14 Days of Romance: Nicole Morgan

Welcome to this year’s February Valentine’s event! Today’s guest is author Nicole Morgan, whose going to tell us about her favorite romance novel as well as preview a book from her backlist, Intimate Persuasions. Take it away, Nicole….

One of my favorite all time romance novels is actually a compilation of three novels. The Callahan Brothers Trilogy by Joann Ross consists of three novels. While the books are sold separately, I bought the large and very thick paperback years ago and have read it so many times now I’m afraid to open it anymore for fear the pages will start to fall out.

The first one, Blue Bayou centers Danielle Dupree who returns to her childhood hometown as a widow with a young son, she discovers that her "bad boy" first love, Jack Callahan, has also come home. But even as their passion reignites, Dani and Jack know that secrets hang in the air...and that the past may ruin their second chance at having a once-in-a-lifetime love.

The second story, Magnolia Moon involves FBI agent Finn Callahan. He owes his brother, the mayor, a favor. So when visiting television star Julia Summers receives a death threat, it's up to Finn to guarantee her safety. Free-spirited Julia figures she'll just use her feminine wiles to keep the stern but handsome bodyguard out of her way...until her attraction to Finn puts them both in danger of falling passionately in love.

The third and final story in the trilogy is River Road. In it, L.A. homicide detective, Regan Hart having just discovered that she's adopted, comes to Blue Bayou to uncover her true identity. With the help of Nate Callahan, the town's mayor and most eligible bachelor, Regan slowly pieces together the puzzle of her family's history -- and finds herself unexpectedly losing her heart to Nate.

All three of these stories can tug at your heart in different ways. I think that’s what always makes me go back to them. All three of the Callahan brothers are strong and self reliant men who find they are completely helpless to the allures of the three women who steal their heart. If I had to pick though, I would say that the first book, Blue Bayou is my favorite. However, I will admit that having the lead character, Jack being former Military doesn’t hurt that assessment. I have a tendency to hold a soft spot for all things Military.  

Now for a glimpse into Nicole’s book, Intimate Persuasions, a Siren Classic and an erotic contemporary romance, which is the second book from her Intimate Temptations trilogy with cowboys! Yay!

Ann moved to Oakdale for a fresh start, and when she met Quinn, a sexy cowboy, she instantly fell for him. Unable to deny herself the need to have him, she gives in to a secret fantasy, only to fear their relationship will end before it truly starts.

Quinn soon realizes Ann means more to him than he ever could have imagined. He feels a connection with her that's much deeper than physical, but he has secret desires he keeps to himself, afraid to scare her with what he wants most.

Will they find a way to show each other their true selves and finally love each other completely? And if so, will Ann give him a part of herself she has given to no man before?

VIGILANT by Michele Hart

Michele Hart is back today with an excerpt from her latest sizzling sci-fi romantic adventure, Vigilant, on sale now at Amazon and Bookstrand! Read the first chapter here and watch the book trailer here....


Where do the mortals fit in the war between the angels and demons? One surviving hijacker is charged with the murders of a hundred citizens.
One cop sees her innocence.

Alliance I-Marshal Weber hauls Yadira to her home planet and infiltrates the human-trafficking ring controlling her. But he finds himself unbearably attracted to his witness. A gift for detecting deception reveals she’s the next victim of a criminal industry.

Descending into shadowy worlds of slavery, Yadira endures a dark angel stalking her dreams and watches the quiet I-Marshal become dangerous in her defense Everything about him moves her…except the memory of seeing him execute the most important man in her life. Shouldn’t she take vengeance? Delusions of a heavenly guardian affect her mind.

Slavers and demons plan to snatch her from Weber’s custody while he is uncovering connections, and Weber won’t hesitate to execute the guilty surrounding Yadira. Who but a son of fire can save her from fiends harboring hardcore fantasies of harming her?


Excerpt from Vigilant:

“What if I kissed you before a room of crooks and criminals?”

Goose bumps raced over Yadira’s flesh at contemplation of Weber’s passionate kiss anywhere, in front of anyone, at any time.

