Sensual Sunday is brought to you today by Her Guardian Angel, which is the fourth book in my popular Her Angel romance series. Sensual Sunday’s always feature a hot excerpt from one of my paranormal romance books. Read on for this Sunday’s sensual snippet…
It’s time for Snippet Saturday! Each week has a theme or is author’s choice. This week the theme is Heat Wave.
I chose a snippet from the fifth book in my Her Angel romance series, Her Demonic Angel. It’s a scorcher of a scene this week… so be prepared!
A dark possessive snarl curled from his lips and he kissed her, the softness of it surprising her when she had expected hard and passionate. He kept kissing her as he walked up the beach, heading towards their villa. Erin wriggled, anticipation making her restless. She wanted Veiron naked and in the hot tub, water frothing around them, and the wall that concealed the half of the deck nearest the villa hiding them from prying eyes.
She could barely contain herself as he took the wooden steps up to the deck and set her down. Erin swept her hands over his chest and down the ridges of his stomach, licking her lips the whole time. His eyes narrowed as she tugged his belt open and then set to work on his jeans, slowly popping each button.
“I didn’t bring any shorts,†he said, his deep voice stirring heat inside her. She wanted him to whisper things against her skin as he kissed it and into her ear as they made love. She craved the feel of his strong hands on her body and the bliss of being one with him again.
Erin pushed his jeans down to his knees, so he stood on the deck in his black trunks. She could let him go in the hot tub in his underwear but that would spoil the fun. “That’s a shame… you’ll just have to go in naked.â€

It’s time for the Love of Mythology Giveaway Hop hosted by Book Lover’s Hideaway, Buffy’s Ramblings and Close Encounters with the Night Kind. The hop runs from June 1st until 8th, and my giveaway is international.
The theme of this hop is all about mythology and that means gods and goddesses, and all those awesome civilisations like Roman, Greek, etc.
I’ve decided that the best book for this hop has to be Love Immortal! It has everything this hop is all about. Here’s more about the book on offer:
Love Immortal
Felicity Heaton
Rescued from werewolves by the most breathtaking man she’s ever seen, Lauren is dragged into the fight of her life and a dark world she never knew existed. There, she discovers that she’s the latest reincarnation of a goddess and must drink the blood of her immortal protector, Julian, in order to reawaken and continue her three thousand year old mission to defeat Lycaon, the original werewolf.
With the help of Julian and an organisation of people with supernatural abilities, Lauren fights for her life, their future and the fate of mankind against Lycaon and his deadly army, but can she succeed when Lycaon has killed all of her predecessors?
Can she crack the armour around Julian’s heart and seize her happily forever after with him? And can Julian bring himself to trust Lauren with the fragments of his heart after everything he’s been through?
I’m still working hard on the next Her Angel romance series book, HER WICKED ANGEL. My deadline for completing the first draft of this novel is next Wednesday, because I’m taking a break from this grey, wet and windy weather we’ve been suffering in the UK and heading off to warmer climes for a week. I can’t wait to get away, but before I can go, I need to wrap up this book.
I’ve managed to get the book up to 80,000 words now, and there are around 9 chapters left to write. That’s probably another 30-40,000 words to go, which seems quite daunting to me right now, but I just have to get my head down and get on with it, and I’m sure I can get this book wrapped up in the next week.
The book is coming along really well now that I’ve found my flow with it again. The release of Unleash (Vampire Erotic Theatre Romance Series Book 6) caused an unplanned break in my writing in order to accommodate promoting the new release and getting everything together for it. It’s always difficult when there’s a big gap in my writing time on a novel, but thankfully, it didn’t take too much work for me to get back into writing this book. I clocked up 13,000 words on Thursday last week, and a further 13,000 on Friday, and then I wrote 10,000 on Tuesday. That’s 36,000 words in three days, which boosts my faith that I can get this book completed in first draft by Wednesday next week.
When I have the book completed in first draft, I’ll probably add it to my Kindle and take it on holiday with me. I think Asmodeus and Liora will need a nice break too, and if I get in the mood, I can read it through and pick up any minor errors, and then I’ll be able to get it off to Beta readers when I get back.
I’ve had a few readers ask when this one is coming out. There’s no definite release date for it right now, but I will say that the aim is to get it out in autumn 2013, so sometime between September and November this year.
I asked my Facebook fans whether they wanted a teaser with my WIP Wednesday post and many of you shouted out that you’d like that, so I’ve picked out another of my favourite moments in the book so far.
Here’s a teaser from early in the book… all first draft because I’m only just writing it so forgive any errors…
Today’s tease comes from the book Unleash, which is the sixth book in my popular Vampire Erotic Theatre romance series which came out on May 18th.
The angel meandered around his room again, the longest feathers of her black wings almost grazing the wooden floor with each silent step.
She delighted in the strangest things, such as looking through his drawers and pulling out items of clothing and holding them up for inspection. She rummaged through his wardrobe too, and held more than one shirt against her small, wickedly sensual body.
Those shirts would smell like her, and he had the stupidest urge to wear one of them tonight and carry her sweet scent with him to the party. It was almost as pathetic as the pleasing image of her dressed in only one of his shirts, curled up asleep and sated on his bed, that leaped into his mind.
She hummed as she poked at everything on top of his dressing table again and thumbed through several of his books. The same melody she had sung to him. The sound of it soothed his bloodlust and relaxed him, and he found himself enjoying her company.
She turned on the spot again and looked from his black-tiled bathroom and the broken mirror to him, her dark eyebrows rising as her gaze fell to his injured hand.
“Why did you taste your blood only to spit it into the sink?†That question leaving her lips caught him off guard and almost knocked the wind from him.

