Welcome Angel Payne today/Giveaway

It’s really exciting to be back at Dawn’s Reading nook for a visit!

Dawn and her gang have been supporting my stuff since the very first Kinky Truth book—and from the bottom of my heart, thanks SO much to you wonderful goddesses! It always makes a stop here that much more special and fun.

Today, we’re celebrating the arrival of the third book in my W.I.L.D. Boys of Special Forces series: Surrendering To Her Sergeant. Here’s an exclusive excerpt:

“Is this a dream?”

The words were whispered into Ethan Archer’s ear by the forest goddess he was seconds away from kissing. Corny comparison? Roger that. But completely true? Double on the affirmative. She was mesmerizing. Thick mist rolled around the pine tree to which he’d pressed her, stroking the waves of her auburn hair, leaving droplets on the long lashes bordering her indigo eyes, caressing every inch of the light bronze skin that the cowl of her sweater would allow. Lucky bastard, that mist.

“I was thinking the same thing,” he murmured. “Maybe we’d better do some recon, just to be sure.”

“Yeah. Recon…” Her voice trailed away into a needy sigh, suffusing his chest with warmth and his cock with fire, as they leaned toward each other. He caught the end of her breath with a brush of his mouth to hers.

His gentle intent lasted two seconds.

The second he tasted her, he needed more. Strawberries. Mango. Sunshine. Sudden summer in this chilled bower. Fuck, yes. He used his lips to spread her, demanding deeper entrance. When she yielded with an eager mewl, he swept in, coaxing her tongue into a sensual dance. By raw instinct, he found both her wrists with his hands. With one sweep, he had them locked over her head, against the tree’s trunk.

He pulled away to lock his gaze on her, too. “My dream includes this,” he growled.

A slow smile curled on her lips. “Mine, too.”

“That’s not what your eyes are telling me, sunshine.”

She widened those indigo irises. “Wh-what do you—”
“What is it? What are you holding back? Tell me now.”

“I—umm—”

“What?” he demanded.

“Tighter,” she finally rasped, working her wrists against his grip. “I need it tighter,

Ethan. Please…”


Surrendering to Her Sergeant -- Coming November 11, 2013

Corporal Ethan Archer has just earned his sergeant's stripes, and a trip to the fun and sun of LA is just the celebration that the guys on his Special Forces team have deemed the perfect celebration. Ethan has ulterior motives for agreeing so readily to the vacation. He can't forget a magical hour in a North Cascades forest last winter, shared with an indigo-eyed goddess named Ava Chestain, who now calls LA her home.

Ava is a makeup artist for Bella Lanza, star of the wildly-successful nighttime drama Dress Blues. When Ethan and his buddies finagle a visit to the set, his reunion with Ava melts the months away—but their time is cut short by Bella, who’s determined to rekindle her own naughty past with Ethan. His efforts to push Bella off are thwarted when the unit is called to secretly cut their vacation short in the name of assisting the CIA on a harrowing plot to destroy the West Coast. Part of the plan? Someone has to get closer to Bella--and Ethan's the logical choice.

Though Ethan risks his career by telling Ava about the plot, her trust is an impossible gift to earn. Her passion is a different story. As his willing submissive, Ava gives him the fire his body craves...and the surrender his soul needs. She's a dream come true--until the cuffs come off and the sun comes up.

As Ava gives Ethan more nights with her body, it becomes harder to keep hiding her heart from his touch, too. Every time she drops at his feet, she finds herself tumbling for him in deeper, more disconcerting ways. Bella's interference intensifies her struggle against past demons, and the man who stirs them so.

When a terrifying turn of events escalates the terrorists’ plan into full reality, Ethan must make decisions that will either kill or save them all--and his plan includes the necessity of Ava's trust. Can surrender to him with everything she is--including what could be her last breath?

