Congrats I’ll be in touch ![]()
Kate
Good morning all!
Luckily for me, I get the first opportunity to offer one blog commenter a copy of our upcoming anthology “Some Like it Rough”. Susan Lyons, Anne Rainey and I had a great time comparing stories and making sure we didn’t end up writing the same thing. But as you’ll see, all the novellas are very distinct and hot as hell in their own ways.
It’s my first contemporary effort for Aphrodisia, but I’m also scheduled to write a full length contemporary, which will come out in 2011. (I haven’t given up on my ‘Simply’s yet, don’t worry!)
So far we’ve had great reviews for the book as well, including 5 cherries from Whipped Cream Reviews.
Here’s the blurbage:
Some Like It Rough by Kate Pearce
Luke Warner wants to chill out when he cashes in his hectic life in Silicon Valley
and returns 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…
Just comment below to get a chance to win. I’ll announce the winner on this post by Wednesday:)
Have a great day!

by J · January 26th, 2010 at 7:24 pmDefinitely looking out for this one!
by Allison · January 27th, 2010 at 3:40 amWe authors did have fun brainstorming the ideas. We kind of figured the theme of the book was “kink that turns your crank” and I had a fun evening researching kink. Once I hit on exhibitionism and voyeurism, my buttoned-up soon-to-be stripper and her hot PI came to life very quickly. I know Kate and Anne and I had fun writing these stories. Hope you have as much fun reading them!
