    woman, fascinated with beautiful images, moves in next door, Chandler finds herself
    falling under the spell of the last person she expects to make her happy. There’s
    just one problem: an ex-girlfriend with a grudge and the power to curse her happiness.

    About the Author

    K.T. Black often mixes genres when creating her romance stories.
    Whether her (F/F or F/M) stories are filled with witches or regular people, they
    frequently include mystery/suspense, sci-fi, fantasy or paranormal elements. She
    never limits the direction her imagination takes her when telling a good story.
    When she’s not writing, she enjoys spending time with family
    and friends, going to movies, cooking, traveling, playing video games, and meeting
    interesting/eccentric people–many of whom help color the worlds she creates while
    writing.

    Sexy to Go Jocelyn Dex + 10 more @jocelyndex #RLFblog #boxedset

    Today’s author interview is with Jocelyn Dex.

    About the Author

    Jocelyn’s writes paranormal and contemporary romances that include
    humor, lust, love, and four-letter words on the way to a Happily-Ever-After. And
    sometimes she writes short, dirty stories just for fun.

    Interview with Jocelyn Dex

    Why did you write this
    book?
    Sexy to Go, Volume 1 was actually Eva Lefoy’s idea. She wanted
    to put together a variety of sexy short stories from different authors for readers
    who are on the go. There are paranormal and contemporary stories in the collection
    and we plan to release a new volume each month. It’s a great way for readers to
    find new authors and authors to find new readers.
    What is your favorite
    genre to read?
    Paranormal is my favorite. Give me a sexy demon or vampire or
    elemental (anything supernatural) and I’m happy. It’s also my favorite to write,
    but I like to change pace and read/write contemporaries too.
    Who is your favorite character
    from fiction (not including your own)?
    There are so many! But, one of my favorites is Wraith from Larissa
    Ione’s Demonica series. He’s bad, he’s good, he’s oh-so-sexy.
    What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you
    in coming months?
    I’m working on a couple of short stories for the next volumes
    of Sexy to Go. So be on the lookout for some more super-hot shorts coming soon!
    I’m also working on the next book in my Hunting Hell series. Watch out for that
    one too.
    Please tell us about your
    latest book.
    Sizzling short stories from top-selling authors. Sample romance
    in all its flavors in Sexy to Go. From paranormal to contemporary, you’ll find your
    short, sexy story fix here. Look for a brand new collection every month.

    Merry Chris Mas a Love Play Matchmaking Clare Dargin @clare_dargin #RLFblog

    Merry Chris Mas
    This quick interview includes info about the author, and introduces
    the story.

    About the
    Author

    I am a fan
    girl and scifi geek who loves romance novels. Not a contradiction by any standards
    if you consider the love story between Han Solo and Princess Leia in the original
    Star Wars trilogy (and we won’t even talk about that taboo thing with Luke and Leia–
    hello! I don’t write that kind of stuff nor go for it. Anyways, moving on…)
    I’ve been
    writing stories since I was a child and bored everyone I knew with my little made
    up tales of I can’t remember but all I do know is that they were precious gems that
    developed into gold mines. Okay maybe I’m exaggerating but my parents did encourage
    to continue writing stories.
    My first novel,
    Cold Warriors, a scifi romance was published in 2007 and that just fed my insatiable
    need to keep entertaining people with stories of love conquering all. I live in
    the midwest and am still writing hoping one day to convert the entire world to my
    way of telling stories.

