Happy Book Birthday to Bad Boys Wanted!
Unrepentant – Lila Shaw
Lucky Lotto winner Amy Burns has had enough of family members begging for handouts. With her millions safely hidden from the general public’s knowledge by way of an anonymous trust fund, she’s moved west to find a new beginning. She’s also found Jazz, a taciturn employee at her gym she can’t seem to stay away from.Only problem? He’s an ex-convict. Can Amy trust the former thief with her heart, especially after her relentless step-brother discovers her whereabouts and threatens to expose her secret, or might an unrepentant bad boy be the real winning ticket?
Over the Edge – Stella Berkley
Nothing short of a lobotomy could make Roman King forget Sloane Holliwell—part angel, part devil, and all his. If only she wasn’t the love of his best friend’s life. Even though they’re broken up, Roman would never hurt his brother from another mother that way.
Sloane has been self-destructing since her darkest fantasy, Roman, cut her out of his life. When he finds her bruised at a bar, he saves her from yet another boyfriend disaster. But he still won’t claim her despite their obvious attraction.
Instead, he offers to teacher her how to be a submissive, so he can find her a master that will take care of her. Once he gets her in the playroom, though, he discovers Sloane is playing games of her own.
Death’s Angel – Kastil Eavenshade
Four years ago, Constantine lost the only woman he ever loved. Now the incubus is culling the responsible vampire brood’s food source. One by one he steals the souls of the blood sucker’s familiars to turn the human population against his enemy. Blinded by vengeance, he makes the one mistake that could cost him the retribution he seeks.
Half-werewolf, Indira is thrust in the hands of the vampires to maintain peace amongst the clans. Instead of being an ambassador, she becomes a prisoner and forgotten by her pack. When the vampires bring a mysterious man trussed into their dungeons, he stirs something inside long since buried. Sexy and beyond anything she’s dealt with, her beating heart yearns to sacrifice her soul for one taste of Constantine.
In the throes of revenge, can the light of one angel tame a beast bred in hell?
Finding Forever – Lynn Burke
Samantha likes to bang a guy’s headboard and take off long before he bangs up her heart. Temptation returns in the form of a Zeus-like, tattooed hunk, the man whose first kiss roused her teenage hormones. His arrival carries the promise for more, but Sam’s determination to enjoy a taste–or two–without risking her heart could cost her the chance at finding forever.
Temptations of the Cage – R. Brennan
While she’s never considered herself a submissive, Katrina Norton has always had a bit of a pain fetish, so when the opportunity to work at one of the city’s most popular BDSM clubs presents itself, she decides it’s the perfect way to indulge her darker desires and earn enough money to pay for the expensive medications her ailing grandmother requires.
But when she meets handsome club owner, Damien Michaels, Trina has to remind herself he’s a potential boss, and off limits. Certainly not someone she should be imagining kneeling before and begging for just a taste of what’s hiding beneath his expensive tailored suit.
If she could just get her traitorous body to stick to the plan.

