Life Path #3 for me
Tuesday, July 21st, 2009

Get your FREE Astroprofile

Tell me you can resist an offer like that. It popped up on my screen when I was checking my ho-hum horoscope, so I followed it for kicks. I filled out the little application and voila! Five minutes later I had a free profile in my inbox. My horoscopes are never very accurate—I’m so not your typical Cancer—but the numerology aspect of the report was interesting…

Your Life-Path number is probably the most influential numerological aspect to be considered and represents who you are at the time of birth. It indicates specific traits and will likely be active and influential throughout your lifetime. It is the overall number that determines much of what will be important to you and how you will handle things as they come.

THREE, your life is likely to be characterized by the undying need for expression. This can take the form in conversation but also in the arts. Typically, the THREE has an above-average ability in some art form. This can encompass painting, interior decorating, crafts, writing, music, drama, or all of the above. You are an original and creative thinker, and tend to dominate your circles intellectually. With the elegance of a dancer, you swing back and forth from one idea to another, with wit and eloquence. You also have the power to visualize your ideas, and express them scientifically. Since you identify yourself with your ideas, your most dynamic form of expression is intellectual.

You are sprightly and versatile, and usually end up being the life of every party. Mostly it is you, who gets up on the table and entertains everyone with an improvised one-man show. You feel most alive if you have an audience, are the center of attention, and get an immediate reaction to your mental and verbal output.

Yeah, that’s me. Follow the link and see what the Internet God has to say about you!

Progress on Unbroken

First, thanks to everyone who has purchased Stone’s Embrace! This “starving artist” is very grateful and dying to know what you thought and whether you’d like to see more stories set in that realm!

My sister is visiting through Sunday morning, so I’ve been a ghost online. Today, we headed to Little Rock to watch the latest Harry Potter. I know it’s getting great reviews, but maybe I wasn’t in the mood. I got a little bored waiting for something wicked to happen and was very annoyed with all the “snogging” going on. Maybe it’s just me. My sister loved it, but then again, she loves the stories. I haven’t read even one of the books yet—yeah, I know I’m one of the few people on the planet who hasn’t.

Did see a trailer for a movie I’m dying to see—Sherlock Holmes, coming Christmas. Robert Downey, Jr. has the starring role; Jude Law is Mr. Watson. And it looks AWESOME.

Since Sis will be underfoot for a while, I doubt I’ll have a chance to post for a couple of days. I’ll leave you with a question I’m curious to see how you’ll answer!

If you were given the opportunity to be an apprentice to any person, living or deceased, from whom would you want to learn?

My choice would be Anne Rice before she found God. 😈

A Random Excerpt
Thursday, July 16th, 2009

Because I’m feeling a little lazy today, I’m posting a random excerpt. Keep in mind, it’s unedited, so any typos or poor word choices are entirely my fault! And because it’s sexy, you better be old enough to read it! 😛

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

The meager light from the dash didn’t pierce the intimate silence that settled inside the cab of Justin’s truck. Dani snuggled close to Justin all the way to Rowe’s ranch. His hand smoothed along her side, sliding under her arm to cup her breast and squeeze. She lifted her arm to give him access. Then his hand glided down, right between her legs, and she eased her thighs apart.

“Should have worn a damn skirt,” he grumbled.

She laughed and unbuckled her belt, opened her pants and eased back, giving him room to sneak his hand inside.

No Retreads Here
Wednesday, July 15th, 2009

This morning, I opened my mail to a wonderful surprise. I found another great review for Lockdown, this time from Romance Readers Connection.

“…Ms. Devlin weaves a tale that is raw, erotic, and imaginative. The sexual aspect of this story is phenomenal, both in the sheer eroticism and in its creativeness. The investigation side of the story has just the right amount of intrigue. It was a pleasure to read and I will definitely recommend this fantastic read!”

What’s cool is that I’m managing not to be too predictable. I’ve been at this a while. Sometimes writers retread an old tire because they know it has sold for them in the past, but I just can’t. I have to be excited about what I write, and I always hope that readers will be excited too.

I hope you’ve all bought your copy of Stone’s Embrace. I know you will love it too! It starts in the Louisiana bayou, but heads quickly to Hell. Hades, the ferryman, and The Fates are as real as the girl at the checkout stand. Tell me what you think when you’re done. I’d like to know if I finally jumped off the ledge with this one! :mrgreen:

In the meantime, I’m working on revisions of a cowboy ménage. Something sexy, but that will also make you squirm because one of the characters is acting like a jerk. I’m doing my best to figure out exactly what his problem is so he’ll cooperate and let me get this story right!

Gargoyles, anyone? Get one today!

Lust trapped them in darkness…only love can free them…

From Fallen Angels Reviews: “…STONE’S EMBRACE is a wonderfully descriptive story that draws you right into the heart of the action. The mix of Greek mythology with Christian elements is intriguing and adds to the subtle layering of eroticism and exoticism…Delilah Devlin shows her considerable talent for world-building as well as for creating raunchy sex scenes that’ll leave you sweating…this story is fantastic and a super-hot read!”

From Just Erotic Romance: “…The sex in the book was off the charts hot! There was sex with a statue, and a ménage with a god. It will definitely leave you breathless. I really enjoyed Stone’s Embrace. It was a wonderfully different story with a strong characters and a fun plot that left this reviewer breathless!”

Stone's Embrace releases today!

If you haven’t read the excerpts, do! I know you won’t be disappointed with this story. It has it all. A rugged, sexy hero, a damsel in distress who rescues the hero while he sacrifices himself…

Well, you just have to read it. 😉