She just didn’t know why he would want to kiss her behind closed doors, as blackened with grievous offense as she was. She wished his sister hadn’t told her he could see guilt. She would’ve wept over the state of her soul, if he hadn’t been in the room.

But Weber was in the room, giving her flights of delight with his enticements and innuendo. She was supernaturally aware of his presence, closeness, and possible actions. His hands kneading hers slowed and stroked each finger, stealing a part of her mind.

“I’m available to fill your needs for the case, Marshal.” Her heart pounded in her chest. “If it keeps me from prison.”

He smiled, pleased with her answer, his olive-green eyes alight in the sexiest way. Could his vision carry the power to blank her thoughts and still her actions? Perhaps it was a gift of the unusual gene the I-Marshals carried that made them special. It was a preposterous thought, but she began to think he was something extra-human. Wasn’t a law enforcement officer who saw guilt more than just a cop?

Were delusions of an angel prowling her subconscious messing with her mind?

She wondered how long Weber’s testimony of their being lovers would stay a lie. A firestorm of attraction raged through them. They sat together on a bed now, his hands intimately massaging hers and relaunching all the heat he commanded. He’d kissed her moments ago, programming her to respond to him. Her thighs were on fire. He stared at her lips now as though they were edible, sending her subliminal hints that he would kiss her a second time. The thought of his mouth on hers again… With this much warning, she had time to lose her breath, anticipate the softness of his lips, want him more with every passing second.

"Weber…”

“Yes, Yadira?”

“Have you sent an angel to watch over me?”

A loud bang rocked the room, startling them and breaking the electricity burning the air between them. Her question forgotten, they spun toward the hotel room door to see it had taken a strike to its metal so hard, it dented. She froze in fear.

“Oh, yeah, the Alliance,” the I-Marshal muttered under a sunken brow as though having forgotten some vital information to add to the night. He scrambled from the bed.

A second strike slammed into the security door with great force, denting its surface again. The lock was not yet compromised.

“Move, Yadira! They’ll be through the door in seven more strikes!”

Snapping herself from a terror-induced stasis, she burst from the bed, ran to and fro, looping the bag of clothes around her neck.

“Weber! Did you kill my guard?”

“No. I only kill the guilty. Your guard probably awakened in the room next door about five minutes ago.”

He grabbed her hand and tugged her into the shower room. There, he unlatched the small, highly placed window. It was the room’s only outlet for fire escape. Hotel guests were not prisoners.

Except for Yadira. She actually was a prisoner.

“Who’s coming through that door, Weber? And why?”

The window did not open all the way, so he ripped it from the metal frame, and he pulled in a knotted rope already hung outside for their escape.

“Probably, an Alliance SWAT team…or two, maybe some fed guys, a few overexcited locals. They’ll blow the door in a few seconds. The I-Marshals have taken me off the investigation, Yadira, and I’ve decided if they won’t release you from the case, I’m going to hide you from the Alliance. They aren’t happy with my plan.”

Yadira’s head snapped back to the sight and sound of new dents driven loudly into the room’s door. The noise of hovercraft blades warping the air blasted through the window.

He propped the room’s chair against the wall, assisting her climb to the high window.

“We’re on the fifth floor!”

“All you have to do is get out of this room. Take hold of the rope hanging out the window.”

Displeased with her catatonic speed, he snatched her up and put her atop the windowsill, feet first through the open window. She was about to scream bloody murder when she felt a knotted rope between her legs. She grasped it for dear life and leaned out of the building to assess their position.

The chaos was much louder outside the metal-plated room. Sirens shrieked, flashing lights blinded her. She saw the hovercrafts that belonged to the warp of blades she’d heard pivoting all around the hotel, their spotlights aimed on her and watching. How did they all get there so fast?

She turned to Weber behind her in the shower room, and snapped, “Aren’t I already under arrest?”

“Just climb onto the rope, Yadira, trust me.”

It was difficult to trust him when police on PA systems blasted, “Imperial Marshal Weber and Yadira Maxwell! Hold your position! You are surrounded! Do not attempt to escape!”

Trust him? The alternative was surrender.

