Bringing Back the Backlist

Over the last few months, I've been asking for rights reversions on short stories I have with some publishers. They're all books that have reached the ends of their contracts or aren't selling for various reasons (poor pricing, bad distribution, etc) so it doesn't make sense to just leave them with publishers who aren't going to hustle to sell books.


 


I went back to the original files and revamped them before editing and formatting. I did the covers for Spurs and Sparks myself using what I learned in one of the super fabulous Not Going to Conference Conference workshops on Romance Divas. I went with simple designs because I have a theme in mind for my short stories that I'll be self-publishing. I want the covers to have a sort of uniform look, if that makes sense.


 


So anywho. Spurs and Sparks are available at All Romance eBooks (PDF, epub, prc, html, and lit formats,) B&N and Amazon. Once I work up the courage to tackle Smashwords, they'll show up on Apple, Kobo, Sony, etc. They're short stories (6000-11,000 words) so I've priced them at 99 cents. Anything else seems a bit too high, especially for previously published works.


 



 


 


Daphne never imagined the sound of spurs could make her so hot. She craves rough and tumble rancher Cord. The idea of burying her nose against his neck and inhaling that deliciously masculine scent of leather, sweat and cedar drives her wild.


No matter how badly he yearns to bring Daphne to his bed, Cord views her as strictly off-limits. She's just the sort of woman he could fall in love with–and that simply wouldn't do.


Daphne isn't so easily discouraged. He's exactly what she needs and she'll prove it to him with one night of raw, unchained passion.


Reader Advisory: This book features steamy trysts with a cowboy, light BDSM, a rather creative use of a belt and graphic language.


*Note* This book was previously published but has been revised and expanded for your reading pleasure.


Available at Amazon, B&N, and All Romance eBooks.


 



 


Oh-so-sexy electrician Logan Weatherly is the only man art gallery owner Bibi Velez wants heating up her sheets. For months, they've danced around their mutual attraction with playful smiles and teasing banter, both of them terrified to risk their friendship on a steamy fling.

Reader Advisory: Contains a wicked hot tryst on a tile floor and one very inventive wake-up featuring super steamy anal play
