Icy Control - out now!


I’ve always wanted to be able to draw. I’m just not artistic like that though, sadly. Words are my medium. But that didn’t stop me trying for years throughout school. I remember my Year 7 Art teacher prudently labelling my attempts as “enthusiastic” in one report card. Then my Year 8 Art teacher just as kindly – but a bit more stronger worded – said something along to the effect of “always cheerful and courageous in her trying but shows no innate talent”.


So I took great delight in writing Sally, my heroine in IcyControl .  While writing her, I was dreaming of all the paintings I could have created, had I any skerrick of talent. Some of Sally’s whimsy definitely is wishful thinking on my behalf. I’d love to create pictures like hers.


Rob loves Sally just how she is. Obsessive, forgetful, whimsical and cheerful. Rob had Sally have been friends for many years, but there’s always been something keeping them apart. Until now. Rob needs Sally’s help on a case and she’s really excited to be involved. There’s plenty of art, hidden codes and secrets unveiled in Icy Control. I’ve loved writing it and hope you all enjoy the new book in my Agency series.


Icy Control is out for Pre-release on May 30th and as always I enjoy hearing from readers. J

A Measured Risk - Massive Savings!


OUT NOW FOR 38p OR 58c!!! 
WHAT A STEAL!

He is her most dangerous temptation and now he is demanding her submission. Dare she take the risk? 

Book one in the Regency Risks Series 

Emotionally scarred in the horrific accident that took her husband's life, Lady Cranfield is imprisoned by her lingering terror of horses and carriages. She longed to be closer to the fascinating Earl of Ruel. She sensed intuitively that he could teach her how to overcome the terrors that held her in bondage.

And now she's willing to risk almost anything-her reputation, even her virtue-to find out. But what he proposes startles her.

When the shy, studious and socially awkward young widow approached him, Ruel instantly sensed she would be the sweetest, most submissive experience of a lifetime-if only he can gain her total and complete trust. He makes her a non-negotiable offer. His help in return for her submission and obedience.

But Lady Cranfield grew up neglected by her ducal parents, raised by servants and then later ignored by her handsome, charming husband. She's learnt to protect her heart at all costs and she trusts no one but herself.

How can the jaded Earl of Ruel break through her self-protective defences and show her how to love when he has spent his lifetime avoiding that tender trap?

Excerpt from A Measured Risk


"Why did you run away?" His deep voice settled in her belly, rich and warm, like crème brûlée on a cold winter's night.

"Because I wanted you to follow." She tried to sound sophisticated and seductive, but her voice choked off on the last word.

Ruel placed his hand on the shelf above her head and blocked her path to the door. His tall, solidly muscled body leaned over her, surrounding her with the sumptuous, sinful scents of tobacco, Scotch whisky and something masculine and undeniably dangerous. A slow, sensual smile stretched his hard mouth.

He appeared different. Softer. More approachable.

At the change, her insides seemed to flip over.

"Well, sweeting, getting us off alone was a very inspired idea." He touched one of her fallen ringlets. "I am bored to distraction with endless hunting and fencing."

As he slowly wrapped the curl around two fingers, he brushed her collarbone. Fiery sparks tingled down her spine, so intense that she shivered...

Unearthed Treasure - Released!

Oh I can't tell you how wonderful it is seeing Unearthed Treasure released over at Total E-Bound!

 
 
It must have been three or four Agency books ago where the character of Chelsea first strutted her way into my brain. A brunette vixen, sensual, sultry and utterly ready to play I knew the moment I "met" her she'd be awesome. A real lady to watch out for. David was hiding a little more in the shadows - silently watching over her, following her every move in a shady way I didn't at first even know whether he was a good guy or a bad one. (Or both - as some of the most delicious heroes can be....)
 
My agonising problem as a writer though soon became clear to me.
 
Neither Chelsea nor David really "fit" anywhere in the current plotlines I was happily ensconced in. Oh the DRAMA! Here were these two awesome characters - people I'd already fallen in love with - and I could not fit them into anything I had going. They weren't especially stubborn or difficult characters, but they certainly knew their own mind and persona's. So when they finally came out properly onto my stage in Intimate Knowledge I was overjoyed. That book lead fully into their own wonderful story and here we are today!
 
