Tell us a bit about yourself.

I am an eternal optimist and an insatiable reader/writer, especially of high heat romance. I love a good, exciting story.

I write in several genres; however, my favourite is contemporary romance. I love reading historical romances, but I do not know if I would be able to write one. Also, I have read so many, they are beginning to blur together; what’s left to write about…but then again, one must never say never. I do love writing children’s books, and this I do for relaxation. I find it easy to slip back into my childhood, where I take the time to play.


What inspired you to write your first book?

My situation is a little bit different. I wrote my first book for my book for my job, so I have to say I saw a need at work and I stepped in and fulfilled that need.


How did you come up with the title of your book?

The title of my book, Black Magic Man is exactly what is says. It is about a Black Magic Man. I had already written the story of the White Magic Woman.


Describe your main character in five words.

Alpha, Aggressive, Arrogant, Conniving and Manipulative


What was one of the most surprising things you learned in creating your book?

I learned that some readers are drawn to the villain in the story and sometimes feel conflicted.


How long does it take you to write a book?

It depends, with a 50K MS, about a month. A novella, about one week.


Can you share a little of your current work with us?

I just finished a novella for Mother’s Day, which will be out this month and I’m working on a contemporary romance, due out in June.


What is your work schedule like when you’re writing?

When I’m writing, I write 5000 words a day. I don’t do it all in one sitting. I type 1000 and I move on to something else… house cleaning, shopping, cooking, etc.


Do you have any writing rituals?

Yes and no. By that I mean I try to keep to my commitment of 5000 words a day. It has to be completed before I retire for the night.


What book are you reading now?

Nalini Singh’s Archangel’s Legion.



Do you have anything specific that you want to say to your readers?

Please drop me a line if you enjoy my books. I love hearing from you.

His laughter could be heard on the night air as he found the woman’s house. He could not enter now, but no one could stop him from watching her, getting his fill of her. He would have her. She would be his exclusively, as it was meant to be… Patience, patience!

Review: The Capo: Riccardo by Elle Raven & Aimie Jennison

Title: The Capo: Riccardo

SERIES: Book Two – Stud Mafia Series
AUTHORS: Elle Raven and Aimie Jennison
RELEASE DATE: May 10th, 2015
GENRE: Erotic Thriller





Temptation. Seduction. Forbidden pleasure. 

As the right-hand man to The Don, Riccardo Rossi’s role is all about Duty. Respect and Honour. Being the crime boss’s daughter, Lorena Morassi is forbidden. Although she is young and off limits, that doesn’t stop Riccardo from wanting her. She is a pure temptation and to have her would be a betrayal to his Boss and his mafia family.

Lorena has wanted Riccardo for years and she knows he wants her, too. Being with him would only cause bad blood between her father and his right-hand man. She doesn’t want their strong friendship to be ruined, but her feelings for him grow, and Lorena knows she can’t stay away. But a night of seduction and forbidden pleasure changes everything.

Betrayal will not be tolerated and long-standing friendships will be broken.

Warning: This book contains violence, excessive language, and strong sexual content. It’s intended to be read by mature audiences

Amazon: US I UK I AU I CA
iTunes: US I UK I AU
Kobo I B&N

Riccardo and Lorena make a smoking hot couple. Their intensity is off-the-charts hot and their story is pulled together with a great pace and a huge amount of action.

The story develops in a way which kept me on my toes as I held my breath, hoping the two of them would finally get their selves sorted out. Their journey there is explosive.

Great sex scenes, a lovely bit of sweetness, several moments with great tension and a rawness to some of the scenes which were crazy as well as amazing.

An awesome read.

New Release by Dianna Hardy!

A world of Romance, Magic, Gods and Fallen Angels… have you entered it yet?

If you’ve read Dianna Hardy’s Witching Pen series, you will have been treated to a mesh of paranormal (often erotic) romance, urban fantasy, and the more fringe ‘Godpunk’. Following the journey of three women with hidden powers, it takes unexpected twists and turns, right up until its explosive ending.



But there was one loose thread: Lucifer.
What happened to Lucifer?
Now, you finally get to find out.
We are excited to announce that Saving Eve is available to purchase in both eBook and paperback!

Saving Eve



Amid long, wild grass, a snake slithers, hidden.
Hidden until a man opens his eyes…

Awaking with amnesia in St Mary’s Hospital, after a near-fatal freak accident, he is known only as Luc. With the help of Evie Gold, the kind, young woman who found him, he starts a new life – a second chance, a clean slate.

A bond burgeons between them.

But disturbing dreams of dark deeds become waking recountings. A blackness is uncoiling – seductive, familiar and dangerously provocative.

An ancient craving stirs; an old addiction rises.

Nothing is as it seems, and as reality crumbles, Luc finds himself asking, not just who he is, but…

Who is Evie?

From the author of the international bestselling Witching Pen series, Dianna Hardy takes a seed from The Last Dragon, and brings you an existential story of two beings in search of completion.

Alongside the men, demons and angels who love them, they are thrown into a supernatural world where time becomes muddied, where new and ancient merge, where forged bonds cannot be broken, and matters of the heart are never black and white.

And then, there’s the impending apocalypse.
