Unstoppable heros, Uncompromising love, Unforgettable passion.

Science Fiction Romance author Kayelle Allen spent years developing the universe for her books. Her debut novel was so spicy it made seasoned Romance readers blush. Appealing to every gender and sexual orientation, her command of the romantic language evokes passion in all its forms. Her offbeat humor and surprising twists generated the motto, "Think you know what'll happen next? No way! It's by Kayelle..."

Hello to my fellow writers and readers. I am Australian, but now live in Florida with my alpha-male husband and sweet daughter who are Aussies as well. Besides dodging hurricanes, I love living in America. My husband was offered a position in Florida, but we both know, we only moved here for my writing career.

I am the sub-genre queen. I write historical paranormal erotic romance novels. Say that five times fast. LOL. I like to bring something different to the readers and I have a reputation for spicy scenes, to say the least. Come join me in the forum, but I warn you, the topics will lean toward men, romance, and sex.

My three favorite subjects. ;)

I have been into Health since I was a child, as my mother informs me that I begged for cabbage in the grocery store, not candy! 

I now write Healthy Living Tips articles, consult with people about their health, speak to groups of people on health and promote my book Real Solutions to Children’s Health.   I love helping people get healthier and I feel now is the time to get our children healthy.   So feel free to ask a question, or post a comment.

 I started writing when I was about twelve. I'd just read one of Elaine Mitchell's brumby books (not the silver brumby series, one of the others) and I hated the ending. So I did what seemed the most natural thing to do--I rewrote it <g>.

I haven't stopped writing since--though I have to admit, it's only in the last fifteen years that I've seriously thought about getting published.

To date, I've completed a total of seventeen novels, (not counting the rewrite of Elaine Mitchell's!) although the first three will probably never see the light of day. I thought they were brilliant at the time, but looking at them now, I can only shudder. I still think the ideas are great, but basically, all three books would need to be entirely rewritten. Maybe I'll get back to them one day, when I have the time and nothing else to write. I'm a member of RWAustralia, the Princess Lulu Regrets crit group (don't ask about the name, because it's just unexplainable <g>), the Sock Monkeys, and the Monkeylint support group.  Learn more at my web site!

Hello all!  I'm a new author who loves both romance and adventure stories.  My writing heroes are people like Tolkien and Patrick O'Brian, whose worlds are fantastic places to be and whose action scenes leave you biting your nails and on the edge of your seats with tension.  But I've always felt that what would make their books *even better* would be a romance between a couple of the heroes.  And I adore Jane Austen - she's my romance heroine - but I can't help wishing there were a few duels or naval battles in her books.

So mine are an attempt to have both!  If you too like a bit of action with your romance, or a bit of romance with your action, then hopefully I can help you to have your cake and eat it :)

Will has always been a storyteller, but only recently started writing them down. The focus on erotic romance was an easy choice for the man who has always considered himself both a throwback to the warrior poet ethic and an extremely sexual being. Will admits to being an incorrigible flirt, but he also can be quite serious at times. He is always seeking feedback, diverse points of view and the adrenalin of a new experience.

I've been writing many, many years, but didn't get published until 2003.  I love books that ground you in a familiar world, but still offer elements of the paranormal (vampires, wizards, shape-shifters cursed dukes, etc.).  My heroes all tend to be Alpha males who strongly believe they need to protect the women who enter their lives.  Though they may admire the heroine's courage and even understand her need to be strong and independent, they always think they know what is best for her.  More often than not, they are wrong, and it is up to the heroine to help them recognize their mistake and slowly change their attitudes.  In the end, the hero will usually be willing to compromise, to an extent, and may even admit he is overly protective, but he can never really change his attitude since his need to protect is so deeply engrained in him.  The heroine comes to understand her hero's faults, and even grows to love him more for having them.  She learns the best way to get around her domineering partner is simply to love him and offer her love back freely in return.

“Best selling novelist, Margaret Blake likes nothing more than swopping genres. Writing contemporary romance and historical romantic suspense has proved successful for Margaret. She has been the best selling author of the month at Whiskey Creek Press on two occasions and is always in their top ten. Recently she has been writing romantic suspense for a hardback publisher – Robert Hale Limited – and has had super reviews. A visit to her website at www.margaretblake.co.uk is well worth while. 

Margaret has been married over thirty years. She has one son and three gorgeous grandchildren who, with their beautiful Mom, live in Florida. It is great to be able to visit them but would be better if they were closer. 

Margaret likes nothing better than curling up with a good book, unless of course she is writing one!

Sensual...Suspenseful...Paranormal Romance with an edge.

Paranormal Romantic Suspense author Shonna Brannon has been writing stories most of her life. She made her publishing debut with a contemporary romantic suspense, but found her niche in paranormal. Her stories will have the readers suspending any disbelief in the paranormal and will have them caught up in the story from the first line.

Adrianne Brennan is a romantic dark fantasy, paranormal, and science fiction author who stumbled into her love of writing by accident at the tender age of ten when she was given a creative writing assignment for her science class. The end result was her writing a brief science fiction comedy featuring numerous puns regarding vegetables. Once the writing bug bit, it bit pretty hard, and from the age of fourteen onwards she worked on a lengthy fantasy novel.  At this time, this fantasy novel is still a work in progress as she continues to focus on her other works. 

