Holiday Cheer!

Today, I'm guest blogging at Anna Kathryn Lanier's Holiday Cheer. In addtion to a delicious family recipe (if you want something a little different to serve at Christmas), there's an except of Santa's Gift, and I'm giving away a copy to one lucky commentor.

Also, Anna's holding a drawing for a NOOK HD at the end of the month for everyone who leaves a comment!

Santa's Gift Is Live!

Hello, my lovelies!

After much writing, editing, reading, wailing, re-writing, re-editing, and some gnashing of the teeth, Santa's Gift, the first of the Horny Holiday series, has been uploaded!

Per usual, Smashwords is the first to go live, but I'll be updating the other links as they become active.

I had a lot of fun with this story (except for the teeth-gnashing part), and I really hope you enjoy it!

Blurb
Sandra Nicholas finds running the family business a little lonely, especially when she's horny as hell and her only options at the North Pole are reindeer and elves. When global warming forces her to move the toy manufacturing operation, she needs the help of a human industrial engineer. Sexy Scott Bowman fits the bill, but can she keep her hands off him long enough to save Christmas?

***Warning! This story is meant for readers 18 years of age and over. For my regular readers, this story severely departs from my usual style in that it involves a heterosexual relationship between one man and one woman. I apologize if this subject matter offends some of you.

It also includes innovative uses of Christmas ribbon and reindeer harness, a ball gag, oral sex, reindeer sexual harassment, and some really bad t-shirt puns.

Novella, approximately 28,000 words or 94 printed pages

Santa's Gift is currently available through:

The Next Big Thing

Hello, My Lovelies!

Fellow author Suzan Harden has nominated me for The Next Big Thing, where I answer questions about my latest work in progress. If you'd like to check out Suzan's answers, go to her blog Wild, Wicked & Wacky.

What is the working title of your next book?

I'm feverishly doing the last minute edits to Santa's Gift. Just took a few minutes to fill out this questionnaire.

Where did the idea come from for the book?

I was searching for a cover photo for another story when I stumbled across this delightful minx in a Santa hat (see photo to the left). My perverse mind took things from there.

What genre does your book fall under?

Erotic fantasy romance.

Which actors would you choose to play your characters in a movie rendition?

The young lady on my cover is definitely Sandra Nicholas, the current incarnation of Santa Claus. I see the delicious Chris Hemsworth as Scott Bowman, the human industrial engineer she must hire when the melting polar ice cap forces her to relocate her toy factories.

What is the one-sentence synopsis of your book?

With nothing but reindeer and elves for company, Santa needs her own sexy surpise, but what happens when she's the one gift-wrapped and wanting more?

Will your book be self-published or represented by an agency?

It will be published through Angry Sheep Publishing.

How long did it take you to write the first draft of your manuscript?

Roughly four weeks, but it's a novella.

What other books would you compare this story to within your genre?

My work is usually compared to Selena Kitt, Red Pheonix or Lyla Sinclair. This story's a little sweeter than my usual wont, but there's still hot sex in an elevator and creative uses of Christmas ribbon and reindeer harnesses.

Who or What inspired you to write this book?

As I said, I was searching for cover photo ideas for another book when I stumbled across this one. The idea for the opening scene popped into my head.

What else about your book might pique the reader’s interest?

If you need something to get you in the mood after a hard day of Christmas shopping, then this is the story for you!

I'm on Facebook Now

Yes, my lovelies, Lyla Sinclair is a Class A-1 domme, and she definitely applied the lash.

(Of her tongue. Really, you have dirty little minds!)

Lyla nagged until I finally signed up for a Facebook account. So if you'd like to check it out, CLICK HERE.

In the meantime, back to the writing...
