Excerpt

“Look, if you want I’ll refer you to another personal trainer.”

For some odd reason, her heart sank at that thought. She’d come to look forward to their workout sessions several times a week. The actual thought of not seeing him drilled a sharp pang of disappointment through her.

“That’s not what I want,” she admitted.

“Then what do you want?”

“I’m confused, but I’ll get over it.”

“If it bothers you that much to be around me, then let’s end it now before things get too much out of control.” With that he started the engine to his Hummer.

“Let me just say this,” Cynthia interjected reluctantly. “I don’t know how it came to be that our paths crossed the way it did. I never knew you worked at the gym until Leiland became sick. I just need you to know that I didn’t intentionally track you down.”

She twirled her thumbs as little prickly needles stabbed over her flesh and her breathing escalated. God, she feared she was about to have a panic attack or something.

“Don’t you think I know that?”

“You know we’re just friends, right?”

“No, we’re not.” Joshua spoke sharply. “We’re so much more than that and you know it.”

“There can never be anything between us. Ever.”

“And I know you’re lying through your teeth, but keep telling yourself that lie. It will tear you to pieces,” he insisted before pulling out of the parking spot. “Just be ready for tomorrow’s training. Can you at least do that or do you plan to pull another disappearing act on me?”

Cynthia’s eyes widened at words that sliced deep through her. Yeah, she’d been the one to skip town without a word, starting anew. It seemed as though he were challenging her. Was she up for it or would she retreat with her tail between her legs?

My Fitness Journey Day 37 Max Interval Plyo

Hey everyone, just a quick update of my fitness routine. I don't blog everyday, as a matter of fact I'm really horrible with updating my blog. If you follow me here, feel free to follow me on Facebook. I'm most active there and always posting when I complete my workouts.

I started Insanity June 6th and what can I say. I love it! Overall my endurance has really improved and I'm looking forward to my workouts. I lost ten pounds during the first month, and that was totally unexpected. My clothes are fitting different too and I see physical changes in the mirror which motivates and inspire me to keep moving forward. I'm addicted. There were a few days when I procrastinated, but I pushed myself to move forward. Everyday is an achievement and I want this to be a permanent lifestyle change.

My back is sore and so are my obliques. The workouts are definitely longer and more challenging. For anyone looking to do this workout, remember to stick with the form and not worry about keeping up with the people on the dvd. Do what you can do and you'll gradually pick up speed.

On Day 36 I was dreading starting the second month of Max Interval training and wishing I could go back to month one. I made it through the workout without a problem, but seriously this tests your endurance. Damn! I thought month one was challenging. Hah!!!

In later posts I'll show my results for all three fitness tests. I'm even scouting for the next workout program once I've completed Insanity. I was thinking about doing a second round of the program or doing Chalean Extreme of even P90X. P90X looks like a great program too and I definitely need a routine to help me through the seasonal changes. Remember, for me that's usually when I become a slacker with exercising. So that's a goal within itself.

Have an awesome day!

Demoness of Lust ~ Night Owl Review Top Pick

NOR Top Pick

Blurb:

Jake finds comfort in the arms of the lovely mysterious woman who visits him in his dreams. He soon realizes this being has awakened feelings within he’d never experienced in the past.

Sabrina answered Jake's lonely calls in the night. When strong emotions for the mortal develop, she discovers that she must follow her instincts and pursue the man.

A spell casts Sabrina into the human realm, but she must convince Jake to acknowledge his true feelings for her within four days. If she fails, she'll remain a demon for the rest of eternity. She also discovers destiny will have its way when she’s unable to control certain events and learns a powerful lesson of self-sacrifice and love.

Excerpt

In his mind’s eye, he and his dark angel were lying on a beach, confessing their love to one another. Jake exhaled sharply. Why was love creeping into the picture again? After all his heart had been through, he still sought love?

With a grunt, he squeezed his cock, trying to skip over the love parts while focusing on the sexual aspect, but it still didn’t work. As he stroked his cock, his dream woman planted a gentle kiss upon his lips that made his head spin and his heart lurch. He smiled when she whispered, I love you, in his ear.

He wanted to return those words, but none would form on his lips. Something blocked him. Ah, the protective wall he’d constructed just to keep others out. That’s right. No one would ever break through the carefully built walls he surrounded himself with.