Happy Release Day to The Crimson Rope (and me)! #erotic #BDSM #Romance #Anthology @evernightpub
Finally the day has arrived! wOot!
It’s release day for the BDSM themed anthology, THE CRIMSON ROPE, featuring stories by some of my absolute favorite Evernight Authors. I am beyond thrilled to be sharing space in the anthology with these fantastic authors:
R. Brennan (YOU ARE HERE :P)
Since I am “sharing space”, this means I also have a story in the anthology. *wiggle* One I am really hoping you all enjoy reading as much as I enjoyed writing it.
And the best news of all? It is available today — LIKE RIGHT NOW!
Here are the details on the anthology, as well as the Evernight Buy Link, so you can run over and grab yourself a copy (you KNOW you want to).
THE CRIMSON ROPE
Genre: Erotic Romance (BDSM)
Release Date: November 5, 2013
Description:
Unleash your kinky side with six titillating BDSM tales.
Let The Crimson Rope bind you in an erotic adventure sure to please, with skilled Dom’s and sexy submissives that are willing to explore their boundaries. From pleasured gasps to stinging desire, the authors of this anthology will not only seduce you, but leave you begging for more.
Be Warned: BDSM, rimming, spanking, anal sex, public exhibition
As part of the celebration, my fellow authors and I are hosting a Facebook event today, November 5th so get your butt on over to Facebook and chat with the authors, enter to win some great giveaways, and learn more about the fantastic new release.
*dances* This is the part where I get to talk about me! Or at least my story … and … ahem … Alexander Sterling, a knee weakening new Dom. (you’ll see)
Here are the saucy details for my particular story, LOCK, STOCK, and SPANK HER:
Blurb: After a bad relationship with a cheating ex-dominant, Beth Turner has been reluctant to jump back into the D/s dating scene. Her best friend, Marcy, who just happens to be a lifestyle mistress, finally convinces Beth to take the plunge and attend a local fetish munch as her guest.
Beth plans to take it slow, and certainly doesn’t expect to run into the ultra-dominant Alexander Sterling, whose BDSM inventions are the stuff of local legend. Yet, somehow, he manages to convince her to be the test subject in his spanking demonstration. Strapped into his newest invention, Beth learns quickly there is more to him than a sexy, shaved head and form-fitting leather pants.
In fact, Alexander Sterling just may be her masterful perfect match.
Add it to your Goodreads TBR Pile today!
Excerpt:
“For now, I have two questions for you.”
“All right.”
“First one is easy. What’s your name?”
Her cheeks heated. “Beth.”
He reached out a hand in greeting. “Alexander Sterling. The pleasure is most assuredly mine.”
She placed her hand in his and he gave it a light shake.
“Now that we have the formalities out of the way, my dear Beth, it’s time for the second question. What are your limits?”
She cast a quick glance around the room to find what felt like a million sets of eyes trained on them. “You want to know that now?”
“It’s relevant. Trust me.”
“Umm…” She searched her befuddled brain for a response. “Blood, scat, needles, knives, permanent marks…the usual I guess. Oh, and mummification.” She shivered. “I can get a bit claustrophobic.”
“Good.”
“It is?” She tried to keep her gaze from wandering to the contraption resting on the parquet floor between them.
“Yes. I need your help. Will you help me?”
While she didn’t know him, and had only just met the man, her body, her very soul seemed attuned to him. Her every nerve ending responded to his request with a resounding yes. Despite the little voice in the back of her head telling her she was a fool for trusting a complete stranger, Beth whispered a meek, “Yes, Sir.”
“Good girl.” Alexander turned and faced their audience. “Good evening, ladies and gentlemen, dominants and submissives. I want to thank you all for allowing me to take up some of your valuable time. Master James and his lovely submissive, Amy…” he waved a hand toward the table he had stopped at earlier, “…have requested I give you all a demonstration of my newest invention this evening. An item I am sure many of you will be very interested in seeing.”
Beth swallowed hard.

#SexySnippets: 3 Days Until Release Day. I’m celebrating now! #LeapofFaith #Erotic #BDSM #Romance
Welcome to #SexySnippets –where we share seven steamy sentences from a WIP or published work. As it says in the title, I’m ready to start celebrating since we are just three days away from my first solo release with Evernight Publishing, A LEAP OF FAITH. As some of you know, the story takes over where my Vanilla-Free Christmas tale, FAITH’S Gift leaves off, giving the reader another glimpse into the world of Faith Daniels and Richard Halstead.
I’m in standby mode on the cover from Sour Cherry Designs, which I can’t wait to see, and gearing up for the run of promotions that come with a new release. Things should get interesting over the coming weeks — thanks for riding along with me.
Here’s a peak at my soon to be released erotic romance, A LEAP OF FAITH:
Strong hands grabbed hold of her kneecaps, startling her. Richard jerked her legs apart until she knelt in an exposed V position. His voice arrived close to her ear, sending a chill through her. “When I ask you to kneel for me, this is how you are to do it. I want you to display your desire. Show your need with the pride of a submissive. Do you understand me, Faith?”
I can’t help myself…Richard is definitely one of my favorite leading men. So very Alpha *licks lips*
Anyway… thanks for coming by. Be sure to swing by the Sexy Snippets page to find the list of participating authors and go see them as well. There are some fantastic authors involved, and who knows, you just may find your next favorite along the way.
Happy Sunday!

