Two weeks, two new releases

MistresssMaster72LGIt’s back to back fun around here!  Today, Mistress’s Master, Men in Blue 3, is out in PRINT for the first time.  You can pick up a copy at Amazon, B&N or Samhain among your other favorite hard copy book retailers.

Next up is Hammer it Home, Powertools Book 6, which comes out brand spanking new in ebook next Tuesday.  I hope you enjoy the “final” book in this series and an introduction to some related mechanic friends you’ll be seeing a lot more of in my upcoming related series, Hot Rods!

After these two, Love’s Compass (the print book containing Northern Exposure and Southern Comfort) will be out the first week of September.  Then both the print edition of Eastern Ambitions and the digital version of Where There’s Smoke will be out on 10/2.

HammerItHome72lgWhere There’s Smoke is my contribution to Two To Tango, an anthology featuring Lorelei James and Jess Dee along with myself.  A follow up to Three’s Company, Lorelei’s book features Jon Whitefeather from the original set of stories and Jess’s book is related as well.  Mine is all brand new (because I like to be different!).  Check back soon for more details.

Rounding out 2012 will be the print anthology of the first four Powertools books the first week of November and then Healing Touch, the sequel to Dream Machine, featuring Luke Malone, on December 4th.  Also in there, there will be a special edition print book from Ellora’s Cave available at Romanticon 2012 that will including my very first published book, Picture Perfect, in print for the first time!  It will be available sometime after for general purchase but I’m not sure of the date yet.  So much to look forward to but I’d better get back to work.  Just wait until you see what’s in store for 2013.  WHEW!

Happy Reading!

Compass & Powertools Featured in RT Magazine

Check out this article by RT Magazine.  They’ve listed Northern Exposure as one of their editors recommended reads for 10 Short and Steamy Stories.  Even better, they also selected Morgan’s Surprise, which they honored with the 2011 Best Indie Erotic Romance award at last year’s convention.  Only danger to this article… I found a bunch more books to add to my own reading list!

4 1/2 Stars from RT Magazine

NailedToTheWall72LGI’m thrilled to share this review from RT Magazine (4 1/2 stars, their highest score!) for Nailed to the Wall.  My favorite part about it is that it rates the book well because of the extension of the crew’s relationship to the crew ladies, not despite that bond.  Thank you so much to everyone who has supported this book that I couldn’t see any other way.  I hope Hammer it Home, the sixth and final Powertools book, does it justice.  Hammer it Home will be out in just a few short weeks and in it you’ll meet some sexy mechanics who will be featured in their own series, Hot Rods, along with cameos from your favorite construction workers 🙂

You can read the whole review on their site, where it’s featured inHammerItHome72lg the Everything Erotica section here but this is a great snippet:  “There is so much genuine emotion in this story it will bring tears to readers’ eyes. The closeness and caring that the characters show each other makes “Nailed to the Wall” an exceptional read.”

Nailed to the Wall – available now
Hammer it Home – coming 8/14

Oodles of Good News

There’s so much to share today, I’ll get right to it.
1.  I just found out that Picture Perfect is going to PRINT!!!!!!!!!  My very first published ebook will be paired up with JK Coi’s Brazen Games from Ellora’s Cave in a volume called Watching It All that will debut at Romanticon and then be available for sale sometime before the holidays everywhere else.  I’m so thrilled.  This means that every book I’ve published prior to the beginning of this year will be in print by the end of 2012 with the exception of Phoenix Incantation.  Seriously, the year of print for me.  I had six print books heading into this year and will end the year with 12.  WOOHOO  (So far this year Red Light has come out.  Love’s Compass, Eastern Ambitions, Powertools, Mistress’s Master and Watching it All will round out the rest of the year).
2.  I can officially tell you about some of my 2013 projects.  Today I am thrilled to announce the start of a new series with some familiar characters.  If Powertools was about construction workers, their mechanic cousins are… HOT RODS!  The six book series will kick off with three being released in 2013.  King Cobra, Mustang Sally and Super Nova will feature cameos from the powertools crew as well as lots of hot cars and hotter group action.  Here’s a brief description of the first book, King Cobra
The Hot Rods series will be a spinoff of Powertools. Each book is named with a car the main hero/heroine drives in a way that describes the character. King Cobra features garage owner, Eli, who is the cousin of the Joe from The Crew. He appeared in books five and six of Powertools with his head mechanic Alanso, where their eyes were opened to the possibilities of massive ménage and a love greater than ordinary through a lesson from friends.

