My latest e-book, SPRING EQUINOX, Book Two in my Celestial Seductions Series, is out tonight from Samhain! The official sale date is March 5th, but they’ve made it available as a special midnight sale tonight-be the first to download!

Once upon a time, two young lovers vowed to reunite…

Celestial Seductions, Book 2

After a bitter divorce, Isabel Asher returns to Isla de Margarita to find the only man she’s ever truly loved. Twelve years ago, on her eighteenth birthday, they made a pact to meet…if they both were free. Now she waits, wondering if Rafael Cruz will be her every fantasy come to life…or just a foolish dream.

Rafael never forgot their summer of love all those years ago. Since then, no other woman has measured up to the memory of Isabel in his arms. Their chemistry is still stunning, the sex is sizzling. The power of their memories is overwhelming. Yet it’s too soon to tell if she wants to be with him as much as he wants her.

As her time on the island grows short, their sensual play heats up, and includes a night with Rafael’s best friend. But they must decide if their passionate reunion is simply a celebration of the past…or a new beginning for lasting love.

Warning: Hot sex on the beach, hot sex in bed, two gorgeous Latin lovers, a little anal action, a little vibrator action, and a lot of orgasms!

Here’s a sneak peek-nothing too dirty…just a little tease…

* * *

Silently, he moved away from her. Taking her hand, he led her across the courtyard, through a narrow, tiled walkway, to a private bungalow at one end of the hotel. Her pulse raced, her heart hammered a sensual cadence in her chest, in her sex, as she realized what was about to happen. He would finally be naked with her, touching her, just as he had done in twelve long years of fantasies.

She knew already it would be a hundred times better now, as adults, than that one lovely, sweet experience had been. It would be better than anything she had ever imagined.

He opened the heavy wood door and pulled her into the cool interior of his home. One small lamp cast a golden light over the tiled floors, the heavy beamed ceiling, the potted palms set here and there. Through a wall of windows overlooking the beach she could hear the muted roar of moon-tipped surf. But she wanted to concentrate only on him. She would explore this lovely place later.

He stood with her a moment in the entry hall, watching her, a small smile on his lush mouth. His gaze was dark on hers.

“You’re more beautiful than ever, Isabella.”

His words warmed her, but she didn’t want to talk anymore. As though he could read her thoughts, he moved in and kissed her again, his hands going to her cheeks, then sliding down to caress her shoulders, her arms. His touch was pure heat, lighting up her skin. Electric, as though every nerve was acutely attuned to his touch.

When he pushed his tongue into her mouth, just slipping it between her silken lips, opening her up, she went warm and loose all over. The warmth quickly turned to volcanic heat when his hands moved in to cover her breasts, the weight of them filling his palms. She groaned into his mouth, pushed her body closer, her hardening nipples pressing into his hands.

God, she needed to be naked with him, needed to feel his touch on her bare flesh.

“Rafael, please…I can hardly stand it.”

“I’ll give you whatever you need, Isabella. I’ll give you everything. But it’s been so long, and I want to get to know your body again.”

That name. Isabella. No one else had ever called her that, only him. His voice, and that lovely rolling accent…hearing that name on his lips sent a long, lovely shiver through her: her breasts, her sex. Her heart.

Don’t expect too much. Just be in the moment.

The moment was too lovely to ignore. He moved his hands away from her aching breasts and smoothed them over her waist, her hips, tracing the outline of her body.

“Yes, it’s still you, but more lovely curves.” He sounded almost reverent as he whispered against her mouth. “More a woman.”

His hands slid downward, his fingers moving beneath the hem of her cotton dress and roving up her thighs. The moment his hands touched her naked skin her sex went wet, drenched in heated desire.

Touch me.

“Your skin is like silk, just as it used to be.” His voice was a husky whisper, turning her on every bit as much as his hands on her body.

Then he was kissing his way down her neck, in the valley between her breasts, over her stomach through the cotton of her dress, until he was on his knees before her, his cheek against her belly. Her hands went into his hair, and it was soft beneath her fingers. She was shivering, the anticipation sharp, lovely.
His hands were on her thighs, gently kneading the skin. Then he raised the hem of her dress higher, revealing the white lace panties she wore. She wanted to keen her need to him, to beg him. But she remained silent, the waiting an exquisite kind of agony.

“There’s so much heat coming off you, querida, it drives me crazy. The scent of your desire…mi Dios…do you know what you do to me?”

