    I’m one of the June authors with Damnation Books. They have me listed in the press release by my previous married name, Wendy Hawksley, but you’ll actually find me on DB and Amazon as Wendy Callahan. 🙂

    Well, “Dead Wrong” is a short dark urban fantasy novella about a vampire who is trying to forget a devastating past when she encounters one of the people she has tried to push out of her memory. Once he shows up, she ultimately realizes that she needs to face her past head-on.

    There are a couple of erotic scenes in the book with strong language, but the story is mostly focused on the vampire heroine trying to figure out exactly what she wants between the lover she’s trying to keep at arm’s length and her existence as a vampire, and facing her desire for revenge against the people who caused all of her problems in the first place.

    Here’s hoping that, no matter what everybody is reading this June, all of you enjoy your summer! I know I’ve got some new books on my bedside table just waiting for my attention. 😀

    Mandi, my first novel, is a fast trip through a corporate fantasyland of sex and power. My publisher, eXtasy Books, gives the story its highest rating for erotic content.
    Mandi has everything going for her—brains, looks, education, personality, ambition. She wants life at the top, she wants it now, and she’ll do anything to get it. A recommendation from the professor she’s slept with through graduate school gets her a job as the personal—very personal—assistant to Alex Leed, to one of the world’s most powerful corporate executives. He introduces her to a new product the corporation is ready to release. The Fire Genie is a sex pill that creates almost unlimited potency and desire in women and men. Mandi’s life tangles up in a hurry. She finds herself at the summit of power. Then she is overwhelmed by the Master Genie, a potency that enslaves her mind, body, and libido. After her desperate escape, her life crashes. She pieces it together enough to see that there is one man who wants the woman she is when she’s stripped of power, money, and success.
    Earning a five-flame rating from eXtasy books isn’t easy. The publisher demands a sharp story that rides on a deep river of eroticism. This novel brings it constantly, in every entertaining variety and combination I could imagine (so far).
    Excerpts are available at http://extasybooks.com/, at http://www.valerieherme.com/, and in my daily Twitter.

    Ellspeth, captain of the Sea Falcon, is determined to make her own destiny, and that did not include love…or magic. Despite his insolent attitude, she is attracted to the dark-haired dockworker she hires to help unload the vessel’s cargo. When the supposed dockhand reveals he is Lord Dal, the last member of the Council of Wizards, and her passenger, Ellspeth breaks a cardinal rule—fraternizing with the paying customers. Bringing him back from near-death releases Ellspeth’s latent powers and threatens her captaincy. For to have magic she must give up the sea.

    In accordance with an ancient prophecy, Dal allows Ellspeth to be handfasted to him without her knowledge or consent. However, the prophecy doesn’t state whether she will return his love. A likelihood threatened as the deception is unveiled and they are hunted by fanatical clerics bent on ridding the world of magic and those who wield it.

    Trapped within the Oracle’s Temple and marked for sacrifice, Ellspeth is forced to choose between survival, saving the future of magic…or love.

    Now that you’ve set sail with Windmaster on an adventure into magic and love, steer a course to helenhenderson-author.webs.com for an excerpt of this 97,000 word fantasy, filled with action and romance.

    Here’s hoping that, no matter what everybody is reading this June, all of you have a safe and happy summer.

FREE - Midnght`s Mystery by Ravyn Wilde https://bit.ly/4lCTrAC When a Dragon Lord kidnaps her fledglings, Midnight kicks his ass and gets the girls back. But then the Lord surprises her, overwhelms her with the help of a mysterious dragon-male, and hides her from her coven.

Matei wants Midnight to become his ideal women. All she needs to do is wear more clothes, stop saving humans, and quit using her magic. She is going to kill him. She has no interest in staying home and playing house!

Midnight is overwhelmed fighting eco-terrorists and three fledgling Dragon Witches who want to stretch their wings. Realizing dragonkynd is almost extinct—she is now forced to search for a male of her species. But she doesn’t want one for herself, another member of her coven can breed the next generation.

Matei wants a submissive mate, just like his mother. But when his brother is kidnapped, he discovers he needs the warrior in Midnight to save his brothers. These Dragon Witches don’t behave anything like what he was taught to believe a true female of their species should act.

Will Matei give up his dream of finding a submissive mate, and realize the depth of his feelings for Midnight? Can Midnight teach the overbearing, out-of-touch Lord how to survive in the real world? Even more important, will anyone live through the evil plot to annihilate the dragonkynd race?

