You choose….


Here are the blurbs for you to choose from for the newest blog story. I hope to have news about Bitter Creek soon. The first plan I had for it didn’t work out, but I’m working on something else at the moment. Don’t worry. It will be coming out at some point. 🙂

#1:


Earth Warriors: Bast


Harvard grad student, Kellan Largent is on the verge of finishing his doctorate on ancient Egyptian religious cults when he stumbles across an obscure reference to the Earth Warrior cult. Thrilled by his discovery, he works feverishly to translate the ancient language. Little does he know that one sentence in a dusty tattered book will engulf him in a battle between good and evil. A battle that could be the end of the world as he knows it.

The stray cat wandering the streets around Kellan’s house is more than an abandoned feline. Bast has roamed the earth from the days when Egypt was young. He’s watched the pharaohs rise and fall. New gods come and go. His purpose has remained the same: Protect the earth at all costs and keep the secrets of the Earth Warriors from mortals. He’s sent to keep Kellan Largent from finding out the truth about the Earth Warriors, but also to keep the unsuspecting college student alive.

One man will do anything for the spell that created the Warriors. He wants immortality and killing Kellan for the secret is just the beginning of the trouble he’ll cause to get what he wants.

Understanding the Past: (Henrich and Mason appear in Understanding Forgiveness, a short story in Shifting Perspectives)


Henrich and Mason have been building a fragile relationship for the past six months, ever since Henrich saved Mason from being killed by a mob of humans.

Mason is learning how to trust Henrich, but knowing that it was Henrich’s father who created him and all of the other shifters causes moments of doubt for Mason. He struggles to open his heart and soul to Henrich.

Henrich thinks Mason was created just for him. His pain and weakness lessens the more time he spends with the snow leopard shifter, but he also understands that he can not hold Mason to him. Mason must choose to stay for their love to grow.

The past has a way of surprising people. Henrich and Mason aren’t ready for the past to appear, but they must find a way to understand it before they can accept their combined future.

Nowhere Diner: Finding Love- excerpt NSFW



Since I’m not ready to give you some blurbs to chose from, I thought I’d give you another excerpt from one of my up-coming releases. Nowhere Diner: Finding Love will be out at the end of July from Amber Allure. Now this hasn’t been edited yet, so any mistakes in it are mine. 🙂

Blurb:


Leaving Minnesota, Timothy Gapin doesn’t have any plans except getting as far away from all the memories as he can before his money runs out. His secret lover has married, breaking his heart and making him chose a life in the open rather than a relationship built on lies.

Little does he know that four days later, he would grab dinner at a diner and find a place to stop. Somehow this diner in the middle of nowhere becomes his home and the people who work there his family. In addition to the workers at the diner, Tim meets Bernie Capley, a long haul trucker who isn‘t all that he seems to be.

Falling in love with Bernie is easy for Tim, but the past has a way of barging into the present, forcing decisions that could affect the future.

Excerpt-(NSFW)

Wandering down the street, we found a club where the driving beat of the music could be heard out on the street. Bernie paid the cover charge and we slipped inside.


“Do you want something to drink?” Bernie pressed his lips to my ear and asked under the pounding of the bass.


Shaking my head, I grabbed his hand and dragged him out onto the dance floor. I let the music take control of my body and I brushed against Bernie’s hard body as often as I could. Encircling my waist with one arm, he drew me closer until our bodies found a rhythm of their own. I slung one arm over Bernie’s shoulder and trailed the other hand down his chest to hook a finger in his waist band, encouraging him with each thrust of my hip to move with me.


We were at the edges of the dance floor where there were more shadows than light. I wasn’t aware of Bernie’s intent until my back hit the wall and he swooped in, claiming my mouth with the ferociousness of a lion on a zebra. He pinned my hands above my head and took me, fucking my mouth with his tongue and drawing moans of pleasure from me.


I arched my back off the wall, but only succeeded in grinding our cocks together. In what seemed like seconds, my shirt was unbuttoned and stripped off, Bernie tucking it in his back pocket. Moving from my mouth, he skimmed down my throat to where my nipples stood, pointed and tight, shamelessly begging for his mouth.


He flicked one nipple with his tongue, teasing it before sucking it into his mouth. I fought his hand, wanting to touch him and feel his heat under my fingers. He bit the little bit of flesh between his teeth, causing me to cry out. He pinched and tugged, building an ache that was connected to my cock. It swelled and leaked. I could feel the wetness from my pre-cum sliding on my underwear.