An avid reader, Adrianne has been most influenced by various science fiction and fantasy authors including Madeleine L'Engle, Roger Zelazny, Laurell K. Hamilton, LA Banks, Yasmine Galenorn, Michael Ende, Neil Gaiman, and Alan Moore. Like her main character from Blood of the Dark Moon, she professes a love for Iamblichus and Greek philosophy.

Hola, I'm James Buchanan, a multipublished author of, primarily, homoerotic romance & fiction. My Novella, Twice the Cowboy is the 2006 Preditors & Editors #1 Romance Short Story, the 2006 Golden Rose Winner for best Novella and has garnered several other awards. I write everything from fantasy to contemporary to suspense.

Life wise, I grew up in a small Texas town, hours away from any other small Texas town and about as far west as you could go and still be considered in Texas. A stint at the University, where I ostensibly majored in English, garnered me a degree useful for being someone's secretary. The absolute lack of employment opportunities sent me to Southern California. After a stint in County Mental Health (administration not client) I ran screaming into the field of Law. So far I have been practicing for nine years and someday I might even get it right.

You can find my work primarily at www.torquerepress.com and www.phaze.com.  I look forward to chatting with ya'll.

Welcome to my lil’ page about me and my muse. 

And my muse is quite active these days.  My first love of romance came in the form of Silhouette Romance novels.  Those lil’ bits of heaven made me hold out for the love of my life.  And yes, I found him.  We’ve been together for over 20 years, 15 of them married.  Our two sons keep us very busy.  In all of these years I never stopped reading and in the last few years I found the time to follow a dream of become a romance novelist.  Now that has been a fantastic ride.  Creating people, worlds and steamy, sexy happily ever after’s.  I like my heroines to have spunk and wit, and my heroes to have a need for the women that fall into their lives.  I love all things paranormal.  Time travel romance is something I think we’ve all read at one time or another.  And let’s face it, erotic romance is like an addiction.  You know you shouldn’t, but you just have to.  I read it all.  I write it all. 

Sit back, search my forum and enjoy what you find.  I’m an honest person who finds many things funny and I often have to lug my mind out of the gutter.

I began writing fiction seriously in 2003 and have written four novels (and started three others) since then. My first two science fiction novels (The Mars Imperative and The Tesserene Imperative) debuted in 2007. The third (Sunrise Destiny) has been sold and should appear in late 2008 or early 2009. The fourth (My Other Car is a Spaceship) is currently making the publishing rounds. I also write nonfiction and had a book on computer technology published in 1995, and I ghost-wrote three chapters of another nonfiction book about computers in 2005. I also write a regular column on writing and language for Mike's Writing Newsletter, as well as a blog on the subject. I love talking about science fiction/fantasy, computers, writing in general, and—of course—my novels. Please join me.

Aline de Chevigny has a special talent for writing stories with an HEA ending. Doesn't matter the genre as long as there's a romantic plot or sub plot involved that surrounds true love, she can pen the tale.

Being a Chenist by proffession she balances out her scientific nature with the artistic side or writing. A Canadian born and raised, her heritage tends to sneak through into her story lines.

She loves to hear what people think of her stories and will willingly answer any questions you may have.

Visit the Old West for Romance, Passion, and Adventure

I’m A.L.Debran and I write historical and western romances…most of the time. My stories range from sensual to erotic and when I do stray from my westerns, I somehow manage to bring cowboys along anyway. Growing up on a ranch in northeastern Colorado under the influences of Marty Robbins’ gunfighter ballads and Louis L’Amour’s cowboy stories instilled in me a love of the Old West. My stories are historically accurate from the Comanchero trails through Texas to driving longhorn cattle over Trinchera Pass in southern Colorado.

I enjoy visiting with readers and authors no matter what your favorite romance genre, so don’t be a stranger at my blog - or my website - and drop me an email anytime.

Saucy Woman, Sexy Men, Sultry Love Stories Welcome to the Debora Dennis corner of the coffee house!  It's a little steamy over here, but don't let that fool you – my stories are all romance, all the time!  Whether it's a passionate paranormal, a steamy contemporary or a spicy erotic, there's always a happy ending to look forward to.

There's always room for one more at my table, so grab a cup of fresh-roasted coffee and pull up a chair inside.  You can also visit my website.

Residing on six acres of beautiful woodland, she communes with owls, eagles and loons (the winged version) and often writes while overlooking an environmental lake on her property. The lake is named after a famous Native American Chief and the locals claim burial grounds exist in her woods. Perhaps it’s not always the wind she hears howling at night!

I love to hear from readers so please friend me on Coffee Time (one of my fave haunts on the Net). You can also find me all over the Internet, so just Google my name.

Sweet romance in the Middle Ages

Author Joyce DiPastena writes sweet medieval romances, sprinkled with generous doses of mystery and adventure. Her debut novel, Loyalty's Web, was a 2007 Whitney Award Finalist, while Illuminations of the Heart, published in 2009, won first place in Romance Writers of America's "Heart of the West Contest". Joyce loves all things medieval, but weaves the history of the era organically into her stories in a way that enhances, rather than detracts, from the romance and excitement between her pages.

