I like to spend my summer days relaxing by the pool with a sexy, steamy book and I can tell you, I've read some good ones this year. Although I write mostly kink, I read anything and everything. What can I say? I like variety. I thought I'd share a few of my favorite summer reads.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
If you haven't read the Alpha and Omega series by Aline Hunter, you are missing out. Ms. Hunter's heroes are hot and possessive, her heroines are sassy and smart and her plots are twisty and complicated. Needless to say, I adore this series. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Ballet and dominance, what's not to like? No one writes kink quite like Annabel Joseph. I love the way she crafts flawed, realistic characters. This story is tender and poignant with enough edge to satisfy my kinky heart. </div>

I'm so glad I discovered this series over the summer. It's sexy and fun. The men are hot, the women feisty and world-building is so clever. I love that Lolita Lopez wove bdsm into the alien culture. It's very reminiscent of the books I read years ago when I first got into erotic romance.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Busy this week. I'm trying to get prepared for school to begin. We have two weeks left and I haven't done any shopping. Nothing like waiting until the last minute. That's me, procrastinator extraordinaire. I've written a few pages this in Bait and Switch so I haven't been entirely unproductive on the writing front. I've also had a few brainstorming sessions with one of my crit partners *cough* Aline Hunter *cough*. Great stuff coming from her in the next few months. Have you seen her new cover?<br />

As for me, on the personal front, I've started a very rigorous new training routine with a detailed eating plan. It's kicking my ass. I am so sore it hurts to move. It's a good hurt though. Means it's working! I'm also cheering on my brother's beautiful girlfriend, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/npcangelicag" target="_blank">Angelica Kathleen</a>, who is currently training for <a href="http://wbffshows.com/events/2013-wbff-worlds-vegas/" target="_blank">WBFF World's Las Vegas</a>.

<br />
Happy Hump Day. I am finally starting to get over this nasty virus I've had for the last week. Nothing like a summer cold to throw everything out of whack. To be honest, I haven't written anything in days. I've been resting and marathoning through SyFy Original movies. Yes, it was spurred on by the cinematic masterpiece known as Sharknado. This week's gems included Arachnoquake, Sharktopus and Jersey Shore Shark Attack. I'm officially cheesed out, feeling better and ready to get back to work.<br />
<br />
I've been contemplating what to do after I finish the next two books in the Bound to You series and I've decided to take a small break from BDSM and work on something in the paranormal realm. Should be fun even if that's a ways off yet. I need to finish Jared and Sophia's story as well as the fourth book which I'm happy to announce will be Ivy's book. As of now, I don't have anymore stories planned for the series. That may change though. I'll keep you updated.<br />

<span style="background-color: #999999; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Chloe Bryant doesn’t know what to expect when she enters The Wolf’s Den. Drawn to the werewolf tattoo parlor for reasons she can’t explain, she soon discovers the sexy man from her dreams isn’t a figment of her imagination. Not only is Jackson Donovan real, but he explains the dreams they shared are due to their destined mating. It can’t be possible. She’s not a werewolf. Even if he swears the mark on her wrist indicates otherwise.</span></div>

<span style="background-color: #999999; color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Jackson is stunned to discover the beautiful minx from his dreams isn’t a full-blooded werewolf but a Halfling. The only way to uncover Chloe’s past is to stake a claim to her future. By taking the delectable female into his bed, he’ll unlock every secret she has to hide -- as well as awaken the passion she’s tucked away for too long -- by exploring her mind, body and soul one sweet inch at a time.</span></div>

<br />
Coffee in hand, I'm attempting to plan out my week. Summer is always a difficult time for me as an author. I have the kids at home and finding time to write is never an easy task. Right now I'm outlining Bait and Switch, Jared and Sophia's story. This one is going to be fun, but will require some seriously creative thinking. With both of them being Dominants, I have my work cut out for me. What's worse...my brain doesn't want to cooperate with me on this at all. It keeps feeding me bits of the paranormal erom I started earlier this year. Figures, doesn't it?<br />
<br />
I finished up Annabel Joseph's <i>Waking Kiss</i> this week. Such a good book. I don't normally go for the BDSM as therapy trope. I have quite a few issues with it, but...Annabel pulled it off. I have a thing for flawed characters, throw in BDSM and ballet? Sold! This book did it for me in a big way. It's not as hardcore as some of her other novels. Even though the themes may be similar -- we've seen BDSM and ballet from her before -- each book has something new and fresh to offer. Go get this one. You won't be disappointed.<br />
<br />
In other news, I joined Silken Sheets and Seduction's <a href="http://silkensheetsandseduction.wordpress.com/ssbhbookbundle/" target="_blank">Summer Seduction Blog Hop</a> which will take place on August 14th. Check out the awesome digital book bundle they'll be giving away.<br />
<br />
If you haven't clicked on the recipe link above, what are you waiting for? Look at these! I'll be making them this week. Can't wait to dig in.<br />

I had the pleasure of reading Vampire Mine in its early stages and I have to say, I think it's the best of the Omega series. Aline delivers everything we've come to expect from her edgy, paranormal series. For fans of this series, you won't be disappointed. If you haven't read Aline Hunter yet, what are you waiting for? </span><br />

<span style="background-color: #999999;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">As the Alpha of New York, Trey Veznor placed the needs of his pack above everything—until the mate he’s waited centuries for waltzed into his life and gave him a taste of what he’d been missing. Sadie Dumus, seductive, beautiful and utterly captivating, is also something shifters avoid at all costs—a vampire. Stunned to learn of her nature, Trey turned his back on the only woman who could complete him.</span></span></div>
<div style="color: white; line-height: 16px; padding: 10px;">
<span style="background-color: #999999;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif; font-size: large;">Now, realizing he’s thrown away the one thing he can’t live without, Trey hunts Sadie down and defies tradition. Their sexual hunger is undeniable, with each sizzling encounter bringing them closer together. Sadie tries to resist but he refuses to allow it, using desire and her need for his blood to keep her close. With danger closing in, it’s necessary to announce his mating before the pack. To keep his female, he’s willing to lose everything he’s ever known.</span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;">After a painful past, Brian Donovan can’t afford to get close to anyone, especially a submissive. His growing lust for a certain mouthy bartender has been easy to keep under wraps, at least until he catches her snooping through his files. Spanking her senseless was not one of his better ideas. Even worse, he entices her into a relationship based on power exchange—no sappy sentiments, no messy emotional entanglements, strictly dominance and submission. He doesn’t count on Genevieve being the one submissive who makes him want to feel again.</span></span></span><br />
<span class="text_exposed_show" style="background-color: #999999; color: white; display: inline; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; line-height: 17px;"><br />Gen Hawthorn’s life is a mess. She’s always late for work, can’t keep a boyfriend and has a closetful of family secrets. When her gorgeous boss offers her a kinky no-strings arrangement, she can’t say no. Being dominated by the star of all her dirty fantasies sounds like what she needs. She just has to remember his most important rule—don’t fall in love.<br /><br />As their affair heats up, lines are crossed, tears are spilled and they discover just how difficult sticking to the rules can be.</span><br />

<span style="background-color: #999999;"><span style="color: white;">Heat level: mild to medium, some emotional triggers</span></span></div>

<span style="background-color: #999999;"><span style="color: white;">A stranger in the wings, a traitorous pair of toe shoes, and a traumatic turn dancing with The Great Rubio… For ballerina Ashleigh Keaton, it’s been one hell of a night.</span></span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 1.625em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: #999999;"><span style="color: white;">But it’s not over yet. When Rubio drags her to a private BDSM party at his friend’s house in the ritzy part of London, she meets Liam Wilder, a lifestyle dominant and frighteningly seductive man. Liam pursues Ashleigh, attracted by her strength and talent, but she has secrets—an abusive past and a crippling fear of intimacy that prevents her from connecting to anyone, especially a kinky playboy reputed to be legendary in bed.</span></span></div>
<div style="border: 0px; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 24px; margin-bottom: 1.625em; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">
<span style="background-color: #999999;"><span style="color: white;">Eventually he wins her trust and sets out to heal the troubled dancer, awakening her to a world of erotic obedience and sensual abandon in a series of “sessions” at his home. But how pure are his motives? Is he helping her or endangering her fragile soul? Liam hides his own destructive secrets, and so does Fernando Rubio, their temperamental friend. Over time the three become embroiled in a tangle of artifice, fears, and lies that threaten to undo everything they’ve worked for.</span></span></div>

