It's my first paranormal and I have to confess to being a little nervous about it, but I was thrilled when it was accepted. And then I found out some of the other amazing authors who I'll be sharing book space with and I was floored! I'm so honoured to be part of this terrific group. So without further ado, I give you a cover!</span><br />

<span style="font-family: inherit;">The Alpha lives for the hunt...</span></div>
<span style="font-family: inherit;">
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Driven by instinct, an Alpha shifter recognizes his fated mate from one scent, one touch. He'll pursue his woman, regardless of the cost, and anyone else would be smart to get out of his way. He won't stop until he takes possession of his prize.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="margin-bottom: 6px; margin-top: 6px;">
Although the hunter doesn't need convincing, his mate certainly does. The Alpha will have to prove himself as a lover and convince his woman that he plays for keeps.<br />

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We're on the cusp of a new year and looking back, 2016 had its ups and downs, though it frequently seemed that there were </span><span style="font-size: large;">more downs than ups. That means, though, that next year will be better. And I'm going to do the best I can to make it better.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I've talked about New Year's Resolutions before and if you're anything like me, they barely make it into the second week of January before something happens to throw them off. For example, I sat down at the computer tonight intending to transcribe some writing I had done in my notebook, and instead I've written two blog posts and played on Canva for an hour. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">At any rate, I do have some writing goals for this year. I hesitate to give timelines because I feel awful if I miss something, but here they are:</span><br />
<br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Finish and submit Losing It Two At A Time (Losing It #4).</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Write a submission for Evernight's next anthology, Owned By the Alpha.</span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: large;">Finally finish that damn werewolf biker book I've had sitting on my computer for years! </span></li>
</ol>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Of course, if I can get more writing done that would be fantastic, but I'm trying to be realistic. And positive. I'm my own worst critic and that never helps anything.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Have you got any resolutions for 2017? How do you stay positive when you struggle? I'd love to hear from you!</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">And Happy New Year!</span></div>

<br />
So right now, I have an important thing to do for the EDJ. And instead, I'm feeling the urgent need to catch up on Facebook and Twitter, check out new types of swag to giveaway, and blog. In short, I'm procrastinating.<br />
<br />
The lovely cartoon above sums me up perfectly. I start with the best intentions, but somewhere along the way my plans get derailed.<br />
<br />
I've always known I was a procrastinator, but I still struggle to understand why. With this particular report I have to do, I'm pretty sure it's because I'm overwhelmed and feeling like I don't know jack. A bit of perfectionism is thrown in there because I hate not being perfect. Don't we all?<br />
<br />
But procrastination in itself is not necessarily a bad thing. I needed to catch up on FB and Twitter. I need to find swag. I need to do more blog posts. Never mind that they're not the most important thing I have to do - they still needed doing.<br />
<br />
I think that's the key. If you have to procrastinate, make it productive. I know so many people who procrastinate by cleaning the house (I think they're weird, but hey), or taking the dog out for a walk, or going grocery shopping. All of those things need to be done.<br />
<br />
I'll get to the report <strike>after this blog post</strike> <strike>after supper</strike> <strike>before bed</strike> eventually. It will get done. But in the meantime, I'm going to go colour.<br />
<br />
What's your go-to procrastinating job? How do you get yourself back to what you're supposed to be doing? I'd love to hear your thoughts!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03703630647274969749noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6287725051702791942.post-62120749167946068972016-12-03T11:58:00.000-05:002016-12-03T13:23:49.784-05:00Revitalization<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
When an urban area becomes old and run down, nobody wants to go there. Residents and businesses leave, and shadier characters begin to move in. Buildings fall into disrepair from neglect. Kind of like my writing career.<br />
<br />
But if some enterprising souls come along and begin to work on the area again -- slowly, one project at a time -- it breathes new life into the community. As more improvements are made, more people return to the area and soon it's a vibrant destination rather than something to be avoided.<br />
<br />
The process is called revitalization and it has some lessons that I've been able to apply to myself. How is this happening for me?<br />
<br />
I had two stories published this year: one in the <a href="https://michellegrahameroticromance.blogspot.ca/p/other-books.html" target="_blank">Dark Captive: </a>Manlove Edition anthology, and another Romance On The Go title,<a href="https://michellegrahameroticromance.blogspot.ca/p/losing-it.html" target="_blank"> Losing It In the Closet</a>. Considering my last published work was 2 years ago, I was thrilled to have gotten those titles out. I've been writing more this year and it makes me so happy to be able to do that. I just have to work on time management so I can find more time to devote to something I love so much.<br />
<br />
Both of those books were recently nominated for the Evernight Readers' Choice Awards, to my surprise and delight. It appeared that there were people coming to visit my writing after all.<br />
<br />
A good friend, Kacey Hammell, invited me to blog with her and an amazing group of Canadian authors over at <a href="http://romancecanadianstyle.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank">Romance Eh? Canadian Style</a>. I gladly accepted the invitation as one more step in my revitalization process but realized that my own blog had suffered from neglect.<br />
<br />
Yesterday I spent several hours developing new branding; I designed a new logo and updated the design of my blog and other social media. I cleaned up some of the content here and fixed broken links as well as adding my latest releases. I'm pleased with the results and the new look made me feel a lot better.<br />
<br />
Then this morning I discovered that Losing It In the Closet had won the award for Best Romance On The Go!<br />
<br />
Things are looking up for sure. But revitalization isn't a solitary process. This wouldn't have been possible without the love and support of some amazing people along the way: my family, who have been learning to survive on cereal and take-out while I get stuff done; the amazing staff at Evernight Publishing who have been with me through the publishing process; writing friends that I had the pleasure of meeting this fall at an Evernight retreat; Kacey and the ladies at Romance Eh?<br />
<br />
And of course, my readers. Without you there would be no purpose to what I do. Thank you for being with me along this journey.<br />

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">Senior Corrections Officers Daniel
Norton is known as the Devil. His kingdom of hell is this prison. He worked
hard to get where he is in his career but his life is a lonely existence.
Seamus is a new shy and sexy recruit that has him questioning himself and his
future. Devil places Seamus in ‘the pit’ to keep him safe. He didn’t plan on
stripping the chained man and having sex. Is Devil becoming as bad as those he
guards or is there truly something between them?</span></div>

