Guest Post - 12/27/2018 - Festive Fire by Libby Campbell #Holiday #Giveaway #Romance

This spicy holiday romance is a gift, available through ProlificWorks (formerly Instafreebie) 

Excerpt:

“You’re not just smoking hot, you’re smart too.” Roxy tapped Jax lightly on the chest, before closing her eyes and tilting her head back. “Kiss me,” she said, her voice husky.

He hesitated.

“Please,” she begged. “No one has kissed me for a very long time.”

She seemed so vulnerable, so needy. One brotherly kiss couldn’t hurt.

Their lips touched, chaste and dry. Then she reached up and raked her fingers through his thick, dark hair, drawing him closer. Their mouths opened. He pressed himself against her, molding his muscular body to her softer, more feminine one. Their tongues started to tango. He squeezed her buttocks and she moaned with approval. They were breathing so hard neither of the them heard the first knock at the door.

The second knock was much louder and much more insistent. “Jax? You there, man? It’s Tim.”

Jax and Roxy broke apart and stared at each other self-consciously.

“Gotta go,” Jax said, heading to the front door.

Roxy followed him, hoping for the tiniest indication that he had enjoyed the last few minutes as much as she had.

He opened the door and threw his keys to Tim who was craning his neck trying to get a glimpse of what Roxy’s place looked like.

“I’ll meet you in the car,” Jax said before closing the door and turning back to Roxy. He placed his hands on his hips and looked down at her with an expression of bemused disapproval. “I’d like to see you again,” he said. “Not just at the auction. After that. Socially.”

“I’d like that too.” A warm smile spread across her face.

“On one condition…”

“Yeah?”

“On our first date, I’m going to spank you.”

Roxy’s pussy clenched and her heart threatened to smash its way out of her ribcage. “Okay, I guess.” She wanted to say yes yes yes.

Blurb:

She’s done with men. Until she meets Jax. 

For a year Roxy’s life has been torn apart by lies and innuendos. As Christmas approaches, she finds herself in the company of people who almost destroyed her. Se copes by slugging back glasses of wine until the bottle runs dry.

Fireman Jax has been watching her. When she attempts to drive home, he steps up, takes her car keys, and tells her such irresponsible behavior will not be tolerated. As soon as she’s sober, she’ll be over his knee for a sound spanking. She aghast but secretly panty-wetting hot for him.

Can she submit to his rules?

About the Author:

I’m in love with love. My romance stories feature strong, self-reliant women who challenge the powerful men who love them.

My books are set in the Pacific Northwest, a part of the world I know well and love deeply.

I’ve lived all over Canada, but the best decision of my life was when I moved to Australia to marry my leading man. After many years there, we moved back to the Pacific Northwest. We now live in a leafy neighborhood close to the sea.

My passions are reading and writing. I also love hiking, beachcombing, and an occasional night of dancing.

A Writer's Naughty Thoughts on Valentine's Day with Hopping Good Prizes #Valentine'sDay #Romance

Welcome to the Valentine's Day Gift Hop as we celebrate love, sex, desire, need, and all things books! Our grand prize will be a Kindle Paperwhite and a digital new adult romance basket. Every comment on every blog in the hop will count as an entry toward either of the grand prizes.

Speaking of prizes, take a look at the picture below for all the swag Skye Warren has put together for this hop.

I'm exciting to be a part of this hop, and hope you'll have fun hopping around and reading all the entries.  So, you want to play, right?  Well each of us wants to tell you a little about the romantic moments in our books, when our two main characters have decided to step behind closed doors to do naughty things to each other. Right?  Problem is, we'd be here all day if we attempted to do that.  So, instead, I'll tell you why I write romance, then post the covers of my books and give you links to some excerpts and let you peruse as you wish.

Romance.  Love.  Happily Ever After.  They lift the spirit and make you believe anything is possible.  If tragically flawed characters are able to overcome insurmountable problems and end up living together in happy harmony at the end, there has to be hope for us poor, insignificant worker bees.  Right?  It may be fantasy, but it's also the stuff dreams are made of, and without dreams life would be miserable indeed.  So, I write romance to make you laugh, smile and cry a little, because tears make the laughter all the much sweeter.  Below are the books I currently have available for sale.

