Spank or Treat Prize Listings

Today is the long waited for announcement of the Spank or Treat Grand Prizes.

The generosity of Blushing, LazyDay, Decadent, Stormy, Blondie’s Place, and Discipline and Desire is truly stunning. All participants received up to 22 entries toward the prize drawing (1 per comment on each author’s blog, 3 for VIP status, 5 for completion, and 1 for ambassadorship). All prize winners were randomly chosen from this pool.

Wizards in Publishing, a consultation service owned by Kate Richards and Valerie Mann, offered a pre-publication consultation for an author’s manuscript of up to 15K. The lucky winner of this prize is none other than Normandie Alleman! Best of luck in your writing and publishing, Normandie! I hope you’ll enjoy your prize.

Decadent Publishing offered an ebook bundle, details determined after the prize is awarded. Our very own Rogue, aka the wielder of the paddle, will get to enjoy some new spicy books…and perhaps get some new ideas. :)

Discipline and Desire, a subscription site that offers a wealth of M/F spanking stories, offered a six-month membership. Our lucky winner is none other than Autumn who delighted us with her fan fiction last week. Now you’ll get some new ideas for your spanking fun!

Blondie’s Paddles, a husband-and-wife online shop, offered a custom-made paddle to Mary McCoy! Blondie will talk with you to help decide what kind of paddle you would like.

Stormy Nights, a publisher of spanking fiction, offered a $20 Amazon gift certificate to Spanking101, our loyal fan of all things spanking. Many happy spanking stories lie in your future!

Blushing Books, one of the oldest publishers of spanking fiction, offered a $50 gift certificate to their online bookstore. The lucky winner is Angieia Kroemer. If you don’t have a Blushing account yet, let Blushing know and they will help you set it up..

LazyDay Publishing, a publisher that takes all genres and pairings of spanking fiction, offered a $100 gift certificate to their online bookstore. Traveling Gal will have the pleasure of browsing through the book listings. M/F, F/F, M/M…it’s all there!.

Blushing Books also donated an ereader, to be chosen by the winner between a Kindle Fire and Nook HD. This is a fabulous prize and will make it easier for TL Bucko to download all of the free spanking stories available..Congratulations, everyone! You will be contacted about the details of your prize, so please respond promptly. If you do not respond by Sunday, a new winner will be chosen for your prize.

The “best of the best” comments will be featured next week on Wednesday on Governing Ana. We had some insightful, witty, and laugh-out-loud comments that have been re-read and treasured by the authors.

Don’t forget to come back for the Advent Calendar from December 1st to December 25th! Look for details in a post mid-November.

Also, save the date for Love Spanks 2014! February 7-9 will be a weekend filled with spanky stories, more prizes, and fun!

I hope to be participating in both of the above events.  As for my own winner, it's Cat at Cat's Bright Eyes, who will receive a winner's choice of one of my eBooks.  Cat, I will send you an e-mail under separate cover later today with the information so you can choose.

Thanks to all who entered, and I look forward to seeing many more of you in the following months.

Get Hot and Bothered with the Wet, Wild and Sizzling Hot-Hop #wildhop

http://www.skyewarren.com/hop/

Welcome to the Wet and Wild Blog Hop hosted by Skye Warren.  Do you like sexy books where the characters are so steamy they fog up your glasses?  Well, then, you've come to the right place.  But before I get you all hot and bothered, I want to tell you about the GRAND PRIZES you'll be eligible for if you leave a comment on this post.  They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so check out the photo below for the swag....

In addition to the prizes above, I am offering a reader's choice of an eBook copy of any one of my four books.  You can check them out below if you're interested, but you don't need to make your choice now.  If you win, I'll repeat the selection and you can tell me which one strikes your fancy then.

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

For 18+ only excerpts to Arrested by Love and A Dom's Dilemma, please visit:

http://www.kathrynrblake.com/spankingromance.html

To enter, please leave a comment telling us what you find sexy in erotic novels (e.g., the hero nibbling gently on the heroine's favorite erotic zone, or the heroine digging her nails in the hero's back while she screams his name in ecstasy, etc.)  Whatever floats your boat, we want to know what you find exciting in the books you read.  What turns you on.  Make sure you leave your e-mail address in your response so we can get back to you.

Hope you have a lot of fun hopping about, and wishing you great luck on your journey.  After you've left your comment, use the linky list below to hop over to your next blog.

Six Sentence Sunday - October 21 - Arrested by Love #SixSunday

FOR ALPHA MALE BLOG HOP, PLEASE SCROLL DOWN.

This material is Not Safe For Work. If you’re not over 18, please explore elsewhere.

Welcome to my 6SS where I hope to provide you with tiny little tidbits of the most sexy and sensuous moments in my books. Just 6 sentences, that I intend to build from my Horny Hump Day 3 sentence feature. The books might be already published, works-in-progress, or even sentences from other sexy books I think you’ll like.  Of course, I will properly attribute all works, even mine.

