<p>Three people. One erotic fantasy. And a twentieth wedding anniversary like no other.</p>
<p>Jeannie  yearns for the return of passion in her marriage. Jake wants new  excitement in the form of another man, in a way that won&#8217;t upset the  balance of his relationship with his wife. Pothos is one of the erotes  and an aspect of Eros, the Olympian god of desire. This couple&#8217;s  distinctive yearning has called to him, and by the power of the erotes  he intends to rekindle the flame of Jeannie and Jake&#8217;s passion in a  night of desire that could be the ultimate platinum anniversary gift.</p>
<p>And when the gods of love decide your marriage needs a boost, they never do it by halves.</p>
<p><em>Platinum Passion</em> is the first in the <em>Gods of Love </em>series of stand-alone, novella-length stories with the  erotes as a common theme. The erotes are Pothos, god of sexual  yearning, Himeros, god of sexual desire and Anteros, god of  requited/unrequited love. In this version of the myth, all are the children of Aphrodite and aspects  of the primal god of desire, Eros.</p>
<p><strong>EXCERPT (ADULT-RATED, 18+):</strong></p>
<p>Different  to the clean citrus smell of her husband, Pothos smelt exotic and  sensual. Not quite musk, not quite spice, but altogether it was heady  and enticing.</p>
<p>“Like someone bottled pheromones and sprayed you with it,” she muttered, wanting to bury herself deeper in his embrace.</p>
<p>“You like it, of course,” he said, and now it was Jeannie’s turn to laugh, at that supreme confidence.</p>
<p>“I  love it,” she admitted, and at her words the aroma intensified around  her, as if she were immersed in a sensual river, almost drowning in  pleasure. Her knees buckled as erotic images began to assail her. Images  of herself crammed between Jake and Pothos, the three of them somehow  entwined on the sand, moaning and rutting and taking it in turns to love  each other in the silvery light of the moon.</p>
<p><em>That’s </em>what  I want, she thought, and the ferocity of her longing had her hands  reaching up to fist in his hair. “Can you bring Jake here, too? I want  you both.”</p>
<p>“Good,”  he said, voice rough with desire. “That is how it should be. The three  of us, sharing a platinum night of passion. Together.”</p>
<p>His  decadent words sent a delicious shiver across her skin, but before she  could respond Pothos bent down to grasp the bottom of her nightgown and  rip it up and over her head. Moments later and those cotton panties were  gone too. She stood naked in front of him as he threw the underwear  aside, but strangely, she felt no embarrassment. A light breeze tickled  her flesh and puckered her already aching nipples. Pothos reached out  one finger and lightly grazed one of the expanding nubs. “Beautiful,” he  said, and now his voice had a deep huskiness. “Jake <em>should</em> see you like this. Bathed in moonlight and sensuality.”</p>
<p>His  finger left her breast and traced the rest of her body in a delicate  caress, skimming across ribs moving rapidly as she struggled to breathe  evenly, down through the curve of her waist and over her abdomen to  rest, feather-light, at the very top of her slit. Her mons was bare  except for a tiny heart shape of hair right where Pothos’ index finger  now rested. She’d had the Brazilian last week, leaving the heart in a  display of whimsy and hoping Jake would enjoy the new look.</p>
<p>But he hadn’t even noticed.</p>
<p>Unlike Pothos, who now had a crooked little grin on his face as he traced around the heart.</p>
<p>“A genuine blonde,” he said.</p>
<p>She  nodded in a distracted fashion. She was finding it more and more  difficult to draw a breath. Her gaze fell to his jeans, the denim now  clearly stretched to its limit across his groin. Not fair that he should  still have clothing on, while she stood here dressed in nothing but her  pussy heart.</p>
<p>“Would  you…please…remove…?” She reached out a trembling hand to touch his  straining bulge, and his intake of breath was audible. She enjoyed the  momentary power, mimicking his fingertip exploration of her body to  trace up the shape of his penis, over the ripped abdominal muscles and  then down again, taking pleasure in the increasingly irregular pattern  of his breathing.</p>
<p>So this…god of love, or whoever he was, could be moved by desire, too.</p>
<p>She  fumbled again for the fastening on his jeans, but he shook his head,  then stepped back to remove his clothing in a fluid movement that was  far quicker than she’d have been able to achieve with her shaking hands.</p>
<p>His  cock sprang free and she gasped at the enormous size and inherent power  in his organ. Pothos was longer and wider than Jake, but not unduly so,  as her husband was rather well-endowed. But it was not only his erect  appendage that had her eyes wide and her whole body aching for sex.  Though his shoulders were built for power his body tapered down in a  long, lean arc to narrow hips, and as he turned toward the water for a  moment she got a view of tight buttocks and impressively muscled thighs.</p>