Looking up the rope secured to the tube railing of the building, and seeing a variety of police uniforms aiming weapons at her, Yadira grasped the rope, put her feet on a knot, and wiggled off the window ledge, clinging to the rope and shaking. The red-and-blue flashing lights blinded her. The hard breeze set off by the hovercrafts whipped her hair across her face, stinging her. The sights and sounds of every law enforcement machine focused on her exit shocked her. She hadn’t known she was this important to the Alliance.

Or maybe capturing a rogue cop was this important. She guessed it was.

Weber climbed out of the window and onto the rope above her, and then he shimmied down to and around her, protecting her from crazy hails of rubber bullets or stunner rays. Cops with Tasers waited below the rope to take custody of them. Cops with stunners awaited atop the building. Cops in hovercrafts surrounding them, weapons sighting them, awaited any dangerous move. She’d never seen so many uniforms in all her life put together.

They’d never let her out of prison for this!

His big boots planted on a big knot in the rope below hers. “Turn on the rope and wrap your arms around me, Yadira!”

She looked around the hurricane they withstood, terrified. Emergency crews assembled below. Spectators were shooed away from witnessing their deaths or horrible mutilations when they hit the ground. Did the cops plan to plant a laser beam in the rope, melting the braid and causing their fall?

“What’s happening, Marshal? Why is all of Reigna’s force sighting us?”

“Ignore them.”

Her mouth dropped. “Ignore them?”

“I should have punched your guard harder. Put your arms around me!”

Surely, they’d fall!

“Trust me!”

She wrapped one arm around his neck, and let go of the rope with her other hand, hooking her arm beneath his to reach her other hand and locking them together. He trapped her against him with the rope, one hand gripping the lifeline above her Sure she’d next tumble to her death or find herself behind bars, she watched Weber retrieve his palm comp with his free hand and type some numbers with his thumb.

Then Weber let go his grip of the rope, and she experienced the terrifying sensation of falling. It felt like they fell for minutes instead of the second it would have required for them to hit the pavement like melons.

Hi, Amber and friends! I’m thrilled to be here.

One of the first things you learn as a new author when you pass through the gate that is the contract is, it’s not enough just to write a good story these days. An author who wishes to be successful (don’t we all?) must learn to market and promote like a pro. You really must hit the ground running. Learn some Big Time Promo now that evolves your promotional strategy.

Luckily, so many authors are stepping up with ideas to help you, thanks to Amber, 30 Days of Promo Goodness, and The Cozy Page.

Are you awaiting your first release day? Here are a few things to do to create and/or broaden your promo strategy:

a) Have you branded yourself?

Branding is a powerful thing. We humans are such visual creatures. Consider the Golden Arches. When you walk into Micky D’s, nearly every surface you see has the Golden Arches on it. If you’re a fan of fast food, when you get hungry, chances are, you’ll list Micky D’s in the first five restaurants you’ll think of. Even if you don’t like the restaurant. That success is due, in part, to their corporate branding strategy.

You can do that, too. Very advantageous to give your writing a “look”, a “feel”, a “mood” that sets you apart from other authors. If you write humor, make everything you do for promotions funny.

Make your web site, blog, tweets funny. If you write dark and suspenseful, give your promotions the dark feeling that imbues your writing. That will draw the audience you’re aiming for and seduce new readers who didn’t think they were interested. Give the world of your writing a “character” for readers to follow to your books.

Create an eye-catching logo, have business cards printed, and put them where your audience is. The more people see your logo, the quicker they’ll recognize it next time, the sooner it’ll come to mind when they’re looking for a good read.

Having business cards with your brand on it is invaluable. Put them on billboards, leave them in tips with a personal thank-you for servers at restaurants. Jot notes to people on the backs of your business cards. Put them in fishbowls at businesses with your brand visible to the customers. (You might win something!) Find smart--and respectful--ways to leave your cards.

b) Are you targeting your audience? I mean, really targeting your audience?

Do you write Historicals but hang out at review sites that showcase a large array of Romance subgenres? Sure, hang out with them, but have you sought out groups devoted solely to your sub-genre? There are reader sites that specialize in your sub-genre: Historicals, Contemporaries, Futuristics, and Paranormals. Go where your specific audience gathers. That’s where the future lovers of your books await you. Build your presence at these places as well as the more general web sites.

c) Someone has just asked you about your book. What do you do, what do you do?

