Virtus Game, The Game: Author’s Cut, Virtus Saga Book 2 by Laura Tolomei

BUY Virtus Game!

BLURB
Previously published as Virtus, The Game, this book has been completely revised and doubled in size with the addition of many new scenes.

When Prince Duncan Caldwell has to enter Cecilia Hurst’s Game of Masters and Slaves, he already knows he’ll have to play Master if he intends to retrieve the pyramid Cecilia stole from the sacred Nephis Valley. And his choice for a slave can only be Ylianor Meyer, however fiercely Lord Christopher Templeton resents her and her overpowering erotic intrusion in a trip that should’ve been his and Duncan’s alone.

No, make that in a love that should’ve been his and Duncan’s alone!

Then, things precipitate into chaos, and Duncan’s new responsibilities will inevitably change everything forever, their inner balance included.

Such is the new setting of the Virtus Saga, where nothing is as it seems. Not the world, since its all-pervading sex drive hides a scary lack of violence. Not the people, since soul mates Prince Duncan Caldwell and Lord Christopher Templeton burn from a love that is unrivaled until that fateful knock on Ylianor Meyer’s dilapidated shack.

This book picks up right where Virtus Sex, Book 1, leaves off and explodes lust and leadership into estrangement and chaos. It’s a unique connection, laced with such jealousy and violence that are unknown to their world. Not just another erotic dark fantasy series, this is the making of a trio. Of three remarkable characters that must overcome their uncontrollable lust to face the truth about themselves and their planet if they want to defeat the darkness about to devour them. To be as one whilst three! To share power and love in equal measures. That’s their real challenge, the lesson they must learn. Otherwise, how will their world survive?

Why don’t we make it more difficult for her?
(PG Bondage Excerpt)
“Hey, Angel.” Yanking his hair, Duncan snapped his head back. “What do you say we make it more difficult for her?”
“For her?” Seemed to him, he and Duncan were in serious trouble just because she was there. “What do you have in mind?” Resigned to have the fastidious woman torment him also during his favorite activity, he groaned.
“Just a more fitting attire.” A broad grin split the prince’s handsome face before he spun his gaze on her. “Strip,” his tone became colder. “And kneel.”
That she scrambled to obey, he guessed from the frantic movement he caught with the corner of an eye. Not that he bothered to look. He much rather preferred keeping his gaze trained on the black one now locked on his.
“This way, she won’t be able to hide how badly she wants us.” Duncan chuckled.
“If you really want her to suffer, there are more efficient means to do it,” he blurted the words before he had the chance to think.
“Like tying her up?” For someone who had never loved any kind of bondage, the prince seemed to have a surprising ability to be one step ahead of him.
“Exactly.” Well, maybe this might just turn out not so bad, after all.
“Very well.” Letting go of his hair, Duncan reclined on the couch. “Can’t wait to see what your fertile imagination will come up with.”
If this was not a dare, he did not know what was. Straightening, he went to a small chest next to the couch. Opening the lid, he spotted several pieces of ropes and took them all. Then, he whirled around and saw her.
Body slightly trembling, she studied him coldly, almost defiantly. Like she had the night he had carved her to bits, she seemed to be expecting the worst from him, ready to sustain whatever cruelty he would inflict. Goddamn it, he just loved it!
So much, his equipment had a quite visible jerk, something she had no trouble noticing and counting as a measure of victory over him.
Ha! He would just have to show her worse than he had planned, and nothing would work better than the low table beside her.
“Get up there and kneel,” he snapped.
If she obeyed, she was not as prompt as she had been with Duncan, which was just as well. She was giving him one more excuse to be a vicious bastard.
Going around her, he clamped her wrists and tugged them backward. Hard and ruthless, he wrenched both arms until her hands almost touched the floor, and she had to arch her back if she did not want to break it. Absolutely perfect this way, he crossed over her arms, fastening just above the left elbow to the right ankle, the right elbow to the left ankle. Buttressing the bondage, he tied more rope around both ankles and elbows until she could not budge an inch.
“By the gods!” Rising from the couch, Duncan approached her. “I suspected you were good at this but never thought you could be such a master.”
“Had a lot of practice while playing my…games.” Unwilling to dwell on just how many of his victims he had tied down to torture more efficiently, he got up and reached his phase mate.
“Only thing, Angel…” The prince was eating her up with mere glances alone. “I’m not sure you achieved the desired effect.”
He looked.
And he could have kicked himself for having done such a splendid job of it!