<p>Had he done that twirl on purpose? So that she’d see and appreciate the perfection of his body from every angle?</p>
<p>Yes, she decided, as he glanced back at her over his shoulder and grinned boyishly. He most certainly had.</p>
<p>“Nice butt,” she managed, in the understatement of the century, but it was worth it to see the affronted look on his face.</p>
<p>“<em>Nice?</em>”</p>
<p>“Very nice, in fact.”</p>
<p>He  moved so fast she only had time for a quick yelp before he was standing  over her, gripping her shoulders. The head of his organ was almost, but  not quite, touching her stomach, and she could feel the radiant heat  leaching out from its proximity. “Nothing about me is <em>nice</em>, Jeannie.”</p>
<p><strong>“This  book was on fire…just the right amount of love, passion and eroticism  to make this a smokin’ hot read and a MUST add to your TBR list…cannot  wait to read more from this fabulous author.” </strong><a title="Review Platinum Passion" href="http://www.hesperialovesbooks.com/2011/12/29/review-platinum-passion-by-jennifer-lynne/" target="_blank"><strong><em>Hesperia Loves Books</em></strong></a></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Today&#8217;s guest is erotic romance author, Doris O&#8217;Connor. She&#8217;s talking about a writer&#8217;s inspiration and where it comes from. Please leave a comment for Doris on this fascinating post which includes a HOT 18+ excerpt from <em>Too Hot to Handle</em>:<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>One thing I am always asked is where my inspiration comes from. The other one is, but how does it work, really? Trying to explain to a non-writer that I simply follow the voices in my head always has me looking over my shoulder nervously, in case they call the men in the white coats, and cart me off to the mental asylum.</p>
<p>I suppose it must sound strange to someone, who hasn&#8217;t experienced it. Even hubby had a hard time getting his head round the fact that my characters are real people in their own right, who I have regular arguments with. He is used to me muttering now, when I write, or telling him about a particularly stubborn hero, who will simply not do as he&#8217;s told. I don&#8217;t know why I even try to argue with them to be honest. They always win!</p>
<p>Arguing just means they&#8217;re going into a sulk and stop talking to me, and then what do I do? Well, I go and catch up on my ever growing TBR pile. Never fails to get the voices back.</p>
<p>So, inspiration—where does it come from? Anything and anywhere would be the answer to that one.  A lot of my ideas come to me in dreams. I have dreamt entire scenes before now. The bath is another place to shut my eyes and let my mind wander. Sometimes it&#8217;s a picture, an overheard conversation, a newspaper article, even my children.</p>
<p>Whole parts of <em>Too Hot To Handle </em>were inspired by my then three year old. I smile to myself now when I read them, his little sayings forever memorized.</p>
<p>The other big inspiration for <em>Too Hot To Handle </em>was found in True Blood. I&#8217;m a huge fan of the series and I&#8217;d already used Eric for the hero in my Erotic romance Scandinavian Scandal, so when I first thought about Alex Giovanni, Alcide popped into my head.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-669" title="joe-manganiello-alcide-true-blood-1 (2)" src="http://jenniferlynne.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/joe-manganiello-alcide-true-blood-1-2-238x300.jpg" alt="joe-manganiello-alcide-true-blood-1 (2)" width="238" height="300" />I&#8217;m sure you can see how he would be inspirational right?  <img src='http://jenniferlynne.com.au/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I knew he needed a strong, fiery heroine to stand up to him and his interfering Mamma, so Kitty popped into my head. I wasn&#8217;t entirely sure about Alex&#8217;s profession. Originally this story was first set in an office.  Then I thought about setting it in Italy and Kitty was an au-pair. And then I was early for school pick up time one day. I sat in my car, waiting for the fire engine to leave, after one of their educational visits, and I observed the interaction between some of the staff and the firefighters, and I giggled to myself. Something about firefighters that turns grown women into giggling school girls…</p>
<p>Now there was a story just begging to be written, so Alex became a firefighter and Kitty a school teacher and the rest is beautiful history. Being a panster the story took on a life of its own, and Alex&#8217;s Mamma, well you have to read the book. She undergoes something of a journey herself and is a constant through the series of the Giovanni Clan. I&#8217;m still toying with the idea of giving Stella Giovanni her own book.</p>
