ELEMENTAL HEAT by Cristal Ryder

miranda — Fri, 11 May 2012 21:14:04 +0000

Elemental Heat – Coming Soon – May 16

Jenna takes a big risk and decides to live in the moment. After months of communication by social media, she accepts an invitation to Colorado where she finally meets her cowboy. Burned by past romances, Jenna is determined to move on and goes with one goal in mind—a booty call with a tall, dark, sexy cowboy.

Chet is a romantic at heart and when Jenna arrives, he knows there’s more to her than a pretty face and a hot body. A casual fling won’t do. He’s smitten and decides to woo her the old-fashioned way with time and patience. And of course, hot sex.

Their chemistry is elemental and they come together with heat that sears the snowy peaks. When Mother Nature steps in, Jenna is forced to face the feelings she’s tried so hard to keep buried and Chet has to draw on his mountain skills to save the woman he has come to love.

IN THE PENALTY BOX by Riley Shane

Nikki — Wed, 07 Mar 2012 19:09:15 +0000

For four years, writer Landon Quinn has struggled to forget the one night he spent with Seattle Marauders defenseman Gregory Samson. Then Landon’s life takes an unexpected turn, and he finds himself back in Seattle and face-to-face with the man who broke his heart.

Samson doesn’t know what he did to run Landon off all those years ago, but he’s sure Landon’s leaving was for the best. The bright, beautiful young man Landon had once been was far too adoring, far too open, for the closeted hockey player’s peace of mind. The intervening years have only made Landon an even sexier temptation — and Landon’s return presents Samson with a whole new set of problems.

Attraction sizzles between them, but having been burned once by Samson has left Landon twice shy. Even as Samson convinces Landon to let him out of the penalty box and into his life, Samson has to face the fact that his closely guarded secrets may come to light. Caught between the ghosts of his past and the promise of a future with Landon, the hockey star must decide if now that he’s come off the bench, he’s ready to come out of the closet.

COUNTDOWN TO GEARED FOR PLEASURE RELEASE PARTY!

miranda — Sun, 04 Mar 2012 22:52:32 +0000

Best Selling Author R. G. Alexander launches her new alter ego with the release of

Geared For Pleasure by Rachel Grace!

R.G./Rachel is going about this in a grand fashion! On Monday March 5th the countdown begins on her Smutketeers blog! As part of the festivities there will be a Scavenger Hunt with many prizes contributed by some very fine authors! There is even an image hidden on our site! Ms. Grace will also be stopping by the Chatting with Joyfully Reviewed Chat Loop at 4PM Est. to chat about her new release and her blog party. Here is more on Rachel’s hot steampunk romance Geared For Pleasure!

The world of Theorrey runs like a well-oiled machine. The
elements are in balance, passion is tamed and the young queen
is the heartbeat of it all. But in these two all-new stories of
elemental steam, nothing is ever as it seems…

Earthly Desires

Demeter “Dare” Senedal is the Queen’s Chalice-her protector and closest companion. So when the queen goes missing, Dare rushes to locate her, even though the search leads her straight into trouble.

A gentleman who trades in secrets and sin, Bodhan revels in carnal delights, but when a naked and bound woman appears on his shore, he finds his hunger to possess at odds with his need to protect. As Bodhan shares his knowledge of pleasure, Dare must decide if she can trust him, both with her mission and her heart.

Fiery Temptations

Seraphina always lands on her feet. After all, she is a Felidae-more feline than human-and an excellent thief. There has never been a job Phina wouldn’t take or a man who could tame her…until she meets Cyrus Arendal.

As the Queen’s Sword, Cyrus should have known better than to fall victim to a beautiful bandit. Now, to find and retrieve the moonfire dagger, he’ll need to convince Phina not to judge a man by his station, but rather by how completely he can satisfy her desires.

Indies Unite for Joshua

Nikki — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 20:47:19 +0000

We are a worldwide group of independent authors, publishers, filmmakers, and artists rallying to support a fellow writer.

Joshua is the 21-year old son of author, Maxwell Cynn. Max writes speculative fiction, science fiction, and romance. His son has been diagnosed with Acute T-cell Lymphoblastic Leukemia. The cancer has invaded every part of his body: brain; spleen; liver; lymph nodes; and he has a mass in his chest. Joshua has had to suspend his studies while undergoing aggressive chemotherapy and will not be able to graduate this semester. With three-and-a-half years of a 4.0 GPA toward a degree in philosophy, his peers and professors consider him brilliant, as of course, does his father. Joshua would have been the first person in Max’s family to graduate college.

To learn more about this amazing young man, read Max’s incredible post.

CRIMINAL PROMISES by Nikki Duncan

Nikki — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 21:14:03 +0000

Seasoned, act-first-ask-questions-later Detective BD Harte is assigned to protect Maggie Sullivan when she’s targeted by an escaped serial killer he’d put away once. Getting up close and personal with the sensuous widow he once felt an inappropriate temptation for threatens BD’s emotional distance. Attraction quickly flares into an irresistible passion, forcing him to wage a battle of self-control, while smothering his longing for the life he almost had…and still covets.

After one too many violent taunts, single mother Maggie Sullivan invites Detective Harte to conduct his all-night stakeouts from inside her home. Her sense of security dies when her home is broken into and she discovers Harte’s been investigating her late husband. She struggles with her attraction to him, but his understanding, tenderness and the blazing passion he awakens are yearnings she’s never known…and still desires.

Can two wounded hearts come together as one in time… Or will the killer seeking a powerful key to nuclear weaponry ensure they never have the chance?
