The Novelty Girls

Oh and HAPPY EARTH DAY!!

Children of the Goddess Book One

When she arrives at Ye Olde Haven Pub, the sanctuary for Trueblood Vampires, Regina is wounded and desperate. Her only thought is to save the Deva Clan, her family, from the dangerous Loups De L’Ombre, the Shadow Wolves. She knows she will not exactly be welcomed with open arms. She is, after all, an Unborn, the lowest caste of Vampire.

As a natural born from the purest line, Zander Sariel knows the rules are sacrosanct-a Trueblood mates with his own kind. But one taste of the young Unborn is all Zander needs to know that rules were made to be broken.

With enemies at every turn, Zander risks everything to save Regina from the monster that hunts her, his own kind’s ignorance and-if he must-her lack of faith in her own unique abilities.

Only together do they have a chance to defeat the shadow that haunts their future, and save their entire race from extinction.

Warning, this title contains the following: explicit sex, voyeurism of an m/m/f ménage…a plethora of vampire nookie.

Graduate student Rebecca Small is so obsessed with the past—especially the Golden Age of Piracy—she doesn’t mind her unglamorous job preparing museum displays. This display is about her favorite subject, James Morrow, a famous pirate who mysteriously disappeared without a trace.

Becca touches the pirate’s antique sword, and finds herself on a ship in the middle of a sword fight, saving the sexy captain from being stabbed in the back—literally. Once the smoke clears, the man who claims he’s her husband is more than eager to reward her for her timely assistance.

James Morrow knows very little about the woman he was forced to marry five years ago, but the woman who saved him doesn’t fit the portrait he’s painted of her in his mind. She’s strong, brave, and submits to his every dark desire. She seems the perfect woman for a pirate, but he makes his living among the dishonest and disreputable—trust isn’t a commodity he trades in

Warning, this title contains the following: Explicit sex, graphic language, anal sex, violence, light bondage, spanking, the occasional hot wax scene, and a string of pearls going where no jewels have gone before. You’re welcome!

Wahoo!!

Lifting the Veil, the first book I ever wrote, my first acceptance etc. is coming out tomorrow at Ellora’s Cave! It feels like a milestone somehow. When I submitted it to EC September 22, 2006, I had no idea that my life would change so dramatically. That a year and a half later I would still be doing this. That I would have written another five books and be working on three more. That I would meet all of these fascinating and talented people. All these friends and mentors.

I feel incredibly blessed. I’m chatting today with a few of my friends at EC chat group. Giving away books and trying to pretend its not tax day, or that a good chunk of my friend base isnt winging their way to beautiful downtown Pittsburgh. Come visit me!

And in case you havent seen it a million times-my book and blurb!

When Meru Tanner receives a mysterious birthday present, The Book of Veils, her world is turned upside down. Now she’s “seeing” things that aren’t supposed to be real, gabbing with gods—and having erotic premonitions about one sexy wolf-man she’d do anything to tame.

Can she accept the legacy handed down to her from the distant past and convince her Lycan to be a part of her future? Or will the ancient evil that threatens to destroy their world keep them from making a new beginning together?

So, I’m not feeling so hot today–or really for the last week–and I broke down and finally made a doctor’s appointment. I have a special place of loathing in my heart for doctors (sorry if you are one), so it takes a lot to get me to one. In honor of that, I’m poking fun at the physician today.

Y’all, I am so not joking.

I call to check and see if my credit card payment cleared the other day and the system is all done by voice now. So I say my card number and it makes me repeat it. Figuring I just talked too fast, I said it slower. No dice. Okay. Needs to be slower and well enunciated apparently. Um yeah right. I finally gave up and waited till I could check it online. But then a few days later I get a late notice on a bill, check my bank and the check’s cleared, and have to call that company. Oh. My. Freaking. Gawd. After the fourth try to make stupid computer guy understand my account number I finally got transfered to a real live person. Who tells me yes. There have been complaints about the system. Apparently it doesn’t like some accents. Why do they keep using it? To save money of course.

You just can’t make this stuff up.

I’m waiting for the day I can instant message with issues but until then maybe I need to go into speech therapy. Or spend a lot of frustrated time on the phone if I have a billing issue. Corporate America isn’t nearly well prepared enough for all the pissed off phone calls they’ll be getting from the South.

So, someone showed me the creepiest video of all time, and of course, I visited the horror of it upon R.G.

Neither of us have been able to stop watching.

See for yourself.

And along the same lines (you might have seen these before), but slightly less creepy:
