The Candy Cane Kink Giveaway Hop!

They say that if you're naughty, you don't get a visit from Santa Claus at Christmas time. Well I say, phooey on that! Naughty is nice, in my book. At least when it comes to bedroom fun! Consenting adults who indulge in kinky fun are NICE, dammit!




In honor of those of us who are naughty AND nice, I'm giving away a copy of my Kinky Vampire BDSM novelette, IF WISHES WERE SHADOWS!

All you need to do is comment with your name, email address, and let me know: What's your favorite kink, literary or otherwise? Do you like BDSM? Any particular flavor? Do you like a nice vampire bite? A possessive werewolf who declares his (or her) mate "MINE!" We all have something -- and though they may not be "kinky," if it's something we need for a story to turn us on, it's still our special kink. What's yours?

Besides my own book, the sponsors of this hop are giving away a fun holiday kink toy box. Check out the main page for details!

Don't forget to check out the other sites on the hop for more awesome prizes and chances to win!

Thanks to the hop runners and all the awesome, kinky folks who stopped by to take part!

If you didn't win, SHADOWS is still available for sale now at Cobblestone Press!

SHADOWS is an old-fashioned kinky menage story that explores the dark, secret world of vampire kink. Heroine Calinda Byer thought she knew what BDSM and vampirehood meant... until she goes to her immortal Dom Adam Starton's house on the weekend in the story.

With her safeword in hand, she climbs down, literally, into the darkest parts of Adam's needs and desires. The question becomes: can she get out alive again, and does she want to?

Don't miss it!

The MERRY MENAGE Blog Hop!

 

When it comes to steamy, smutty, sexy fun, two is good -- but MORE IS BETTER. There's nothing quite as much fun as a three or more sex scene, or the emotional complications of a menage relationship. 

You can mix up your genders to whatever floats your boat that particular day, or you can have all the roles be a single gender. A special challenge as a writer, but well worth it when it's done well! Even better, you can find menage erotica and romance in ever sub-genre. One of my all time favorite menage scenes is between the delicious Jean-Claude, Richard, and Anita, the vampire, werewolf, and ... whatever Anita is these days LOL in the Anita Blake Vampire Series book, INCUBUS DREAMS. HOT, and long, LONG awaited for a kinky reader like me. Frankly, there should be less of the other 15 guys in Anita's bed and go back to that basic three. More than enough drama there!

But back to the matter at hand: the Menage! One of my all time favorites is MENAGE by Emma Holly. But if you want to find more, try some of the great Listopias at Goodreads:

Best Menage Fiction

The lists include all kinds of sub-genres, from Gay to BDSM, to menage a quatre, and more.

Of course, I have a particular fondness for my novella, IF WISHES WERE SHADOWS. This hot menage will be reappearing in future stories, but you don't want to miss the scene that brings all of the characters together for the first time.

I don't want to give away too much, but let's just say that while the heroine, Calinda, has signed up for a weekend learning the deepest of her vampire Dom's dark secrets, the third sexy vampire that joins them changes the entire dynamic of the scene, and her thoughts about her life, forever.

And it's really hot. *G*

Let's face it: why just take one partner, when you can have two or more? Hands and mouths everywhere, bodies entwined so that it's hard to keep track of whose are where.

It's fun to be naughty at holiday time! In celebration, I'll be giving away a copy of IF WISHES WERE SHADOWS, to satisfy the kinkiest of your menage vampire BDSM fantasies.

All you have to do is share your favorite menage form (M/F/M? M/M/M? Not really picky?) What's your favorite menage story or author? Answer in the Comments, and enter in the Rafflecopter below!

The HOT AUTUMN NIGHTS Blog Hop

The nights are getting cool, or even COLD, outside... but that doesn't mean that has to be the case between the sheets! Or in a hot shower, or on the thick rug in front of the fire, or in the nice, toasty dungeon.

Now, this is a PG-13 hop, so we have to keep things to TV level, so cool it, all you kinky ladies and dudes. ;)

There are lots of ways to warm up when the leaves are falling (or... the snow, where I am). I'm thinking grilled cheese and homemade tomato soup, a long, hot bath (alone or with a friend), tucking up under your Snugee with a good book... or between the sheets (with a book or a friend... or with a book and grilled cheese, a melting candle, and a friend...) I think there's a pattern developing here, involving hot cheese and a friend.

There's no hot cheese in my novella IF WISHES WERE SHADOWS, but there are definitely HOT friends and HOT action involved. If you like it twisted and dark and full of vampires. Which I do. Follow the Rafflecopter bread crumbs below, chat me up in the comments, and you could win a copy.

