Haunting Melody St. Claire

In Coverart on April 1, 2013 at 12:06 am

Haunting Melody St. Claire. Impressive, no? Ladies and Gents my first EC release with Ditter Kellen is around the corner here! Available NOW from Ellora’s Cave!

Melody St. Claire doesn’t believe in ghosts. Until a fire destroys her whole world, forcing her into a beautiful haunted house and the territorial domain of one very real, incredibly mysterious resident spirit.

Sexy Travis Santiago haunts the walls of his family home. Resigned to being alone, he merely exists in a place between the living and the dead until the frustrating little brunette enters his life and his heart. He can give her what she needs, if she would just believe.

The passion he ignites threatens to consume her, heart and soul, but may not be enough to hold back the nightmares. And Melody can’t possibly hope to spend forever with a man who is already dead.

A Romantica® paranormal erotic romance from Ellora’s Cave

No Dragon, No Problem Release Day!!

In Publishing News on April 26, 2012 at 9:02 am

No Dragon, No Problem (WTF Dragon #1)

Genres: Dark Fantasy, Erotic Romance, Humor and Satire

WTF Dragon: In the fairytale kingdom of Werthing Ton Fallorian (or WTF for short), fairytale folk have gone insane. With the imps of lust and wickedness on a rampage, no one is safe. Five Princesses, Five Dragons. A coincidence? I don’t think so.

One bound man. One desperate princess. A curse. And dragons? WTF may never be the same.

The Motive: Princess Tasminia deSoto has had it with her stepmother’s horrid matchmaking. Tricking the princess into a surprise wedding with the narcissistic Baron Winterwood from a neighboring kingdom (of the same name) is the final straw. If only there was a dragon to be sacrificed to!

The Idea: Desperation forces her to enlist the aid of the notorious Dash Ryan, illusionist and con artist for hire. Surely the wildly entertaining (and sexy) rogue can come up with something believable. And if a princess can find a little sexual education on the side… well… that’s just a plus.

The Twist: Dash Ryan has a few secrets of his own. Secrets he’s more than willing to exploit for just a taste of the princess’s sexual awakening. But will one taste be enough?

No Dragon, No Problem

In #amwriting, Publishing News on March 12, 2012 at 1:34 am

There are some things that are worth the wait, my friends. I know I’ve been out of the loop, but truth-be-told, I’ve been working. On this:

No Dragon, No Problem‘s unofficial blurb and such.

One bound man. One desperate princess. A 500-year curse. And dragons? WTF may never be the same .

Blurb:

Five Princesses, Five Dragons

A coincidence? I don’t think so.

In the fairytale kingdom of Werthing Ton Fallorian (or WTF for short), fairytale folk have gone insane. With the imps of lust and wickedness on a rampage, no one is safe.

The Motive

Princess Tasminia deSoto has had it with her stepmother’s horrid matchmaking. Tricking the princess into a surpise wedding with the narcissistic Baron Winterwood from a neighboring kingdom (of the same name) is the final straw. If only there was a dragon to be sacrificed to…

The Idea

Desperation forces her to enlist the aid of the notorious Dash Ryan, illusionist and con artist for hire. Surely the wildly entertaining (and sexy) rogue can come up with something believable. And if a princess can find a little sexual education on the side…well…that’s just a plus.

The Twist

Dash Ryan has a few secrets of his own. Secrets he’s more than willing to exploit for just a taste of the Princess’s sexual awakening. But will one taste be enough?

Less than twenty-four hours after submission, my editor contacted me with a resounding YES on the novella. She opened the doc to read a few pages, and couldn’t put it down. I received edits today, and that’s a ridiculous turn-around time. So, ladies and gents, No Dragon, No Problem will be hitting your virtual shelves in late April, early May. That’s unheard of. So I’m pretty excited.

In other news, I have another book to finish by the end of the month, so I’ll be heading back underground. Looking forward to coming back up for air soon enough.

Until then…

Keep Writing!

Primal Hunger is OUT

In Publishing News on February 3, 2012 at 10:22 pm

Hey all! I know it’s been a minute since I chatted up on twitter and facebook. The run up to Dallas and back was pretty exhausting. Over twelve hours in the car in less than 24 hours. Not fun.

Today is an awesome day!

Primal Hunger, my debut Ellora’s Cave novel is out (and a bargain at only $5.95)!

Azros del Mar hates the Sheon. Having suffered brutal abuse at their hands, he is left physically scarred and angry. An escape that nearly cost him his life results in a crash landing on a remote planet. There, surrounded by danger, he finds a woman who fires his blood, triggering a mating hunger so intense it sends him to the edge of sanity.

