In the Hot Seat: Interview with K. Z. Snow

Welcome the Fantastic K. Z. Snow to the Changeling Press family. Today you are in the hot seat answering the questions we so want to know!

Which would you choose (and you have to choose one!):

Chocolate syrup or body butter?
KZS:Since I have no clue what body butter is, and it doesn’t sound very pleasant, I’ll go with the syrup.

The bed or the wall?
KZS:Comfort. The bed. (Hell, just don’t make me wash the sheets!)

Top or Bottom?
KZS:Top or bottom of what? Okay, bottom.

Three feet of snow or three weeks of ninety-plus heat with eighty percent humidity?
KZS:Now this I can relate to. Much as I hate it after this winter, I’ll go with the snow.

A bus or a plane?
KZS:Yuck. Hate ‘em both. (I’m a train chick.) Okay, bus.

Fifteen minutes late or fifteen minutes early?
KZS:Another bad choice. But I’ll pick early, since lateness makes me cranky.

Hairy chest or smooth?
KZS:Hm. Smooth. But not always.

Muscular or wiry?
KZS:Not sure of the difference and wish I had examples. Muscular, but not muscle-bound.

Geek or businessman?
KZS: Yuck again. Businessman, made with objection.

“The Princess Bride” or “Mr. And Mrs. Smith”?
KZS:Never heard of the latter. “The Princess Bride.”

“American Idol” or “Top Chef”?
KZS:This year, “Top Chef,” ‘cause “Idol” pretty much sucks.

Dogs or Cats?
KZS:Dogs.

Three inches or twelve?
KZS:Three. (Didn’t expect that, didja?)

Thank you K. Z. Snow for being in the Hot Seat!

In the Hot Seat: Interview with Selena Illyria

Welcome the Fantastic Selena Illyria to the Changeling Press family. Today you are in the hot seat answering the questions we so want to know!

Which would you choose (and you have to choose one!):

Chocolate syrup or body butter?

Selena: I can only pick just one? Fine. Chocolate syrup

The bed or the wall?

Selena: Aw, geez, okay I’d go for the wall.

Top or Bottom?

Selena: What kind of questions are these? Okay, Top.

Three feet of snow or three weeks of ninety-plus heat with eighty percent humidity?

Selena: Snow, definitely snow, you can stay nice and warm at home.

A bus or a plane?

Selena: Plane.

Fifteen minutes late or fifteen minutes early?

Selena: Fifteen minutes early. Wait, early or late for what?

Hairy chest or smooth?

Selena: Smooth and tanned and muscular . . . oh, I wasn’t supposed to go into detail was I? lol

Muscular or wiry?

Selena: Muscular.

Geek or businessman?
Selena: I can’t have a combo of both can I? Darn, okay I’ll go for the Geek.

“The Princess Bride” or “Mr. And Mrs. Smith”?

Selena: Frak, okay The Princess Bride. Wesley *dreamy sigh*

“American Idol” or “Top Chef”?

Selena: Top Chef

Dogs or Cats?

Selena: I’m a cat person, so cats.

Three inches or twelve?

Selena: *narrows eyes* Inches of what? Fine, twelve inches.

Thank you Selena for being in the Hot Seat!

In the Hot Seat: Interview with Kassie Burns

Welcome the Fantastic Kassie Burns to the Changeling Press family. Today you are in the hot seat answering the questions we so want to know!

Which would you choose (and you have to choose one!):

Chocolate syrup or body butter?

KB:They’d both end up on the hips, but the body butter sounds like more fun.

The bed or the wall?

KB: Mostly I don’t like being up against the wall, but in this case I’ll make an exception.

Top or Bottom?

KB:Bottom, I’m lazy!

Three feet of snow or three weeks of ninety-plus heat with eighty percent humidity?

KB:You’re asking this question at the end of the worst winter in decades – ninety-plus heat sounds heavenly.

A bus or a plane?

KB: I hate them both but at least flying is faster.

Fifteen minutes late or fifteen minutes early?

KB:I’m an early bird.

Hairy chest or smooth?

KB:Smooth and tanned and I’m all yours.

Muscular or wiry?

KB:I might have to split the difference on this one. I like muscular men, but not too muscular.

Geek or businessman?

As an English major, I tend to be a bit on the geeky side myself, so I’ll go with a fellow geek.

