I’m so excited to announce that my latest Samhain book, SUMMER SOLSTICE, has been released and is available now at MBaM, Amazon and other online outlets!
SUMMER SOLSTICE
Book Three in the Celestial Seductions Series
This summer is going to be twice as hot…
The view from Leigh’s front porch was never this nice. In fact, her hunky new neighbor is sparking all kinds of naughty ideas about how to beat the heat. Much to her delight, the feeling is mutual—as long as they keep things light. Her divorce left her a little lonely, but far from needy.
Jared doesn’t plan to spend much time in his new place before jetting off on his next photojournalism assignment. Leigh’s classic, California blonde looks are any man’s fantasy. A little flirting, a little playful, neighborly car washing, and it isn’t long until their summer fling is in full swing.
Neither can imagine the sex being any hotter—until Jared’s sometime roommate and lover, Matteo, comes to town. In the arms of two men, Leigh brings her ultimate fantasy into scorching reality.
Jared revels in the chance to command his two lovers’ every move, but when he gets the call for his next overseas gig, he’s not so sure he’s ready for the fireworks to end. And even as Leigh gives her two lovers the most precious gift—their freedom—she wonders how she’ll find the strength to say goodbye.
Warning: Hot M/M/F ménage, sex in public places (sort of—read it and you’ll see!), every possible orifice filled (some simultaneously), a big, sexy, bossy alpha, an equally hot beta and a little spanking for good measure. Because let’s face it, who doesn’t need a little spanking now and then?

EXCERPT-Warning-X-rated!
“Jared…”
“What is it, darlin’?”
“Undress me, please.”
A small chuckle from him, then he pulled her dress over her head in one smooth motion. Matteo reached out and caressed one taut nipple with his fingertip.
“Beautiful breasts, Leigh. Damn perfect, really. I could write a song about them.”
She laughed, feeling freer than she ever had in her life, somehow. Powerful, desired by these two men.
“It’s true,” Matteo insisted, leaning forward and laying a soft kiss where his fingertip had been.
“Oh…”
Pleasure surged through her, her breasts aching, her lacy panties soaked. She was vaguely aware of Jared undressing behind her, but Matteo’s touch, his mouth, were making her crazy. His fingers were still stroking the undersides of her breasts as he feathered his lips over her nipple.
“Come on, Matteo,” she told him. Pleaded with him.
“I like that you’re eager,” he murmured.
“We’re just getting started,” Jared said, pulling her back, until she was reclining on his naked body.
He was a solid wall of flesh behind her—solid chest, tight abs, hard cock. His hand slid down between her thighs, his fingers teasing at the edge of her panties.
“Shall we take these off, Matteo?”
A sharp squeeze in her sex at the idea of being completely naked with them.
“Oh, yeah. Let me…”
Matteo sat up and ran both hands down over her sides, her thighs, and she parted them, wanting his touch, and Jared’s.
“You are eager,” Matteo said, smiling, his mouth soft and loose. He slid his fingers beneath the waistband and pulled down, slowly, slowly, his smile widening as her damp sex was revealed. “Ah, beautiful. You’re so wet already.” He pushed the scrap of lace down her legs. “I need to taste her, Jared.”
“Yes. Do it.”
Jared’s hands came around her, held her thighs, moving them wide apart. Then his hands slid in, until he reached her swollen pussy lips, and he held them open with his fingers. She was shaking, desire coursing through her like flame, scorching her.
“I love to feel your thighs shaking,” Jared whispered into her hair. “I love to see your nipples go dark and hard. I love to see you wanting. I’m going to love it even more when Matteo dives in and licks your sweet cunt. When he sucks on your hard little clit. When he makes you come in my arms.”
“Oh…”
She was too dizzy to speak. She could only watch with heavy-lidded eyes as Matteo did exactly as Jared had said he would. He leaned in, and his dark hair was like strands of silk on her thighs as he licked her, his tongue wet and impossibly hot. All the way up her slit, then down again. Gently, so softly it was driving her mad immediately. That, and the safety of Jared’s strong arms around her, his fingers hurting her a little as he held her open for Matteo’s searching mouth.
She could not believe this was happening. She could not believe how good this felt.
“I’m going to come.”
“Not yet,” Jared commanded. “Take a deep breath. For me. For us.”
She inhaled, held the air in her lungs. But Matteo never stopped, his tongue assaulting her, pushing into her now.
“Yes, that’s it, Matteo. Fuck her with your tongue.”
That hot tongue pushed deeper, slid out, then in again, the rhythm pure, wet pleasure.
“That’s so good, Matteo,” she murmured.
Her hips arched into his mouth, and Matteo’s hand moved around her waist, slipped behind her. Jared moaned as he shifted to let Matteo take his hard cock in his hand.
Jesus, she was really going to come.
“Jared…”
“Hold it back, my girl. I want him to stroke me. I want him to take us both to the edge.”
“Oh, God…”