<p>So, there you have it, a little insight into how this story came about. I can&#8217;t always pinpoint my inspiration this precisely, because an idea can hit me out of nowhere and with no warning. My upcoming Naughty Fairytale with Breathless Press, for instance, just grabbed hold of me one day and I sat down to write and couldn&#8217;t stop until it was done.</p>
<p>And with <em>Too Hot To Handle </em>too, once I started writing it, there was no stopping me, until Kitty and Alex had their HEA. Because it has to be a HEA. I couldn&#8217;t write a story without one. <img src='http://jenniferlynne.com.au/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p><strong>When firefighter Alex Giovanni returns to his old neighborhood to fulfill family obligations, he is reunited with the woman inhabiting his dreams. The sexy siren ran out on him after one explosive night many years ago. Hiding behind her sensible clothes she portrays the perfect image of Miss Prim and Proper and Alex vows to unlock the passionate woman he remembers. Mixing business with pleasure has never been so much fun.</strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong><strong>Kitty Jenkins’ orderly life gets turned upside down when Alex walks into her school. Their passion filled night four years ago has left her with a secret that threatens to tear them apart. Giving into Alex is out of the question, regardless of how much her body craves his touch.</strong></strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong><strong>When secrets spill and disaster strikes, can their passion turn into love?</strong></strong><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Excerpt (Adult-rated, 18+):<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Kitty’s heart beat a strange staccato against her breastbone. What had possessed her to slip back into her school girl outfit, she would never know. Yet here she was, dressed like some third-rate hooker, about to embark on a one night stand. Taking a deep, fortifying breath, she knocked on the door of Alex’s hotel room. All was quiet on the other side, and she was just about to turn round when the door opened; and Kitty’s greeting stuck in her throat.</p>
<p>Dressed in nothing but low riding jeans, Alex smiled at her, and she hastily wrenched her eyes upwards from the incredible abs on display. Covered with a light dusting of chest hair that trailed down to his jeans, they would give any model a run for his money, and Kitty swallowed. Dressed he was bad enough, but like this he was breathtaking, and judging by that lazy smile he knew it, too.</p>
<p>“Room service around here just keeps on getting better.” Alex’s husky voice raised goose bumps on her exposed skin. “Coming in?”</p>
<p>He hooked one finger under her chin and tugged the end of her shirt tails with the other hand, forcing her to take a step toward him.</p>
<p>“I-I shouldn’t be here, really. I’m not sure why I’m even here.” Kitty mumbled the words, and heat spread into her cheeks.</p>
<p>Alex merely smiled and pulled her closer still. “Liar, we both know why you’re here. Question is, my naughty little girl, will you step through the door and expand your curriculum?” Alex’s heated whispers against her ear sent her heart into overdrive, and she leant into his warmth.  His clean, male scent wrapped itself round her senses, and her stomach flip-flopped in delicious anticipation. It had been so long since any man had held her. That had to be the reason for her immediate reaction to this man.</p>
<p>“Well, Sir, that all depends what you have in mind, because I have been very naughty.”</p>
<p>Alex went very still at her breathy statement, and Kitty bit her lip. Has she read this wrong? Was he not up for a little role-play? She hesitantly raised her eyes to his face to read his expression, and the heat in his gaze scorched her skin.</p>
<p>“So, I’ve heard. Come here, and take your punishment.” His deep voice had dropped several octaves, and he grabbed her by the wrist and spun her into the room. The door clicked shut, the sound loud in the quiet room, and before she could even blink, he had her pinned against the wall. One jeans clad thigh spread her legs wide, and he raised her hands high above her head, whilst his other hand blazed a trail of heat along her exposed tummy. His mouth claimed hers in a bruising kiss, and she opened to his quiet demand automatically. His tongue found hers in an erotic dance that left her jelly-legged, breathless, and grateful for his big body holding her up against the wall.</p>
<p>He groaned his approval when she kissed him back, and he deepened the kiss, his fingers slowly slipping south, until they dipped under the elastic of her thong.</p>