If you love your romances sweet or medieval, come visit with Joyce here at Coffee Time!

Romance. Passion. Suspense.

Welcome to my coffee spot.

I started writing romantic fiction as a kid when I discovered Phyllis Whitney and Victoria Holt and fell in love with the romantic suspense genre.

I wrote my first novel as a pre-teen. It's tucked away in some drawer somewhere never to see the light of day.

An avid reader, I soon expanded my writing genres to include contemporary romance and romantic comedy.

If steamy, sensual romance is your thing, then Sandra Fowke is an author you must meet. 

From the moment Sandra Fowke discovered erotic romance she just had to write it.  Unsatisfied with category romance and slightly repulsed by erotica and porn, this genre opened up a whole new world to the mousy girl from Brisbane, Australia.

They say when you're not looking for love, it finds you and when it needs to be heard, it finds the right person to become a messenger.  I believe I am one of its messengers.  Everyday I fall in love with love.  When I write romance short stories, I live and breathe all of its parts.  I want my readers to be completely immersed in its delicate embrace.  The words come to me like a thousand paper boats from people that are falling in love, folded with all their hopes, dreams, and wishes, and I try to interpret those feelings and show them what they would look like on paper.

I short stories and novellas.  All my stories are original full length romance fiction. I enjoy writing about romantic encounters, chance meetings, lost love, found love, intimate love, and inspirational love. My characters are derived from  my readers character requests,  people watching, business travel, vacation, magazines, and pure imagination.  When I'm writing I play music, environment sound CDs (storms, ocean, wind), and scented candles.

I a work on three to six romance short stories at one.  The ones I'm currently working on are:Executive Wife,Malibu Girl,Intimately Yours,Because of You, Connect my Dots, and The look in her Eyes.You can read the preview chapters on my author site

Amy began writing romance as a relaxation from a 24/7 career and found it an enjoyable escape, especially after winning first prize in two national competitions and a five book contract with an Australian publisher. Life beyond a professional career suddenly seemed possible and the opportunity was manufactured to allow Amy to become a professional writer. Thirteen published stories later, Amy has written paranormal, historical and contemporary romance, historical fiction and magazine stories without losing one iota of the zest that triggered the end of a professional career. A film rights contract for The Widow-Maker has grown into the shooting of a promotional trailer for the full length feature film and introduced Amy to both, the uncertainties of the Australian Film industry and a writer’s responsibilities to produce character breakdowns for casting of the actors. It is fascinating to see figments of imagination become living, breathing individuals—even if they look nothing like the mind pictures that drove their creation.

Hi.  Welcome to the Coffee Corner of award winning, best selling (USA Today Bestseller List among others) author Samantha Gentry.  Come on in, grab a cup, kick off your shoes, and relax.  We can talk about whatever you'd like. 

My reading tastes are eclectic.  I enjoy all sorts of books, both fiction and non-fiction.  However, I have to admit that once I started writing I found myself reading more non-fiction than fiction because of my research into various subjects. 

My writing is a little more focused—erotic romance (contemporary and suspense), contemporary romance, romantic suspense, and mystery.  As time permits, I'm trying something new by working on a couple of paranormal stories.  In addition to my ebook releases written as Samantha Gentry, I also have a backlist of 21 novels published with Harlequin Intrigue and Silhouette Desire under my other pseudonym.  You'll find the list on my website.  

On Sunday mornings I post a new blog and have several contests each year on my website (usually something to do with movie trivia).  Stop by and leave a comment on my blog about the current weekly subject and don't forget to enter my website contest.

Hi, I'm Cat Grant, writer of erotic romance. My first novel, an erotic tale featuring a m/m/f menage a trois entitled THE ARRANGEMENT, will be published May 5th, 2008, by Lyrical Press.

I've been writing off and on ever since I was old enough to hold a pencil. I've poked around in many different genres. I've written fan fiction, tried my hand at fantasy and horror, but in the end I came back to what I enjoy most - writing about the intimate relationships between men and women, and how love doesn't always happen the way we expect.

I am a writer of contemporary sensual romance. Sometimes dark, sometime humorous, but always steeped in emotion. I have always loved becoming lost in a great love story, from the turn of the first page to the bittersweet disappointment of reaching “the end”. Being given the opportunity to hopefully transport readers to the same “literary trance” is a privilege I am grateful for every day. I live down south, where it is hottern’ hell ya’ll, with my husband and two children. I love to hear from readers.

Hello. I’m Kate Hill and I love to read and write romance. If you’d like to know a little about me, my author bio is below. I love talking to other readers and writers, so please feel free to email me at any time or post questions and comments in this forum. Thank you!

What do trips around the world, endless nights of breathtaking sex, and a muscular, 6-foot 3-inch, brown-haired, blue-eyed significant other have to do with Kate Hill? Absolutely nothing, but she can dream, can't she? In reality Kate is a single, thirty-something vegetarian New Englander who loves writing romantic fantasies.