“The Princess Bride” or “Mr. And Mrs. Smith”?

IKB: love both movies, but you can’t beat Mr. and Mrs. Smith for action, adventure, romance and wit, plus Brad Pitt. Oh, yes, and what’s-her-name.

“American Idol” or “Top Chef”?

KB:At the risk of everyone thinking I just got back from Tibet, I have to confess to never having watched American Idol. I’ve also passed on Top Chef, but we do watch Iron Chef, so I’m going with the cooks.

Dogs or Cats?

KB:I’d love to skip this one because I know it’s an easy way to start a war, LOL. I’ve had four or five kitties in my life and loved them all, but I’m a dog lover first and last. At the moment we have two adorable silky terriers.

Three inches or twelve?

KB: Oh, gosh, let’s see. I’m five foot two. Do the math.

New Release: Leopard Tails 2: Submissive by Isabella Jordan + Contest

LEOPARD TAILS 2: SUBMISSIVE

Available today from Changeling Press

Neva Kolenkov has lived in the shadows for years. Hiding from a dark and painful past, she just wants to exist beneath everyone's notice.

Yet someone has noticed her. Isaak Stahl sees Neva in his coffee shop every day and is determined to claim her as his mate. They are from the same proud line of demon leopards, from the same homeland, and it only makes sense that they be together. It also doesn't hurt that the exotic, green eyed beauty makes him burn with lust every time he sees her.

When a serial killer claims the life of a young human girl who works in Isaak's shop, the shadow of danger falls on their kind in Madden. Several of their females match the killer's profile -- including Neva.

Can Isaak protect her from the threat the killer poses? While doing that, can he help Neva discover the powerful, desirable being he sees when he looks at her?

The demon hunters are back!

DEMON HUNTERS 1: SEE NO EVIL

Michele Bardsley

 Four demons imprisoned for their sins. Let them go and chaos begins. Each has a gift you must gain. Only then will you break evil's chain.

Angelica Mortis, the daughter of the legendary Maggie Mortis and the half-demon Raphael, is all grown-up. Angel owns and operates Demon Hunters, Inc. with her best friend Graddie.

Business isn't exactly bustling, but for the Mortis family, hunting demons isn't just a job -- it's a life-long calling. An anonymous gift arrives at the office: a statue of four monkeys representing see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, and do no evil. A cryptic poem warns them a very dangerous game is about to be played and the prize is a biggie: Ruling the four planes of existence.

As if Angel's life wasn't complicated enough, the Otherworld High Council -- the very one her mother destroyed twenty-five years ago -- has been resurrected. The new council seems to think she'll work for them, and sends along an annoying (and okay, gorgeous) Guardian named Roc. She can't decide if she wants to kiss him … or kill him.

And oh yeah, the High King of Hell wants to marry her.

No one said carrying on the family business would be easy…

"Angelica Mortis," hissed a terrifying voice. "Thy destiny is upon you. Thou art a daughter of heaven and hell. Thou art the fated ruler of all worlds. Thou art my mate and forever mine."

What the--

She opened her mouth, but no words would come out. The edges of her vision darkened and she knew she was going to pass out. She slid to the ground, her breathing erratic. For a split second, she wondered if she were dying.

A bright light exploded a few feet away. The miasma shattered, and a frustrated scream echoed as the evil released its hold on her.

Her heart pounded furiously and she gulped air. Her body trembled and she was shocked to realize that tears dribbled down her cheeks.

"Angelica Mortis," said a deep, silky voice. She looked up at the man towering over her. He was dressed in ass-kicking boots, tight leather pants and a loose white shirt. His dark hair was short and spiked and three silver hoops glittered in his right ear. He held a gleaming silver staff; at its top, a round crystal glowed with white light.

"Who the hell are you?" she managed in a cracked voice.

He leaned down and held out his free hand. "I'm the guy who just saved your life."

Her pride was damaged, but she was too shaken up to refuse his help. She took his hand and he pulled her to her feet. He looked her over with one eyebrow cocked. "Quite frankly, I'm disappointed. I expected more from the daughter of Maggie Mortis."

Oh, no he didn't. She made her smile tremble as she gazed soulfully at him. Then she kicked him in the kneecap. He stumbled and she punched him hard in the solar plexus. He flew backward, and she grabbed his fancy staff right out of his hand.

