Blog postSo, I haven’t blogged in a while, but I feel like it’s something I’m finally mentally healthy enough to take on again, and I’m absolutely going to make an effort to start doing it more consistently with the old favorites like Music Monday and Thankful Thursday, etc. But, before I dive into the core topic of today’s ramble (with gifs!) I do have to say that without the support of so many amazing authors, readers, and local friends I know I wouldn’t have made it through the last year without lo2 years ago Read more

Social Date-stancing: Having a Fun Date on Zoom COVID-19 has forced a lot of us to put our dating lives on hold while we try to protect ourselves and our communities from a fate much worse than being single. But what are you supposed to do, grow old alone because of a little publicly mandated isolation? Now more than ever, singles need a little extra companionship.

Blog postHi Lovelies. I totally meant to post this on Tuesday, but with everything going on it totally slipped my mind. I wanted to let you know that my mom is now in hospice. The cancer has spread a lot and she’s in so much pain. I know this will be a mercy to her, but I feel so lost right now. It’s just me and my step-grandmother handling all of this and I’ve never felt so alone.
While that is going on, my good friend Zoe put out a bomb-ass series and I wanted you to see it! Take a look at t3 years ago Read more -
Blog postThis #MusicMonday is Pacific from ‘S’ and Jenn Champion. It’s no secret that I’ve had some serious struggles with depression over the past year, and this song showed up at some point during a low time and it made me cry so hard because it just… connected with me. It’s both sad and like a big hug at the same time. It’s not as light-hearted as some of my recent songs, but I can’t keep these powerful lyrics, and the beautiful music that comes with it, away from you, lovelies. <3

Blog postI’m excited to get this #MusicMonday out to all of you, lovelies, because one of my awesome readers actually tagged me in a post about this song saying that it reminded her of me! Of course, I already love Halsey to death, but I agree that her new song ‘Nightmare’ has some badass lyrics too. Enjoy it, lovelies!

Hey lovelies! It has been a seriously long time since I’ve done one of these AMAs… for real. This one has been sitting on my ‘to do’ list for a long time now (months and months) but I’m trying to get my inbox cleaned up and the lovely Shane Starrett sent me this list of questions after we spent a few days chatting about writing and my tips / experiences / suggestions from my years of writing. I’ll be honest though, this is just MY point of view. You might learn some things abou3 years ago Read more -
Blog postI am so excited to share this with you, lovelies. One of my best friends, Livia Grant, has been having difficulties finishing her insanely complicated book, ‘Black Light: Scandalized’. So what can a good friend do but suggest they take a break and write something TOTALLY hot, naughty, and completely off-genre to help clear out the writers block bugs. Not only did she do it, she did it very well and now has a new pen name to go along with the new genre!

Blog postLook at me, I got a #MusicMonday AND a #TeaserTuesday up in the same week. If that isn’t winning on the authorlandia front, I don’t know what is. I am waiting for some really important news that will either be really good or really bad, so bear with me lovelies. Life may just throw me a curve ball yet again.
But let’s focus on the good stuff! Jane Henry had a new release of ‘The Bratva’s Bride’ and she absolutely kills the mafia romance genre. Super sexy, dark, and simply amazing, if3 years ago Read more -
Blog postI’ve been terrible about keeping up with #MusicMonday because life keeps distracting me, but I want to try and get back to it. Starting today with ‘Moments’ by Tove Lo (who I adore) and I have to say this song resonates with me SO MUCH! I definitely feel like she’s speaking to my soul with this song and I think when you read the lyrics / listen to the song you’ll see why. The video has more than just the song, and it’s powerful af too.