For excerpts to Mortal Illusions and Deadly Enchantment, please visit: http://www.kathrynrblake.com/booksreviews.html

For 18+ only excerpts to Arrested by Love, A Dom's Dilemma and Acting Lessons, please visit: http://www.kathrynrblake.com/spankingromance.html

Of course, I need to add to this cornucopia of gifts with my own prize.  I'm going to offer an eBook copy of one my novels (readers choice) to the reader who can tell me what they love (or hate) most about Valentine's Day  Enter a comment on my blog, and it counts as a comment toward the grand prize, too.  What more could you want for Valentine's Day?  (Rhetorical question.  Don't answer that!)

Once you're done playing here, visit some of the other authors' blogs to see what sort of trouble they're getting into this Valentine's Day.  It is a hop, after all.  Valentine's Day Gift Hop.

Have a very Naughty New Year!

For Horny Hump Day, please click HERE or scroll down.

It's the New Year, and I've made my resolutions.  Let's hope I can keep them.

The one resolution I will share with you is my commitment to revise and edit my NaNoWriMo novel so I can submit it to my publisher before the end of February.  Doesn't have a title, yet, but it's based on "Kiss Me Kate," and it's a spanking romance.  Very naughty.  For the curious minded, check out my blog article about the book HERE.

Because I happen to like naughty, I'm participating in this blog hop.  As a further incentive, I'm listing below the grand prizes being offered:

1.     A $100 Gift Card to sexy fun online shop EdenFantasys

2.     An Erotic Bundle – 10 New Releases from Hot Authors

For my part in the hop, I'm offering a reader's choice of one of my eBooks and some goodies, which I will send via snail mail.  Don't worry about making your choice now, I'll give the winner a brief synopsis of each book to help with any decision making.

So, what if any New Years resolutions have you made?  Got any "naughty" ones, and if so, are you willing to share?  To enter the hop, just leave a comment below letting us know one of your resolutions and provide your e-mail address so I can contact you if you win.  Your resolution can be naughty or nice, your choice.  Hopefully, by telling everyone here what it is you're resolved to accomplish will help inspire you to keep the goal you've set.

Please take time to visit the other authors participating in this blog hop.  You should comment only once on each blog, but every comment you make counts toward the grand prize.  Good luck, and I look forward to reading everyone's New Year Resolutions.

Alpha Males Don't Go Hopping from Bed to Bed

s

Nor do they participate in Blog Hops.  I think they find such activities demeaning.  They will, however, gladly go home and get in bed with a woman who desires to have them there, if they are not already in a committed relationship.  So, they can be had.  I love alpha males because of their protective instincts.  I want to feel loved and protected by a man.

All of my heroes are alpha, autocratic and extremely protective of their females.  They are also monogamous,  which means once committed, they do not stray.  They can be a bit overbearing, and occasionally their female needs to bring them down a peg, but they do not stint on their affection.  They love wholly and completely.

I have convinced them to allow me to give one of them away to a lucky female who selects them.  To help you make up your mind, I'll list them below.

 A Dom's Dilemma - Jim

James Andrew Evans has been a police detective for sixteen years, and an active participant as a Dom in the BDSM scene even longer.  So, at age 35 he knows precisely what he wants and expects from the woman he chooses to be his submissive.  Don't be fooled by his warm Texas drawl or laid back and easy going manner.  He is exacting, demanding and controlling.  And he has a wicked right hand that itches to be firmly applied against a soft, female backside, whether she's willing or not.

Arrested by Love - Kyle

Kyle Sinclair, a twenty-eight year old patrol officer, has some old-fashioned ideas regarding women.  Though not a keep 'em barefoot and pregnant kind of guy,  he believed it was a man's duty to ensure the women he was responsible for never forgot who wore the pants in their relationship, which had absolutely nothing to do with the actual clothes they were wearing.  He would never raise a hand in anger to any woman, but he was perfectly willing to warm their behinds when he thought they needed reminding who was in charge.

Deadly Enchantment - Dominic

Though a bastard by birth, Dominic Westcroft was schooled along with his half-brother by a mentor hired to train them how to use their inherited magic wisely.   At age 13, however, Dominic began to understand the stigma of his birth and slowly withdrew from his father's social sphere.  Forging his own path, he discovered the outer fringes of Victorian society.  And it was here that Dominic met the woman he married, then clawed to death in a jealous rage on their wedding night.  At least all the evidence indicated that, so until Dominic was certain he wasn't responsible for his wife's grisly murder, he vows never to allow another woman in his life.

