Blurb:
Melina Cruisse set out on a tropical Sanovi Island vacation with one goal in mind: to find the wild woman hidden behind her small town persona. Deciding that she’d have three flings over the summer, she cast inhibitions to the wind, and set out to snag her a man. What she didn’t plan on was waking up inside a strange mansion, naked, and told she couldn’t leave.
Devon Guy watched the beautiful woman dance nude under the moon and vowed to take her home. Convincing her to spend the summer with him shouldn’t be too hard–-he was the King of Sanovi, and everyone obeyed him. Everyone except the fiery enchantress who wasn’t afraid to control him in the bedroom…or the pool… Until her headstrong ways led her straight into danger on the other side of the island…
Excerpt:
He smiled. “I have a proposition for you.”
She waited to hear what this included, but he sat there with that damn dimple showing. Fine! She nodded to let him know she listened.
“I’d like you to live here for three months. At the end of the three months, if you are not one hundred percent happy, I will deliver you to the airport myself and wish you well.” He didn’t move from his relaxed position on the chair.
The two attractive serving women returned at an awkward moment in the conversation, placed a dish of custard in front of each of them, and cleared their plates. Melina’s gaze swung to Devon’s face. How did he know custard was her favorite dessert?The women took their exit, and she scooped right into the soft, creamy delight. She lingered over the spoon and sighed. Holding the rich custard in her mouth to savor every tantalizing drop, she ignored the pressing matters that she and Devon discussed.
The treat ended too soon. She set her spoon in the bowl with a clatter and turned to the master of the house. “What’s in it for you?”
“I get you in my bed for at least three months, maybe longer.” He set his own spoon down.
“Your bed! That’s rich. If I remember correctly I practically came at the sight of you last night, but I woke up alone this morning. Nuh-uh, no, thank you. You’d be boring in bed.” She stood up, and he clamped his hand around her wrist.
In one swift move, he stood beside her. She didn’t even see him get up off the chair.
“Let me prove it.” He lowered his mouth to her ear and whispered, “Give me tonight. If you are not completely satisfied and screaming my name, you can walk out the door tomorrow.”
She didn’t move a muscle. His lips wandered around the lobe of her ear, and the warmth from his breath sent shivers down her spine.
She cleared her throat to hide the effect of his caress. “Can we try out the circle bed in my room?”
His mouth moved down the side of her neck. Her nipples hardened beneath the silk sundress. He nodded his head, and without another word from him, she already knew her answer.
“How about that weird bench?” she whispered, her head falling back under his manipulations.
“Anything for you.”
She inhaled through her nose and puckered her lips to exhale. Her heart pounded, and she tried to calm herself down. One more thing she needed to do before she gave him her final decision.
She dropped her hand down, cupped his crotch, and found a fully aroused cock. Oh thank God! “Okay, you’ve got one night to prove you are man enough for Melina Cruisse.”
She stood on tiptoe, raised her mouth, and moved in for a celebratory kiss. He laid his finger over her lips, and she pouted. Didn’t they just agree to have wild monkey sex all night long?
“Go with Manuel. I have everything planned and will be down in a few minutes.” He swatted her ass in a childish way to hurry her out of the room. Manuel appeared out of the blue to escort her back to her room.
She rode the elevator back in silence. That silly Chinese fortune cookie that she’d opened before planning her vacation taunted her, and she chewed on the inside of her cheek. Live the moment, the tiny slip of paper read. It appeared that she indeed would live the moment, with the king of Sanovi.
Manuel led her back into her area. This is what she wanted all along. An experience to last a lifetime. Away from home, where she dared to come out of the modest shell she found herself wearing, and able to play out her wildest erotic fantasies.
“Let’s get you undressed, Miss Cruisse. Mr. Guy will be down here promptly, so you must be ready.” Manuel undid the buttons on the back of her dress.
“Can I ask you something before you go?” She raised her arms, and he slipped the dress over her head.
He sighed. “If you must.”
“He…he won’t hurt me, will he?” She turned to study Manuel for any sign that he lied for his employer.
He shook his head and smiled. “No, he is the gentlest of lovers.”
“You’ve had him?” Her hands came up to cover her bare boobs.
He chuckled. “Of course not! He is only interested in the females.”
“Whew…scared me for a moment. I thought that explained why he hasn’t jumped my body when it seems I’m throwing myself at him. He’s awful standoffish, even if he does have a special way of making a woman cream her jeans just by being in the same room with him.” She lowered her hands.
“Get up in the bed now and look…provocative. I believe you Americans call it ‘playing the bunny’?” He held her hand.
She managed to climb atop the bed without sliding off and stretched out. With the silks cool and seductive against her skin, she squirmed around to find a comfortable position.
“Can I ask you another question?” she asked.
He rolled his eyes. “Yes, but then I need to leave.”
“Is he as controlling in bed as he is the rest of the time?” She flipped her hair over one shoulder. The idea that he might be sent a quick little jolt throughout her lower torso.
“That you will have to find out for yourself.” He bowed and walked out of the room. At the door,
he turned. “Relax, you will enjoy yourself.”