He lay stunned against the opposite wall. Well, she was the daughter of a demon. She had über strength. She stood above the stranger and clanged the staff on the concrete. "I asked you a question, asshole."

Make Mine a Double (Yeah, baby, yeah!)

Rookery Cove Aphrodisiacs:
Make Mine a Double

Brim and Stone are dragons who were hatched on the island nearly a hundred years ago. Now, they live in the dark caverns below the factory, guarding the Heart, which is the very essence of Rookery Cove. As their first-century birthday approaches, Brim and Stone are experiencing the quickening. They desperately need a female to sexually facilitate their joining so they can complete their permanent transition.

Thanks to her overprotective male relations, Charlotte "Charli" Maguire's current love life is non-existent. She yearns to fulfill her fantasy: Hot sex with two men. Hah. She might as well wish to visit the moon. Then Charli wins a contest sponsored by Rookery Cove Aphrodisiacs: An all expense-paid vacation to Halifax, a tour of the factory, and $500 worth of sex aids.

During the tour, the guide takes her to the "fantasy room." Charli finds herself the sensual participant in a threesome with two gorgeous men. Forget the sex toys. Forget the nearest exit. These two hunks are better than any prize!

http://www.changelingpress.com/product.php?&upt=book&ubid=726

EXCERPT

"The room I'm taking you to is very special. In fact, we like to think of it as the place where your deepest, darkest fantasy can come true."

With Charli's heart beating a sudden, rapid tattoo, she followed Elwyn through the dimly lit hallway. At some point the concrete floor gave away to the grit and bumps of natural stone. They walked up a short set of stairs carved into stone and through an arched doorway.  

Holy canole! The room was all black marble; the unrelenting dark was softened only by the recessed lighting in the ceiling. Charli noticed the huge, circular bed on the right. The glossy shine of black silk sheets caught her gaze. A dozen black pillows in all shapes and sizes filled the top part of the bed.  

"What's your fantasy?" asked Elwyn.

"Do I have to tell you?" She wandered away the magnificent room, her stomach squeezing in excitement. "This is an interesting place, all right."

"If you sit on the bed and make your wish," he said, walking to it and patting the covers, "you might get exactly what you want."

"So, this is a magic room? Oh, c'mon." Still her pulse raced at the very possibility. Maybe they had researched her and found out she wanted two men to make love to her. Yeah. God. What if they had? What if part of her prize package was trying out Rookery Cover's sex-tastic room o' fun? Charli gazed at the bed. Really, she should be thinking more clearly about this situation.

She was caught between doing the right (and boring) action or taking the risk -- the risk that Elwyn wasn't teasing her or that she wasn't crazy.

"So, if I sit in this room and think about my favorite sexual fantasy… I'll get it?" Her gaze flicked to his. "That's quite a leap of faith."

"That's the thing about faith," he said. "You always have to jump for it."

A couple of wonderful reviews of Ropacabana!

I received a couple of truly wonderful reviews for Ropacabana and I wanted to share. My sincerest thanks to both reviewers.

"Isabella Jordan has created an erotic, emotional and romantic tale that I couldn't put down. Salma is a famous dancer who has become cynical and jaded resulting from the industry she is in. While Tony is an honest, naive and old fashion guy who is attracted to Salma not Salome. Their attraction is put to the test when Salome and Tony are instructed to perform for one the Salome's rich admirers. This exposes the ugly side of Salma's profession, yet Tony only sees Salma's inner beauty and compassionate persona. I found Salma and Tony's relationship quite intense enforcing the fact that they are from two different worlds yet their connection draws them to each other. I really liked Tony's characteristic and untainted persona and I can see why Salma's attracted to him. Call me kinky but I highly enjoyed the "private showings" that Salma and Tony performs which includes BDSM, oral and anal stimulation and ménage. Oh my, I needed some ice as I read these scenes. My only complaint is that this story had to end and I really didn't want to go back to the normal world just yet. I look forward to many more stories from Ms. Jordan!" - 5 Stars, Heat Level: O, Tallyn Porter, JERR

"Ropacabana is a great novella about a man loving a woman for who she is, not for the illusion of who she is. You will love Isabella Jordan's ability to fuse both scorching, kinky love scenes with tender moments into a marvelous story you won't be able to put down. Jordan has created one luscious Latina heroine and a strong but sensitive hero. After getting to know Salome, you will sympathize with her and understand why she has to put up the defenses she does. Luckily, Tony is the one man that can light her fire - and warm her heart. Viva Los Regalos: Ropacabana is a sweet and spicy must-read!" - Mandy Briggs, Paranormal Romance

Tomorrow, Tomorrow...

