Sunday Sexcerpt

AJ, will be sharing a sexy teaseer from the first draft of "Rebel Hearts," his Revolutionary War novel.

English gentlewoman Amanda Pelham is orphaned and homeless due to the enmity of local squire Sir Stephen Mountford, but she's not without friends to help her face her enemy.Robert Beckwith, a lawyer of genteel birth has fallen head over heels for Amanda, and is doing all he can to help. In this excerpt, he's returning with news that evidence exists that willbring the man down.

Amanda had never expected any bold man to climb into her room at night, although the tales she'd heard from some of her acquaintances had made the prospect an interesting one. Now here she was, with a bold, handsome, and intelligent young fellow coming in over her sill!

And making a mess of it, she thought as he struggled to get over the edge. He must feel embarrassed, for his face turned a distinct shade of cherry. "Here, Robert. Let me help you."

She stepped forward and took him by the arms, and somehow contrived to assist him inside. He stood now with his back to the open window and the starry night sky beyond, looking down at her with a wonderful expression of devotion. And that engaging blush lingered.

"You must be so tired, my good friend." She went to the small table and poured him a glass of wine from the bottle she'd brought up from the inn's small stock. "Please, sit and take some refreshment. I've been sitting in bed and listening for you for hours." He doffed his coat and hat and sat on the chair. "It's nearly one o'clock, Amanda. You too must be tired."

"No, it seems like no time at all now you're here. I'm so looking forward to your news." She sat on her bed and looked at him. He didn't seem like the bearer of bad tidings. "Is there good news?"

As he recounted his tale of events she felt the weight lift from her heart. When he announced the existence of evidence enough to bring down the hated Sir Stephen, her soul rejoiced.

"Oh, that's wonderful, wonderful news!" she exclaimed and ran over to hug him. He held her close, his body warm and firm and smelling of perspiration and an exciting scent she could only define as manly. "You are a good, dear friend, Robert," she whispered, and turning her head, she gazed into his eyes. He blinked, his head moved a little closer to hers and then she was sitting on his lap and they were kissing, tentative at first, then deep and passionate. Everything seemed to whirl up and around and away until they were in the center of a small lamp-lit world that contained only themselves.

When finally they moved apart, he stroked her hair and gazed at her with an earnest, yearning expression. "I would be so much more than a friend to you, Amanda..."

I do wonder what will happen between Amanda and Robert. I do hope it's something naughty, don't you.

Love,

Tina

AuThursday - AJ Matthews

Today I'm interviewing fellow LSB author AJ Mathews the very talented writer of the Mr. Grey series. On with the intereview:

Q: What got you interested/started in writing?
I was -- still am -- a voracious reader. My first stumbling efforts were mainly adventure stories in homage to Heinlein, Azimov and the British author W. E. Johns. At nine years of age my grasp of the English language wasn't that good but I never lost that desire to create and people my own worlds.

Q: What tools do you feel are must-haves for writers?
If you're a reader you've got most of them in your head right now. Maybe it's a kind of osmosis but reading conveys a sense of rhythmm, grammar and syntax to the mind which serves as a template for written work. In physical terms, although I began writing on a typewriter (remember those?) I'd never be without my PC. A good dictionary is essential, and I'd recommend post-it notesfor those snapshot ideas that always seem to come at the most awkward moment!

Q: You write the popular Mr. Grey series for Liquid Silver Books. Any research involved for Ghost Hunting?
I've had some paranormal experiences which gives me an idea how most people would react. Britain is oneof the most haunted countries on Earth and there're plenty of stories and legends to draw from.

Q: Who are some of your favorite authors?
Lindsey Davis for her "Falco" series, Celine Chatillon, Dee S. Knight, Terry Pratchett.

Q: What´s coming up on your schedule, book-wise, in the next year?
I've just finished the first draft of a Revolutionary War novel. It's a stand alone book but the storyline has links to a future Mr. Grey novel. After that, I'll be working with another LSB author on a collaboration idea.

Q: IN YOUR BOOKS SO FAR WHO WOULD YOU SAY HAS THE FOLLOWING ANDWHY...............
A) THE BEST "PUT-DOWN-LINE"?
"Were you there with a lover?"
"No, just my wife." (Martin Grey explaining to Claudia why his first marriage broke down).
B) THE BEST "COME-ON-LINE"?
Mr. Grey and the Hotel Ghosts. Martin and Claudia share a long, close embrace after their first date - and Martin has an inevitable reaction.
He says "You'll have to excuse my...erm, reaction."
And she replies"I do. And if you're good I could find it in my heart to help you out there sometime."
C) THE BEST "COME-BACK-LINE"?
From an unpublished novel where the heroine has to deal with an amorous and amoral admirer.
"Here's the deal, Count Andrassy. You can do what you like with me whilst those banknotes burn!"

