So this morning I’m working on the print galley for Razor’s Edge (YEY!!!!). In the hunt for any reviews to highlight in the fore matter of the book I ran across a 4 1/2 wine glass review for Dream Machine on I Read Romance that might be my new favorite. I’m adding a quote and link to book page on my website but you can check out the full thing here!
In the meantime, here’s a snippet of my favorite parts, “Oh, my stars and stripes. This story is a conflagration. I was hooked from the very first page, which didn’t start with the love interests, but a conversation between two men who’ve known each other for a long time. They’re discussing the experiment that is the basis for everything that happens in this story. And, boy, is it a doozy.
When you read a lot of romance novels, like I do, you tend to become blasé about the sexual encounters of characters. Oooh, he’s dominant, she’s a natural submissive. So what? He’s hung like a moose and she’s practically a virgin. Big deal! But the way Ms. Rylon approaches every encounter, with the freshness and vividness of first-time occurrences – for both characters – grabs the reader’s attention and holds it firmly in her grasp. I’m still trying to calm my pulse from the last two or three intimate scenes (heck, all of them). Then you add the natural reluctance of characters to share their feelings for fear of rejection, and you have a rich bouquet of emotions and dialog that enhance the overall experience.”

Southern Comfort by Mari Carr and Jayne Rylon
Caught between desire and a promise…
Compass Brothers, Book 2
Seth Compton knew from the first that his boss’s daughter was all wrong for him. She was too feisty, too damned independent and, at seven years his junior, too damned young. When she comes home with a college diploma and fiancé on her arm, though, he can’t quite remember all the reasons he held her at arm’s length.
It’s not just his jeans-tightening reaction to her all-grown-up curves. Something doesn’t feel right about her impending marriage, and he won’t rest until he’s stopped her from making the biggest mistake of her life.
The morning after her wild bachelorette party, Jody expected a hangover. The surprise? Waking up tied to a bed with sexy-as-sin Seth. He’s got some wild idea about proving they belong together, but she’s not buying it. Besides, she has a promise to keep that’s too close to her heart to risk, especially not with a man who, until now, made his disinterest plain.
No one ever said Seth backed down from a challenge. She’s going to make him work for it? No problem. Luckily for him, he has plenty of rope…
Product Warnings
This story contains a bondage lovin’ cowboy who kidnaps and hogties a cowgirl to his bed and does all sorts of naughty things to her. Fun, right?

I’m thrilled to share my latest print anthology available now from B&N here! I loooove the cover! It popped up on B&N today so it will likely appear at Amazon and Ellora’s Cave soon. For now, you can buy from B&N like I did–don’t laugh!–or check out the awesome cover of Cougarlicious, which features my second Cougar Challenge book, Shifting Gears (sequel to Driven), along with fantastic stories by Cerise Deland and Amber Skyze.
Contains Shifting Gears, sequel to Driven (part of the Needing A Cougar print anthology)
Mark envies his friend Bastian and the Cougar who tamed him. For years he’s had his eye on a sexy, older, married woman. Despite his and Bastian’s sharing women, he refuses to poach outside his steamy fantasies.
Sloan travels with the race car drivers as the league’s publicist. Living abroad can be lonely, especially when touring somewhere like China—where beautiful landscapes surround them but language and cultural barriers are high. Until she meets Lynn, who shares her love of erotic romances. In Lynn, she gains more than a friend—because sexy-as-sin navigator Mark is never far from the Cougar and her fiancé, making Sloan wonder if it’s time rejoin the dating scene after a nasty divorce.
When Lynn notices the chemistry between Mark and Sloan, she issues the Cougar Challenge. Sloan expected fantastic sex. But she never imagined her relationship with Mark would empower him to explore the sexual tension building between him and Bastian…
Four friends, two couples…one night none of them will forget.
Reader Advisory: If you didn’t guess from that last line, this story contains a sizzling f/m/m/f ménage.
This Cougar Challenge anthology also includes:
Hat Trick by Cerise Deland
Fit, fab and forty-five, Belle Sterling chomps at the bit to accept the Cougar Challenge. But finding a younger man in her one-horse Texas town is one giant problem—until two scrumptious men stroll into her office.
Gage Wagner and Trey Sandoval have been best buddies since college and know how to share…everything. When they meet luscious Belle, they know she needs the good lovin’ two men can provide…together.
Belle’s a regular gal and putting two men in her saddle seems like a dream. Then she tries it. More than once.
Gettin’ Lucky by Amber Skyze
Marcy Brown can’t get enough of Lucky, her massage therapist. Lucky’s fingers always linger dangerously close to…sensitive areas, and ignite a fire she can’t ignore. Marcy isn’t looking for a relationship, but a friend with benefits would be right up her alley. The women of her fave blog, Tempt the Cougar, swear by younger men, but Marcy doesn’t want to train someone. She wants a man who can give her orgasm after orgasm.
Lucky offers to be her secret lover and help her realize all her fantasies. With Lucky, Marcy discovers the thrill of sexual positions and taboos she’s been missing out on—up to and including sex with two gorgeous men at once.
All bets are off when this Cougar is challenged to get her growl on.
Happy Reading!
