Win a copy of Wicked Temptations !


Howdy ! ( yes you can take the girl out of Texas, but you can't take theTexas out of the girl) I hope everyone's first day back into the work week is going well. Mine was busy, busy, busy. This is the first chance I've gotten to kick back and do something non-work/errand related. I've been toying with an idea, and I'd love to get some honest feedback. Would you be interested in seeing a free read on the site? It'd be updated once a week. If the answer is yes, which one of my universes/ characters would you like to learn more about?


Now onto the Newest Contest!

As you all now, Wicked Temptations is due out next Monday. ( Squeals like a teen). I love doing giveaways, but I wanted to do something different this time around. Not only do you enter to win a free copy of Wicked Temptations, you win a ten dollar gift certificate to my wonderful Pub, EverNight. Now that I have your attention: winks: , here are the rules.

To Enter you have to tell me the names of the heroine, and the hero from the story. Hint: They can be found on this site.

The contest will run from 1/18/2012 until 1/23/2012

As always, thanks for subscribing and being amused by my ramblings.

New Years Update

Dear Blog & Bloggers ,


I'm sorry I've neglected you the past couple of weeks. I was caught up in the holiday hell week. The kidlet and I just got back in to Cali, and after a month away that meant grocery shopping, and unpacking. :phew: I'm finally back and ready to get into the swing of things! I even come baring gifts! An excerpt from my newest book Wicked Temptations! The editing process flew by this time, and I've just found out my book is due to release January 23rd!


In other great news! Wolf in Waiting received a 4.5 star rating over at NightOwl Reviews ! I'm over the moon about it.


http://romance.nightowlreviews.com/no...


Luz and Kalyx have a history. She was his mate and she knew it, so did Kalyx. One slight problem, Luz cannot shift. When Kalyx goes through his first shift, he's a mess. It takes him a week to recover and when he does Luz is gone.


It's five years later and Luz returns to attend her sister's wedding as maid of honor. She has created a life for herself, but still feels empty inside. She comes face to face with Kalyx. Time has not changed their feelings for one another. Can they overcome all obstacles to finally find a life together?


This was a short story that was well written and thoroughly enjoyable. Even though the story was short it was a great read. When you need a quick romance fix, this book is just the ticket. So, sit back and enjoy this short and sexy story. You won't be disappointed.


And now as promised the Excerpt. ;)


"Why would you do that, you stupid woman! Youwere completely defenseless just now. I could have done anything."

"Yet,you didn't. How could I ask you to trust me if I don't show you trust first?"

"This is a dangerous game you play." He wrapped his fingers around her waist, staring into her eyes as he willed her to tell him the truth.

"It's not a game, Bo. We'll never move forward until we leave our history behind."

"Your serious aren't you?" he scoffed. "You holy-rollers and your silly faith. I doubtI even know how to trust anymore. It's not exactly a quality you need in myline of work."

"Then perhaps we should re-learn together."

"Re-learn?"

"Believe it or not, there are not many I place my trust in. Even in this life, othersrarely do things without some sort of ulterior motive."

"Who do you trust then?"

"Brea."

"Of course, you do. Everyone loves the new golden girl."

"You know if you'd give her half a chance I think you two could be good friends."

Her words made him shudder. "Perish the thought, Pixie."

"Now this isn't so bad is it?"

"What?"

"Getting to know each other."

"Hmm, is that what we're doing?"

"Yes."

"Too bad it's not real. Once you've played your role, you'll be off on a mission to save the next soul." His words made her flinch, and he smirked. He couldn't afford to forget when everything was said and done, they'd be on opposite sides. "Truth hurt?"

"No, the way you manipulate facts perturbs me."

"Do you mean to tell me you're doing this out of the kindness of your heart? Come on, Anna, we've lived much too long to delude ourselves."

"I may have been assigned to you, but what you do with our time together is up to you!" She rose to her feet, chest heaving and face flushed as she stormed for the door.

"Really?"he asked. His words stopped her shy of the door as she paused. He rose to his feet and stalked forward, feeling pleasure unravel inside him as he backed her into a wall.

"What if I wanted to turn this into something more…intimate?" he whispered. He pressed his body against her lush curves, his hand gripping her hip as he ground his hardening cock against her. A whimper left her lips, and he smirked as her eyes dilated, and her breath hitched. It was good to know he wasn't alone in his twisted attraction.

"S-Stop."She gasped.

"Is that really what you want me to do Anna?" he asked. Boden pulled back.

His hand moved up to cup her full breast, kneading the supple mound as he watched her skin turn pink.

"I asked you a question, Anna." He pinched her nipple and savored her cry. "Is that what you want?"

"N-No."

"I didn't think so. You're a dirty girl, aren't you?"

He rolled the hardened points of her nipples between his fingers as he drank down her reckless abandon. The power she relinquished made him feel like he was on equal footing for the first time since he'd been taken.

"I bet you're soaking wet right now, aren't you?" He slid his hand inside the yoga pants and ran a finger over her moist panties. A satisfied purr left his lips as her hips titled to press the needy part of her against his hand. Her head fell back against the wall.

"This is your secret, isn't it? The perfect golden-haired goody two-shoes likes to be controlled and told she's a bad girl." Whimpers left her throat as he continued to caress her through the thin barrier. Her hips ground up against him.