<p>“My, you are a naughty girl. What have we here?”</p>
<p>He chuckled into her neck, and Kitty gasped when he thrust one finger into her wet core.</p>
<p>“So wet already, and we’ve only just started.” He flicked her clitoris once, and the slight pain caused a renewed burst of moisture to coat his fingers as he inserted another finger into her and found her g-spot. Kitty moaned into his shoulder as sensations built deep inside her core, and he licked himself down the column of her throat towards her breast. She screamed when he bit one nipple through the shirt and bra and thrust her hips at him, desperate to reach the release his talented fingers were driving her toward.</p>
<p>“Not so fast. You’re being punished, remember.”</p>
<p>Alex smiled and withdrew his fingers.  He licked each digit in turn, murmuring his approval and then stepped back, his heated gaze roaming over her body. Kitty clenched her thighs together in a vain effort to relieve the hot ache in her pussy.</p>
<p>“Spread your legs, naughty girl.” Alex growled the demand, and Kitty’s eyes widened at the steely determination she saw in his face. “You will not come until I give you permission. Do you hear me?”</p>
<p>“Yes.”  <em>Good God, does that porn star voice really belong to me?</em></p>
<p>Alex’s eyes narrowed, and Kitty automatically dropped her gaze. She licked her lips, seeing the huge erection straining the flies of his jeans. <em>Oh my.</em> He was clearly as turned on as she by their little game. But how far would he take this? And did she trust him enough to find out?</p>
<p>“Yes, what?” His deep voice held an edge of steel, and she bit back her moan. That voice alone would send her over the edge. Who’d have thought a little role-play could be so erotic?</p>
<p>“Yes, Sir.”</p>
<p>“Good girl. Now strip – slowly.”</p>
<p>Alex’s voice brooked no argument, and Kitty hastened to comply. She fumbled with the tails of her blouse until Alex stepped forward and ripped the thing clean off her.</p>
<p>“Not that slowly.”</p>
<p>His eyes wicked, he unhooked her bra and sent that, too, flying. He whistled his approval as her breasts fell free. He cupped each mound in turn, and spun her around and toward the double bed, which took up one side of the hotel room. The slap on her ass took her by surprise, and she yelped. He soothed the sting with his large hand massaging her ass cheeks, and he chuckled into her neck.</p>
<p>His fingers once again dipped into her wet folds, and she froze when he inserted one digit, slick with her juices, into her anus.  Heaven help her, that felt way too good. Heat spread across her skin, and Alex bit into her earlobe, as his fingers continued their erotic dance in and out of her forbidden passage, and her body betrayed her arousal by a renewed gush of moisture between her legs.</p>
<p>“That’s my naughty girl.” Alex’s erratic breathing into her neck pitched her own arousal sky high, and she put up no resistance when he urged her onto the bed, his naked, warm, torso heating her back.</p>
<p>“Get on all fours for me.”</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m especially excited about today&#8217;s Six Sentence Sunday, because I can finally share a little piece of my upcoming release, <strong><em>Educating Ethan</em></strong>. This older woman/younger man sensual romance will be available from Breathless Press Feb 24th:</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-541" title="Educating Ethan Cover" src="http://jenniferlynne.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/12/EducatingEthan600x900-Cover-200x300.jpg" alt="Educating Ethan Cover" width="200" height="300" />***</p>
<p>How had she doubted that this chemistry was one-sided? She&#8217;d seen the evidence of his interest yesterday in her kitchen, and she could sense it again now, without looking down this time, as she took in the heat of his gaze and the taut strength of the body leaning in toward her. She could almost smell the musky scent of arousal, though she was unsure whether that was coming from him or her. Maybe it was a combination of both. Her body responded to his closeness with a trembling anticipation, and she felt over-sensitized, like a guitar string  pulled too tight. If he were to strum his thumb across her skin one more time, she might just come apart beneath his hands.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Today&#8217;s interview is with author Cynthia Woolf. She reveals the exciting new cover for her latest book, <em>Centauri Midnight</em>, and offers a generous giveaway to two lucky commenters &#8211; a paperback or digital copy of <em>Centauri Series </em>book 1, <em>Centauri Dawn</em>, and a paperback or digital copy of <em>Centauri Midnight</em>.<br />