Q: WE ALL KNOW "SEX" SELLS............HAVE YOU EVER BEEN ASKED TO "SEX-UP-YOUR-BOOKS"?
LOL, yes, I have! It was The Ninth Wave, my first book. It began as a straight sci-fi novella, and grew under the influence of a good editor to a full novel full of sex and passion!

Q: TO DATE WHICH OF YOUR BOOKS WAS THE HARDEST TO WRITE AND WHY?
Lady in White was the hardest for the fact it has a complex plot which had to be set down right.

Q: Where can readers find you on the World Wide Web?

Saturday Sexcerpt!

Kayelle Allen has decided to share the below excerpt from her latest novella Alitus:


In this scene, Alitus and the Conqueror are finally alone in his hoversine (a flying limousine). As usual, anytime this woman gets Alitus alone, she has one thing on her mind. Gotta love a woman who knows exactly what she wants and goes after it. ;)

From Alitus
Tales of the Chosen

Alitus Vivaldi is a Better, an enhanced human bred for intelligence, discipline, and responsiveness. His combined talents in bed and politics take him from the Conqueror's favorite pleasure slave to her personal assistant. He quickly learns the way to her heart is passion, love, and loyalty. When the empire's political upheaval begins to nibble at her iron fist of control, the Conqueror must strip her favorite of his freedom and rights. To help the Conqueror accomplish her secret agenda, Alitus forsakes his identity and pride, and surrenders himself to his darkest fears. But will what he becomes save the Tarthian Empire and its Conqueror, or rock them both to their crumbling core?

Content: Graphic sex, light bondage, F/F/M menage, M/M sex, male submission, multiple partners, voyeurism, and some damn fine sex in a sleek flying limousine...

----

The empress trailed a hand along the top of Alitus' closest thigh. "I think you should use those pheromones on me now."

*Is that jealousy in her voice?* The most beautiful and powerful woman in the empire slipped her hand down the inside of his leg, firing his blood and his imagination at the same time.

"You wouldn't want me to be jealous, would you?" Her lashes lowered.

*Such a flirt she is...* Alitus had seen her jealous side only once, after Khyff had been stolen out of her Stable. No matter how many of her Stable members she'd used, she'd been impossible to please in bed. For days.

"I could never do anything that would make you jealous, Majesty. My life is yours." His android driver could not be affected by pheromones. Alitus released them fully into the air and enjoyed the sight of Destoiya succumbing to the calming influence of the powerful chemicals.

Her eyes became glassy, unfocused. He'd already made her wet on the way over here by playing with her. A second wave and she'd orgasm the moment he touched her.

"Alitus." She almost slurred his name. "You are more effective than the best sex enhancers in the universe."

"You're addicted to me, Majesty." He stroked the back of his hand down her throat and across her plump breasts. "You love me."

"Mmm." Destoiya wrapped one hand in his hair and pulled him down close to her. She brushed his lips with hers. "Just like you are to me, my love." She lay back on the seat and drew him atop her.

He never had to yield to Destoiya. She consumed him -- faster than a brush fire over dry leaves.

Alitus barely had time to unfasten his pants before she wrapped her fist around his cock and squeezed. Tugging him closer, she lifted her right leg to his shoulder and urged him inside her.

He reached down and ripped aside the fragile barrier of her thong panties, then shoved hard into her. Her sheath gripped him as tightly as her fist. Slick, wet, her body wrapped him, arms tight around his neck, her mouth sucking at his.

He released a final wave of pheromones. Destoiya's mouth opened in a sultry gasp. An orgasm rippled through her, milking him. She'd taken him twice earlier in the day. He could last now, make her come a few more times before he let go.

Laughing with the joy of seeing her release, Alitus drew her close, holding the empress while she writhed. He used his teeth to open her blouse, nudged the lapel aside with his nose and swept his tongue across her left nipple.

He worked one hand around the side to cup her breast and bring it to his mouth. Careful not to bruise, he clamped his teeth over the elongated nipple and sucked. He battered it with the tip of his tongue, flicking fast and hard until she arched toward him, forcing herself into his mouth.

