Heat Wave Blog Hop #Giveaway #freebies #fun
Welcome to my little piece of the world wide web. If you have been following along for a while, you know I have been a bit MIA from regular blogging of late. Between my family, FT job, writing, and running a fledgling indie publishing house, I haven’t had much free time to keep up with things here. My sincere apologies, especially if you missed me *grin*
So anyway, I figure what better way to get into your good graces again, or for those of you new to the blog, introduce myself than by giving something away. And that is just what blog hops are all about, friends and freebies.
Roane Publishing (the fledgling publisher I mentioned a bit ago) is hosting the hop, and giving away a GRAND PRIZE of a $50 Amazon Gift Card. But to sign up for that goodie, you have to visit their page (link below) and enter to win. But a blog hop has more than one prize, as each of the sites taking part is giving away something.
I am giving an INTERNATIONAL prize and a US only prize. So see below for the details.
For US entrants only.
Signed copy of either Call of the Sea by Rebecca Hart or a signed copy of Bad Boys Wanted, featuring an erotic romance short by R. Brennan. Winner’s choice.
For International entrants:
An ecopy of any title from the backlist of either R. Brennan or Rebecca Hart
The best part, is to enter to win, either of the prizes is to sign up for my monthly newsletter, Bex Book News, which features all the goings on for both Rebecca and R. (the same person, in case you weren’t aware). I use the term monthly very loosely, as I have not really been putting them out every month, but rather when I actually have information to share with you all. So it really becomes the best way to stay up to date on all my goings on: book releases, signings, sales, etc. So hit the link below and join today. The winners of my giveaway will be selected from those who sign up for the newsletter during the BLOG HOP event.
NEWSLETTER SIGN-UP LINK: http://wordpress.us12.list-manage1.com/subscribe?u=ce520feb72e8d80271601a406&id=e2ca63662d

Don’t forget — this is a BLOG HOP and there are bunches of other prizes to be had and new blogs and authors to visit, to hit the link below and you can visit Roane’s Blog to enter to win the $50 Amazon gift card, as well as a slew of others.

#CoverLove Cover Reveal: Blood and Fire by R. Brennan #erotic #bdsm #horror
So… my erotic horror novella is getting expanded and re-released with Roane Publishing. I am beyond excited about the change, as I am looking to expand the story into a Paranormal Erotic series, and this is the first big step in that process. Since it is being re-released, it of course, gets a shiny new cover.
I really like this one, as I feel it more accurately reflects the story itself. What do you think? Love it? Hate it?
Would love to hear your thoughts.

New Release News: Happy Book Birthday to BAD BOYS WANTED (and Me!) Plus a #Giveaway #Erotic #Romance #BDSM #NewRelease
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.

Im over the moon excited to announce that CALL OF THE SEA, my debut romance novel, is available from Roane Publishing starting today.

When her Privateer father continually refuses to allow his only daughter to sail, Ellie defies him, disguises herself as a boy, and goes in search of a captain who will give her a chance to prove her worth.
Thanks to the cursed selkie blood coursing through his veins, Daniel O’Rourke needs the sea to survive. After giving up on his humanity and spending three years in seal form, he decides to give his human side another chance. Daniel goes in search of a job and a sense of normalcy, earning himself a position aboard Captain Winter’s ship, The Siren’s Call. However, his new captain’s first assignment has nothing at all to do with sailing, and everything to do with his headstrong young daughter.
Years later, when the leader of a band of bloodthirsty pirates murders Captain Winters, Daniel and Elysandra’s lives come crashing back together with the force of a hurricane. Both experts in deception, they must find a way to trust each other in order to quell the raging storm between them, and have any hope of hunting down the captain’s killer.

Without Words by Lolly Tova
Ivy McPhee dreads attending her high school reunion, but she’s willing to brave her childhood tormentors to see the bad boy she sat beside everyday on the school bus. Though they never exchanged a word, a decade later, he still owns her heart, and she’s determined to find out if the connection she felt to him all those years ago was a shared experience.
Ollie Ashwood, lead singer of the successful indie band Infraction, is still every inch a trouble maker, but his days of partying and womanizing are over. He’s finally ready to claim the only girl he ever cared enough about not to sweet talk into his arms. Playing a set at his school reunion seems the perfect ploy to draw Ivy out and tell her she’s the woman of his dreams.
Any chance of the two alumni discovering the depths of their feelings for one another is shattered by a scheming ex-student. Only revelations about the past can get Ollie and Ivy back on the right track, but Ollie must first persuade Ivy to bear her bully’s teasing long enough to listen.

ARCs should be out around September 25th, so if you are interested in a copy for review, please drop me a note, or mention it when you sign up for the Release Blitz.
Thank you all for your continued support. I can’t tell you all how much I appreciate it.

#CoverLove Cover Reveal: Morgan’s Mountain by Krista Ames #RoanePub #Western #Contemporary #Romance
Welcome back to the blog and Happy Monday! Today I have a treat for you all — a visual delight, as it were. I’ve got a new cover to reveal to you. One I had the pleasure of getting to create. This one is for a contemporary western romance novella, MORGAN’S MOUNTAIN, the next installment in Krista Ames, Montana Series from Roane Publishing.
Really love how this one turned out…
Morgan’s Mountain
A Montana Series Novella
Romance, Western, Contemporary, Series, Novella
by Krista Ames
Publisher: Roane Publishing
Release Date: July 13, 2015
Description: On the proverbial run from another failed relationship, Morgan finds herself in the one place she always found solace. With every intention of being alone, she’s surprised when she comes across the one person she never expected.
Luke would go to the ends of the earth to figure out why Morgan ran away five years ago and make things right with her. However, a dangerous trek up the mountains to her family’s cabin might not have been the smartest choice. To say she was happy to see him would be a huge lie. Having to rescue him, mortifying for Luke.
Toss a kidnapper into the mix and their feelings for each other are brought into perspective, revealing parts of themselves they never thought would come to light.
