#SFRMonday ~ Shifters & Aliens in a SEXY twofer from author @AllieRitch #scifirom #99cents

For this week’s SFRMonday, I’m featuring two stories by Allie Ritch in One Volume: Breeding Season and Alien Sex Therapy

 

Looking for a new SFR series to follow? Get a taste of Allie Ritch’s Children of Nanook SFR/shifter series and her hot Alien Sex Ed series by reading two short stories set in the same worlds. Both stories are in one volume for only 99 cents on Amazon.

BREEDING SEASON: For the Children of Nanook—shifters who can take the form of the deadly frost bear—passions run high during breeding season. Desna has already chosen the mate of her heart, but can Karpok defeat the male who wants to take her from him?

ALIEN SEX THERAPY: Cedecians morph from male to female and back again. That makes their race truly bisexual, but Cai has never made love as a woman. Maybe a hot new relationship with Maddox, the four-armed Brachoi in the apartment across from her, is the perfect sex therapy.

AVAILABLE FROM: Amazon

 

Excerpt from “Alien Sex Therapy” (adult content):

He was having dinner at Maddox’s place tonight, and he needed to get changed in more ways than one. After a quick shower, Cai stood in front of the bathroom mirror. He was average height for his race and built lean, but he had good muscles. His chest and abdomen were hairless, making his dark thatch of pubic hair stand out more prominently. Although he had heard that some of the other races had bigger cocks, his shaft was well proportioned to his body and rose nice and straight when he was aroused. Right now, his penis hung mostly limp, though all it would take was a fantasy about Maddox to get him hard.

As Cai stared at himself naked in the mirror, he felt his hormones shift and watched his body change. Though his eyes and hair remained the same, he saw his face grow softer and more feminine. His narrow hips took on an extra curve that set off his waistline, and his nipples pushed out from his ribcage as firm breasts took shape beneath them. The most miraculous alteration occurred between his legs. What made him distinctly male shrank and morphed into labia and a clit, completing his transformation into a woman.

Cai’s closet was filled with both men’s and women’s clothing. Usually she liked to wear pants and shirts, the same as she did in her male body, but tonight she made an exception. She pulled on the dress she had bought last month with Maddox in mind. It was form-fitting and dyed a deep wine color, and it was held up by a single strap decorated with faux diamothysts. She felt very sensual in the dress. It made her aware of her own sex appeal, which was strangely empowering.

After slipping on a pair of strappy shoes, she left her apartment and crossed the hall. Maddox’s door was ajar, so she let herself in and shut it quietly behind her. He was busy in the kitchen and had his back to her, which gave her a great view of his jean-clad backside and impressively broad shoulders. The sleeves of his gray dress shirt were pushed up to his elbows, exposing the light dusting of hair on his two sets of forearms. She wondered if he shopped at a Brachoi store or had to have his shirts custom tailored for him.

Cai cleared her throat. “It smells good in here. What are you cooking?”

Maddox turned with a bright smile that nearly stopped her heart. Then his carmine eyes heated, and she felt a flush travel over her skin where his gaze swept over her. If she had any doubt about his attraction to her, the deepening crimson of his cherry skin would have set her straight. Even physically, the Brachoi weren’t understated with their passion.

“I’m making spicy stir fry,” he told her. “I was in the mood for something hot.”

Maddox had a short apron tied around his waist. He wiped his hands on it before he walked over to greet her.

“It looks like I got my wish. You certainly look scorching in that dress.”

“Thank you.” A wave of pleasure washed through Cai, but it came with a bad case of jitters.

He must have noticed her hesitation, because he only planted a gentle kiss on her lips—tender and undemanding—before he returned to the kitchen.

“Have a seat,” he said. “There’s wine on the table, and dinner will be ready soon.”

“Where did you learn to cook?” Cai sat in the small dining area off the kitchen and poured some wine as she watched him.