</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-649" title="Centauri Midnight Cover" src="http://jenniferlynne.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/centauri_midnight_cover-200x300.jpg" alt="Centauri Midnight Cover" width="201" height="304" />Jen:  How did you get started writing?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  I wrote my first story when I was about ten.  It was a romance about me and a little boy I liked.  I also wrote some very depressing poetry.  I decided that poetry was not for me and stuck to romance.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What genre(s) do you write in, and why?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  I have a historical western romance and a sci-fi romance out now.  The sci-fi is the first in a series.  I write in these genres because they are the ones whose stories reached out to me.  The western was the first book I wrote and was inspired by my parents&#8217; love story.  It’s set on the same ranch that they met on in 1941.  My book is set in 1885, so it’s not their love story.  My dad was a cowboy and trapper but to the best of my knowledge was never a bounty hunter.</p>
<p>The sci-fi series was done because of dreams I had when I was a teenager.  I knew I was a princess from Alpha Centauri.  There was no way I could belong to the crazy family I had.  Of course, I adore that crazy family now.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What movie best describes your life?  Why?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  I think <em>Romancing the Stone </em>best describes my life.  It’s just one crazy misstep after another, but I got my happy ending.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What inspired your latest book?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  <em>Centauri Twilight </em>is the second book in the <em>Centauri </em>series.  I used to dream that I was a princess from Alpha Centauri, that was the basis for <em>Centauri Dawn</em>, book 1 in the series.</p>
<p>Book 2 is much darker.  Lara is the twin sister of Audra in book 1.  Lara has been a sex slave since she was a child.  Having escaped, she’s now an outlaw and working to free the rest of the slaves who are now her people.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What is your favorite part of writing?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  My favorite part is what I call the ‘puking’ phase.  Just getting it all down on paper for the first time.  You just let if flow out of you, not caring, for the moment, if it is good or bad.</p>
<p><em>(Jen: LOL, I love that description!).</em></p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What is your least favorite part of writing?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  Editing is my least favorite.  I’m constantly questioning myself and my work.  Changing it, correcting it, putting it back to what it was and starting it all again.  It’s never good enough for me.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What is your next project and when will it be released?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  My next book is called <em><strong>Centauri Midnight</strong> </em>and is the third book in the <em>Centauri </em>series.  It will be released in January 2012.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What is your typical day like?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  I don’t know that I have a typical day.  I’m lucky enough to be able to write full time.  I was laid off in June and am taking advantage of it to write while I look for another job.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  How much time do you spend promoting your books?</strong> <strong>What works best for you?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  I spend a lot of time promoting my books.  A minimum of two hours per day.  Usually more but it is in 15 or 20 minute increments throughout the day, not in one big chunk.  Between Facebook, Twitter, blogging, putting announcements on loops, etc., I spend a lot of time doing it.  So far, blogging seems to get me the biggest bump in  my sales.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  How has your experience with self-publishing been?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  My experience has been wonderful.  I highly recommend it for everyone out there who doesn’t want to be constrained by the “big” traditional publisher.  For everyone who wants to write from their heart and not according to the industry rules and constraints, self publishing is the only way to go.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  Where do you get the ideas for your stories?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  I have ideas from everywhere.  My sci-fi series is from my dreams as a teenager.  My western was inspired by my parents own meeting and love story.  I place <em>Tame A Wild Heart </em>about 60 years earlier than when my parents met but the setting on a ranch is the same.  My dad was a real cowboy and my mom was what we would call a nanny now.  They were called nursemaids then.</p>