This book has a very special place inside my heart, and I really hope you all come to enjoy it as much as I have. Please do feel free to email me at: elapthorne999@hotmail.com or check out all my other releases on my website - http://elapthorne.mmebj.com/index.html

Spanking teaser from Wicked Teacher




So I felt like being a little naughty today - and decided to tease you all with the start of a spanking scene in my recent short story - Wicked Teacher. Eva and Aiden have a very hot, extremely wicked time together - and the scene where Aiden spanks the naughty Eva is one of my favourites.

Here's a quick exerpt:

* * * * *

A part of him wished he had been born in a different era. A few slim, red cane marks over the backs of these pretty legs would look delightful. Or maybe he would have used a hard wooden flogger, or smaller paddle.

Aiden grew hard just at the thought of the way Eva would moan and buck under the corporal—but highly sensual—punishment. She would wriggle and try to get away from him, her body twisting and heaving in a painful mockery of a far more enticing and sexual act.

Aiden felt his cock twitch again, both at the thoughts he entertained as well as the warm, sinuous feel of the girl spread out over his lap. Lifting his fingers, he traced a delicate pattern over her skin. He stroked the pads of his digits over her softness, but stopped just shy of her panties.

“You’re wet, my little slut,” Aiden crooned. He was delighted by the discovery of her copious cream. The aroma of her feminine musk was delicious, but it was the slick juices that coated Eva’s upper thighs that really turned him on.

The searing heat of her cunt beckoned to him, radiating so he could feel it on his fingers from the tops of her thighs. Aiden drew in a deep breath to resist the overwhelming impulse to spread her legs wide open and bury his face between her lower lips. His mouth watered. He ached to lap his tongue over the curve of her pussy and taste her cream.

Eva moaned, but did not articulate a response to his words. She wriggled beguilingly on his lap, appearing torn between seeking more pleasure and trying to escape the further pain which she must know would be coming. Aiden drew out the moment and avidly watched her body writhe. Eva finally turned her head so she could look up at him with those large eyes.

Her curls fell forward to cover her gaze. She raised a hand to pull the liberated strands of hair behind one ear before turning her head in his direction. Aiden became lost in her chocolate-brown gaze. Eva pleaded silently with him, but he couldn’t decide if she was aching to be fucked, or whether she was begging for him not to spank her too ferociously. Either way it really didn’t matter—he was going to do both.

“You’re lucky I don’t keep a flogger here, my beautiful slut,” he rumbled. “I think red marks on this beautiful, perfect skin of yours would enhance the seductiveness of your ass. For this afternoon, at least, it is not to be.”

Eva groaned and appeared on the verge of saying something, but Aiden didn’t give her the chance. With a quick flick of his wrist he flipped her skirt over her butt to gather around her waist. As expected he found her ass primly covered by a pair of white cotton panties.

Another quick motion, with both hands this time, and he’d hooked his fingers into the waistband of her underwear. Aiden dragged Eva’s panties down over her cheeks and left them bunched around her thighs. He watched as she squirmed, her luscious, naked ass undulating in the cool air.

“Oh!” she cried out.

Aiden smirked. With her head still turned towards him, he knew Eva couldn’t help but notice his joy at her sexy writhing.

With a sharp movement he brought his open palm down onto her round cheeks, and a loud slap filled the air. As he lifted his hand he noticed with deep satisfaction the red mark his palm had left on her pale skin. Pleasure welled within him.

Special Guest - Wendi Zwaduk



Vampires! Oh my!

Thanks to Lily and the gang for having me here at Outrageous. I love chillin’ with the girls. J I thought I’d talk today about my latest work, Until the Night, part of the Immortal Love Collection over at Total-E-Bound.

What is the Immortal Love Collection? A group of four stories with paranormal slants and lots of hot sex. In the case of Until the Night, there’s my first foursome. Grin. Talk about a lot of outrageous. I knew when I sat down to write Gypsy’s story, it would be complicated. Gypsy first showed up in My Immortal and she had a ton of issues. Plus, there were three hot guys sort of vying for her attention. But MI wasn’t about her. She ended up on the back burner in that story, but that was fine.

I’m glad they all talked. Allan and Todd were a twosome, but Gypsy was good at turning heads. Then there was Kendall, the faithful friend who happened to look like Bradley Cooper. Who could turn that down? Apparently not Gypsy.  I had the tools to start, but there were a few issues.

Like what?  Each time I sat down to write her story, things didn’t gel. Nope. She didn’t want to talk and the guys didn’t want to cooperate. I must have had about five starts for her story. None of them worked. Then I saw the call for the Immortal Love Collection. That sparked me. It did! And it got them talking, too. Turns out, Gypsy didn’t have one mate. Not two, but three. Yes, three. How to work that all out? Yeah, a lot of choreography. I won’t tell how it works, you’ll have to read UTN to find out, but it’s white hot and a lot of fun.