    Interview with Clare Dargin

    Why did you write this book?
    I had to when
    the inspiration struck. I’ve always wanted to write a menage romance and this story
    was the perfect fit for that type of romance.
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    It depends
    on the mood I’m in… it can be contemporary, scifi, paranormal, erotic, menage,
    mainstream… It just depends on what catches my eye or strikes my fancy.
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your
    own)?
    It’s weird
    but I have favorite characters who live in tv and movies but love certain books
    or series. It’s just the way my brain works when I see things. I’m a visual type
    of person though I work with words primarilly– yes it’s strange but that’s who
    I am.
    What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you
    in coming months?
    Presently,
    I am working on two paranormal books that will be the first of two different series
    whilest playing around with a couple of ideas for the sequel to The Love Play Matchmaking
    Service. In the coming months you will see the paranormal books published first
    followed by hopefully two in the Love Play series.
    Please tell us about your latest book.
    Jilly Reimers
    wants love but can’t find it. Chris Spinell is a veteran of the war in Afghanistan
    who suffers from PTSD and a haunting feeling that something is missing in his life.
    Chris Poole is also an Afghanistan war veteran is ready to break out of his shell
    but is unsure how.
    With Christmas
    just around the corner, they decide not to spend it alone. Believing The Love Play
    Matchmaking Service to be just what they need for a night of fun and passion, they
    sign up. But when the guys show up and see that they’ve been set up on a menage,
    the only one happy about it is Jilly.
    Their consultant, called an Eros, assures Jilly that the service
    has a perfect track record but she’s certain they’ll be the first ones to get their
    money back. Will they have a very merry Christmas? Or will the three spend yet another
    one alone?

    Publisher: Romance Lives Forever Books
    Author Kayelle Allen
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): PG13
    Travel to a godforsaken planet on the outskirts of space. Check.
    Hold intrusive military goons at bay. Check. Find an invisible man in a different
    dimension. Check. Finish out the vacation TRAIL yanked you back from to do it? Easier
    said than done. Yanked back from their first vacation in ages, Jee and Dane get
    handed a top priority mission. The pay is better than they’ve earned before as agents
    for the Trace, Rescue, and Identification League. After this, they might not need
    jobs. They’re the best there is, and the item, person, or secret hasn’t been invented
    that these two can’t recover. Until now. After all, how do you find an invisible
    man in another dimension? The archaeologist in charge can’t afford this fee, and
    neither can the military. So the real question is who — or what — is behind the
    request to trail Kaiwulf?

    This book can be read alone.
    Genre Contemporary Western Romance
    Author Mary J. McCoy-Dressel
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    Rancher Jase Carlson doesn’t understand the ache in the hollow
    of his chest, since his ex-wife ripped his heart out. She doesn’t follow the court
    rules where his children are concerned, making him even more pissed off. Harboring
    a bad attitude, he wishes he wasn’t a gentleman when he comes to the aid of a quick-tempered,
    sexy blonde. He can’t allow her tight jeans and sweet smile to sway him, even after
    he’s coerced into spending time alone with her. Fighting the torturous battle going
    on within his own mind and body, he can either deal with it—or succumb to the woman
    who appears to be everything he didn’t know he needed.
    In an attempt to save her rebellious teen sister from herself—as
    her guardian, Brenna Page leaves everything behind and moves to Canyon Junction,
    Arizona. When she unexpectedly meets a hot-headed cowboy with intense blue eyes
    and muscles to die for, the first thing she wants to do is get away. Since she can’t
    seem to shake him, Brenna wonders if that same grudge-filled cowboy with an attitude
    is someone worth taking on. But still dealing with painful memories, and a sister
    who wants nothing to do with Arizona, the last thing she needs right now is a horse
    ranching cowboy interfering.
    One wrong turn. Two broken families. Brought together by chance,
    and need.
    Note: Look for Book #3, the fourth book in the Double Dutch Ranch
    Series spring 2015.

    Tristan Carlson does the best he can to raise his four-year-old
    daughter on his own. His mother remains on the Double Dutch to lend a hand—giving
    him the ability to maintain the ranch, tend to his horses, and keep up his small-time
    ranching magazine. His attractive, new assistant is everything he wants in a woman,
    including her ginger-red hair. But from his experience with women lately, he’s learned
    that some don’t want a ready-made family. This one seems different, and he’s falling
    hard. But, there’s his little blue-eyed girl, and he’ll protect Destiny’s heart
    with everything within him. Until he knows for sure…
    Living the good life in a big city for many years, Nora Trinity
    ends up a statistic after the magazine she works for makes cutbacks. Despite a family
    betrayal from her past that still needs mending, she moves back home to the small
    town of Canyon Junction, Arizona, with forgiveness on her mind. When she is hired
    by a local rancher to help with his ranching magazine, she finds herself profoundly
    attracted to him. The thing is, her sexy boss comes as a package deal, and his little
    girl is immediately drawn to her. It’s not just about two hearts taking a chance
    now—or two people falling in love… Nora has to be sure of what she wants before
    she takes on the cowboy and his child.
