Happy Sunday!

Here is a tidbit of Tegan and Kyra's first kiss from Passions Flight. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did writing it.

 Leaning in he followed the path of his thumb brushing his mouth lightly over hers, oh so gently. He felt her shudder in response; her eyes going heavy lidded as he traced his tongue against the seam of her lips, urging her to open for him.
And God’s she did, sending heat exploding through his chest to light a path down his torso to  pool in his throbbing groin. He needed more, so much more and deepened the kiss, darting inside the warmth of her sweet mouth, his tongue stroked, coaxed and demanded. She  met him with a hunger matching his own, it shook him, heated his blood even further, lust spiraled higher through his already aching cock. He angled his head taking the kiss deeper, needing more of her

Pick Me Up Monday

Happy Monday!


There's something about a man in a kilt that just...


I took a few hours off from writing on Saturday to play with my friends at the Las Vegas Renaissance Fair. As part of a reenactment guild we were close to the main stage. I love Celtic Rock and when you pair a bagpipe with the Irish drum called a bodhrán well I get happy feet! It doesn't hurt when the musician are hunks with nice...kilts.

In other news I am hours away from finished Passions Flight (Whoot!!!) This has been a difficult book to write for me, don't know why but I think it has to do with one very sexy, very contrary were-panther who goes by the name of Tegan. 

After I send this off to my publisher, Evernight Publishing it's back to work finishing up two of my novella's in the Knight's of Excalibur series. Yay! After this I may have a little breather, a day or so then it's back to work finishing up The Summoning, and beginning the third installment in the Dark Breed series.

Know its back to work, no rest for the wicked or the weary as they say. Have a fantastic week everyone and see you next Monday!

Pick Me Up Monday..And the Winners are

 Happy Monday! This just about explains my week. Lol! With so many things going on it's a wonder I can remember my name these days. So here is the weekly scoop from yours truly. I had two contests running this week. The first was a live chat at Coffee Time and Romance with fellow Evernight Authors Avery Flynn, Avril Ashton and C.R. Moss. What a lively bunch of ladies. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of their company. We held a Web Hunt, giving five questions that could only be answered through our websites. And I am pleased to announce Charity was the winner answering all of my questions correctly. She won a PDF of Dark Passion Rising.
The second giveaway was Evernight's Birthday Bash, which ran September 25-October 2nd. This blog hop was a spectacular success. On my part I was offering separate prizes, choosing the winner via their comments. I had so many wonderful replies it was tougher than I anticipated. Finally, after much deliberation I picked my winner. Congratulations to Ju who won a $25.00 Amazon Gift Card, and PDF's of 'Twas a Dark and Delicious Christmas and Dark Passion Rising.
Rhonda Tutt is the winner of Evernight's $5.00 Gift Certificate

As for this week? well it's just as busy as the last. Tonight October 3rd  I will be chatting it up with Evernight Authors   Seleste DeLaney, Emma Shortt and Kelly Yeakle today at http://nightowlreviews.com/nor/Pages/Chat.aspx It starts at 5pm pacific time, 8 EST. Stop by and chat us up. We will be talking about our upcoming releases and everything else under the sun.

My second book in the Dark Breed series goes to submission this week and I'm very excited about it. This has taken a bit longer to write than the first book and is much longer. Once this is to Evernight I can finish up the second novella of the Knights of Excalibur series due this month to Extasy.
I have other projects in process and once I have news on these I will let you know.

Now it's back to work,

Have a fantastic week!

Happy Sunday! It's time for another six from Passions Flight book 2 in the Dark Breed Series

Tegan starts on the wrong foot with Kyra. Nothing new for the touchy were-panther.

    
 “And I know how to handle myself so don’t worry your pretty little head about it.”
     He watched those gorgeous eyes narrow with irritation at him. “My pretty little head? You just didn’t say that to me did you? Of course you didn’t. Because if you did that would mean I was dealing with a real imbecile.


See you later for another six!