#SexySnippets: Called to Serve #erotic #BDSM #Horror #BloodandFire
Once again, my Sunday post is just a bit late. I’m still getting used to posting up for UK times as many of the authors involved are from there.
Promise I will get better as we go 🙂
This week’s snippet is brought to you by my most recent erotic release, Blood and Fire.
His strong fingers gripped my chin. “Look at me, Frankie.”
I flexed and unflexed my fingers like a pressure release valve as I lifted my eyes to his. The intensity of his gaze tied my squirming guts into a knot.
“Bartholomew would like you to join him this evening.” Kevin’s tone matched his eyes. He expected no argument.
Blood and Fire is a dark erotica/erotic horror story featuring BDSM and D/s elements.
Description: College student, Francesca Morgan has finally met the Dominant man of her dreams. Kevin Stevenson is sexy, sure of himself, and knows just how to make her knees quake.
When he takes Frankie to her first fetish party, she is reminded being collared means her Master can do what he wishes with her, including offering her “services” for the evening to a Dominant business associate he is trying to impress.
It doesn’t take long for Frankie to realize their host, Bartholomew Andrews is nothing like any Dom she has ever served. Aside from his devastating looks and heaping financial fortune, Bartholomew can read her thoughts, and knows just how to make her body react.
Can Frankie keep her wits about her and serve at his feet without falling for him, or will Master Amazing steal both her heart and her soul in one steamy night of servitude?

#SexySnippets: The Three Ds of Animal Attraction #BloodandFire #snippet
Welcome to the blog for another installment of Sexy Snippets. I’ve been thinking about this a bit, and I owe you all a bit of an apology. Being the title of this themed post is “SEXY” snippets, I should be posting some sexier tidbits (to avoid using snippets again – writer issues).
To that end, I have changed things up.
Rather than posting an excerpt from my current WIP, since the MCs haven’t moved to the sexy part of their relationship yet, I decided I would give you seven steamy sentences from my most recent erotic release, BLOOD AND FIRE.
I absolutely loved writing Bartholomew, the hunky hero in this dark tale. He is one of my favorite fictional men. Dark and dangerous — oh, and dominant. Hehe — the three Ds of animal attraction.
Anyway, here’s the snippet 🙂
Frozen dread had seized me by the time Bartholomew laid me on the satin sheets with gentleness. His gossamer wings blocked my view of the carnage, the truth he’d allowed me to see. Anger churned in the pit of my stomach as I looked up at him.
Bartholomew shook his head, dark eyes bottomless. “No, no, my love. That fate is not for you.”
I concentrated on the concern etched on his brow, the sound of the air rushing in and out of my lungs, the beat of my heart–anything to blot out the visions of death that tried to burn poison into my soul.
One of my favorite parts of the story. Hope you enjoyed. 🙂
Be sure to stop by the SEXY SNIPPETS page and visit with the other authors offering some steamy Sunday treats for you all. Who knows, you just may find your next favorite author.
Happy Sunday!