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
“I told you already.” I shifted to his left side, held his wrist and placed the
other cuff there.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0in;">

<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
“Oh but I am.” I said softly, staring down at Seamus. My breath came out in
puffs and rushed across his face. “The biggest kind.” My voice went down to a
whisper. “If I wasn’t already in charge of hell, I may just be heading there
today.” Then like the idiot I claimed I was, I kissed him. I shoved the door
closed with my foot and it loosened his chains. His arms fell to his sides with
a rattle. I forced his mouth open with mine. My tongue swept inside, along his
teeth and deeper still. The kiss was intense. I knew my lips would be red and
swollen from the sheer pressure but I couldn’t help myself. Seamus was an
irresistible temptation. I kept kissing him, falling deeper into the void and
then he leaned his body against mine. I swear I heard angels singing. Fucking
hell, it hadn’t been that long since my last fuck. I was acting like a randy
teenager. I pulled away and Seamus followed.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
“Please. Please.” He murmured and placed his lips back on mine.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
The kiss was just as wild. I held his head in my hands and angled to send my
tongue deep into his mouth. Seamus moaned and pressed harder against me. Shit,
I could feel just how horny he was. His cock pressed against the flimsy prison
pants and against my hip. I thrusted against him, forgetting everything but
that wonderful burst of pleasure from between my legs. I jostled my hands
between us and quickly unzipped my black uniform pants. My cock bounced out,
hard and beyond ready. I stopped kissing Seamus long enough to open the
buttons. His hair was silky soft against my fingertips. I grabbed handfuls and
forced him to his knees. Idiot flashed through my mind again but it was quickly
replaced by blowjob. I wanted this sexy redhead’s lips around my cock. Now.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
“Devil.” He moaned.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
The chains rattled as I gathered his wrists in one hand. I used the other to
direct his head. My dick was only inches from his mouth. I took a deep breath
as he opened wide. “Suck me.” It was an order, given with a harsh tone and no
chance of flexibility. Seamus was going to take my shaft into his mouth. There
was no negotiating. My tip was without foreskin so when his breath rushed over
it, I felt the tingle all through my body. My cock was stiff, pointing upward
like it was making a choice. My balls were low hangers, the left lower than the
right but they were still stuffed into my pants. Only my shaft was unconcealed
and ready to be slathered with saliva.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
Seamus closed the gap.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-top: 6.0pt; mso-layout-grid-align: none; mso-pagination: none; text-autospace: none; text-indent: 0in;">
<span style="color: #1a1a1a; font-size: 14.0pt;">
The groan that came out of my mouth was decided high pitched as he wrapped his
lips around my tip. I stared down, watching as he lathered the bulbous head
with his tongue and poked at my piss slit. “Yes. Yeah. Seamus.” I tugged his
hands higher, making them taunt and under my full control. Then I used my other
hand to pushed his head closer. My underside slid along his teeth, gently until
his mouth widened. I pushed inside without hesitation until I hit the back of
his throat then I eased back out. His tongue lapped at my hot, hard flesh for a
moment then his green eyes rolled up to stare at me. “Oh hell, I’m going to
fuck that pretty mouth so hard.” </span></div>

They'll stop at nothing to get what they want. And they have their sights on one woman. Possessive and bold, these heroes give their conquests exactly what they crave—to be taken … to be owned. Any resistance offered will be tested, but in the end love rules.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 22.4px; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 22.4px; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; display: inline; float: none; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 22.4px; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">Kidnapping, abduction, and sexual slavery are just a few of the titillating taboo themes in this hand-picked anthology.</span></span></span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #16191f;">After her mother passes away, Holly decides to finally
have a life away from her abusive father and the darkened, lifeless world she
lives in. But someone has been watching her, waiting for the right moment to
take her away. It’s when she comes face-to-face with her captor that she
realizes he won’t let her go.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #16191f;">Will Holly stay with a man that decrees she’s his,
that he’ll do whatever it takes to make her see they belong together? Despite
the twisted and dark nature of it all, she feels freedom for the first time in
her life. Will she give in, or will she accept what he offers her … her life
back?</span></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">“You had no right to take me away.”</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">“You were running,” he said without apology.
“I didn’t take you away from anything.” He stood and walked over to the
kitchen, opened the freezer, and grabbed a bottle of alcohol out. He took two
glasses next and came back to the table. Nothing was said as he poured clear
liquid into those glasses. He pushed one to her, took the other for himself,
and while looking at her, tossed it back, drinking it in one swallow.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">She looked down at the alcohol, and without
thinking, because this was so fucked up, she grabbed the glass and drank it, as
well. It burned going down, and made her already teary eyes water even more,
but she welcomed the flash of heat it caused in her veins.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">“I may have been running, but you had no right
to take me, to think you knew what I wanted.” She was the one to hold her
ground now. “You took me to satisfy things on your end.”</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">Where is this strength coming from? He’s
dangerous. Just look at him, and you can see it.</span></i><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">She saw the way his jaw clenched, the
tightness of his body, and knew she might have crossed the line with her words.
Holly knew nothing about him, or what he was capable of.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">He’s capable of stalking me, of taking me
away. He’s capable of hurting people and clearly having no remorse. I have no
doubts he would have no trouble killing someone that crossed his path.</span></i><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">“Watch it, Holly.” His voice had gone cold, steely.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">She swallowed, a shiver working its way
throughout her whole body. She wanted to say “or what,” but kept her mouth
shut, being smart.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">“Or I might throw you over my knee and spank
that pretty ass until it’s purple and your pussy is wet.”</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">She felt her mouth go slack at his words. But
the most surprising, if not traitorous thing her body did, was react to his
words by heating, her pussy becoming wet, and her nipples hardening.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">“You’re insane,” she said and stood. She
glanced around the room, but didn’t know if she was running from him or what
she felt. She turned and saw the front door, ran toward it, but realized it had
some state of the art lock on it that was activated by fingerprints. He had his
hands on her waist only seconds later, the hold unforgiving. There was a little
bit of pain associated with his touch, but she found it arousing.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">She hated that fact, loathed herself for
getting turned on by this man when she should be screaming.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent: 48pt;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">“You can scream, but no one can hear you,
Holly.” He let those words sink in before continuing. She heard him inhale
right by her hair, and she found herself closing her eyes.</span><span style="color: #1a1a1a;"></span></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">
</span><div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #1a1a1a;">She was still breathing hard, but the need to
pass out had subsided. He turned her around but kept his body pressed right up
against hers. The feel of his erection against her belly was clear, and her
fear heightened that he may rape her.</span></span></div>