"Oh, Alitus! Yes." Eyes closed, she opened her blouse, twisting her body to bare her other breast for his taking. Alitus curled his tongue around the nipple and drew it into his mouth. With his tongue, he worshiped the texture of her nipple.

Would he ever get over the awe of doing this with her? With the empress? The queen? The ruler of the empire? No. Not if they did it ten thousand times. Having this woman, this powerful and amazing woman beneath him, lost in lust -- it would never grow old. He submitted to her in everything, ordered his life to suit her purpose, yet in bed -- or anywhere they made love -- she offered herself to him in wanton desire. She was his.

It was him she wanted. Even when she'd taken others in her Stable she still came to him. Him she wanted. Him who satisfied her best.

He withdrew and slid down her ribs, licking a trail to her navel. He tweaked her nipples with his fingers and thumbs, pulling and twisting roughly, the way she liked it. He licked her the way she'd taught him. Wet. Sloppy. Hard. He dug into her skin with his tongue, adding small bites and kisses, tasting her, sucking at her skin.

She clutched both hands in her hair and moaned, arching away from him. Alitus pushed up her skirt and torn white lace panties.

Destoiya knew how much he loved her in white lace; loved to tear it off her. Any time she wore it, it was for him. He nuzzled her, inhaling her rich scent. He could taste her already.

Destoiya lifted her left leg and placed it atop the seat. With the right already hooked over his shoulder, she lay wide open beneath him. The darkened windows of the hoversine protected them, but the thought of having her so exposed while in the midst of traffic made Alitus even harder. His balls ached. Destoiya never wanted it once. It had to be again and again. The woman was a frenzied, sexual hurricane.

Her sex welcomed him; open from his earlier invasion, pink and moist. Her labia quivered. He slid two fingers inside her and felt the answering pulse of her orgasm. Alitus slid onto the floor of the hoversine so he could bend over her.

He slipped both first fingers up along the outside of her outer lips and spread them wide, revealing the throbbing bud of her clit. He rocked his hands to the side and dipped his thumbs inside her; she liked to be filled when she came.

Alitus bent to breathe across her labia and inhale her scent: a woman's musk, clean and salty. She glistened with moisture. He pushed the tip of his tongue up along the silky exterior of her sex, lifting her clit.

"Alitus. Oh, Alitus." Soft as a third echo, she repeated his name, her lips forming the words.

"You taste so sweet." He spread her lips and used the widest part of his tongue to stroke from her opening all the way up to her clit.

Destoiya tossed her head. She muttered curses in another language, but her pulsing vulva proved she was far from unhappy.

"Do you want more?" He sent a warm breath across her.

"Yes! Do it!"

"Tell me what you want." He made a tiny lick along her opening.

"Alitus!" She cursed again, half rising on one elbow. "Damn it! Don't tease me, slave. Mouth fuck me!"

He had not been her slave for years, but he cast her a smile, his cock twitching in pleasure. "As my Conqueror wishes." Alitus ducked his head and began to lick.

Her wetness soaked the leather seat as he licked and stroked. Her swollen lips and clit throbbed and pulsed. He'd learned when to gentle his touch to bring her off; how to flick only the tip of his tongue against her so she'd erupt.

She sobbed and bit her knuckles. "So hot. So hot." Her legs trembled, spread wide across his shoulders and the seat of the hoversine. Destoiya withheld nothing when she made love; she opened every part of herself. "Burn me, Alitus. Burn me with your mouth."

Passion. Addiction. Loyalty. Can true love bare its heart forever?

Welcome Kayelle Allen

Kayelle Allen is one of the talented authors at LSB. Recently she interviewed with me and I'm happy to share her answers with you:

Q: Do you have a favorite hero in all your books? For any particular reason?

Khyff Antonello. I created the concept for him a long time ago, and wrote him as a featured character in his brother's story, At the Mercy of Her Pleasure. However, when I wrote Khyff's own story in For Women Only, he truly came alive. He had a tragic past, and believed he was damaged goods. "No woman could ever love him. His own mother had taught him that when she turned her back on him." I realized that he would need a heroine who was strong enough to pull him back from the brink of destruction. Khyff had given up on living and was simply going through the motions, existing from day to day, putting one foot in front of the other. His heartache drove me to finish the story. To this day, I can't read the ending without getting tears in my eyes, because the joy in Khyff's heart is so real, so touching, and so profound.