Welcome back to Horny Hump Day, a regular Wednesday feature! In this blog loop, we hope to provide you with tiny erotic tidbits of the most sexy and sensuous moments in our books. Just 3 sentences.  And boy is that hard to do, sometimes....

My post for this Sunday is from my 3rd book, Arrested by Love. An erotic spanking novel published by Blushing Books.

In this scene, a continuation from my Six Sentence Sunday of September 23, Kyle is slowly making love to Tiffany, except she wants him to go harder, faster and deeper.  But Kyle, still worried about Tiffany's fragile state of health, insists upon doing things his way.  Finally, in desperation, Tiffany grabs his butt to press him even deeper into her, but rather than give in, Kyle lets her know who rules the roost.  Of course, Tiffany protests.

* * * * *

                "Please, Kyle," she groaned.

                "We'll get there eventually, Tiff, just enjoy the ride in the meantime."

                "But you're taking too long.  I want to go on a jet plane, and you're insisting we ride the slow boat to China.  Please…?  I won't break, honest."

                "No, and that's final.  Push me again, and you'll find yourself on a paddle wheeler for a very bumpy ride."

* * * * *

M/F, Sexy spankings in rural Connecticut.

If you're 18 or older, you can read the first three chapters at Arrested by Love
Buy the book directly from Blushing Books, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, ARE

I hope you enjoyed this sneak preview. Your comments are encouraged. Please stop by the Six Sentence Sunday site to get a peek at the offerings the other authors for 6SS.

Six Sentence Sunday

Six Sentence Sunday - September 16 - Mortal Illusions #SixSunday

Want the Bitten by Paranormal 18 & Over blog hop, please scroll down

This material is Not Safe For Work. If you’re not over 18, please explore elsewhere.

Welcome to my 6SS where I hope to provide you with tiny little tidbits of the most sexy and sensuous moments in my books. Just 6 sentences, that I intend to build from my Horny Hump Day 3 sentence feature. The books might be already published, works-in-progress, or even sentences from other sexy books I think you’ll like.  Of course, I will properly attribute all works, even mine.

My current post for 6SS, is from my 1st book, Mortal Illusions. A vampire romance published by New Concepts Publishing, Mortal Illusions is currently the first in a projected series of 3 books.  Its sequel, Fatal Desire, is currently under production.

In this segment, a continuation of my August 26 Six Sentence Sunday, Claire Daniels is torn between her fear and her desire for Germaine after she's witnessed the start of what appeared to be his group torturing another woman.  When she demands to know exactly what his followers were doing to the mortal female, Germaine refuses to say.  With the sober knowledge that some things can't be explained, they have to be shown, he continues a slow, methodical seduction intended to bring Claire to a painful point of arousal.  When her pleading for release grows frantic, he holds her in place and calmly explains how her current discomfort is mild compared to the punishment she witnessed.  

* * * * *

                Claire could only stare at him.  Her mind instantly rejected what he was telling her, but her body forced her to accept the truth.  Like those other women, her present need exceeded her scruples.  She ached terribly, and at the moment it didn't matter what he'd done if he would only finish what he'd begun.  Her fingers, still lodged in his hair, tightened their grip as she fought to deny her need, but she knew it was a battle she had already lost.

                Tears of defeat spilled from her eyes.  “I didn't believe you could be so cruel.”

* * * * *

M/F, Contemporary vampire romance in a society based on D/s.

Read the first three chapters at: Mortal Illusions

Buy the book at NCP, Amazon or Barnes & Noble.

I hope you enjoyed this nibble. Your comments are encouraged. Please stop by the Six Sentence Sunday site to get a peek at the offerings the other authors for 6SS.

Six Sentence Sunday

Hot Summer Heroes are Hopping!

Welcome to the "Hot Summer Heroes" Blog Hop!  As you hop from blog to blog you will find yourself confronted with a wonderful array of prizes including the grand prize of a $100 Barnes & Noble gift card.

So, what are the qualities you believe makes a man a hero?  All of my heroes are extremely protective of their ladies.  Admittedly, that is a trait most women admire in their men.  However, when these guys take their responsibilities a little too seriously, they tend to become dominant autocrats who are impossible to reason with.  And that is a trait their ladies struggle to break them of, though not always successfully.

Germaine, my vampire hero from Mortal Illusions, is determined to save the woman he loves from becoming a casualty of the undead, something she seems determined to do despite his cautions.

Dominic, my shape-shifting wizard hero from Deadly Enchantment, desires to save the woman he loves from his inner monster, who he must unleash in order to vanquish the evil that threatens both their lives.

Kyle, my spanking police officer hero from Arrested by Love, insists upon teaching the woman he loves to obey their traffic laws, or suffer the consequences of his displeasure.

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 hero you would like to have in bed with you, and why.  The hop runs through the 19th until midnight on the 20th, so have fun hopping about from hero to hero, but don't let the guys know you're seeing other men.  They can get really possessive.