Eli and his biological father suffered a terrible blow when their respective mother and wife died suddenly and unexpectedly of a brain aneurism during Eli’s formative years. Honoring her life’s mission as a social worker, Eli’s father welcomed several kids from the wrong side of the tracks into their family, their home and their hearts. Not all of them stuck permanently, but those who did became Eli’s adopted brothers…and one sister.

Bonds forged in the fires created by their personal demons are unbreakable. Or so Eli wants to believe. Their gang has stuck together through thick and thin—living, partying and working together. Still, he fears fucking everything up by taking the risk of a lifetime. The team of auto restoration hot rodders are too valuable to gamble a quick romp behind the stacks of tires on, no matter how obsessed he’s become with the prospect of deepening their relationships.

But when Alanso, his head mechanic, caves to the overpowering lure of the desire they’d witnessed together when visiting the crew, all bets are off. Eli catches his closest friend exploring their mutual fantasy on his own at a known hookup spot in a public park by accident when he’s out for a drive. Things quickly spiral out of control, requiring Eli to leap before looking and trust his instincts to guide him through the night.

Can he keep the Hot Rods from wrecking long enough to claim the reward he’s been dreaming of? Will his father understand his decision or will he disown his only blood son? Will any of it matter if Eli doesn’t follow his heart?

3. The fourth Men in Blue book, Spread Your wings is also slated for next year and features Jambrea, Matt and Clint 🙂  HOOORAY.
4.   Now it’s even easier to get my app.  I’ve posted QR codes on my site on the links page today that you can scan and be taken straight to the download page for either iOS devices or Android devices.  Stay up to date on news and pictures as well as latest releases and buy links through my app 🙂

Okay, there’s more to come, but I’m already exploding with happiness (despite the hole in my roof from last night’s crazy storms!).

Passionate Plume Finalist

Can't Buy LovePP7 FinalistToday was a great day.  I started it out with Mari Carr, her BFF Tess, Biana D’Arc, her dad and Book Obsessed Chick Kim Rocha on Long Island.  The Book Obsessed Chick BBQ yesterday was fantastic!  Then I was off to Rye, NY for my future sister in law’s bridal shower where I got to see my whole family.  Then I drove back to Philly for another week here for my day job.  Just one more week and I get to go home for a week before making (hopefully) the last trip out here.

Well, anyhoo, if that wasn’t all fun enough, I got word this morning that Can’t Buy Love is a finalist in the 7th annual Passionate Plume contest held by the online erotic chapter of Romance Writers of America.  I’m thrilled!  The Red Light series is my favorite series that I’ve written to date so if you haven’t had a chance yet, I hope you’ll give Star and Rick a shot.  Their story is unconventional but one I’m proud of and all four books are out separately in ebook or available bundled in the single print anthology, Red Light available now from Ellora’s Cave.

Here’s some more info about the book:

Book 3 in the Red Light Series featuring Star

What man would be crazy enough to date a whore?  Star is a sex worker in Amsterdam’s red light district.  After the intimate exchange between her and Rick, she’s hoped to take their adventure into affection farther.  Too bad he’s disappeared for weeks.

When he resurfaces, to deliver her portion of the paycheck they’d earned by starring in a live sex show together, the magnetism between them proves irresistible.  In the wake of undeniable passion, they’re left wondering if they can make a relationship work in unconventional circumstances.

They’re both convinced… you can buy sex, but you can’t buy love.  And nothing else will satisfy their hunger for each other.