Off in the distance, he literally could hear waves crashing along the sandy beach. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the sun sinking into the lonely horizon. The sky, from what he could see, was a myriad of reds, pinks, and bluish hues. The Creator had surely outdone Himself on this beautiful piece of artwork. A feeling of completion swathed him like a blanket and he didn’t have a care in the world.

Something tried breaking through his stubborn-ass barrier. “I love you too,” he heard himself say as he felt his spirit lift. He must have fallen asleep so fast this time, but he didn’t care to analyze the situation. Perhaps his fantasy had finally consumed him. Her body was soft against his. His palms itched to explore every inch of her flesh.

Soon he was back in his bedroom, as if released from his dream. He would have been disappointed, but his mattress shifted as she snuggled next to him. It was definitely her. The jasmine perfume taunted his nostrils as fingers stroked the dark hair of his chest. He groaned as she playfully bit at his nipples.

“Mmm.” Jake groaned and opened his eyes. Silver moonlight now poured in through the room, giving him a perfect view of his dream lover. Sure enough, his dark angel was right there beside him, a loving smile painting itself on her face.

She bent down and kissed his cock. Her touch was electric, and he swore he’d go through the roof if she touched him like that again. As though he willed it, she kissed him there again. His woman continued planting dainty kisses from his cock to his navel, making Jake writhe beside her.

“You—” He’d lost his breath and thrust his hips upward. “Should stop,” he said on a moan. “Please, don’t make me want you. I can’t take this.”

“Shh, Jake,” she reassured him. Soon, they were locked in a passionate kiss, her tongue caressing his, blinding him with an emotion he’d never felt before. Inhaling her scent, he reached for her, encasing her in a strong embrace. He never wanted to let her go and was determined she wouldn’t leave this room.

She grabbed his hand, eagerly placing it between her trembling thighs. Her feminine scent had him hard as steel, and her wetness dripped down the crease of her legs. With a masculine grunt, Jake brought his fingers to his mouth, sampling her nectar.

“Oh. My. God,” he cried out in a baritone voice as he peered into her eyes, wondering what her name was. He just had to know.

“Sabrina,” she whispered. Her husky yet gentle voice sent a shiver up his spine.

Jake wrinkled his forehead in confusion. “What are you? Is this for real?” His hands explored her smooth, satiny flesh. “It feels like you’re here with me, but—”

She placed a lone finger against his lips. “We don’t have much time,” she said sadly.

Still mesmerized by her presence and beauty, he stroked her thick, curly hair. “So beautiful,” he breathed while soaking up how she looked. He just had to burn her image into his memory before she disappeared along with the sunrise.

“Do you want me all the time?” she asked as curiosity masked her gentle features.

Fear sliced through his heart. He wanted her in every way imaginable, but did it mean he would soon experience the sorrow of a broken heart again? He wasn’t sure he could withstand the pain.

Available Now ~ My Personal Demon

Helena never considered the consequences of striking a bargain with her personal demon, Cyn. The entire Pearsall line was cursed, so what did she have to lose? She would have done damn near anything to stave off bill collectors and ensure her aunt received the best medical treatment possible. When her luck turned around and it was time to make good on that bargain, Helena discovers she's giving up more than her soul. Is it possible to fall in love with a demon? 

After sealing the deal with Helena's blood, Cyn is determined to keep the mocha skinned beauty by his side. The curse has claimed the majority of her family, and now he must work extra hard to ensure her safety. However, there's a little more to Helena than meets the eye. He soon discovers she is the key to ending the Pearsall curse, but she is also the instrument for unleashing Hell on earth.

Excerpt

The severance package had run out, and she couldn’t afford to let their bills lay by the wayside. The wolves were upon her and between threatening calls from collection agencies and nastygrams, she thought she’d lose her mind. She had been forced to take other measures back then. She’d called upon Cyn for monetary reasons.

“Like…now!”

The demon’s baritone voice ended on a demanding hiss, snapping her back into reality. A shiver ran up her spine as the hairs on the back of her neck stood on end. Okay, maybe she could make it happen. Cyn certainly wasn’t taking no for an answer and she was determined to look after her aunt, at all costs. Soon she’d be at his disposal.

“Once again, when can you move in?”

“Move in?” Live under a demon’s roof? What the hell had she been thinking when she signed her soul away last year?