Midnight’s Mystery is an insta-love, fated-mates, hard-earned happily-ever-after story. (They work hard for that happiness.) It is the seventh book in Ravyn Wilde’s paranormal series, Creatures of Myth. This ménage romance is filled with snarky humor and action-packed adventure. If you love sexy dragons, magic spells, kick-ass heroines, and nail-biting suspense—you’ll love this!

Beauty, Treachery, and an Untamed Wild Love

Liliann Varga had been too young the first time she met and fell head-over-heels in love with the Blackfeet Medicine Man, First Rider, the man who saved her father’s life. Besides, he was newly married to a woman of his own tribe. But years later, when Liliann’s husband has committed a terrible aggression against her, it’s First Rider who once again is called upon to put his healing skills to use.

First Rider has come to heal Liliann, not to seduce her. But his reaction to the grown up Liliann, the little girl who used to be his shadow, is entirely masculine and sensual. Though he’d vowed to bring his first wife back after her capture by an enemy tribe, he`d failed and she had died, causing First Rider to nearly lose his mind. Could Liliann be his second chance at love?

Enacting a “scout’s revenge” against Liliann`s cruel husband would leave the man alive but broken, and it would also set Liliann free. But, just as their love deepens, a report emerges: First Rider`s wife is still alive. To discover the truth or lies of the rumor, they both embark on a dangerous journey through the Backbone-of-the-world Mountains.

But, with little more than a bow and a gun, can they survive the beautiful but treacherous snows to find a world where they both belong?

Warning: Sensuous Romance that could cause a gal to climb the highest mountain to find true love.

Hey Beautiful!

🔥🔥Welcome to Alicia`s Newsletter🔥🔥

Hot Pick of the Day!

Collection of Four Amazing Stories full of Romance, Surprises and Little Magic.

BOOK 1: GRUMPY DRAGON NEXT DOOR
Beth
I knew that life in York Town was going to be different, especially when the second morning my hot but rude neighbor banged on the wall because I didn’t catch the alarm in time.
It went downhill from there. I was constantly throwing barbs his way, but a few stung when they were thrown back. I saw him differently when he saved my son, and the rough façade fell away. What was left, a man I fell in love with.
But he was something else, something dangerous. I’d fallen for a monster, but I still wanted him.
A human and a fire dragon, how could that work?

BOOK 2: ALPHA WOLF’S SURROAGATE
After years of trying, the Alpha King must have an heir—no matter what it took. He didn’t have emotions. All he knew was to fight battles and to expand his boundaries. So kidnaping Moonlit was no big deal for him…

Moonlit
As an outsider in the Royal clan, all I wanted to do was belong. I was willing to do anything to prove myself and my worth.
A tournament with a tempting prize reeled me in. This was my chance and I won.
Before I could celebrate my happiness, I learned I was stabbed in the back. I didn’t win but put my life in jeopardy. He wanted me for something else, to be the Royal surrogate! He wouldn’t take no for an answer, like I could say it anyway.
But when he was...

Carol Van Den Hende https://bit.ly/45LkzsF Welcome, today we are talking with Carol Van Den Hende! Thanks, Carol, you for taking time out of your busy schedule to answer a few questions. First, let`s delve into who you are.

You are involved in so many activities besides writing. Can you tell us a little about them?

Like many Coffee Time Romance readers, I wear multiple hats. For instance, I’m a wife and a mom to twins. By day, I lead the Responsible Use of AI (Artificial Intelligence) for Mars Incorporated. Outside of work, I enjoy contributing on Boards of Directors; recently I served on the Board for a school for students with autism.

Can you share a little something about yourself that’s not mentioned in your bio on your website?

I’m an avid pet parent to two Siberian kitties, one skittish and one goofy. Follow me on social media, and you’ll often see their furry faces on my Facebook or Instagram feeds.

For fun, I love to move to music. At my gym, you might find me grooving to Zumba, Hip-Hop or Bollywood dance classes. If you’ve read my books, have you noticed how my main character Orchid Paige loves to dance?

How long have you been writing?

I’ve been penning stories since childhood. The Goodbye Orchid series was a decade in the making.

What have you found most challenging about it?

I lead a busy life, so I often feel short on time for writing. When I’m able to carve out time, I treasure it and strive to make the most of it!

Now, let’s hear about your series, Goodbye Orchid, which has won awards for Disability Awareness. Can you tell us a little more about the books?

The series asks the question: ‘What happens when life changes in an instant?” In Orchid Blooming, you’ll meet half-Asian Orchid Paige, an executive in the beauty industry whose life changed when she lost her parents at a young age. Now as an adult, she wants to win a work trip to Asia, to feel closer to the memory of her ...
