So Much Going On!

Wow, this has been an insanely busy month. I can’t even tell you how many things have been going on, but I have lots of news.

To start with Enslaved By Magic, my genie novel, came out a few days ago. Unfortunately right after we released it the publisher realized the cover didn’t really work. And with the cover change came a title change as well. Because of that we had to pull the book down, because Amazon doesn’t allow retitling.

It is now back up as Mastering Amari, with a new cover, blurb and title. You can find it here: Mastering Amari And also unfortunately we have lost all the reviews that were up, because Amazon won’t transfer them to the new listing. So if you left a review on Enslaved By Magic can you PLEASE, pretty please move it over to Mastering Amari. And if you haven’t reviewed yet, please do so when you get the chance. It would really help!

In other news Keeping His Brat (up now for pre-order at a sale price) is FINISHED and is with the editor as we speak. I came really close to the deadline for this one but I think it’s worth it. It ended up being a good 15k longer than I had planned which was part of why it took so long. This book will be longer than usual for the genre, but it will release on time on August 7th.

I will be having a release party in the Dirty Daddies group on facebook on August 15th and will be doing a lot of fun stuff. I’ve got some nice giveaways planned, including a few custom items so you don’t want to miss out.

Speaking of Dirty Daddies … I am now I am currently working on my story for the Dirty Daddies Anthology, which will feature Mitch and Olivia on a trip home to meet his family!

I’ve been looking forward to writing this one. I planned, well hoped, to get the second Action Daddy book out just before the Dirty Daddies anthology was due to release, because where they are in their relationship will be after the second book. But I plan to make it stand alone so if I don’t quite make it, it should still be fine.

My final bit of news is that I will be participating in a book party this upcoming Saturday, August 5th. I’ll be in New Romance Cafe on Facebook. It’s a nice place, all about the romance books, multi-genre so not kinky focused. It runs from 3pm-10:30, should be fun. Come join us! As usually I’ll be doing a couple of giveaways!

With everything going on the blog has been a bit slow but I do have several articles almost finished. Hopefully I’ll be able to get at least one of them out at some point this month. In the meantime I have to get back to work. I’ll see you soon!

Surprise! Keeping His Brat is up for pre-order!

As you know I usually do a special pre-order price on my new books. This is mostly for my regular readers as a thank you for sticking with me. So Keeping His Brat is now up for pre-order at 2.99. Once it releases on August 7th it will go up to 4.99 as usual

Reckless Behavior. Serious Consequences. And more trouble on the way!

Charlie is in trouble again and this time Sam may not be able to get her out of it. When her reckless actions put her life in danger, he charges to the rescue. But Sam ends up being the one stuck with the consequences.

Now Charlie is temporarily in charge of the ranch, and she’s got all kinds of ideas. But what’s Daddy going to say when he comes home?

Warning: This book contains a consensual D/s relationship with discipline and graphic scenes.

And just a reminder that Enslaved by Magic is also up for pre-order, but today is the last day. It will go live at 2am PST. This one is with my publisher Red Hot Romance, so I don’t actually set the prices and can’t discount it, but if you grab it on pre-order you’ll have it your kindle early tomorrow morning to read!

Universal Amazon link here: getbook.at/EnslavedByMagic

✓ Bratty Genie with a long dark history

✓ Modern man who prefers his women to be willing submissives and isn’t happy to find out he owns one against her will now.

✓ A romance that was fated to free her.

✓ Spanking and hot sex!

Bound by magic. Fated to love only one man.

For centuries she has existed as a slave to whoever owns her bottle. Treated as little more than a vessel to fill their desires.

She’d given up on ever being freed and then he came into possession of her prison.

Luke.

A Dominant man who makes her want to submit for the first time in her life. A modern man who refuses to take advantage of her when she can’t freely consent, but one who will punish when she steps over his boundaries. A man who finally gives her hope that her bondage is nearing its end.

I’ll see you back here tomorrow for a review and links for an illustrated BDSM guide that was referred to me.

Mid-Week Announcements!

Hi everyone! I usually try to save my posts for Friday (for absolutely no reason, to be honest) but I had a few announcements and I didn’t want to leave you out of the loop!

Surprise Sale!

As I told you not long ago I have signed on with a new publisher. They will be releasing one of my books in a few weeks. (Squee!) But as a grand opening kind of event they’ve gathered together a bunch of authors who write power-exchange books (you know… the kinky stuff!) and they got all of us to put one of our books on sale for the week.

Since Action Daddy has been such a hit I decided to put that one up and it should be on sale now. It’s supposed to price match all over the world, but Amazon can be slow. I know that right now in the US it’s already on sale for .99cents.

Not only that but if you go over to my publisher’s brand new website they have the whole list of sale books there and read for you to grab: Red Hot Romance Inc.

If you read BDSM romance, Daddy books, BDSM club books, Spanking and domestic discipline books, or any variation of them then you won’t want to miss this. I know quite a few of them are newish, and some I’ve never seen on sale before.

So go go go before you miss your chance!

Exciting News!

Last year I wrote a book that was a little bit different than anything I’d done before. It was planned as a stand-alone for one thing, and I usually do series. And it’s a bit of a slow burn when many of mine dive into sexiness quickly. With this one there is some punishment spanking early on, but the sex and bedroom kink begins later because the story required it.

I’m a big fan of not forcing characters into things that don’t work for them and these two were really stubborn, but I loved their story and I loved the way it all came together. It was rich in detail and I did a lot of research to make it perfect. Despite all of that work, once it was done I ended up putting it aside.