He impatiently strummed his long fingers against the lacquer desk. “Well…yes. I mentioned that the day you summoned me, or have you forgotten my terms of the bargain?” He winked at her, causing a bolt of desire to ripple through her tummy and straight to her clit. The man had skills. She could tell. One round in the sack with him and something told her she’d never want to leave.

When her brain finally overpowered her body, Helena’s heart dropped to the pit of her stomach. This wasn’t going to be on her terms she knew. How could she think to outsmart a demon? She had hoped she would be able to avoid all of this. After all, living under the same roof with a sexy demon of lust that possessed the god-given talent to set one’s panties on fire surely would pose a problem in the future. She wasn’t sure she’d leave the bargain unscathed. Those in her family who sought monetary assistance from their personal demons never did. They always lost in one way or another.

“Well.” She chose her words wisely. “I was thinking of reporting to you for eight hours a day. You know, like a regular job.” Her palms grew sweaty, and she wiped them on her black wool dress. Hopefully he’d agree to this, but deep down she knew he wouldn’t. If looks could kill, she’d be dead by now. Cyn’s hardened gaze seemed to snatch the breath from her, and not in a good way.

“Do you think you can just slip in and out of my realm? What do you take me for?”

Damn it! He was bound and determined to be as stubborn as she was! “Well, I was just thinking…”

Cyn growled. “I’m not paying you to think! Eight hours a day will never be enough to sate my appetite for you.” His eyes grew dark as an impending storm as he sniffed the air. “You…smell so good. I’ve never known the essence of a human to be so pure…yet so.” He inhaled deeply as his claws lengthened from his fingertips. “So dark…enticing…sexy. I could devour you right now.”

She shivered as Cyn’s demonic form wavered before her eyes. A fascinating pull and a strong aura of electricity sizzled and snapped in the atmosphere. Something stirred deep within her mind and body.

“Dark and enticing?” She laughed. “Yeah. Okay.”

“Do not make light of our situation!” He slammed his fist down on the desk. “Helena, I’ve waited for you for well over a year.” His voice was a low snarl. “I need to have you by my side. I don’t like delays. When I’m in need of…certain services, I’d prefer you not keep me waiting.” He studied her intensely before cocking a brow. “Do you wish to back out? Remember the consequences of not fulfilling your end of the bargain. I can take everything away from you and your aunt will be put away in that home. Perhaps you’ll be forced to move out of the home you’ve come to love.”

Helena squeezed her eyes shut at the thought of putting her aunt into a nursing home. That was just unacceptable. It was even more heart wrenching to lose her three-bedroom, single-family home. She’d put her blood, sweat, and tears into everything she owned. Well, with the demon’s assistance, of course.

“Um. Yes, I’ll do whatever is necessary.” Her mind raced as she concocted a plan to rearrange her schedule. Aunt Mimi would be okay; she promised herself she’d check in on the woman twice a day when she wasn’t servicing Cyn. She wrung her hands nervously in her lap, not wanting to show him that she was afraid, but it was too late. By the look in his eyes, he’d already scented her fears.

As if reading her mind, the demon spoke. “I will allow your aunt to move in too. She’ll be placed in the west wing and will be looked after very well, I assure you.” He leaned back into the black leather chair and folded his arms against his massive chest. “Surely you don’t think me to be so cruel and leave her behind with no one to depend on? You can see her whenever you’re not servicing me, of course.”

A brief moment of relief swept through her. Her aunt needed her and she had no intention of deserting the woman. They’d come too far.

“Thank you.” The breath was pushed from her lungs as the man’s gaze hardened again. She’d caught him looking at her cleavage. He smiled, baring razor-sharp teeth. Did he lick his lips? Suddenly she felt like she’d become a mouthwatering buffet, the way he was eyeing her up.

“Very good. I’ll make the necessary arrangements to bring her here. In the meantime, I’ll give you a tour of the mansion and show you where you’ll be sleeping.”

“Oh! My things. I’ll need my clothes and…”

He cut her off abruptly. “You’ll have everything you need here with me. Clothes, toiletries, anything you want. Now…to complete this bargain.” Cyn opened one of the drawers and pulled out an old scroll. With a dark smile, he unrolled it and glanced at her. “I suggest you reread the terms of our bargain. I advise you to read over everything carefully, just as you did a year ago.” He motioned for her to take the fragile-looking material. When she did, her hand shook.