All she could do was groan as he bent his head and kissed her bare stomach, just above the white lace that was so unbearably in the way.

He kept kissing her, his mouth leaving a trail of molten heat across her belly. Her hips moved forward of their own accord, pressing into the velvet warmth of his lips. Her body was on fire, the need a scorching heat that centered in her sex and spread outward, breathtaking in its intensity.

“Yes,” he said quietly between achingly soft kisses, “I think you need me, as I’ve needed you, for too long.”

His voice, his mouth on her flesh, was driving her crazy. She wanted her clothes off. She wanted that soft mouth on her breasts, on her sex, swollen and burning with need. Why wouldn’t he undress her?

When he looped a finger around the edge of her panties and pulled them in a slow, sensual sweep down over her thighs, her calves, taking his time, her legs began to shake.

On his knees, he pushed her until she felt the wall behind her, warm from the heat of the day, steadying her. Then he pushed her dress up, the fabric bunching around her waist. He was so close to her she could feel his breath on the curls between her thighs, and her pussy clenched in anticipation. She closed her eyes, let her head fall back against the wall and waited.

He didn’t move, yet she could sense the change in his breathing as he knelt before her, his face inches from her sex.

“Isabella. Move your legs apart for me. I need to see you. All of you.”

God, that voice again. She did as he asked instantly. And she felt, for the first time, the power in his command. That some part of her was giving herself over to him on every level. That she would do—willingly—whatever he asked of her.

“Ah, yes.” He brushed his fingertips over her curls, so that she could almost feel his touch, but not quite. Torture. She’d never been so wet in her life. “So beautiful. I want to taste you, querida, and I will. But later.”

“Rafael, you can’t do this to me…”

Oh God, was he really going to make her wait?

“Patience, mi cariño. I’ve waited too long to rush this.”

“You’re teasing me.”

“Perhaps I am.” He smiled up at her, that lovely smile that felt so familiar to her.

Yes, they’d waited too long. But maybe it had been necessary, to bring them together again with a little life experience under their belts. But she was too dizzy with need to think about it. Now, all she needed was him.

“Touch me, Rafael, before I lose my mind.”

And stay tuned for some very big news-the unveiling of a fifth Smutketeer later this year!
All for Smut, and Smut for All!

The winner of a book off Loribelle’s backlist is Tamsyn T! We’ll be in touch to see what you’d like.

Thanks to all for commenting!

-Tell us about a day in the life of Loribelle Hunt. You’ve got kids (teenagers, omg!), a cop hubby, and a delightfully Southern extended family. How do you balance it all and stay sane?

Well, first you’ll have to tell me what sane is. Because, of course, sane is relative. I have sane relatives so that’s good enough, right? Or we could skip the niceties and just call the balancing act what it is. ADD on crack. Yep. That about sums it up.

-What’s your writing process like? Do you have a daily or weekly word count that you try to meet? Or do you wait until the last minute and write like a mongoose hopped up on speed?

I call my process the manic depressive insane writer way. I do not recommend it. Basically what happens is I have an editor or publisher or a bunch of readers, ask me for a book. An agreement is reached with a published for a deadline. I always give myself lots of time to do this. Unfortunately, I apparently strive on stress. And then, well, I stress. About characters and stories and plots. Because I got it in my head at some point that books are so easy to read they must be easy to write. Ha! I should be flogged. Oh wait…wrong blog.

Anyway, the serious answer is I tend to write in spurts. I’ll write a lot in 2-3 months and then nothing for 2 months. I have tried to change this process but the older I get and the more I write, the more I realize this is just the way I do it.

-If you could give one piece of advice to up-and-coming writers, what would it be? (It’s gonna be “always put on clean underwear,” we just know it!)

If you must wear underwear, please make it clean! Or you could do like me and take up cigarettes, beer, and mainlining Diet Coke, because if you’re starting out sane that probably won’t last!

-Some of our readers (and by that I mean every last one of the Smutketeers) may have a slight weakness for the boy-on-boy-on-girl threesome action. Once Bitten has some of that…is this a new subgenre for you, and will you be writing more of it?

Totally new for me! I started writing The Gift (my December Cobblestone release) thinking I was writing a love triangle. And the triangle went in a direction I didn’t expect lol! The Gift is a m/m/f story. And Once Bitten. And Twice Shy out this summer. And another as yet unnamed Cobblestone story for the summer will be m/m.

