I’m a new Aphrodisia author and this is my first time posting here at the blog. Some Like It Rough (don’t you just love that cover?!) will come out March 2010. I know, it’s a long way off still, but I’m very excited to be in an anthology with such lovely authors as Kate Pearce and Susan Lyons.
Here’s a little bit about each of our stories:
“Some Like It Rough” by Kate Pearce
Luke Warner wants to chill out when he cashes in his hectic life in Silicon Valley and return to his hometown. But things heat up when he reunites with his best friends, Julia and Paul, and invites them both to share in a sexual adventure like they’ve never had before…
“Private Eyes” by Susan Lyons
Assigned to work undercover as an exotic dancer, straight-laced Haley Croft discovers the thrill of strutting her stuff. And when she catches sexy PI Ry Montana checking out her moves, she can’t wait to give him his own private show…
“Cherry on Top” by Anne Rainey
When massage therapist Cherry DuBois rubs her oil-slicked hands all over Dante Ricci’s rock-hard body, red-hot desire courses through her. She longs to lose control and give herself to the pleasures of sexual submission…
Sexy enough for ya?
Okay, so I feel like giving away an ebook! All you have to do is leave me a comment, telling me what you think of the blurbs above, and you’re entered to win.
