ MADE FOR HER ~

After terrorists murder the love of her life, Colonel Mikayla Jones trains squadron after squadron of the clones he brought to life, to take to the skies. When she discovers a young clone of her husband in her newest class, her world spins out of control. How can she command the look-a-like when she can’t help but yearn for him to fill an ache in her heart?

Dare was created to be the best. As the first Daniel clone to leave Onatria labs, he needs to prove he is more than just a DNA copy. To do that, he must rely on the wife of the man who donated his genes. But when she refuses to train him, Dare faces discharge and returning to the labs. Can he convince Colonel Jones to finish his training and find a way into her bed? Or will long kept secrets unhinge the entire clone project?

#MidWeekTease: He was anxious to kiss her sweet lips in Alien Attraction #scifiromance #book

Happy Wednesday! It’s time for Mid Week Tease. For today’s post, I’m sharing an excerpt from Alien Attraction.

Setup: Chal, an alien, is on his first date with his next door neighbor. They are watching a movie where the main character falls in love with an alien. Angela doesn’t know about his heritage, so the questions at the beginning of this tease are hypothetical. 

“What about you? Could you fall in love with an alien?”

She smiled, her body relaxing again. “I am absolutely sure I could.”

“What about a regular human being?” Slowly gathering her skirt up her legs, he waited for her answer. Would she reject him?

“Could I fall in love with someone from Earth? Sure.” She moved her hand down and began to rub his inner thigh. “If that someone is you.”

Lust oozed out of her pores, accelerating his desire. He sat up, anxious to kiss her sweet lips. So soft and tender. She wrapped her arms around his neck and leaned back, pulling him on top of her. Chal plunged his tongue into her mouth the way he wanted to experience other parts of her.

Angela held the hem of his sweater, drawing the material up until he was forced to draw back for a moment to get the dang thing off. As she trailed her palms up and down his back, Chal slipped his hands under the skirt of her dress. He yearned for more. All of her. No internal warnings with his neighbor. Every inch of his being encouraged him on, to make the ultimate connection with the woman who said she could love an alien.

Clasping her waist, he ran his thumbs along the edge of her undergarments. With a throaty moan, she thrust toward him. Encouragement?

He lifted his head and gazed into her honey-colored eyes. “Do you want this?”

She nodded and pulled him back down, claiming his mouth the way he yearned to claim her. When she elevated her hips, he slid his fingers beneath her undergarments and shimmied them down her thighs.

A piercing alarm filled the room, as if her panties were fitted with a siren. Bolting upright, he closed his eyes and slammed his palms over his ears.

When he peeked for a glance of Angela’s reaction to the noise, he saw tears trailing down her cheeks, her face illuminated by red and blue lights.

“No,” she cried. “Not now. Not with him.”

He followed her line of sight, spotting a round object on the floor at the foot of the couch, the source of the light and most likely the noise. A Lisivian predictor! Flashing red and blue, warning of the worst kind of danger.

Chal scrambled to his feet, grabbing his sweater from the floor on the way out of the apartment. The woman he thought he might be able to have a future with possessed an extraterrestrial artifact, one of a race dead before he was born. She had no reason to have it in her possession unless she hunted aliens. Hunted him.

He sat up, anxious to kiss her sweet lips. So soft and tender. #Excerpt from Alien Attraction by Jessica E. Subject

Jessica E. Subject’s Weekly Writing Update ~ I’m still editing

Hello! It’s Tuesday, and time for another Weekly Writing Update. This week I dealt with more unseasonal weather, and getting my tax information together so I could take it to my accountant before the end of April deadline to file. But, I took the paperwork in yesterday, and the local forecast is calling for much warmer weather that doesn’t include the nasty white stuff.

BRYCE ~ The story is in revisions. I’ve edited another four chapters, and only have five more scenes to go. In the last two weeks, I’ve added a net of 2,059 words to Bryce during revisions.

FREE READ ~ If you didn’t see my post from last week, Alien Adoration, the first story in my Alien Next Door series is now free at most ebook retailers. You can find all the links here.

SALE ~ Another Night, Another Planet, my erotic sci-fi adventure romance is on sale for 99¢ at Amazon and All Romance for the month of April.