<br />
Having a pet is a wonderful thing. They don't care if you've put on extra weight or complain that the dishes aren't done or bitch at you for getting the wrong type of cereal. As long as you feed them and take care of their poop, they'll love you unconditionally.<br />
<br />
I prefer my pets cuddly. We tried fish once but that was a disaster (other than providing inspiration for my first book). Give me a dog or cat any day. I love it when the cat curls up on my lap or the dog jumps up on me the second I get home.<br />
<br />
Pets become a member of your family. We recently lost our cat because the poor thing's heart got too big and a blood clot went to his brain. It wasn't an easy time because it was sudden and because we loved him. Mourning for a pet can be almost as bad as for a person.<br />
<br />
But we are a family that needs pets, and so when a cousin told me her cat had had kittens, it was inevitable that we'd bring one home. Our new kitten is adorable and I love her but man is she a pain in the ass!<br />
<br />
As I write this, I have to stop every few words to remove her from my head or my chest because she's climbing all over me. For a while this morning the dog had her cornered between a chair and the entertainment centre and it was a nice break. I actually got some work done.<br />
<br />
The kitten also finds the laptop fascinating.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
First, she wanted to chase my fingers while I typed. Then she insisted on walking all over it. Finally, she just plunked herself down on it and went to sleep.<br />
<br />
Sigh.<br />
<br />
At the moment, I am having a brief reprieve because I realized her food dish was empty. That's tough because we have to put the dish up when the dog is out or she'll eat the cat food (the old cat got revenge by eating the dog food while staring defiantly at the dog in the crate) but then we forget to put it down again. Silly humans.<br />
<br />
In spite of the problems she's causing me, I still find it adorable when she sits on my shoulder and purrs in my ear. And her little kitty eyes melt my heart every time.<br />
<br />
Do your pets have any particularly annoying habits? What adorable features keep you from dropping them off in the country? I'd love to hear about it!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03703630647274969749noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6287725051702791942.post-7618201555207301082015-08-06T00:00:00.000-04:002015-08-06T00:00:02.322-04:00Meanwhile, In the Wilds of Ontario...<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This blog post is brought to you from the wilds of northern Ontario. No, not really. Thank God for scheduling blog posts!<br />
<br />
As this post goes live, I will be with hubby and the family visiting friends at their cottage. There is no internet, wi-fi, or even electricity. I'll let you know if I survive.<br />
<br />
Ever tried to unplug for a while? I hate not having a device in my hands, even if I'm only playing a game or reading. I don't have to be online, but the thought of no power is freaky. It's been a long time since I've been camping and the site is remote enough that there aren't any towns nearby. What the heck did people do with their time back in the old days?<br />
<br />
I suspect there will be hiking and swimming and campfires galore. I pray to successfully avoid poison ivy or any other sort of plant that will make me itch though I'm pretty sure I will be a smorgasbord for the mosquitoes.<br />
<br />
But maybe I'll be able to find some quiet time to just reflect and be inspired. I don't need electricity to write in a notebook. And it will be nice to have some time with the family where we're not all glued to a screen of some kind.<br />
<br />
If I'm completely honest though? The thing I'm most looking foward to is coming home! Catch you next week!<br />

<br />
<br />
I had to hang my head in shame when I realized it's been more than six months since I updated my blog. Yikes!<br />
<br />
I'm happy to say that while I didn't have a great start to the year, I've been writing more consistently since April. My alter ego had a story accepted to an anthology which was exciting since it's been a long time since I had a release.<br />
<br />
I decided to really examine my goals and see if I can take my career in a different direction. As a result, I've been querying editors and agents. I've had a couple of rejections, but I'm going to keep plugging away. The alter ego is preparing a story for submission though it isn't complete yet. But the most important thing I realized is that I have to just keep writing.<br />
<br />
Life has been challenging and I've been too hard on myself, making it harder to keep moving forward. But I am moving forward and that's a lot to celebrate. So if you're willing to hang in there with me, it would be very much appreciated.<br />
<br />

<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Michelle here. It's that time again - saying good-bye to another year and looking forward to the one ahead. There's so much I'd like to accomplish this year, but I've learned that sometimes you have to take it one day at a time.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">I didn't get much writing done in 2014. It was a rough year. My dad has been battling cancer and it's taken a toll on me and my family. In all honesty, we didn't think he'd make it to 2015, but he has and for that I'm grateful. But I realized how important writing has become to me because the less of it I do, the worse I feel. I've got all these stories and characters cluttering up my brain (and let's be honest, there's not a lot of space up there in the first place).</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">For 2015, I'd like to finish my Losing It series for Evernight. I got the first two books done and released, and partway through writing the third the EDJ got really hard, plus Dad got sick again and it faded into the background. I only need another 2k or so to finish #3 so I'd like to get that done by the end of January. I have two more planned beyond that.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">I started writing a story for Evernight's Uniform Anthology, but I didn't make the deadline, especially because I realized that the story I was trying to tell was too big. So I'd like to expand it and submit it sometime this year. Hopefully I'll be able to participate in some of the anthologies in 2015. It was a lot of fun to see my story in the Executive Assistant Anthology released in 2014.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;">Of course, some of my favourite authors have great new releases coming up this year that I'm going to have to find time to read! I bet a lot of you are facing the same dilemma.</span><br />
<span style="color: purple; font-size: large;"><b><br /></b>
<b>I'd love to hear about what you're looking forward to reading this year. Leave me a comment to tell me about it. I'll choose one commenter to receive a $10 Evernight gift certificate and their choice of one of my Evernight books.</b></span><br />

