New Release: Twist anthology!

I am so excited to be able to reveal this cover for the next Erotic Collective anthology released today! This anthology is called ‘Twist’ and is full of stories that are hot, sexy, and each have a surprise twist that make each story even better! My story for the anthology is called ‘Of Fog and Fire’ and is a much more surreal style of writing than I’ve written before because the main character has all kinds of fantasies and dreams in her head!

Below you’ll see the cover and then an excerpt from my story! This scene is when Bryant gives Phee a call after they exchanged numbers when they met.

“The challenge where I asked you to dinner, and you pointedly didn’t give me an answer.” Bryant had a growling, playful edge to his voice that sent a warm shiver through her.

“Ah, that challenge. I guess I haven’t answered you, have I?” Phee laughed to herself when she heard him groan over the line.

“No, you haven’t. Which only makes you more interesting.”

“How’s that?”

“Let’s just say, I’ve never had to plead with someone to go on a date with me before.” Bryant’s voice was getting lower and it made her stomach do funny things. He was hot. That was an undeniable fact. Seeing him for a just a moment had made her imagine him naked, walking out of the ocean, glistening and wet. She wasn’t immune to his looks, or his playful charm, but she had been serious. She wasn’t giving an inch in this battle; he was going to have to work for it. Incredible eyes or not.

“You don’t sound like you’re pleading, Bryant.” Phee grinned and Bryant burst into laughter on the other end of the phone.

“Oh, Phee, I don’t plead with anyone, but I’d definitely like to hear what you sound like when you beg.” Bryant’s words had shifted the conversation hard, and Phee’s vision of the ocean and the earth clashing together changed until it was Bryant on top of her. Her back in the wet sand, his hands pinning hers as he kissed her and claimed victory when he thrust inside her.

Heat rushed up her chest that had nothing to do with the second glass of bourbon she was halfway through.

“Phee?” Bryant’s voice was a purr that snapped her out of her fantasy.

“Are you accustomed to women begging you, Bryant?” Phee had meant for her voice to come out strong and steady, but instead it was breathy. Her heart rate needed to slow down, and the tingling feelings in her lower belly needed to chill out.

“Yes.”

Phee’s mouth dropped open and she had the urge to pull the phone away from her head to stare at it incredulously as if the act would someone translate across the line to him. Talk about arrogant, privileged, power hungry, cocky –

“However, I really want to take you to dinner…” Bryant’s heavy sigh filled the phone, “So, Phee, would you please go to dinner with me? I promise to make it worth your time?”

“Did you just say please, Bryant?” Phee felt like the ground had solidified under her feet a little. Bryant was a dangerous whirlpool, and if she got too close she was going to fall in.

“I did. I am actually very polite when I’m not taken by surprise by waitresses butting into my conversations to tell me who I should date.”

“Are you looking for an apology?”

“Not at all, I’m looking to say thank you with dinner. But you seem to be running scared from the idea.” Bryant’s voice was a playful rumble again and Phee couldn’t stop grinning.

“I never said no.”

“You haven’t said yes, either.” She heard him moving around wherever he was and she wanted to know what he was doing. She doubted he was sitting on a threadbare couch, holding a glass of everyday bourbon, while wearing shorts and an old school uniform shirt. Phee took another sip and crossed her legs on the sofa, dragging it out. This little power struggle was fun, and in her mind she was straddling him on the beach, his hands on her hips – and it was glorious.

“Then I’ll say it.” Phee paused again just to make him wait, and then she continued, finally answering him slowly, “Yessss.” Bryant laughed, and she did too. He wasn’t what she had expected when she’d seen him so serious at the table. How was someone from downtown so easygoing, so playful? Even with the comments about wanting to hear her beg, which had only turned her on, he seemed so relaxed.

“This is going to be fun.”

Cover Reveal: The Rite!

I try and wait a bit to release the stories from my anthology submissions, and I ended up waiting even longer for my story ‘The Rite’ because I was so busy trying to get Thalia’s series out. Now that it’s out, I’ve finished the little “extra” I’m including in the individual release (come back for WIP Wednesday to see a sneak peek of that!), and I also have a cover to show you! Anyone who read ‘The Rite’ in the ‘Darker Side of Love’ anthology will totally get the cover. If it makes no sense, well, maybe you should read it. ;p

Without further ado, prepare for hotness!

Cover Reveal: The Thalia trilogy is coming!

This is so incredibly exciting. Thalia’s story was the first thing I had the nerve to post on Literotica and it led me to so many amazing things. I met all of the wonderful authors in The Erotic Collective who I have now been fortunate enough to participate in two anthologies with (and a 3rd coming in May, more on THAT to come), and they’re also now some of my favorite people in the world. Honestly, without all of the kind comments and encouraging reactions of the fans on Lit, I know I would have given up and never be publishing on Amazon! So, even though the anthology stories came out first, this story is my baby. It is the erotica that helped me to break through my nerves and my fears and finally just go for it.

So, as much as Thalia means to so many people, she means just as much to me.

For those of you that followed Thalia’s story on Lit, Striking a Balance was so much longer than Security Binds Her that it was split into two books. This means that Thalia’s story is now a trilogy: Security Binds Her, Striking a Balance, and Salvaged by Love. I really hope you’ll all grab a copy and leave me a review for them so that others can discover Thalia too!

Now, without further ado, here are the covers!

Cover Reveal: The Darker Side of Love

Cover

YAY! This is so exciting, my lovelies! When I tell you this anthology is deliciously dark, I mean it. I’ve had the pleasure of reading almost all of these stories from these amazing authors, and I cannot believe how phenomenal they are, and how dark they are. Those of us who like our erotica a little intense, devious, and perhaps even… forceful? – this is the perfect anthology for you. I promise.

Stay tuned to the blog for the announcement of when this is available, which should be very soon!

Check out the description that our illustrious leader, Tara, wrote up!

SEVEN Brand New Scorching Hot Standalone Stories! No Cliff-hangers! Over 700 pages of incredibly hot, dark erotica!

Addiction. Corruption. Pain. Betrayal. Loss. Revenge. Murder. These are not your mother’s love stories.

Join in and indulge in your secret dark side in this boxed set collection of seven stories.

The Watcher by Tara Crescent – Wanting to escape the burdens of her life, Kelly Mitchell attends the sex club her friend Miles St. Clair belongs to. But as the allure of the BDSM club grows, can Kelly withstand the temptation to sink deeper into its clutches?

The Rite by Jennifer Bene – Heather isn’t a witch – yet. She’s a woman with a complicated love life and a complicated family who are pushing her to complete the rite that the family has guarded for generations. A rite that will give her unimaginable power at the cost of someone else’s life. All she has to do is choose someone, take them to bed, and curse them to die.

As Flame to Smoke by Eris Adderly – A single priest’s vow of chastity is all that stands between Serah and the dark promise of immortality. Father Kent doesn’t stand a chance.

Something in Her Eyes by Justine Hollander – It was one night of pain and pleasure so many years ago, but it’s haunted both Ben and Margaret ever since. Years pass, and when their paths cross once more, memories of that night ignite fantasies and passions that threaten to lead to obsession – or heartbreak.

Wide Open by Alice Schermer – A girl finds a murder scene, a murder victim and a murderer. All three of them start haunting her dreams. One of them teaches her things she’d never dreamed of.

What If…? by Christine Hart – What if the life you thought you had, didn’t exist?