GOALS FOR THE WEEK ~  I will finish revising Bryce and review once more before sending out for beta and edits. This past week, I’ve been listening to audio books, but I’m hoping to get in some ebook reading, and finish a short story for a Flash Contest I have been invited to be a part of.

Please share what you have been up to this week. Are you reading or writing anything new?

Her Deviant Lord by @LaynaPimentel ~ A Sexy Earl, Second Chances, & Plenty of Kink #historical #romance

Her Deviant Lord from romance author Layna Pimentel, is the third installment of the Pleasure Garden Follies series. This historical romance features a sexy earl, second chances at love, and plenty of kink for good measure.

HER DEVIANT LORD

by Layna Pimentel

Pleasure Garden Follies, Book Three

Bastian Wycliffe, the Earl of Wendelhem, has finally moved on…or so he thought. En route to a hunting trip after over-indulging the night before, he endures a frightful and terribly embarrassing swoon. He’s seen a ghost and her name is Cordelia Waite, the Duchess of Downsbury.

Mrs. Weylen, formerly a duchess, has a secret. All it took was the chance meeting in the inn that fateful night for her memories to come back and haunt her. She makes haste returning to London incognito with the intent to clear up misconceptions and to deliver an ultimatum to her former lover.

Yet, when a newfound obsession refuses to accept the truth, and her imprisoned husband discovers she’s still alive, their lives and relationship may be in danger. Second chances have never been more precarious.

Genre: Erotic Historical Romance

Publisher: Liquid Silver Books

Liquid Silver | Amazon | Kobo | B&N | Play | iBooks

 

As expected, the courtesan arrived at Bastian’s estate at six o’clock, wearing a gown of a scandalous red hugging her fine, feminine curves. Her bosom was nearly bursting, and if he had to guess, she probably wore nothing beneath. Something he appreciated, but was not necessary. His only plan for tonight was to see how well she behaved with company present. He wanted to observe her table manners and how well she could think on a whim.

If he was considering on making the acquaintance of another fine female specimen, she would have to be prepared for all that was expected of her. He could not entertain guests and have a companion who was ill-mannered and insulted the expectations of proper decorum. Despite his flair for untamed sexual urges and his need to dominate, he still had to behave like an earl in the eyes of the public. He still had his various tenants and business associates to deal with.

Which is probably what bothered him so much about Cordelia. There was a woman who had impeccable manners and knew how to please him. Unfortunate though that she had belonged to another.

There was not much Bastian regretted in this life. Even coveting the Downsbury’s wife had not bothered him in the least. But he honestly wished that the Duke of Brimley would have ended his life. Things would have been so much easier for them—less complicated and taxing.

That was the only time he had ever considered marriage. But the woman belonged to another, and now she was dead. Fat ounce of good did the situation fare. He physically shook himself. Stop thinking about her, man.

“Your home is quite handsome, my lord,” Daisy addressed as she walked past him, taking a moment to squeeze his rear. “Do you entertain here often?”

“Sometimes. I imagine now that things have settled, the gents will come calling again, though I do expect to be called to parties and all. If things work out between us, Daisy, and I do say liberally, I am interested in seeing what you have to offer.”

The young woman giggled and flounced over to the dais. “Hmm…I have plenty to offer, my lord. The question is—how much more do you plan on corrupting me?”

Wouldn’t you like to know?

Born and raised in Toronto, Ontario, Layna discovered her love of reading at an early age. She’s a bestselling author at All Romance eBooks, and multi-published author of historical, paranormal and contemporary erotic romances. When she isn’t devouring salacious romance novels or writing, she enjoys losing herself in researching ancient history and mythology, weaponry, and hiking. She lives in Northern Ontario, with her husband and two daughters.

#8Sunday: Blue and red lights danced across her ceiling in Alien Attraction #scifi #romance

Welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post! 

This month, I’m sharing excerpts from Alien Attraction, the third book in my Alien Next Door series. I’ve decided to share snippets about the orb that is part of every story in this series. This excerpt comes from the first chapter as well, when the orb first flashes for Angela. What happened in between? Well, you’ll have to read the story to find out…

Lights flickered to her left. She spun toward her bedroom, where blue and red beams danced across her walls and ceiling.