 Mortal Illusions - Germaine

Germaine St. Justine, Broadway producer and financier by day, vampire by night, has decided to forsake women for the remainder of his life.  He refused to make another blood-thirsty monster like himself, and when he discovers the woman he'd loved dying of cancer, the pain of losing her is too strong for him to consider ever enduring a repeat performance.  However, an eternity of cold, lonely nights offers nothing in return, and Germaine is a passionate, domineering man.

One of these three eBook heroes could go home with you at the end of this hop.  To enter, please leave a comment below, along with your e-mail address, letting me know which alpha hero you would like to have in bed with you, and why.  The hop runs through the 19th until midnight on the 22nd, so have fun hopping about from hero to hero, but don't let the guys know you're seeing other men, or you may find yourself draped over one of their knees.

Please see the information on the three grand prizes being offered as well.

We have THREE grand prizes. You as a reader can go to EACH blog and comment with your email address and be entered to win. Yep, you can enter over 200 times!

Now what are those prizes?

1st Grand Prize: A Kindle Fire or Nook Tablet

The Romance Reviews - Join the Erotic Romance Madness

I'm really excited to be joining the TRR Erotic Romance Madness Hop.  The book I'm offering for this hop will be "Arrested by Love," my erotic spanking romance.  Why do I love this book?  Because it's the first book I've been able to write where spanking is not only allowed, but encouraged.  All of my books have dominant, alpha heroes who tend to spank the women under their protection.  They do it because they feel spanking, although not politically correct in this day and age, is much better for a relationship than quarreling or separating in anger ever could be.  The woman has to agree to the punishment, of course, and my heroes would never abuse the consent their lady gives to them.

In "Arrested by Love" the hero, a police officer, has been in love with the heroine for many years, but because she is wealthy and young Kyle has struggled to maintain his distance, despite enduring through a number of outrageous pranks intended to tempt him into taking their relationship farther.  However, when Tiffany finally steps across a line Kyle can no longer pretend to ignore, he offers her a choice.  Either she submits to a very painful trip over his knee, or she can spend the night in jail.  Left with little choice, Tiffany agrees to the spanking, which Kyle delivers then obliging follows with reassurance and some passionate kissing that leads to him finally asking Tiffany out on a date.

If you like spanking romances, and are interested in winning a copy of "Arrested by Love" leave a comment below stating why you'd like to read my book and your e-mail address.  Then click the button below and visit the other authors taking part in this wonderful hop.  You don't have to hit them all today.  The hop will be running through until ll:59 p.m. May 14 EDT.  So take your time, and have fun!

Three Hunky Heroes Available for an Easy Pick-up

So, who doesn't love a hunky hero?  They can come in all forms, shapes and sizes as long as they make us want them, in every way.  Not all of my heroes are buff men with six pack abs.  In fact, most aren't.  They are alpha, dominant and incredibly bossy at times, but they can also be sexy as hell.  They aren't cruel or sadistic, although they are clearly capable of inflicting pain when the need arises.  They are men of authority who have the capacity to care deeply, but don't give their heart easily.  And when they fall in love, it is forever, which makes them extremely hunky guys indeed in my mind.

In Mortal Illusions, we have an urbane, slightly aloof but committed vampire who has loved and lost so many times, he refuses to give his heart again.

In Deadly Enchantment, we have a shape-shifting wizard who fears the beast inside him possesses a blood-lust that threatens the woman he loves.

In Arrested by Love, we have a simple cop who is determined to protect the alluringly sexy yet innocent and naive socialite he has adored since she was a child, yet steadfastly resists from claiming as his own.





Different men for different tastes, but all available to go home with a willing woman for the next few days.  If one of the above heroes intrigues you enough to want to slip in bed with him, leave a comment below explaining which one you want, and why, but please only pick one (they are monogamous after all).  And don't forget to leave your e-mail address, so I can get in touch if you win.

If you want to know more about any of the guys, click the title link and read the first three chapters also available on my web site.  And after you've made your choice and left your comment, click one of the links below to learn about one of the other hunky heroes who want to go home with you.

Bitten by Paranormal Romances for 18 & Over Readers

Do you enjoy books about naughty vampires and shape shifters who like to bite when they shouldn't?  Then you've come to the right place.

All of the authors involved in this blog hop are giving away either books, or book related materials.  For my part, I'm giving away a copy of my vampire romance, Mortal Illusions.