For me, music is a huge part of the writing process. When I'm not feeling particularly motivated, it can put me in exactly the place I need to be to dive into my manuscript. Sometimes it changes the tone of a scene or allows me to pull up the emotion needed for a certain facet of the book. I honestly don't think I could have finished <i>A Firm Hand</i> without musical inspiration. It impacted this story on so many levels so I thought I'd share the songs I listened to. I hope you enjoy them. Links are included.<br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Excerpt from <i>A Firm Hand</i></span></div>
<div align="center" class="MsoTitle" style="tab-stops: .3in; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Brian stepped into the doorway of his office and was greeted
by the loveliest thing he’d had the pleasure of seeing all day. Genevieve was
bent over his desk with her backside to him. The curve of her ass peeked out
from below the hem of her black shorts. Her tan legs were perfect lines of lean
muscle. The boots she always wore—laced up to her knees with clunky platform
heels—about killed him on a nightly basis. A worn, formfitting t-shirt
completed her standard work attire. She showed just enough skin to make him a
bit crazy, but never seemed as though she intended to dress provocatively. On
purpose or not, she never failed to provoke certain parts of his anatomy.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Admittedly, she wasn’t his usual type. Christ, her choppy
shoulder-length hair was pale pink. The color made her geeky black-framed
glasses stand out in drastic contrast. On anyone else he’d have thought the
look ridiculous. Genevieve made it so sexy it hurt to look at her.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He’d watched this tiny ball of fire strut around his bar
with a huge chip on her shoulder for six months now. Keeping his growing need
for her under wraps had been difficult, but not impossible, at least until now.
He had a hard-on he could bust bottles with. His ironclad control was at the
breaking point. The fact that she was snooping through his files made it easier
for him to rationalize what he was about to do.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<i> Damn it.</i></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He hadn’t wanted to cross this line with her. She was an
employee and he’d always practiced a hands-off policy where they were
concerned. But the delicious little display before him was far too tempting.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He reared back and slapped her right ass cheek. <i>Hard.</i> It was every bit as firm as he’d
imagined.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She yelped and promptly dumped the contents of the file on
the floor in front of the desk, paper scattering everywhere. She turned toward
him, face flushed, mouth gaping in shock. But a spark of heat simmered in those
beautiful rum-brown eyes of hers. There was more to his little rebel than
sarcasm and tardiness.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
They stood, staring at one another for a heated moment. The tension
was so thick it was difficult to breathe.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“What the hell, Brian?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I told you to wait in my office. I don’t remember giving
you permission to look through my files.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I— I…fuck. It’s just my file. I wasn’t looking at anything
else.” Her voice, although shaky, held the slightest edge of annoyance.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He wasn’t sure she was aware of it, but she’d pressed a hand
over the spot where he’d spanked her, kneading it through her shorts. He hit
her hard enough to make his palm tingle. He bet her ass felt the same stinging
heat, one that was about to get worse.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“No. It’s <i>my</i> file,
which you so graciously dumped all over <i>my</i>
floor. Now get down on your hands and knees and clean it up.” The command in
his voice felt good.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“What?” She looked at him as if he were psychotic.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“On your hands and knees and clean it up,” he barked.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Her mouth tightened and her eyes narrowed. He was all too
familiar with that fuck-you look. She wore it often. “I don’t know who the—”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“It’s not a request. Do it. <i>Now.</i>” He raised his voice, drowning her out.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The poison in her glare would have killed him if things like
that were possible. He could almost hear her cursing him in her head as she
lowered herself to the ground and snatched up the papers one by one. The sight
of her crawling around on the floor, pink hair in her face and glasses sliding
down her nose, made his cock twitch. He was in trouble, deep, deep trouble.
With each piece she retrieved, her movements slowed. She was almost catlike by
the time she stretched across the floor to reach the last sheet in the corner.
The little tease.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She sat back on her heels, in a nearly perfect submissive
pose, and straightened the small stack. When she finished, she looked up at him
from her position at his feet and handed him the contents of the file. The
smile she wore as she pushed her glasses back into place was so full of
mischief he had to bite back a groan. He was going to have his hands full with
this one.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He set the file down on the desk. “On your feet.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
She sighed as she stood.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I should fire you.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A flash of pure panic registered on her face before she hid
it beneath a mask of indifference.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“But I think I have something better in mind.”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“And what would that be?”</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
He crowded into her space until they were inches apart. She
took a step backward, bumping into the desk. Leaning in, he put both hands on
the desktop alongside her hips. He had her right where he wanted her, trapped
like prey. His intentions were devious and wrong, on more than one level. But
at the moment he didn’t care. He wanted her and he would have her any way he
could get her.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“I’m placing you on probation until further notice. From now
on, each and every infraction will earn you a punishment. One of my choosing.”</div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">

