A Couple More Teasers Coming Down The Wire
Just a couple more teasers as I count down the last couple of days until A DANGEROUS REALITY goes live on Monday the 12th!
These are a bit steamy, so I am probably only going to send them to the racier bloggers I know.
Wahoooo!! I'm nervous as hell. The response has been overwhelmingly positive so far. It's a new genre for me--having written 30+ MMFs for Siren, I'm treading in completely unknown waters here. It's terrifying, daunting, and exhilarating at the same time!

More Teasers!
Here are two more teasers for A DANGEROUS REALITY.
One of these is racier than the other.
We're getting there! It's with my editor right now, so I am currently plotting out Book #2 which will be titled A GORGEOUS MESS. One of the heroes will be Ormond Tangier, whom you will meet in a strange place, doing something strange, in A DANGEROUS REALITY.

Can I Get a Hell Yeah?
HELL YEAH!! I just typed "THE END" on A DANGEROUS REALITY!! I woke up this morning with that great old R&B song "Let's Just Kiss and Say Goodbye" stuck in my head. Then I realized why. I didn't want to say goodbye to my brand new MC, THE BENT ZEALOTS!
We've got Turk, Twinkletoes, and Lock, and I've just fallen in love with them. I recently manned the entire crew with more familiar faces:
That's Dipstick Hunziger, Rover Florkowski, and Hobie Cleminshaw, names courtesy of my father's Amherst alumni list, and Andrea's dog.
So instead of being sad, I should be excited at this excellent start to a whole new chapter (and new charter) in the world of MC romance! MM MC, I'm calling it. It's not an end—it's a new beginning.

BOOK COVER REVEAL ALERT!
OK, it can now be shown! Red Poppy has once again outdone herself, this time creating a whole fresh look for my new MM series, THE BENT ZEALOTS MC. The cover model is Bobby Creighton, courtesy of James Williams and Island Male Graphics. This is the aforementioned spin-off from THE BARE BONES MC for the beloved Turk Blackburn, who kept popping up in compromising positions throughout the series set in Pure and Easy.
Now Turk is tasked with looking for the rival who is selling crap weed under his trademarked name, so off he scoots to the Laughlin River Run on the Arizona/California border. Most everyone is partying hearty at the annual motorcycle rally, but Turk is hot on the trail--and the pants--of one blond god, Lock Singer, member of the hated Assassins of Youth.
A Dangerous RealityByLayla WolfeBook I of The Bent Zealots MC
Keep your lovers close—and your enemies in bed.
TURKMy club sent me to track him down. And when my mission was over, I never wanted another one again. When I found him, I kicked the shit out of Havelock Singer. I issued the mightiest beatdown of all time. Problem is, we’re evenly matched. We’re equals in every way, and when we finished whaling on each other, exhausted, we fell into each other’s arms.
I’ve never regretted it for an instant. It’s been the ride of my life. But loving another man in the MC world is a risky business. As if our business isn’t already brutal and ruthless enough, Lock’s homophobic sergeant-at-arms Stumpy gets an eyeful of our lovemaking and blackmails us into doing some of his dirty work, or be exposed for what we are—a couple of deviants.
This run into the Indian reservation is sleazy and beneath us, but now I’m cornered, and I’ll do anything to keep my sweet master Lock from being lynched by his club.
LOCKWhen that kingpin Carmine Rojas got a load of my beautiful stallion Turk Blackburn, he’d stop at nothing to have him—and Rojas gets what he wants. It’s my fault we’re in this situation. I should’ve kicked Turk’s ass and sent him packing back to The Bare Bones. I wasn’t even close to being ready to come out, but now they’re forcing my hand.
I can hear my destiny calling me. Either I’ll slink back to my club like a hetero bounty hunter with no morals—and no respect from anyone in my own backyard—or I’ll step up to the plate and be the lion of the day.
Either way, my lover and I are screwed. Our clubs are going to hound us underground or into another country before we escape this mess—if we don’t die trying.

A DANGEROUS REALITY...
....is becoming, well, a dangerous reality. I'm about 25% complete with my Turk Blackburn spinoff book which will be #1 in a new series. So many people bugged me about wanting to know more about Turk's story I decided to spin him off into a new MC series. In THE BARE BONES, we saw him mushing it up in the dispatcher's office at The Citadel, but Ford quickly shut the door on that one. In STAY VERTICAL Lytton caught him in a compromising position with a teddy bear out in the back alley of the weed dispensary. Lytton mentally filed that away under "Blackmail to Be Used Later." Here is my image of the "impossibly beautiful" Turk Blackburn, Bare Bones' Veep:
Thanks, Tom Mison of SLEEPY HOLLOW, for lending your beauty!Who is Turk? What is he up to? Will he ever come out of the closet? In the dangerous and homophobic world of the MC, this is a life-threatening move to make, and Turk's been on the fence about it for years.

BAD TO THE BONES featured in USA Today!
Wahoo! Robin Covington at USA Today has selected my book trailer for her weekly column. She reports that:
"And on the completely opposite end of the sweet spectrum is the sexy trailer for Bad to the Bones by Layla Wolfe. The familiar-but-not-the-same guitar riff grabs you as soon as the video opens. The images are dark and broody and sexy and support the motorcycle club setting. And honestly ... any book that has a "perverse swami" and a heroine in the clutches of a cult is on my TBR list."
Thanks for the vote of confidence, Robin!

THE END!
Wahoo! I just typed those two holy words, the sacred grail for all writers...THE END!
The end, the end, the end! The more times I type that, the weirder it looks.
Feels weird, too. This is always one of the saddest times for a writer, saying goodbye to our little friends who have been by our side through thick and thin. I started writing BAD TO THE BONES a couple days after my father's death, so Bellamy Jager became an even more melancholy and tragic figure than I had foreseen.
But of course she's got her HEA now, so I should feel good about leaving her in the capable hands of The Bare Bones MC, those gallant criminals of Pure and Easy, Arizona.