"Such an eager girl, I think I'll grant you a gift." He leaned down to taste her lips, but thought better of it allowing his lips to caress her ear. His tongue flicked out to lick the delicate shell. "Would you like that?"

"Yes."


Boden moved away to pull her pants down along with her panties. Anna's curly hairs were neatly trimmed, and her apex glistened with the proof of her arousal. He wanted to go to his knees and taste her. To attach his mouth to the swollen bud that peaked from between her puffy lips and suckle her until she came screaming his name. The intense emotions rolled through him, shaking him as he resisted. He needed to remain in control.


"You've got such a pretty little cunt." The foreplay was skipped as he thrust a finger deep inside her tight hole, and she cried out. Her voice was a strange mix of pleasure and pain that had his tip dripping like a faucet.


"Fuck,you're so wet and tight." His finger began to thrust, and her hungry walls sucked him in. Gripped him and held him in their taut embrace.


"You like what I'm doing to you don't you, my girl?"

"Oh God! Yes."

"I'm far from done." He added another finger and pumped faster. "I want to hear you scream my name when you come." Anna's fingers curled around his shoulders as her walls shivered, and she rocked her hips in time with his rhythm. Her walls shuddered around his fingers before they clamped down. A gush of liquid flowed forth as she threw her head back and screamed his name. The shrill cries were music to his ears. Her weight rested against the wall, and their gazes locked as he pulled his digits free and sucked them into his mouth. Her honeyed nectar exploded on his tongue, and he moaned. She tasted like ripe fruit sprinkled with sugar.


"You're the sweetest thing I think I've ever tasted."

"B—"

"Shh, you're not the only one who has things to teach." She looked dazed as she nodded her head and allowed him to right her clothing.

"I think you're the one who needs to think about what we want from our time together. The ball's in your court now."


Hope you guys enjoyed! You can expect more posts from me every week, and some fun giveaways!

Holiday Hellos

Okay it's official. I want a bad ass author photo! I've seen some fantastic ones and now I too would like to join in on the fun. Maybe Santa will bring me a photo session? I hope the holidays are going well for everyone. I'm currently traveling, but I wanted to check in and share what I'm up to. My sister has a fantastic place that leads out to a dock on the water, and it's been peaceful and inspirational! I have a new story in the works! It's my first shot at a ménage, so we'll see how it goes.


In other news, my book Wicked Temptations was accepted by Evernight Publishing! It's the sequel to Don't Fear the Reaper, and features the much asked about demon Boden, and reaper Anna. I'm super excited about this one. The couple sizzles together, and I think I brought a new element into my writing. Always good to keep it fresh. ;)

Merry Christmas, Happy New years, and Happy Holidays to you all,

Shy

Contest for the release of Wolf in Waiting !

The Countdown is on! Just five Days until the release of my newest book Wolf in Waiting! There are a couple of reasons why I'm super psyched about this release. It's my first book with a new publisher (Breathless Press who are fantastic!) and I really felt a kinship with these characters. Luz and Kalyx have been one of my favorite couples to date. There's just something endearing about the shifters who've overcome so much. I'm a huge fan of shape-shifters, and I really wanted to come up with a story that was off the beaten path. I feel as if I accomplished that.


To celebrate the release I'll be running a contest from Monday the 28th through Dec 1st. Just comment for a chance to win a free copy of Wolf in Waiting!


Summary

A shape shifter who can't shift sounds like a punch line to a joke. But for Luz Dryden it's a complicated reality. The one bright light in her life has been her long-time love Kalyx Hunter.

Kalyx shares her strange malady and worships Luz with a passion that overshadows everything else. When Kalyx shifts unexpectedly, Luz flees Blackburn Falls and vows to never look back.

Five years later she's forced back to her home town for her sister's wedding, and Kalyx is determined to convince her they belong together. Luz fights him at every turn, but her body's needs overrides her will.

Kalyx is prepared to take on anyone who tries to keep them apart. But neither anticipated the twisted web of deceit and betrayal they would find themselves tangled in.

She Lives!

Hello All!

First off I have to say thank you for subscribing to my site, and I apologize for my hiatus from updates. Two major things happened in my life that brought my bustling internet life to a halt. Since my motto has and will always be Family above all, I had to take a step back and get things right at home before I resumed my schedule. Yours truly has her second bun in the oven. Hubby , daughter and I are extracted about the recent addition, but I've been so sick it's all I could do to drag myself out of bed. The Dr. has issued meds, and I'm finally seeing a light at the end of the tunnel!

If you've every battled morning sickness you know how "not fun" it is to deal with. Secondly my hubby deployed. It always takes me a bit to get recalibrated and used to him being gone. Now I'm back and ready to chat everyone's ear off. Thanks for your patience and understanding.


Quite a bit has gone on in the past month or so in my writing word too! Wolf in Waiting is due to release Dec 2nd! I love the cover art, and really look forward to the feedback that will follow the release. The couple are very dear to my heart.


On another note my sequel to Don't Fear The Reaper is just about complete! Wicked Temptations is even hotter, and based on the reaper Anna, and the deliciously bad Boden. I know many of you wanted to know more about him, and I hope you're pleased with what you'll find. :D
