Books in the works

Hi Everyone!

I know I’ve been totally MIA over the summer. I’ve been popping in to Kinky Ever After now and again, but I haven’t been posting much here, and for that I apologize!

First of all, thanks to everyone who’s read Lily Mine. I know it was out of my usual niche but the reaction was overwhelmingly supportive. It made it to at least #12 on Amazon’s Erotica Bestseller list, but then I stopped watching because to me that was already far beyond what I expected it to do and I was getting jittery just thinking about it. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for the support!

I have three books (well, four) in the works coming up. Only one will come out this year, probably this fall, and the rest you can expect in 2012, but I wanted to give my loyal blog followers a sneak peek to thank you for all you do, for so faithfully leaving reviews around the net and spreading the word to other readers. So here goes…

The next book I expect to release is called Odalisque. It’s a contemporary BDSM tale set around the odalisque lifestyle, or women who are kept by very wealthy men as pleasure slaves. You know me–I am putting a very emotional, nitty-gritty, and sometimes touching spin on the Master-slave trope and I hope you will find it fresh and exciting. I’m enjoying the hero and heroine very much and they are telling a great story with lots of twists (and humor too.) Mason Cooke and Jessamine Jackson are secondary characters in this book, so if you’ve read Comfort Object, you’ll see some familiar faces.

I’m also working on a book called Cirque du Minuit. This is another BDSM contemporary romance set in the world of an avant garde circus company. The hero and heroine will be working on an act together but a whole lot more will develop between them, some of it frightening and dark. So far it’s shaping up to be a really emotionally intense book.

There’s also The Edge of the Earth. This book is almost finished but it’s not a “lifestyle” or BDSM book so I’m not sure what to do with it… It does have an alpha hero (I don’t think I can write any other kind!) but he’s not a dom, just a manly, brainy barrel of wonderfulness. He’s a linguist whose specialty is resurrecting dying languages, and she is the last native speaker of a dialect he needs to know in order to translate an artifact he’s found. They meet up in the Caucasus and all kinds of crazy, dramatic, and wonderful things happen (including tons of hot sex, lol). It will come out via Scarlet Rose Press at some point. I am trying to stagger my BDSM and non-BDSM work so that there’s something for everyone and people don’t have to wait too long for a release in their favorite niche.

Last but not least, by reader demand, I’ve decided to write a follow up to Club Mephisto. No title yet, and it’s still in the planning stages, but I tend to agree with readers that there is still a lot of Molly’s story yet to be told. When I was writing Club Mephisto I was most interested in Molly’s desire to give herself up completely to her Master, and to resist growth or change in her circumstances out of deep slavery to her Master. Of course, both Mephisto and Molly’s Master knew that situation would not last indefinitely, no matter her devotion, and, well, it doesn’t. The follow up will tell more, but until then, just know it’s coming.

Oh–and also–by November/December time frame, Comfort Object will finally be available in paperback (Amazon only, not bookstores.) Stay tuned if you’ve been waiting to get that book in print!

  1. Yeah an update !!!!

    I can not wait for Cirque du Minuit, sounds so good ( fell in love Alex Markov from Kiss An Angel SEP’s hero, he had all the makings of a freaking good Dom) so I can’t wait.

    Glad about Club Mephisto, really didn’t like it when I first read it, only because I didn’t like the fact that Molly’s take on giving everything up for her master, but read it again and loved it, so I wait with baited breath to see the outcome of her relationship with her master and Master Mephisto.

    Last but not least triple YEAH YEAH YEAH!!!!!! for Comfort Object being released in book form, can not wait to order it.
    Comfort Object was the best BDSM book besides Mercy that I have ever read. The balance was there for me.

    Good works and Happy Writing.

  2. Thanks Maddie! I’m happy about all the stuff I’m working on right now. It’s a good feeling and hopefully everything will please my readers.