Just come back here and post, letting me know where you’ve talked about SUMMER SOLSTICE. But I also want to know what your reading preferences are: do you prefer twosomes, threesomes, moresomes? Do you think a twosome is more romantic, or do you believe you can still have a strong romance with multiple partners ending in a poly relationship? And do you care if the sex scenes are hot enough? Does it depend on the story?
Here are the prizes:
Prize #1: copies of the first two books in my Celestial Seductions series, WINTER SOLSTICE and SPRING EQUINOX.
Prize #2: A copy of my erotic menage story, TEMPT ME TWICE, along with my latest Harlequin Spice Briefs erotic train story, NIGHT MOVES!

!
I also put it on my blog. http://jbpreviews.wordpress.com/2010/08/10/out-today-summer-solstice-by-eden-bradley/
I’ve had it on my coming soon side bar so i could look at it for awhile lol. But now I get to add it up on the big screen
As for you question:
I used to be a strickly M/F reader, but once I discovered ebooks I have branched out. My favorite ones though are M/M/F. What can I say I like my men to touch (as the very wise Jambrea says).
And the more the merrier in my book. Make just the single partner ones just not up to snuff lol.
by Drea Becraft August 10th, 2010 at 10:31 amLOL-Jambrea is very wise. :)

It doesn’t amtter to me in the book has twosome,threesome etc…as long as the story interests me..and yes I like the sex smokin’ hot in my books.
by elaing8 August 10th, 2010 at 2:24 pmI added it to my TBR shelf over @ GoodReads, which posted to my Facebook newsfeed.
As for my reading preferences, I’d have to say that I’m an equal opportunity smut reader…LOL As someone else on here put it, the more the merrier, & gender (M/M/F, M/M/M, M/M,etc.) doesn’t matter. My faves are the ones with hot flash inducing love scenes…the hotter the better!
The only real limits I have are abuse and sex w/ animals (non-shifters) or kids.
by Courtney S August 10th, 2010 at 6:42 pmSo excited bout the release…It was on my pre-order hoping to get to it tomorrow :) I also posted it on my blog as well. Wow! to get a book from you this week and book from RG Alexander the week before, I feel very lucky :)
by Dawn August 10th, 2010 at 10:28 pmAmazing, as always. Loved it, could not put it down. Jared is oh so yummy (happens to be my second favorite boy name heehee).
by Ivelisse August 11th, 2010 at 9:57 amY’all are awesome! Contest runs until next Tuesday, so keep ‘em coming!
by Eden Bradley August 11th, 2010 at 4:39 pmKelly Thrash One of my favorite authors (Eden Bradley) has an new book Summer Solstice! If you like hot and dirty books this one’s for you! :) Check her out she’s awesome and I love her stuff!
I posted that on Facebook. I love all of your stuff! I can’t wait to read this one! I never thought I would be into the multiple partners thing but I have read several e-books with multiples and I love them. The love and romance is just as strong if not better than when there’s only two. If the sex scenes are hot then I don’t care who or how many are there cause I’m trying to focus and read! lol
by Kelly Thrash August 11th, 2010 at 6:44 pmKelly-I totally *heart* you! :)

by Kris M. August 12th, 2010 at 5:43 pmI love menage stories! They are my favorite vice right now. I like to watch them try to balance one another and work for that relationship. Of course the love scenes are also a nice bonus ;)
Sat down today and read the book. WOW .. great job! Why can’t my neighbor be more like Jared. No mine has to be a 250 lbs. 5′ 8″ outta work slob. LOL great job!