A Firm Hand is finished and has been submitted to my editor. I hope to begin edits soon. I'll let you know how that goes. In other news, I have two more books planned in this series. Yes, you read that right, two more. The next book is tentatively titled <i>Bait and Switch</i> and will feature Jared and Sophia. A Dom and A Domme, should be very interesting. After that I plan to dive head first into <i>Well Played</i>, the story of Ivy and Silas.<br />
<br />
I"ll keep you updated on release dates and other info.Fallon Blakehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13894099158729820983noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4704323132331853620.post-24429036099399021532012-01-14T14:53:00.003-05:002012-01-14T15:19:53.346-05:00NewsWow, I have been a major slacker, huh? I should learn to update more often. I haven't been around much of anywhere on the interwebs. You won't see much of me until I finish my current project.<br /><br />I'm still working on <span style="font-style: italic;">A Firm Hand</span>. Yeah, I know. It's been a year. This book is killing me. But, I'm determined to finish it. I'm figuring it will end up between 70-80K and I'm hoping to have it done by the first week of February. As I've mentioned before, it's a BDSM contemporary, but much darker and more emotional than you've previously seen from me (hence the reason it's taking me so damn long to finish it).<br /><br />On the horizon, I started a shifter erotic romance that has been in the planning stages for a long time. I took a break from AFH, when the content got too heavy, and put a few thousand words down so that I had a place to jump to when I <span style="font-style: italic;">finally</span> finish what I'm working on now. As of now the shifter story is titled <span style="font-style: italic;">His by Rite</span>. It won't be as heavy as AFH, thank god. I'm going to need a break when that one is over.<br /><br />Eventually, I'll get to Jared's story, the sexy Master/trainer who made an appearance in <span style="font-style: italic;">Wrapped Around Your Finger</span>. Some of you have asked when that will happen and I'm sorry to say that I won't begin working on his book until later this year, but I do plan to write it. You'll get a glimpse of Jared and his love interest in <span style="font-style: italic;">A Firm Hand</span> as well as a little news about Indie and Banner.<br /><br />Other than all that, the only news I have to impart is that I've been working pretty closely with my new critique partner. She has some really great stuff coming out this year. I'm sure you've heard of her, JA Saare? Very talented writer. If you haven't read <a href="http://www.jasminejade.com/p-9592-omega-mine.aspx">Omega Mine</a> by her alter-ego, Aline Hunter, you need to. It's HAWT and full of action.

I mean come on, zombies and they glow in the dark? It was a no-brainer. Is it bad that I plan to wear them to my Dad's wedding? It's a small, casual affair, nothing churchy or formal. I even bought a very classy black dress for the occasion. The shoes might not scream class, but they'll scream something that's for sure. I'll be sure to post pics of the wedding.<br /><br />If you want to check out the shoes visit <a href="http://www.shop.ironfistclothing.com/Ladies-Limited-Edition-Moonshine-PID14931-IFLGLOW.aspx">Iron Fist</a>.

