Hot New Quickie and a Contest!

"What's to know? I work construction. I ride a Harley, I have tattoos, I keep a knife in my boot, and I don't take shit from nobody."

That's what Richard tells his new girlfriend, Amelia, but she's not buying it. She senses the sub boy hiding beneath the tough guy façade. With Dominatrix fantasies of her own, Amelia hopes to bring both their dreams of a BDSM love affair to life. Together they explore the power and intensity of submission, rope, whips and erotic pain. As hot and sexy as the BDSM games can be, in the end it's about trust. How far will Richard trust Amelia to go? And how deep is Amelia willing to take him?

New Release! Enslaved - a dark, edgy BDSM romance

I wanted to write something that was dark, edgy, a little dangerous, but still with some kind of connection. Not a typical non-consensual dark and dirty, but something with a potential for redemption, passion, even love. I wanted to write about real people - two flawed, confused, lonely people with a deep underlying attraction neither is willing to admit, each for his or her own reasons. This isn't a book for the faint of heart, but nor is it a sappy, pat paint-by-the-numbers romance, the kind where you know the ending after reading the first chapter.

I urge my readers of the sweet romances (though my romances always have an edge, I suppose) to give this darker, more intense work a chance. And those of you who favor the heart-pounding, gut wrenching non-cons, you might just find this fills the bill, along with a satisfying resolution that empowers both the characters and the reader.

Here is the blurb:

Caught red-handed with her fingers in the company cash, Rae Johansen must choose between near-certain jail time or a much shorter sentence locked away in a BDSM Dungeon. Acceptance means placing her free will, her body and possibly her soul in the hands of a dominant man who demands complete submission. Whips, chains, ropes, floggers and the sensual wrath of a spurned lover are just some of what await the hapless slave girl, should she accept the terms he offers.

Choose right, Rae, and choose wisely. This may be the last choice you ever make.

What would you think of an audio book read by the author (me!)

I've been mulling this around for a while now, and if I can find the time, I think I would enjoy taking one or more of my books to an audio downloadable MP3 through Audible.com. I'm curious what you, my blog readers, think of this idea. Would you buy something like that? It being sometimes rather explicit erotica, would it make you uncomfortable to listen to it read aloud?

I still in the pondering stage on this, but leaning toward having a go. What do you think? Take the poll and weigh in.

Thanks! Claire

Alternative Treatment - Re-released through Romance Unbound

You might have missed this one the first time around. Here it is with a sexy new cover and a great m/m erotic romance inside!

Nolan Daniel’s got these one hundred hours of community service nailed, just as soon as he nails the handsome Dr. Mark Harrison, who controls Nolan’s time served. His sizable ego takes a hit when Mark rejects his advances in no uncertain terms. What did Nolan expect from a man of privilege?

Mark’s the good boy who always plays by the rules, always does what’s expected of him…and secretly chafes at the restrictions of his strait-laced life. Now he’s faced with the leather-jacketed bad boy who arouses the closeted Mark more than he wants to admit. A man he can’t resist. A man who helps him realize other things about his not-so-perfect life.

It’s time to take a stand. Time to burst the protective bubble each has built around himself in his own way. Little do they realize that moving forward could also cause them to lose each other and the love they share.