When his rough fingers grazed my stomach, fumbling with my belt, I thought I’d die. My head fell back and thumped against the wall behind me. He eased away and checked me out.


“Don’t stop,” I pleaded.


“I wasn’t planning on it.”


He unhooked my belt and got my pants opened. Pushing the sides apart, he slipped his hand inside and fisted my cock. I cried out, not caring if anyone saw us.


“That’s it, sweetheart. I want to see you come,” Bernie growled in my ear before paying attention to my nipple, the one he hadn’t tortured.


I became lost in the driving beat of the music and the hard fast strokes of his hand over the sensitive flesh of my shaft. I was consumed by the pressure and pain building at the base of my spine. The ache in my balls told me it wouldn’t be long now.


“Bernie,” I warned, my voice harsh and low.


He heard me under the music and his grin was more of leer. “Do it, baby. I want to feel your come all over my hand.”


Those crude words were all I needed to push me over the edge.


“Fuck.”


I slammed my head against the wall hard enough to see stars and spilled my seed all over Bernie’s hand. He milked every drop I had out by continuing to squeeze and jerk me off until I slumped, chest heaving, into his embrace.

Two New Covers

Nowhere Diner: Finding Love will be out in July. Here’s the unedited blurb:

Leaving Minnesota, Timothy Gapin doesn’t have any plans except getting as far away from all the memories as he can before his money runs out.

Stopping at a diner for dinner, Tim finds more than a good meal, he finds a family and meets Bernie Capley, a long haul trucker who isn’t all that he seems.

Falling in love with Bernie is easy for Tim, but the past has a way of barging into the present, forcing decisions that could affect the future.



And Death or Life will hopefully be out in June. I just completed my first set of edits on it. 🙂 Here’s the blurb for this one.

Noah Wiltson wants nothing more than to be left alone. His father’s candidacy for President forces him to have secrets. Imagine his surprise when a hired killer gives him the means to live his life without doubt or fear.

The killer knows this hit is going to be his last. Whether he chooses to walk away or whether they kill him. He’s never been a team player, so he ends the game on his terms.

A few months later, Noah meets Cain Packert, a man who intrigues and excites him. Only one of them knows the truth. Can they find love amid secrets and threats?



Pretty nice covers, don’t you think? 🙂 Oh and for the person who said to get working on the Dragons story. The story is already done and in the hands of my editor. I’m just waiting for my edits. I’m hoping it’ll be released soon.

Hope you all have a great Monday.

New Coming Soon



Now this would be a pretty cover, don’t you think? 🙂 But unfortunately, it isn’t…lol

I signed a contract with Samhain over the weekend for a new book. No release date yet, but as usual, as soon as I find out, I’ll let everyone know. This book was inspired by two pictures one of my friends posted. And Jambrea, this book is all yours…lol..tattoos and a lot of licking. 😀

Here’s the unedited blurb for Tabloid Star. I’m sure it’ll be slightly different when it comes out.

Can a one-night stand turn into love?

As a bartender at the Lucky Seven club, Joss Bauer has the opportunity to take a guy home every night if he wishes. Working three jobs makes it difficult to connect with anyone at more than a superficial level. Then one night he picks a guy up and takes him home. When the man is gone in the morning, Joss believes nothing will come of it. Until pictures show up on the front page of a tabloid and he finds out his one-night stand wasn’t who he thought he was.

Ryan Kellar’s career is taking off. Advance buzz about his movie says it’s a block-buster, so he goes to the Lucky Seven to celebrate. Going home with the gorgeous bartender is his present, but he leaves in the morning before Joss is awake, not wanting to risk being discovered. He’s shocked and angry when pictures of him and Joss together surface. Had Joss played him for a fool?

Each man has his own problems to deal with resulting from the tabloid pictures. Can they figure out who took them and learn to trust each other as their worlds fall apart?

I can’t wait for you all to meet Joss and Ryan. On Friday, I’ll post the pictures I used for inspiration for the guys. 🙂

Have a great day.

Merry Christmas Eve…



So here we are…another Christmas Eve. Wow…this year has gone by so fast. 🙂 I hope everyone has a great day and night.

I said that I’d be giving you two new blurbs to pick from…not just today, but I’ll let everyone comment until next Monday when I’ll figure out which one is the most popular and start working on it.

Blurb #1: (paranormal, shifter)

Bastet-

Kellan Largent is a grad student at Harvard. His thesis is on ancient Egyptian religious cults. While immersed in his research, he comes across an obscure reference to the Earth Warrior cult. Little does he know that one sentence in a dusty tattered book will engulf him in a battle between good and evil. A battle that could be the end of the world as he knows it.