Discover the world of the W.I.L.D. Boys and Angel Payne/Giveaway


Angels on my Shoulder (and pillow, and shower shelf, and driving my car, and…)

Arguably, the most important thing about setting up a new book for me is creating the people who are going to fill the story. It’s also the most exciting part of the job, too! The subject was a fascinating one as I sat at The Cosmopolitan Hotel in Vegas recently with a writing friend, on a brief hiatus from enjoying the festivities at Jimmy Thomas’ RNC bash. As we watched the parade of rather interesting characters flow by (all right, so that’s a vast understatement and I’ll leave it at that…some things really do need to stay in Vegas), we inevitably started making up stories for each of them. It was astounding how many different plots and “life stories” that we came up with!

The human race, in all its beauty and complexity, never ceases to astound and amaze me—and yet we are all bound by these funny little things called feelings that make every day an exciting possibility to wake up to. It’s what makes a writer’s job so damn interesting!



The two people who take center stage in my new book, “Handcuffed By Her Hero,” are a pair of the most fascinating people it’s ever been a pleasure to spend time with. To say they consumed my brain (and just about every other part of me too; he he he) is a vast understatement. Zeke Hayes found it very necessary to advise me on every aspect of life for a few months, including how I drove the car (never fast enough) and how I spent my dreams (never enough about him, apparently). Thank goodness Rayna Chestain was usually there to beat him back a bit for me!

Admittedly, part of the blame for their delicious domination is mine. Being a really visual person, one of the most fun parts about discovering a new character is getting to find the visual inspiration for that person. Usually (and inevitably), the celebrity I pick shares quite a few traits with the characters he or she is playing.

Take the incomparable Manu Bennett, who morphed into Zeke for me. Besides the fact that both men are built like lion wrestlers, Manu also has an intensity to his acting that was very much a part of Z, too. On the flip side, both men have a tendency to slip into an easy smile, followed by smoldering sensuality. Yep, Manu was absolutely the best pick for Zeke!




For Rayna, the search was exhaustive. In the first W.I.L.D. Boys book, I’d described Ray as having fiery red hair—though her year-long captivity had turned her into somebody a bit more meek than she usually was. In her romantic journey with Zeke, she rediscovers her backbone and her submissive side, together. Tricky growth as a person? Hell, yeah. Though there are lots of incredible redheads in this world, I finally found that perfect blend of soft and strong in the beautiful Hayley Williams, who is the lead singer and songwriter for the band Paramore. Hayley not only looks the part, but her soulful singing is perfect evidence of how deep her heart and soul go, too. As Rayna bloomed to life on the pages of the book, she was my constant go-to for a visual on the woman’s fiery beauty, both inside and out.

I truly hope that you have a great time reading “Handcuffed By Her Hero.” For everyone who has read it and given it such wonderful feedback already, I am so grateful. Thank you!

Contemporary Erotic Romance BDSM/Kink

Between a rock and a hard place.

To Sergeant Zeke Hayes, the expression has always been a non-factor. There's never been a situation he can't blast, punch, or smart-ass his way out of, which makes him the perfect fit for his Special Forces battalion--and a natural-born Dominant who's made a lot of submissives happy from Mt. Rainier to Vancouver.

That all changes when Rayna Chestain enters his world.

A rock.

From the moment Z snatches Rayna from the lair of a South Asian slave trafficker, his inner grizzly roars to life. This is a huge damn problem, because Z isn't wired to be a one-woman man. Growing up an orphan on the streets of Seattle has taught him that beyond a few hours in a dungeon, trust means disappointment and love leads to agony. But here he is, in the remote wilderness escape he'd promised not to share with anyone, harboring Rayna from a fiend who now wants his pound of revenge flesh from her.

A hard place.

Sheltering Rayna? Z's never done anything more right in his life. But wanting her? Dreaming of her beneath him, surrendering to his passion and domination? It's the most forbidden fruit he can crave...and the only thing he can't stop thinking about.

A new beginning?

This is a dead-end canyon that no rifle, bomb or sweet talk will let Zeke escape from. The only way out is to confront the reality of what Rayna has done to him...the mountain she's moved in his intractable heart.