A few weeks ago my wonderful husband bought me the old horror movie, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0036027/"><span style="font-style: italic;">I Walked With a Zombie</span></a>, just because. I did say he was wonderful didn't I? Some women get flowers, I get horror movies and wouldn't have it any other way. It had been quite some time since I'd indulged in an old horror film. And I don't mean seventies or eighties old (although I love those too), I mean classic horror that dates back to the thirties and forties.<br />
<br />
When I was a kid I used to watch old sci-fi and horror movies every Saturday afternoon on Creature Feature. My husband's impromptu gift brought those memories flooding back. I miss those days, I really do. And it's funny to think back and realize how young I was when my fascination with horror started. When other kids were glued to the television every Saturday morning to watch their favorite cartoons, I couldn't wait for them to be over so I could watch Creature Feature. Yeah, I was weird even back then.<br />
<br />
As I sat and watched <span style="font-style: italic;">I Walked With a Zombie</span> last week, that old fascination started all over again. I've been so immersed in modern horror that I somehow forgot how wonderful, horrible and scary the older films are. Needless to say I went on a quest to hunt some of them down and recently added these gems to my ever growing horror movie collection: <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051744/">The House on Haunted Hill</a>,<br />
<a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0026138/">Bride of Frankenstein</a>, <a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0058700/">The Last Man on Earth</a> and I have a dvd horror collection on the way that has lots of goodies.<br />
<br />
One of the things I miss is the most about those days is the era of the Horror Host. It's such a shame they've become a thing of the past. The host of Creature Feature was the infamous Dr. Paul Bearer. He was the epitome of spooky. He had this eerie deep voice, a glass eye, drove an actual hearse around town and had this cheesy gallows humor I loved. I happened to find a couple clips for you guys on youtube and I thought I'd share. So without further ado, Dr. Paul Bearer...He'll be lurking for you!<br />

No super sekrit project this week. Don't worry, I'll get back to it. I'm working on a second project, a BDSM contemporary called <span style="font-style: italic;">A Firm Hand, </span>that has demanded all my attention the last few days. I have had a lot of fun writing Brian and Ally's story and all the little kinky things that have come along with it.<br />

<br />
"Good. It's supposed to hurt. Do you know why you're being punished?"<br />
<br />
"Because you're a kinky freak?" she replied, her voice thick with sarcasm.<br />

He slapped her left cheek this time. "Try again."<br />
<br />
"Because you're a kinky freak, <span style="font-style: italic;">Sir</span>?"<br />
<br />
He swallowed a chuckle.</blockquote>

I've read a lot of good books, watched a few good movies, listened to some great music among other things. Since I'm not just a writer, but also an avid reader, I thought I'd post a list with my favorite reads for 2010.<br />
<span style="font-size: 130%;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: 130%; font-weight: bold;">Best Urban Fantasy</span><br />
<br />
Considering it's one of my favorites, I've read several good books in this genre this year. It was hard to narrow it down, but there are three that stand above the rest.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRnZYcAB_gI/AAAAAAAAAIc/SnqYqugsLR0/s1600/cityofghosts_sm.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555710629194628610" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRnZYcAB_gI/AAAAAAAAAIc/SnqYqugsLR0/s200/cityofghosts_sm.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 160px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 100px;" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">City of Ghosts</span> by Stacia Kane<br />
<br />
I loved this series. It's dark, gritty and so unlike anything else out there. I have to say I love all the books, but the third blew me away. Bathroom scene, need I say more? There were so many emotional moments for me with this book. I chewed a few nails, I laughed, I teared up and when it was over I wanted to read it again. Ms. Kane's story-telling skills and characterization are superb and it really shows in this book.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRnbjQerULI/AAAAAAAAAIk/v9XXdkoYu7E/s1600/7759629.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555713014103756978" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRnbjQerULI/AAAAAAAAAIk/v9XXdkoYu7E/s200/7759629.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 160px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 98px;" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">Double Cross</span> by Carolyn Crane<br />
<br />
I'm not even sure what I can say about this book that would do it justice. It was such an emotional roller-coaster and so clever. Ms. Crane has given us such a unique and unusual world. The brilliance of the characterization, the idea of flaws being powers and the tension make it a huge win for me. The ending of this book about killed me, but you can bet I'll be first in line for the next one when it finally comes out.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRndd8xpmfI/AAAAAAAAAIs/59SKGSjM4Mk/s1600/6479550.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555715121938536946" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRndd8xpmfI/AAAAAAAAAIs/59SKGSjM4Mk/s200/6479550.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 158px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 97px;" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">Magic Bleeds</span> by Ilona Andrews<br />
<br />
This series is my crack. I can fully admit it. And this installment? There aren't enough words. Curran alone was enough to send me into serious book-high. I love the Andrews team's writing. The voice speaks to me in a way few others do, but it's the world-building that really grabs me. As far as I'm concerned, it's unmatched.<br />
<br />

