Guest Post - 10/1/19 - "Vikings" - #Erotic #Viking #Capture #Romance

Hot alpha vikings, strong feisty brides and steamy sex; what’s not to love?’


Blurb:

Filled with action and suspense, this summer’s hottest beach read comes in the shape of Vikings!

Battle-hardened and broad-chested, with arms strong enough to sweep you off your feet, these warriors are pure muscle, with shoulders built for carrying you to bed.

Congratulations to the nine authors who've created this shared-world series of supreme alpha hotness: Ashe Barker, Lily Harlem, Felicity Brandon, Gianna Simone, Vanessa Brooks, Sassa Daniels, Sky Purington, Emmanuelle de Maupassant and Jane Burrelli.  

A tiny Scottish settlement at the mercy of its enemies.
A harrowing bargain struck for nine fearful and reluctant brides.

Delivered into Viking hands, the brides of Achnaryrie now belong to their conquering masters but, as wedding nights bring surrender to duty, will fierce lovers also surrender their hearts?

The Highland wilderness is savage, life is perilous, and the future uncertain, but each Viking has sworn protection, and there are no lengths to which a man will not go to safeguard the woman he loves.

Against the forbidding backdrop of medieval Scotland, join these indomitable heroes and intrepid heroines as they discover that the raging storms of fear and passion can transform into enduring devotion.

Teaser Snippets:

The Vikings were merciless, murdering barbarians. And they were here.
With a despairing sob, Eithne turned from the sight below. She could still run, might be able to make it into the depths of the forest before the first of the raiders reached the village. She had perhaps a few minutes…

“To take up arms against men such as them would lead to certain death.”
“Better to die with honour—”
“Better still not to die at all. I have another idea. We shall negotiate.”

“By your presence here, I surmise you wish to speak with me.” He leaned down to murmur in her ear. “Or, if you prefer, there is still time to run for your life.”
“You would catch me,” she countered.
“Aye, probably.”
“And kill me.”
“It may not come to that.”

Intrigued, amused, and not a little astonished, Brandr folded his arms to regard her. “A bargain? You seek to bargain with me?”
“I do.”
The female held his gaze, an accomplishment which eluded many of his most hardened warriors. His respect for her audacity and fortitude nudged upwards. “Go on.”

Guest Post - 3/10/17 - A Cowboy's Passion by Anita Philmar #EroticRomance #Menage

Today, Anita Philmar has dropped by to share some tidbits from Book 7 in her Naked Bluff series. If you fantasize about having two hot cowboys pleasure you at the same time, you will love this book.



Excerpt:

"And how do you plan to control me?"

He toyed with the knot of her robe, untied it, and shoved the garment off her shoulders. His dark gray eyes fell to the heavy swell of her breasts. A wicked grin played on his lips. Slowly, his gaze lifted to meet hers. "I, like you, have my ways."

She cupped her hands over his shoulders and rose onto her knees. The idea of him trying to bend her to his will enflamed the submissive hunger buried within her soul. Gab had played the part of being a dominant partner at times but never demanded she submit to his will in every aspect of their life. Hell, he had even allowed John to be in charge while they enjoyed each other.

 Now, without her husband's protection, Reece appeared to want the job of setting down the rules of engagement. Tess smiled at the thought of the pleasure they could give each other and moved her rock hard nipples to within easy reach of his mouth. "This could be fun."

He tilted his head and rubbed his hands over her ass as if warning her to behave. Naughty thoughts raced through her head. Visions of them together tempted her. "Just as long as you understand I call the shots."


Blurb:

Tess Van Pelt doesn't have time to grieve the loss of her husband, not when the wolves are already at the door.  Still, she has a lover that is willing to help save her. He introduces her to his cousin, Reece Bristol Smith.

As a lawyer, Reece can keep the debtors at bay. The problem or solution is he can't keep his hands off Tess. With her deceased husband accused of murder and the major creditor making unreasonable demands, Reece has to secure Tess's future in the best way he knows how. 

Now, will Tess trust him and his cousin to keep her safe or will he need to teach her a few lessons in handing over control to him?

A Cowboy's Passion is a hot adult erotic mystery that explores the passion of having multiple partners. MFM

Frisky Friday - Amazon Knock-offs


When Fortune published their article on Amazon Knock offs, these books were available.  However, Amazon has since removed most if not all of them.   I even tried to purchase the "Fifty Shades of Grey" knock-off "Thirty-five Shades of Grey" at Createspace, (I'd already purchased all three of the originals and was curious how close the knock-off was to the original) but it wasn't available for purchase there either.

The idea behind the knock-offs is to confuse the reader into purchasing the "wrong" book.  It's not nice to fool your readers, so Amazon did the responsible thing and took these books down.  Since most of these books were published by Amazon's Createspace self-publishing division, I doubt any sanctions were made against the authors, but hopefully Amazon will be more careful to make sure any books that could potentially confuse readers are properly identified in the future.

I wrote a previous article on knock-off covers, but these books are knock-offs on the material and the original books in question.

Below is a list of the books Fortune found.



"Fifty Shades of Grey" by E.L. James vs. "Thirty-five Shades of Grey" by J.D. Lyte

This cover is not at all similar to Stieg Larsson's Book

"The Girl of the Dragoon Tattoo" by Stieg Larsson vs. "I am the Girl with the Dragon Tattoo" by Karen Peebles (CD only)

"New Moon" by Stephanie Meyers vs. "Twilight New Moon" by Alexandre (no cover though the item is reportedly still available from Amazon through Coy24)  Since Alexandre Desplat did the score for New Moon, I'm not sure if this is a knock off for the book, or the music.  However, the listing for this item on Amazon has an "unknown binding" and sells for $7.57 with a $3.99 shipping charge.  


"Thinking, Fast and Slow" by Daniel Kahneman vs. "Fast and Slow Thinking" by Karl Daniels

Moral of the story, caveat emptor.  Make sure when you're shopping on the Internet that you are purchasing the item you intended to purchase.