It’s not easy for most of us to chat up our books, at first. Most authors are introverts who spend a couple of weeks and months at a time alone and typing out stories, so you aren’t unusual in feeling anxious But the ability to pitch your books to readers and editors is an essential tool for a writer who wishes for a sale, so buck up, new author, and sharpen this must-have skill.

You have a listener captured, author. Give them something to hear, see, and do. Tell your listener about your book with enthusiasm, confidence, and brevity. Have something to hand to your listener: a bookmark, an excerpt, a coupon for a free read. Make sure they walk away with something that has your brand on it. That’s an invitation to your web site. It’ll stick in their minds, and that’s what you want. Practice your pitch with a friend.

d) Consider some Big Time Promo...

Do a group event! It’s not as hard as it looks and the pay-off could be large. All you need is a few motivated author-hosts/hostesses. An eye-catching ad, a place to party, and a few (thousand) invitations to readers later, you have a fun bash with interested readers ready to see what you’ve got up your sleeves. Chat away with your readers. Hold some contests. Offer free books. Share recipes, jokes, and excerpts. Readers buy books from authors they’ve “met”.

e) Ready to build a book trailer?

Windows has Movie Maker built into the later versions. It’s easy to learn. A book trailer is excellent passive advertising. You get that baby made and posted on YouTube, and you have a commercial for the length of your book contract.

Never hurts to start thinking of your book trailer in advance. In fact, it’s advisable. Start thinking about it when you finish your book, when you’re writing your blurb. You really can’t put a lot of text in a book trailer, so we’re only talking about a paragraph or two, tops. Build a book trailer as soon as you receive your cover. In fact, you will not go wrong if you plan your book trailer as part of your writing package. Story, blurb, synopsis, book trailer. Or whatever order in which your process leads you. It’s much easier to write the text of your book trailer when you are in the creative swing of things for that story, as opposed to months later when you are already working on your next story. You may find it very difficult to switch gears. It is also a trial to find the pictures you want on a moment’s notice, let me tell you. It’s a true challenge. Searching for pictures over a span of time is much more relaxing.

That’s nearly a thousand words of strategy for thought. I hope a few dozen of them give you a foot up in promoting your book. Happy Start of School, everyone! Even if you don’t have kids. Let’s get the world reading more! How about a sssexy and dangerous shape-shifter escaped from a prison-planet for your summer affair? Can I interest you in a brawler with a badge who can read your mind? How about a risky adventure with the CIA as your adversary? Feel like fighting the Mob today? Do you desire to be frightened by demons, rescued by angels? Would you like to be trapped on a space station with your high-school crush? A gangland hit man named Heretic awaits you… Discover passion, dare, and adventure under all-new moons and stars. Investigate Michele Hart: www.ILoveShapeShifters.com!

Thank you, Amber, 30 Days of Promo, and The Cozy Page! Peace and good day, everyone.

Thank you, Michelle! Readers, check back in tomorrow for an excerpt from Michelle's latest release, Vigilant!

IT'S WENDI DARLIN DAY!

Roll out the red carpet because Linda Howard Award winner Wendi Darlin is here! As a fellow lady of the South, Wendi sure knows how to write super sexy stories that take place—you guessed it—right here in the South! In fact, her tag line is “Hot Southern Lovin” and I’m a huge fan! Not because she’s representing the southern half of American erotic romance—but because she represents well! OH MY GOD well! Just look at the cover for Cowboy Games and drool for yourself.

The story packs as much sizzlin’ punch as the cover does, bringing a truly unique setting to readers and a hero that you’ll want to sink your teeth into from the onset. But more on that later! First, let’s get to know the woman behind “Hot Southern Lovin.”

So happy to have you here, Wendi! Let me just say, there’s nothing like a little hot Southern love to warm up a brisk January night and you deliver!

Amber, thanks for such a warm and enthusiastic welcome! I’m thrilled to be here. I love your blog.

Tell everyone why they have to read Cowboy Games:

Gavin. LOL! Seriously. I love him.

