If you post a comment today, you’ll be in the running
for a free download of SADDLED!
In one week, the second of my Lone Star Lovers books, Unforgiven, will be released. So I thought maybe I’d remind you why you’re going to be eager to rush to Samhain to buy it.
It’s all about the cowboy. Independent and stubborn. Strong but tender. Smells of horse and sweat. Completely, lickably male.
The first of my Samhain westerns was Saddled. I had so much fun writing it that I quickly followed with Unbridled and Unforgiven. And you can bet I have something in the works right now to follow. So indulge yourself in some cowboy lust.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
From Just Erotic Romance, 5 stars: “…I couldn’t put this story down! It was danger, betrayal, sexy and fun all rolled together into the perfect erotic romance. The plot was brilliant, and the characters unique…The sexual scenes will make you clamp your knees together and dream of a sexy cowboy or two of your own…”
From Vixen Reviews, 5 stars: “…What starts out as an innocent effort to warm Kate up turns into some of the most erotic sex I have ever read along with some of the best dialog I have seen in a book so far this year…The chemistry and interaction between the three of them is well written and keeps you chuckling and turns you on. The characters themselves are so well written you feel for them and you want them to make their alternative relationship work….Saddled is heart-stopping and fascinating!!!!!!!…”
From Romance Junkies, 4.5 stars: “…Delilah Devlin’s storylines never fail to pull readers into the story and SADDLED is no exception…Of course the sex scenes are scorching and adventurous with the perfect blend of emotional turmoil to ensure readers keep Ms. Devlin’s name at the top of their ‘must read’ list.”
When Bobby Blackhawk and Cale Yancey see a car slide off the highway and into an icy creek, they’ve got only minutes to get the beautiful driver out alive. And only one way to save her from hypothermia: take her to their isolated cabin, get naked…and hope like hell that when she wakes up, she doesn’t scream the place down.
Katherine Duvall opens her eyes in a strange bed, and the tingles flooding her body aren’t entirely due to restored circulation. She’s snuggled between two handsome men, one a gruff, gentle giant, the other a sexy, playful Native American. Having just left her fiancé romping with another woman, she’s not quite as shocked as she might have been.
In fact, these two lonesome cowboys could be the perfect bookends to satisfy her hunger for revenge and bolster her dented self esteem. It’s not long before their raging hormones are melting the snow on the cabin roof.
To their surprise, they find something else is melting, too. Their hearts…
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Katherine Duvall awoke as sensation flooded her feet and hands—sharp prickling pinches that made her moan.
“Yeah, it’s gonna hurt. But it’s a good sign sweetheart,” a man whispered against her hair. “And there’s no frostbite. I checked.”
He’d checked? One fact penetrated her pain-filled fog. He’d done a lot more than checked. She was naked. And his bare-naked body was pressed up against her back, a penis nudging her bottom.
“Where are my clothes?” she gasped, choking on outrage and fear.
“Had to shuck ‘em. They were soaked.”
She remembered the car sliding into the water. But why wasn’t she in a hospital? “Where am I?”
“In my cabin. Couldn’t chance taking you back to Wellesley. Snow’s comin’ down too hard.”
Her fingers stung, and she pulled her hands from under the covers to peer at them in the inky darkness. “How long have I been here?”
“Maybe an hour. Was worried about you two. You both passed out.”
“Both?”
“Bobby went into the creek after you. He’s not in much better shape.”
She edged carefully away from his body, instantly missing the warmth and rolled onto her back to get her first view of her “rescuer”. What she saw didn’t do a whole lot to alleviate her fears.
The man lying beside her was enormous—a broad-shouldered shadow. Her heartbeat thudded against her chest as her alarm grew, and she wondered what else he might have done while she’d been out.
“Let me get the lamp. You sound like you’re about to freak out.”
About to?
He leaned away. A light flickered on from a bedside table, and she got her first clear glimpse of the stranger in the bed beside her. He leaned on his elbows, his expression taut as she stared back. Shaggy, brown hair, thick dark brows over deep-set eyes. His skin was deeply tanned, his chest and abdomen a study in light and shadow as muscles rippled as he breathed. The thick fur covering his chest glinted with red and gold where the light struck it.
