Bad Vibrations

Due to circumstances beyond my control, I've had to change the title of Good Vibrations to Naughty Vibrations. For those of you who have already purchased the book, the cover and title are the only things that have changed, the story is still exactly the same. For those who are looking for the book, it will be available from the various book seller sites this week under the new title. Those of you who have copies of Good Vibrations now own a limited edition.
My sincere thanks to all those who emailed the company Good Vibrations in an attempt to get them to understand your displeasure over their ridiculous claims against my book. Unfortunately the company just would not acknowledge the fact that titles are not trademarked or copyrightable and if that were so the original creators of Good Vibrations who made it so popular, the Beach Boys, could come after their company for its name. While my attorney is certain we would have won in court, I had no desire for my book to not be available during a legal battle.

Fatal Submission - Available Today

Available today from Ellora's Cave Publishing - Fatal Submission - companion story to Rise of the Dom written by Brenna Zinn. (Release date for Rise of the Dom TBA) These stories are not just smokin' hot but they are scary and smokin' hot, what a lethal combination!

My thanks to Brenna Zinn and Eve Savage for coming up with this great idea for the Dungeon Master stories then dragging me (not quite kicking and screaming) in for the torture…er, challenge. My love for horror stories and all things that go bump in the night gave me the crazy idea that writing erotic horror should come naturally. Boy was I ever wrong. But (yes there’s always one of those) I am glad I took a risk because I love how this story turned out. Thanks for all the input and encouragement, ladies. You’re the best!

To my readers: I hope you enjoy this wicked trip to the very dark side of erotic romance. While Fatal Submission does have some rather frightening elements above all it is a romance with a sexy dominant hero and a HEA.

Blurb:
Claire Hanson is a submissive in need of a Dom. Finding one in rural Illinois in 1981 is no easy feat but her requirements are simple. Forget complicated limit lists, take charge and give her lots of hot, sweaty sex. On edge, body humming with arousal, Claire aches to have her desires sated. And ruggedly handsome Dominant Mason Burke is the man she wants. But for Mason work comes first and Claire’s tired of waiting.

Mason’s loss is Dr. Carl Skinner’s lucky break. The bonus—Carl’s a rich, drop-dead gorgeous Dom with a real dungeon in his basement. Getting what you want isn’t always a good thing and the game takes a drastic turn Claire never saw coming. According to the Dungeon Master’s victims who still haunt his torture chamber, submission has fatal consequences and she’s running out of time.

Note: This scary tale contains graphic scenes of erotic torture and violence that may cause the reader to stay up late reading with all the lights on.

Sun-dried Tomato and Mozzarella Bread

I bought a Cuisinart bread machine last week and just made this recipe from the little booklet that came with it. Had to share because its very yummy. This is for a 2lb loaf.

Ingredients
1 cup water, room temperature
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar
3 3/4 cups bread flour
1 1/4 teaspoons Italian seasoning
2 1/4 teaspoons yeast, active dry, instant or bread machine

Mix-ins:
1 cup shredded mozzarella
1/3 cup oil packed sundried tomatoes, drained & roughly chopped

Instructions Place water, salt, sugar, flour, Italian seasoning and yeast, in the order listed, in the bread pan fitted with the kneading paddle. Secure the bread pan in the Cuisinart® Automatic Breadmaker. Press the menu button to select the Basic/White program. Press loaf size and crust color buttons to select both size and crust preference. Press Start/Stop to mix, knead, rise, and bake. When the mix-in tone sounds, add the mozzarella and tomatoes.

Good Vibrations

Currently, my self-published book, Good Vibrations, part of the Toys-4-Us series, has been taken down from Amazon. Why? Long story short, a company has an issue with the book title.

Good Vibrations is still currently available through a variety of other book sellers including:


I will keep you updated as to what happens. Worst case scenario is I'll have to put a new title on the book but don't worry, Jack and Sara's story will live on!

Make Mine A Double - Recommended Read!

Make Mine A Double turned Crystal from Romancing The Book into a menage reader. WOOHOO! My work here is done. :D

"Menage’s aren’t usually my thing. I’m glad that I read this one. You get to see how three people can make a relationship work. It takes a lot for just two people. Could you just imagine adding another one into the mix. You get to see everyone’s personality.
You have a woman that is used to taking care of herself and her bills. Max is used to taking care of everything and he wants to take care of Kaylie. Brayden is usually the peace maker. I think the author did a wonderful job with the storyline. I really enjoyed all the characters and and learning about them more throughout the story.
I will now read more menage’s because I’ve got the chance to understand them better. I can see the possibilities and love that can happen between everyone involved."

Olivia is sharp, she’s smart, she’s sassy and she challenges him both in and out of the bedroom, where the sex is hot and plentiful. Just one problem.

Tempestuous - Now In Print

Tempestuous is now available in print from Amazon.com 

Blurb:
Once a woman’s deepest, darkest desires have been exposed—whetting her appetite for taboo pleasures of the flesh—her unquenchable hungers will not be denied.

Floggers and whips
Chains and leather restraints
Erotic rewards and punishments…oh my!

Seduced by erotic stories and the forbidden lure of Dominance and submission, Evie Sloan longs to explore the scintillating delights firsthand. While some fantasies are better left to the imagination, for the chance to visit a real BDSM club, she’s willing to take a risk.

Been there, done that, seen it all—or so jaded Dominant Niko Kovalenko thought. Evie’s arrival on the scene reawakens long dormant passions and ramps them up to a whole new level. She’s an exciting challenge—a dangerous temptation—igniting the compulsion to posses. To collar.

Evie is no man’s submissive pet. Niko stripped her bare, shed light on all her secret desires and weaknesses, but it’s still not enough for him. To win her man she’ll have to confront her fears and find a way to bridge the distance between them.