<br />
This is a book that stood so far above the rest I couldn't recall the other books I read in this genre this year. Again, the world-building was fantastic. The relationship between Cerise and William was full of tension, emotion, action...you name it, this couple had it. I fell in love with this book.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 130%;"><br /> </span><br />

<span style="font-style: italic;">Heart-shaped Box</span> by Joe Hill<br />
<br />
Creepy and engrossing, this was heads above the rest in the horror genre for me. I simply love Joe Hill's writing style and can't wait to read more of his books.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 130%;"><br /></span><span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size: 130%;">Best Zombie</span><br /></span><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRnoW59Le3I/AAAAAAAAAJM/COdoFxo9bYM/s1600/51xDLw%252BPDjL.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5555727095550409586" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TRnoW59Le3I/AAAAAAAAAJM/COdoFxo9bYM/s200/51xDLw%252BPDjL.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 173px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 115px;" /></a><span style="font-style: italic;">Rise Again</span> by Ben Tripp<br />
<br />
For a book I almost gave up on, it ended up being my favorite zombie read of the year. It starts a little slow, but once it picks up momentum, it never stops. Full of apocalyptic goodness and zombie gore, I loved it. The protagonist, Dani, is an unusual character, flawed and at times selfish, I loved her to pieces. I'm anxious to read more from Mr. Tripp. He's an amazing and talented addition to this genre.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />

Bourne<br />
<br />
I can't say enough about this book. Written in journal form, it drew me in from the first page. It's raw, gritty and full of everything I love about this genre.<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: right;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><span style="font-size: 130%;">Best YA</span></span><br />

<br />
I adore The Hunger Games trilogy, but this book hit me in a way the others didn't. Don't get me wrong, I loved the first two. But <span style="font-style: italic;">Mockingjay</span> twisted me up, turned me inside out and left me in awe. Suzanne Collins has a gift for telling a tragic story. Despite how many were disappointed with the third book, I wouldn't have it end any other way.<br />
<br />

<br />
I know, another dystopian on my list. What can I say? I have a soft spot for certain genres. This book is reminiscent of others that have come before it, but Ms. Condie was able to put enough of herself into it to make it stand on its own. This was one of those books that when I finished it, I wanted to tell everyone about how great it was. It's going to kill me to have to wait for the next one.</div>

<br />
Zombie books are like candy for me and this one is no exception. The world Mr. Maberry created with Rot & Ruin speaks of his unbelievable talent. Post-apocalyptic with an Old West feel, zombies, action and heart, I loved every word!</div>

<br />
Raw, gritty and unlike anything in this category, <span style="font-style: italic;">Willing Victim </span>was by far my favorite read in this genre. Ms. McKenna took a huge risk with this book and it paid off in a big way for me. After I read it, I went and bought her entire backlist.<br />

<br />
Ms. Joseph's voice and writing style just do it for me. This particular book was so good I read it twice. The characters have a realism despite the unreal situation Ms. Joseph created for them. Jeremy is the kind of D-type that is very difficult to write. He's selfish, harsh and quite cold at times. He delivers swift and sadistic punishments that are as cruel as they are titillating. Ms. Joseph pulled it off with flare and style. Very few BDSM books can compete with this one.<br />
<br />

