Wowsah!

Apparently this is the result of a BookBub promotion, funded by my publisher. I had no idea it was occurring, although I figured out they'd put IN TOO DEEP out at a special price for a while.

So, many thanks to all the readers who've snapped up my naughty librarian and professor fantasy! I do hope you enjoy it and perhaps decide to try more of my writing when you've read IN TOO DEEP.

If you're in America and you haven't yet sampled IN TOO DEEP, here's the Bookbub link to the special prices. :)

Happy Reading!

Looking for my books at Amazon?

It's come to my attention that it's not always possible to find all my books at Amazon.com and Amazon.co.uk and other Amazon sites... even though the books are available to purchase there!

The problem occurs when someone tries to search for my titles via the Home page, using the 'All' tab in the search box. Using that method brings a nice list of Portia titles... but no Spice Briefs!!!! And some of my titles from Black Lace, Total-e-Bound don't show up either. :(

However, if you search for my titles with 'Books' selected in the search box tab, or you search from the Books page, it's a different story, and lo and behold there are my Spice Briefs titles and more of my Black Lace novels  etc too.

YES!

And if it's specifically ebooks that are your choice, try the 'Kindle' tab, or search from the Kindle page, and a full range of my digital titles springs into view.

A freebie for the New Year!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Back to "to be paid for" status now, alas...

To celebrate the New Year, I'm offering AN APPOINTMENT WITH HER MASTER, a brand new to digital short story, FREE for two days via Amazon.

So follow the links below between 12:00 am Pacific Standard Time, 1st January and 11:59 pm Pacific Standard Time, 2nd January to snag this edgy story of a young woman's initiation into the darkly delicious world of erotic domination and punishment.

Here's the blurb:

Shy, but secretly sexy and imaginative, Mary-Anne Green fantasizes about having her bottom spanked by a stern and powerful master, the beautiful, cultured hero of her wildest dreams. She longs to feel the hand of a dominant man upon her, punishing her flesh, then caressing it to the heights of exquisite pleasure.

It seems that these wild scenarios are destined to remain solely in her imagination, until one day Mary-Anne meets her dream master online. Their chemistry is electric from the very first moment, and their fantasies and desires a perfect, sizzling match. In email after email they share everything. Dark urges, wicked wishes... painted pictures of fiery, passionate punishment.

But what happens when Mary-Anne and her Master decide to meet each other? Will the delicious, painful magic survive the transition to reality? Will their intimate bond be all they hope for, and perhaps more?

Approximately 5,000 words/11 pages.

A much shorter version of this story has originally appeared in print under the title "It Had to Happen".

An Appointment with her Master is also free to borrow from Amazon.com for the next 90 days, if you're a US Amazon Prime member. 

As part of the scheme for authors that allows us to make our titles free for a number of days, and allows free borrowing by Prime members, Amazon does ask that we sell those titles only via their web sites for 90 days. If you don't have a Kindle reader, you can still read them via the Kindle Desktop application here, and please be assured that after 90 days, An Appointment with her Master will be available at other ebook outlets and in formats suitable for all other readers.

All the very best for 2012!