A few cautious steps and she reached the entrance. Peeking inside, she searched for the source of the luminescence. Inside her closet, the box she’d tucked in the back corner less than an hour earlier, lay on its side, with the orb in the middle of the floor, lighting up her bedroom like a disco ball. What had caused it to fall over? And why was it flashing two colors? According to her father and Adam, it pulsed with lights of red or blue, not both. Knowing Angela’s luck, the orb had little life remaining, giving one last show before it finally died.

Shaking her head, she picked up the extraterrestrial object, not at all surprised it stopped flashing with her touch. Stupid ball.

ALIEN ATTRACTION

She wants to be more alien.

He wants to be more human.

Born a galaxy apart, will Angela and Chal have a chance at love, or will their extraterrestrial secrets leave them running to stay alive?

He was where he belonged #MySexySaturday from ALIEN ADMIRER #scifiromance #books

Hello and welcome to the 136th week of My Sexy Saturday.

Here are the details: every Saturday, published and unpublished authors will be sharing 7 words, sentences, or paragraphs from a work-in-progress or an already published story.

Today’s theme is…

MY SEXY DAY

For today’s post, I’m sharing an excerpt from ALIEN ADMIRER, the second book in my Alien Next Door series.

Setup: Adam has finally won over Sera’s affections, and he has taken them to the local amusement park for the day.

God, how had she been lucky enough to find a guy who cared so much? He’d taken them to the aquarium the week before. And today, an amusement park.

He included her children in just about everything, never complaining they were a hindrance to getting her in bed. And once they fell asleep, he made her feel all woman, leaving her oh-so-satisfied and always wanting more. Except for Thursday nights, when he played poker with his friends, and the occasional night out of town for work, he spent every evening at her house. Where he belonged.

When she’d decided to start dating again, she hadn’t expected their relationship to progress so fast. Once it had though, she didn’t want to go back to her life without Adam.

Sera headed toward the closest concession stall while eyeballing the line for Tower of Doom. Adam had Zach in his arms and played a counting game with Melody. A familiar tingle swept through her. After only a few weeks, she loved Adam Jones.

He peered over at her from his place in line smiled as if reading her mind. More than once, she’d wondered if he had telepathic abilities, since he always seemed to know when she needed comforting, a moment to herself, and even an extra boost of confidence. Was she that transparent?

While they stood in line, she bought drinks, hoping to meet them once they’d finished on the ride. Propping the cups on the bench beside her, she waited near the exit.

“Sera? Is that you?”

How was she lucky enough to find him? #Excerpt from Alien Admirer by Jessica E. Subject

ALIEN ADMIRER

He fills her with forbidden longing…

Widowed for over a year, Sera longs for the company of her younger, sexier neighbor, the one man she can never have—unless she plans to rob the cradle. It’s too dangerous…

She’s the only one for him…

Adam never wanted to settle down…until Sera. But even when her children give him the green light, he must prove age is an alien concept…

Will Sera give him a chance, or will Adam be left in the cold, never more than her alien admirer?

Alien Adoration (Alien Next Door #1) is now perma-free! #freeread #books #scifiromance

As of next month, Alien Adoration has been published for three years. It is the first book in my Alien Next Door series, and has been free several times during various promotions. I’ve decided to make it permanently free with the hopes that readers like you will enjoy Rachel and Luke’s story, and want to read the other two books in the series.

ALIEN ADORATION

Erotic dreams fill her with need…

Night after night, Rachel fantasizes about her sexy, playboy neighbor. But in her small town, no one changes, least of all the bad boy next door. But when Luke rescues her not once but twice from disastrous dates, she dares to believe her knight in black leather armor may be the right man for her after all.

Until she learns the truth…

Life on Earth has never been easy for Luke. Stranded as a little boy, he struggled to craft an existence for himself, but he never forgot the first human he met–and he never stopped wanting to see her again. Returning to Hanton, Luke longs for Rachel. Yet nothing goes as he plans, and Rachel barely notices him.  Convincing her he isn’t like all the jerks she’s dated means telling her the truth, but can she handle it?

Can she overcome her fears, or will she deny her alien adoration and leave him stranded once more?