With five more floors to go down to the lobby, she didn’t have much time. She slipped her hand in the waistband of her pleated navy blue slacks, and her middle finger slid down and homed in on her clit. Her shoulders dropped, her head fell back, and a tiny purr came from deep inside.
The thought of Darren always created a spark in her body that ached to ignite into a roaring fire. Seldom did she achieve satisfaction from her own fingers, but required the master skills of someone more powerful, more controlling, less self conscious. He’d spoiled her for anyone besides him.
The way he ordered her about, pushed her past her boundaries, and showed her what her body was capable of doing became habit forming. She wanted more. More orgasms, more conquests, more daring behavior to feed the hunger for the extreme.
Unable to satisfy her body’s desire and not allowed to disobey Darren’s orders, she waited for the ding to signal the doors to open. She removed her hand in time to not be caught diddling her clit by the incoming crowd. Several men in business suits stepped into the elevator box and gave her a knowing smile. She lifted her chin and exited without a backward glance. Her musty, aroused state must have given away her secret.
That’s how Darren found her those many months ago. He sniffed her out of a crowd one night at a local hot spot where women prowled for one-night stand. Unable to participate, because of the chance at rumors getting back to the office, she held back. It wouldn’t do for her employees to know that the boss lady let her emotions control her sex drive. Aloof and above the others, she couldn’t help the way she’d stared at the man at the bar. Instantly, she’d known he was a man who’d dominate her.

Alicia lost the tennis match, but she didn’t plan to go home without winning. Surprising her coworkers, Garrett and Pete, she strolled into the club’s sauna and asked for another game. This one involved playing doubles.
Hot, steamy, and sexy, the three athletes prove that you can win off the court.
Excerpt
“Hey, champs.” Alicia stepped inside the room with a towel wrapped around her body. “You guys mind if I share the men’s sauna? Maintenance has a sign up in the woman’s locker room telling us not to use ours.”
Pete cleared his throat and scooted over. “Sure, come sit down.”
Her gaze went from one to the other, taking in her perfect timing. “Guess I don’t need this, since you’re both naked.”
She undid the knot above her breasts and let the towel fall to the floor. Her head rolled backward, causing her dark hair to cascade farther down her slender back. “God, the heat feels good. My shoulders are so tight.”
“Come sit in front of me. I’ll massage the kinks.” Pete widened his muscular legs and pointed at the bench beneath him.
She’d love to tell him where he could put his hands. “What if I like a little kink?” She raised an eyebrow. “From both of you?”

Living in the bush of Alaska, Chloe Barrant wanted to take care of the animals at her wildlife refuge and ignore the times she shifted into a lynx. Even she knew that wasn’t normal. Little did she know that the day she’d turn away the poachers she’d find a male lynx coming to her rescue. What surprised her even more was when the lynx turned into a man claiming her as his life mate.
Granger, alpha of the Lynx clan, would do anything to protect the Lynx. They’d lost too many members to the hunters who preyed on them. Finding his alpha life mate gave him back dreams for the future that he’d given up on long ago.
Chloe didn’t understand how the other Lynx expected her to fill the alpha role within the clan, when around Granger she only wanted to slip into beta role and submit to him. Could she figure it all out in time to save the Lynx?
Excerpt
“Granger?”
He kissed the top of her head. “Yes, Aningan?”
“I don’t understand any of this. Why can’t I run from you? My head tells me I should be afraid, but my body wants to curl up around you and never leave.” She sniffed. “I’m scared.”
“Chloe.” He pulled her up and helped her sit next to him on the couch. “There, that will help. It is our body’s way of celebrating our finally coming together.” He gathered her hand in his. “I don’t mean to frighten you, but what happened today pushed me to come for you. I was going to wait for you to heal from you father’s death.”
Her head came up, and she stared at him. “How do you know about that?”
“I’ve been watching you.” He smiled. “I found you out running in the woods one day in your lynx form, and couldn’t understand why I was attracted to an animal.” He laughed at the way her mouth fell open. “I had to know more about you.”
“You’ve been spying on me?” She sat up straighter but did not pull her hand from his grasp.
He chuckled and shook his head. “No, I’ve been watching over you. There is a difference.” He grinned. “You are a submissive to my alpha status. You do not have control over shifting or the capabilities to protect yourself yet. I can help you with that.”
“Can you stop it?” She squeezed his hand. “I don’t want to shift.”
Granger shook his head. “No, Aningan. You are a shifter of the Lynx.” He cocked his head to the side. “Do you remember how or when you changed?” He caressed the side of her face with his knuckles. “Seldom do we find one of our own living alone.” He brushed a wayward strand of hair from her face. “All this time, and I had no idea my mate lived so close by.”
She swallowed and nodded. “For many years I’ve wondered and worried over how I am different. The one thing I keep going back to is the bite I suffered from an injured lynx when I was eleven years old.” She caught her lower lip between her teeth and tilted her head back to gaze up at Granger. “That doesn’t make sense, though. People don’t turn into an animal because of a bite. Think of how many dog shifters the world would have if it happened that way.”
“You’re right. A bite must come from a shifter. A regular animal doesn’t have the ability to infect.” He swept the hair back off her forehead. “It’s possible that the lynx that bit you came from the Lynx family.”
Her brows came down. “But, I didn’t shift until after I turned thirteen. That was two years later.”
Granger smiled. “Tell me, did you start your period around the same time?”
Chloe’s eyes widened, and she sat up even straighter. “Yes.”
“People who are not born shifters don’t get their full power to change until they go through puberty.” He chuckled. “The need to go into heat plays havoc with someone young and inexperienced. I imagine it took you by surprise each time you shifted, yes?”
She nodded. “That means the lynx at the refuge wasn’t a true animal.”
“Yes.” He let her get off the couch, but his gaze followed her across the room. “I believe that is what happened to you. Although, I thought I knew every lynx shifter in the area.” He shrugged. “So many years ago… The person who infected you is probably long gone.”
Lovve the excerpt. Sure excited for your newest release! I definitely look forward to reading your book.