Kendra is a warrior in hiding. The last thing she needs is a hot-bodied, feral Valorian upsetting her mission…no matter how sexy or tempting the broad-shouldered tiger-mix may be. But when her body begins to show signs of feral heat, she realizes the one man who can soothe the hunger could easily destroy everything she’s worked for.

With war on the horizon, they must fight to stay alive. And together.

  – Buy Now -

In the meantime I’m writing up a storm on some fairytale wickedness that is sure to make some of you blush.

Keep Writing!

Another day older…

In #amwriting, Goals, Publishing News on January 25, 2012 at 12:00 am

So yesterday was my birthday. YAY! I ate at one of my favorite restaurants and got an apartment! Woohooo!!!! No more living out of our bags. Soon-ish anyway. Can’t get in there until next week, but we’ll be good. :D

On the writing front:

  • Plotted 2nd Hunger book (due to new publishing schedule, it got pushed up from March).
  • Started my Beauty and the Beast (Thief)
  • Entered an online pitch
  • Sketched out a Kitchen Witch story (Back by popular demand)

Found out that my first novel will be out February 3rd! Awesome. :D Ebook first. Print a year or so later. Love it!

Checking out Sunday’s goals:

  • Found a house! WOOHOO!
  • 5 hours of writing per day: Nope. I’ll be honest, stress over the house searching thing made Tuesday almost useless.
  • Finish up my final outprocessing for January tomorrow…more to follow in February
  • Cook dinner four times this week…tonight starts my cooking schedule. :)

Due to tons of questions, I posted my Work Day Schedule HERE. So far, I’ve hit those goals every day but Tuesday.

I spent Monday and Tuesday nights at Writerschat for Changeling Press and Ellora’s Cave. So much fun! Didn’t promo a single thing, just hung out with some pretty awesome authors. :D Had a great time.

This is a Blog Hop! Check out other writers HERE.

4.5 Ribbons for The Other Klaus

In Publishing News on December 28, 2011 at 10:33 am

How exciting! I received notice of a great review on The Other Klaus by a tweet from Romance Junkies. 4.5 Ribbons out of 5! How awesome is that?


Chrissy Dionne said

While I loved the military precision of Luke’s mission and his enthusiasm for his task its Noella’s emotional see-sawing that makes this story so endearing and memorable.  Of course if you have to be miserable at Christmastime, who better to do it with than a sexy man who actually helps with all those tedious Christmas chores and deliver on your private Christmas fantasies.

Luke Klaus has a problem. Christmas will be canceled if he can’t get Destiny, Texas, back on the Holiday Cheer Map. A Christmas wish is all that stands between him and a perfect record. His target is packed with killer curves and a heart of gold that’s been broken one too many times. Lucky for Luke, mixing a little business with pleasure might be just what the holiday doctor ordered.

Noella Davis is tired. Too many years as Destiny’s cheer coordinator has left her drained and disillusioned. Is it a coincidence that brings her face-to-face with her old crush, or does the man in black leather have his own agenda? Either way, she’ll have her cake and eat it too even if she has to tie him to the bed. Maybe her Christmas wishes will come true…

This really is a case for The Other Klaus.

Cover Love

In Publishing News on December 6, 2011 at 11:01 pm

Will you get a load of this? Primal Hunger has a rawr cover.

What do you think? Delicious, huh? No date for release yet, but I’d expect an early 2012 launch. :D

In the meantime, I’m working on two novellas: A Familiar Kiss and Nexus. Both are making me growl with frustration atm. I keep getting distracted with the looming move. 34 more days until I say goodbye to the EDJ/Alaska and hello to Texas/full-time writer.

I would say that I’m going to miss all the traveling, but to tell you the truth…I just want to spend some time with my family and do the mom thing. I’ve missed so many things. Globe-trotting is fun, but the cost just isn’t worth it to me any more. Muah! Enough of this seriousness!

The Other Klaus comes out this week! I’ll post the release on Friday!

Christmas Story Accepted!

In Publishing News on October 27, 2011 at 8:11 am

Great news! My editor picked up The Other Klaus for Changeling Press’s White Hot Christmas series. I love participating in the December promotional. Every White Hot Christmas purchased puts that person in a drawing for free Changeling releases all year. Every single book that is released. Not a bad deal for short hot reads that set your blood pumping, and won’t bust the wallet.

Unofficial Blurb:

Luke Klaus has a problem. Christmas will be canceled if he can’t get Destiny, Texas back on the Holiday Cheer map. A Christmas wish is all that stands between him and a perfect record. His target is packed with killer curves and a heart of gold that’s been broken one too many times. Lucky for Luke, mixing a little business with pleasure might be just what the holiday doctor ordered.

Noella Davis is tired. Too many years as Destiny’s Cheer coordinator has left her drained and disillusioned.