My Fitness Journey

Happy Saturday everyone! Just wanted to write a quick post while things are still fresh in my mind. I'll be posting my fitness journey here once a week, probably on Saturdays because this is when I push my limits by working out 90 minutes or 2 hours. During the week I usually work out 40 - 45 minutes per day, sometimes 60, depending on my energy level and projects I need to do.

I'm no stranger to exercise, I've worked out all my life (started in my teens) but I just have a problem with consistency. I wish I could say I've been working out consistently since my teenaged years, but I'd be a liar! You know how it is, sometimes life ( or laziness ) gets in the way, and I swear I'm striving to change this! Oh yeah, especially because I'm 42 now and the old metabolism is slowing down. (You think it slows down in the 30's?)  I love to eat, but I don't starve myself. In my twenties I was so determined to have a sculpted body by the time my forties came a knocking and I plan to keep that promise to myself.

In February 2013 I started working out again several times per week. Before that, I started an exercise regimen in August 2012 which lasted for only two months.   : )  Before that I may have exercised every two or three months, stop, start, and so on and so on. My most memorable and longest workout routine started in 2002 and ended in 2008. My youngest daughter was born in 2000 and I gained a lot of weight. It melted off through a combo of cardio kickboxing and resistance training with bands you attach to doors and weight lifting. In three months time I saw a big difference and I worked out five to six times a week. It was like an addiction. In 2008 I started school and unfortunately became a slacker. In between working 40 hours per week, family, my daughters' activities, and maintaining my grades, I pushed exercising aside. I managed to get a way with murder for a year and a half, but then the weight started creeping in on me. Oh yes, and I was eating any and everything in sight. Every so often I'd start a workout regimen, but it would last a week or two, and I lost my focus.

This time I'm determined to keep things going because to be honest with you it becomes difficult the older you get. Currently I'm obsessing again with the exercising. It has become an addiction for me. For the past few months I've been alternating TaeBo workouts.

Tuesday I started my 30 Day Shred with Jillian Michaels. There are no days off when you're doing The Shred! Throughout the week I've been doing the Brazilian Butt Lift and TaeBo. Must keep the cardio going!

My goal is to start the Insanity program once my 30 days with Jillian Michaels is up. I've had Insanity since February, and never opened it. I know. That's horrible, right??  LOL     http://www.beachbody.com/product/fitness_programs/insanity.do

I used to post every day on Facebook about my regimen and I had some people email me to say I inspire them and why did I stop? So I'll be posting here on my blog once a week. If you're up for it, why don't you join me?

Five Black Roses

Happy Cinco de Mayo everyone!

Blurb:

Exactly at midnight on May 5th, 2006 Mahogany Messeroux cast a spell to obtain the perfect man. She never dreamed the spell would deliver Acacius Montoya, a warrior straight from the Battle of Puebla, Mexico in 1862. For Mahogany, it was love at first sight. But--there is just one problem. The handsome Latino must return to his own time after every Cinco de Mayo and can only be summoned once a year. Five years later she discovers she has the opportunity of saving the man she loves and keeping him in her world on a regular basis, or so she thought.


Acacius Montoya is doomed to repeat the same day at the Battle of Puebla for all eternity thanks to an evil warlock, Maximilian. The ebony bruja intervened just in time to save his soul from The Harvester. But who will save Mahogany from making a mistake that may cause her to miss the spiritual evolvement necessary in shaping her future as a person and a witch? 

Excerpt:

Anticipation filled Mahogany Messeroux as she lit the last of the five 

candles in preparation for summoning Acacius’ soul. Briefly she looked around her bedroom before casting her glance to the magic circle. The circle was perfect and had been cast with care. 

At the stroke of midnight on May 5th, 2011 she'd bring forth her lover, Acacius, from his time of May 5th, 1862. Exactly five seconds before midnight, five drops of her blood would be all she needed to manifest his spirit. 

For the past five years, the lovers only had the pleasure of each other’s company one night per year thanks to the cruelty of Maximilian, an evil Austrian warlock. Acacius' spirit had first presented itself exactly five years earlier, the night before Cinco de Mayo. Having become fully acclimated to her new powers as a witch, she'd cast a spell to bring forth the perfect man. Never in her wildest dreams would she have imagined she'd meet one. 

