Timing is Everything
by Tasmin Baker

Publisher: Evernight Publishing

Genre: Erotic Romance

Blurb: Angie has always wanted to visit the BDSM dungeon her boss and long time friend frequents. When she finally gets there she is scared, interested, and aroused. The car trip home with the man she is secretly in love with, indicates he may feel the same too.

Unable to do much about it that night, Angie frees herself of her current ties and gets ready for the next Friday at Lily’s—taking the risk to lose her job and her best friend. Will it be worth it to find out just how deep Mark’s feelings go?

Be Warned: public exhibition, BDSM

Excerpt: (Mature Audiences Only):

Mark held open Angie’s door and guided her into the car without touching her. Sadness and disappointment shut down her breathing. Angie knew she shouldn’t have felt that way after he had shared such an incredible experience with her, but she did and she didn’t know what to do about the tension between them now.

They had always walked a tight line, Mark and her. He was currently single but had been married for almost ten years before a messy divorce and several girlfriends. She was currently in a new but committed relationship.

They never seemed to get their lives to coordinate properly and their timing was always off. Maybe she shouldn’t have pushed so hard to come investigate this party with him? Had she threatened their friendship?

Mark slipped into the driver side, his hand going to his pants to readjust himself.

“Sorry.” He apologized as he started the car.

Angie laughed. What else was there to do at a moment like this? They were both turned on, and yet they could do nothing about it. “Why? I’m as uncomfortable as you are, I’m sure.”

His head turned to her, brown eyes piercing in the darkness. Angie didn’t let her gaze drop. She had always wanted this man and her arousal was partly due to him. But, she couldn’t, she was in a relationship!

However, with Angie’s heart rate increasing steadily and her head fuzzy as though intoxicated, that didn’t seem all that pertinent at the moment.

“You’re aroused?” His voice was gruff, as though he had been standing around a campfire too long.

Angie giggled, again inappropriately. “Of course I am. Did you see that final scene? Wow …”

Mark cleared his throat and shifted in his car seat again. His face showed worry and something Angie couldn’t work out, which was unusual as she usually read him better than anyone.

She frowned as she surveyed him a moment longer. “Mark, what’s wrong?”

He cleared his throat and set his shoulders. “We’ve been friends a long time and I have no wish to ruin that …” he trailed off.

Angie’s heart rate sped up again and she clenched her knees together as a new gush of wetness soaked her panties. “Yes?”

“I’ve always wanted to taste you.”

#WickedWednesday: A Visit from the Sexy Doris O’Connor and her newest #erotic release.

I’m quite exited to share the #WickedWednesday spotlight this week with one of my favorite erotic romance authors, Doris O’Connor. She’s been a guest at the Book Nook a few times now, so my love of her writing is no secret. This week, Doris is sharing a steamy snippet from her latest erotic romance release with Evernight Publishing, The Billionaire’s Unwanted Virgin.

Here are the deets on the new story: (my kids would laugh if they saw me use “deets” in a sentence — just sayin’)

Blurb: Lie back and think of England. She could do this. It was only sex, after all. Auctioning off her virginity was the easy part—going through with it not so easy. When Alice realizes who has acquired her, keeping her emotions out of the deal seems an impossible task.

Self-made billionaire Lakota, Lance Kemnay has no time for women, let alone one who would sell her virginity to the highest bidder. Ever practical, however, he sees in Alice a solution to his immediate need for a wife. The emotions she stirs in him are just lust, and lust can be dealt with. As they connect emotionally and physically, his resolve to keep his heart aloof is tested beyond limits.

Can he trust his tender feelings, or has he been taken for a fool by the one woman he thought he could trust?

Be Warned: BDSM, spanking, rimming, anal sex, wax play, erotic asphyxiation (my kinda story…)

Now that I have you on the edge of your seat, here is this week’s #WickedWednesday snippet — from THE BILLIONARE’S UNWANTED VIRGIN by Doris O’Connor.

Excerpt: (Mature Audiences Only)

“That’s my girl.” She offered him a tentative smile, and he released her wrists. “Hold onto the sides and don’t let go, or I’ll have to tie you. Are we clear?”

“Ye … es.” A surge of affection swamped him at her whispered reply, and he sat back and watched her hands grip the sides of the sun lounger in a white knuckled grip.

He ran his hand from her collarbone through the cleft of her amazing tits down over her tummy and then tapped her mound. She bit her lip, and her body tensed. He did it again each time with more force than the last until her rib cage rose and fell in tune to her gasps of breath, and he could see the evidence of her arousal darken the crotch of her bikini bottoms.

