Day Seven — 30 Days of Giveaways
Tuesday, October 7th, 2008

To celebrate the November 4th release of Alluring Tales 2: Hot Holiday Nights the Allure Authors are giving away LOTS of great books! In case you missed the previous announcement, here’s the link for the contest’s rules: 30 days of Giveaways!

For a chance to win Myla Jacskon’s wonderful e-book, TROUBLE WITH HARRY, post a comment and let me know if you’ve read any of my sister’s books, and if you have, which one!

5 Unicorns from Enchanted in Romance: “I absolutely loved this book! The humor and crazy situations along with the steamy sex are wonderful to read…I’m dying to know what will happen next! Perhaps I can just “wish” for it to happen now.”

5 Angels from Fallen Angel Reviews: “Trouble with Harry is a fun and funny, magical romp through time…”

4 Stars from Just Erotic Romance Reviews: “Trouble with Harry is a rollicking adventure tale with a sexy pair of unlikely lovers reminiscent of romantic adventure movies…fun, sexy and very entertaining.”

TROUBLE WITH HARRY

In 1924, Harry, an adventurous archeologist, uncovers his greatest discovery–the tomb of the daughter of Shah Azhi “the devil king”, containing the magical stone of Azhi. Legend tells of the stone’s great power to grant wishes. When Harry lays his hands on the prize, he’s sucked into a bottle to sleep for over eighty years.

In the twenty-first century, lonely museum worker, Edie Ragsdale, has been tasked with cataloguing the contents of a sarcophagus. Among the mummified remains of a long-dead princess, Edie finds a bottle. When she brushes away the dust of thousands of years, a naked Harry appears out of thin air. Because she was the one to wake Harry from his long sleep, Edie is able to wish for anything her heart desires and Harry has to grant it. But when her wishes land her on the set of a porn film and the deck of a pirate ship with 100 sex-starved pirates ready to teach her a few lessons on sex, Edie has to rely on handsome Harry to bail her out. Come along for a sexy, rollicking romp and learn why you should be careful what you wish for!

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

“Step aside. Move yer bloody arses!” A dirty man with blackened teeth, a scraggly beard and breath that could make a camel wretch, pushed a line of equally repulsive men out of the way. Then he leaned into Edie’s face and breathed a putrid stench against her lips. “As the first mate, I have the right to go first.”

The fog and darkness immediately left Edie’s mind. Just like in her dream, she was stripped of her clothing and tied to the main mast of an ancient pirate ship. Around her a hundred bloodthirsty pirates leered, their tongues hanging out of their mouths as if drooling over that twenty-ounce steak Edie thought she’d have to tie around her neck to attract a man. So, she’d been wrong. She could attract a man, or men, just by standing in front of them naked.

Just for fun

Just for fun and because I’m going to be writing like a demonesse today, I plucked a question from my “chat pack.”

What was your favorite thing to pretend when you were a young child?

I’ll post my answer later and you’ll have a great big laugh.

On the road again-again…
Monday, September 22nd, 2008

What is the most exciting event you have every witnessed?

While you’re reading this, I’m in my little dark cherry Scion heading back to Arkansas from a ferociously fun weekend. Think about me—bedraggled, hung over, squinting at the road—and be sure to post your final entry in the contest today!

Blogging at Romance Junkies…

Flavor of the day…

If you had to be of a different ethnicity than you actually are, to which heritage would you most like to belong?

Being of predominantly German blood (cold, analytical) and having married an Irishman (fiery and anything but logical), I’d choose to be Italian. :mrgreen:

Think about it—flashing brown eyes and temper, curves in the right places, a loud loving family and great food.

While we're wishing…

If you had to spend an entire summer working at one of our country’s national parks or historic sites, which one would you choose?

My personal fave is Glacier National Park in Montana. I remember being a small child traveling through the park. Dad was in the Air Force and we were stationed in Eastern Montana. Mom’s mother lived in Spokane, Washington and we visited as often as we could. The trip took us right through the park. The tall, glacier-covered mountains looked like they scraped heaven.

P.S. I arrived at Pullman Plaza last night. Did I mention that I’m in West Virginia, not Kentucky!? Good thing I had my new friend Cindi along for the ride or I never would have found the place.

And yes, she’s a talker, but odd thing was, I blabbed the whole way here too! Anyway, charming company for the ride, then Lori O’Clare was outside the hotel when we pulled up and was I ever excited to see her! She looks fabulous, gave me a great big hug, which I seriously needed, then helped me get sorted out with the hotel. Do I sound like I was wimpy last night? I was, but only because 13 hours of driving had worn me out. I’d hoped Cindi could spell me behind the wheel, but I hadn’t a clue she was nearly 6 feet tall, and the car was so packed she couldn’t scoot the seat back far enough.

Saw Sylvia O’Day in the bar. Another great big hug and I was thrilled to get to spend some time with her and the friend she brought with her. BTW–the friend is a dead ringer for Pink–have I ever mentioned my girl-crush on Pink?