<p><strong>Jen:  What advice do you have for other authors wanting to self-publish?</strong></p>
<p>CW:  Go for it.  It’s a wild ride but totally worth it.</p>
<p>Please join me in thanking Cynthia for visiting with us today by leaving a comment on her interview. You&#8217;ll go in the draw to WIN a paperback or digital copy of <em>Centauri Dawn</em>, book 1 in her <em>Centauri </em>series, or <em>Centauri Midnight</em>.</p>

<p><strong>Not quite musk, not quite spice, but altogether it was heady and enticing.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“Like someone bottled pheromones and sprayed you with it,” she muttered, wanting to bury herself deeper in his embrace.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“You like it, of course,” he said, and now it was Jeannie’s turn to laugh, at that supreme confidence.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“I love it,” she admitted, and at her words the aroma intensified around her, as if she were immersed in a sensual river, almost drowning in pleasure. Her knees buckled as erotic images began to assail her. Images of herself crammed between Jake and Pothos, the three of them somehow entwined on the sand, moaning and rutting and taking it in turns to love each other in the silvery light of the moon.</strong></p>

<p align="left"><strong>His fingers closed over the silver sculpture and he saw the shudder run through her as he caressed it, sweeping down one curving line and back up again, shifting his grip, releasing it, touching again, feather-light caresses as she closed her eyes and moaned from deep within her throat.</strong></p>
<p><strong> “So you feel that?” The roughness in his voice betrayed how hard it was to remain in control as she lay on the floor, arms and legs flung out in abandon, tendrils of hair going in all directions. He thought he had never before seen anything – or anyone – so beautiful.</strong></p>

<p>Blurb:</p>
<p>Three people. One erotic fantasy. And a twentieth wedding anniversary like no other.</p>
<p>Jeannie yearns for the return of passion in her marriage. Jake craves new excitement in the form of another man. Pothos is one of the erotes, an aspect of Eros, the ancient Greek god of love, and this couple’s distinctive yearning has called to him. By the power of the erotes he intends to rekindle the flame of Jake and Jeannie’s passion in a night of desire that will be the ultimate platinum anniversary gift.</p>
<p>And when the gods of love decide your marriage needs a boost, they never do it by halves.</p>
<p><em>Platinum Passion <strong><em><strong></strong></em></strong></em>is the first in my <em>Gods of Love<strong><em> </em></strong></em>series  of stand-alone novellas  with a common theme straight out of Greek  mythology. The erotes are  Olympian gods of love and desire, children of  Aphrodite and aspects of  the primal god, Eros. They include Pothos –  god  of sexual yearning,  Himeros – god of sexual desire, and Anteros –  god of unrequited/requited  love.</p>

<p><a href="http://store.samhainpublishing.com/risk-it-p-6534.html"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-569" title="Risk It_cover" src="http://jenniferlynne.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Risk-It_cover2-200x300.jpg" alt="Risk It_cover" width="200" height="300" /></a>It’s so easy to let life get in the way, isn’t it? No matter where you live or what you do, the obligations of everyday life can keep us so busy that the important things get pushed aside. It’s not that we don’t want to do them. It’s not that we don’t think they’re important. And we’ll get to them – really – as soon as we have the time.</p>
<p>My writing was like that for a long time. Growing up, I knew I wanted to be a writer. I wrote poems and short stories, always scribbling something in an ever-present notebook. But I got married young, had two children, a full time job, a house to take care of, and I’d fall into bed exhausted. I just didn’t have the time to write. I can relate to Amy, the heroine in RISK IT, all too well.</p>
<p>It was only when my daughter graduated from college and my son graduated from high school in the same year that I took back the time for me to write. Since then I’ve published or contracted a total of 19 novels, novellas and short stories. And though my life is still busy with husband and house and full time job, I’m still writing. I make the time. It’s important to me.</p>
<p>I wish I’d done it sooner.</p>
<p>RISK IT, my latest release from Samhain, is #2 in the Paolo’s Playhouse series. FLAUNT IT was released in Aug 2011. BIRTHDAY GIRL will be released next month, and PLAYTHING, the final story in the series will be available in May 2012.</p>