With the holidays fast approaching, another round of illness, my daughter and her issues and writing, time is something I don't have a lot of these days. I can proudly say that all my Christmas shopping is done! I'm treating myself to a cupcake for that one. Granted I did most of my shopping online, but hey, it's done. Of course I still have to wrap everything...so not looking forward to that one.<br /><br />On the home front, the flu has made a visit to our household and can I tell you what fun that has been? Hopefully everyone will be completely over it by Christmas. Sick toddlers, presents and a family get-together do not a good day make. Aside from the sickness, I've had other stresses. My three year old was diagnosed with Sensory Processing Disorder last year. Unfortunately, she has not progressed with the therapy as far as we'd hoped and she's now displaying more autistic features. It has been a hard and emotionally exhausting road. I can admit that I have had problems accepting that it may be autism. I love her fiercely and as a mother I just want her to be okay. It's taken me some time to come to the realization that her being okay, starts with me. The decisions I make now will affect her future and they aren't easy ones. We've begun the process of getting her tested and it makes me angry how difficult insurance companies make it for children like my daughter to get the help they need, but I won't bore you with all that. Some days are harder than others and I don't get as much time to write as I'd like, but I'm okay with that. Some things are just more important.<br /><br />About the writing, I've been working on an Urban Fantasy that has me really excited. The world-building has been time consuming, but I think I have all the kinks worked out. I'm also working on a new BDSM contemporary about a bartender and her boss with lots of spanking, because let's face it, bad girls need to be spanked every now and again. I have plans to write Aimee's story (Indigo's roommate from Wrapped Around Your Finger) and Jared's story (hot D-type and friend of Banner Faust). But I won't likely get to them for a few months. I'm dying to write an apocalyptic erotic romance. The plot and characters are coming together nicely for this one. Expect zombies, mayhem, gore and of course hot sex.<br /><br />I've been listening to a lot of really good music to get the creative juices flowing for both the apocalyptic romance and the urban fantasy. I thought I'd share some of my favorites with you. If you can't tell, I'm a big psychobilly / rockabilly freak. Enjoy!<br /><br /><object height="385" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Yu3Rfc9fr-0?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/Yu3Rfc9fr-0?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="385" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br /><object height="385" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mhcwjFL9OGY?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/mhcwjFL9OGY?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="385" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br /><object height="385" width="480"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/jxj5wlXY9No?fs=1&hl=en_US"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/jxj5wlXY9No?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="385" width="480"></embed></object><br /><br />Oh! Good news. I just came across another great review for Wrapped Around Your Finger. I'm a little overwhelmed by how much everyone has loved this book. There are so many pieces of me in this story and it's always good to see that it makes a difference when put yourself out there. Of course it's scary as hell, but worth it. So worth it.

I've decided to give you a small taste of one of books I'm currently working on. It's an Urban Fantasy with a few horror elements and that's all I'm going to give you.<br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">The air was so saturated with magic she nearly choked on it as she settled into the antique chair across from Remy Louviere.<br /><br />"Mmm, such a pleasure seein' you in my neck of the woods Ms. Kelly." His accent was lyrically smooth and lazy slow. The man talked as if he had all day to sit and converse. And she could sit all day and listen to him. Considering he was the most dangerous man in this godforsaken swamp, that was probably a bad thing.<br /><br /></span><a href="http://sixsunday.blogspot.com/"><span></span></a>Go visit the rest of the authors who participate in SSS.<br /><br /><a href="http://sixsunday.blogspot.com/"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 71px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_qYCR0jSuanc/TOkmZxjRR_I/AAAAAAAAAHQ/62LZvjY6IbI/s320/header.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5542003040695961586" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Thanks for stopping by!<br /><br /><a href="http://sixsunday.blogspot.com/"><span><span style="font-style: italic;"></span></span></a><span style="font-style: italic;"></span>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com15