-One word comes to mind when you think of Loribelle Hunt. Okay, two. Alphas and shifters. Do these two naturally go together for you? What makes you lean in the alpha-ly direction?

I love werewolves. I love alpha men. And yeah, they do seem to go together. Lucky for me, I married my alpha man. There weren’t any werewolves available. I guess I’m just indulging my married to an alpha werewolf fantasy.

-If you could switch lives with one of your characters, who would it be and why?

Laney Bradford from Invasion Earth. She is totally kick ass. The woman gets to have hot sex and play with assault rifles. What is not to love there?

-Tell us about your purse obsession. You started writing for the money to feed your habit, didn’t you? It’s okay. You can tell us.

I have a slightly unhealthy love for Louis Vuitton. But obsession? That’s just mean.

-And for the question every author hates with the fire of a thousand suns…where do you get the ideas for your stories? (C’mon, you didn’t think we’d resist that one, did you?)

Walmart. Where do you get yours? This is such a hard question to answer. They come from everywhere and sometimes nowhere. I’m a big fan of the what if. With Invasion Earth for example I started with, what if you were sleeping with the enemy? And then, what if you were ordered to sleep with the enemy? What would make a woman agree to do that? How do you make that woman likeable? A lot of my books start out in this manner.

-Which books are on your pry-them-from-my-cold-dead-fingers keeper shelf?

All of them? Between me and my girls there are well over 2000 books in this house. Picking absolute favorites is hard. From my romance shelves I would never let go of Suzanne Brockmann, Christine Feehan, Nalini Singh, and Linda Howard. From the rest of the collection-Pat Conroy, Guy Gavriel Kay, Tony Hillerman, Anne Bishop, Nevada Barr…See? You’re making me pick here and the list is just way too long!

-Tell us about your current release(s) and what you have coming up next.

I’ve got a very busy year coming up. Once Bitten releases from Loose Id on February 23. Twice Shy hopefully will be early summer, same publisher. Claiming Earth will be out sometime in late spring, I think. And there are a host of books not currently titled or scheduled. All told, I should have 8-9 releases in 2010.

-Do you have any appearances coming up?

Are you kidding? Revisit the last question. I’ll be chained to my desk for the next several weeks. I am planning on attending RT and RWA this year, but in the real world, I mean, online, I have no concrete plans.

-Where can we find you on the Internet?

My website is www.loribellehunt.com. If I’m procrastinating, no brainstorming! I meant brainstorming! Anyway, then I’m likely to be found lurking at Romance Divas. I’ve also been known to hang around twitter, twitter.com/loribellehunt

*And now for some quick questions…

~Tattoos or piercings?

Both

~On men: In uniform or out of uniform?

Duh. Both.

~Alien or werewolf?

I’m feeling like a broken record here.

~Phone sex or strip club?

Phone sex

~Knee high boots or come-fuck-me pumps?

Fuck me heels. Of course.

~Top or bottom?

No comment.

~Voyeur or exhibitionist?

Where is my lawyer? That guy is always late.

~Stormy beach or snowy mountainside?

I will take a hurricane over a blizzard any day. Long as I am not cold, it’s all good.

And for one lucky commenter, Loribelle is letting you fondle all her goodies! Um, what we mean is that she’s letting you browse through all the goodies on her backlist and is giving away one book to someone who comments between now and next Monday. Winner’s choice. Good luck!

Hey there my smutty friends, our own R.G. Alexander is too shy to mention that her book, TWILIGHT GUARDIAN is coming out in print! To celebrate, she’s running a contest on her blog. Check it out here! Awesome prizes!
And stay tuned to your Smutketeers channel for author interviews and new giveaways coming right up, including our very special prize for one lucky reader at the Romantic Times Convention in Columbus, Ohio in April/May! Will you be there?
All for Smut, and Smut for All!

Love might need a little push…or a good, swift kick.

Tori Chambers. Old biddy, gossip, busybody and meddler. Except in reality she’s none of those things—she’s a guardian angel who specializes in helping people find their soul mates. Her latest assignment has had her tearing her hair out for over a year. She’s holding up her end for the fireman who’s her current client, but his soul mate’s guardian angel is dropping the ball big time. And when a replacement steps in, it’s enough to curl what’s left of Tori’s hair.

Jericho. The one man who broke her heart—and made her determined to never fail her clients like her own guardian angel failed her.