Currently, she might not be traveling around the world, but Kate has visited Europe and Africa and those beautiful places have been wonderful inspiration for her writing. While working at various times as a clerk, assistant karate instructor, house painter and banker, Kate dreamed of being an author. In 1996 her first short story was accepted for publication and since then she has sold over ninety short stories, novellas and novels.

Kate's stories, The Chieftain's Bride and Vampire Master, have won The Romance Studio's CAPA and in 2002 her vampire novel, The Immaculate, was nominated for a Romantic Times Reviewers' Choice Award.

When she's not working on her books, Kate enjoys reading, working out, and researching vampires and Viking history. You can visit her online here.

I was born in Dunnottar Castle in Grampian, Scotland, high upon the cliffs over looking the turbulent North Sea. And I was betrothed to my true love at the tender age of twelve. I remember the first time I saw him, riding across the plains upon his white charger, his armour shining brilliantly in the noonday sun...I swear, I feared my heart would leap out of my breast for the love he did instill in me...

(Insert record scratch here)

Okay, the truth of the matter is: reality sucks, and I'm a story teller and have been since the moment I could talk, according to my Dad. Whenever he caught me in a lie, I had no problem coming up with a dozen reasons why I painted the cat purple with green polk-a-dots, none of them true of course, but at least they were highly entertaining. It was at that time he knew I was destined for greatness... I would become a writer, a story teller who actually gets PAID to lie. What more could you possibly want in a career?

I LOVE history, and writing is my passion! To me there is nothing like knights in shining armour riding to the rescue of their beautiful, spirited damsels; of swashbuckling pirates stealing the women of their dreams; and devilishly handsome rogues fighting to the death for the lovely ladies who have unwittingly stolen their hardened hearts...

Come on in and chat with me about romance, love and life.

New York Times bestselling author Shirley Jump didn't have the willpower to diet nor the talent to master under-eye concealer, so she bowed out of a career in television and opted instead for a career where she could be paid to eat at her desk--writing. She started out in journalism, selling her first article at the age of eleven and dreaming of being the next Jane Pauley. Then she got married. And had two kids.

Humor became the only thing that got her through the mashed potato flingfests and toilet paper decorating sprees. At first, seeking revenge on her children for their grocery store tantrums, she sold embarrassing essays about her children to anthologies such as Chicken Soup for the Working Woman's Soul and Chocolate for Women II. However, it wasn't enough to feed her growing addiction to writing funny.

So she turned to the world of romance novels, where messes are (usually) cleaned up before The End and no one is calling anyone a doodoo head. In the worlds Shirley gets to create and control, children listen to their parents, husbands always remember holidays and housework is magically done by elves.

She sold her first book to Silhouette Romance in 2001. That novel, THE VIRGIN'S PROPOSAL, won the Booksellers' Best Award for Best Traditional Romance of 2003. RESCUED BY MR. RIGHT won the prestigious Holt Medallion in 2007, and "Twelve Days" won the More than Magic award for best Novella in 2007.

She found a way to combine all her favorite things in her recipes with her own romantic comedy series from Zebra Books, which launched in September 2004 with THE BRIDE WORE CHOCOLATE.  The fifth in that series, PRETTY BAD, was released in February in 2007. Today, Shirley writes 8 books a year and will see her 18th, 19th and 20th books come out at the end of 2007.

Though she's thrilled to see her books in stores around the world, Shirley mostly writes because it gives her an excuse to avoid cleaning the toilets and helps feed her shoe habit. Join her on Coffee Time Romance for fun, discussions about reading, writing, shopping, food--anything that lets Shirley find an excuse to avoid cleaning the toilets.

Latte Lobby	Writer Q&A
Excerpts and More

Welcome to my world, where anything is possible. Whether my stories are dealing with humans, vampires, shape shifters, Fae… one thing is for certain belief in myth, magic, and love is a necessity.

There is something fascinating about a world where there are no limits to the imagination. The City of Las Vegas is often the seed of inspiration for my writing. When a city is steeped in controversy, holds a wealth of history, mystery, and romance, it’s bound to spark a few tales. It is a city that comes alive when the sun sinks into the west and the hum of pulsating neon lures the evil and lovely out of hiding.

For me, the biggest challenge is melding present day Las Vegas with the world my mind sees when my eyes close at night. My goal is to blur the lines between myth, fantasy, and romance to create stories that will capture your attention from page one.

Stick around for the journey, I promise not to bite…hard. Sláinte!