He added some meat and mixed vegetables together. Still stirring with one hand, he used another to hold up a small packet.

“Ti Sala Spices,” he said. “The recipe is on the back of the package. I don’t claim to be a chef, but I’m smart enough to follow directions.”

“That’s more cooking than I usually do. I’m sure it will be wonderful.”

He smiled and continued to work. A few minutes later, he had everything done and carried two plates to the table. She blamed the steam for her warm cheeks, but it was really his nearness that affected her. When she took her first bite, she felt the heat spread down her throat and through her belly.

“Too much spice?” he asked.

Cai shook her head. “I can handle it.”

“I’m sure you can.” His lips curled up in a smile as he sipped his wine.

Abducted by TWO Sexy Aliens in SATIN SHEETS IN SPACE #MySexySaturday #1NightStand @DecadentPub

Hi peeps! It’s the week 89 of My Sexy Saturday. I missed last Saturday, as I was attending the awesome Romancing the Capital conference. It was the first of hopefully many hosted by the wonderful Eve Langlais. I had a blast meeting all the readers and authors there. And good news! Eve decided to host another in 2016. You can find more information on the site: http://orc.evelanglais.com/

Here are the details for My Sexy Saturday: 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…

SEXY ME TWICE

I decided to do my own interpretation of the theme, so here’s seven from

SATIN SHEETS IN SPACE.

Set-up: I don’t normally write alien abduction stories, and this didn’t really start out as one, but when Danyka agrees to leave the ball with her date, she winds up in his spaceship. And then she meets his just-as-sexy brother…

At their request, Danyka stood beside the bed, and waited for one of the brothers to move. They stared for what seemed like hours, when in reality, seconds had passed. Finally, Volan slid off the bed and approached her from behind. She dared not move for fear she’d wake up and learn this had all been a dream. As his warm breath tickled her skin, he reached around and slid his hands inside her corset. He cupped her breasts, lifting them out of the restricting material. Kissing her neck, he worked magic across her bare flesh with his hands.

Galan drew closer, peeling off her pasties before he leaned down and sucked on her nipple. She gasped, overwhelmed by her longing, the heat invading her body.

Enhancing each sensation, Volan rubbed her other pebbled peak between his fingers. “Do you want to leave us?”

She whimpered. “No, but please don’t hurt me.” Her only fear of being with these aliens and two men at the same time.

Galan gazed up at her, unhooking her corset. “We could never bring you any harm. You’re our sodalis, should you decide to stay.”

His brother unzipped her skirt, letting it pool at her feet. “No, we’ll never hurt you, our sodalis.”

She didn’t care what sodalis meant, for these two worshiped her body, their hands and mouths exploring every inch. A nip here, a squeeze there, sent her closer to release. By the time they’d laid her on the bed, they’d stripped her of all her clothing. Volan stretched his naked body beside her, his large cock jutting into her hip, and stroked her breasts. At the edge of the bed, Galan finished removing his garments. He crawled behind her, pressing his body, his ample erection against her bare ass.

~ About SATIN SHEETS IN SPACE ~

Danyka’s unusual height and radiant red hair earn her the cold shoulder from any guy she approaches, unless he wants to experiment with a giant. So when her boss sets up on a one night stand, she hopes for a prince but expects the usual toad.

As a captivating stranger whisks her away from the ball and introduces her to his equally gorgeous brother, she fears her fantasies have become a nightmare. Has she finally given into impulse only to become a lab rat in an unknown world?

Romancing the Capital 2015 ~ Recap and Pictures #RTCOttawa

Hello everyone! Have you ever been to a romance reader conference? I attended my first this past weekend. Romancing the Capital was held in Kanata (a suburb of Ottawa) and hosted and sponsored by the fabulous Eve Langlais. Approximately fifty authors and two hundred readers attended, with even more arriving for the book signing on Saturday.

