Okay, so yesterday I promised you guys a couple of glimpses into the upcoming stories in Spellbinding. Are you ready? Because here we go!

 

 

BOUND IN BLUE

Spellbinding book 2

 

Rachel may be a blue witch, but she’s definitely not going to let that rule her life. Her art is much more important than joining a coven and fighting the so-called Darkness, if they even exist, which she doubts. Taking a summer job as an art teacher and counselor at a motivational camp is just what she needs to focus on her art and discover what she really wants out of life.

It’s just Hunter’s luck that he draws the short straw this year. The Chicago lawyer has managed to avoid working at his boss’s yuppie motivational camp for the past three years, but if he wants to make partner, he’s got to suck it up and work as the camp’s legal advisor and counselor. The experienced Dom isn’t exactly the roughing-it type, but he’ll do what he has to do for his dream job.

Catching a glimpse of the beautiful Rachel skinny-dipping under the light of the full moon, Hunter is determined to take her to his dungeon. But their torrid connection is threatened when people begin to disappear. When Rachel discovers that the Darkness are real, and she’s their intended target, she’ll be forced to chose between the coven life she’d spurned and the man she’s dying to belong to.

 

 

 

 

WANTING IN WHITE

Spellbinding Book 3

 

Morgan the white witch has had enough. Her familiar is a bird-brain (quite literally) her career is in the toilet, and her coven is full of party-girls who can’t focus on keeping the Darkness at bay. Added to the fact that her love life is as empty as the Arizona desert, and you’ve got a woman who needs a helluva lot more than a vibrator to ease her frustrations.

Caleb’s got a lot on his mind as well. The undercover FBI agent is working to unveil a drug trafficking ring over the border, and the delectable Morgan is an unwelcome distraction. If his overwhelmed libido ruins his mission, there’ll be hell to pay.

Getting involved with Caleb, while completely delicious, becomes more and more dangerous when she realizes that he’s involved with a drug cartel. And when Morgan discovers that the criminals have deep ties to the Darkness that she’s sworn to fight, she’ll have to decide whether to be loyal to her coven or to the man who has her heart.

CiC Blog Tour Day 5 – Meet LUGH!

10 Feb

CiC Release Blog Tour Graphic

 

 

Hello hello! And welcome to Day 5 of the Caught in Crimson release blog tour!

Us writers are SUPER BUSY people. Almost without exception. So when Stacey Kennedy, my gal-pal and almost blog hostess today, sent me a panicked email that she was double booked, I didn’t stress! I just decided to plop my post up here, with the additional verbage HEY, go visit Stacey’s blog and enter to win her newest book, THE CAT’S MEOW. Double the chance to win AWESOME new witch books? Yes Please!

And now for today’s post. I have to admit, the character we’re talking about today is my very favorite. Don’t get me wrong, I ADORE both Delia and Adam, and Ravenna is very good too. But this character? He’s phenomenal. He’s dynamic. He’s intelligent. He’s powerful. He’s sarcastic. He’s witty. He’s…

CHARACTER SPOTLIGHT: Lugh

All witches in the world of Spellbinding have a familiar. These magical creatures are locked into the physical form of a common animal, to blend in. There are the typical cats, ravens, snakes, usual animals that you’d think of when it comes to witches, but Lugh’s a little different.
Lugh is a cream-colored toy poodle.
Named after a Celtic deity, Lugh has a rather inflated opinion of himself. But it’s justly deserved. He’s fiercely loyal to Delia, he’s tough, and he’s pretty damn magical in his own right. He’s been with Delia since she was young, and since familiars don’t age, he’s still as snarky as he ever was.
Lugh’s not too big on the whole question thing. I tried, but he refused to cooperate. So, instead of our Q&A, here’s a little excerpt to give you a taste of Lugh.

