Want the hot skinny on LIGHTNING, my erotic paranormal 1Night Stand story?
BLURB:
In
mystic Sleepy Hollow, succubus Lily Night put her prom date, Campbell Jones,
into a coma after a night of wild, unbridled sex. She has steered clear of
mortals ever since, afraid of damaging them or worse, not to mention the
inconvenience of knocking out the power every time they have
sex.
Successful
architect Campbell Jones has lived with strange powers and a sexy secret since
that prom night. He’s buried himself in work to forget the woman who’d dumped
him at the ER then vanished from his life without a
trace.
Neither
Lily nor Campbell have forgotten that night or the love they’d shared. Will a
1Night Stand help them bury their past?
EXCERPT:
“A little
higher and more to the left.”
Lily Night
narrowed her eyes as the building maintenance man shifted her framed diploma on
the freshly-painted wall opposite her desk. She tried not to ogle the firm ass
encased in a pair of tight jeans or the way the man’s shoulder muscles rippled
beneath his T-shirt.
Maybe if I pop an Altoid, I’ll
have an excuse to wipe away the drool.
She
refrained from jumping the handsome worker dude’s bones. The last time she’d
dallied with a human, the encounter had not gone well. Vivid images of that long
ago prom night bombarded her. Campbell Jones had been a young, strapping,
hunk-and-a-half football player and they’d started their date full of hope and
expectation and lust. When he’d adjusted the fragrant gardenia corsage on
her wrist, she’d inhaled his crisp, citrus scent and thought she might swoon at
the sight of him in his tux. The black material stretched across broad shoulders
that mirrored the promise of the bruising man he’d be in his prime. But she’d
all but sucked him dry as flashes of lightning crackled over their heads. By the
time dawn painted the sky, she’d turned him into a mere shadow of his former
self. Literally.
And briefly
knocked out cell phone service in the lower Hudson Valley , as well.
She’d sworn
off humans ever since. Instead, she pulled all-nighter after all-nighter to
evade the dreams in which men called to her—and to avoid the university dating
scene that inevitably led to frequent and addicting sex.
Mortals. Bleh.
And here are the deets for THUNDER, my second 1Night Stand story!
BLURB:
Lonely young witch, Veronica
Hardwicke, has struggled to get on with her life after the death of the elderly
husband who’d left her a fortune and a sprawling estate in mystical Sleepy
Hollow. When frightening things go bump in the night on a stormy Fourth of July,
who better to call than the sexy developer and contractor, Sean Jones, who's
been renovating her mansion for months?
Sean
may grace the tabloid pages with a different supermodel on his arm every night,
but it's Veronica who drives him nuts. Ignoring his instinct to stay away, he
answers her summons.
Veronica
paced back and forth in the grand entry foyer of the Belmont mansion, the
kitten heels of her Prada mules clacking on the marble
floors.
The rest of
the place might not be finished, but she’d insisted on having a few rooms
completed, so at least she felt like she was living in a home, rather than a
massive, never-ending construction project. Well, her contractor had insisted, even though
working around the main entrance and central hallway created more work for him
and his crew. But she was forced to admit he was right.
Her cell
phone chimed on top of the antique credenza shoved flush against one wall. She
leaped for it. Probably Geneviève, to regale her with all the fun she was having
in Paris . Or
Sean, to advise her he couldn’t make it after all. She sighed and read the text
message on the small screen.
Congratulations, Veronica. 1Night
Stand has found your date. Have a good time.
With both
anxiety and mounting excitement, she stared at the screen and waited. No other
info. Outside in the night, thunder boomed. She jumped then laughed at
herself.
Ghosts are one thing, but
freaking out at the weather now? Cripes, you really do need this
date!
She let her
imagination run wild, then texted back for more details:
When? Where?
Who?
An
insistent pounding at the front door jarred her out of her fantasy. She swung
the door open on another explosive crack of thunder.
Sean stood
on her doorstep, his soaked T-shirt molding sculpted pecs and abs, his drenched
hair flattened over his brow. Rain poured down as he fiddled with his iPhone, a
bemused expression on his face. Behind him, jagged arrows of lightning tore the
dark sky. He glared at the screen, glanced at her in confusion, then back at the
screen.
Veronica’s
own phone pinged again. Thunder roared. She read the message in
disbelief.
