Recent reviews for Wildly Inappropriate:

This book triggers a lot of emotions while exposing prejudice in a realistic format, uncovering history unknown in book one and introducing elements of domestic discipline. WARNING: Those of us in the south won't be shocked by some of the situations that arise but others might find it unsettling. Never have I seen this theme done so honestly. It is intrinsic to the development of the story. So much happens in this book and it is all woven so perfectly, so seamlessly, I didn't want to put it down. Including characters from book one was a great addition - readers will feel a part of the DeMarco family as they fall for Daniel and Cynda. There are a few light moments of humor and some suspenseful and tense scenes. The sex is hot, their chemistry is even hotter. This is truly an indulgent read.

Six Sentence Sunday ~ Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day!

Sunday again already? Welcome back. I'm still hard at work on Dan and Cynda's story, Book 2 of Those Devilish De Marco Men series, so I'll share a bit of what's happened with them since last week, when Dan found Cynda chained to the bumper of his truck.  Kinglsey Dazza, a loan shark who's illegally holding the title to her grandmother's house, swears he'll tear up the note her Grams owes him if Cynda can convince Dan De Marco to sell him a piece of his land. Dan isn't planning on selling the land, but he is interested in having Cynda stick around long enough to play a little game.  Cynda agrees, and Daniel has her sign a contract. Let's peek in on the moment when Cynda agrees to two weeks that will change more in their lives than either of them could possibly suspect.

“Take off that damn collar, and sign your name to this contract.”


Cynda couldn’t unbuckle the collar fast enough. Dropping it on his desk, she bent to sign her name neatly on the line he drew beneath his careless scrawl.

“How much is your commission?” he asked, sliding his hand over the swell of her ass.

“Nineteen thousand dollars,” she murmured, focused suddenly on the way her pussy was growing wet as his strong hand continued its massage. Something about signing a contract stating she couldn’t refuse his touch made his fondling all the more  exciting.

Something tells me Cynda will soon discover she's let Daniel stack the deck in his favor. 

But we all know better than to underestimate a woman, don't we? Daniel's mother, Cammie De Marco, simply walked  out the back door one night when Daniel was ten, and never came back. Along with his brothers, Eric and Colton, the De Marco men feel their mother's abandonment has led to their issues with women. I'm sure Mother's Day is a sad day indeed for these three men, as well as for their orphaned nephew Jonah, the son of the sister they lost a few months ago when Sarah was killed in a carjacking. Here's hoping I can manage to get them all their Happily Ever After before another Mother's Day rolls around.

Cover Reveal & Six Sentence Sunday

Welcome back to Six Sentence Sunday. 

This week, I've been working on Book 2 of the De Marco Men series, since I have a publication date, final edits and cover art from Silver Publishing for Book One, Soft Sounds of Pleasure, due to be released this June.
Book Two is as yet untitled, but it's the story of Dan De Marco and Cynda Avery, the young woman Dan finds chained to the bumper of his truck. I decided to post the opening six sentences:

The color of her skin combined with the chain stretching from her slender neck to the hitch on the bumper of his Chevy truck hit Daniel De Marco like a punch to the gut. His truck was black, the factory paint a color that he’d been told was the absence of all light. The woman could be described as black too, but showcased against his truck, her skin defied the label. She was a rich brown, with depths of shade that varied from her shoulders to her tummy to elbows to her knees--a kaleidoscope of darkness which seemed more to him like the presence of all color.

She was also half-naked. Early morning sun caressed her curves and her costume, both delighting and annoying him. She wore a lime-colored tube top with black stripes that frankly hurt his eyes. 

 

Cover Reveal for Soft Sounds of Pleasure, the story which introduces the De Marco brothers, and tells the story of the youngest brother, Colton, and the married woman he's always admired from a distance.

Lila figures her hot hook-ups with handsome, younger Colton won’t

outlast his nephew’s baseball season.

Colton wants a home run with Lila, but thirteen-year-old Jonah’s

being foul, Lila’s loyal heart won’t let him pinch-hit for her dead husband,

and the whole town seems to be keeping score.

Game on.

In other news, I've been contracted to join the editing staff at Silver Publishing, a position I'll begin as soon as Dan and Cynda's manuscript has been completed and submitted.

Thanks for reading, and please follow the embedded link to read six sentences from the other participating authors  this week.