A hundred years ago, while fighting for Texas independence, Jericho made a mistake that accidentally cost her life. Now that she’s forced to make nice and work with him, he’s determined not to lose her again. Even if he has to tie her to the bed and make love to her until she’s willing to see reason.

Because unknown to Tori, she is his assignment. And if he can’t find a way to convince her they’re soul mates, they face an eternity of consequences…

Tracey D! !! email me at r.g.alexander@hotmail.com and let me know what ebook from my backlist you’ve chosen.

Thank you everyone for stopping by! And don’t go too far-my fellow Smutketeer Crystal Jordan has a new Samhain release coming out on Tuesday!!

Just in time for Valentine’s Day! We are interviewing harem leader, Smutketeer husband and Chef Extraordinaire…Chef Lee-author of …And He Can Cook!  How to Hone Your Most Important Dating Skill.

This cookbook has it all. Takes a man from grocery and equipment shopping, to cleaning his house. It’s full of sexy recipes guaranteed to make a woman weak in the knees, as well as advice from all the Smutketeers, and a few other fabulous romance authors on how a woman likes to be treated.

We have a little crush on him. And we all have a few questions.

Eden: When and how did you first come up with the idea to do a how-to cooking and dating book?

Chef Lee:  For as long as I can remember, I always seemed to be  helping someone come up with a recipe, helping my friends work out the dings in their relationships. (Apparently I look like I know what I’m talking about.) I thought about it a lot over the years, as I worked in different restaurant and resort jobs. I found myself working as a demonstration chef, and it showed me how many people don’t know how to do some of the most basic things in the kitchen, how willing they are to learn, and how clueless some men are about what women want. My wife often gushes over me to her friends, and a phrase she uses is “…And he can cook!” And voila the book was born.

Crystal: Give us your favorite dating tip from the book (It’s too bad you can’t read it to us out loud. You have a super sexy voice. Um…don’t tell your wife I said that.). Why do you think it’s the best tip?

Chef Lee: I actually have a lot of advice sprinkled throughout the book. About not spending more time in front of the mirror than she does, of the dangers of using cologne as a soap substitute etc. But the one most of my male friends seem to be oblivious to, and the one I think helps to get their minds focused on the woman and the evening ahead is:

Clean Your Damn House

Especially the bathroom. Or, if you have the cash, hire a maid service for the day. For around fifty bucks you’ll be able to see the floor’s original color and women won’t be afraid to sit down on your toilet. Also, that weird smell will disappear. What weird smell? Trust me…it’s there. Ask any woman, and she’ll know exactly what I’m talking about. The “bachelor” smell.

Feisty: That is so true. Okay, Angelina or Jennifer?

Chef Lee: Um…what?

Feisty: Oh, sorry-we aren’t at the quickfire questions yet. I’m getting excited.

Eden: Me too!!  Tell us how you became interested in cooking. Has it ever helped you get the girls?

Were you always so smooth with the ladies? (And you are smooth). (ETA by Eden: And you smell good. Don’t tell your wife I said that).

Chef Lee: I used to watch my mother and grandmother  in the kitchen, it was like watching a chemistry experiment. I loved chemistry. Loved to blow things up, like most boys. When I was twelve I asked for a traditional Chinese hand-hammered wok. And the rest is culinary history haha. (And yes, I still have that wok).

As far as success with the ladies…As much as I wanted to be a bad boy on a Harley, I’ve always been kind of a nice guy… a geek…with a Harley. Cooking became my unique skill, my ice breaker. Something that got me noticed and appreciated far more than my stories about my days in the marching band or my infinite knowledge of all things Star Trek.

Cooking did win my wife’s heart. Though she says my sweet ass and bizarre sense of humor helped…I know it was the chocolate raspberry cheesecake and my ability to recreate Benihana’s ginger salad dressing. (And thanks Eden, I try)

Crystal: What’s RG’s favorite recipe from the book? How many times did you test all the recipes on her before she decided?

RG:  I know! I know! The Fig and Red Currant Glazed Pork Tenderloin with Wild Rice and Goat Cheese Stuffed Tomatoes!

or the curry dish. Or maybe the Spicy Tuna with Wasabi Aioli. (I can’t decide-and I’ve tried them all…the reason I’m currently dieting.)  P.S.  Crys, Eden…You know I’m here right?  I can see you. LOL
 

Eden: *G* Speaking of RG,  What is it like living with an erotica author? How does she inspire your work?