Is it wrong of me to title my post after a very famous song from a very famous children's movie on an Erotic Romance publisher blog? Probably. But, dammit, I just don't care. Why?

BECAUSE TOMORROW Tri Me IS OUT!!!

Woo-to-the-oot!

And how about a little 70's porn theme music? Bow, chick, bow bow.... You know what I'm talkin' bout baby... <- Said in my deepest Barry White-esque voice. So, yeah, I'm just bouncing around, waiting for the release... counting down the hours and minutes... Here's the blurb: Eric D’Amore is back and still struggling to pair Extraordinaries and Normals together. Good thing his next trio already shares a bit of history, otherwise his job would be nearly impossible.

Two men, one woman and some yummy man loving… What more could a woman ask for?

Lara Kinley is a schoolteacher by day and a waitress at TJ’s, the local Animali Extraordinary bar, by night. Everyone has to make sacrifices to get what they want, but will Lara’s sacrifices result in her dreams coming true and her wildest fantasies fulfilled?

Theo and Jackson are partners in love and life, but both of them feel something is missing. It takes the prodding of Eric D’Amore and an order from the Office of Kink and Karma for them to admit their desire for a woman in their lives to each other. Once they understand and accept the other’s needs, they embark on seducing and capturing Lara as their own. But can she open her heart to these two men and allow their love for her to solve all her problems?

And now (drum roll please....) a sneak peak at the opening chapter, just for ya'll:

****

A slim, cool hand slid around Eric’s cock, pulling him awake with its slow, even strokes. His voice, gravely from sleep, called out the owner’s name. “Melani.”

She melded to him, pressing her breasts into his side, resting her head on his shoulder as her fingers worked their magic. Propping his arms behind his head, he relaxed under her touch. Sure, they’d decided to end their relationship for their own reasons, but damn, she knew which places to stroke.

“Eric, I’ve missed you.”

Her voice, a seductive purr, shot straight to his cock. She began snaking down his abdomen, skin slithering against skin, but he grabbed her shoulders, stopping her descent. “Not this time, Lani. We’ll both get our pleasure.”

Smiling and with a grace born of her years spent dancing, she climbed atop him, settling her moist, hot core over his cock. Her lithe, lean form, with its trim hips and deeply tanned skin, rose above him. Her dark brown hair cascaded around her shoulders in large curls.

Sliding his hands along her outer thighs, he squeezed and kneaded the firm flesh. Melani kept herself fit and trim; tight muscle covered every inch of her from head to toe and not a bit of fat or flab could be seen. She truly was the ideal woman for anyone but him. But here she was, in his house and in his bed, ready and willing.

Melani’s bare pussy slid along his cock, spreading her cream all over him as she moved. The warm, wet heat teased him, but he needed more. Grasping her hips, he controlled her motions. Back and forth, back and forth, over and over he moved her as he desired. She moaned her appreciation of his control. Each time the head of his cock slid near her opening, he barely resisted the urge to plunge into her depths. Each time he nudged her clit, she cried out in pleasure.

Melani pressed her hips down on his, slowing his movements, but increasing the friction. Having had enough of teasing her, he raised her hips up, poising his cock at her entrance and pressing into her slightly.

“Yes, oh God, yes!”

In one forceful thrust, Eric embedded his cock deep within Melani’s heat until her smooth, cream-slicked skin pressed against his groin. They lay joined, their breathing heavy as seconds ticked by, Eric giving her pussy a chance to adjust to his size. It had been a long time since they’d fucked.

****

Yeah, I'm a tease, but you love me anyway, right? Right?

Ce ;)

PS. Wanna get 5% off your order... Lean closer and I'll tell ya how. We gotta keep this on the down low though cause I don't want "the powers that be" catching wind of this and, well, you don't want to know what will happen. Here's a coupon code good for the entire week... 07OCT14 Just don't tell'em where you got it, okay?