Then she caught a glimpse of another body outlined beneath the covers on his opposite side. “Just what the hell do you think you’re doing?”
“It’s not what it looks like,” he said softly, a smile turning up the tips of his mouth. “Swear. I had to get you both warm.”
She pulled the edge of the blanket higher over her chest and scooted away from him, caught by a hard shiver.
“You’re still chilled. The electric blanket’s set low. Didn’t want to damage tissue as I heated you both up.”
A groan sounded beyond the bear-like man. “Goddamn, would you both shut up? Fuck, everything hurts.”
“Bobby, you need to wake up. We got a problem here.”
The figure huddled under the blanket stirred and rolled toward them with a moan. When he came up on an elbow, air hissed through Kate’s teeth. The man was even more attractive than the first, and she was wondering if she’d woken up on the wrong side of heaven. This one wasn’t as large but was every bit as ripped. And his wide chest was hairless, his face austere, scraped clean over high cheekbones and a jutting jaw. An Indian by his bronze skin, even without seeing the long black hair that filtered around his shoulders.
Still, they were both naked. And sharing a bed with her. And she didn’t know if she was safe or about to be molested. After all she’d felt an erection prodding her bottom.
She took a quick, silent inventory. The parts of her that weren’t busy thawing didn’t feel any different. She’d know, wouldn’t she, if he’d already taken advantage of her?
“We’re not going to hurt you, lady,” Bobby said. “We saved your life. Get back under the covers and snuggle close. You’ll warm up faster. Can’t have you getting sick, seeing as how you’ll be stuck here for a while.”
Her heart stuttered, then began to race. “What? I can’t stay here.”
“Don’t know if you noticed,” Bobby replied, “but there’s a storm outside. The roads are closed. No one’s getting in or out.”
She opened her mouth to make another protest, but she shivered again and moaned as the pain intensified in her fingertips.
“You’re gonna have to trust us,” the big guy said. “If something comes up between us, you’ll just have to ignore it. My body’s warmer than yours even though I’ve been stuck between two blocks of ice for an hour.”
Color filled her cheeks. She shivered for another few moments and then gave in to the offer of warmth. Facing away, she settled on her side and held her breath as he snuggled close again. When his arm came over her waist, she jumped but calmed as he shushed her gently.
The embarrassment and fear was a small price to pay for the heat his body generated.
“Just go to sleep,” he muttered. “This is as close as I’m gonna get.”
It was close enough. Again, his cock was upright and poking at her bottom.
“Don’t know how it’s staying hard,” he whispered. “Your ass is cold.”
A gust of laughter surprised her. “Serves you right. Should have kept your underwear on.”
“Lady, you always this grumpy?” came Bobby’s slurred whisper.
“No. I’m just not used to waking up in bed beside strangers.”
Bobby grunted and slid closer to the bigger man’s back. She knew because his hand reached right across the body between them to land on her hip. “Fuck, I’m cold.”
Cale lifted his upper leg. He was relieved the woman hadn’t starting screaming the house down, but he was embarrassed just the same that she’d noticed he was aroused. “Slide whatever you need to warm up between my legs.” He slid his ankles forward, capturing the woman’s feet between them.
She sighed and settled deeper against him. “Can’t believe I’m doing this…”
He wondered if she’d really freak if two cocks poked at her when he felt Bobby’s slip between his legs, nuzzling under his balls. His own gasp at the uncomfortable chill stirred thick, fragrant hair in front of his mouth. She smelled like strawberries. Nice.
Spooned front and back, and with his companions warming up nicely, he raised his eyes to the window beyond the bed, thinking it might be an interesting few days while they rode out the storm.
From the sound of the wind howling, shaking the glass and rustling thick drifts of snow over the roof, they might as well hunker down and stay warm inside. Cale tightened his grip on the woman’s slender waist, slowly drawing her closer, and nestled his face against her soft hair. Yeah, the next few days might get hot as hell.