When single mom Serena Keegan finally gives in to her son's pleas for a pet, they decide that fish are the perfect option for their apartment lifestyle. They quickly discover that they have a lot to learn about their aquatic friends. Thankfully, Dalton's Aquariums and More! is there to help. The owners, identical twins Lance and Liam Dalton, both find themselves attracted to her. They are eager to provide her with the assistance she needs, for the pets and for more…personal matters.</div>

Serena’s past experience with men has been less than stellar, and she worries she and her son will end up hurt. Despite these fears, she finds herself falling for the sexy store owners, whose talents extend well beyond business. But Liam has a past he hasn't told her about, and when Serena finds out, it threatens their growing love.</div>

Justin Gauthier creates a unique blend of painting and photography. Melanie finds his youth and vigor intoxicating. David Hannah can sculpt provocative pieces from ordinary materials. And Melanie discovers that he is very good with his hands. Garrett Anderson’s paintings of BDSM are shocking and arousing. When Melanie asks about the lifestyle, he teaches her.</div>

Unemployed and running out of resources, Sophie LaPlante is desperate for a job when the perfect one appears before her. A wealthy couple from Hedon Falls requires a live-in housekeeper, and Sophie is just what they’re looking for.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0.9em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
Jack Sullivan, a powerful CEO and Dom, is married to actress Kendra Hughes. He immediately senses submissive tendencies in his new housekeeper. His wife can never be the sub he needs, so while Kendra is away on a film shoot, he begins to train Sophie. When Kendra returns, she joins the training to explore her own Dominant desires. While their sessions were not intended to involve sex, they find themselves fighting a losing battle against their mutual attraction.</div>

Stylist and salon owner Remy Alexander got a second chance at love when he found Seamus "Shay" O’Connell, but the more time he spends with his daughter’s dance teacher, Nicole, the more he wonders if there is room for another in his marriage.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0.9em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
As a result of a troubled past, Shay needs order and control in everything, from his work as a chef, to the bedroom he shares with his submissive husband. Remy’s idea to have a ménage relationship upsets the delicate balance Shay has created for himself, but he can’t deny his desire for the sexy dance instructor.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; font-family: verdana, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12px; margin-bottom: 0.9em; margin-top: 0.5em;">
Nicole Collins is a good Catholic girl who pours all her energy into her work as a dance teacher. When she falls for Remy and Shay, they teach her about passion, submission, and love, but incur the wrath of her father. Can Nicole find a way to hang on to everyone she loves, or will one relationship cost her the other?</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“We should turn out the lights,” Lauren said.
She’d rarely made love to her husband with the lights on. He liked to point out
the slight paunch of her tummy, the cellulite on her thighs, and any other
imperfection he could find. She liked Hank, and didn’t want him to be turned
off when he saw her naked.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Placing a finger under her chin, he tilted her
head up until she met his gaze. “I like to see the woman I’m making love to.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“But—”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“No buts. You’re a beautiful woman.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Still, Lauren hesitated. Hank kissed her again,
and she forgot about any objections as he stroked her back, her arms, her hips.
He slid the dress down until it fell to the floor in a heap. Then he took a
step back and looked her up and down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">When his gaze lingered on her chest, Lauren
fought the urge to cross her arms over her breasts. The corner of his mouth
turned up a bit. As she watched, he pulled off his tie, and then his shirt,
tossing both onto a chair. His pants joined a moment later and he stood before
Lauren wearing only his boxers, which did nothing to hide his erection. His
sizeable erection. She licked her lips, stomach quivering as he embraced her
again.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“Lie down on the bed.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Nodding, Lauren did as she was told. He climbed
on, knelt over her, and began to plant soft kisses along her neck. Sliding off
to lie beside her, he propped himself up on his elbow and looked down. Her
breath hitched when he traced the edge of her bra with his fingers. He ran them
along the bottom edge, up the straps, along the top of the cups. She longed for
him to take her breasts in his hands, growing more frustrated every time he got
close and then moved away. She wiggled a bit, hoping to force his hand, but he
withdrew completely.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“Did you want something?” Lauren could only
nod. “You have to tell me. I can’t read your mind.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">His sly smile suggested that he knew exactly
what she wanted, but asking for it was a bit outside of her comfort zone.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“Touch me, please.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“I was touching you.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Lauren groaned. Hank wasn’t going to make this
easy for her. “Touch my breasts.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“Like this?” He stroked the skin exposed above
the top of her bra.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“Squeeze them.” Lauren groaned with pleasure
when he finally closed his hand around one of her tits, gently kneading the
soft flesh. He switched to the other one and bent down to kiss her again.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">His palm pressed against her hardened nipple,
and she wanted to feel his skin against hers. “Take my bra off.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">With one hand, he deftly unhooked the front
clasp, exposing her breasts to his view. He groaned and lowered his head to one
of the rosy tips, capturing her nipple between his lips. Every nerve ending
sang in pleasure as he sucked one breast, and used his hand on the other.
Lauren wriggled under him, the satisfaction of having her tits stimulated
giving rise to the need growing between her legs.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Whether it was the alcohol, or the intense
desire, something made her bolder. “Hank, please touch my pussy.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">The vibration of his lips on her nipple as he
chuckled did strange things to her. He moved his hand slowly across her
stomach. As he got closer to her pussy, her breathing sped up, until finally he
slipped his hand into her panties. Lauren whimpered as he rubbed her pussy
lips, never quite coming into contact with her clit. Slipping one finger inside
of her, he began a gentle thrusting.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“You’re pretty wet. That was one item on your
wish list right?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Lauren nodded.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“And I’m doing okay at listening to what you
need?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“Definitely,” she whispered.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“That just leaves one thing. You want someone
else to make you come.” He stilled for a moment and then looked at her. “You’ve
only ever had an orgasm when you’re masturbating?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">Heat rushed into Lauren’s face and she turned
away from him.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“Look at me,” Hank said. When she did, he wore
a frown and his mouth was drawn tight. “Your husband never got you off? Not
even once?”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">A tear slipped out of the corner of her eye and
she swiped it away. “No.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">“What an idiot.” Hank grabbed the sides of her
panties, yanked them off, and tossed them over his shoulder. He pushed her legs
apart, and Lauren gasped. She’d never been so exposed. </span>Hank crawled between her legs and lowered his
face until it was just above her pussy.</div>
<div class="FreeFormA">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA"> Lauren trembled
beneath him, torn between wanting him to go down on her, and worrying about her
smell. Looking down at him, she saw his nostrils flare and he inhaled through
his nose. “Your pussy smells good enough to eat.”<o:p></o:p></span></div>