The stray cat wandering the streets around Kellan’s house is more than an abandoned feline. Bastet has roamed the earth from the days when Egypt was young. He’s watched the Pharaohs rise and fall. New gods come and go. His purpose has remained the same: Protect the earth at all costs and keep the secrets of the Earth Warriors from regular mortals. He’s sent to keep Kellan Largent from finding out the truth about the cult, but also to keep the unsuspecting college student alive.

One man will do anything for the spell that created the Warriors. He wants immortality and killing Kellan for the secret is just the beginning of the trouble he’ll cause to get what he wants.

Blurb #2 (historical, western)

Bitter Creek’s Redemption-

Bitter Creek is a town on the brink of war.

Lines are being drawn and sides taken as two powerful men gather armies of gunfighters. The townspeople are helpless and the law worthless. One man has already died in the opening salvo of this land war. An air of fearful anticipation hangs over the town.

Eagle, the half-breed who works at the livery stable, manages to survive by not taking sides until one day, a stranger rides into town. Eagle’s life changes and he finds that he can no longer hide with his horses, if he wishes to be the man he claims to be.

A stranger comes to town and all hell breaks lose.

Hope you find something you like in either of these two blurbs. 🙂 Have a great and safe day.

New Release


First off, for all of you who are stopping by to read the next installment of Nick of Time, I’ll be posting it tomorrow. I’m postponing it for one day to celebrate the release of my tenth book, Bound by Love, which is available at Samhain right now. 🙂

Blurb:

Two cowboys fall in love. It’s as simple and as complicated as that.


Tyler Newsome is heading home to the Lazy N, tired of the rodeo and tired of always being his charismatic twin’s shadow. It’s time he gets a life of his own—and maybe the man he’s always dreamed of, too.


Ren Alston’s always been attracted to Tyler, but never made a move because of his own mental and emotional baggage. But after years spent taming his demons and gaining control in every aspect of his life, Ren sees the younger man’s return as a sign of good things to come.


But first, they have to deal with Tyler’s twin, past indiscretions and Ren’s brothers. Will these cowboys manage to build a strong foundation of trust and love? Or will their problems be too much for them?


Warning: Explicit manlove. Hot naked cowboys, caramel sauce, spanking, whipping and a new twist on the old fashioned roll in the hay.

Check it out. It’s got a little of everything in it…plus a little BDSM. Not a lot, but Ren just needs to be in control and Tyler likes giving up control. 🙂

Also, I have another review up. This one by Jambrea who is my #1 Stalk…er…Fan…lol. Stop by here and hear what she has to say.

And Jambrea’s muse, Heather, interviewed my muse, Sam, and Ren (one of the main characters in Bound by Love), so if you want to see what my muse is like, stop by and read it here.

One last thing, I’m guest blogging over at Sloane Taylor’s blog today. She’s have a huge birthday party in the month of December with lots of guest authors and she’s giving away a free ebook every day to one lucky person who comments. I’m not sure when my post will go live, but I’ll post the link to her blog and you can check it out here.

Please check all those wonderful blogs out and let me know what you think. If you read Bound by Love, don’t hesitate to tell me what you think of it as well. I can take criticism…for the most part…lol

Have a great day and I promise the next installment will be up tomorrow. 🙂

Coming Soon….



Here’s the good news I’ve been hinting about since last week or so. Samhain has contracted the second in my Love of Sports series. This one is titled High Line and is about Garrett, Kasey’s twin brother. 🙂 It’s scheduled for a February release. I thought I’d share the unedited blurb and a little excerpt to whet your appetite for it.

High Line, Love of Sports Book 2: (copyright c. 2008 T.A. Chase)


One of Hollywood’s sexiest leading men and one of racing’s top drivers. Will they get the green flag for love or will a black flag stop their relationship in its tracks?


Garrett Johnson has every thing he ever wished for. His acting career is taking off, bringing him accolades he’d never imagined. Good friends and family keep his days hopping, but watching his twin brother fall in love exposes the emptiness in Garrett’s life. Emptiness created by the betrayal of his ex-lover.

C.J. Lamont is at the top of the racing world, but his winning record is based on a carefully constructed lie. When his ex-wife tells all in an interview, C.J. can’t think of anything else to do, but run. Just as he hits rock bottom, he’s rescued by Garrett Johnson, Hollywood’s hottest leading man.

Garrett will do anything to help a man from taking the same path as his ex-lover. He offers C.J. a place to heal and a shoulder to lean on. As time passes, the two men grow closer and C.J. realizes he has a decision to make.