How has your writing beem going? Have you been able to do a little work on SOW?
The problem I have with romance stories that deal with threesomes is that I believe that humans have an innate desire to find a life partner who loves only them. It is certainly true that there are human cultures with polygamous marriages, but from what little I can tell about them is that they are more focused on the father being able to have as many children as possible and tend to disregard the feelings of the mother.
I also believe it to be true, many people have fantasies were they are deeply and passionatly loved by more than one person, but we tend to be hurt when the person we love has feelings for another person as well.

Happy New Year! I would love to read Saddled!

I love westerns. Saddled sounds wonderful. 😀
Comment
Awesome DD and congrats on your upcoming release!!
Comment
Loved the excerpt, would like to read more!
Comment
Naked strangers – always good.
Comment
Love the excerpt. Kinda reminds me of K Douglas’ first Wolf Tales where the hero rescues the heroine from the snow and warms her up in bed. I’d love to be able to read this one. I like books on threesomes. one of my favs is Ruby Storm’s Lucy’s Double Diamonds. Didn’t care much for there deception at first but it was hot and the end was great. When I first started reading them I was leary of M/M action but now just appreciate how it adds to the story.
Comment
More cowboys – Yipee!! Anxiously awaiting your newest release.
Comment
I love this story and the expert is GOOD 🙂 Do hope you managed to do some writing today. Stay great 🙂

I would love to read Saddled!
Comment
Oooh… hubba hubba! Can’t wait for more cowboys! Thanks for the chance to get caught up 🙂
Comment
Wesley, I haven’t turned to SOW yet, but it’s coming soon. As the threesomes, it’s not for everyone. I know!
Judie and Crystal! Good luck. I hope one of you gets your wish. 😆
Dani! Thank you, ma’am.
Comment
Eva! There is another way…
Lisa! That was my thought too when I wrote it.
Nichole! The first time I wrote m/m action, I was wary too. But I got over it really quick because it was so dang much fun.
Comment
Sonya! It will be here in just a week. Then I can’t wait to see what y’all think. I had the most fun ever writing this one. The hero was sooooo bad and sooooo set on punishing the heroine that when he fell, he fell like ton of bricks.
Rasha! I spent the morning getting my nails done. But I have managed to get back into the free read I’m working on for Samhain’s Valentine’s Day series. I like it when I can write something and it doesn’t take forever for readers to see it. 😀
Estella! I hope you get your chance!
Comment
Fedora! I always aim to please.
Comment
Congrats on the upcoming release of “Unforgiven,” Delilah.
Comment
I loved the excerpt for Saddled. Now I want to read the rest of it to find out what happens.
Comment
With yet another big winter storm coming our way I’d definitely like my very own Bobby and Cale to keep me warm. Can you send them here soon?
Thanks for the excerpt and looking forward to the new release!
Comment
Great excerpt. As always you do a great job of making the characters connect on page.
Comment
Jane! Thanks so much!
Becky! That’s the amazing thing about ebooks—you don’t have to wait!
Jody! Thanks, and stay warm!
Natalie! What a lovely compliment!

I need me some cowboy lust! I just got done reading a historical western romance….and it was not good 🙁 I was wanting a western romance (contemp or historical…didn’t matter) and I was so disappointed. I should have gotten Saddled instead. Please Delilah, save me from my cowboy doldrums!
After reading the excerpt I know that I definitely made the wrong choice…even just that little bit was SOOOO much better than the entire book that I read. Sorry to say that, but it’s true.
Comment
Booklover! Poor thing!! Haha! Wrong choice there. And if you had a hankering for a historical you could have read one of the Wild, Wild Women of the West books. Next time…
Comment
Loved the excerpt as usual. This is one of your books I don’t have yet.
I just picked up Ellora’s Cave: Legendary Tails III & Fated Mates (among a bunch of others) when they had the big sale at EC.
Comment
Love the excerpt.
Saddled would be a great addition to my ebook collection.
Comment
Congrads on your new release. Great reading. Thanks for sharing with us. Happy New Year everyone.