FIRST 3 BOOKS IN THE BLACK LIGHT SERIES! Over 600 pages long!
“One of the best BDSM romance series I have read, with the perfect blend of good characters, believable kink, excellent writing, and good story line.” ~ Life in the Book Lane Blog
INFAMOUS LOVE (The Prequel)
Two male models falling for a curvy grad student shouldn’t be reality. That’s the stuff of fairy tales. But when Emma gets swept off her feet by Jaxson and Chase, she’s caught up in an infamous love affair that quickly turns into front page news.
BLACK LIGHT: ROCKED (Book 1)
When a rockstar spots his childhood sweetheart in the audience, he only has one thing on his mind — vengeance. He’ll punish her for breaking his heart no matter how much she claims to be innocent. Their history is full of secrets, and a second chance at romance might be impossible, but could the truth be more painful than the sadistic games he plans to play?
BLACK LIGHT: EXPOSED (Book 2)
Little white lies are supposed to be harmless… and she was just looking for a story, one big enough to land her dream job as a reporter. A secret, underground BDSM club is perfect — but so is the hot, dominant congressman who helps her get inside. With the deadline closing in, and her lies unraveling, she’ll have to choose between her dreams… and her heart.
“The Black Light series is truly electric! I have read everything in this series and have found new authors to add to my one-click list… anxiously awaiting the next release!” ~ Sue Tedrick Reviews
but nothing hurts more than this.
Maddie always said she’d do anything to be a reporter.
Exposing a secret, underground club for the wealthy elite of D.C. would get her there.
Except nothing in life is easy.
And her number one problem is Thomas Hathaway.
Tall, gorgeous, dominant — and a congressman.
He’s the perfect source, the perfect story…
and he might just be perfect for her.
Except everything between them started with a lie.
Every sinful moment of submission is tainted with it.
But the deadline is coming fast,
the truth will come out,
and Maddie has to decide if she’ll shatter her dreams… or her heart.
WARNING: This standalone BDSM romance has scenes of power exchange, punishment, and a good dose of angsty feels. If this doesn’t interest you, then please do not purchase.
But he would.
Anthony took Beth to remake her into the perfect toy for his customers. Mindless, obedient, a broken thing without complications.
But Beth is strong.
She refuses to break, refuses to let Anthony erase her... even if that means losing in the end.
"I'll break you down. It may take time, but I will."
"And if I don't break?"
"You will."
Taken from work one night, Thalia is thrust into the violent, controlling world of a man she thought had been the security guard for her building, but she quickly learns that this was only a cover to get to her, to take her. As her old life is erased, the guard pushes Thalia to recognize the darker sides of herself, while Thalia endeavors to hold on to who she is.
Trapped alone with her abductor, can Thalia fight to retain her sense of self, or will his small glimpses of kindness cause her to finally submit to him?
'Security Binds Her' is a dark, brutal journey that leaves readers breathless and waiting to turn the page to find out if Thalia will break, or be lost forever to the darkness around her.
Thalia and James have just met under the most insane of circumstances. He purchased her at an underground auction from a man who kidnapped her, tormented her, and sold her to the highest bidder.
In their first few months together Thalia wants to view James as her savior, her knight in shining armor that she can stay with in safety, but she can't escape the trauma she went through and the lingering effects it has caused. James isn't sure, now that he has Thalia, if he can handle the depth of submission she displays.
Can James help her strike a balance between who she is as a person and her newfound craving for submission, or will her urge to submit swallow her whole until James has no choice but to set her free?
"I'm too broken for love."
After everything Beth has been through, all she wants is to feel normal.
To be normal.
But the weight of her past won't let her go easily.
"Wanting her is wrong."
All Jake wants is to be a hero.
To save as many as he can from the monsters of this world.
But when the monsters come for Beth Doherty...
he isn't thinking like a hero.
Ripping her out of her life was bad enough.
Wanting her is worse.
But resisting her might just be impossible.
Cold, ruthless.
I’m Paulo García’s monster, and I’d swallowed that bitter pill whole, learned to deal with it… until she stormed into the house like some avenging Valkyrie.
Brave, beautiful.
Nicky just wants to save her brother. She showed up with an envelope full of cash and a smart mouth and found herself in a den of monsters. I wish I could say I was the best of them, I wish I could protect her — but I’m far from perfect.
