TEMPTED BY TWO and a giveaway!

Here's my latest self published title TEMPTED BY TWO, a steamy hot menage erotic romance set a sleepy, old world English village. On holiday, heroine Katie meets Marcus Dane, a handsome artist who she's admired for a long time, and quickly becomes involved in an intense three way affair with him, and with his equally gorgeous lover, Owen. 

This is a brand new, never before published novella and it's been huge fun to write. I had such a great time writing my first menage novella, POWER OF THREE, and I was keen to do another threesome story. I also wanted to write something set in the sort of  traditional village setting that I love from watching my favourite Miss Marple stories on the telly. It's a nod to the  famous and very clever detecting old lady that the village Katie visits is called Little Marplethorpe... I also indulged myself hugely with the 'hero templates' I used. My two big crushes at the moment are Benedict Cumberbatch as Sherlock, and Simon Baker as The Mentalist, Patrick Jane, so these two yummy actors 'play' Marcus Dane and Owen Foster respectively.

Anyway here's the official blurb:

When executive woman Katie Warren arrives in the picturesque village of Little Marplethorpe for a country holiday, to reassess her life and her future, she doesn't bargain on ending up in a hot three way love affair with a man she's admired from afar... and his gorgeously handsome male partner.

Marcus Dane and Owen Foster are lovers, committed for a lifetime, but they both enjoy the company of women as friends and bedmates too. Encountering Katie at an exhibition of his work, Marcus knows she's just the kind of bold, daring, imaginative woman who'll relish sharing erotic games with Owen and himself.

But what none of the trio expect is that their intense, steamy threesome will quickly deepen into a bond that's a lot more than just simply fabulous sex.

TEMPTED BY TWO is a fairly chunky novella of 33,600 words, and if you haven't yet tried POWER OF THREE, you'll find a 600 word taster of that included too. 

There's a hot excerpt of TEMPTED BY TWO here, and you can buy it from All Romance eBooks, Smashwords, Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk with more outlets to follow.

Finally, to celebrate the publication of TEMPTED BY TWO, I'm offering a free copy of the book to each of three randomly chosen commenters on this post. I'll draw the three lucky names a week from today on Sunday, 3rd June at 12 noon GMT.

A change of cover...

I've made a new cover for my erotic BDSM short, NAUGHTY THOUGHTS. I very much liked my old cover for this title, but after listening to the thoughts and advice of a bunch of smart self publishers, all of whom are far bigger sellers than I am, I realized I ought to try something a bit more eye-catching...

So, what do you think? I think it's fun and saucy and does suggest the 'naughty thoughts' that the heroine Vickie has, the BDSM fantasies she indulges in when she's making love with her man, Terrence. Luckily for her, Terrence is a perceptive fellow... and a dominant... so pretty soon he's making her dreams into reality.

You can buy Naughty Thoughts from Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk and there's a sexy sample here.

Naughty Thoughts is part of my Delicious Masters series.

Delicious Masters ~ when women meet the Doms of their dreams ~

Here's the previous cover for comparison. More dreamy and mysterious, I think.

NB. If you've bought my anthology DARING INTERLUDES, please don't buy NAUGHTY THOUGHTS, as it's included in that collection.

What's new with me...

First of all, many apologies for the very sporadic blogging. I'm getting more and more hopeless at keeping up with my blog in my old age...

So, what's been happening?

My main news is that I'm writing again for my most long standing and best loved publisher, Black Lace. Perhaps in the light of recent publishing developments [50 Shades, what else?] this iconic line of erotica for women and erotic romance is relaunching in September, and as well as writing something new for the line, I have a couple, thus far, of Black Lace Classic reprints scheduled. THE STRANGER will be out this September and THE DEVIL INSIDE, next September [the latter was going to be out in Jan '13, but that's been changed]. Black Lace will have a new cover 'look', which I know is going to be utterly fabulous and the cover image guy for THE STRANGER is absolutely scrumptious. Not quite as gorgeous as the wonderful Paul McGann, on whom my Paul was modelled, but definitely easy on the eye. I'll be revealing covers as soon as I receive the final versions. In the meantime here's a lovely piccie of *my* Paul... ;)

Yum! And he even wears the outfit too.

There's also another very exciting Black Lace 'thing' that I'm waiting for a few more details of before I start plugging it. Won't be too long though... definitely by August.

But it's not just reprints. I'm working on a new title, even as we speak. This one's called THE ACCIDENTAL CALL GIRL, and in it, as you might gather from the title, the heroine Lizzie Aitchison gets mistaken for an escort in the bar of a posh hotel, and decides to play a long with the misconception because the 'punter', one John Smith [yes, really] is an absolute dish. Initially only intending to play 'the game' for one delicious interlude, Lizzie, masquerading as 'Bettie', finds herself mesmerised by the handsome and dominant Mr Smith, and as he only seems to want a temporary companion, she continues with her masquerade as a high class hooker. For just the one very special and extremely kinky client.

Needless to say, I'm having enormous fun with this one, and have already written about 20K words so far.

I've also recently been working on an erotic romance novella called TEMPTED BY TWO. This one's a ménage a trois story, about Katie, who's taking a country holiday in order to reassess her life, and who becomes involved with famous and charismatic artist Marcus Dane, and his handsome manager, muse and lover, Owen. I'm hoping this story might be available in a couple of weeks or so.

There's a load of other stuff going on, but lastly, here are two important snippets of news for right now!

If you fancy a rather dotty but fun erotic horror story, free, gratis and for nothing, you can download WESLEY AND THE SEX ZOMBIES from a variety of outlets. There's a taster of it here, along with the links. For the moment, while Wesley is free at Amazon.com,  I'm still waiting for it to go free at Amazon.co.uk, but I'm hoping that'll happen soon, and I'll post here, and tweet and Facebook it when it does!

Finally, if you're looking for some BDSM romance reading after you've finished the infamous Fifty Shades, my buddy Lucy Felthouse has assembled a hot half dozen titles, by various authors, that you might like to try.  Check it out here:

Naughty Thoughts is also part of my Daring Interludes anthology, but I thought I would pull it out and offer it separately for those who love a short 'n' saucy spanking treat. I've gathered this and my other BDSM stories together as a sort of semi series, called Delicious Masters.


~ Delicious Masters - when women meet the Doms of their dreams ~

Vickie and Terrence both have sexual secrets, and neither one quite knows what's going on in the other's head when they're making love. But one day, Vickie reveals her "Naughty Thoughts", her dark and dangerous fantasies about being punished and dominated... and discovers a brand new, thrilling side to Terrence, and a powerful man who likes to play spanking games. The Dom of Vickie's dreams is the familiar lover who's already in her bed.
