Is his love hot enough to shelter her from the coming storm?

Lucy is unable to believe her good fortune when she receives an invitation to adopt adorable baby Flora. And she can’t wait to move to a frontier moon to raise the little one on a farmstead of her own. But when she arrives on the desolate moon of Atropos, she realizes it will take every last ounce of her ingenuity and courage to get their new herd of tundra bison across the ice plains before they succumb to an earthquake, a blizzard, or a wild animal attack. Or worse… before she succumbs to the baby’s infuriatingly handsome guard.

Arik knows instantly that the innocent-looking little Terran is his fated mate. But she plays it cool, pretending not to notice how irresistible he is, and instead focusing her surprisingly impressive survival skills on getting them all to the mountains unscathed. Her stubbornness would be enough to send the mighty Invicta dragon warrior over the edge, if he didn’t have bigger things to worry about, like how to protect baby Flora from the dangers of the treacherous moon.

As more and more harrowing obstacles spring up in their path, Lucy and Arik begin to wonder if the frontier moon itself could be consciously fighting back against their efforts to tame her. The two might just have to drop their differences and join forces if they want to fight their way to safety, and prove they deserve a place in the harshly beautiful world of Atropos.

Join the Alien Adoption Agency for an amazing adventure on the brand-new moon of Atropos!

The Spinster’s Swindle

Book Review Virginia Lee Blog

 

Arcane Tales, Book 2

Historical Romance, Victorian Romance

Release Date: November 5, 2021

Publisher: Steam Cat Press



Revenge is in her future. But falling for her enemy’s son is one fate this spiritualist could never have envisioned.

Playwright Maxwell Millerson would rather spend his days dreaming up stories than cleaning up his father’s messes. But a trendy renovation has the family’s gaming club on the brink of ruin, and not even Max’s imagination can conjure a way out. Desperate, he turns to the multi-talented—and alluringly audacious—Madame Xyla to help him spin gold from straw.

Lydia Weaver, professionally known as spiritualist Madame Xyla, has long sought revenge on the man responsible for her cousin’s imprisonment. When her enemy’s son visits her seance room seeking advice, Lydia leaps at the opportunity for vengeance—until Max’s easy charm and poetic words threaten to turn her plans upside-down.

As their friendship grows and they give way to their mutual attraction, Lydia and Max must weigh family duty with their hearts’ desires. And only when they confront old wounds and new feelings can a happy ending be in the cards.

The Scoundrel’s New Con

Arcane Tales, Book 1

He’s pulling the con of a lifetime. Unless she exposes the naked truth.

Conman Jack Weaver has his eyes on the prize. The arrogant Earl of Bardrick has offered five thousand pounds to anyone who can prove his castle is haunted. With money like that, Jack can ensure he’ll never end up on the streets or in prison again. And his spirit photography skills are just the trick needed to convince all of the earl’s houseguests to believe in something unseen.

Investigative journalist Tess Cochran believes in one thing: the truth. She’s not going to let phony ghosts and trick photographs swindle anyone, even a snobbish aristocrat like Bardrick. And she’s certainly not going to let herself be swayed by Jack Weaver’s charming smile and mischievous antics.

When Jack and Tess stumble upon one of the castle’s many secrets, they realize something nefarious lurks behind the earl’s competition. To solve the mystery, these rivals forge a reluctant partnership. As they strip down the facts, Jack and Tess begin to find that the deepest truths may be concealed in their hearts.

Having my best friend’s daughter walk in while another woman was on her knees pleasuring me isn’t something I planned. Quinn watches me finish. Without shame, I hold her gaze and never look away.

Now, all I can think about is Quinn and how easy it would be to give in to temptation. She wants me more than anyone has ever wanted me. She’s gorgeous, intelligent, and young. She also has a zest for life that I’ve somehow let pass me by.

As her boss, I see her every day. My resistance is slipping.

I’m a good man.

But even good men have their faults.

Quinn will be mine.

