#ManCandyMonday – Vampire Ryder Latimer & Happy 15th Anniversary

One of my all time favorite characters is sexy Southern vampire Ryder Latimer from The Calling is Reborn Vampire novels. I love his journey of going from being tortured and alone to embracing the vampire and eventually, dealing with the fact that he might find himself human again. The last is something he may not want since he needs to protect his wife Diana Reyes and their daughter Charlie.

I worked feverishly last week to get this book ready for you for today, not really knowing why until I was busy coding the new page for the DARKNESS CALLS and I realized it’s been 15 years since the release of that book. Now, fifteen years later and over a dozen novels and novellas later, I’m just as in love with this series as I was when I first wrote.

Right now I’m working on getting DANGER CALLS ready, but I’m also working on something very special for fans of the series. I’ve dug out the original manuscript which was much longer and had to be shortened for Harlequin. I’m working on weaving in those deleted scenes to give you guys an extended version of the novel and I hope you’ll like it! Look for that in a few weeks at least. Piecing it back together is a lot harder than cutting out those scenes.

For now, here is how I pictured sexy Ryder when the series first starts. All alone in his own darkness until Diana Reyes steps out of his dreams and into his world.

You can purchase the newly released version of DARKNESS CALLS at the retailers below. As a gift for you, it’s specially priced at 99 cents for a limited time!

#WriteWed – A New York City Writing Experience

My daughter is working in New York City now so I had the pleasure of commuting with her this morning as well as sharing a traditional New York coffee shop experience. We had a great time on the train chatting about the writing projects on which we were both working and the discussion continued as we ate breakfast together. I love that my daughter has developed such an intense passion to write and that we can share that love. She’s been writing in journals since middle school and I’m proud to say she released her first novel, FOLLOWING JANE, five years ago. Right now she’s working on various projects, just like her mom. I’ve got several things going on and as soon as I can share, I will! For now, I’m so glad we got to share this New York City writing experience.

#TeaserTuesday – Sexy Read from The Vampire’s Consort

Today I’m giving you this sexy free read from The Vampire’s Consort. I loved Eliza and Adrian’s story. I also loved Adrian’s friend Jamie who you meet in later chapters. I plan on giving Jamie his own sexy story later this year! For now, your first peek (big pun intended) at The Vampire’s Consort.

Excerpt

WARNING: This excerpt is intended for mature audiences only!
Chapter 1

The first time Eliza had realized the moan was one of pleasure and not pain, she should have walked away from the peephole.

But she hadn’t.

The peephole had been placed in the wall after a so-called Slayer had tried to stake her master. Adrian had subdued the overly eager and decidedly naïve young woman. In time, the Slayer had come to realize that Adrian was not only one of the white hats, but an excellent lay.

Despite the truce struck with the Slayer, Adrian had decided that the peephole was necessary for safety’s sake along with the loaded tranquilizer gun in Eliza’s nightstand.

Luckily she’d not had a reason to use the gun, but the peephole had been another thing. Peering in it had almost become an obsession.

She used it way too often, drawn to it by the sight of Adrian and his lovers. Unable to yank herself away from her gorgeous master as he pleasured yet another willing woman before taking his sip of their blood as compensation for the wicked satisfaction they found in his arms.

Eliza imagined herself in those arms more than she should.

It was wrong, she knew. She was here to serve Adrian and keep his home, not to love him. But after nearly two hundred years of being his consort, it was hard to deny that was exactly what had happened.

Eliza had fallen in love with Adrian.

She loved him and lusted for him, she thought as she peered through the peephole once again and watched him move over the body of his latest companion.

The young woman was a lithe strawberry blonde with surgically amplified breasts that barely moved as she lay on the bed with Adrian’s big body snuggled between her long thin legs. Tanned skin which would one day be leathery contrasted sharply with Adrian’s pale alabaster perfection.

As Adrian lowered his head to suckle her breasts, Eliza’s nipples tightened in response and her sex grew heavy and damp with need.

Bracing one hand on the wall, she tugged at the belt for her robe. The silk fabric fell open and even that subtle movement of smoothness against her body dragged a breathy sigh from her as she imagined it was Adrian’s skin along hers.

She reached up, stroking the hard nub of her nipple in time to Adrian’s movements. Mimicking his actions as he loved the woman wrapping her legs around him and urging him on with loud almost theatrical moans.

Sucking in a rough breath of her own, Eliza plucked at her nipples until the empty throb between her legs became nearly unbearable.

#ManCandyMonday – Rey Peralta from Amazon Awakening

Amazon Awakening is one of my more unusual stories and if you like time travel/alternate universe kinds of stories, this one may be for you. The hero in the story, Rey Peralta, is a Guardian, one of a unique group of humans who have been tasked with protecting a sacred space that exists in the Amazon. Some have even likened that sacred space to the Garden of Eden, but there’s just one problem. Whatever happens in our mortal plane can affect that sacred space and rogue loggers taking down the rainforest may soon destroy that Eden. That’s why it’s so important for Rey to convince the heroine, Paola Lopes, to return and embrace her legacy since the Lopes family is the most powerful of all the Guardian families. I’ve often toyed with the idea of doing a sequel where you meet Paola’s half-sister who resides in the sacred space. I’d love to hear from you if you’d like that!

Here is how I pictured Rey and I love this tattoo. Makes me think each Guardian should have one that tells what their animal spirit is!

Amazon Awakening is specially priced at 99 cents and is available at the following retailers:

#FreebieFriday – Rookie of the Year

I LOVE BASEBALL! Yes, I had to shout it because it’s so true. I love watching and I love playing! I was a catcher for my high school team and my daughter played Little League all the way until she was too old for the league. Some of my fondest memories are of watching her play and of attending baseball games with her. No wonder I decided to write a baseball series! Today I’m offering you a freebie for ROOKIE OF THE YEAR, the first book in the series. I hope to release A WINNING SEASON in the next few months. You can download your freebie at https://claims.prolificworks.com/free/j7l1p.

I’m also going to ask a little favor. If you read the book, please leave a review. It really does help authors when you do that. Thank you!
