For openers, Miranda smelled incredible. Every time they met, Tey had to turn his head and hold his breath to avoid panting after her like the sex fiend he was. Her sweet combination of natural submission and totally sane determination to stay far away from him worked on his out-of-control sex drive. She pushed him closer to volatile rogue territory. Something about skating that blade-thin line of danger did it for him in a big way.
The strength of his attraction to the off-limits female, a clearly suicidal choice, meant his self-preservation instinct had already fled from his fast-disintegrating hold on reality.
Every once in a while I think about blogging. Most of the time, since I’m such a utter geek, I just blog, spilling out whatever occurs to me on the topic of the moment. I share the music that catches my ear, the last book I read, the struggle to produce a better story, things that make me laugh, snippets of life with the diva dog, and of course excerpts, story news, and author whines.
According to this website’s stats, for awhile free reads surpassed books as the most viewed page. If I didn’t blog at all, I might have time to create a free read a bit more often… But then I like the idea of more contests too…
The same way a baseball player wears the same lucky socks for each game, I practice my own superstitious rituals to coax the characters to reveal themselves. I sort through images to find ones that approximates the pictures in my head. I build a playlist of music that speaks for the story’s cast. Spreadsheets, notes, and sometimes drawings gradually fill a story’s notebook. Eventually the magic happens. The imaginary people take on life and the movie version begins to roll in my head.
And then the real work of capturing the right details to portray the action begins.
A Very Demon Valentine’s: Demon Hunters II is scheduled for release February 14th! Here’s the long blurb:
Miranda has crushed on Tey forever. Demon biology, great timing, and a scarcity of female demons conspire to make mating with the irresistible earth demon a sure thing. Saving Tey’s life gives her cart blanche to love Tey. If he loved her back she’d be thrilled, but he doesn’t even like her.
Tey avoids inhaling around Miranda because her scent is an aphrodisiac amping up his already out-of-control sex drive. Faced with imminent mating mania and Miranda’s proximity, he succumbs to temptation. After he bonds with her, his priorities change, but he’s determined to do the honorable thing and keep her from mating to him. If lust wasn’t fogging his mind and if he could keep his hands off her, then he might save her from a lifetime of regrets.
Mutual respect, trust, and lots of hot sex work to make two very stubborn demons realize how perfect they are for each other, if they survive long enough for their very own kinky little Valentine’s miracle to happen.
Her shoulders gradually lowered and her breathing slowed as they continued the ride in an easier silence. “Thank you.”
The words were sincere, but her sigh of relief made it clear she’d thanked him for giving her room rather than for returning her sandal or for lifting her out of harm’s way. His anger flared again at the thought of some son of bitch hurting her. He forced his hands to stay loose at his sides. His rage would only terrify her.
The erotic adventure morphed and the scene this was taken from no longer exists. Not sure what will happen with the incomplete novel–these characters may need their own book or it might become a free read.
“Evanne knows how to write hot alpha men. This novel is packed with everything you can ask for in an erotic paranormal romance. It has action, magic, great characters. Once I started reading I couldn’t stop, great story and romance.”
WordPress used their platform to join the chorus of stop SOPA and PIPA –legislation designed to shut down websites engaged in copyright violations. I understand the concerns about censorship and the potential for abuse in the proposed legislation. The level of backlash and underlying assumption that all regulation is evil scares me.
While WordPress asks for donations now and then. their developers chose to offer their publishing software for free. This is the model some of the well-intentioned anti-SOPA/PIPA crowd want everyone else who creates intellectual property to adopt.
No. Thank. You. I don’t want to give away the stories I write. And yes, I do think it’s wrong for people to copy my work and donate it to their fellow pirates.
The Question Copyright Organization claims stealing intellectual property isn’t the same thing as stealing real property. Therefore all software, movies, television, books, and music transferred to digital formats should be available for free.
Am I the only one that sees a huge problem with this line of reasoning?
In this society, most adults barter their time for money. We call this employment. We suit up, show up, and add value to whatever product or service our employers provides the economy. How many of us would keep showing up without paychecks as incentive? Most of us want and need to get paid for our work.
Go ahead and weigh in with your feelings — we still have free speech.
All Holly wants for Christmas is a dom to call her own. All Colin wants for Christmas is a sweet little slave and some red rope. It should have been so easy… Why the hell did she have to be human?
