Week of Christmas…..

Second, His Last Client came out as a single release on Friday. It was out in the Unconventional in Atlanta anthology. 🙂 But you can check it out here.

Now that I’ve got through all the promo stuff. lol I’ll announce the winner for the next blog story. It’s Why I Love Bodyguards. I guess Burke and McKinley will be getting their story sooner rather than later. Â I’ll see what I can do about getting the first installment written for you all tomorrow. I have to go back and read Why I Love Geeks to make sure I get them right…lol
I hope you all are safe and warm. If you live in an area hit by the storm, I hope you have power and are okay. Have a great Monday and thank you for voting.
Wednesday’s Work in Progress…NSFW
My Work in Progress this week is titled Close the Distance. It’s book 2 in the Rags to Riches series. In Book 1, Remove the Empty Spaces, we meet Ion and Adrien. RtES will be up for pre-order in January. Anyway, Close the Distance is a continuation of their story. In fact, it’ll be picking up the very next day from where RtES left off.
I started it on Monday so I’m not too far into it, but since I want to get it done before Christmas next week, I’ll be working as much as possible on it. Though I did want to share a NSFW snippet of it with you. Hope you like Ion and Adrien.

Excerpt-
He tugged the fabric down while Adrien lifted his hips and his cock sprang out, hard and curved over his abs. Licking his lips, Ion studied the well-formed erection in front of him. Thicker and a little longer than his. The head was fleshy and purple and was a little shiny from the pre-cum leaking from it already.
It rose from a trimmed nest of dark curls and his balls hung heavy beneath it. Ion reached out to take them in hand. He fondled then rolled them in his fingers. Leaning in, he sucked one than the other. There was a salty taste to his skin along with the lingering scent of the soap they’d used earlier in the shower.
He pressed his tongue against the lightly furred sac before letting it slip from his mouth. Adrien gripped his head then directed his mouth to the tip of his shaft. Ion willingly opened, taking him without hesitation. He loved how he felt lying on his tongue.
When Adrien hit the back of his throat, Ion swallowed, massaging his length. His lover moaned and he smiled around the dick in his mouth. He loved knowing he draw those sounds out and make Adrien lose control. After slipping his finger in beside Adrien’s cock, he got it wet then rubbed it over Adrien’s hole.
“Your mouth,” Adrien murmured. “I love the way it feels. Almost as good as your ass.”
Ion pushed just the tip of his finger inside and Adrien moaned. Arching, Adrien thrust into his mouth then impaled himself. It was what he wanted, his lover taking what he needed.
They had done away with condoms for blow jobs over the weekend, and when they got back to the city, they were going to get tested. Once their negative results came back, he would finally get to feel what fucking bareback was like. Well he’d get a chance to remember what it felt like. His first couple of times having sex had been non-condom times, and he’d been lucky not to catch anything.
One of his close friends had got HIV, and it shook Ion to his core. That was when he promised himself that he was never going to believe he was invincible again. He always carried condoms in his wallet.
But now loving Adrien meant he could get rid of them and experience the amazing sensation of Adrien spilling inside him. A little tug on his hair brought his mind back to what he was doing and not on what was going to happen in the future. Ion went back to bobbing up and down, applying as much pressure as he could to draw another groan from Adrien.
Two fingers inside Adrien and Ion twisted them to nail his gland. He gagged slightly when Adrian shoved his cock a little deeper than was comfortable for Ion. But he didn’t back off, working Adrien as best he could until he got a tap on the cheek, letting him know Adrien was close.
He upped the pressure and movement until Adrien tensed under him, and his mouth was flooded with salty bitterness. Drinking it down, Ion tried to get all of it but some trickled from the corner of his lips.
When Adrien began to soften, Ion licked him clean then let him slide out. Adrien pulled him up before encouraging him to lean forward. Adrien lapped at the cum on Ion’s chin while working Ion’s jeans open.
“Oh fuck me,” Ion whispered as the smooth skin of Adrien’s hand surrounded his heated flesh.
He was primed, so it only took three hard tugs and he climaxed, coating Adrien’s hand and his own pants. Working his cock, Adrien didn’t let up until Ion was so sensitive, he had to get away from his lover. After rolling to one side, Ion stared up at the ceiling while he tried to get his breathing under control.
“Do you think we’ll be able to get to your parents’ on time?” Adrien asked a few minutes later.
Start of another crazy week…
I know…you’re probably like why do you keep sharing the covers for your m/f books here?  lol Because I think they’re beautiful. 🙂 I love them just as much as I do any of the m/m covers I get. 🙂 Los Angeles will be out next Feb. I believe.
Anyway, Canada has been turned in and it now has a title: Burning Up the Ice. We couldn’t get away with calling it Canada…lol I’ll share the cover art for you as soon as I get it. Next up on our world tour is Brazil. Yum! A pro beach volleyball player and a physical therapist who meet during Carnivale. It should be fun.