After the drive there with the amazing Deborah Cooke and checking in, I rode the elevator to meet my wonderful roommate for the conference, Kacey Hammell, who later introduced me to the awesome Kali Willows. Immediately after, I took the elevator to the top floor to help stuff reader bags for registration the next day. A late author dinner finished off the evening, where I met many others I’d known only online, but never met in person.

Friday was the first official day of the conference, with workshops, intimate author chats, and author fun events starting at 9 AM. But first, I got to meet my long-time critique partner, Layna Pimentel, for the first time, as well as my editors, Kate Richards and Valerie Mann. I was a part of the Decadent Snack Time that day, where I joined up with my fellow Decadent Publishing peeps to meet readers and aspiring authors. Then we had a break before the Mad Hatter Dinner and Party.

Saturday started early, too. I was a part of the Speed Date An Author event, where we talked about our stories and other books with a long line of readers. It was a huge success, thanks to all of Kali Willows hard work in planning it. The book signing, which followed lunch was fabulous. Readers flocked into the Kanata Ballroom, with most stopping by their favorite authors first before making their way around the room to visit everyone else. Simply amazing! Many of the readers who I’d chatted with at the event before, visited me again at the signing. And the evening finished off with another fabulous dinner.

For a first time event, Romancing the Capital was simply fantastic! I loved meeting authors and readers alike. A great experience for me, who sits in my office at home to work. It’s great to throw the computer away and talk to everyone face-to-face. Well, I didn’t throw the computer away, but it stayed home for the event.

We left early Sunday morning, but even filling up with gas, we were still chatting with readers. It was the best event as an author that I’ve ever been to. And I can’t wait to do it again next year. I’ve already signed up with some of my friends as a sponsor. If you didn’t make it this year, I hope to see you in 2016! http://orc.evelanglais.com/

 

 

 

 

 

 

#SFRMonday Struggling to thrive in male dominated world ~ THE BREEDER TRILOGY by @CaraBristol #scifirom

I’m pleased to spotlight the Breeder trilogy by Cara Bristol for #SFRMonday.

THE BREEDER TRILOGY
by Cara Bristol

Breeder is a science fiction romance trilogy by Cara Bristol is about women struggling to thrive in male dominated world. The three novels are Breeder, Terran, and Warrior.

Breeder blurb

To secure his legacy, Commander Dak, a ruling Alpha of planet Parseon, purchases Omra, a breeder slave. He intends to impregnate her, produce a son, and hand her off to his anointed beta partner. As Dak and Omra discover a sexual bliss banned by law, he begins to question the traditions and ways of his people, causing him to jeopardize his command and endanger the life of the woman he has come to love.

Amazon | Amazon UK

If not for the sneeze, Dak would have exited the musty, dank corridor. But the muffled sound caught his attention. When he squinted into the darkened cell, he spotted a female crouched on a straw mat in the corner. He hadn’t noticed her on his way into the Breeder Containment Facility; the habitation unit had appeared empty.

Dak turned to the BCF director and sighed. “What about her?”

The beta’s already crooked mouth drooped farther in distaste. “My apologies, Commander. You don’t want that one.”

Sival’s disparagement piqued Dak’s interest. The director’s opinion had proven worthless; none of the breeders he’d preselected for inspection had rated close to satisfactory.

“I would like to see her,” Dak insisted.

“Very well, Commander.” Sival saluted and opened the habitation cell with a master entry card. Dak stepped into the small enclosure. The director followed, and the metal gate clanked shut.

The naked female drew into a tighter ball and tucked her face deeper into the crook of her arm. Other breeders had preened as soon as they’d noticed him and his chest-insignia identification. He wasn’t just an alpha. He was the Alpha.

This breeder’s lack of respect and failure to adhere to Protocol by acknowledging his presence struck him as odd. Dak frowned. “Is she mentally deficient?”