I was plenty interested in the opposite sex, but never really managed to connect with anyone until grade 10. I was a band geek who also enjoyed singing and acting (which is funny considering how much trouble I had interacting with people). I was lucky to land a good role in our school musical that year. And playing opposite me was a tall, good-looking guy who was three years older than me. As rehearsals progressed, we got to know each other, and my interest was captured. I never dreamed that he was interested, too, until about six months into the year when he asked me to a movie.<br />
<br />
That night will always live in my memory. I don't even remember what movie we saw, but I remember holding his hand throughout. I remember the way my heart pounded every time he got close, but most of all I remember the kiss at the end of the night. Perfect. Taylor Swift's song Fifteen always makes me nostalgic, because I was fifteen.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Sigh.<br />

We were pretty much inseparable for the next month or so, our make-out sessions getting heavier, until one night he slipped his hand under my shirt, and I let him. But for some reason, he felt things were moving too fast (that's right folks - the 18 year old boy put the brakes on when it started to get serious). He was a decent guy, but our relationship ended then, and we stayed friends.<br />

Though there were a few incidents of spin-the-bottle over the next couple years, I didn't have another boyfriend until just before my 18th birthday. By this point, many of my friends had started having sex, one had even had a baby, and I still had no clue. So on my 18th birthday, I decided that I was sick of being a virgin and told my boyfriend that we could go all the way. In a Chevette. Not the smartest decision ever. It hurt like hell, lasted all of thirty seconds, and is not one of my fondest memories.<br />
<br />
Lucky for us, the next time was in a bed and worked much better. It was great for a while, but we broke up when I went away for college, though we maintained a friends with benefits arrangement for a long time, even while we were involved with other people. The emotional fall-out from that relationship was pretty devastating and I didn't really get over it until I met my husband.<br />
<br />
And once I knew that hubby was "the one" I wished that I had saved myself for him. I was sure my first time would have been a lot more enjoyable.<br />

This is what inspired my new series from Evernight called Losing It. What if there'd been a way to be with an experienced lover for my first time? One who knew better than to try having sex in a tiny car. One who understood something about foreplay. Would it have been different? I like to think so. The premise behind the series is an online hook-up site which matches experienced lovers with virgins, for a no-strings-attached, amazing first time. They're short, fun stories, and of course, they have a happily ever after.<br />
<br />
So if you could go back and talk to your younger self, what advice would you have to give about losing your virginity?Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03703630647274969749noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6287725051702791942.post-91367964741712182422014-03-01T00:00:00.000-05:002014-03-01T00:00:09.805-05:00NEW RELEASE: Master Lucifer's Errant Sub by Claire de Lune<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-CA">The lovely
Claire de Lune (what an awesome pen name!) is visiting to tell us about her latest release, <b><i>Lucifer’s
Errant Sub</i></b>. What an awesome title! After checking out the cover and
blurb, I had a few questions which Claire was gracious enough to answer.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<b><span lang="EN-CA">Michelle: </span></b><span lang="EN-CA">What’s your favorite part about writing
ManLove?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA">Claire: </span></b><span lang="EN-CA">This is my first Manlove only. I have written
MM in a ménage but never solely MM. I never intended to write Lucifer and Devil’s
story. They were minor characters in Master Salvador’s Dilemma (Book 1 of the
Blood Red Rose Club series). They had different ideas and one night I awoke
with their story buzzing in my head so I had to write it down.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA">M:</span></b><span lang="EN-CA"> I know exactly what you mean! It’s
funny how our characters take over when we’re making other plans. What’s your
biggest challenge in writing ManLove?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA">C: </span></b><span lang="EN-CA">The biggest challenge is that I am a woman so I
don’t know if I’m getting in the head of my male characters. I do hope so. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA">M: </span></b><span lang="EN-CA">I understand. That’s always a worry
of mine, too. This book is set in a BDSM club. Why do you like to write BDSM?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA">C: </span></b><span lang="EN-CA">I enjoy writing BDSM but not the deep dark
sort. When I retired, I started to read erotic fiction and read a lot of BDSM.
Then I researched it and became very interested so it seemed natural that my
first book should be BDSM.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA"><br /></span></b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA">M:</span></b><span lang="EN-CA"> Last question: I love your main characters’ names! How did you come up
with them?<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<b><span lang="EN-CA">C: </span></b><span lang="EN-CA">Devil I chose because I had an Angel in my
other series, all golden skin and blond hair. Devil is the opposite, dark,
clouds of long black hair, deep bronze skin, so it seemed a good name for him.
Master L appeared as his Dom in the first book so I needed a name beginning
with L. Lucifer seemed a good one as he is Count Lucius Dragovic.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Lucifer woke first. There was someone
in bed with him. His arm was numb because of a head resting on his shoulder.
Then it hit him.<i>He’s here with me. He’s safe. </i>A feeling of the most
profound happiness came over him. He smiled as he looked at the sleeping man
beside him. The beautiful hair flowed over the pillow. Lucius bent to smell it.
The shampoo he’d used had left a faint smell of lemon combined with the unique
smell of Devil’s body. Lucifer inhaled and sighed. He’d missed waking up in the
same bed with his lover. He bent and kissed Devil’s brow. The amazing eyes
opened.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">“You’re real. It wasn’t a dream. I've
dreamed of you so often, only to wake and find you weren’t there.” Devil said
no more as Lucifer’s mouth stopped his.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Lucifer kissed him gently, then, as
desire overcame him his tongue explored every well-known feature. <i>I
almost lost him. I have missed him so much. He completes my life I will never
let him go.</i> As these thoughts whirled in his brain, he clasped Devil
in his arms and settled to kiss him witless. Devil gave as good as he got, and
as Lucifer held him in his arms, his grip gradually tightening, Devil held onto
him. Then he pulled him completely on top of him, opening his legs, trapping
Lucifer by wrapping his legs around him. He lifted his hips and ground their
cocks together.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">“It seems my pet is impatient,” he
said, and spoiled the effect of the stern tone in his voice by chuckling.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Devil wriggled out from under Lucifer,
whose heart hit his boots. <i>He doesn’t want this, and I won’t force him. I
love him too much, but it’s going to be hard to give up the lifestyle. </i>To
his surprise, Devil knelt by the side of the bed, his proud head bent.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">“Please fuck me, Master,” he said.
Lucifer was jubilant. <i>He does understand, and he does want this. </i>He
got off the bed, raising his lover to his feet. He held his face between his
hands and gazed into his eyes, searching for something. He needed to know if it
was what Devil wanted and wasn’t agreeing just to please him.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">“Very well, pet. Promise me you will