The thing that struck me most about Cowboy Games was the fact that it puts the ROMANCE in Erotic Romance. Yeah, this is a hot story—but it has tender undertones that I found really breathtaking. Can you tell us what compelled you to go the Erotic Romance route instead of straight-up Erotica?

No matter what genre I’m reading, the romantic elements of the book are my favorite parts. I love to fall in love. :) Prior to writing Cowboy Games, I had only written women’s fiction with strong romantic elements. Cowboy Games is my first true romance, and honestly the erotic nature of it came secondary. First and foremost I focused on the developing relationship between Gavin and Rebecca.

I was very nervous about writing the erotic scenes. No one had ever read anything like that from me before and I was worried how it would be received. The whole book has a strong sensual quality to it, so I think that made it easier for me in the end.

Gavin Carter. Wow. The name says it all for me. How did you find Gavin and how did you know this was his story?

Gavin snuck up on me. I didn’t really plan him the way he turned out. At first I thought he was going to be this really bad playboy that the heroine had to turn around, but when I started writing him he didn’t end up that way at all. Thank goodness! I love the way he turned out. Did I mention I love Gavin?

If anyone’s going to give this cowboy a good run for his money, it’s Rebecca Ryder. She bucks the rule book right out the window. Was it hard or easy to develop a heroine with enough challenge and punch to make our cowboy throw up his hands and give a little more every time?

Sassy heroines come easy for me. I can’t imagine why. :) When I first got the idea for Cowboy Games, I only knew about the ranch. I mean, how fun would it be to go to a resort ranch for a week and pretend to fall in love with a cowboy? Sign me up! But in real life, what would make an average woman in her early thirties do something like that? Rebecca needed to be someone who wasn’t afraid to throw her hesitation to the wind and she needed a really good reason. Her wound ran deep, and I wanted her to have the courage to let it heal.

This is a story of healing on both sides. The characters are deep and emotional and one of the most fun things about this story is jumping into their hearts and watching them grabble with what’s going on underneath. Without giving too much away, can you elaborate on this for us please?

Like any romance couple, Gavin and Rebecca both needed good reasons not to fall into one another’s arms and ride off into the sunset on page one. I wanted them both to have to work for this relationship and be deserving of it. Because I’ll tell you right now, if she couldn’t prove she needed him more than I did, I’d have done a quick find and replace. Rebecca Ryder could have become Wendi Darlin in just a few keystrokes. She better know how lucky she is! LOL!

As if Cowboy Games isn’t enough—yep, there’s more, people! Prior to reading Hired Hands, I’d never read a ménage of any sort. But this 34-page TWRP Rosette is an absolute treasure—one that I’ve been known to go back to on cold nights. Again, there’s more to it than the steamy bedroom trio. At the top of the list: character depth—a heroine you truly sympathize (even as you turn green with envy over her…ahem…predicament), a hero you want to box and priority ship to your door, and—oh yeah—that other hot guy thrown in there for us to drool over. Tell us more!

Hired Hands started with a picture I found of two gorgeous identical twin cowboys. Holy moly! Talk about inspiration.

I honestly had a very hard time writing this story and I’m truly taken aback by how well it’s been received. I can give a lot of credit to my fabulous editor, Diana Carlyle, who pushed me for more, more, more.

Hired Hands was the first ménage I wrote, and I had a bit of a stick up my butt in the first draft. Diana wouldn’t let me get away with that and we went through a few rounds of revisions before we were both happy with it.

Come on, be honest, Wendi: did you get jealous of Nora while you were writing those kitchen and bedroom scenes?

It would suck to be her, wouldn’t it? :)

Any chance we might see Jesse (the other hot guy) in the future? Have you considered giving him his own story? I just can’t stand to think of this guy out there on his own while Cole and Nora heat up the ranch house :)

Yes, yes, yes! I was talking to my editor this week about Jesse’s story. I haven’t written it yet, but I’ve finally come up with the heroine who’s ready to tame him. He’s a handful and I think his story is going to be a blast to write. I’ll keep you posted.