Chef Lee: Well, I try to make dishes spicy enough to distract her from her current Alpha male. Food that inspires her to use me for research. ;) I suppose that keeps me striving to be my best. But also, as a romance novelist, she provides me with a perfect window into the female psyche-as well as inspiring me to write. Watching how much she has accomplished these last few years really made me believe I could follow my dreams of writing this cookbook. You are lucky in this life if you find a partner who encourages your dreams, and helps you make them come true.

RG: Aww. I think I have some more research to do hon. But I’ll wait until the interview is over.

Chef Lee: Yeehaw!

Feisty: Don’t stop on our account! Any plans for another book?

Chef Lee: Yes!  Probably by 2011. A couples cookbook (though And He Can Cook! can be used by both male and female alike) called And Two Can Cook! I’m somewhat of a kitchen nazi at home, though I teach people how to cook for a living. So my wife and I are going to learn by doing. In every other area, we work together very well, but in the kitchen-I’m in teacher mode. This book will have new recipes, and new ways to have fun and be romantic in the kitchen together.

Eden: Sounds great!! Tell us about your website and blog-you have some very interesting features that we think people should know about!

Chef Lee: My website is designed to be a source of continuous information stemming from my book. I have a cooking and dating tip of the week (I need to go put new ones in today) I have compromises on movies that would go well with different recipe themes, and before the year is out I plan on having some instructional videos as well. www.andhecancook.com

And now for some traditional Smutketeer-style quick-and nosey-questions:

~T or A? A…wait does it have to be one?

~Tropical beach or mountain cabin? cabin

~Boxers or briefs? Neither. If commando was good enough for Patrick Swayze in Roadhouse, its good enough for me.

~Champagne or beer? Beeeeeeeeer.

~Top or bottom? Top. Unless I can talk her into reverse cowgi–um…top.

~Sheep or goats? Why?  What have you heard? :)

~Angelina or Jennifer? Neither. I would say Minnie Driver or Selma Hayek. And the answer to that is foursome w/ my wife. This is the Smutketeers, I can say that right?

Smutketeers:  Always! Thank you Chef for coming to visit! Chef Lee is having a CONTEST. If you spread the word about this great cookbook and post on this blog, you can win a copy of …And He Can Cook! As well as a $20 Amazon gift certificate!

He’ll choose a winner on Sunday.

All for Smut and Smut for All!

Hey there folks-you’ve probably been wondering where the heck we all are and what we’re up to…Since we’re the Smutketeers it’s usually safe to assume we’re up to no good, but, sad to say, we’ve been staying out of trouble because we’ve been working so hard. That could be boring, except, again, it’s us, and we’ve been busy writing more smut for all of you! And let’s face it, if we must work, writing smut is an awfully nice way to go…
We’ve all just finished our novellas for our upcoming Wasteland continuity series. This last week we’ve been completing our stories, polishing them up, and sending them off to our editor-very exciting! We’ve been working on this idea for almost a year, I think, so making it happen is pretty damn thrilling! I think our readers are really going to love the post-apocalyptic world we’ve created-and our hot heroes! Here’s our blurb, for those who haven’t seen it before:

THE WASTELAND SERIES
Coming from Samhain Publishing in May 2010!

In 2012, the world came to a grinding halt as radiation hit from a massive solar storm. Crops died, animals perished, cities fell, and humans became little more than beasts themselves. Under the threat of starvation, civility was reduced to mere memory. Only the strongest men survived, and physically weaker women and children wasted to nothingness.

There is only one rule in the Wasteland: survive.

Crystal Jordan~~ Book One: The Wanderer
Lilli Feisty~~Book Two: The Whore
Eden Bradley~~Book Three: The Breeder
R.G. Alexander~~Book Four: The Priestess

Somehow, we’ve all ended up writing stories with multiple partners…great-and dirty-minds think alike-lol!
Meanwhile, we’re waiting with baited and panting breath to get our cover art for the Wasteland series-look for our covers to be revealed here first!-and busy writing more for Samhain and our other publishers. I’m working on my next Spice novel, R.G. is putting her next novel together for Berkley Heat, Crystal is always working on a hot new story for Kensington Aphrodisia, and Feisty is working on her next erotic romance for Grand Central Publishing.
Speaking of Feisty, her latest novel, DARE TO SURRENDER, was just released and is in bookstores and available for order on Amazon and other online outlets now! Awesome, hot, romantic story-a must have!