Sweat beaded her ebony skin as she closed her eyes to meditate briefly. Tonight would officially be her last chance to save Acacius' soul. If she failed, he'd return to 1862 and would be forever lost to her. She’d known she loved him since the first night she summoned him, and she knew he felt the same. 

Over the passing years dreams had presented themselves to her, and then she’d captured visions of her lover's life, saw him forced to repeat the battle every day for all eternity. With the passing of each year, bits and pieces of Acacius' dilemma fit together like pieces to a puzzle that only she could unravel. 

* * * 

Acacius' chest burned and bile formed in his throat as the harsh blow knocked him from his horse to the ground. Agonizing pain shot through his body as he shifted and rolled away from the hooves of his horse. Death and destruction lay all around him from a fight he'd never win, thanks to the curse of the warlock. The Mexicans should have been victorious over the French; he knew this to be true in his heart. Yet a Mexican victory was not part of the warlock's intentions. He, along with his comrades was being harvested for something—but what? 

His spirit, although strong, fought to hold on to the last shreds of sanity and the final moment when he'd find solace in Mahogany's arms. From the first moment he’d laid eyes on the ebony angel, he’d known he loved her. When his comrade was shot dead and fell from his horse, Acacius knew his moment had arrived once again. This was always the scene he was forced to repeat. However, something wasn't right. The events before him seemed to slow before his eyes and Maximilian appeared in front of him, musket in hand. 

His eyes never leaving Maximilian's, Acacius rose to his feet as pain racked his body. Ignoring the ache, he tightened his jaw and lifted his head in 

defiance. Pure evil emanated from the warlock's eyes, making it seem as though a thousand prickly needles penetrated his skin. His fists tightened when the man spoke. 

"Your witch can't save you on this day Acacius," Maximilian said with a snarl, bringing the musket up to fire. "You will be trapped here with me for all of eternity. I promise you this." 

"Why not end this tragic suffering? Why torture us? You know the outcome of this battle, why have you changed it?" Rage coursed through his body. Acacius sought vengeance—If only Maximilian were man enough to face him in hand-to-hand combat instead of hiding behind a musket and magic, he knew he'd be the victor. "What can you ever hope to achieve from this act?" 

Maximilian had never presented himself to him before this day. Mahogany had warned him last year that the wizard would finally reveal his plan. 

Maximilian laughed. "I shall reap many more benefits of delivering all the souls here on this day to the Master. I am and forever shall be the only one to harvest souls.” A cruel smile formed on the madman’s lips. 

Before Acacius could speak, Maximilian fired the musket and the bullet emerged in what seemed like slow motion. Suddenly, Acacius felt a strong otherworldly pull at his being, and he could smell Mahogany's perfume. Her voice was like the sweetest music he ever heard. Ah, it had been entirely too long since he’d last heard his angel's voice. "Summonus Halbitris, Sulterne, Bahizm! Summonus Halbitris, Sulterne, Bahizm!" 

He'd almost forgotten what she sounded like, with the exception of her voice in his dreams.... 

Maximilian's face turned into a grotesque mask of hatred when he realized what was happening. Acacius felt himself rising as the warlock continued to fire the musket in vain. The bullets dissipated before Acacius' very eyes. Sending up a prayer of relief, he realized Mahogany must have cast a protection spell; he was sure of it. Tossing the musket aside, the warlock shouted venomous curses while waving his hands, apparently trying to stop what was happening. 

"You cannot escape me, Acacius! I will follow and kill you and your witch!" 

Feeling slight pressure from Maximilian's spell, Acacius told himself his precious witch had everything covered. Soon after, however, trepidation set in. Something in his gut told Acacius there was no escape.

Of Cheetah's Blood

TGIF!! Today I'm spotlighting Of Cheetah's Blood from my backlist. This book is part of the Vampire Domination Series from Amira Press and can be read as a stand alone. Of Wolf's Blood is the first book, so I'll highlight that next week. I had a reader contact me to say how much she enjoyed Of Cheetah's Blood, so I'm posting it. Check out the review here   Also, you should know, there is another book in the series that should be released by the end of the year or the beginning of 2014.  ; )

Chetiera hails from a powerful, ancient clan of cheetah shifters who were decimated by the Dhampirs and vampires. Now, she and her Elder are the last of their clan. At least, that was what she was told…

In her quest for revenge, Chetiera’s feelings surface for the Dhampir, Krulnar and his leader. Determined to remain in control, she stifles her feelings for both men and is determined to slay them for the extinction of her people.