I hope you enjoy my foray into the paranormal world of MMFM. I had a ball writing it and the characters loved...making all that love!

Here’s an excerpt:

“You’re paler than normal.” Kendall put both hands up. “I know. Vampires are pale. But this isn’t like you.” He curled his fingers under her chin. “What can I do?”
Her heart hammered. What could he do? Get naked and take her on the couch, then offer his neck, that’s what he could do. Help her slake her need for sustenance and sex then confess he liked her for more than a friend.
Like that would happen. He had a girlfriend, last time she’d checked.
“Just tired.”
“I see that. When did you sleep last?”
“I haven’t.”
“Or fed, either.”
“It’s been a while.”
“Then I’ve got just what you need—a hot and hunky male to share your bed.” His eyebrows bobbed. “Like someone tall, blond and handsome who has lots of blood he’s willing to part with in the name of rescue?”
She laughed despite her tears. “Don’t tell me you’re applying. That’s one of the most horrible come-on lines I’ve heard.”
Kendall cupped her jaw in both hands. Hunger shone amongst the green and blue flecks in his eyes. He worked the muscle in his jaw and the light caught the subtle colour changes of brown and gold in the scruff on his cheeks. She gulped to catch the breath she didn’t need. No heartbeat anymore meant that oxygen didn’t help her body like it had when she’d been alive.
God, she wanted to be amongst the living and for things to be normal again.
“Would you rather I be blunt?” He kissed the tip of her nose. “I want you. I don’t care if you’re a vampire or if you have those two guys who hang out over here. You infiltrate my thoughts and make me think about you when you’re not in the same room.”
“Me?”


How about the blurb and where to buy? Here you go!

Having a mate can be a pain. 
Having three…now that’s unheard of…

Gypsy volunteered to become a vampire, but she had no idea just what she’d agreed to do. As a human, she’d had her pick of willing males to warm her bed. As a creature of the night, she’s striking out. Until she meets Kendall. He knows what she is and doesn’t care. He’s loved her since he met her, but he had no idea just how complicated her life truly was. Her protectors refuse to leave her side. But what if he wants them on his side, too?

Allan and Todd are mates, plain and simple. Gypsy is in their charge. Period. Until they start to see her not as a problem, but a sexy solution complete with an adorable human thrown in for fun. Can they come together as a foursome or will they destroy everything they’ve built in the name of passion?

Reader Advisory: This book contains scenes of mm sex, anal play, ménages of the mmf, mfm, and mmfm persuasions, as well as lots of biting and spanking. They’re having one hell of a party.

Available at:

Intimate Knowledge - Pre-Release!!

So I’m sure I can’t be the only person who every now and then plans a lovely, restful weekend. Usually on these occasions I’m overwhelmed with visions of relaxing in a bubble bath, or sleeping in until I wake naturally (and not to the dreaded tone of my alarm clock), or even just having the luxury of deciding whether to read outside in the sun, spread out on the couch or curled up in bed.
 
Frequently, however, it doesn’t come to pass. Either work intrudes, or friends call to catch up, or perhaps I’m reminded a day or two before the weekend of previous commitments. Sometimes I even start out on my desired break and get interrupted mid-relaxing.
A vacation out in the Forest of Dean has been on my to do list for a number of years.
 
 
 
With picturesque scenes like this, who can blame me, right? Peace, tranquillity, a real get-back-to-nature place where nothing could possibly go wrong or stress me out. Sadly for my heroine Jennifer Mabbot, her week camping was interrupted. Worse is, when she comes home the mystery she’d stumbled upon out in the boondocks followed, trailing mayhem and danger behind her.
 
Luckily, one of her oldest friends, Saul Haslen, works with the Agency and is more than willing to put himself squarely between her and danger. He’s even willing to finally risk his heart for her…and that’s only the start of their adventures together.
Intimate Knowledge is available right now for pre-release from TEB! I love hearing back from readers and always welcome emails at: elapthorne999@hotmail.com 
 
 
 
 
Intimate Knowledge is the 5th book of my Agency series, and you can find the others following the links. In order: Flirting With Danger, Courting Passion, Passionate Immunity, Passionate Vengeance.
 
Enjoy, folks!

