In other news, I’m in currently in the middle of edits for Decadence, an Emerald Valley short story due out this spring. I’m also hard at work on Hat Trick, my third Seattle Marauders book. Hat Trick was originally going to be a short story, but… Well, let's just say Kyle and Nate made things a bit more complicated ;)

Book News: Decadence

I’m very excited to announce that this spring will bring with it a new Emerald Valley story! Decadence is a glimpse into what happens after happily ever after. Decadence takes place a little less than two and a half years after Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage and I’m very excited for readers to see this exciting next chapter of Naya and Devlin’s lives.

Naya and Devlin are at the heart of Decadence, but of course Naya’s best friend, Leah, has an important role to play in this story. Leah is always fun to write and I’m very much looking forward to getting back to work on her story (a prequel to Bed, Breakfast, and bondage). Decadence will also introduce Devereaux Cavanaugh, a future Emerald Valley hero. And man, oh man, I cannot wait to delve into Devereaux ;)

More details will be coming soon, but for now it’s time for me to get back to editing Decadence.

Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage is now available!!!

I can't believe how fast time is flying this year. It seems like I just finished writing Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage, but it released today at Loose Id! Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage is an erotic male/female contemporary romance that takes place during Thanksgiving and Hanukkah, so it's fitting the story releases when the two holidays are just around the corner.

Anaya and Devlin's story was a lot of fun for me to write. It's sexy, mischievous, fun, and poignant. Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage also happens to be the first story in my Emerald Valley series. I had intended Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage to be a standalone...but, well, the town of Emerald Valley took on a life of its own and there are a number of characters in my head demanding stories of their own. So as soon as I finish the Seattle Marauders story I'm working on, I'll be writing the prequel to Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage.

I hope you all have as much fun reading Naya and Devlin's romance as I had writing it.

Happy Holidays,
Riley

Cover and book blurb:

Most women wouldn't mind waking up to find six feet of perfectly-defined male muscle cooking for them. Then again, Anaya Bancroft isn't most women. She's the innkeeper and co-owner of Emerald Valley Bed & Breakfast and it's only pure desperation -- and a complete lack of ability in the kitchen -- that have her turning to her ex for help with the B&B's biggest event of the year. Devlin Levi may be a famous chef, but he broke Naya's heart once and she's not about to let him do it again. Devlin is welcome in her kitchen, but that's it.

At least, that was the plan.

Devlin has a plan of his own, one that could change everything. He wants Naya to give him eight nights. Eight nights of unbridled passion, eight sexual fantasies explored and fulfilled, eight chances to prove they're made for each other. If, at the end of their time together, Naya still believes they can't make a relationship work, the two of them will part -- for good. It's a bargain Naya can't resist, even though she fears it will end in heartbreak.

Then again, a lot can happen in eight nights...

Cover Love: Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage

My, how time has flown. It's a little over a week until Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage releases at Loose Id.

Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage is a reunion romance that takes place during Thanksgiving and Hanukkah. It's bright, it's fun, it's sexy, and the talented Mina Carter has designed a cover that reflects just that. Check out the cover and blurb for Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage below:

October already? Updates and October Sweepstakes!

2012 has practically flown by in a flurry of work. I can’t believe it’s time to decorate for Halloween already!

I hope everyone is having a lovely fall (or spring, depending on your hemisphere). Here in Northern California, I’m still waiting for the weather to catch up with the calendar.

I’m afraid I don’t have much in the way of book news to report. I’m hard at work on Hat Trick (Seattle Marauders #2.5) which will take readers back to Tahoe for a visit with Kyle and Nate (of Two-Man Advantage). Kyle’s got a bit of a surprise planned for his lover, and if you’ve read In the Penalty Box, you’ll know what that surprise is ;)

I’m also very excited to announce the release date for Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage, my erotic contemporary holiday romance. Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage will release November 13th at Loose Id!

Speaking of holidays, with Halloween approaching it seemed to be the perfect time to do a giveaway of my male/male erotic Halloween romance, The Taste of Magick. Jason and Travis’s romance was my very first published story and it has a very special place in my heart. So, if you’d like to win a copy of The Taste of Magick, read the rules below and enter for your chance to win!

**SWEEPSTAKES HAS ENDED**

About The Taste of Magick:

Warlock Jason Prescott hates Halloween with a passion. His boyfriend, Travis Byrne, loves it with equal fervor. When Halloween time rolls around, the couple’s relationship hits its breaking point. In order to save it, Jason will have to learn to open up, step outside his comfort zone, and show Travis how much he means to him. With the help of a little magick, Jason will deliver a Halloween surprise that turns into a bewitchingly erotic night neither he nor Travis will ever forget.

Book News: Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage

Happy Friday everyone!

I hope everyone’s having a wonderful summer (or winter, depending on your hemisphere). I’m trying my best to stay cool in the 100+ heat here in California. The Fuzzy Critic seems to have taken up permanent residence on the air conditioning vent.

Speaking of heat, I’ve got a new erotic romance coming out this year! Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage is a male/female contemporary romance set around the holidays and I estimate it will be released this November at Loose Id. Given the title, it’s no surprise that you can expect plenty of bondage and erotic fantasies from Devlin and Naya’s book. To clear up any potential confusion ahead of time, Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage isn’t a D/s book. (I don’t want to disappoint anyone looking for BDSM. The story has B and other kinks, just no DSM ;).)

I’ll be giving out more details on Bed, Breakfast, and Bondage over the next few months. Right now, I still have to finish writing it O_O

And just a heads up for the Seattle Marauders fans out there: Hat Trick (Seattle Marauders #2.5) is still in the works :)

Happy Reading,
Riley