Krulnar is filled with remorse whenever he battles the shifter. How can he share what he feels when she believes the Dhampirs are responsible for the extermination of Chetiera's clan? He's more than understanding about her dilemma, but his leader, Ulnik doesn't sympathize with her so easily.

Warning: This book contains two sexy Dhampirs who will make your panties melt, and a feisty cheetah shifter who can take them both on.

Smoking Hot Excerpt:

The Dhampir froze. “Ulnik summons me. He wants to join us.” He turned to face her. I know you desire us both.”

Chetiera turned her head from her lover in embarrassment.

Forcing her to look at him, he claimed her lips with erotic passion that sent her into a frenzy. “It’s okay to want us both. We want you. Ulnik and I have waited for this moment for such a long time.” He stroked her cheek with the pad of his thumb. “May I let him in? Little cheetah, do you think you can handle us both?”

Body on fire, Chetiera nodded. Suddenly, she felt another presence. Ulnik entered the bedchambers.

“Couldn’t wait for me?” Ulnik plowed toward them and sniffed the air before releasing a growl. He looked at Chetiera. “What will it take to make you mine? Must I invoke a fight with you? Or shall we remain civil and complete The Bonding?” He walked around to the side of the bed, and ran his fingers through the shifter’s hair. His hand rested against the back of her head. “Fighting arouses you, as it does me.”

Chetiera released the bedcovers, revealing her naked body. Her chest heaved uncontrollably as the leader began to undress, revealing an equally muscled physique. He growled as he slipped next to her, his hot body pressing against hers. She panted uncontrollably at the nearness of them both.

Soon, each man was by her side, their hands exploring her flesh while invoking a state of arousal she’d never known. Ulnik’s fangs descended as he inhaled the air, and the desire to offer her neck to him overwhelmed her.

“By the gods, she’s exquisite,” Ulnik purred before slipping his hand between her thighs. “Ah, and so ready to be taken.” He smiled when the shifter arched into his touch. “Yesss, that’s right, beautiful. Give yourself to us.” He tweaked her nipples as Krulnar delivered soft kisses along the crook of her neck.

Surrendering to them both, she lay back as they spread her thighs. Ulnik’s mouth claimed her in a rough kiss as both men gently pulled the soft folds of her cunt apart. Making her gasp, Ulnik’s fingers penetrated her pussy, and she called out before jerking her hips upward.

Her hands journeyed to both men’s cocks. Slowly, she jerked them both, her grip tightening around them. The thick shafts twitched beneath her touch, and she smiled inwardly at the control she had over them. Precome saturating her hands, she took the time to taste the essence of both men.

“Do not think you have so much control over us,” Krulnar murmured in her ear before nipping her neck. “Ulnik has yet to taste of your blood.”

Chetiera moaned as the leader forcefully revealed the large vein in her neck. His growls of hunger filled her ears as the men simultaneously worked her into a frenzied orgasm. Roughly, Ulnik eased two fingers deep inside her, making her growl.

She met every thrust of his fingers as the leader sank his fangs deep into her neck. Crying out in pained pleasure, Chetiera grasped their cocks harder, as their spiraling pleasures heightened. The strong flow of energy rushed through them with force as Krulnar bit the other side of her neck. The Dhampirs greedily drank of her blood before Ulnik unlatched his fangs.

With ease, he slipped between the young cheetah’s thighs and eased himself inside her slick channel. With a growl, he filled her balls-deep, thrusting his cock in and out of her. Chetiera growled while wrapping her long legs around the leader’s thick, muscular body. Krulnar’s hips jerked upward, into her touch, as her grip tightened around his thick cock. Out the corner of her eye, she could see the exquisite look of pleasure etched onto his hardened features.

“Come for me,” she whispered against Ulnik’s neck. Those words were meant for both Dhampirs, who were releasing short, choppy breaths at their exertions. It turned her on so much. She needed to feel Ulnik’s come shooting deep inside her cunt. On the other hand, seeing Krulnar’s dick pumping out thick streams of come into the air would intensify the pleasure of her orgasm.