But if you comment here, that's not all you're in for! The hop is offereing a terrific grand prize of $155 to really heat up your nights! At least, if you can get something fun from either Amazon or Barnes & Noble (Let's put it this way... you know how Amazon sells MORE than books? Yeah, well, let your naughty imagination go from there!)

The Winners of my BLACK FRIDAY BLOG HOP Giveaway!

First of all, I'd like to thank Carrie Ann of Carrie Ann's Blog Hops for sponsoring yet another fun and wonderful hop! It was a quickie, and smaller than the usual ones, but I still got to meet some wonderful new people.

The winners of a copy each of IF WISHES WERE SHADOWS are:

Veronika and LisaRayns! 

I hope you ladies enjoy your prize, and that everyone had a great holiday -- and didn't get trampled in the Black Friday MADNESS! LOL

I just returned from visiting relatives, so it's going to be a bit before I catch up, but I'm working on some new activities and offerings for the blog in the future! Stay tuned and stay kinky! ;) 

Welcome to THE BLACK FRIDAY BLOG HOP!

I don't know about you, but I think Black Friday is just a complete obscenity. Dragging workers out of their homes on Thanksgiving to go out and feed our mindless need to have EVERYTHING. RIGHT. NOW. Big business could easily offer exactly the same prices on, say, the following Saturday, Sunday, or Monday. But no, they've set up this disgusting display of consumerism that brings out the very worst of western culture, all packed in a single day of frenzied madness. People get trampled, robbed, and SHOT, for heaven's sake! And for what, the last Furby? A particular gadget over another exactly like it?

I've never once gone anywhere near this madness. I shop online almost exclusively for the holidays, except on Small Business Saturday, when I patronize local businesses and support my local economy. I'm certainly not going to let my hard earned dollars support this kind of greed and thoughtless grubbing.

But not to get all preachy -- this is supposed to be a FUN alternative to all that madness, for those of us sane enough to stay home. The BLACK FRIDAY BLOG HOP is about getting presents RIGHT HERE in the online book community from authors you love, or maybe from some new ones!

I will be giving away one copy of my new dark BDSM vampire menage novellette (phew!) IF WISHES WERE SHADOWS for a special winner of the drawing.

But there's MORE!

"While the rest of the US is out handling the crowds, fighting for their holiday gifts, some of us like to stay in, shop online, or just ignore Black Friday all to together. This year, join us in our second annual Black Friday Blog Hop! It's a ONE DAY hop where we're giving away prizes, talking about books we love, and most likely  eating left over turkey. :-)

The hop is November 23rd and is ONE DAY only.

And while we do that, we are EACH doing a giveaway. Yep. There will be over 200 giveaways on each blog hosted by that Author or Blogger.

But that's not all....

We have THREE grand prizes. You as a reader can go to EACH blog and comment with your email address and be entered to win. Yep, you can enter over 200 times!

Now what are those prizes?

1st Grand Prize: A Kindle Fire or Nook Tablet

2nd Grand Prize: A $75 Amazon or B&N Gift Card

3rd Grand Prize: A Swag Pack that contains paperbacks, ebooks, 50+ bookmarks, cover flats, magnets, pens, coffee cozies, and more!

Save yourself the stress and get some presents for yourself or the reader in your life!

Welcome to the WICKED AFTER DARK Blog Hop!

Wicked means a lot of things: coloring outside the lines in life and in the bedroom; being different than the average, run-of-the-mill. Wicked is an adverb that adds a flash of special to any descriptor, and if you're a surfer, you've just had the ride of your life. Let's not forget the classic Broadway show, either!

Of course, my favorite kind of wicked is the steamy kind. A little kink -- or a lot, depending on my mood. In my upcoming novella (out November 15 from Cobblestone Press!), IF WISHES WERE SHADOWS, the heroine, Calinda, definitely embraces her "wickedness" -- her heart (and other places) calls her to follow the man she loves into the ultimate depths of her desire, and it changes her forever in ways she never could have dreamed.

Wicked doesn't have to be about kink (although I really like it that way) -- it can also be a state of mind, an attitude the colors everything about a character. A wicked rogue from an old fashioned (or new, erotic!) historical. A smart aleck with a wicked sense of humor.

But it's the "after dark" part that's important here. The world of the paranormal and BDSM romance both offer opportunities to reach into experiences that might be considered "wicked" in other company, but around here we can revel in what really turns us on, can't we? Let me know what you think when you imagine "wicked after dark," and you'll be entered to win a $10 gift card from All Romance Ebooks, a great source for whatever scratches your itch. ;)