Sival tightened his lips. “No, stubborn, ill behaved. She would not befit an Alpha Commander.” He nudged the female’s hip with the toe of his boot. “Rise to your feet.” She did not respond, and he moved to prod her again. Dak forestalled him with a wave and grasped the female’s arm.

“You will stand.” He hauled her upright. She averted her face, so he grabbed her chin and forced her to look at him. Tangled hair the color of black heating stones fell back from an oval face to reveal eyes like the Parseon moon. The glimmer of intelligence that sparked within the violet depths aroused his interest more than anything else he’d seen so far. Nature had bestowed the Parseon people with an exceptionally strong immune system so that they rarely required medical intervention, but breeders by nature were weak, and so many of the ones he’d seen had seemed dull or ill or both. This one’s skin, when unsmudged by grime and dirt, probably glowed like the pale sands of the Ospian Sea. He supposed, as breeders went, she wasn’t unattractive, although the stench emanating from her was. His beta would throw a fit if he dragged such a creature into their domicile.

“Why is she so filthy?” he asked.

“She refuses to bathe.”

As Dak scrutinized her facial features for shape and symmetry, he noted little imperfection or dysgenics other than her lack of hygiene and her gender. When cleaned up, she would please the eye, but to bear his sons, it mattered more that she be healthy and strong.

He released her face, stepped back, and assessed her from head to toe. He exceeded the height of most males, alphas included, while she stood smaller than the average female. The top of her head failed to even meet his shoulder. She was thinner than other breeders too, although her chest bore an abundance of fatty breast tissue. In the chill of the cell, her nipples had puckered to hard points. Despite the coolness, he was experiencing a rise in temperature. A dormant lust chose that moment to kindle, causing heat to coil in his abdomen and groin. He could not remember the last time he’d experienced such a spontaneous reaction—if he ever had. With the pads of his fingers, he probed the sides of her neck for swollen areas. The way she trembled under his touch aroused a sliver of sympathy. Breeders lacked courage, and uncertainty frightened them. Not all alphas and their betas treated breeders well. If he chose her, she would be adequately fed and housed. His command consumed his time and energy, which left his beta alone for long stretches. A breeder would relieve Corren of household chores and provide him with a physical outlet as well.

“What is she called?” Dak asked.

“Her sire named her Omra.”

Peace, it meant.

He parted Omra’s lips with his fingers and slipped a digit into her mouth, running it along her upper gum line to check the solidness of her teeth. At a flash in her eyes, he jerked his hand away a centisecond before she snapped her jaws together, so that her incisor only grazed the tip of his finger.

Sival’s face reddened. “Commander, I apologize. I will have her flogged.”

“Unnecessary. I will take care of it.” He unclipped the sudon from his belt.

 

Terran (Breeder 2) Blurb

After fleeing loneliness and heartache on Terra, Tara Diehl has adjusted to male-dominated Parseon better than most vendors–until she is kidnapped by Alpha Marlix, one of the five rulers of the planet. At first she’s terrified of her tall, muscled abductor, especially when he doesn’t hesitate to quell her struggle for freedom with a little corporal discipline. After all her methods and ploys to escape fail, she decides to seduce her way to freedom.

But out of seduction and subterfuge grow a true intimacy that cause Marlix and Tara to take action that drives Parseon to the brink of civil war, and threatens not only their relationship, but also their lives.

Terran, the second book in the Breeder sci-fi series, is a “capture” romance involving a domineering but hunky alien, and a female with a bad dye job and an even worse attitude.

Amazon | Amazon UK

 

Warrior (Breeder 3) blurb

A female fighting for freedom.  A male armed with determination. Can they save their people?

As a despotic Qalin marches through Parseon intent on conquering every province, Commander Marlix pledges his sister to another Alpha to protect her. Desperate to decide her own fate, Anika flees and finds refuge with the guerilla resistance movement against Qalin. Marlix’s aide Urazi hunts her down to bring her home to fulfill her duty. But when love blossoms between them, and provinces fall to Qalin, Anika and Urazi realize home has ceased to exist, and they are all that stand between the people of Parseon and the end of the world.