I love this cover! It’s suggestive without being obvious, in your face nudity-I think it’s classy yet seductive. I prefer this sort of cover to one that reveals too much-I love the subtlety of it, yet the message comes through loud and clear. One of my favorite covers is for my BDSM book The Darker Side of Pleasure. If you don’t look at it carefully, it’s easy to miss what’s going on, and I love that. What about you? Do you like classic clinch covers, a naked male torso…? What kind of cover really draws you in?
CONTEST! Let me know what sort of book covers you love, and you’ll be entered to win a copy of one of my e-books, WINTER SOLSTICE, Book One in my Celestial Seductions series! The second book in this series, SPRING EQUINOX, will be out March 5th. The winner will be announced on Thursday, so a quick little contest, just for fun. Hurry to enter-and be sure to check back to see if you’ve won!
And stay tuned for author interviews and giveaways coming up soon-we have some awesome stuff in store!

Today R.G.’s latest smokin’ hot paranormal erotic romance WICKED SEXY is out from Samhain, and to celebrate, I’m interviewing her! I’ll try to behave…sort of…*G*

Eden: So RG…another hot menage! You do seem to like the multiple partner thing. Care to share?

RG: Um…Well, I think menage, both m/f/m and m/m/f, are some of the most erotic, and most intriguing relationships to write about. The dynamics, the emotion…and lets face it, the sex, are all amplified when you are struggling with three (or four) very distinct personalities. Plus it’s hot. Not that I fantasize about it or anything. Is my husband reading this? lol

Eden: Let’s assume your husband is not reading this… If you were to have a menage with any two famous people, who would they be?

RG: That’s hard. I think I have more than one group. One includes Gerard Butler and Angelina Jolie. The other  Hugh Jackman and my husband. (What? He’s famous. He wrote a cookbook.)

Eden: Hot!!!!! (I’ve met your husband, just sayin). That explains why you keep writing menage, because who can stop at just one?
(What to do? What to do…Shall I let the Angelina Jolie comment pass, or not?) Hmmm…Next question. I just wrote f/f/m menage (my book THE LOVERS will be out from Spice in January 2011). Would you ever write f/f? Why or why not?

RG: Angelina Jolie is in my top five women I’d make an exception for (all of the Smutketeers are in there as well of course lol) As far as f/f,  I love women, but for some reason I’ve been utterly fascinated by m/m lately. The power struggle etc. I think there is no question that if a character walked into my head and wanted to be with her best girlfriend instead of the hot neighbor guy, I’d be all for it. I just haven’t gotten there yet. Oh and The Lovers rocks people. Put it on your TBR list.

Eden: Thanks for the pimpage…:)
All of this menage talk as put me in the mood. Give us a tantalizing peek at WICKED SEXY!

RG:

Blurb:

Something magic this way comes…

Wicked ³, Book 1

Callie has always known the Abbotts were different. Witches, though they call themselves “Magians”. They are her second family. Harrison Abbott has been her best friend since they were children. Tucker Abbott, her life-long crush. And their brother, Tyghe? A magical pain in her backside.

When the Abbotts need her human perspective to solve a mystery, she doesn’t hesitate. Especially since it means getting everything she ever wanted. A chance to be one of them, to have magic, even if it’s only temporary.

Someone is attacking young women at Triune, a ritual that helps Magians find their perfect threesome—the match that will complete their magic and their hearts. Callie expected to be dazzled by her first glimpse into the Magian world, but the bone-melting desire between her and the Abbott brothers isn’t part of the plan.

Nor is the decades-old secret that makes her the target of a killer…

Warning: Explicit sex, magical dresses, mind-reading rooms and mind-boggling threesomes.

EXCERPT

She came out of the changing room, trying to take a breath in the skin tight cat-suit that was, according to her witchy pal, all the rage for the modern, fashion-conscious Magian. Or prostitutes.

A woman with teased hair the color of a ripe mango came forward with her hands raised. “Ohhh, Miss Callie. Now that outfit makes a statement. No man will be able to resist you.”

“I won’t be able to resist them either, since I can hardly move,” Callie grumbled, causing Harrison to snort some of her peach margarita up her nose. Callie stuck out her tongue. “You deserve it, cousin. You no longer get to pick out what I’m trying on. By the way, I don’t see you parading around in any of these outfits. Do I get my turn to chuckle at your expense?”