ABOUT Virtus Saga

The Virtus Saga is an Erotic Dark Fantasy Paranormal Romance Series that Explores the Dark and Light Side of Power and Love between Three People

But it’s also the Making of a Trio: the Virtus Saga shows how power and love can be equally shared.

9 books in all, 3 unforgettable characters with super-powers, 1 sinister pyramid, 1,000 scorching MMF erotic scenes, 1 tense battle good versus evil.

Now completed, Laura Tolomei’s erotic dark fantasy series is continuing to receive critical acclaims. The concept of a world free of violence attracts readers. The fiery MM and MMF sex keep them hooked to every page. The titles say it all:

Book 1) Virtus Sex, The Sex: Author’s Cut (previously published as Virtus, The Sex, it has been completely revised and doubled in size with the addition of many new scenes)
Book 2) Virtus Game, The Game: Author’s Cut (previously published as Virtus, The Game, it has been completely revised and doubled in size with the addition of many new scenes
Book 2.5) Not In The Game, Deleted Scenes from The Game
Book 3) The Festival
Book 4) The Leader
Book 5) The Pledge
Book 6) The Heat
Book 7) The Princess
Book 8) The Lord

These books drip passion and lust from every page. Skillfully woven inside an imaginary frame ruled by magical powers, divided between good and evil, they are the key elements that will help the heroes’ struggle for survival.

The way it starts and progresses, nothing is as it seems. Soul-mates Prince Duncan Caldwell and Lord Christopher Templeton share an unrivaled love until Duncan takes shelter in Ylianor Meyer’s dilapidated shack. Ylianor has always loved Duncan, and while Duncan is attracted to her, she remains a servant—okay to bed, but not acceptable consort material. Unwilling to accept it, Ylianor vows she will do anything, even come head to head with his insufferable lover, to stay at his side.

But there is more going on than either of the three realize.

Lord Arthur Fairchild, Leader of the High Council, knows his planet Sendar is doomed unless the predestined Hero steps in and blocks the darkness threatening to take over. And even if one person alone fits the bill, Arthur does the unthinkable—not only does he summon the Hero, but the Hero’s consorts as well.

Sendar needs these three special people to become fully aware of their powers and learn how to use them together. Working above and beyond their personal issues, they’ll have to become one whilst being three to make it through the difficult times ahead. If they do not, the Virtus which holds all of Sender’s secrets could destroy them all.

ABOUT AUTHOR Laura Tolomei

AUTHOR Laura Tolomei

Born in Rome, Italy, I am Italian and now live in Alicante, Spain. I am also the author of 30+ books in the very particular and unique genre of Erotic Romance with an Edge. I have been traveling the globe since age five and have no intention of quitting. After having been an avid reader all my life, I decided at age forty to write my own stories, and they had to be about sex, given the way it affects human and social relationships, inevitably changing them despite our beliefs to the contrary. After all, sex is the foundation of our society, the root of many prejudices, and the basis of its dual nature. But sometimes, individuals can’t relate to these conventions, so I analyze and challenge them, indicating alternative lifestyles that people could pursue.

I write both in Italian and English, mostly fiction of various genres, from dark fantasy erotica to mysteries up to everyday ordinary life stories. Among others, they include the Virtus Saga books, all eight of them, not to mention the Soulmate and ReScue Series, along with several horror novels and a few historical ones, too. eXtasy Books is one of my premier publishers specializing in erotic literature. If you’ve never read anything of mine and would now care for a taste, you can download all my novels’ first chapters in PDF by clicking on the “Read First Chapter” icon in my books’ web pages or download the short story I’m Coming.

Designing the Perfect Romance Cast Register by April 29th and save $5, use code ROMANCECASTKNIGHT2024 at checkout! In this brand-new month-long online class, New York Times bestselling author Angela Knight discusses the importance of creating the perfect cast for the kind of romance you’re trying to write.

A memorable romance cast is more than the sum of its parts. To create an effective book, all the characters – protagonists, antagonists, and minor characters – must work together as a unit. And each must fit the kind of book you’re trying to write. Leatherface of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre does not belong in a Rom Com. Nor do you want minor characters to steal the book.

But how do you create a good cast for this particular book and the audience you’re aiming for?

Angela discusses how to design your heroic couple for each other, along with the minor characters and sidekicks who help make the protagonists three-dimensional.

She’ll also talk antagonists and their henchmen, and how to use them to create tension and excitement.

Next, she’ll explore dialogue, humor and arguments as a way to develop character and conflict.