Recruiter for the Space Service ~ #TeaserTuesday from SUDDEN BREAKAWAY #1NightStand #99cents #sfrgtt

Hello everyone! I’m excited to share my fourth Teaser Tuesday post, this time from SUDDEN BREAKAWAY.

The Sci-Fi Romance Group is a Facebook group filled with authors and readers who enjoy science fiction romance. There is a limited amount of promo allowed in the group, but it is a place to discuss the genre in books, movies, television formats, and more. You can find it here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/the.scifi.romance.group/

Set-up: While this title is more contemporary than most of my stories, it does have a sci-fi aspect to it. This excerpt reveals that…

Ms. Brown. Everyone knew her by that name, or at least those she tried to recruit for the Space Service did. For once, though, she wanted to be someone else, maybe herself. If she could shed the black designer suit and lose the title, she could simply be Paige.

The moment she’d signed the contract with the top-secret organization, she’d left Paige and the life she knew behind. Living in the shadows had been easy with her husband by her side, until agents destroyed the portal to the space station to keep terrorists from getting their hands on alien technology. Her husband—her only link to her old life—remained trapped there until the powers-that-be deemed it safe to repair the link.

She regretted agreeing to his traveling there for training while she remained on Earth, anxious about his welfare and resentful of the separation.

She continued to recruit for the Space Service, her work all she had to distract her from thinking of her faraway husband and empty bed. It wasn’t until the divorce papers had been forwarded to her communicator, from space, that she’d regretted signing the lifetime contract. Her husband hadn’t waited for her, choosing to bed some extraterrestrial bitch light years away.

She scanned her thumb across the ignition of her luxury sedan—only the best for members of the Space Service. None of it mattered anymore. She’d lost her enthusiasm for fostering relationships between Earth and the many worlds in the universe sustaining intelligent life. No, she wanted to stay on her home planet and find the love and happiness she’d thought she once had with her ex-husband.

She smirked, considering the possibility of her dream if she didn’t find any new recruits soon. The Space Service would revoke her contract. Her last three prospects had turned down her offer of an “out of this world” work environment, not once, but repeatedly. Why hadn’t she found the same strength, all those years ago to turn down the man in black who’d visited her and her husband? Though if she didn’t recruit, what would she do for a living?

~ About SUDDEN BREAKAWAY ~

Dressed in her black designer suit, Paige Brown recruits men and women for the Space Service. After the end of her marriage, and several failed recruiting missions, she yearns to find a way out of her lifelong contract to live a normal life. To find love again.

Jared Barnes’s life had been flipped upside down by two little kids. When his former Commander’s wife shows up to give him a reprieve, he jumps at the chance for a break, and to visit his former squad. But it is not his buddies he meets in the private suite at a hockey game, instead a woman who has been the star of all of his recent fantasies, fulfills his wildest dreams except the one that binds his heart.

Has Madame Eve made a mistake or can two lonely hearts overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles?

Only 99¢ USD for the month of April from:

US | UK | Canada | Germany | Australia

#SFRMonday ~ He’s the leader of the rebel cyborgs ~ ADAM by @EveLanglais #scifirom

Please welcome Eve Langlais and her new release ADAM from her Cyborgs series to the blog. Eve is hosting the Romancing the Capital conference this coming weekend, where you’ll be able to meet us both.

ADAM ~ Cyborgs: More Than Machines
by Eve Langlais

Adam survived the great cyborg purge because the military made a mistake, a mistake they lived to regret. They crossed the line when they decided to take away his free will and turn him into a machine. They erroneously thought him a slave they could command. However, their biggest screw up of all was when they didn’t terminate him at the first sign cyborgs were regaining sentience.