Vengeance on my Mind


More and more nowadays we see articles in the newspapers and read fictional books about how science is growing and changing, technology advancing faster than ever before. I’m always intrigued by this – partly from curiosity but also partly to try and keep abreast of what’s happening. Genetically modified foods, engineered (and in vitro selected) babies, and most commonly of all – the changing of people genetically once grown, usually through viruses. Tons of books are out there about the outcomes of scientists who try to make humans faster/stronger/more long lived/immune resistant and so forth.




In that sense Passionate Vengeance isn't too dissimilar - it's plot revolves around a man determined to (in his own twisted way) make humans stronger, better. What I wanted to express in this book though, was how a woman could grow from exposure to such a thing. Abigail has been violated against her will, she’d burned her way through hell and managed to find herself carried out by her hero. She’s truly hit rock bottom – and is clawing her way back, inch by inch. I was deeply intrigued by how she’d react to this, how and where she’d find her strength, and once she gets a taste for vengeance – how far will it carry her?

Unlike many heroines today Abby is not a kick ass fighting machine. She doesn’t wield blades, shoot the bad guys and take no prisoners. Before all this happened she was a normal, average young lady. Tempting as it was to teach her to fight and shoot and kick butt – it wasn’t her and wasn’t realistic to her character. She finds her strength in other areas, in cool logic, in helping the fight to bring down the enemy and in the simple act of not giving in. She doesn’t go back home and crawl into bed, closing her eyes and pretending none of this occurs – although she’s sorely tempted to. I wanted to show how by simply being an active part of the fight, in doing the right thing, there’s a strength and power in that all its own.
 
 

Passionate Immunity is the book preceding this. Although it’s not critical to read it – there are characters and circumstances introduced in it that lead into Passionate Vengeance. I hope you all thoroughly enjoy these two tales – and would love to hear any thoughts/comments you have. Feel free to email me, or visit my website for more books I’ve written.

Lusty London Adventures


When I decided to write a new series, I really wanted to set it in London. The Agency grew from that – part traditional stuffy Gentleman’s club, part modern gathering point for adventurous, slightly mis-fitting patriots. Maybe it’s the Aussie in me – but there’s something just so fantastic about the UK. Both modern and traditional, fast paced and relaxed out in the country it’s the perfect blend of both worlds. As a writer you can have it all. Car chases and everything on the edge of your fingertips in the city, or as much space, lush green land and secret hiding places out in the country, and all relatively speaking close to each other. One must remember, of course, that people often will drive down here for 1 or 2 hours each way just to commute to work. We measure “distance” on a bit of a larger scale, I’ve discovered.
 
 
I’ve been really lucky over at TEB. The Agency has found a very loving home, and I’ve got a few releases coming out over the next few months. Passionate Immunity and its following title – Passionate Vengeance can both be currently purchased through the TEB website.  I hope you all enjoy my character's lusty adventures in and around London as much as I've enjoyed writing them!

Mandy's He-Man by Donna Gallagher






Can this rugged mountain of a man really protect her, teach her to trust and love again? Or will the choices she’s made in the past destroy her future?

Blurb

Having managed to break free from an abusive relationship with a cruel and dominating ex-boyfriend, Australian artist Mandy Magenta—a.k.a. Amanda Smith—should be terrified when she first meets the enormous bulk that is Jonathon ‘JT’ Thomson. He is fierce. Not only is JT the biggest, most muscular man Mandy has ever set eyes on, but he makes a living playing the brutal sport of Rugby League.

So why, then, does Mandy’s body go into lust overdrive at the mere sight of him? She doesn’t feel a hint of alarm as the colours that exist in her mind—created and inspired by her own emotions and her artistic talents—explode with vibrant and passionate intensity. Could JT be the man to remind her that she is still a sensual, amorous woman, a woman deserving of love and tenderness—and can he protect her from the threats her ex has promised to deliver on?

Excerpt


As they lay in each other’s arms, JT whispered to Mandy, “Happy birthday, Mags. Hope you’ve had a day to remember.” 
“Oh, He-Man, the best ever. But it’s still my birthday and I want another present. It amazes me how something so hard can feel so soft to touch…” Mandy gave a sultry purr as she wrapped her palm around JT’s erection. “My favourite part is this raised bit, just here,” Mandy teased as her finger rimmed the mushroom-shaped head of JT’s penis, stopping at the slight join of flesh at the top. JT could only moan and growl in response as she wrapped her soft hand around his steel-hard cock.
Mandy lowered her head and blew gently on the enormous length that stood erect before her, then ran the tip of her tongue slowly over the same path that her finger had taken before it, loving the way JT jerked in response. She took him into her mouth slowly, pressing her lips together tightly to create just enough friction as she sucked his warm cock all the way into her mouth, until the head bumped the back of her throat.
Mandy tried to relax her throat even more, so she could take all of him, moving her mouth up and down. She grazed her teeth gently along the rigid shaft as she pumped her hand in a complementary rhythm. 
She was enjoying herself, totally absorbed in her endeavours. She could feel the moisture building between her thighs and squeezed them together to try to ease the ache. Now she was so in tune with JT’s body, Mandy knew he was getting close. When he tried to pull her mouth away from his almost exploding cock, she shook her head and sucked harder.
“Woman, I’m coming in your mouth if you don’t let go. I can’t hold on any longer,” JT groaned. 






About the author


Sydney-born Donna Gallagher decided at an early age that life needed be tackled head on.
Leaving home at 15 she supported herself through her teen years. 
In her twenties she married a professional sportsman, her love of sport -- especially rugby league -- probably overriding her good sense. 

The seven-year marriage was an adventure. There were the emotional ups and downs of having a husband with a public profile in a sometimes glamorous but always high-pressure field. There were always interesting characters to meet and observe and even the opportunity to live for a time in the UK.
Eventually Donna returned home a single woman, but she never lost her passion for watching sport, as well as the people in and around it.

Now happily re-married and with three sons Donna loves coffee mornings with her female friends, sorting through problems from the personal to the international. But she's on even footing with the keenest man when it comes to watching and talking rugby league.

Donna considers herself something of a black sheep in a family of high achievers. Her brother has a doctorate in mathematics and her sister is a well-known sports journalist.

An avid reader, especially of romance, Donna finally found she couldn't stop the characters residing in her imagination from spilling onto paper. Naturally rugby league is the backdrop to her League of Love Series, published through UK publisher Total-E-Bound, spicy tales of hunky heroes and spunky heroines overcoming adversity to eventually find true love.

Jambrea Jo Jones in USA Today!


The ink is still wet on the pages of USA Today, and author Jambrea Jo Jones graces one of those very pages. It’s got to be one of the highlights of an author’s life to make it into such a high-profile place, and, from what I’ve seen from snooping into Jambrea’s career and, well, downright stalking her along her journey, she’s worked diligently and consistently to be where she is today. Without further ado, let’s ask her how she feels, shall we, on the day she made it into USA Today. I have a feeling she may be super giddy…

Hi, Jambrea! Sit on my couch and tell me, how are you feeling right now?

I'm super excited!!! Had to call my mom.

LOL! I bet you did! What are your goals for 2013?

PWOAR!
For 2013 I just want to write more. I want to finish my first full-length gay romance. Most of them are not print length on their own. I also want to finish my Marine series—this is a straight romance, military suspense, and I want to write my first erotic horror. Um...my list is pretty long. lol

Oh, this pleases us greatly. We have much dancing going on here. High-heeled shoes, the lot. Do you have any new series planned for us greedy readers, who like to gobble up your words like a fresh and vibrant dessert, the flavours of which burst on our tongues and make us close our eyes in sublime delight?

Let's have some of THAT!
I have a new series I want to do that is urban-post apocalyptic. It involves angels too! lol I've had that one on the sidelines for awhile.

Hmmm, because we stalk follow you on Facebook, we’ve been waiting for this series. Which book of yours is your favourite from last year? We’re rather partial to Magnus ourselves, sexy, glorious hunk of manliness that he is.

The end of a series...sigh!
I do love Magnus and Ben (those are both part of my Marine romances). But my favorite...that's hard. It might be Absolution, just because it was the last book in my Seeds of Dawn series. I wrapped up the series that started my writing.

That must have been a very nice feeling. What advice would you give to aspiring authors who also want that ultra-crazy feeling of being in USA Today or, indeed, any other tabloid?

I guess the only advice I can give is to keep writing, build up that backlist. It's all about the backlist. Learned that from author Bianca D'Arc.

Will you be celebrating tonight?

I will celebrate by finishing up a story that I've been working on that I was having trouble with. lol Maybe go crazy and order a pizza. Lol

That’s the kind of celebrating we like here at Outrageous Girls, except we rather dig copious amounts of wine that leave us either pleasantly mellow or raging drunk. We wish you every success in your career and greatly look forward to your angel series. Thanks for agreeing to this interview!