The result will be a firm foundation for your book so you won’t be flailing in the dark, trying to figure out why the heck your book isn’t working.

Lessons in this month-long online class will be posted on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. On Tuesdays and Thursdays, students may email scenes to Angela for her private critique and suggestions.

Check out #marteekakarland #hot #MC series #GrimRoad series. Save at #changelingPress #Rocket #Lemon #Bullet These belong on your #keeper shelf

Rocket: My life pretty much took a hard left a year ago when I first met Lemon. She’s wise beyond her years and as abrasive and sarcastic as they come. The second she busts my VP’s balls -- literally -- I know I’d never be able to forget her. A year later I’m still infatuated with the vicious woman. When she runs off to charge hell with a water pistol, I’m right behind her wondering how we’re gonna get out of this one alive. But I have a smile on my face and a determination to give this woman anything she wants. Even if it means some things in my club are going to have to change.

Lemon: Look. This is supposed to be all about how Rocket caught my eye and I decided I wanted him but there were obstacles and… phfffffff… Forget all that. What you need to know is when people are stupid, they need a kick in the… Crap. I’m not supposed to swear here. Grrrrr! Anyway, this is where I come in. Grim Road needs fixing. I’m not exactly qualified to do club… garbage, but Rocket? Yeah. I might have decided I’ll keep him, so… I’m great at whipping people into shape. Grim Road, meet Lemon. See me, love me, MF’ers.

Rocket: Just pass me the beer and popcorn…

Lemon: I’m settling in at Grim Road in my role as vice president. The men test me, but it’s all in good fun. I think I enjoy it as much as they do. Then, out of nowhere, things go horribly sideways. I realize how much weaker I am physically than everyone else in the club. That weakness can be a horrible liability. Yeah. Things are going great. Until they aren’t. I may have bitten off more than I can chew…

Rocket: My little sourpuss is a force to be reckoned with. She takes everything dished out to her and gives it back in spades. She’s my VP, but she’s also my old lady. Sometimes, I need to take care of her. More importantly, she has to let me. That fact is never more apparent than when a small team of roughnecks think she’s a woman from another club.

Watch for Knox....he`s coming

Book 4 : The Relic Hunter Series
code DISCOUNT20 (as written) to get 20% the price!
A new relic hunt. A new evil…

Resident Relic Hunter for Deva’s Fae Council is a title Bethany Aodhán never wanted, but it isn’t like she has a choice. And in truth, the appointment might just aid her quest to find her mother’s murderers—because at least one of those responsible is a member of the council, and getting access to their records could give her the connection and their identity.

But before she can be given her first task or even start her behind-the-scenes hunt, a building belonging to Cynwrig Lùtair—the highborn dark elf who is not only her council liaison but lover—is set alight, and they barely escape with their lives.

Kissed by the Alien is the second book of the Holiday Heartmates series by Julie K. Cohen.

Lexi is amazing! She’s strong, brave, resourceful, fearless, stubborn and feisty. And she has such a kind and compassionate heart. Even more, I loved her courage, determination and confidence to do the things she does and to face any challenges and hardships thrown her way. Lexi is a wonderful woman and I loved her so, so much!

And Lutan is such an incredible male! He’s brooding, quiet, fearsome and not very fond of Earth. And he’s also honorable, kind and fiercely protective. But the Zyanthan warrior also carries so much guilt and pain inside his heart. Nevertheless, Lutan is amazing and I adored everything about him!

I absolutely loved everything that happened between Lexi and Lutan! While on a mission to track down illegal blasters that keep finding their way on Earth, Lutan captures a male who turns out to be no man at all. I loved those two together! I loved their instantaneous attraction and their chemistry was fantastic. Even more, their banters, bargaining and teasing were so much fun to read. Lexi and Lutan might seem to be on opposite sides of the law, but they fit so well together. I loved how protective Lutan was of Lexi and I adored Lexi for standing her ground and never backing down from challenges and danger. And, yet, both had so many things they needed to deal with. Lutan also really did his best to stay away from Lexi, but fate cannot be denied. And when they couldn’t resist the undeniable need for one another anymore, the passionate moments they shared were so hot! I just love the Zyanthan warriors and all their… extras! Lexi and Lutan were so perfect for each other and, after everything both went through, they deserved to find happiness and love together!

Overall, Kissed by the Alien is another fantastic addition to the series! It’s filled with suspense, danger, action, drama, angst, twists, betrayals, humor, scorching hot passion and magnificent characters.