<p>Here’s the blurb:</p>
<p><strong>On the outside, Amy has the American dream. Two busy kids, a job she loves, a big house thanks to her husband’s climb up the corporate ladder. What she hasn’t had in a long time…is sex. Sure, she’s too exhausted at night to think about it, but maybe Will’s long hours at work aren’t the real reason he rarely touches her anymore.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Feeling her marriage teetering on the edge, she rents the voyeur room at Paolo’s Playhouse. Maybe bringing back the memory of the one wicked thing they used to do together will relight the sparks.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Will loves his wife, but she’s never been one to take chances—except for the time before kids, when they’d camp out in a club’s back booth, getting all worked up watching the dirty dancers. Their careers have seriously cut into their “us” time, and if she’s booked them a sexual playroom, it sounds like she’s serious about solving the problem.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>When Will shows up way, <em>way </em>late, Amy wonders why she bothered, and if her plan to relight the flame has only made it painfully clear that it’s too late to try.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p>Excerpt:</p>
<p><strong>The door opened again. Paolo stepped into the room. “Your husband has not arrived?”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>She took a deep, shaky breath. “No.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>He sat down in the chair beside her. “It is difficult to wait, isn’t it?” She nodded, looking down at her hands, clasped in her lap. “Especially for someone you care for so much.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Amy nodded again. She thought she heard a touch of pain in his voice. Perhaps this handsome man had had his share of heartbreak. Maybe he did understand.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“I…um, I was really looking forward to this evening. We have two children and busy jobs, and we don’t get much time alone.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“People like you and your husband are the very reason the Playhouse was started,” he said smoothly. “There are not many safe places for people to indulge in a private fantasy. Or to try something new. To take a risk.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Sometimes risks didn’t pay off. Paolo must be an expert at this fantasy thing, must see tons of people come and go. As he calmly sat there beside her, not judging but supporting, she found herself pouring out her troubled thoughts.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“It’s not that I don’t like sex. I <em>do.</em> But why can’t he understand that I get so tired? I work all day and come home to the kids and dinner and homework and laundry, and by the time I fall into bed, sex is the last thing on my mind!” Her hand flew to her mouth, as if she could take back that outpouring of words. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to go off like that.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“It’s all right. But you know, of course, that you must make time for each other.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“But he’s just as bad. He’s been working all these long hours lately and comes home just in time to go to bed and then expects a quickie before he rolls over and goes to sleep.” Like last night. “What am I supposed to do?”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“My answer is the same. You must make your time together as important as your careers or your children or your laundry.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Easier said than done. But… “I love him.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“Of course you do. And you’re here to make things better, right? This playroom, the blue room, it has a special meaning for you both?”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“I thought it did, but it looks like I’ve been stood up.” Obviously, this night alone together didn’t mean anything to Will.</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Paolo took her hand. “I’m certain your husband wanted to be here.” He glanced at his watch. “Perhaps you would like to reschedule?”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“No.” Why couldn’t they wait a little longer? “Oh, I suppose the other couple has…”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>“Yes, they’ve already started.”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>She rose to her feet. The hell with Will anyway. Postponing it until another night wasn’t going to make any difference. She flashed Paolo a shaky smile. “Well, I don’t want to miss that. Could you take me to the playroom now, please?”</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