After losing everything he worked for, C.J. must decide whether he’s going to rebuild his fictitious life or admit to loving a man who shines brighter than the Hollywood stars.

Warning: Hot man love. Sticky situations with honey. Fast cars and faster men.

Excerpt: (this scene takes place a year before the main events of the story when Garrett and CJ meet for the first time)

Garrett pushed to his feet. “I should be going. My flight is early in the morning.”


“Thanks for coming. I enjoyed it. I haven’t had many people over since moving in.” He took the highball of whiskey and followed Garrett to his front door.


“Thank you for everything you’ve done for me this month, C.J. If you ever need anything or anyone to talk to, call me. I’ll be glad to help out.”


Something in Garrett’s tone or words hit C.J. Afterwards, he never could figure out what made him do it. He gripped Garrett’s arm, pulling the taller man tight to him. He dropped his glass, not caring about the whiskey stain on the carpet. He buried his fingers in Garrett’s hair and brought their lips together.


Garrett’s lips were as soft as C.J. had imagined them to be. Garrett froze for a second and C.J. whimpered, afraid he would push him away. For this moment in time, C.J. wanted to taste a man without worrying about being discovered or exposed. He knew Garrett wouldn’t say anything.


A shudder shook Garrett’s body and the actor wrapped his arms around C.J.’s waist, crushing him to Garrett’s hard chest. Strong hands cupped his ass, rocking their groins together as the kiss went deeper. He opened his mouth to allow Garrett’s tongue entrance. The taste of the beer Garrett had for dinner danced along C.J.’s tongue as he stroked along the inside of Garrett’s bottom lip. Garrett’s warm breath washed over C.J.’s lips when the man moaned.


He followed willingly as Garrett leaned back against the door and spread his legs, cradling C.J. within the space between his thighs. C.J. rubbed his aching erection over the bulge in Garrett’s jeans. A fleeting thought raced through his mind. For the first time in his life, kissing another man felt right. It felt natural instead of something he should be ashamed of or needed to hide.
Tingling traced along his spine and gathered at the small of his back. He was going to come in his jeans. His movements were jerky as his climax built.


The ring of the phone broke their embrace. Fuck, what had he done? C.J. stared at Garrett in horror, realizing he’d broken all his rules. Not only had he kissed a guy, he’d done while he was still married. Shit, he’d just cheated on his wife. It didn’t matter that they were separated and about to get a divorce. He had some honor left.


Garrett panted and C.J. found his own breathing matched the actor’s. He watched the passion dissolve out of Garrett’s green eyes to be replaced with understanding and compassion. The phone stopped ringing.


“I should go.” Garrett ran a thumb over C.J.’s swollen bottom lip. “When you’re free to admit who you really are, come find me.”

Bound by Love excerpt….NSFW



You demanded a Not Safe For Work excerpt from my upcoming release, BOUND BY LOVE. I’m going to treat you to the second encounter between Ren and Tyler.

Here’s the blurb:

Tyler Newsome is heading home to the Lazy N. He’s tired of the rodeo and tired of always being his charismatic twin’s shadow. It’s time he gets a life of his own and maybe the man he’s always dreamed of.

Ren Alston’s always been attracted to Tyler Newsome, but never made a move because of the mental and emotional baggage Ren carried. Ren has spent years taming his demons and gaining control in every aspect of his life. Now that Tyler’s coming home, Ren sees the younger man’s return as a sign of good things to come.

But first, they have to deal with Tyler’s twin, past indiscretions and Ren’s brothers. Will these two cowboys manage to build a strong foundation of trust and love or will their problems be too much for them?


Warning: Explicit manlove. Hot naked cowboys, caramel sauce, spanking, whipping and a new twist on the old fashioned roll in the hay.

Here’s an unedited excerpt….WARNING: HOT MANLOVE FOLLOWING….

Tyler grinned and winked. “Dessert.”


Looking in the bag, Ren burst out laughing. “You have a wild streak hidden under that responsible outside.” Ren pulled out a jar of caramel sauce.


He shrugged, a small smirk tipping the corners of his lips. “You did say it would be the perfect dessert.”


“Makes me want to skip supper.”


Ren crowded Tyler, forcing him to step back until Tyler found his back tight against the wall. Ren put the jar down, entwined his fingers in Tyler’s hair and kissed him again. This kiss was slow and sensual. Tyler gasped when Ren caressed the roof of his mouth.


“Touch me.”


