Lena's Welcome

They say it's my birthday. Happy Birthday to me. Woo Hoo. I'm hitting the big 30 this month and I couldn't be happier. I've never been one of those people who whined and complained about getting older. The way I look at if I've been blessed to see another year, what do I really have to complain about?

This month is going to be pretty wonderful I think. Not only is the hubby taking me and my little Diva to Disneyland for my birthday, I'm also having my baby shower this month. 6 weeks and counting people. I'm so excited. I can't wait until I'll be able to see my vagina again. I've missed her. LOL

This month Samhain will be releasing the first book in the Jokers Wild series, Jokers Wild: Call Me. It has been reedited and expanded for your reading pleasure. I truly hope that everyone enjoys it.

Last but not least, Halloween is coming. I love Halloween. This year, my little Diva is going as Ariel. She's obsessed with The Little Mermaid. So much so, that I ended up going to Ebay to find her the perfect costume. Not just any old one would do. It had to be the one with the purple boobies as she said. What a pain in my butt, but I love her to pieces.

I hope everyone has a fun and safe Halloween.

Jokers Wild: Call Me
Available on October 31, 2006 from www.samhainpublishing.com
Genre(s): Contemporary

(this book has been expanded and raked over the coals. It's even been given a hot new cover)

When Kayla Martin tries to revolutionize the sex toy industry she calls on the one person she's grown to count on more than anyone else, her best friend and downstairs neighbor, Dylan Thompson.

When Kayla approaches him about being a test subject for her newest invention, an anal toy, Dylan is intrigued and aroused. That is until he finds out that The Walnut Wand is an anal toy for men. Kayla's sure that a prostate stimulator will be a hit, all she needs is a willing participant. Far from willing, Dylan flat out refuses, but that's not enough to deter Kayla.

After their monthly poker game, Dylan and Kayla decide to make a risky bet. Kayla wants a test subject and Dylan wants the one thing's he's being craving for years. They'll risk it all on one hand, but anything can happen when jokers are wild.

Friends With Benefits
The highly anticipated sequel to Maverick's BlackCat will be available November 8, 2006 from Ellora's Cave.
Genre(s): Contemporary/IR

For Bailey Edwards, deciding on a no-strings-attached affair was the easy part. Getting her male best friend to agree was a different matter.

Tired of men who want her only for her looks, Bailey has given up on romantic relationships that so far have led nowhere. She realizes an affair with Sebastian could be the perfect solution---hot explosive sex with no commitment. What more could a girl ask for?

Sebastian Emerzian isn't sure what to think when his female best friend propositions him. He's already resigned himself to a friend's-only relationship with Bailey despite his long-held desires for more. However Sebastian is more than willing to turn up the heat, as long as the headstrong beauty understands he'll be defining the terms of their new relationship.

While Bailey may be looking for a friend with benefits type of relationship, she'll learn the hard way that if she wants to play, she'll have to do things his way.
And Sebastian doesn't play nice for anyone.

WIP

I finally finished the revision of Call Me and now it's in the hand of my editor. I added over 15 thousands words to it, and I really think it turned much better than the first edition. The rewrites didn't go as smoothly as I would have liked, because I've officially become the worlds biggest slacker, but I think Three Nights will be a lot easier.

Passion

Passion
By Lisa Valdez
ISBN: 0425203972

A woman called Passion. A man who would make her true to her name.

In her second year of mourning, lovely young widow Passion Elizabeth Dare never dreamed she would be with a man again--and certainly not a complete stranger. But amidst the crowds of London's Crystal Palace, Passion finds herself discreetly, yet insistently, pursued by a sensual gentleman who awakens her long-suppressed desires. After a loveless marriage of restrained propriety, Passion abandons herself to true bliss for the first time.

Intoxicated by his encounter with the beautiful stranger, Mark Randolph Hawkmore, Earl of Langley, cannot wait to see her again. As a series of rapturous rendezvous follows, he and his mystery lover find something rare and wonderful blossoming between them. But a blackmail scheme against the Earl threatens to destroy everything. As a scandal brews, each will have to choose between duty and desire...their love for their families--and their love for each other.

This book is HOT HOT HOT. I haven't met a single person who hasn't loved this book. And if you're anything like me you're waiting on pins and needles for the sequel, Patience, which should be out at the end of the year.

Websitepick

This month website pick is Devilish Dot's toy site. I hosted a Pleasure Party last month and Dot was gracious enough to come all the way to bumfuck Egypt where I live to show us the wonderful things she has on her site. We all had a blast.

Excerpt

Dylan closed his hand over hers, stopping Kayla from her depraved torture. He wasn't quite sure which was worse, her pumping hand or her dirty words. "You shouldn't tease a man about anal sex."

"Who's teasing?" Kayla leaned over and nipped at his ear. "I've been a very good girl."

"How good?"

"Very."

That's exactly what he wanted to hear. Anal sex to him was never a question of if they were going to do, only when. Since the day he and Kayla used the plug, Dylan had instructed her to wear it at least two hours a day. He wanted her to be able to take his thick length when the time was right without hesitation or much pain.

In fact, it had actually become a little dominant game between the two of them. He'd call her from work and instruct her to put it in. Speaking in low tones, he would tell her how he wanted her to be positioned when she used it, and what he wanted her to do while it was in. He was officially jerking off more now than he ever had as a teenager, and yet it didn't seem to help keep his desire for her at bay.

They were fucking like the cure for cancer was buried deep inside her pussy and he was on a quest to find it. They had even implemented the anal toy into their sex play on a regular basis. Dylan had placed toys, his fingers, even his tongue into the tight recesses of her ass. The only thing left to put there now was his cock. And there was no time better than the present.

Dylan reluctantly pulled Kayla's hand from beneath his boxers and away from his throbbing cock so he could turn around and face her. Even in the dark he could see the mischievous smile lingering on her lips. She was so fucking beautiful, she took his breath away. "Are you wearing it now?"

"Yes."

Dylan looped his hand behind her knee and brought her leg up to rest on his hip as he slipped a thigh between hers. He wanted to find out for himself just how good Kayla had been. Taking his time, Dylan ran his fingers softly down her thigh, to her buttocks, not stopping until he reached the crease of her full thick ass. His fingers trickled the few inches down until he felt the base of the plug, lodged firmly where he wanted to be.

Inside her tight, beautiful ass.

Kayla definitely had an ass worthy of fucking. Who was he kidding? It was worthy of worshiping, spanking, licking, kissing. It was second only to her pussy, which to him was worth his weight in gold. Her body was pure pleasure and it never ceased to amaze Dylan how he'd managed to go so long without feeling her beneath him. Looking back now, he knew the only way he could have explained his blindness was shear madness.

"See I told you." Her words were a mere whisper now. Gone was the hint of laughter that had echoed in her voice early. In its place was need.

"Yes you did." When he brushed his fingers against the thick device, Kayla shivered. "How badly do you want me to fuck your sweet ass?"

Kayla wrapped her arm around his waist, digging her nails into his side. "About as badly as you want too."

"I don't think that's possible." Dylan grasped the base of the plug and slowly slid it partially out of the tight recess of her ass, before plunging it back in with a twist of his wrist. Kayla's cried out in pleasure as she dug her nails even deeper into him. "Dylan..."

"Yes."

"Don't tease me. Fuck me."

"I wouldn't think of teasing you."