Hello and welcome, my name is Mercedes Keyes and I write fictional interracial dramas - some call them romance. I work as a major part of a wonderful writing team. The other member of the team is my husband, Mr. Lawrence James. This is how our team effort goes in this soap drama world we've written. I get an idea for the next episode and I discuss it with him. We sit, sometimes for hours going through the story plot, working out how the characters would respond, which direction depending on their makeup things might head. Because he is the man in this team, his feeling is, be true to the way a man thinks, feels and responds on certain things, especially when it comes to the woman he loves, or the way he is with other women in general. While I blanch at some of the flowery language needed to fully round out the male characters, my husband has made it clear ... "You want my input, make the men true to the way they are!" Thus you have the make up of the men in this story. As the story goes, understand and accept that the men will not always appeal to the way we wish them to be, but they are all we have to work with - (smile) While the male characters can indeed be trying, selfish, demanding, domineering, over-bearing, controlling and yes, sexist ... Ladies, some of us love the challenge. Admittedly, the women - we can be a trip too. I have made the personality make up of the ones found in this soap as true as I've known many to be. Whether that be weak, or strong, victims, or victimizers, innocent, worldly, bossy, fluctuating mood swings, at times bitchy, longing and in love, tender and compassionate, flirtatious and lusty too. True as I feel those feelings to be, they will be found in the women I write about, and of course, the women in our online drama series, the Beauty of Man and Woman! We have worked hard to keep this drama and all our fiction material true to real-life - and oh what a ride you're in for! Our most dominant interracial combo exist between black women, with white males, and second to that combo, white women with black males. Please enter my group, check out the reviews, excerpts, short stories, or even better - my website!

As Kim Rees she writes sensual contemporary romances, with hot alpha males and quietly strong heroines.  Oh, and angst. Angst is an absolute must.

And as Kim Knox she writes fantasy and sf with a twist of romance. She loves to play with myth and the past… but also take her characters into the far future. The heroine is more the focus in these stories
though the hero is, of course, effortlessly sexy.

So you get a choice, swirling emotion for her contemporaries or murder and magic for her sf stories.  Why not try both? *grin

Hello and welcome to my page!  Let me take a moment to introduce myself.  I am Dayana Knight, author of dark paranormal and crime suspense romance with an erotic edge. My heroes are hot, Alpha males whose beasts within run on the wild side and their woman know just how to tame them.  

I was born and raised in Southern New Jersey but relocated to South Florida in the early 80's.

I have written in some form or other since age 11, but hadn't taken the craft seriously until the year 2000, when I wrote my first novel, Dancing on the Edge-a crime suspense novel published under a different pen name December, 2003 with ePress-Online, and is currently under consideration for contract with a new publishing house. 

My latest release, Bestial Cravings, a companion short to my series, Roma Wolf Tales, has held the #1 spot on The Wild Rose Press's Paranormal best seller's list for over six weeks now. Included in this series is Book I, Curse of the Marhime  also available at The Wild Rose Press.

Thanks to a family with an overabundance of imagination and a love for books of all kinds, I grew up learning the value of a good story. Early on, I realized writing was as essential to me as oxygen and recorded my first story at six and finished my first novel at twelve. Along with giving into my lifelong passion for storytelling, I work full-time and treasure motherhood while bringing up my son, daughter, and Cardigan Welsh Corgi.

Writer, archaeologist, historian, teacher and soon-to-be emigre, Olivia Lorenz writes hot historicals and contemporaries, both M/M and M/F. Sometimes edgy, sometimes ambiguous, romance is rarely straightforward or easy, and that's why she aims to share in her stories: real people dealing with real emotions, even when they're in unreal situations!

Colleen Love has always lived in her own fantasy world. Writing Contemporary Paranormal and Fantasy romance came as a natural part of her existence. Even while playing as a child, her world was enchanted by the Fae. Weather it was exploring the wild wood around her home, or wandering the vast Pacific beaches, life always seems to hold her under its enchantment. Colleen's muse loves to be the creator of her own worlds with unusual and fantastic characters. She likes to explore and breathe new life into old legends and stories that have faded into time, or something beyond what is here and now, maybe something that may have existed at one time, but no one really knows for sure. Add in a few monsters, sprinkle in a bit of magic, a warrior and a woman strong enough to counter the balance and there is the perfect story for her. Colleen loves to spend time with her family and critters. She loves to garden and play in the dirt, work with horses and her other critters. She saves writing for rainy days, being from the Pacific Northwest she writes a lot!

Hello, I’m Hywela Lyn, although I’ve always been called Lyn and am quite happy to answer to that – it’s easier to pronounce than ‘Hywela’! I lived most of my life in Wales, where I was born and raised, and Welsh myths and legends inspired much of my writing. My stories usually take place in that ‘other world’ of fantasy which might be in the far past or the far future but which relies on the heroes and heroine's courage and quick wits to survive the trials before them.

From an early age I had two great loves – books and horses. Nothing has changed, only now I write the stories I love to read and have two real horses of my own, rather than the imaginary ones I had as a child. I love the idea of space travel and starships, but I also like the idea of a tranquil world with little technology and a simple lifestyle. By writing science fantasy I can have it both ways! Come join me for romance that’s ‘out of this world’.

Missy Lyons is a romance author who currently lives in Nashville Tennessee with her family. Missy Lyons has a broad range of interests and writes in multiple genres.

As a neighbor to Rhett Butler and Scarlett O'Hara, Miss Mae suggests you carry a ready fan in hand. Not to cool the blush of your cheeks as you devour her romance books, but to swat at those Jurassic Park blood-sucking mosquitoes when you’re fool enough to sit under the limbs of those Spanish-moss draped live oak trees!