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">“With pleasure,” Lucifer said. He
pushed him onto the bed. “Stay there, and don’t move.”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">He went over to his night table and
took out a few items. He placed a soft blindfold over his sub’s eyes. “Remember
this? It will heighten your other senses. Is that comfortable?”<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">“Yes, Master.” The low voice seemed
calm.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Lucifer put soft leather cuffs on his wrists and clipped them to the bed head. "Keep your legs apart, pet." Then he opened a pot, dipped his fingers into the soft, sticky sauce, and smeared it over Devil's superb chest and firm belly. Then he bent and slowly he licked the chocolate off. He paid particular attention to Devil's nipples, smiling as his lover groaned and arched his back to get more. He licked and sucked his way over the taut belly. Taking his time, he chuckled as Devil became impatient and moaned.</span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;">
<span style="font-family: Times, 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: large; text-indent: 18pt;">"Patience, my pet.” He dipped his
fingers into the pot and coated Devil’s swollen and throbbing cock, eliciting
more moans. He left the chocolate sauce and picked up a soft ostrich feather,
stroking it over Devil’s arms and torso until he got what he wanted.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;">

<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Lucifer smiled, put down the feather,
and bent to lick his lover’s cock. Dipping his tongue daintily into the slit,
he licked and sucked the chocolate off the fat head. Then he took the head into
his mouth and licked, laved, and suckled, driving Devil to the edge. When he
judged him to be almost there, he stopped and coated his balls in the chocolate
sauce. He sucked first one then the other into his mouth, cleaning off the
chocolate, and in the process making his pet writhe and moan. <i>When he’s
better trained, it will be interesting to see if he can keep silent or not, and
what I shall decide to do to punish a disobedient sub. How I'm looking forward
to that.</i><o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; text-align: justify; text-indent: 18pt;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">When Devil’s balls were clean of
chocolate, he licked and nibbled his way up the thick, ropey vein on the side.
Then he took the dripping cock into his mouth and sucked until Devil came with
a shout. <i>Something else to explore. I will teach him to wait until he
has permission to come. That control will so enhance his pleasure. </i>Lucifer
swallowed the hot, salty cum and cleaned Devil’s cock. Then he took off the
blindfold and helped Devil to his feet.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
After an attack that slaughtered his family, vampire Dragan Zajicek walled off his heart and went on a sixteen-hundred-year rampage with the bad boys of history. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Now a rock star of the concert podium and master freelance spy, he’s taken the baton for a small orchestra near Chicago to investigate rumors of a monstrous, undefeatable vampire dubbed the Soul Stealer. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
But it’s the lovely, unassuming Raquel “Rocky” Hrbek who mesmerizes him from the first touch of her luscious lips on her flute.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Rocky, a shy shadow scarred by middle school cruelty, is mystified as to why core-meltingly gorgeous Dragan would notice a mouse like her. As his stolen kisses draw her dangerously close to the edge of her carefully constructed comfort zone, he exposes her secret—she’s investigating the monster herself.</div>

As their quest draws them closer together, the monster zeroes in on the woman Dragan’s rebellious heart tells him is his mate. Now they must find a way to destroy the indestructible before Rocky is utterly consumed. And Chicago is bathed in the blood of innocents.</div>

