Halloweenpalooza - Day 31

Today's contest is for an ebook copy of Once You Go Demon. Demons! Five of them!

To enter, leave a comment on this post before Saturday November 5, and I'll randomly draw a winner then. Leave your email if you can so I can get in touch with the winners easier, but if you'd prefer not, just make sure to check back on Saturday.

There’s a shift of power happening in Hell, and nothing will ever be the same.

Kerr has been with high demon Horatio’s household since his age of majority. A natural submissive pleasure demon, for the last seven years he has been untouched by his master Horatio and his job has morphed into a more managerial role. Still, it’s a shock when goons from Master Belial’s house arrive at his doorstep to inform him he’s been sold and his new master expects him to come immediately.

Lost by Horatio in a card game, Kerr finds himself in the Belial household, where Ceris, Master of the Harem, takes Kerr under his wing. Kerr is not only honored and used as he was made to be, but he is given a newly acquired demon, Harmony, as his own to train. The three pleasure demons have a rocky start together, but they have all the time in Hell to figure out how to work together and it isn’t long before they begin to care for one another.

Meanwhile, Belial has waited for thousands of years for Horatio to admit that he’s actually a submissive. When it appears that is never going to happen, Belial arranges for his best friend to lose a card game in which he’s offered himself as the prize. Horatio can’t believe Belial would do this for him, but the council puts their seal of approval on the bet, and he has no choice but to offer himself to Belial, who immediately gets to work convincing Horatio that he’ll be so much happier as Belial’s sub.

Will Kerr and Horatio find joy in their places in the Belial household? Only time will tell.

Suddenly Sunday

Somehow it's been a really busy weekend. Loads of errands, lots of baking, gift wrapping. Had a wonderful time at my mother's for her birthday today, though, so it was all worth it.

I will pull week 4 Halloweenpalooza winners tomorrow and get caught up there. I can't believe tomorrow is already Halloween! This month has just flown by.

I have my first Dreamspun Desire novel due in November 1. Single Daddies with their kids all over the place. I think it's a fun little story.

Speaking of Dreamspinner, the next book in the Iron Eagle Gym series is now available for pre-order.

Way’ra Bernard is only twenty years old when his parents kick him out of the house. He has been brought up to believe being gay is wrong and he is going to go to hell for it. He tried very hard not to be gay but couldn’t change the way he felt. Now he’s living furtively in a closet on the third floor of the place he’s working as a janitor—the Iron Eagle Gym.

Neal McPherson is an unattached Dom in his midtwenties and a member of the gym. One evening after working out, he notices Way’ra on the stairs, and he’s immediately attracted and intrigued, so he asks Way’ra out. Unable to come up with a reason to refuse, and also interested in Neal, Way’ra accepts.

There are a lot of obstacles to the relationship they attempt to build after their date, not least of which is Way’ra’s upbringing and his lingering doubts about the kinky sex Neal enjoys. But with patience and persistence, Neal might convince Way’ra not only to accept himself, but to loosen his inhibitions enough to explore and find a happy ending together.

Have a great rest of the weekend!

How to make a 25% sale even better!

So a lot of my paranormal books are at 25% off on All Romance Ebooks this month (just today and tomorrow left on that!) You can find them here. And thank you very much to Changeling Press and ARE who discounted my paranormal titles from them as well, so there is more than just my self-pubs on the discount.

Anyway. Now, All Romance Ebooks has a 50% rebate sale for today and tomorrow only. That's 50% in book money for future books on top of the 25% off on the books!

It's actually 50% rebate on all books at All Romance, so that's all my titles, not just the 25% off ones. You can find my whole author listing (from my self-pubs to my books with publishers) here.

It's a great time to stock up on some winter reads!

Metro is a friend of the rescue who comes in once a month to do the books. When he sees Harry, he feels sympathy for the little bear, and something deeper, too.

Only time and patience will tell. Fortunately Metro's got both...

Love, danger, and a vampire turn Lane’s mundane life into an adventure.

For the last several hundred years, vampire Truelock’s job has protected the various Presidents of Archer Industries, a successful family-run company. Desmond Archer is getting ready to retire and he sends True on a mission to protect his estranged grandson and heir, Lane.

Lane thinks his grandfather is dead and has no idea he’s heir to a fortune. When a handsome stranger steps in and saves him from bodily harm just when he needs it, he’s both grateful and a little suspicious. That suspicion only grows when bad things continue to happen to him following True’s arrival and the claim that he’s been sent by Lane’s grandfather to protect him.

The insane chemistry between Lane and True doesn’t help either of them untangle where the danger’s coming from. Can they figure it out before Lane’s unknown enemies manage to do him permanent damage?

Movie Tuesday

Picked up and watched the new Independence Day movie. It wasn't bad. Which is kind of damning with faint praise. I'd heard it was terrible, though, and it wasn't that. However, for full disclosure, I hadn't had much sleep the night before and I did actually fall asleep about 10 minutes in and I slept for forty minutes or so. I did not bother to rewind and just went forward with it. It might have been better with those forty minutes, or it might have been worse. I think it says a lot that I didn't bother to go back to where I'd fallen asleep and it didn't really matter...