Okay. Reality check. Maybe I used to live in the area of bygone southern plantation homes, but now I reside in northern Georgia where the Appalachian mountains stretch as far as the eye can see. In either locale, my laid-back country roots has shaped my way of thinking and instilled my Pure Southern Genteel style of writing.

There are a lot of romance books in the world and some really terrific romance authors. But I choose to be somewhat different. I situate my romances with a good mystery. It’s the circumstances of the mysteries that throw my hero and heroine together. Once ensnared in the evil plot I plunge them into (wicked laugh), they can’t help but see that by story’s end that…well, shucks, they actually like each other!

Advice to New Writers

Hello! My first published novel has just been released and I’m still pinching myself. I have loved books and words since I can remember. Life took me on a bit of a detour, but now I can finally say I’m published. So many more stories are rattling around in this head of mine and I can’t wait to share them. I strive to make my stories fun, yet my hope is that my readers will find something of value in the message of my character’s journey.

From the time Shelley Munro was a little girl living in New Zealand, she wanted to be a detective. She read all the Famous Five mysteries by Enid Blyton before graduating to Nancy Drew and the Hardy Boys. Her favorite television viewing was Scooby Doo where she, in her invisible guise, helped Scooby solve the crime.

As happens with children, Shelley grew up and boys distracted her from childhood dreams. She found a boy she really liked and married him, traveling the world at his side until returning to settle in New Zealand. She now spends her days writing hot and spicy paranormal and contemporary tales for Ellora’s Cave and Cerridwen Press, some of which contain the odd body or two.

Romancing the World, A Word at a Time!

My muse is a bit fickle. She walks around in denim capris and cut-off t-shirts. So her mood depends on what the saying on the T is for the day.

A few things you will always find in my books are sexy alpha males, flavorful culture, and exotic locals with a heroine you can't help but love. Regardless of how much you want the hero for yourself. I love to travel, enjoying meeting people, and need to keep on a constant growing curve. My works absolutely hint on those qualities.

A sensual read that can transport you to any part of the world is my goal.

Greetings...I'm Eva Pasco, the Chick Lit Queen for Boomer Babes, confirming that love, passion, and adventure remain integral parts of a woman's life at any age.  Tired of reading stories exonerating women of financial means who forsook it all in the Second Act of Life to take up sky diving, mountain climbing, or seeking mysticism in Tibet,  I took a look around.  The women in my circle have commitments, obligations, and reservations about jumping outside the box.  Instead, we scrabble up the sides to peer over the edges.  That's when Carla Matteo stepped into my field of vision with all of her quirks, inhibitions, anxieties, and fears.  The seeds for my Romance/Women's Fiction novel, UNDERLYING NOTES,  were sown.

More than a cocktail for hot flashes and fluctuating libido, UNDERLYING NOTES is grounded in reality, littered with debris from the Sixties, and driven by Carla's fragrance addiction. The "juice" offers incentive for her to find her own niche during a midlife renaissance, while the ominous rose note in Paloma Picasso forces her to confront a troubled past.

If you like ‘Sweet’ Edge of Your Seat Romantic Suspense/Mysteries you’ve come to the right place.  Don’t let the ‘Sweet’ fool you, my books are far from boring.  My heroines are strong-willed, often very opinionated, ladies who usually wind up in a big mess of trouble and need a handsome man to come along and bail them out—though they’d never admit to needing the help.  As suspense junkie, my ultimate goal in every story is to have the reader so engrossed they're up all night reading.

Writing is my passion. Since I like a variety of books, I write a variety. I have time-travel romances, historical romances and fantasy romances that are mostly historical. One of my time-travels is a contemporary with an 1886 gun-slinging heroine thrown into the present day. I also have a contemporary romantic suspense that received a highly sensual rating that thrilled me. I write romances that anyone can read and are not x-rated.

When I’m not writing romances, I write fantasy short stories that are set in the world of Augeas which is filled with magic and intrigue. I love the idea of magic and use it whenever I can. My newest release is a historical mystery. There is a romance in it, but the Dressed for Dying is more about the catching the killer.

If you like a story with love, suspense and maybe some paranormal aspects, drop by and check-out my stories.

In 2000 I became serious about writing and became a member of an online writers workshop & I'm still there. Each member helps the other to better their writing and I've learned a great deal from that workshop. I also belong to a couple of wonder yahoo groups. All members in each group help each other.

Anyway, I've gotten a couple of horror short stories sold. Plus I've completed my 1st novel MS and have an agent waiting for it. Plus I'm writing my 1st MM romantic erotica novel MS. Since  I like a lot of genre I'm dabbling in: horror, suspense, romantic suspense and maybe one day a comedy or even a mystery or two.

Sara Reinke's mother will tell you she began writing stories almost from the moment she could toddle upright. Her debut fantasy, "Book of Days," from Double Dragon Publishing was named one of the top 10 sci-fi/fantasy titles of 2005 in the Preditors & Editors Readers Poll and a finalist in the Dream Realm Awards. She has followed up that success with four best-selling sequels to date.