In addition, you’ve got Rough and Ready. The title is enough to make me hop over to BookStrand and click the buy button! Your website warns: “This one is for those who like their cowboys EXTRA HOT!” Hotter? Any hotter and I’d break the thermometer, LOL. Tell us about R&R and why you wanted to write something with extra sizzle:

Rough & Ready is an action-packed erotic romance. From the very beginning, Taima, the heroine, is ready to kill the hero. Literally. The tension of the plot adds to the erotic tension. That’s what I like most about this story. It’s like getting into a pillow fight with your boyfriend or husband. The adrenaline is pumping and when the pillows hit the floor you’re both ready to throw all that momentum into lovin’. Ahhh…

Once you’ve read these three titles, don’t despair. Better Than Chocolate is coming soon to The Wild Rose Press. Can we have a peek, Wendi? Pweeety pweease?

Sure! I’ll try to keep it as clean as possible since there isn’t a content warning on your blog, but honestly there aren’t many places in this story that aren’t adult in nature. This is my first paranormal. Can you believe it? No cowboys??? But I think you’ll like Titus. He’s got powers every man should be born with. :)

Better Than Chocolate
Available February 27, 2009
www.thewilderroses.com

Blurb:
Titus is better than chocolate. Dark, dangerous, impossibly gorgeous and capable of giving Randi an orgasm from clear across the room. His skill with telepathy fills her head with his naughty thoughts. A telekinetic ability to make love with his mind leaves her quivering long before he ever lays a hand on her. But this is the same man who has dragged her into the center of a psychic war and exposed the truth of her birth. With her abilities revealed, Randi's connection to Titus is forged. Can he protect her against their enemies or will their irrepressible attraction bring defeat?

Excerpt:
“Then what were you doing back there? You
don’t fake orgasms even when you’re actually having
sex.”
“I wasn’t faking.” Randi bit her lip while the
bartender set the drinks down. She twirled the stem
of her cherry and lowered her voice. “It was that
man. Tight Ass. Titus. The security guy.”
“He was across the hall.”
“I know.”
Mila looked anything but convinced, but their
friendship had weathered bigger storms than this.
“So how are you going to get Clementine to sign a
deal? She thinks we’re a couple of strippers gone
straight. Probably thinks we’ll flake before the first
order is filled.”
“Leave it to me. Just come to the presentations
tonight, and if Tight Ass shows up, run
interference.”
“This guy really got under your skin, didn’t he?”
“You could say that.” She sipped her cocktail
and raised a questioning brow. “Cherry Coke?”
Mila tapped her glass to Randi’s and shrugged.
“Figured one of us needed to lay off the sauce.”
Randi set her drink down slowly. A keen sense
of awareness washed over her. Something she
couldn’t explain happened, but one thing was
certain. She dropped her voice to a whisper. “He’s
here.”
I want to taste you again.
His voice lilted through her mind like a memory
or a thought. Her thighs quivered, and heat curled
in her belly. A hand she couldn’t see slid around her
waist, and a warm breath sent shivers down her
neck. She gasped. “Oh, God.”

** I better stop there. :)

One more question: what’s flaming in your WIP oven at the moment?

Funny you should ask! I’ve got an erotic romance that I’m hoping to finish this week titled Roped & Tied. I think it’s the hottest yet. Two more cowboys and a heroine who isn’t afraid to tell them both what she wants.

I’m also working on one called Long Hard Road. The hero in this story is damaged, but determined. He reminds me a little of your Judd in Blackest Heart. You love him from the word go. Or I did. I hope readers connect with him the way I think they will. His fight to be the man he wants to be and the heroine’s role in getting him there is what makes this one special for me.

Wendi, thank you SO very much for visiting. Here’s your chance to say anything you want about reviews, upcoming releases, or just babble!

Thank you for having me! I’ve been very lucky to get great reviews on all of my books, but what means the most to me are emails I get from readers who enjoyed the stories or fell in love with the characters. If anyone wants to contact me, my email address is wendi@wendidarlin.com or you can always leave a comment on my blog.

If erotic romance isn’t your thing, I’ve also written a sweet coming of age story, The Water Bearer by Wendi Christner. It’s available through Bookstrand, Amazon, or any of your other online bookstores. Of all the books I’ve written, these characters stay with me the most.

Stay warm!
