Dare to Surrender by Lilli Feisty

HE MEETS HIS MATCH.
SHE MEETS HER MASTER.

Art gallery curator Joy Montgomery has never liked her body’s generous curves. And she’s always been too shy to explore her wild side. But tonight, everything is going to change…Desperate to save her job, Joy approaches bad-boy artist Ash Hunter and asks him to exhibit his erotic work at her gallery. Ash agrees on one condition: Joy must pose as his model. But business soon turns to pleasure, as Joy experiences a passion beyond her wildest imaginings and Ash finds more than just inspiration in his voluptuous new muse.

I mean this is the most sincere possible way. I needed some sunshine today like you won’t believe. It’s been a craptastic couple of days for a plethora of reasons that I won’t bother going in to, and we’ve had rain dumping down on us for weeks (which I am so glad is not snow, but still, there’s been no sun), and then today, when I needed it the very most, we got sunshine. It was only for a few minutes, but I happened to be standing outside for it and got a face full of happy light. I am lame, but I was really happy about it. Sometimes you just need a little ray of sun, ya know?

Wicked Sexy by R.G. Alexander

Something magic this way comes…

Wicked ³, Book 1

Callie has always known the Abbotts were different. Witches, though they call themselves “Magians”. They are her second family. Harrison Abbott has been her best friend since they were children. Tucker Abbott, her life-long crush. And their brother, Tyghe? A magical pain in her backside.

When the Abbotts need her human perspective to solve a mystery, she doesn’t hesitate. Especially since it means getting everything she ever wanted. A chance to be one of them, to have magic, even if it’s only temporary.

Someone is attacking young women at Triune, a ritual that helps Magians find their perfect threesome—the match that will complete their magic and their hearts. Callie expected to be dazzled by her first glimpse into the Magian world, but the bone-melting desire between her and the Abbott brothers isn’t part of the plan.

Nor is the decades-old secret that makes her the target of a killer…

Warning: Explicit sex, magical dresses, mind-reading rooms and mind-boggling threesomes.

So, over Christmas, the Mad Madam M said she wanted a desktop image of Treasured, which is her favorite cover of mine, and a book she help me come up with the concept for.

I emailed the super fabulous cover artist, Anne Cain, who I love like a fat kid loves cake, and said I’d like to commission her to make this present for M. Then I thought, why should just M and I enjoy the awesomeness of Anne’s work? So, she made me a couple of different sizes, and I’ve added these to my Extras page.

Here they are! Downloadable desktop images for Treasured. I want to hug them and squeeze them, pet them and call them George. Soooo preeeeetty!

Here’s what mine’s about!

In 2012, the world came to a grinding halt as radiation hit from a massive solar storm. Crops died, animals perished, cities fell, and humans became little more than beasts themselves. Under the threat of starvation, civility was reduced to mere memory. Only the strongest men survived, and physically weaker women and children wasted to nothingness.

More than a century later, humanity struggles in the desert Wasteland that was left. The solar radiation rendered most women infertile, and the population dwindles more with each year that passes. Scattered up and down coasts, isolated cities eke out an existence from fishing, foraging, and hunting for what little game remains. Outside the city walls, men face the threat of pirates and raiders.

There is only one rule in the Wasteland: survive.

Few women remain, divided into four classes: Wanderers, Whores, Breeders, and Priestesses. They are as reviled as they are worshipped, a commodity any man must pay to touch. And to touch a Wanderer, he may pay with his life.

For Ezra, the risk is worth the reward. He’s half-scientist and half-mercenary. People speak his name in the same reverent terror reserved for ancient wrathful gods. He controls and invents the alternative fuel sources that power what is left of technology in the Wasteland, but he must always be ready to fend off those who would take what is his.

And what he wants to be his is Kadira. From her clan of Wanderers, he demands she spend the month of Spring Rites in his bed as the price for her people’s fuel. He’ll gladly deal with her wrath if it means finally having the warrior woman in his arms. The scientist can’t resist the urge to see what he can make react, and what he can make explode. The real experiment will be if he can keep her once he has her where he wants her.

The book. It is in. And I’m spent.

Enjoy the long weekend!