A science-fiction thriller, "Tethers" is available in ebook from Samhain Publishing and will also be out in paperback in February, 2007. Sara has also explored other genres, and fallen in love with the world of vampires, psychics, shapeshifters and psychos that comprise paranormal romance. Her Kensington Publishing/Zebra debut, "Dark Thirst," about a vampire who longs to be human, will hit bookstore shelves in July, 2007. She is a wife and mother to a toddler, hates dusting, loves anything with carbohydrates and is on a personal quest to find the world’s best cheeseburger.

Hello readers! I write erotic romance, often paranormal, although I throw in some contemporary as well. I’ve been writing as long as I can remember, and I’ve been a full time writer for the last few years. My books are red hot, and often include ménages. Expect some kink, some male/male sex in the context of the ménage, frank language, and a whole lot of sizzling sex. I love to include elements of magic in my stories, and my characters are often witches.

You can check out my website here and my blog here.

Judith Rochelle writes contemporary romance, mostly romantic suspense. I live in the Texas Hill Country, surrounded by hunky cowboys, gorgeous landscapes and an oversupply of alpha males. I live with my three cats, a herd of deer, a raccoon named Ralph and a pair of roadrunners named Katherine and Eugene. When I’m not writing I read, watch football and collect wine. My imagination never shuts off so if you see me out and about I’m usually being nosy about the people around me and scribbling in a journal I carry with me. Also, my friends laugh because a lot of my ideas come to me in the shower. I should probably spend more time in there.

Whether we're falling in love or trying to say in love, love is a mystery.  Recovering from a broken heart, building trust, miscommunication, speculation, or emotional walls that we place around ourselves are just a few of the barriers within a relationship.  We don't always have to be facing or running from danger to be within a mystery (though there is that.) 

Love always has some type of mystery to weed through in order to get to the good stuff.  I love romance and mystery, so I combined them to create a happily-ever-after for anyone who picks up an Emma Sanders' book.  Join me here to find out more about me and my books!

At home in Maryland, I've been creating characters and writing short stories since I was a little girl, but it was my love of reading—and a gentle push from my husband—that finally inspired me to write novels.   To date, all my books have been on the BESTSELLER list at Whiskey Creek Press! 

I love chatting with readers, answering their questions, and discussing their opinions on not only my books, but on life in general, as well.

Although I’ve lately been enthralled by creating paranormal fiction with varying levels of sensuality, my work as a whole spans a wide range of genres. It's currently and/or soon to be published by Ellora's Cave, Cerridwen Press, Samhain Publishing, Double Dragon Publishing, and MojoCastle Press.

Some day, when I allow myself to take the time and make the effort, I'd like to secure an agent and break into the wild 'n' woolly world of "da big dogz" in New York. Right now, though, I'm just too focused on my writing.

Please come isit me at MySpace!

Welcome to my little corner of cyberspace.

Creating characters and developing stories is something that I love to do. It brings me joy. Sharing those stories, knowing that my characters are capturing the imagination of others? Well, that's even a greater thrill.

I was first published in 2005 and in 2007 was able to leave what I used to call my “real life” job to pursue writing and working in the publishing industry full-time. The years that I spent working in the psychiatric field definitely influences my writing, allowing me to bring a unique perspective to my characters and their stories.

I currently live in Southern California with my husband of seventeen years, my fourteen-year-old son, and my cocker spaniel, Buck. My husband is a social worker who works with abused children. He’s an avid sailor who loves to surf, and you’ll find bits of him in every hero that I’ve ever written. My son is wonderfully sensitive, with a sarcastic sense of humor. He plays piano, composes his own music, is a competitive fencer, and worships video games.

I’ve written in a variety of romance sub-genres including romantic suspense, contemporary, historical, and paranormal. For the past two years I’ve been immersed in the writing of my Forbidden urban fantasy series, which USA Today Best Selling Author Kelley Armstrong says is, "A steamy romance with the perfect mix of drama and humor."

The series offers what I think of as a fresh new twist on the classic vampire tale of seduction. It has a heroine that you’ll envy and a hero that you’ll find yourself wanting to spend eternity with. Have I tempted you yet? Good. As my hero Byron Renfield would say, “Sometimes, temptation can be a good thing.”

Come step inside my imagination…

Always loving to write, I wrote for fun on the side. Hearing about a contest for erotic romance, I decided to give it a try. Now with my first story coming out with Red Rose Publishing this month, it has inspired me to write other stories of all types of heat levels.

An erotic romance author who loves an Alpha male (or two)

Jeanne is an erotic romance author who loves to write about an Alpha male. Especially one in uniform: cops, Feds, or even football players! She started telling tales when she was 13 years old. She resides in south central Pennsylvania near Hershey chocolate and the Amish. She's a HUGE Steelers fan!

Her hot and steamy contemporary romances can include a male/female, a menage (male/male/female) or male/male relationship. It depends on what's floating her boat at the moment.

So, grab a cup of coffee, pop in and poke around her forum a bit. Don't forget to say hi!

Experience the romance and elegance of Regency and Gerorgian England with books by Hazel Statham.

 In my books you will experience humor pathos and sometimes danger but always there is love.  In my world of historical romanceI love to create characters my readers can truly care about.  I started writing at the age of 15 (many many moons ago).  I don't know what made me start to write only that it was a compulsion I couldn't ignore and that compulsion remains with me today.  I hope you enjoy reading my books about these fascinating eras as much as I enjoy writing about them.