Ren’s whispered command focused Tyler. Give and take. It seemed to him he’d taken from Ren yesterday. He wanted to give something to the older man. He pushed Ren back and before Ren could question him, he flipped their positions. Ren grunted as his back hit the wall.


“Don’t move.”


Ren raised an eyebrow. “Getting bossy?”


“You’ll like this.”


Tyler knelt and rubbed his cheek over the jean-covered bulge in front of him.


“You might be right about liking it,” Ren breathed, hands petting Tyler’s head.


He placed an open-mouthed kiss on Ren’s erection and reached for Ren’s belt buckle. Opening Ren’s pants, he tugged the fabric down over those lean hips and took a deep breath of musk and sex. Ren’s cock sprang proudly from his underwear. Tyler hummed his approval. His lover’s prick was long and thin. Its swollen head was reddish and wept drops of pearly pre-cum.
Leaning forward, he licked the liquid off Ren’s crown, teasing a little by pressing the tip of his tongue in the slit.


“Fuck,” Ren gasped, his hips surging off the wall.


“I want to taste you.” Tyler met Ren’s dark eyes.


“I’m clean.”


He knew he shouldn’t take Ren’s word on it, even if he had known the man all of his life. What would lying get Ren except a blowjob without a condom? Yet he trusted Ren would never do anything to hurt him.


Grasping the base of Ren’s shaft, he sucked Ren down as far as he could. It wasn’t very far. Tyler didn’t have a ton of experience giving blowjobs or receiving them for that matter. He took Ren in until his gag reflex kicked in. He applied suction as he pulled off, pumping with his hand. He took Ren in again.


“So fucking sexy.” With rough fingertips, Ren traced Tyler’s lips where they were stretched around Ren’s prick.


He fixed his gaze on Ren’s face and started moving, switching speed and strength of the blowjob. His tongue became intimately acquainted with Ren’s salty slightly bitter taste. He slid his other hand over Ren’s tense thighs to play with Ren’s balls. Rolling them in his palm, he squeezed. Tyler freed one finger to reach back and scrape a nail over the small patch of skin hiding there.


“Shit, Tyler.”


Ren pushed into his mouth. Tyler relaxed his muscles as best he could and accepted Ren’s cock fucking his throat. His own erection pressed against his zipper and Tyler knew he’d come when Ren did. He’d never come without being touched, but he’d never had a lover as sexy as Ren before.


“Tyler, gonna…” Ren closed his eyes, his movements becoming jerky.


Tyler moaned, swallowing around Ren’s shaft each time it hit the back of his throat.


“Damn,” Ren shouted.


Hot salty cum flooded Tyler’s mouth, He drank it down as fast as he could, but some leaked out and dribbled down his chin. He massaged Ren until his lover had given everything. Tyler licked the softening cock clean, only pulling away when he heard Ren murmur. Placing a quick kiss on Ren’s stomach, he climbed to his feet.


Ren wiped the line of white liquid off his chin with his tongue. “Do you need me to take care of you?”


He rested on Ren’s body and shook his head. “No. I came when you did.”


“Really?” Ren sounded pleased.


“Yeah.” He grimaced at the feeling of the wet sticky mess he’d made of his jeans.

Hope you all have a great Thursday. 🙂

Samhain news…



yep…I have another book contracted with Samhain. Just got the news yesterday that they have my signed contract in hand. (I don’t like to mention anything until the publisher has the contract. Just in case something happens…lol)

This is another cowboy story, but it has light BDSM overtones as well. I happened to finish it and sub it the week before one of the other editors at Samhain issued a call for submissions to a cowboy anthology. Oh well. This’ll work out better for me, I think. 🙂

December is the tentative release month.

Here’s the unedited blurb:

Two cowboys fall in love. It’s as simple and as complicated as that.

Tyler Newsome is heading home to the Lazy N. He’s tired of the rodeo and tired of always being his charismatic twin’s shadow. It’s time he gets a life of his own and maybe the man he’s always dreamed of.

Ren Alston’s always been attracted to Tyler Newsome, but never made a move because of the mental and emotional baggage Ren carried.

But first, they have to deal with Tyler’s twin, past indiscretions and Ren’s brothers. Will these two cowboys manage to build a strong foundation of trust and love or will their problems be too much for them?


Warning: Explicit manlove. Hot naked cowboys, caramel sauce, spanking, whipping and a new twist on the old fashioned roll in the hay.

In other news, I finished up the second Love of Sports book, High Line last night. That will get submitted to my editor at Samhain by the end of the week. Then it’s on to a new book. 🙂

Hope everyone has a great Wednesday.