As the rebel cyborg leader on Earth, Adam is doing everything he can to rescue others of his kind. Part of his current, undercover mission involves infiltrating a top secret military facility where he comes in contact with a human scientist. A sexy scientist whom he’s ordered to protect.

What should have been an easy job turns into a fight for his life because it’s not just bullets and hit squads he’s got to worry about, but his heart.

How can one fragile female mean so much? It’s almost too much for a rational-minded cyborg to understand. When the choice is given, escape or let her die, he lets his heart decide, and after that, things start to explode—literally.

AVAILABLE FROM:

Amazon | Nook | Kobo | iBooks | Google Play

 

The Cyborgs: More Than Machines series can be read as stand alone stories, however, for total reader enjoyment and world immersion, it is recommended you read them in order.

“How can you not have a television in your living room?” He couldn’t help blurting his incredulous query.

“Because I don’t need one.”

“Don’t need one?” He practically sputtered the words, his disbelief overwhelming. “But what do you do to entertain yourself? How do you play video games? Watch movies?” While it should be noted, he could technically do all these things wirelessly, there was a tactile enjoyment in flopping in a comfortable chair or couch and munching on dietary useless carbs while visually enjoying the antics of good cinema or challenging his dexterous skills as he manipulated a video game controller.

“I work most of the time, and when I’m not working, or researching, I’m sleeping.”

“Surely you do something for relaxation? Your entire life can’t revolve around the lab?”

“I like my work, but if you must know, I do also like to read.” At his raised brow, she blushed, the pink in her cheeks enticing. “Non-fiction books usually about my work.”

“But what about having fun?” As she shifted her stance, adopting a defensive posture, he realized how his accusation might sound. I just accused her of being boring.

“Who says I’m not enjoying myself?”

“Me. Don’t forget, I’ve been watching you for some time now, and with the exception of tonight, when the director left you that mysterious cooler, your heart rate has never spiked, your eyes haven’t shone with excitement, and I’ve certainly never heard you laugh.”

“How would you know if my heart beats faster? For all you know, I’m in a constant adrenaline rush when I’m working. I’m a scientist. I get a kick out of discovery.”

A snort escaped him. “What a load of crap.”

Spine straight, she fixed him with a glare. “Would you mind not insulting me in my own home? What business is it of yours anyhow how I entertain myself?”

“It’s none of my business. But I’d hate to think you’re missing out.”

“Missing out? On what? Fictional creations about absurd situations?”

“Forget television for a moment. What about the simple rush you get out of doing something for pleasure? Like hiking up a scenic mountain. Scuba diving and observing the beauty of nature on a coral reef.” Things that even he, with his analytical mind, could appreciate. “What about the enjoyment that comes out of sharing an adventure with a friend, or a lover…” Why was it, when it came to Doctor Laura, his mind always revolved back to more intimate matters? She drew him like no other.

Her expression turned sad for a moment before tightening. “My work is important. Time enough later for me to indulge in frivolous activities.”

“Or you could squeeze time in for them now.”

“Says the guy assigned to watch over me. Don’t tell me you think us going out to paint the town red is a good idea, given the threat supposedly to CyberGlys employees.”

“You don’t have to go out to have fun.”

“So what do you propose we do? Play a board game? Cards?”

“I’ve got something better than that.” Before she could question him some more, he showed her what he meant.

Reeling her into his arms didn’t take any thought, or weighing of the pros and cons of his actions. He’d wanted to kiss her all evening. Weeks even. Pretty much from the first moment he’d begun observing her he’d wanted to see if her lush lips would prove pliant under his.

They were. Soft and welcoming.

For so long, he’d wanted to draw her against him and see how she molded to his frame.

She fit perfectly, her lush curves a perfect complement to his hard body.

He’d wanted to see if, beneath her prim and serious exterior, there lurked passion.

By all the nanos in his body, she practically melted him with the heat she unleashed with just one long, and sensual, kiss.