'Dominic' A man of his time!

The idea of magical abilities had always fascinated me, starting with King Arthur and Merlin. Eight books in my Druid series deal with the fairly modern people who have inherited Druid powers, and how they use their powers to help the good guy (or gal) and defeat the villain. Have started a new series about Mages, hoping to title it the Magical Mages. Few know what a mage is, so I start the first book, Damien's Destiny, with an explanation of the word. Merlin was a mage. and the sexy cover  and excerpt for Damien's Destiny is on my website. 

The lure of magic is still strong. Love to answer questions or just chat about Druids and Mages. Let's chat!!!!  Do you believe abilities can be inherited?

I write Erotic Romance or Romantica (trademark) for Ellora's Cave. My first e-book, Leather and Lace is marketed as a contemporary story but crosses over into the romantic suspense genre, which I love. Please join me to discuss my book or anything else you'd like to talk about. I'd also love to hear from other authors who are thinking about entering into this field. It's honestly incredible to have the freedom to allow your characters to take over and throw the rules out the window. To delve deeply into their relationship and allow them all the freedoms and inner discovery of a fulfilling, wild sexual relationship. It's hot, hot, hot! Visit my web site!

Erotic Romance Excerpts (adults only)

I love writing romantic suspense because it throws the hunky hero and intrepid heroine together under extraordinary circumstances and pits them against a clever villain. Although some of my books are set in the state of Maine, where I live, I write about more exotic settings as well, such as a sultry Caribbean island and romantic Italy. Reviewers have called my stories fast-paced, thrilling, action-packed, sizzling, and highly emotional.

My books have received the Golden Leaf and Laurie awards and finaled in the Bookseller's Best and the Daphne. My most recent book, Deadly Memories, was a 2006 Romantic Times Magazine Top Pick and Reviewer's Choice Award nominee. I live with my husband on the coast of Maine. A former teacher, I enjoy curling up with a good book, gardening, walking the dog, sailing (if the day is sunny and the wind light), and hiking (if the trail is moderate). Look for my next release, Primal Obsession, due out in late 2008. Please visit my website to read excerpts and enter my contest.

I love to "chat" with readers and fellow writers. Let's get acquainted. I love to talk about writing and books, romance and romantic suspense.

When you need a little paranormal in your romance.

Welcome to my forum! Grab a latte and come chat a while.  I write paranormal romantic suspense. There’s nothing I enjoy more then a good book filled witches, psychics, werewolves, or vampires facing a life or death situation. However, I also enjoy a good male/male erotic romance and I’m currently working on a m/m vampire story.  If you enjoy these books too come on in and get comfortable. For more info visit my website.

If you like accurate historical romances without compromising steamy intimate scenes between vivid and addicting characters, then you've come to the right place. Renee Vincent is a highly energetic author, whose traits are naturally transformed into her writing of face-paced, action-filled, plot-twisting epics in the tumultuous time period of 10th Century.

Her passions include Norse and Irish history, horses, and irresistible, brawny warrior heroes. RÆLIKSEN, her first historical romance that debuted in Dec. 2008, is jam packed with those and more. The sequel, MAC LIAM, due to release in 2010, will not disappoints either, as a love triangle - initially mentioned in RÆLIKSEN - will unfold and completely tantalize.

Come with me to a different place and time...

Greetings from the Heart of Texas where I live with my journalist husband and two dogs—Jolie Blon, a spoiled Cajun poodle; and Mardi Gras, a retired pet therapy dog.

Here in Texas, lots of things really are larger than life, including some of my characters, but what better setting for romantic comedy? We may be big, but we also know how to laugh at ourselves.

When she was little, Anita Whiting would spend hours reading. It didn’t matter whether it was in the bathtub, in a car or huddled under the covers with a nightlight after her mother thought she was in bed. By the time she was in the sixth grade, she was trying her hand at poetry and short stories some of which were published in the school newspapers. However, it was only after raising three children and working as an obstetrical nurse for years that she finally tried her hand at a full length novel. It went so well that she wrote another and another. Nothing pleases her more than reading a good book and she hopes you feel the same about hers.

Excerpts

Science Fiction Erotic Romance author and creator of the P.I.A.C.T Undercover agent series -- S.J's future worlds and societies are so real you'll forget, while reading, that interstellar space travel doesn't exist. S.J.'s character driven universe is as tough and variable as the people who inhabit it, characters who live and love as hard as the cold vacuum of the space which houses them.

The depth of descriptive detail and personality within the P.I.A.C.T. series has reviewers describing the novels as "emotionally intense and romantic" and to hail them as a "definite keeper." Searing novels that are "so sensual that your partner should be within reach," and so realistic they'd "have given Gene Roddenberry a run for his money."

If you like your romance to be an unforgettable adventure, full of new and strange worlds, then come along and see what P.I.A.C.T is all about. If you need your heroes and heroines to be gritty, real life people who deal with life's disasters and love so deeply they are willing to die for it, then S.J's novels should be more than enough to satisfy your desires -- completely.