I’ll be working on finishing Finding Peace…adding a little extra bit at the end then subbing it. 🙂 Once that’s done, I need to start Close the Distance, which is Book 2 in the Rags to Riches series.
Those are my plans for this week. We’ll see how well they go. lol
You had better put on your thinking caps. Tomorrow, you get to offer up suggestions on what type of story should I do next. We’ve already had cowboys, or going back to the world of Angel’s Evolution. Now I do have a story started that takes place in that world. It’s not Shade’s story, but he does play a very important role in it. But I’m open to any and all suggestions. Then on Thursday, I’ll narrow it down to two and you can chose which one. 🙂
have a great Monday, everyone.
Snowy Monday….
So I’ll admit I posted this pic-not because of the guy-but because of the fact that there is a cow in the picture. lol What the heck is up with that? 🙂
Anyway, this weekend was great. I finished No Bravery and turned it in. It’s for the 2014 GRL anthology. So I won’t have to worry about that. We’re doing a slightly different thing for next year. So I hope you all will like it.
I’m back to working Canada (Book 5 of International Sports) and Los Angeles (Book 6 of Fallen), plus there will be other stories stuck in there as I go along. I have edits to do on Remove the Empty Spaces. Have to get them back to my editor by tomorrow. Yay!
Also, I think I’ll be wrapping Finding Peace up this week as well. Chad is back home at the diner and in Zane’s arms where he belongs. 🙂 So it’s time to let them go. Then next week we can decide what I should write next for the blog.
Well, I have to go run some errands, then I’ll be finishing up my edits. 🙂 Have a great Monday and stay safe.
New Cover Art….
Just got this in my inbox. It’s so beautiful and exactly how I pictured Ion. 🙂 Remove the Empty Spaces is book 1 in my new series Rags to Riches that I’m writing for Totally Bound. 🙂 I don’t have an exact release date on it yet..though I’m thinking some time in February or March.  As soon as I know, I’ll let you all know.
I finished up From Yesterday yesterday…lol. And submitted it to MLR Press. It’s the 3rd in the Rupert’s Legacy series, but features a different main couple this time. It turned out a little longer than I had originally planned, but that’s okay. I’ll post the release date on that as soon as I get it.
Devon and I are working hard on Canada (we really do need to pin down a title on this one…lol) I added some more to it yesterday and plan on working on it today, after I get my installment for Finding Peace done.
I also started my story for the 2014 Unconventional/GRL anthology. My story is titled No Bravery and when you read it, you’ll understand why. We’re doing something a little different for next year and I hope you like it. It’s going to be a fun antho to write.
Plus I’ll be starting my 6th Fallen book, Los Angeles, in the next couple of days as well. Hoping to get that one done by the end of the month.
Okay. I have to go out and run some errands, but when I get back, I’ll be writing the rest of the day. I hope you all have a great Monday.
Wednesday Work in Progress….
Well, to be honest, I don’t have any T.A. stories in progress right at the moment. I’m still finishing up my Tiffany story, New York, for my Fallen series. As soon as I get that done, I’ll be finishing up Remove the Space Between Us. It’ll be the first book in a new series called Rags to Riches. The stories in this series are about your average guy (or maybe not so average..lol) falling in love with a rich and powerful man. They’ll have to deal with the money difference, and sometimes the difference in attitude about money and power. 🙂 I know the billionaire trope has kind of been overdone lately, but for me, these stories aren’t about rich men coming in to sweep a poor guy off his feet. It’s more about the poor guy showing the rich guy that there’s something more out there than just working and money.
Also, because I watched Shark Week last week, and when I do, I always get plot bunnies running through my head, I wrote down a couple scenes for a story about a reporter and a shark attack victim. I’m hoping to find a way to fit it in to my schedule. lol Not sure when that’ll be, but I’m going to try.
Well, I hope you all have a great Wednesday. I just thought I’d update you on what’s going on, so that you don’t wonder what I’m writing. 🙂
Happy Monday
The weekend was productive. I finished The Occasional Prostitute and sent it in. I also did forms for three of my MF stories that are going to be contracted soon. I started a new story, Pray for the Thunder, which will go to MLR Press when it’s done. Also, I opened From Yesterday, which is the third book in the Rupert’s Legacy series. I stopped working on it because I needed to get some other stories done sooner. Well, I’m so close to finishing it, that I decided to see if I can get it done. I’d like to have both books finished and in to MLR Press by the middle of March.
Also, I have to add 15-20k to one of my short stories, filling it out so it’s around 30-35k when I’m finished. Remove the Space Between Us will be the first in a six book series titled Rags to Riches. Woo-hoo! Like I needed more series/books to write…lol.
I’m juggling a lot of stories, and hoping I get them all done in a reasonable amount of time without driving myself crazy…lol
Have a wonderful Monday, everyone. 🙂