In this book my vampire hero is leader of a coven that is very D/s (Dominant/submissive) oriented where they occasionally tie women down as a punishment and....  Well, they do some pretty evil Dom stuff to them.  And when the heroine fears she may be placed in the same position, things unfortunately go from bad to worse.

Broadway--New York City. Bright lights and hot nights.

Despite a nightly, on-stage seduction by her sultry, debonair costar, Claire Daniels doesn't believe vampires are real. Not at first. But her brother is dying and she is desperate enough to believe in anything that might save him. Armed with only her blood and innocence for barter, Claire enters into the dark, silken web of the vampire with the belief that she can seduce one of its most powerful and elusive leaders into helping her save Robert's life. Such illusions, however, will cost Claire far more than she ever bargained for.

Want to read more about it?

If you're intrigued, but want to know more, please visit the Mortal Illusions page on my web site where you'll find excerpts and review snippets.

My Book Boyfriend Blog Hop

<center> <a href="http://readingbetweenthewinesbookclub.blogspot.com/"><img border="0" src="http://i916.photobucket.com/albums/ad3/folksohana/BookBoyfriendHop-1.jpg"width="250" height="350"/></a></center>

My Book Boyfriend Giveaway Hop Hosted is by Reading Between the Wines Book Club & As the Pages Turn Giveaway.  The hop will run from 12:01 AM February 1st through to 11:59 PM February 5th, 2012.

The object of the game is to pick a boyfriend from the books you've read, or written.  This one is hard.  If I had to pick a boyfriend from all the books I've read I'd be in trouble.  There are so many strong, virile, handsome, considerate and protective lovers existing today both in e-readers and on the pages of steamy, romantic novels.  Of course, I also fall in love with the men I create, but I'm fickle because the one I love the most is the one whose story I'm currently working on.  So, given that, I'd have to say my current book boyfriend is Jim in A Dom's Dilemma.  You can see a bit of Jim, though only from Kyle and Tiffany's point in Arrested by Love, so that is the book I will offer readers during this hop.  One copy of Arrested by Love in the format of your choice. If you want to read an excerpt first, you can read the first three chapters on my web site.  Just click here.

If you want to know more about Jim, have a sneak peak at the unedited snippet below from the opening of A Dom's Dilemma.  He's a strict Dom and a police detective, so he has strong opinions on right and wrong and the way things need to be done.  And that's the way he wants them done, of course.  If you like Jim and would like to see more of him in Kyle and Tiffany's story, enter the contest by leaving a comment below as to what you look for in your book boyfriends, and if you win you'll get to cuddle up under your covers with Kyle for an evening or two.  Then hop on over to see which of the other author's boyfriends you'd like to spend time in bed with.

            "Saw your sub come visitin' at the station today, Kyle," Jim Evans mentioned casually, before taking a sip of ice water.  In addition to being another Dom at theVelvet Chains BDSM club, Kyle Sinclair was also a fellow police officer in the same precinct as Jim.  They weren't friends exactly.  More like associates who had an occasional beer together.  "She in trouble?"

            Seated at the bar, Kyle gave a dejected nod without looking up from what Jim thought might be a scotch on the rocks.  "Yeah, you could say that."

            It had been awhile since Jim had seen Kyle's little sub at the club.  He'd always considered her an attractive bundle of fun, and one he'd like to top, if Kyle was willing to let him.  "You intendin' to do a punishment scene with her tonight?"

            Kyle sighed, sounding depressed.  "Looks that way."

            Shoving his hands into the rear pockets of his black slacks, Jim slowly rocked back on his heels, preferring to stand at the bar, rather than sit.  "Mind if I watch?"

            "Not at all," Kyle answered, looking almost--relieved.  "In fact…."

            Jim stood up straighter.  "What?  You lookin' to make a party of it?"

            Kyle shook his head.  "I'm looking to find her another Dom.  Daniel tried to work with her and so did Greg, but I don't think they were strict enough to meet her needs."

            Jim's eyebrow raised.  "A bit of a hellion, eh?"

            "She can be.  She can also be a very sweet submissive when she's mastered properly.  It's just that--I've met someone else…."

            "Got it.  So, tell me a little about your sub, and when she gets here, I'll put her through her paces.  Check how she responds to me.  If I'm pleased, I'll most likely want to scene with her.  I should know within a half-hour or so whether or not I think we'll click."

            "Thanks," Kyle said, the relief in his voice evident.  "I really appreciate this, Jim."