With his senses tingling, their lips separated, and they stared at each other, her bright brown eyes behind her glasses meeting his gaze with wonder. A wonder he understood. Her breath, already coming faster, brushed warmly against him.

The moment stretched, fraught with anticipation and desire. The cognitive part of his brain suggested he step away. Getting involved with the doctor, however pleasurable, wasn’t part of his mission. It could prove a danger, especially given her scientific background. What if she recognized what he was? She could jeopardize more than his life. It was an unacceptable risk.

And yet…

The man within said fuck it.

He crushed her to him, his arms wrapping around her tight, his mouth claiming hers with intensity and determination. She will know excitement.

Already her heart raced. It pounded, the blood in her coursing frantically as it brought all of her nerves alive. At the same time, her body went limp in his arms, a languorous arousal weakening her muscles. But she needn’t fear falling.

I have her, and I’m not letting go. I will show her pleasure. With me. And only me.

He could no more help the possessive feelings than he could resist her allure.

Her desire for him rose in a musky perfume, the layers of clothes separating them, unable to hide the evidence, not with his enhanced senses.

It served only to heighten his arousal. Hard. Harder than the steel they’d strengthened his bones with. Harder than the locks on the firewalls guarding his electronic secrets. So hard…it hurt?

Pain wasn’t something he needed to feel unless he chose to, yet with her, he let the agony of wanting her and holding back fill him. The wild urgency was intoxicating. Not ruled by programming or rational thought, he just felt. Felt on a level he’d not imagined.

It made him forget where he was, who he was, and the danger his very existence posed. But lucky for them both, he was capable of faster-than-human reaction because, when the window shattered, he knew enough to spin his body and present his back in the split second before the deadly shards blasted them.

But more ominous than the deadly rain of glass was the thump and ticking of the metallic ball with its flashing red warning.

A bomb. Ah, hell.

I love to write, and while I don’t always know what my mind is going to come up with next, I can promise it will be fun, probably humorous and most of all romantic, because I love a happily ever after.

Thanks so much for coming by and checking me out. If you’d like to know more, read some excerpts or find out what’s coming next, then please visit me at http://www.EveLanglais.com

Fantasy come to life in SUDDEN BREAKAWAY #MySexySaturday #1NightStand @DecadentPub #99cents

Hi peeps! It’s the week 87 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…

ARE YOU SEXY

Here’s seven from Sudden Breakaway, which is only 99¢ for the month of April.

Set-up: Jared finally gets a night out after becoming guardian to his young niece and nephew, only to find out he’s been set up on a date. Then he learns his date is a woman he’s recently fantasized about, but never expected to see her again.

Her posture relaxed as she raised her eyebrows. “You fantasized about me?”

No turning back. “Yes, and let me tell you, you were amazing.”

A smile spread across her lips and into her mesmerizing brown eyes, sending shivers down his spine.

“Really?” Her sultry tone made him want to rip that red material off her. “Because you always left me satisfied in mine, every time.”

His cock sprang to life, painful inside his jeans. He had to have her, feel her curvy body underneath his. No, not quite yet. “What’s your first name, Ms. Brown?”

“Paige, why?”

“Because I needed to know before I did this.” Wrapping one arm around her waist, he drew her next to him. He salivated as he took in her vanilla scent. How ironic.

~ About SUDDEN BREAKAWAY ~

Dressed in her black designer suit, Paige Brown recruits men and women for the Space Service. After the end of her marriage, and several failed recruiting missions, she yearns to find a way out of her lifelong contract to live a normal life. To find love again.

Jared Barnes’s life had been flipped upside down by two little kids. When his former Commander’s wife shows up to give him a reprieve, he jumps at the chance for a break, and to visit his former squad. But it is not his buddies he meets in the private suite at a hockey game, instead a woman who has been the star of all of his recent fantasies, fulfills his wildest dreams except the one that binds his heart.

Has Madame Eve made a mistake or can two lonely hearts overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles?

Only 99¢ USD from:
