Thanks for having me today!

I have a Yankee Candle and a $10 Amazon card to give away in celebration of IF I WERE YOU. I have some big exciting news about this series being announced next week but I can’t tell yet!

I thought I’d share a sexy excerpt and to enter the contest just fill out the rafflecopter and comment!

********** EXCERPT *********  

The bellman is in the door with our bags and I haven’t moved. I feel his eyes on me and I know I must look a disheveled mess. Somehow, I focus on the room, bringing the amazing detail into focus. Vaulted ceiling encase me and to my right is a living area and full kitchen. A California King-size bed is to my left, a stucco fireplace in the corner in front of it, and beyond that a private patio overlooking the mountains.

The hotel door shuts and Chris locks it. My heart is thundering in my chest. I can’t look at him. I don’t think he wants me to look at him. I don’t know why. It’s just a feeling.

He rolls my suitcase to the center of the room and unzips it, pulling out a pair of cream-colored strappy high heels he drops on the floor, and a pale yellow chiffon dress he lays on top of the case when he closes it. “Put them on.”

I force my eyes to his. “You want me--”

“Yes.” I wet my dry lips. Okay. He wants me to dress up. Sounds like a good excuse to escape and regroup and boy, does regrouping sound appealing. I walk to grab the dress, intending to head to the bathroom, wherever it is.

“Right here,” Chris says. “Where I can see you.”

I gape and try to clarify again. “You want me--”

“Yes. I want.”

He sits down on the bed and I realize he intends to watch me undress and dress again. This is about control, about him demonstrating what he has and I do not. He needs it. He needs it on some deep level, and I am not going to deny him. For reasons I’ve yet to understand, giving Chris control doesn’t bother me, but I know in my heart, it keeps me at a distance. This is his wall, his barrier, his great divide; I am beginning to wonder if I can ever conquer his barriers. Right now though, I’m happy to let him conquer.

I swallow hard, my throat like sandpaper, my body wet and wanting. I am aroused by this and everything Chris does. I reach for the dress.

A new big contest starts today! Lots of fun prizes!

Giveaway of Hot Vampire Kiss and Hot Vampire Seduction by Lisa Renee Jones Ebooks

The Lovely Lisa Renee Jones will be stopping by for a interview and giveaway tomorrow eveing! So please dont forget to stop by and check it out. Leading up to that and to follow through with the last post of spreading the word...were going to do a fun giveaway of Hot Vampire Kiss and Hot Vampire Seduction  to one lucky winner. As these are ebooks it will be open to all who love them some HOT VAMPIRES.....

In blood they will find destiny and the eternal bond of passion…

The Wardens series begins with a trilogy of three brothers—Evan, Aiden and Taylor Brooks are brothers (in order by human age: 34, 32, 28), who were early settlers of the town of New Braunfels, Texas, in the 1500s. When the town was haunted by a series of brutal animal attacks that left a half-dozen townsmen murdered, the Brooks brothers took things into their own hands. Armed and ready for action, they set out into the wilderness, determined to find this animal and kill it. What they found was a female vampire who decided the brothers were scrumptious morsels, worth keeping around for a lifetime. She attacked the brothers and turned them to vampires.

No sooner did she turn them, though, than another vampire appeared and killed her. This vampire declared himself a “Warden” of the Vampire Council. Wardens uphold the rules of the Vampire race, and report to the Council. Killing humans is punishable by death, and their ‘Maker’ had broken that rule. The brothers were then taken to the Council, where they were taught how to survive without killing, how to mingle with humans as if one of them, when to move on from a location so that they would not be suspected as vampires, and most importantly, who their enemies were and how to defeat them.

In the end the brothers were granted a financial dowry that had belonged to their Maker and given the choice of freedom, under Council rule, or an alternative—to become Wardens.

Now, the brothers travel together as Wardens, tracking outlaw vampires, killing them, and protecting innocent humans. It is their eternal duty.

 The underground vampire population of Austin, Texas has taken to hosting orgies with human women who've been forced to indulge in a new aphrodisiac. The drug, Blood Red, is a mixture of a rare type of werewolf blood and that of a vampire. Blood Red creates an insatiable desire for sex in the user to the point of pain in the absence of pleasure. Sometimes that pain leads to death.

Vampire Warden, Aiden Brooks, has spent more than a hundred years enforcing the laws of his race, and life has taught him that anyone that he allows into his world ends up dead. Despite knowing this all too well, having painfully loved and lost in his past, when his search for the creator of Blood Red places coroner Kelly Riggs directly in both his path, and that of a dangerous clan of vampires, his desire for her goes well beyond offering her protection. He's drawn to her bravery, seduced by her feisty spirit and beauty, but he is determined to resist her, fearing he will put her in harms way.

But Kelly is already on the radar of the enemy, and when she gets too close to the evil vampire clan's secrets, she is given Blood Red. Now Aiden's hunger for her might be the only thing that can keep her alive but who will save her from him?

Spook-a-licious: Where Boo-ks Devour You: Blog Hop Tour (Oct. 17-24)

 I LOVE HALLOWEEN.....i love so many things about it! Now lets see where do i start....I love the carving of pumpkins:  

Kids Trick or Treating at my door:

Then you have the Dressing up to head out to a Halloween Party:

This year we are changing it up and taking a Haunted Tour of the U.S.S Hornet in Alameda, CA:

Often called the most haunted ship in history, the USS Hornet rests deceptively still in its berth at the decommissioned Alameda Naval Base. Her impressive record did not come without cost. An aircraft carrier, in times of war or peace, is a dangerous place. Sailors have walked into aircraft's spinning props, been sucked into their air intakes, and blown off deck by their exhaust. Dropped ordnance has exploded, burning and maiming sailors. Snapping flight arrest cables are known to have decapitated at least three men on the USS Hornet. All told, in her 27 years of active service, more than 300 people lost their lives aboard ship. The majority claimed during combat, others from these horrendous shipboard accidents, still others from suicide. The USS Hornet has the dubious honor for having the highest suicide rate in the Navy. 

It is, perhaps, the Hornet's tragedy soaked history that has caused it to become America's most haunted ship. Crew and visitor alike have reported an amazing number of strange incidents, sightings, and sounds. Doors opening and closing by themselves, tools that vanish only to reappear after a long search, objects that move across floors or fall off shelves without reason, spectral sailors that move through the ship as if carrying out orders from another age, toilets that flush themselves, eerie presences felt, and feelings of being grabbed or pushed when no one is around.

 Should be Spooky Fun if you ask me!

 All you have to do is leave a comment saying what you love best about Halloween.You must leave a valid Email address to be entered. I would also like to ask you to follow the blog but i wont make it a requirement. And lets say thanks to Felicity Heaton and Deborah Court for donating.

Review for Pleasure With Purpose

Author : Lisa Renee Jones

Description: Heather and Brad have been close family friends for ten years but both have secretly pined for each other, secretly fantasized about one sultry hot night together. So when fate delivers them a chance at that night, will they take it and risk a lifetime of friendship being destroyed? Or will they pretend they can really wake up tomorrow and pretend it never happened?

Summary: "You've never had an orgasm!" After slipping that secret to her best friend who was like family, Heather was embarrassed to say the least. Especially since the guy she has been infatuated with wasn't too far away, though luckily he couldn't hear. Then comes the idea of finding her inner confidence and letting her inner sexiness out in time for a man-hunt at an upcoming wedding. Brad, the guy in question of the infatuated since her teen years, and brother of her best friend, decides he must take the protective route. Then he stumbles upon Heather, half naked and trying to connect with her inner sexy side. From there they cant resist the pull of attraction and give into a taste of their desire. That is, till Brad claims it was a mistake, making Heather pull away. Scared he is gonna lose her, he finds a way to get her alone after getting word of the big man-hunt and passion ignites and soars.

My Thoughts: Lisa Renee Jones had me laughing in the very beginning and sympathizing with her Heather. I was on a roller-coaster ride I didn't want to get off . For a short story I couldn't put it down and it left me wanting more. This is definitely a great short story.