<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“May I accompany you, Ms. Hrbek?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I jumped and nearly tripped. Zajicek caught my wrist to steady me. His fingers were long and slender but amazingly strong—and fiercely warm. Like iron filings to a magnet, my skin aligned instantly to him. Hot sensation juddered through me, knocking me even more off balance. I scrambled to regain my equilibrium, only to have my feet scud into one of the semi-vertical sidewalk stones. My flute bag slipped off my shoulder and nosedived into the crook of my arm, yanking me sideways. I went down.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Powerful arms wrapped around me and saved me from severe pavement burn. The arms were gentle righting me, and I stood in their comforting embrace a moment to get my breath back. A strong heart beat under my cheek. My palms pressed against warm, crisp cotton. The body under the cotton was a solid, cloth-covered cliff, so unlike my own soft limbs. I shivered.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Are you all right, Ms. Hrbek?” Zajicek’s deep honeyed tones, tinged with amusement, came from somewhere over my head.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Huh?” Not the snappiest of rejoinders but I was cheek-to-massive-chest with Dragan Zajicek, the posterboy I’d had the hots for half my life.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
He was definitely not pasteboard now. The longer I stood there the more I felt. Every ridge of his taut abdomen, the roped muscles of his long thighs, the poke of his belt buckle; they all became alarmingly three-dimensional. His warm breath stirred my hair. Something else stirred too, at hip level…and silent laughter rippled through him.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
My brain churned. The intimate way he held me made no sense, but the laughter, well, my clumsiness had lightened the room on more than one occasion.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Then Zajicek’s long fingers slid under my chin, raising my face. His brilliant eyes were shuttered by slumberous lids. I stared in bemusement as his face expanded in my vision…</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
His lips found mine.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Warm. Smooth. Exciting. “Some Enchanted Evening” sang through my right brain.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
My left brain locked up in utter confusion. A man was kissing me. Zajicek was kissing me. The sum of my kissing experience was a slobbery grandmother and a few rushed awkward sexual encounters. I never really saw what the fuss was about. Until Zajicek.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I always thought kisses were simply the press of lips. His mouth didn’t simply anything. It rubbed, it tasted, it gently teased. Warm, velvety soft, his tongue began to explore.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I stood there in stupefied awe.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Until he murmured against my lips, “How clumsy you are, Ms. Hrbek. How very fortunate I was here to catch you.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
He thought I’d done it on purpose.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I struggled out of his embrace. He was slow letting go, his fingers firm on my arms. </div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
With a little tilt of his head, he perused me. Whatever he saw on my face made him release me with an extravagant sigh. “I beg your pardon. Apparently I misread your…desires.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I flushed, because he hadn’t misread my “desires” at all. Just my intentions. I jerked my flute bag onto my shoulder and started determinedly toward my car, fiercely watching my feet on the uneven sidewalk. “No biggie. What did you want, Maestro?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Long legs kept graceful pace with me. “Call me Dragan, please. Maestro is so overused.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
His first name? It implied an intimacy I couldn’t afford. “You call me Ms. Hrbek.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Yes, but perhaps you would allow me the familiarity of your first name as well?” His tone was coaxing.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I skewed a look at him, immediately returning my attention to the stones, although I was beginning to think Zajicek was more treacherous than my footing. “If you want. After all, you’ll be seeing us weekly for a while.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Perhaps you and I will be seeing a great deal more of each other, hmm?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Yikes. My stomach flipped, my attention disintegrated and the elevated corner of a concrete slab cold-cocked my foot. I tripped and would have fallen again if not for Zajicek’s lightning reflexes. He caught me in his arms, steadying me. Senses reeling, I let him, my forebrain scolding idiot but my lizard brain panting and presenting its tail. Before I could completely self-combust, he brushed a thumb over my cheek and released me.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“What do you mean by that?” I croaked. Catching my flute bag to my chest, I wheeled and trotted off, fast, too fast, almost running, nearly stumbling yet again. Making a conscious effort to slow down, I cleared my throat. “Why would you see more of me than any other orchestra member?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“I am staying in Meiers Corners for the duration of Mr. Banger’s recovery. That is what I wished to discuss with you. I have only just arrived in the area. I’d like to follow you home this evening.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Dragan Zajicek in all his powerful, elegant glory, driving behind me? My internal meter was pinging red alert, core meltdown imminent. “You don’t need to. I can tell you how to go. It’s not that far.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Perhaps. But it’s late and I would not wish to become lost.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I opened my mouth to say no, heard my voice say, “Oka—” and snapped my jaw shut so fast teeth sparked. Problem was, I liked being with him—which, considering I was practically wearing my heart on my sleeve, was dangerous. What if he found out his kiss was the first real one of my life, and had utterly demolished me?</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Ms. Hrbek?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
He was politely waiting for an answer. Politely, as if the whole of my pitiful ego wasn’t in the balance.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I tried to see it from his point of view. The man wanted help getting around. A few directions, not my soul. Simple neighborliness would do. I breathed deep, and managed to rasp out, “Sure. No problem, Mr. Zajicek.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
He smiled and slipped his arm around mine. “Dragan, please.” His hip bumped against my side as we walked.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
My respiration rate shot through the roof. I gritted my teeth. Simple neighborliness, yeah, right. Like your basic neighborhood raging inferno. “Okay. First names. I’m Rocky.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Rocky? That’s a boy’s name.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“It’s a nickname,” I admitted.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Ah. And your real name?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Yes. My “real” name.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
My friend, Nixie Emerson, once told me names have power. In her case, she went by her kicky middle name instead of “Dietlinde”, her dull-as-dust first. For her, that was appropriate. Nixie was short and punk and smart as a whip—and as smart-mouthed too, though she reined it in around her new baby.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
In my case though, my “real” name was not appropriate. Anti-appropriate, in fact. My mom named me Raquel, after Raquel Welch, the sex-goddess of the sixties. So while Nixie’s name was right and good, mine was a joke. And considering my nega-love-life, a rather nasty one at that. “Rocky’s good enough, Mr. Zajicek.”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Dragan,” he murmured, somehow pulling me closer. The heat of his body licked flame-like up my side. I hissed and shifted my flute bag between us, but as a defense it backfired. Zajicek simply plucked the bag from my hands. “Shall I carry that?”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“You don’t have to. No, wait—”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Nonsense. It is quite light.” He shifted my bag onto his own shoulder, not the one between us. The strap wrapped itself over his muscles like a second skin, and I swear it moaned happily.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Then Zajicek curled one hand around my waist and pulled me so close I could barely breathe. I tried to, really I did. But every tentative inhale brought the scent of him, cotton and sandalwood and burning masculinity. Every movement of my ribcage scraped the side of my breast against his arm, until I was trembling with the need to rub blatantly against him. Every breath drew cool air over my tongue…yikes, I was lolling like a dog in heat.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
My glasses fogged up, and I stumbled again.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Both Zajicek’s arms went around me. I felt incredibly clumsy and stupid, making him rescue me continually from my own feet. “I’m so sorry, Mr. Zajicek—”</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“Dragan,” he murmured, cupping my chin and lifting my face for another soft kiss. His lips touched mine, his mouth moving in tiny circles as if to warm my skin. He didn’t need to. I was plenty warm already—and a little buzzy.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
“You taste wonderful.” His mouth opened and his tongue teased the seam of my lips.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I jumped at the touch but Zajicek held me, so securely I relaxed into his arms. It seemed to be some sort of cue for him to lick me and slide his tongue between my lips, encouraging me to part them.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
He asked so nicely, with tiny hot licks. So I did.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
The instant my mouth opened he devoured me. His mouth slanted over mine and his jaw dropped. Heat rushed in. I gasped. Shocked and a little scared, I fell back, but he stepped with me, wrapped his arm around my back and trapped me good. He had to bend quite a ways to do it.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
My back arched like a bow, my breasts crushed to his chest, my hips to his thighs. Something stirred against my belly, sending a jolt shearing through me. My mouth tingled and my breasts tingled and I was getting really tingly between my legs.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
I slid my hands between us to try to wedge open some space. All I succeeded in doing was fitting my palms to the hardest pectorals in the world.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
The tingling between my legs was starting to drive me insane.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Zajicek’s mouth left mine to trail licks and nibbles down my jaw to my throat. He nuzzled me there, an odd dark rumble coming from his chest, almost a lion’s purr. “You smell divine. Ah, to taste you fully.” His tongue rasped over my pulse.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Somewhere along the way his hand had found my breast and was kneading and cupping while he sucked gently on the tender skin of my neck until my head spun.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
Then his fingers found my raised nipple and plucked.</div>
<div style="background-color: white; color: #222222; font-family: arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px;">
A thousand Christmas lights went on in my head. I shrieked.<br />

