A Million Kisses update

Last night A Million Kisses or More got sent off to the Beta readers, with a tentative publishing date of June 1st. It could be sooner if the beta readers love it or it could be later if the response is, “WTF? Seriously? What the heck is wrong with you?” Now that A Million Kisses is in the hands of my Beta readers, it is time to work on the blurb, which is exceedingly difficult, but that is always the case.The story is a contemporary romance/ romantic comedy (with some drama) and it’s sweet and fluffy and the perfect book to read after a dark erotica book has effed up your head and heart or an angsty book has made you cry ugly tears. The heat level is probably a 2 or 2 1/2 out of 5 levels – more along the lines of Blind Attraction rather than Winter’s Heart (Winter makes an appearance in A Million Kisses!)

So far, there are A Million Kisses bookmarks, stickers, water bottles, and coffee mugs. The models are so perfect for Ana and Harrison and I owe a HUGE debt of gratitude to CJGwin photography for finding them – be sure to check out her facebook page and give her some love: https://www.facebook.com/Gwinsphotos and he website: http://www.gwinsphotos.com/

Here are some teasers to give you a little taste:

Two covers!

As promised, here are the covers for the two books that I am currently working on, Stone Seduction and A Million Kisses or More, with the added bonus of a little tease from each one. There may be a few tweaks to the covers between now and publishing but that is still a while away, since each book is only half complete. Enjoy!!

STONE SEDUCTION is the story of Remus, twin brother of Roman from Stone Solitude, and Joss, a woman who is desperate for a gargoyle’s protection, desperate for Remus.

[Remus’s] arms came around her waist as he held her closer, as he put his lips against her ear. “You’ll have to hold me close until everyone leaves. My robe seems to have fluttered off the building.”

Biting her lips to keep from laughing, [Joss] managed to choke out an apology, “Sorry.”

“Apology accepted,” he said with a sexy grin.

Looking over her shoulder, she caught the knowing smiles on the other gargoyles’ faces. Reddening, she said, “We seem to be having a slight wardrobe malfunction. Is there a spare robe lying around?”

“It won’t matter if you find another robe, Joss,” Remus growled in her ear, just loud enough for her to hear. “I plan on having you naked and on your back in three minutes flat.”

“There are children present,” she hissed, unable to keep from smiling.

“My brothers are old enough to understand the basics,” he grinned. “And if not, this might prove educational.”

“While your brothers are most likely well-versed in the art of seduction,” she grinned. “Your very young niece and nephew are not.”

His eyes widened as he pulled his head back and stared down at her. “Little Miss Georgia and Little Master James left about two minutes ago with the rest of their mothers. And there goes the rest.”

“How do you do that?” she asked softly, brushing her thumb over his full lower lip. “Know exactly what’s going on around you when all of your attention is on me?”

“It’s my job,” he said simply.

“Then it’ll be my job to see if I can ever distract you to the point that you are unaware of anything that’s not me,” she said.

“That’s never going to happen,” he vowed with a haughty smile.

“Just like you’ll never give up your nights?” she asked, arching a single eyebrow. At his nod, she grinned, “Well, I look forward to the day I prove you wrong on both counts.”

“Don’t hold your breath,” he grinned. Draping his arm around her shoulders, unconcerned about his nudity now that they were alone on the roof, he pulled her against his side. “Now, get that sweet ass of yours downstairs because you have ninety seconds left before I fuck you.”

And then there is A MILLION KISSES OR MORE, a romance to read after a dark book mind fucks you into darkness. It’s a story about two souls, Ana & Harrison, who are simply meant to be together with plenty of heat and sweet.

(Harrison) needed to see her, speak to her, alone. Standing up, ignoring the catcalls coming from Liverpool and Jones, he grabbed his handcuffs from his belt and crossed the distance between them. “Ana.”

Startled, she jumped as she turned around. She gifted him with her heart-stopping smile as she untied her apron. “Harrison. Did you run out of soda because if you did, I can’t help you. I just clocked off.”

“I came over to arrest you.”

Her lips parted and her eyebrows shot up to her hair line as she swallowed. “Pardon?”

Taking the apron from her, he set it down before he took her hand. He gently put the metal cuff on her wrist all the while holding her eyes. Her breath hitched as she automatically raised her other hand and softly asked, “Why are you arresting me?”

“You’re causing a disturbance to the peace,” he said, his voice coming out low and gravelly as he snapped on the other cuff. Her pupils were swallowing the green of her eyes as her chest heaved with each panted breath she took. He wanted to devour her whole. “More specifically, you’re causing a disturbance to my peace.”

“If you keep looking at me like that, your coworkers will think there’s something between us.”

“Sweetheart, I think they figured that out the moment we walked in and I couldn’t keep my eyes off you,” he told her, reaching up and brushing a strand of hair from her face.

Free Short Story!!

I wrote a short story almost exactly 7 years ago (June 2007) and while I was going through my laptop I stumbled upon it. After some minor clean up, I have decided to publish it on Smashwords and make it free for all who want it. I chose Smashwords because it makes the book available to all ereader platforms and allows me to make it free. So if you are a fan or just a curious reader who wants to have a taste of my works, head on over and pick up a copy of Loving Chance. ❤ It’s short but still filled with plenty of heat and here’s the blurb:

Hello. My name is Livie… Olivia and I am addicted to Chance. It started out innocently enough in elementary school but through the years the addiction has sabotaged all of my hopes for a healthy relationship with someone who loves me the way I love Chance. He is my drug of choice and I know it’s time to quit cold turkey.

But I want just one more hit, even if it breaks my heart

*LOVING CHANCE is a 12,000 word short story with plenty of heat to make you want more of Chance and Olivia.