Switching gears to future movies: I really want to see Dr. Strange once it comes out. I watched the first 30 seconds or so of the preview the last time I saw a movie in the theatre (if it's a movie I want to see I refuse to watch the whole movie theatre preview because it is just so long and I prefer going into movies not having been totally spoiled) and the visuals alone look stunning. But it also has Benedict Cumberbatch in it and he's a great actor, so he should be able to do a good job with a much quirkier character.

Based on the visuals alone, I'd like to see it on the big screen. Especially if it's going to be playing in 3D at the IMAX!

I hope everyone has a good Tuesday.

My God It's Monday

And we roll up on another Monday. In fact we're almost done with another Monday. Last one with a full week of October left in it. I do not know where the time is going. Seriously. O.o

Watched The Walking Dead last night. I was this far from never watching the show again. We shall see how I feel about the next episode which is supposedly 'funny'.

I have the next Velvet Glove in for editing. It's novel length, features two couples and should be out by mid-November, depending on how the edits go! I'd share the blurb, but I haven't come up with it yet.  The blurb is like the hardest part. Well, aside from titles, anyway.

Heh. And that's where I left the post off and never went back to it!

So that was Monday...

Can a vampire and a street hustler transcend their roles to become friends...and lovers?

When Bast picks up Trick, a street hustler with few prospects, Trick is prepared to play along and have some fun. What he’s not prepared for is falling in love with Trick. Good thing for him the obsession is shared on both sides, with Bast just as quickly falling for him, needing him.

Bast is far older than Trick can even imagine, and he has another necessity that’s just as pressing as his love for Trick. Will his vampire nature drive them apart? Or can Trick accept that need takes all forms, and give himself to Bast completely?

The first full moon is always the hardest.

Danny McMann has been busy on pack business for weeks and just wants to spend the upcoming full moon deep in the woods with his pack—running, hunting, napping and generally goofing off. The last thing he wants to hear is that they’ve got another man on their hands who’s been bitten and about to turn with the arrival of the full moon.

Hammond Argyle was bitten by his assailant in a bar fight a few weeks ago. He’s been in a foul mood ever since and it’s only getting worse. As is the way his skin itches and feels like it doesn’t fit him anymore. When someone starts lurking round, following him, it’s about all he can take.

Will Danny be able to help Hammond through his first change and beyond?

When Pirou calls his brother Jag to the Old Tavern Club to help with a pair of lynx shifters, Jag is happy to help. Rescuing and rehabilitating big cats is his job, and it makes him the perfect person to take on the pair that Pirou has rescued from a circus.

Mates Hill and Cather were about to be put down by the circus that owned them as they refused to perform after their Master, tiger shifter Darri, was killed in an accident during his last performance. The pair have been beaten, mistreated, and are near death's door, so it's going to take all of Jag's resources to help these two kitties find themselves again.

Along the way, Jag just might find his heart in peril, too.

Mated lynx shifters Hill and Cather have been rescued by the good people at the Old Tavern Club, specifically by Jag, who has brought them back from the brink of death and convinced them to give life, and possibly love, another chance.

Jag wants to be more than just their rescuer, though. He desires to be not only their Master, but the recipient of their love as well. Hill's all on board, but Cather is going to take more convincing, especially when he begins to have trouble shifting from one form to the other.

Can Jag help Cather solve this new obstacle to their freedom, or are the lynx's doomed to remain in their new rooms at the Old Tavern for the rest of their lives?

Random Friday

TGIF!

Happy Friday to all!

This week has been busy, and lots of stuff has been accomplished. I've gone through and returned three edits and one proofing, and approved a galley. I still have to send out last week's prizes, go through another edit and get the latest VG novel off to my editor. But more has been done than not done.

I've made most days of my Boo pics, too. I had to catch up a couple of times and I think I'm still one day short, but on the whole Boo and I have managed to have daily fun. I kind of want to put those pics up somewhere, only I'm not sure how. Maybe Boo needs his own blog or something... I don't know. I might continue him through the rest of the year, too. We'll have to see.

Meanwhile, I can't believe it's already October 21 - time just goes by far too quickly. I want to do some Halloween chocolates and Halloween baked goodies this year. I've got ten days to go, so I need to be serious about it if I'm going to do it and get it done soon.

The cooler weather definitely wakes me up and sees me working to get on top of my todos and it makes me want to cook and bake and make things. I like it a lot.

Enjoy your Friday!

Where’s the common ground between a tiger shifter foot soldier and his prince?

Grio has one job—find dormant tiger shifters and introduce them to the world of Saffron Tigers. When he finds Professor Phoenix Lamoure, he discovers that Headquarters got a couple of key points wrong. Phoenix isn’t actually a professor but Saffron Tiger royalty…a member of the lost royal line.

Phoenix didn’t have things easy growing up. His mother spent most of her life in a mental institution, and he spent his formative years in foster care. When a stranger approaches to learn about his family history, he’s wary. When said stranger actually kidnaps him, all bets are off!

Can he ever believe what Grio says? Or will he be forever convinced that he’s as crazy as his mother was?