Yesterday was my birthday. Wahoo! I've reached the ripe old age of 39. And I'm not trying to be coy - I really am 39. Next year I might be 39 again, but I haven't decided yet.<br />
<br />
My husband has an aunt who's been 29 since I met her eighteen years ago. At that point I think she'd already been 29 about fifteen times. Her daughter is now 7 years older than she is. I always thought she was a bit odd, even though I know she's not the only woman who does this. I don't know why we insist on lying about our age. I could understand it when we were 18 and hoping to buy beer or get into a club. My parents are in their early sixties and they'll say they're 65 so they can get the senior's discount. Those things I can understand. But if I were to go around proclaiming that I was 29, everyone would know I was full of shit. Either that or I wasn't aging well and looked much older than my years.<br />

In June I was transferred to a new work location, and in chatting with my new colleagues, I mentioned that I have a twelve year old son. One of the other women looked at me and said, "Really? You don't look old enough. I thought you were about my age." She's 31. Talk about making my day! I like to think I look younger than I am (and I'm not posting a pic because that might give away my secret identity) but that was a significant difference. 31 is only barely out of your twenties! It helps that I've been lucky enough to avoid a lot of grey hair. Some friends have been using Nice 'n Easy since their twenties.<br />
<br />
Why is it so hard for women to admit their age? I'm sure it doesn't have anything to do with the constant bombardment of ads for anti-aging products (which I don't use). Women are just terrified of looking older. You know what scares me about aging? It's not the wrinkles, or the facial hair that seems to be occurring more frequently. It's the fact that I'm not as agile as I used to be. I have aches and pains that I didn't used to have. I worry about losing my mobility or about not being able to play with my grandkids. I worry about my heart, or cancer. Will lying about my age or buying whatever new cream is out there stop those things? Nope.<br />
<br />
Hubby's aunt can barely walk. Her health hasn't been good, and saying she's 29 hasn't given her a more youthful mentality. In fact, she acts like she's in her eighties. I really don't understand what she hopes to accomplish. Granted, now that the big 4-0 is right around the corner for me, maybe my attitude will change. I guess we'll see. In the meantime, I'm going to embrace my 39ness, keep an eye on my health, have sex as often as possible, and try not to get stuck in a rut that might lead to a mid-life crisis.<br />

How about you? Do you lie about your age or are you happy with the number of candles on your cake? I'd love to hear what other people think!<br />

<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b>
<b>WARNING: THE FOLLOWING LETTER CONTAINS PROFANITY</b><br />
<br />
Dear Creators of Candy Crush,<br />
<br />
I am a typical woman: wife, mother, writer, employee of a nameless company, cat owner. For a long time, I resisted the Candy Crush fad, but like many good people before me, eventually I succumbed, just because I was looking for something to do one day.<br />
<br />
That was the biggest fucking mistake.<br />
<br />
At first, the game was easy and fun; amusing for a time. Then, things got more difficult, and that's when I discovered that there were lives I was using up every time I lost! What the fuck? I play Where's My Water and Angry Birds, and they'll let me keep failing miserably over and over until I'm so demoralized I'll hide the phone in disgust.<br />
<br />
But when your game told me I couldn't play anymore (unless I paid for more lives of course), I just became that much more determined to show you that I could beat it down. It took an annoyingly long time, but I finally finished the early levels. And then I hit a roadblock. In order to move on, I had to play some frigging mystery quests (and only one every 24 hours? That's fucked up) or pester my friends to help me, or pay to unlock the next episode. Lacking patience to do the mystery quests, and not wanting to piss off my friends with a deluge of game requests, I paid to unlock the next episode. I rationalized it by saying, "It's only $0.99. That's not a lot."<br />
<br />
Bastards.<br />
<table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody>
<tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-o2L3Q-v_UEQ/UwuVeRyw0OI/AAAAAAAABfo/jJxSTaYBRgU/s1600/money+candy+4.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-o2L3Q-v_UEQ/UwuVeRyw0OI/AAAAAAAABfo/jJxSTaYBRgU/s1600/money+candy+4.jpg" height="320" width="240" /></a></td></tr>
<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Your candy is sucking all my money!</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<br />
<br />
In my relentless pursuit of beating your damn game, I've probably dumped at least $20 into a FREE app. Plus, you threw out those easy offers: "Play this other game we've got and we'll give you more lives for free!" Fuck. <i>That</i> strategy managed to get me hooked on Farm Heroes Saga and then Pet Rescue Saga, and I ran into the same damn problems with those games!<br />
<br />
In addition to the drain on my wallet, you've caused a huge drain on my time. I play the games when I wake up in the morning (because I have full lives again). I play them whenever I get another new life throughout the day. I play while I'm making supper (and let me tell you, my family is getting sick of burnt food). I'm even ashamed to say I've taken the damn phone with me into the bathroom to play while I'm taking a shit. Or even if I'm not taking a shit. I'll just sit there and play away.<br />
<br />
I gave in to the temptation to bug my friends because it seemed many of them suffer from the same unfortunate addiction that I have, and now it's a vicious cycle of enabling each other by sending lives, and magic beans, and helpful boosters! By the way, what the fuck is the point of the coins in Pet Rescue Saga? I've got a shitload of them but there seems to be no use for them at all.<br />
<br />
Your fucking games have cost me a ridiculous amount of productivity. I'll play on my lunch breaks at work, and sometimes even sneak in a game when no one is looking. As we speak, I should be writing some fucking books (literally fucking books - you should read my stuff) but instead, I'm wasting time playing a stupid fucking game.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
The only conclusion I can come to, is that this is all part of an evil plot to enslave humanity and take over the world. Well, I'm here to tell you that I won't take it anymore! I'm going to start a petition to have you all beaten with big-ass bags of candy until you cease all further game making. Maybe I'll even get a class action suit going for all the money and time I've wasted, not to mention the pain and suffering of being unable to get past level 382.<br />
<br />
I swear I'll do it!<br />
<br />
Right after I finish this game...<br />