It’s time for the Manday Hotties Hop again and I’m continuing to bring you sexy new mancandy offerings this year.
Sensual Sunday is brought to you today by Masquerade, which is the tenth book in my Vampires Realm romance series.
Sensual Sunday’s always feature a hot excerpt from one of my paranormal romance books! Read on for this Sunday’s sensual snippet…
It’s time for Snippet Saturday! Each week has a theme or is author’s choice. This week the theme is Author’s Choice.
I decided to choose a snippet from the book Enslave, which is the fourth book in my popular Vampire Erotic Theatre romance series, this week. Hope you enjoy it!
A little background info… Varya, the heroine, is a succubus and she’s feeling a rather forbidden attraction to Andreu, a vampire. She’s just broken back into the theatre and has teleported into his room, where he’s sleeping, and she’s rather intent on getting a good look at the male who has captured her attention…
Varya raised her hand above him, holding it suspended a few inches away from his body, and willed the covers to follow it and slide down his bare body. The red satin slowly glided over his chest, revealing the hard slabs of his pectorals and his small nipples to her eyes, and then over the delicious ridges of his stomach. Even at rest, they were pronounced, clearly defined and screaming at her to lick them. That would be foolish. He would wake if she indulged such a desire.
She drew her hand down and the covers followed, flowing over the erotic dip of his navel and the V that told her gaze to keep going. She swept her tongue over her lips, every muscle tightening in anticipation. A dark thread of curls spread downwards over golden skin. Almost there. Her breath hitched in her throat. Excitement bubbled through her, a feeling she hadn’t experienced in what felt like forever. Almost. Her eyes darted forwards, too eager to wait for her hand to reach his groin.
Andreu grumbled and yanked the silk sheets back up before she could catch even a glimpse, covering all of his body and stealing it from her hungry eyes.
Varya pouted.
She brought her hand back up to the start of the covers and focused again, her hand hovering above his body. She willed the covers to follow and moved her hand.

It’s time for another visit from fabulous paranormal romance author Amanda J Greene at my blog today and she’s sharing more about her Rulers of Darkness series with the third book, Caressed by a Crimson Moon, and a very saucy excerpt for you all to enjoy…
Caressed by a Crimson Moon (Rulers of Darkness #3)
Amanda J Greene
Consumed by madness and tormented by dark memories of blood and death, Hadrian Lucretius, King of the Validus Clan, has returned after living in self-imposed exile for nearly three hundred and fifty years.
To maintain peace with the vampires, Eva Maldonado is offered as a sacrifice to the crazed vampire king by her father, the alpha of the Silveria Shifter Pack. Hadrian’s reputation is both legendary and lethal; he is ruthless, bloodthirsty, lusty, and soulless. When Eva arrives at the ancient fortress high in the Carpathian Mountains, she is shocked to find a ravaged man with dark burning eyes filled with loneliness and dangerous desire.
Would she be his lover…or his prey? His savior…or his victim? Would Hadrian lure her into madness or would their perilous passion be their redemption?

Since I don’t have a cover for the next Her Angel romance series book, HER WICKED ANGEL, and won’t have one for a while, I’m sticking with using one of my warning signs. I did make this one with Asmodeus in mind.
I’ve had a rough time with this book so far because the release of Unleash meant that I had a lot on my plate to do for that and it was really putting me off writing. Thankfully, I seem to have found my writing flow with this story again, and although it has been fits and starts today, I have managed to get the book up to 41500, increasing it by around 5000 words. That’s not too bad when I’ve been struggling to write these past couple of weeks.
I’m on a deadline with this book now. A serious one. I have to get it done in first draft by 5th June, and then have some very tight turnaround times on editing and proofreading in order to get it ready for release. I want this book to come out in September, but can’t make any promises right now. It’s tricky. I’m still not sure what my other release will be this year. It all depends on my muse. If he’s feeling up for it, I’ll write the next Vampires Realm book. If he wants me to write something else, well, I can only really do as he wants. At the moment, he’s leaning towards getting the first three Eternal Mates books written.
At least for now, Asmodeus is playing nice and we’re moving on his book again. He’s a rather wicked fellow, as you might imagine from what we’ve seen of him in Her Demonic Angel, and this morning I shared a snippet of one of my favourite scenes in the book on Facebook. I promised to post a larger snippet of that same scene here at my blog, so…
Here’s a teaser from the book so far… all first draft because I’m only just writing it so forgive any errors…
