Out of Bounds available
Can a sexy nightclub owner convince an all star basketball player to risk it all?
Love of Sports Book 1.
Professional basketball player Kasey Johnson makes a point of keeping his sexual preference under guard and out of the public eye. Empty, off-season flings are all he can look forward to until he retires. He figures his secret is safe—until he meets Ingram Fletcher, a nightclub owner who ignites a passionate inferno in his body.
Gram has lusted after Kasey ever since the long, tall basketball player was traded to Phoenix a year ago. But with Kasey’s twin brother running interference, up until now Gram’s been unsure if it’s safe to make a play. Then some incidental contact in the crowded club leads to a kiss that starts Gram wondering if a relationship is possible—now, and beyond March Madness.
A romantic weekend together answers that question. Now the only one remaining is if Kasey is ready make a fast break out of his comfort zone.
Warning: This title contains explicit sex, graphic language, nekkid man love, creative usage of chocolate, whipped cream and strawberries.
Finally….
My cover for my upcoming Samhain release, Out of Bounds. It’s on the coming soon page at Samhain as well. There’s no blurb up there, so I’ll post the unedited version here for you all. It’s been given the release date of April 22. Of course, none of those dates are set in stone. In case something happens. 🙂
Here’s the blurb:
Professional basketball player, Kasey Johnson, likes guys, but he keeps those longings out of the public eye. Kasey’s secret is safe until he meets a nightclub owner who ignites a passionate inferno in his body.
Ingram Fletcher owns Liverpool, the most popular gay club in Phoenix. He’s lusted after Kasey since they first met a year ago. Unsure of Kasey’s preferences, Gram has never made a move, but a kiss in a crowded club starts Gram wondering if a relationship would be possible.
Spending a romantic weekend together, Kasey and Gram realize that what starts as simple lust can blossom into love.
Hope everyone is safe, warm and has a great Friday.
Home of his Own…
Home of his Own, Tony’s story, is listed in the Coming Soon thread at SiN. Stop in and check it out. I’ve posted the blurb there. I’ll see about putting up an excerpt soon. Also, there’s a bonus story at the end of HohO. It’s titled Where His Home Lies and is about Randy and Les. 🙂
Hope everyone has a great Sunday.
Pimping Books…
I’m pimping my own book today. Though this isn’t the right cover. As soon as I get the right one, I’ll post it. *new cover* Shifting Perspectives is an shifter anthology featuring me, Emily Veinglory and Fiona Glass. I’ve read Emily and Fiona’s stories and loved them. They did a wonderful job. My story, Understanding Forgiveness, is a sweeter story than I usually write. I hope you enjoy it though.
Here’s the blurb for the anthology:
Not everyone is a shifter by choice. In T.A. Chase’s Understanding Forgiveness a shifter must learn to embrace who and what he is and forgive the son of the man who genetically manipulated him and held him in a cage.
Fiona Glass entertains us with Feathered Friend, a story about a man who finds a surprise in his bird coop.
In Emily Veinglory’s The Rat Burglar a guard protecting an ancient artifact meets a charming man who is intent on robbing his museum.
Wednesday WiPs
You’ve probably noticed the newest covers on my books section in the side bar here at my blog. 🙂 And it might be all screwed up like it is on my computer screen here at work, but I promise when I was doing it at home, they all lined up perfectly…lol.
So yes, I do have a book coming out from Samhain in April of 2008. It’s called Out of Bounds and is the first in my Love of Sports series. I figured since I haven’t talked much about it, I would post the blurb for you all to read. This one is about a professional basketball player who falls in love and has to make the decision on whether to come out or lie.
Professional basketball player, Kasey Johnson, likes guys, but he keeps those longings out of the public eye. Kasey’s secret is safe until he meets a nightclub owner who ignites a passionate inferno in his body.
Ingram Fletcher owns Liverpool, the most popular gay club in Phoenix. He’s lusted after Kasey since they first met a year ago. Unsure of Kasey’s preferences, Gram has never made a move, but a kiss in a crowded club starts Gram wondering if a relationship would be possible.
After a romantic weekend together, Kasey and Gram realize that what starts as simple lust can blossom into love.
This blurb might change over the course of edits, but at the moment, it’s what I’ve got. Kasey happens to have a twin brother, Garrett, who is an openly gay movie star. I’m working on his story next. He falls for a recently ‘outed’ NASCAR driver. It hasn’t been contracted yet though. So I’ll keep you posted on that one.
On to the word count updates:
Home of his Own: 39,142/50,000 (390 words)
Dreaming of Dragons: 652/50,000 (0 words)
Devil’s Addiction: 30,436/50,000 (0 words)
Where the Devil Dances: 10,629/50,000 (1550 words)
That gives me a total of 1,940 words for the week. Hmm….not great, but I have been working on other stories that I haven’t listed here. Like Garrett’s story, High Line. And a few others. I do have probably about another 1k written in long hand for DoD, just haven’t gotten around to typing it in.
Hope you have a great Wednesday. 🙂 Happy Hump Day.
You Decide…
It’s that time again. You get to decide which story I post here as my new blog story. 🙂 I’ve got two blurbs for you. You’ve already gotten to see one..Swearing Allegiance (another fantasy) from last time and a new one…Where the Devil Dances. (which is a contemporary).
Here are the blurbs:
#1 Where the Devil Dances-
Scars aren’t always on the outside. Architect Eric Sandel is living proof of that. Surviving a terrible fire, he comes to Morley to rebuild his life. He hopes designing the new Opera House will help him bury the past.
Firefighter, David Browdie, hasn’t had much time for serious relationships. When he meets Eric at the neighborhood dog park, sparks fly and he thinks he might be ready for committment.
A demon from Eric’s past haunts him though and together, David and Eric must find a way to stop him beofre they all go up in flames.
#2 Swearing Allegiance-
When his country, Nutria, is attacked, Oleg, Prince of the North easily defeats the insane ruler. Oleg and his army march to Sangdon’s capital city to claim the throne and demand allegiance from Sangdon’s nobles and Svenson’s son. He expected some defiance, but he wasn’t expecting the stab of lust that greeted him his first night at court.
Prince Berrin’s relief at his father’s defeat is tempered by caution. He needs time to make up his mind about Oleg. When he asks for that time, the Prince of Nutria graciously gives it to him. Now he has a month to decide if the new king deserves his allegiance and that of Sangdon.
Disturbing rumors reach Oleg’s ears. Rumors that Berrin isn’t the son of the king after all. The Ancient Dark owns Berrin’s soul and will do what ever it must to protect him. Will Berrin and the magic inside him accept Oleg’s authority and his love? Or will the Nutrian Prince find himself fighting a war against a god?
_________________________________________________________________
So let me know which one you’d like to read and I’ll start posting installments…probably next Tuesday. I’ll need a few days to get things organized. Don’t worry, I’ll post something on Thursday..maybe an excerpt from one of the stories I’m working on. 🙂
Have a great Tuesday.