The apartment door slammed with a dull thud. “Lugh, this is all your fault.”
What do you mean? All I did was to give you two some privacy. Lugh’s fuzzy tail wagged slowly.
Delia launched herself at the couch, connecting face-first with the cushions, with a solid whumph. “You gave me to that Neanderthal on a fricking silver platter. You were supposed to stay there with me, remind me why it was a bad idea to sleep with him again.”
Neanderthal? You liked everything he did to you. Lugh sniggered.
Delia rocketed upright. “You watched us? You dirty dog! And he most definitely did not treat me like a gentleman should. He tied me up with the damn seat belt.”
So what if I watched? You’ve seen me poop. Privacy clearly isn’t something either of us understands. And from where I was sitting, you seemed to enjoy the seat belt bondage. So that argument really isn’t going to fly. Lugh jumped onto the couch and stared Delia dead in the eye. She squirmed. You need a consort. He needs a woman. This is perfect.
“It is most definitely not perfect. He doesn’t get me, doesn’t understand the whole witch thing.” Delia stood and paced through the living room, absentmindedly stepping over a tall pile of shoes she’d been meaning to cart off to Goodwill for a few months. “I need to go out, find a guy who’s a better fit for a consort.”
Lugh yawned. Seemed like you two fit together pretty well to me. But whatever. I’m just the furry familiar, what the fuck do I know?
Delia scowled and went to the bedroom to change. Lugh was wrong, totally and completely. Adam would never fit into the role of consort. He was, well, just too much.
 
 

Okay, so what do you think of Lugh? Got any questions about him? Any questions FOR him? If you promise him Chicken McNuggets, he just might answer them!

Release Limerick Birthday Bash!

14 Jul

Okay, so I’ve been on vacation for the last seven days. With my husband and my parents. What a long, strange trip it’s been. :)

No, no, it was good, just really long. And I’m beat, because I had to do ALL. THE. DRIVING.

 

The mountains are frightening to some people.

 

So, the upshot is, I completely forgot I had an upcoming release. INDELIBLY INTIMATE came out yesterday. Woohoo!!!

 

And today is my birthday. I spent about four hours of it driving home.

 

So, while husband fetches me some takeout Chinese for my birthday dinner, who wants to win a free copy?

Leave me a haiku or a limerick below. I’ll leave this open until Monday at 8:00pm EST, and then my favorite will get a free ebook copy of INDELIBLY INTIMATE.

 

And come on guys, be creative. It IS my birthday. :)

Come Together, Right Now- How I do Erotic Horror (part 4)

17 Apr

Welcome back, leiblings! Sorry for the gap between postings. Life gets in the way sometimes! If you’re just now joining us, here are parts One, Two, and Three of this series. I’m sharing how I wrote my first erotic horror, in hopes that someone will find this interesting. If not, well, just skip to the bottom, comment and tell me so, and you’ll still be entered to win stuff. Sound good? Thought so.

So when last I blathered on, I’d told you about building the ideas. I’ve got a half-formed hero, a mostly put together heroine, and a creepy giant question mark for the villain. But this is an EROTIC horror. By definition, there needs to be an erotic journey to go along with the horror journey. I’d spent all my time thus far on the horror, so it was time to focus on the erotic side.

I’d gotten Verum and Bryerly alone in the same room. In order for the bow-chicka-wow-wow to begin, something had to change pretty drastically, and fast. Bry has just witnessed the brutal killing of a woman. She’s not in the mood for love, if you know what I mean. BUT Verum has a weapon at his disposal, and I had zero problems utilizing it- the truth.

What if, I thought to myself, Verum’s presence had sort of a truth-uncovering-aura about it? What if Bryerly was more aware of things just by being near him? What if the physical attraction she felt when meeting Verum couldn’t be hidden? What if he reciprocated that attraction?

If a normal person cannot suppress how turned on they are, wouldn’t their inhibitions fly out the window? Why yes, I thought. Yes they would. So a girl like Bryerly, who isn’t the type to fall in bed with a man she just met, would have less of a problem following her instincts. Luckily for Verum (and me!) this technique worked. When she started focusing on the way she was feeling instead of the horrifying memories, the intimacy turned into a life-affirming self discovery.

Okay, love scene problem solved! We had a gory murder, and now a smexy bedroom scene. So let’s get back to the scary, eh? I still have Rafe to think about. Why is he such an asshole? Why did he and his friend kill a woman in the woods at night, and have blood on their faces? What could it have to do with Bryerly and Verum?

It’ll be tough to explain without spoilers, but I’ll give it my best shot in part 5, the final section of this series!

And don’t forget, be sure to leave a comment below! To show how much I appreciate each and every one of my blog commenters, I’ll be adding each of your names from now until SINFUL TRUTH releases into a hat. Comment on multiple blog posts?