“I’d love to wear something like that. But Mom insists I wear the dress she wore, the dress her mother wore etcetera, etcetera. I’ll look old-fashioned and ridiculous. You’ll definitely chuckle.” Hannah smiled at the saleslady hovering beside them. “Madame Aubrey? I think Callie would like something a little softer. Something a little less revealing.”

Madame Aubrey tapped her chin, tilting her head as she studied Callie’s body. “I think I have just the thing for the discerning connoisseur. It’s our newest arrival. Enchanted to perfectly match the wearer’s personality.”

“Now that should be interesting.”

Oh God. Could this get any worse? She held in her stomach. “What are you doing here, Tyghe? I thought this place was females only.”

He smiled at Madame Aubrey as she passed him slowly with a curious grin. He turned to Callie, looking her up and down. His gaze narrowed on the plunging neckline that made her breasts look two sizes bigger than they were. She crossed her arms and glared, but he only quirked his lips. “They make an exception for me. I’m very…generous with my female friends. I may have to buy that for you, Callie. As long as you promise to wear it only in the bedroom. And only for me.”

Harrison stood. “I’m suddenly nauseouss. I think I need another margarita, maybe a few straws to shove in my ears.”

Callie watched her follow the eavesdropping saleswoman out the door, grumbling under her breath at her best friend’s abandonment.

Tyghe shut the door, eating up the distance between them with long, swift strides. He leaned close to her ear, gripping her arms when she started to move away. Callie inhaled sharply at the jolt of electric energy zapping through her at the contact. She could almost hear the sizzle.

His grey eyes darkened. Had he felt it too? “Just doing my job, sweetheart. Madame Aubrey knows me, knows I only show up when I want something. Someone. Now she’ll tell everyone in the salon that I want you. But you have to do your part. This illusion only works if you pretend you want me, Callie, just a little.” He caressed her bare arms, his gaze on her lips. “The passion between Magian matches is not a subtle thing. It is powerful. Undeniable. Electric. If I’m one half of your match, you won’t be able to stay away from me, just as I won’t be able to stay away from you…especially before we find our third and join together officially.”

Callie’s breath came faster. His touch was taking away her ability to think. Had he ever touched her before today? No. Surely not. She would have remembered the sparks, the intensity. Unless it was a part of Harrison’s spell. Her magic, such as it was, reacting to his.

She licked her lower lip, and Tyghe groaned. “We should practice. Pretend you can’t keep your hands off me, Callie. I’ll make it easy on you. Pretend I’m Tucker.”

Her mouth opened to protest and he was there, tongue tangling with hers, lips opening hers wider, taking more, taking everything. Callie closed her eyes and saw swirls of violet and silver sparks burst to life behind her lids.

Tyghe Abbott was kissing her.

Eden: This sounds hot, hot, hot! Another thing you write a lot of is paranormal. Why do  you think paranormal is fun to write and fun for the readers?

RG: I have always wanted superpowers. Or to fall in love with a Werewolf. Or to travel back in time and discover the truth about a million questions I have. I believe in and love the possibilities. I am just drawn to the magical aspects of things, the miracles and the what ifs. Love is magic,a little supernatural. We can’t prove its there, it just is. And it shows up in the most unusual places. As far as why readers like it-Who doesn’t want an immortal vampire who’s spent thousands of years going through women like bottles of wine and having a giant chip on his shoulder suddenly fall for the innocent yet sassy schoolmarm? Thats my idea of a good time.

Eden: What are you working on right now? And tell us about your upcoming releases-I know you have a few.

RG: Right now I’m finishing up my part in the Smutketeer anthology for Samhain-WASTELAND. I do have a lot coming out this year. More of my Wicked series, MY SHIFTER SHOWMANCE-which is Book 1 of my Shifting Reality series, I have a contemporary in the works and then my Berkley book POSSESS ME comes out in August. So…really busy year. I’m excited.

Eden: I’m excited too! And our readers will be excited about today’s giveaway! Tell us about the contest.

RG:I’m giving away any book from my backlist to three (homage to menage) posters! Spread the word by posting about the release of WICKED SEXY on Facebook, Twitter or your blog, then post here and tell me where you’ve talked about it- I will pick my own special threesome tomorrow afternoon!
Thanks for the interview, it feels a little weird to be on this end of things. Am I going to have to answer the boxers or briefs question now?

Eden: Yes! Boxers or briefs baby?

RG: Boxers. lol or Commando. :)

Great minds think alike! All for Smut and Smut for All!
