Take Your Pleasure

Well, let’s face it, I missed a week! I honestly did intend to do the blog on the 16th, but I was vacationing down in Palm Springs, and the Wi-Fi at the resort where we stayed was terrible. Lost my internet connection about every 3 minutes. And downloading e-mail!!??? Oh my God, it took hours. And that was if I could even get into it. Okay, excuses, excuses!

This time I’m going to give away the Raintree series from Silhouette Nocturne. Here’s the line-up, Inferno by Linda Howard, Haunted by Linda Winstead Jones, and Sanctuary by Beverly Barton. It’s a great series, you’re going to love it. Although I’ll tell you up front that the Linda Howard is a well-loved copy (I couldn’t find it new). To be eligible for the drawing, you must type in your email address. I’ll also add you to my newsletter for updates on all the fun stuff and releases, too. I’ll announce the winner on my next blog in two weeks!

And now for my news! I’ve sold a naughty novella to Loose-Id! I’m honored to be a part of a great group of authors and a wonderful publisher. Take Your Pleasure will be out in February. Here’s a little tease!

When Natalie Beaumonde catches her boyfriend with another woman, Lincoln Masters comes up with a plan for Natalie to show her wandering man the error of his ways. Being a Master himself, Lincoln’s the perfect dom to help her execute the punishment. But Lincoln, who just happens to be Natalie’s boss, has an agenda of his own.

While I’m at it, Laced with Desire, a Berkley corset anthology with Jaci Burton, Joey Hill, and Denise Rossetti, will be out the same month, just in time for Valentines! (hmm, does Valentines have an apostrophe?) I love this cover, and I’m so proud to once again be writing with these wonderful ladies. Heck, here’s a little tease for my story (hint, when you read Yours for the Night, Simon Foster from Dominique’s story Payback will make another guest appearance in this story!)

La Petite Mort explores the lust of a former supermodel who needs to finally fulfill a no-holds-barred sexual fantasy. Finding two men to do it with is easy. But are they up to giving her all the pleasure she’s been denied?

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!

BLAZE OF MEMORY
BERKLEY BOOKS
Out 3 November 2009

Nalini Singh returns to the Psy/Changeling world and its “breathtaking blend of passion, adventure, and the paranormal” as a woman without a past becomes the pawn of a man who controls her future…

Dev Santos discovers her unconscious and battered, with no memory of who she is. All she knows is that she’s dangerous. Charged with protecting his people’s most vulnerable secrets, Dev is duty-bound to eliminate all threats. It’s a task he’s never hesitated to complete…until he finds himself drawn to a woman who might yet prove the enemy’s most insidious weapon.

Stripped of her memories by a shadowy oppressor, and programmed to carry out cold-blooded murder, Katya Haas is fighting desperately for her sanity itself. Her only hope is Dev. But how can she expect to gain the trust of a man who could very well be her next target? For in this game, one must die…