“That’s for wearing them, when you know I want to be able to see your sweet cunt.” He ran his finger under the elastic with infinite slowness and then yanked the material up sharply until it dug into her slit and compressed her clit.

She shuddered and tried to clamp to her legs together, but a swat to her thigh stopped her. He pulled tighter, enjoying her struggle to stay still and to keep her legs relaxed, and the fine sheen of arousal coating her skin. A delicate blush spread all over her body, and she threw her head back and arched off the lounger. He bent to suckle one of her luscious nipples into his mouth, and she panted his name.

“Lakota, please … oh God …”

He smiled around his precious mouthful, and bit down hard at the same time as the fabric of her clothing ripped. A gush of her juices coated his fingers, and he slid three fingers deep inside her core. She clamped around the digits and screamed. He left a trail of little bites along her skin until he reached her swollen labia and withdrew his fingers. She moaned her denial, and he slapped her little nub of pleasure, sending her tumbling into her orgasm.

Hot, right? Now you get why I like her stories so much. If that doesn’t get your Wednesday started right, I don’t know what will.

You can grab your copies at Evernight’s site (click the book image above) or Amazon, ARe, and Bookstrand. Probably other’s too.

See you all next week.

#SexySnippets: Please, Sir, may I have some more… #LeapofFaith #erotic #BDSM #Romance

Hello and welcome back to the blog for another weekly tease brought to you by SEXY SNIPPETS, where we share 7 steamy sentences from a WIP or published work.

Being that A LEAP OF FAITH just released on Wednesday, I thought I would stick with that story for this week’s excerpt. This particular snippet comes from my favorite scene in the story — Faith and Richard’s “romantic” dinner.

(Faith is currently blindfolded and has just been fed a scrumptious morsel by her Dom, Richard)

“Thank you, Sir.”

“Would you like more?”

Her more carnal urges clawed their way to the surface, but she pressed them back into the darkest corner of her psyche. “If you wish, Sir.”

“Oh, no, little one, not what I wish. Pay attention when your dominant speaks to you. I asked if you wanted more.”

Trust me when I say, things only get better from here… but you will have to grab a copy of the story to find out.

(Yes, I can be a real bitch sometimes *wink*)

#WickedWednesday: Not A Dragon’s Standard Virgin by Siobhan Muir #Paranormal #erotic #romance

Welcome back to the blog for what has become one of my favorite weekly features, Wicked Wednesday. Each week, I share a steamy excerpt from a recent erotic publication or occasionally a WIP.

This week, I have the pleasure of introducing you all to fellow erotic romance author, Siobhan Muir’s latest erotic tale, NOT A DRAGON’S STANDARD VIRGIN.

Let’s have a look, shall we?

Not A Dragon’s Standard Virgin
by Siobhan Muir

Publisher: Siren Publishing

Genre: Paranormal Erotic Romance

Blurb: 

Sacrificial virgins are so sixteenth century, but unless Isabelle finds a man to take her innocence, she’ll likely be next.

For Isabelle Andersen, being a virgin in a dragon-plagued Scottish village is dangerous. Potentially the next dragon sacrifice, Isabelle’s only solution is to lose her innocence, and fast. All she needs is one handsome stranger she can coax into bed, but Lochmore Cott doesn’t get much in the way of visitors.

 Jonarrion Swiftwind has sworn off virgins. The last time he took one to his bed, his family paid the price for his lust at the hands of her demon-possessed father. He’s made it his mission to destroy all demons. Nothing distracts him from killing this demon until lovely Isabelle offers him tea. And her virginity. 

Just one night of passion makes Jon realize he doesn’t want to let the independent beauty go. But will Isabelle accept him when she discovers the only real dragon in her village… is him?

 

Excerpt: (Mature Audiences Only)

“Easy, lassie.” Jon stood and held her hands still, the tension humming through her. “There’s no need to rush this.” He drew her back to the bed and sat down. “Come. Sit between my legs and let me help you relax.”

“Between your… Isn’t that where your—” She gestured at his tenting kilt and blushed.

“My what, Isabelle?”

“You know.” The red spilled down her throat and flushed her bosom. He wondered if it carried on straight to her pussy. “Your manly bits.”

He wanted to laugh at her choice of words, but he didn’t wish to anger her. “There are many names associated with my ‘manly bits,’ but it’s most commonly called a ‘cock,’ and yes, that’s where I carry it.”

