Love Unfurled (Book 1 Intimate Encounters Series)

Love in its fullest bloom requires the time and trust of both partners. There is the little seedling waiting for care and attention. The very bud of the flower waiting to blossom, and finally, love at its fullest, fully unfurled—testament to all the time and energy that was put into it to help it grow. Yet, we mustn’t forget the sprinkling of passion that gives it color and vibrancy. So here is a look as love unfurls.





At That Hour (Book 2 Intimate Encounters Series)

Lauren knows that an invitation, once given, is hard to revoke, but passion untried can be even more detrimental. She has requested the attention of her dark fantasy lover, but will the reality be all she imagined or just a promise left unfulfilled?






Intimate Apparel (Book 3 Intimate Encounters Series)

What makes the things under a woman’s clothes sexy? Is it the frilly lace or the cut of the fabric, or maybe the color and the way it lays upon her skin? I think it’s the wearer, the woman who puts it on and takes it off every day with purpose and focus. I think it’s the viewer who gazes with appreciation and a glint of passion in his eyes. Most importantly, I think it’s the readers who place themselves in the role of the wearer and viewer and wonder if reality were fantasy, would they have just as much fun? Here is a collection of stories that explore just how “intimate” Intimate Apparel can be, so go ahead and take a peek. You know you want to.





Body of Work (Book 4 Intimate Encounters Series)

At the heart of some of the greatest fantasies is the ability to remake one’s self; carve out an image through imagination that is difficult to find in reality. What if fantasy and reality weren’t so different? What if the image born from imagination isn’t the one that needs to be the most desired and you could live in the space you are meant to inhabit? What if you could be loved for the person you have difficulty being? These are three stories that explore the fantasy of being loved for who you are and ask the question, why can’t it be real?






The Art of Love (Book 5 Intimate Encounters Series)

Body art is such an interesting thing. When done with thought and purpose, it tells the untold story of one’s innermost self. When done in haste and impulse, it is a regret that lives even while the ink fades. In the end it is a reflection of the intimate connection one has with his or her body. This collection of stories seeks to explore that intimate connection such adornment has, reflected in another person’s eyes.

Fire & Ice

Haddiya Price woke with a premonition that she was going to have one of those days that turned her life upside down. She would gladly hide under the covers until the monster of a day passed, but life didn’t work that way. It came barreling in and snatched the covers from her head and kicked her out of bed. Her estranged husband Weiland Osbeorn was back in her life thrusting her into a tumultuous game of intrigue and mystery that centered around a crime her father said he hadn’t committed. As much as she hated being dragged back into her father’s web of lies and deceit, dealing with unresolved feelings for Weiland, and a whole host of complications that come along with one of those days, Hadi knew if she didn’t get a handle on the mess life had dropped in her lap, she might not have many more days to come.

Mila has come to terms with being the other in a world she once belonged to. The Agency had tried to make her a tool in their arsenal of control over the people they’d promised to protect, and she fled. Then Ravi, a man she’d committed to the secret parts of her memory, hope and happiness, tracks her down to take her back to that place she promised she’d never revisit
again. Now Mila has choices t
o make.

Ravi has been given the task of capturing Mila and returning her to the Agency to stand trial for the crimes she has committed. The best of the best, he doesn’t let emotion or feelings cloud his judgment. He has purpose, and that purpose guides him. Yet when he finds Mila, those feelings he’d thought he’d crushed find fertile ground in his doubts about her guilt. Seeing her awakens
the desire of a future together he’d once carried, and now he has choices to make, because taking her back doesn’t seem like the best option—if it’s possible at all.




It’s hard for me to pick a time in my life when I haven’t enjoyed the thrill of a good scare. The heady anticipation of the adrenaline rush, the heart beating faster, and the prickly feel of tiny hairs on the back of my neck standing on end.This “scare” is of course always controlled and contained. I don’t seek out fear just for the thrill of it but when I read a particularly scary story or watch 
an especially frightening movie, I am in love with how that narrative is causing my senses to go in overdrive. Fear can also have another face, one of longing, regret and precious moments lost but frozen in time. That type of fear is often the scariest for me to experience because the fantasy of what may hurt me is all too real. But of course I enjoy it just the same. This collection of shorts is inspired by the many facets of “fear” and housed within the context of one of my favorite holidays, Halloween.

Each day you have the opportunity to read a story that will hopefully have you checking under the bed each night, sleeping with at least one light on or shivering with relief that it isn't your story being told. My greatest wish for you is that by the 31st day of October, you too will revel in all things that go bump in the night and with anticipation waiting for next year’s delights.

Charlotte Standford, vampire, and Eder Azrael, Vice officer for the Bureau of Supernatural Affairs, are at an impasse. Charlotte's first impression of him left a bad taste in her mouth and a dent in her wallet and his first impression of her was...well he was too much of a gentlemen most of the time to comment.

Unfortunately, her dream was currently a nightmare as she trekked through the Amazon Jungle avoiding wayward foliage, carnivorous spiders, and the very delectab
le Cisco Marquez. Cisco Marquez finally had Stella where he wanted her, by his side. Granted he had to trick and trap. well that sounded a bit illegal, entice and cajole her on a hike through the Amazon Jungle to do it.

What makes a fantasy good? That you can place yourself in it, without restraint or concerns, play with the fire of temptation without the fear of being burned. Here is a fantasy with a kiss of fire and a touch of naughty, that burns as it soothes, and has you look into that deeper part of yourself and think, "This could be me" and smile.




Love eternal should have an interesting story to tell. There is the first meeting full of surprise and wonder, which may have been just a chance encounter, but leaves the hero and heroine craving another. The story should have intrigue and mystery, the ever present possibility that it could never be, but finds its way to the happy ending that we all want to see. This is love eternals story and it invites you to sit down and take a read.



The Hunger


Sometimes the typical Happily Ever After isn't what you're looking for. Sometimes you want it quick. You want it erotic. You want it dirty. Sometimes you. Want. It. Now. Sometimes, you want something to make you sWet.

Hungry. Mia's so hungry. Every moment that passes is a silent but deadly battle to leash her darker side, to resist the urge to return to her old life where all that mattered was the hunt; where she reveled in being the very definition of a predator. She's managed to succeed in locking her primal needs away. That is, until Galen finds her again. Now not only is her need to hunt being tested but so is her need to be caught...by him...




Looks can be oh so deceptive. Gemma Sanders could probably mentally calculate how many times she'd heard that, but what she couldn't tell a soul was how many times she'd actually listened. Because of her height, she'd always had the tendency of judging men shorter than her; questioning if they had the ability to handle her...needs. What she soon learns in the infamous club Munya is that big things often come in small packages.





Control.

Esme Sanders wore that very thing in every fiber of her being. She had sex down to a guaranteed science. Not fucking, not making love, but sex. A private matter to be handled in the missionary position, under the covers, with the lights out and a few slow puffs of air as a backdrop every now and again. So why exactly had she let her cousin drag her out into the den of iniquity that was the infamous sex club Munya? Why was she talking to some tall and burly, but extremely manly stranger? And why was she allowing him to put his mouth there... Oh yeah, now she remembered...
