Synopsis

Hey! Yeah, you! Want in on a juicy secret? Geleon Thaice sure does. Why is the mysterious female of his dreams, wet or otherwise, constantly slipping through his hands? All he craves is to shower her with love and make her his own. Is that so bad? Is it just the fingers of fate doling out yet another allotment of misery upon his head? Or has destiny slyly laid a precise path that’s been waiting patiently for centuries?

Jaelyn Areeda just wants to peacefully survive another day, but the cosmos have her violently colliding with forces out of her control, falling into the capable, muscle-packed arms of a sinfully sexy alpha alien hell bent on inserting himself into her life… as well as her heart, mind, and soul. Will she run—or stay?

Book 9 in the Fueled By Lust Series doesn’t fail in delivering up another scrumptiously hunky male to whet your appetite, make you drool, and dare to love.

Teaser: Excerpt

     Reaching out, Jaelyn grabbed his wrist before he could turn around. Chills washed across every inch of her flesh, and she said exactly what was on her mind.
     “Geleon. I’m going to kiss you. A real one this time, so get ready.” Tingles zipped up her spine as his piercing green eyes narrowed and he leaned forward, a growl rumbling through his chest.
     “Baby, I’ve been ready from the moment I spotted those beautiful lips.” He caught her chin. “Bring them to me.”
     There was no gentle meeting of moist flesh this time, no tentative touching, or shy exploration. No. It was a cataclysmic joining of two entities craving the taste of one another. A raw, steaming, and decadent battle to consume began the moment she clasped his gorgeous face, smashed her lips against his, and sucked a warm tongue into her mouth. Strong arms caught under her ass cheeks, lifted her up, and smashed her against the door. Jaelyn moaned in delight as her breasts pressed against his sculpted chest, instantly tightening her nipples. She shoved her fingers into his hair, gripped the silky strands, and drank him down.
     Chest rumbling, Geleon’s broad hands palmed the back of her thighs, pulling her legs up to wrap his narrow waist. Hooking her ankles against his glorious ass, she yanked him closer. The seam on her jeans pressed hard against her clit, sending her body into a shivering fountain of wanton need. Grasping the base of his long braid, Jaelyn broke from the kiss and panted heavily against his chin.
     “Forget the key … stay in my room. I want you, Geleon.”

Drusus [1]

[Siren Classic: Erotic Sci-Fi Romance, light spanking, HEA]

Drawn to Texas by a vortex link between Insedivertus and a plethora of potential mates, Prince Drusus Tarquinius focuses on ensuring the survival of his alien race. Avelina Roth is simply out on the town trying to forget her love troubles when their accidental meeting draws them both into a dangerous liaison that brings a hated enemy back into Drusus’ life and shatters Avelina’s belief that we are alone in this universe.

How does troubled in love Avelina Roth deal with the overwhelming Drusus Tarquinius, a force not of this Earth, when he engages her in his mating cycle the moment they meet? Will Drusus overlook the past and move forward with the final mating? Will Avelina survive to know the full depth of his love when the planetary war that pushed the aliens to seek mates knocks firmly on her door?  Packed with plenty of romance, hot, hunky men, humor, and scorching, knee-wobbling sex, this author recommends gloves when reading.

Severus [2]

[Siren Classic: Erotic Sci-Fi Romance, paranormal elements, light bondage, HEA]

Thrown together by the mating of Drusus and Avelina, Severus Faal and Cassie Wells find themselves drawn into a world of corporate espionage when Cassie catches a co-worker planting monitoring devices at her law office. Cassie’s drive to uncover the reason for the infiltration immediately engages Severus’s protective instincts to keep her safe. As they work together to solve this mystery, they begin a journey of self-discovery that raises old ghosts and salts unhealed wounds.

Since Severus refuses to wear his mating necklace, as is the custom of the Insedi male, he relies on instinct and readily dismisses signs that Cassie has triggered his mating cycle. While Cassie has a fearless outer shell, her core is full of shadows and indecision. A troubled childhood stagnates her ability to open her heart and experience a love that could span a millennium.

Book 2 in the Fueled By Lust series delivers heart-wrenching romance, intrigue, hot alpha-males, passion, and scorching, knee-wobbling sex.

Luna Jasper has been working hard to get out of an unfulfilling relationship, and just as she sees freedom within reach, one small mistake spirals her into a fight for her life, a huge push into the arms of a man she never believed could exist, and a surrealistic encounter with an alien world beyond her wildest imagination.

About the Author

I was born and raised in a small town between Dallas/Fort Worth and Austin. Wanting to see more than her small Texas town, I joined the Marines, which satisfied my craving to see more of the U.S. and my drive to see if I could be one of the few and the proud.

A firm believer in educating the mind, I’ve achieved several advanced degrees, the latest being a master’s of science.

My true love is writing erotic romance, especially about alien hunks that know how to treat their females.  Drusus, Severus, Cato, Lucien, Caelius, Maxim and many more have swirled in my dreams until I had to bring them to life and allow them to find love within the pages of the Fueled by Lust book series.

Book 1 Drusus was nominated as Top 5 Finalist and placed 3rd in the 2014 RWA Passionate Ink’s 9th Annual Passionate Plume Book Contest in Erotic SciFi/Fantasy Category; Book 2 Severus achieved Best Book review rating and won April 2014 Book Of The Month Reader Poll at Long And Short Reviews; Book 3 Cato won the May/June 2014 Book Of The Month, Lucien won the September 2014 Book Of The Month, and Makar and Baruch the Septmber 2015 Book Of The Month Reader Poll at Long And Short Reviews.

All currently released books in the series have made it into the Top 5 Bestseller Lists at Bookstrand.com within days of release as well as making it into the Top 10 Hottest New Releases in Erotic Science Fiction on Amazon.

I would like to give a big shout out to my gorgeous model, Anthony Zuniga, and the awesome cover photographer, David Erickson.