Q: You’ve created quite a world with Liquid Silver’s Tales of the Chosen, what prompted it’s creation?

Thank you! I always believed that authors who created new worlds for their books and then totally threw them out with the next book and started over were missing a great opportunity. Sequels appeal to readers because they know the characters, the world, the rules of the universe. So I decided to create an entire universe that my characters could move around in. Right now, I'm writing stories set in the Tarthian Empire, but I have pockets of civilization all over the galaxy with stories that are waiting their turn to be told. I have two more books planned in the Chosen series, although there may be more. And another book that deals with Khyff and his brother Senth - a kind of reunion story. Then I'm off to start some new tales. Not that I'll abandon the Tarthian Empire! I have a great series there that I'm itching to begin also. So many stories. So little time...

Q: What is the hottest love scene you have written to date and why?

The one I'm working on now. That will always be true. I love the creation of a scene of any type. Although I do have to admit the pivotal scenes in each of my books are sometimes my favorites overall. When I talk about a book, or share excerpts, there is always one or two that contains sex. In At the Mercy of Her Pleasure, it's the one where Senth and NarrAy have sex for the first time, with him fully dressed in a tub full of bubbles and her naked on his lap. Wow! That was fun to write. For Khyff and Mehfawni in For Women Only, it was the popsicle scene. Never look at tube shaped popsicles the same way again! Luc Saint-Cyr's first seduction of Wulf in Wulf, Tales of the Chosen has got to be really hot. Luc tells Wulf exactly what he's going to do to him, all while stripping him and feasting his eyes on the lush body of his lover. And Alitus, Tales of the Chosen - wow there are so many scenes it's hard to pick one, but perhaps it's when Alitus wakes after a night of sex and finds he's been tied to the bed...

Q: To date which of your books was the hardest to write and why?

Lol - that would be the one I'm working on now, too. Each one is a killer to write. Well, except Wulf. Wulf flowed like melted butter and I finished it inside of two months. Alitus took three. I've been working on Jawk for about six months and it's not even half-way finished.

Q: Does your family and friends know you are a writer? If so what was their reaction?

They all know and have been supportive. There are a few who are a little shocked that I write erotica, and especially that it's gay erotica in the case of Wulf. But despite that, they support whatever I want to do.

Q: What do you hope readers get from your books?

That we don't always know what that other person is going through. For Women Only showed us this strong man who had a front of ice despite his physical beauty. Inside, he was in torment. We don't know how others around us are really feeling. We tend to go by the outside appearance. Sometimes, the harshest exteriors are to hide a broken and tender inside.

Q: The editing process is an important aspect of an authors’ life. How do you define the editing process for any of your books? Do you have a routine you follow when in editing mode?

I try not to let myself get sidetracked by other things, so I shut my workroom door and even lock it sometimes. Usually that's to remind me to stay in rather than to keep others out. I put on music that I enjoy and just get to it. Always have water nearby, and a few treats. I like Diet Coke and will have a few Dove Promises (Sugar-free Dark Chocolate). I listen to iTunes, so I'll make a specific playlist for the scene or character and then set the program to play in a loop until I'm finished. When I start hearing the lyrics instead of writing, then I either change the music or turn it off. Generally, it's background noise that I need more than the specific lyrics. One of my favorite groups is Metallica, and I can put on their stuff (I have eveything they've done) and just write write write.

Q: What is on tap for the rest of 2007?

Two anthologies planned, finish two more books in the Tales of the Chosen series, renovate my website completely. Novel Vision Web Design is overhauling Imperinet for me, making it like a real network. It's the mockup of my characters' internet from the books, and when finished, it will have its own domain, imperinet.net and a page for every company the characters mention, walk into, or associate with. If Luc Saint-Cyr takes Wulf out to dinner at the Jade House, you can go to their website and read the menu. If there is a Ruckball game at Gabriel Stadium, you can logon and check out the player stats. There will even be pages for the two major teams, the Kelthian Killers and the Tarthian Fists.


Q: Where can readers find you on the World Wide Web?

I have several homes on the web. My regular group is growing fast, so I'm helping it along by having a grow-it contest. There are some wicked gifts that'll be given away at various membership levels, such as custom organic soap gift baskets, designer cards and custom stamps, gardening sets, and even bed-sized throws crocheted by hand.
