Special thanks to supermodel Robert Reider and photographer Luciana Varga for the great cover photo! EXCERPT Melissa Vetti’s lips were softer than the down blankets on her bed and they were equally as warm. We lingered in the kiss longer than we should’ve. Longer than ever before, not moving, not tonguing each other, not seeking more with wandering hands trying to pick at the buttons on our jeans. Just connected. “I love you,” I whispered into her mouth. “I know,” she giggled into mine. She always said that when I pushed, but at least this time it didn’t come with a litany of excuses. We’re too young. You’re leaving in three months. We have our whole lives to fall in love. It was too late for me though, because I’d been in love with her since the sixth grade when we ditched the chaperones on the class camping trip in… Read more »

$50 GIVEAWAY and EXCERPT – Cover Reveal Anarchy Found by JA Huss
COVER REVEAL VIDEO: This is a hand drawn cover by Ambro Jordi – watch him draw the main image in time-lapse: “Please,” he says. The word is so soft. So filled with longing, and regret, and emotion. It reminds me of that friend of his while we were dancing. His plea makes me want to obey. Against my will, I try to convince myself. But it’s a lie. There is something here… like it’s on the tip of my tongue. Like my brain has been keeping secrets and they’re about to explode out of me. So I reach down, grab a fistful of silk tulle and I give him what he needs. Permission. His mouth is suddenly hungry and crushing. His tongue dancing inside me. One hand leaves my face and goes to his belt and I hike my skirts up even more, exposing the bare skin of my… Read more »
$10 GIVEAWAY: James and Harper’s HEA Update
BE SURE TO ENTER yesterday’s After The HEA Giveaway about Spencer & Veronica! WANT TO VIEW the James & Harper Pinterest Board? CLICK HERE. James came onto the scene immediately after Spencer’s Guns book released. The first Dirty, Dark, and Deadly story, COME, was written especially for The BEND Anthology which I participated in with the other members of The Erotica Consortium on Facebook. Each story in the book was original and steamy, and we were so excited to release this. We had a ton of pre-orders and we were crossing our fingers that we’d make NYT with this book. And then Amazon BANNED us. Apparently they couldn’t handle the hotness. 😉 God, I laugh now, but we were so bummed! However, it all worked out in the end. We sold a lot of books – about 20,000 if I remember correctly, and even though the book was only officially… Read more »
FRIDAY NIGHT FREEBIE: THREE Signed Books from Alessandra Torre
I love Alessandra Torre! We’re good friends and my two favorite books by her are Black Lies and The Girl in 6 E. If you like my books I can almost guarantee you will like Alessandra too. She writes intricate, twisted plots and super-hot sex scenes. So when I saw her at the RT convention last May in Dallas, I picked up three books to give away on the FNF. Well, this leads me to why I posted a pic of my bird below. You see, he must love Alessandra just as much as me, because he tried to read one of the books. So if you win—DISCLAIMER—my bird bit the cover of Blindfolded Innocence. It’s a small bite mark, you can see it to the right of his foot. He’s not that big, but he’s a huge troublemaker and I accidentally left him alone in my bedroom while I… Read more »
$50 GIVEAWAY NEW RELEASE: Meet Me In The Dark (A Dark Suspense) by JA Huss
It’s finally here! The Merc Book! This is a standalone book, so if you are into the “dark” reads and have not read any other book by me, you can jump right in. I have two exclusive excerpts for you. One is here and one is on my author page. EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT “I’m waiting, bobcat,” he says. I cringe at the name. It’s so degrading. But I’m running on instincts now. The training has taken over and I’m powerless to stop it, even if I wanted to. And I don’t. So, “More, please,” is my response. “More what?” “Take it all, Case. You told me eight years ago you owned me. So take it. Take me. Take me the way you promised when you left me behind to die.” His hands are under my shoulders, urging me to sit up. I comply. Because that’s my job here tonight. And then… Read more »
$15 GIVEAWAY and SNEAK PEAK COVER REVEAL: Meet Me In The Dark by JA Huss
EXCLUSIVE EXCERPT I study his back as he flips some more pancakes. He’s hot. I didn’t want to tell him that the last time I thought about it. But there’s no denying. Merric Case gets what he wants because a) he doesn’t take no for an answer, b) he’s got the skills to back up his “requests”, and c) he’s handsome. He fills his plate, walks around the counter, and takes the barstool next to me. “Eat,” he says, pointing to my plate with a fork. A second later he’s stuffing his face. I take a bite, then a few more before gulping some juice and coming up for air. “Mmmm. It’s good.” “I know,” he says smugly. “I have two talents, Sydney Channing. Killing and cooking.” I nod and stare at my food. Right. “So do you want me to take you to the truck?” I take a bite… Read more »