“Such a nasty little shifter,” Ulnik grunted against her ear. “I’ll come for you, my sweet little warrior-cat. Once I’ve shot my pleasure deep inside you, I shall turn you over and take you from behind.”

Krulnar growled. “Not before I.”

“You’ve had your time with our woman,” Ulnik growled huskily.

Chetiera shivered in delight at the thought. Ulnik’s pace quickened, and his muscles flexed beneath her hands. Their sweat-laden bodies smacking together echoed within the bedchambers.

Krulnar’s climax struck him first. Chetiera saw bulging veins within his neck as he gnashed his teeth together at the intense orgasm. Her orgasm followed as his hand joined hers in pumping the come out of his thick cock. Long, thick streams of come spurted up in the air as the Dhampir howled his pleasure. Like a wave crashing against a sandy beach, Chetiera’s muscles tightened, milking Ulnik’s cock.

“Arrghh, you’ll be the death of me; I can see this,” Ulnik sputtered. Together they came, collapsing into a sweaty heap within one another’s arms.

Although Dane tries keeping the fairy with the bedroom eyes at a distance, he discovers he's fallen hard for her and becomes her protector. Soon he finds himself in Sychuria, the fairy realm and learns he is more than just a vampire....Will he stay with Dar in her realm or will he return to that which he is more accustomed to?

Blurb:

Dar learns the king plans to close the portal to the human realm. To make matters worse, her sister is in the now defunct world. Risking everything, she slips into the human world and meets up with a vampire. However, his assistance comes with a price…

A Blast From The Past: Just An Average Vampire

Good morning and Happy April 1st! I certainly hope everyone has had a wonderful Easter. Once or twice a week I'll be posting steamy excerpts of books from my backlist for those of you who are only familiar with my recent works.Today I'm spotlighting Just an Average Vampire. Check out Book Junkie's review of the book here.  Just an Average Vampire hits close to home and is one of my favorites. Love sensitive vampires? Then this book is for you!  ; )

What would you do if the man you adored admitted he's a vampire?

After discovering the courage to divorce her abusive husband, Trina Jones rises from her ashes like the legendary Phoenix. Strong-willed and determined, she rebuilds her independence. After her divorce, a string of bad luck sets her back tremendously. Faced with eviction and repossession, Trina becomes frustrated. To make matters worse, she is laid off from her job. 

Vampire Cecil McKagan graciously accepts Trina into his home once he discovers her hardship. The bond between them ultimately strengthens, and the pair become lovers. However, past negativities threaten to tear the couple apart...


Steamy Excerpt

A hard knock came on the door, startling Cecil from his thoughts. He cursed himself as his sweats made his raging hard-on so damn obvious. Oh well, what the fuck? He quickly paid for the pizza and the two liter bottle of soda. He set it down on the small coffee table. 

“Umm, that smells delicious!” She strolled into the living room with a large, black towel around her body as she carried a duffel bag containing a change of clothing. Cecil’s breath was snatched away as the woman bent over, showing off the delicious treasure between her thighs. On purpose, she had spread her legs before she bent over, allowing moist pink flesh, contrasting with that of her dark, satiny brown skin, to entice him. It was all he could do not to roll up on her and plunge himself balls deep into that tight little snatch of hers. To make matters worse, she turned around, after rummaging through her bag, with an extra large T-shirt. His face and his hard-on betrayed him. 

“Wow,” Trina purred, lowering the towel, revealing a set of delicious, full breasts. “Are you that happy to see me?” She grinned, eyeing his arousal. The little vixen knew what she was doing to him. She made matters worse as her eyes graced his body. In return, his eyes traced every curve of her body. Trina Jones was stacked, built like a brick shithouse, her breasts, firm and round, the size of cassava melons. Her ass, well, hot damn, that luscious ass of hers. He’d imagined shoving his face between those delicious plump cheeks until she baptized his face with her sweet juices. Last, but not least, those delicious, thick thighs. Her physique was exquisite, and on many occasions, he’d come close to busting a load in his jeans when thinking of those satiny brown thighs wrapped around his waist. 

“Come and get some pizza.” He turned away to fix her a plate. Trina came up behind him, grinding her mound against him like some horn-dog. “Come on, woman, stop your playing.” He would lose his control, and that would be all she wrote. Sighing, he placed a slice of pizza on her plate.