New Release News: Blood and Fire by R. Brennan (@bexbrennan) Now Available! @Musepublishing
Today I get to share some New Release News near and dear to my heart. Why? Because today is release day for my Erotic Horror short, BLOOD AND FIRE!! *cue confetti and fanfare*
Originally released in 2011 as part of an erotic horror anthology, Sinisterotica — which a total of maybe fifteen people read, I am so pleased to have a chance to offer this story (one of my favorites) to a (hopefully) broader audience.
** NOTE: The information contained below relates to an erotic work of fiction. If you are under 18 or offended by such things, please do not read further. Thank you. **
Let’s take a closer look at this steamy erotic release, shall we?
Blurb: College student, Francesca Morgan has finally met the Dominant man of her dreams. Kevin Stevenson is sexy, sure of himself, and knows just how to make her knees quake.
When he takes Frankie to her first fetish party, she is reminded being collared means her Master can do what he wishes with her, including offering her “services” for the evening to a sexy Dominant business associate he is trying to impress.
It doesn’t take long for Frankie to realize their host, Bartholomew Andrews is nothing like any Dom she has ever served. Aside from his devastating looks and heaping financial fortune, Bartholomew can read her thoughts, and knows just how to make her body react.
Can Frankie keep her wits about her and serve at his feet without falling for him, or will Master Amazing steal her heart and her soul in one steamy night of servitude?
Be warned — Contains elements of horror, BDSM, S&M, and a Dom/sub dynamic
Excerpt: I fidgeted with my black lace garter for the third time in five minutes. No matter how much I toyed with it, the torturous material tickled my inner thighs until I resort to scratching like a flea-infested hound. Through sheer force of will, I stopped gouging at my leg, and with a quick twist and pull, adjusted my g-string, which attempted to crawl higher than any butt floss should go. Tweaking complete, I checked my appearance in the bathroom mirror.
The red satin teddy clung to hourglass curves and highlighted my green eyes, just as I’d hoped when picking it out. The bodice’s built-in push up bra did wonders for the little ladies—an added bonus. I swept a few unruly, blonde strands of hair from my face and took stock of the make-up situation. Rosy cheeks. Check. Black eye gunk. Check.
I inhaled through my nose, and with puffed cheeks, blew out through my mouth—a stress relief trick I learned watching daytime TV. But, the nervous tension remained knotted between my shoulder blades.
I guess it’s time to see if I have the balls to wear this getup in public.
Stiffening my bare shoulders, I turned away from the mirror and left the bathroom, stopping just short of barreling into Mallory.
“Jesus, Mal.” My hands found my silk clad hips. “You couldn’t wait in the living room? I told you I’d be out in a minute.”
“Sorry, but you’ve been in there for ages, Frankie.”
Holding my hands out to my sides, I turned in a circle. “Well? What do you think?”
The only woman on the planet I actually trusted appraised me from top to bottom. “Let me see your ass again.”
With a quick turnabout, I wiggled my rear at her and peeked over my shoulder to see if she approved.

Thought I would share my dark side’s new cover. Mostly because I love it so! 😛
I am beyond excited to share the fantastic cover for the anthology my erotic short, Faith’s Gift will be included in. This is my first publication with Evernight Publishing, and so far, I am absolutely IN LOVE with them as a publisher.

Here is the wonderful cover they have come up with for this years Christmas Anthology.

My Story: Faith’s Gift (R. Brennan)
Blurb: After a nasty breakup, Faith Daniels has vowed to boycott Christmas. So when her best friend, Laura, asks her to do a little dog sitting job in Manhattan over the holidays, Faith has no real reason to deny the request.
Blood and Fire to Be Published by MuseItUp Publishing #erotica #erotic #horror #BDSM
I am so excited to announce that MuseItUp Publishing has accepted my erotic horror short, BLOOD AND FIRE, and will be publishing it as a stand alone eBook.
The story is set for release in December 2012 — which is perfect timing, as my short story, Routine Maintenance will also debut in December as part of the Felt Tips Charity Anthology. The idea of having two stories out at the same time has me really looking forward to winter (and this NEVER happens).
I’m also working on a short story to sub for another anthology featuring holiday themed stories featuring KINK — we all know how I love kinky tales. *evil grin*
I’ll be sure to post more information on that as I get closer to actually finishing the story and getting it ready for submission, but I wanted to make sure to stop in and give you all an update on how things are going with me.
Didn’t want you thinking I abandoned you all again.
Best,
~Bex