“Cock.” She repeated the word in her husky voice, and his said anatomy flexed with her attention. “Does it have a mind of its own, then?”

“What?” Where had she learned such things as a virgin?

“Well, it just moved.” She gestured at his groin, and he resisted the urge to cover it with his hand.

He let out a startled laugh. “Actually, my dear, it often responds when called by name, and you said it so well. It couldn’t help but take notice.”

A mischievous smile curled her lips and damn near curled his toes. “Cock.”

True to form, his dick flexed again and his arousal swelled. Her sassy confidence grabbed far more than her sweet innocence. She’d fought years of tradition within this human community to come to his room, and now added some wanton wench into the mix. Sweet Goddess, this might be better than he’d expected.

“That’s exactly how to say it, lassie.” Her smile shot straight to his balls. “Now then, let’s take off that cincher so you may relax, and you can learn the feel of my body.” And I can enjoy yours.

A Leap of Faith
by R. Brennan

True Life Tuesday — Sharing a bit of the real me. I guess we should start at the beginning… #mylife

Now, before I get too far into this, I should let you know I am considering making this a regular weekly feature. In as much as I am ever really on schedule, that is.

I have a tendency to fall behind on weekly features here on the Nook blog, but what the hell. I like to live dangerously sometimes. On occasion. A little bit…

As I state in my BIO (or at least one version of it — someplace), I am a single parent of three children. One is full grown, the second is pretty much there, and the youngest still has high school to survive. I’m sure some of you are now trying to figure out what that might mean as far as what my age is, but don’t bother hurting yourself to try and figure that one out. I’ll come right out and tell you I’m 43. I was born in 1969 to what I would find out later were amazing parents.

Here is my with my dad in all his late 60′s glory. Studly, right? I’m a big girl, and can admit to the truth of it without getting all weirded out. Kinda

I had girfriends growing up who used to tell me that all the time. I just never believed them. Now, I can see their viewpoint alot better.

Pops was in Vietnam. Marines. It’s hard for me to imagine, but that’s the truth of it. He liked to race cars at Lebanon Valley — as you can see by the pic array. Such a cutie.

But, I really shouldn’t concentrate so much on my dad, considering Sunday was Mother’s Day — so let’s shift gears to my mother. My mom is just as amazing as my dad, and truly the Ying to his Yang. God bless her for having the strength to deal with Pop, and then four Brennan children, starting with me and ending in a set of fraternal twins.

My mom’s family is from Indian Lake, but she grew up in Troy, NY. My grandfather died when she was only twelve, leaving my grandmother, Evangeline Glynn (what a name) to finish raising 5 children on her own.

Excuse me while I have another God Bless her moment. 5 kids… Damn…

What a saint she was. She passed away when I was about thirteen. My memories of her include ribbon candy, Eavenrude perfume, and Thanksgiving dinners with lots of family, Waldorf salads and cranberry sauce.

Anyway, this is a pic of my mom, Catherine Glynn. She’s the one on the right. I think this was from her senior prom, but I could be mistaken on that.

Beautiful, right? I come from good stock. No doubt about that.

I am a little hazy on the particulars, but my parents met after my dad came back from Vietnam. I think he was there in 67, but he doesn’t talk about it.

I’m not quite sure how long they dated or anything, but I was born in September 1969. They got married the following March.

Yes, that technically makes me a bastard child and not eligible to inherit their earthly fortunes or some such thing, but kinda liked it because I always know what year anniversary they are celebrating.

The pic on the right is me with my dad. Check out the sideburns…

They just crack me up. They make him look like an Irish ganster or an Elvis impersonator. Heh. Anyway, that’s where I came from.

Like I mentioned earlier, I am the oldest of four children. I have a sister one year younger, and twin siblings — a boy and a girl five years younger than me. My mom stayed home with us and worked part time here and there. Pops was an Ironworker. I guess we were a typical blue collar family. Never really thought much about it.

When I was growing up, Pop bought houses fixed em up and sold them. Then we’d move to a new one. I have vivid memories from quite a few, but we lived the longest part of my childhood in a house in Rensselaer, NY on Illinois Avenue.

We moved there when I was mid third grade, and we lived there until after I graduated from high school.

For all intents and purposes, it’s where I grew up. Oh the trouble and gray hairs I caused…

Maybe next week we’ll tackle that one.

Happy Tuesday