Powertools #5 Release Day & Contest

Hola!  Today is the release day for Nailed to the Wall, Powertools Book #5.  Pay close attention because you’ll hear about some new characters that just might be getting a series of their own.  More to come on that later…  For today, I decided we should celebrate with a contest.  The Crew is helping to upgrade my kitchen and build me an office right now (they say writing in my bed or on my deck is not ergonomic, ha!).  So… it got me thinking… post a link to a picture of your “dream room” in the comment box below.  It doesn’t matter what kind of space–bedroom, kitchen, outdoor space, or whatever you like.  Whichever three the crew likes best will win each of you a Powertools t-shirt!

In the meantime, here’s a little bit more about today’s release:

NailedToTheWall72LGPowertools, Book Five

The crew is back and they’re dirtier than ever.

Five sexy men with a penchant for love and lust in any variation have formed a crew. They work hard and play harder—together. Though their partnership began in construction, renovating houses and selling them for a mint, they’ve formed a bond around their shared goal to provide women, and each other, with the ultimate sexual experience.

Over the past year, as each member discovered his soul mate—or two—they expanded the reach of their circle, lighting up their nights along with their souls. Monogamous relationships and the desire to start families threaten to put their libertine revelry on the back burner. Will the passion that bonded them fade away? How will the crew’s new wives cope with the complex relationship the men will always cherish and crave?

Determined to prove they stand by their men, the women decide it’s time to flex some muscle and give the crew a dose of girl power. They collude to take the guys as their horny hostages, using some big guns: boudoir photos, a pillow fight and a calculated foray into partner swapping. But will they have the guts to go through with their plans?

Warning: By Book Five in this series, fans will attest that anything goes in the crew. Be prepared for ménage in every flavor–m/f, f/f, m/f/m, f/m/f, m/m/f and more–along with a slew of that’s what he said jokes. No throwing tomatoes at the author, please!

Who likes free apps?

iPhoneLoadI know I do 🙂  So, good news.  I now have a free app that’s available for iPhone/iPad as well as Android devices.  Just look me up in the Apple store or the Droid marketplace (Google Play) to keep up to date on new releases, events I’ll be appearing at, photos from prior events, my facebook, twitter, blog feeds, book trailers, excerpts and whatever else I can figure out how to add 🙂

The app is still a work in progress so let me know if you have any suggestions or if something isn’t working right for you!

And of course, just wanted to remind everyone that tomorrow is the big day!  Powertools #5, Nailed to the Wall, releases tomorrow.  😀

Like 50 Shades? Hate it? Come share!

579307_10150811328692460_785247459_9666698_1090244623_nSo I admit it… I haven’t read 50 Shades yet.  Will I?  Maybe.  If I can find the time!  But my good friend Jambrea Jo Jones pointed out this super cool article from Naughty Edition Reviews.  In it, the author says they weren’t over the moon about the books and recommended some great erotic romance authors.  Most of them on the list are just about my all time favorites (hello Joey Hill!).  And they mentioned ME!  How cool is that?!  I did a little squee 🙂

This might be a good time to shout out about a fun project I’m involved in.  I was invited to talk a little more about the subject and BDSM books I’ve written by my friend, Eden Bradley.  I hope that you’ll join us for the huge discussion, complete with giveaways of course, on her amazing blog site (along with several other awesome authors like RG Alexander!) The Smutketeers.  The event will run all day Wednesday and Thursday.  I hope to see you there.

A great day for Powertools!

HammerItHome72lgTwo great things for Powertools today.  First, cover artist extraordinaire, Angela Waters, has done it again.  I LOVE the cover for book six, Hammer it Home.  How about you?

Plus, I just saw a fantastic review for Nailed to the Wall (Powertools book five) from Sizzling Hot Books.  I really enjoyed the five star review because the reviewer felt the story was original and even jumping in at book five in the series, she still enjoyed it.  To me, that makes me feel like a job well done.  I hope you agree when it releases in just thirteen short days!  I can’t wait.NailedToTheWall72LG Check out the full review here.