EXCERPT

The light from the pool table shone through the other side of the doorway. Even though it was partway shut, ample light filled the bathroom.
I held in my gasp.
My hand instinctively covered my mouth. My stomach bottomed out like I’d gone over the hill of a roller coaster. Jason—hot Jason with his shirt sleeves rolled up exposing his forearms, Jason. The same guy who I imagined eye-fucked me less than twenty minutes ago in my living room, Jason. He leaned against my bathroom counter, all sexy swagger. His one hand gripped the ledge of the marble, his strong thighs were spread out a little bit and his jeans were still mostly on—only exposing his massive cock and the skin along his hips and part of his ass.
Holy, holy, holy. For the love of all that’s holy, was I seeing things right? Am I drunk? Sleeping? Did I fall down the stairs and hit my head and I was really lying in a hospital bed hallucinating?
I blinked, hoping it would make things clearer.
Blinked again.
The devastatingly beautiful scene in front of me was still there.
What am I looking at?
Why couldn’t I tear my gaze away?
I sucked in a breath, taking stock of how I was feeling. The truth was…it was alluring. Impossible to look away. It was better than any filthy porn I’d ever watched. So painstakingly provocative that my clit was quivering with need.
He was fucking Kimber’s mouth.
She took him in her mouth so expertly, in and out. Her red lips fit around him magnificently—like they were meant for him. She pulled back on a pop and a string of saliva caught between the head of his cock and her cherry lips.
Fuck me.
It was raw beauty.
For a split second, it was me kneeling there and I grew wetter. He was beautiful down there. Solid and large. Perfection. Even with his cock covered in saliva from another woman’s mouth, Jason Richter was irresistible. Should I be ashamed that I was watching my father’s best friend get head? No fucking way. Jason’s hand was on Kimber’s head. He watched her lick him like a lollipop. When she took him all the way in her mouth, he let out a groan. Her lips touched his pelvis. Deep.
“Fuck yes,” he groaned in this husky ass voice I’d never heard before. Tingles floated from my nipples to my toes. He was beautiful everywhere. The way he stood. His sinful voice. Even the way he moved was beautiful.
I appreciated how he wasn’t coming in her mouth right away. Giving my ex-boyfriend a blow job usually lasted for two minutes, if that. But not Jason. Kimber had folded up a towel and was using it to cushion her knees—like she already knew she was going to be down there for a while.
Some women had all the luck.
I had no idea these two were a couple. Explains the flirting. I had no idea watching something like this in person would affect me so deeply. My toe nudged my tank top on the carpet. When did I drop that? I was a deer in the headlights, standing there in my bra and shorts, unable to look away.
Jason was in his element. His hips thrust in time to Kimber’s mouth as she took him in and out. I was in awe at how they worked together in perfect harmony—he’d thrust in and then she’d pull back. In and out. His mouth was part way open in bliss. I couldn’t stop myself from putting pressure on my clit with my free hand. I was dying. I was totally fucking my dildo tonight when this episode was over. Maybe even getting out my wand.
Jason bit down on his bottom lip and wrapped her hair around his fist. His thrusts started increasing in speed. My nipples zinged with electricity. Definitely getting out my wand. Most definitely. Was he going to come inside her mouth? Pull out? I didn’t even care. I wanted to see his beautiful face when he came. The nerves in my clit pulsed wildly—much more wildly than I’ve ever experienced in my life.
Jason grunted again, low and long, like a lion purring from his throat, making my own chest vibrate. “I’m going to come,” he said, in an equally low and seductive as fuck voice.
My phone lit up with a text message, illuminating me in the darkness of my room. Fuck. I didn’t look at it. I couldn’t miss Jason getting off. But there was no question that I was busted. I didn’t make an attempt to move. This was the dirtiest moment in my life. Jason’s gaze penetrated my soul and I imagined he was telling me all sorts of filthy things with those beautiful eyes. His lips went into a smirk before he muttered fuck in the sexiest voice I’d ever heard.
His deft hips flexed forward while he held Kimber’s head still and he filled her mouth with his glorious come.
All the while, never taking his eyes off mine.






AUTHOR BIO

She has traveled all over the world, but still has an extensive list of places she would love to visit. Anywhere near a sky-blue ocean will always be at the top of that list, although going back to South Africa’s Kruger National Park to view the wildlife is a close second.

She carries a bachelor’s degree in History with a concentration in Elementary Education from Metropolitan State College of Denver. While she loves children, she now fears teaching, which probably has something to do with being a stay-at-home mom.

SPARROW & HAWKE

Darius:
My attraction to her is wrong. I’m like the serpent in the Garden of Eden targeting Eve. Corrupting her.

I understand the serpent, though. When you’ve seen the worst of humanity, taken the brunt of evil, you crave purity and goodness. You want compassion and courage, even when it comes in a girl far too young and innocent for the likes of you.

Nell:
He says I’m too young and he’s too experienced.
He thinks I’m pure and he’s ruined.
He swears I don’t know enough and he knows too much.
He walks away because I’m fragile and he’s broken.

I want him, even though he can’t want me…
But he does.

TEASER



ABOUT MATILDA

Matilda is a Texas girl in love with a Philly boy who loves to write dirty books about two people who trip into love and fumble their way into a Filthy, Funny, Happily Ever After.

I live in Austin, with my husband, two crazy Chihuahuas and an even crazier cat. And I spend most of my day writing dirty romance books about older men who fall in love with younger women and make fools of themselves trying to win their hearts.

If you love Dark Romance, you’ve come to the wrong place. I don’t like dark heroes.

I like my hero to be successful, sweet, suave, sophisticated and kind— and then I want him to lose all his composure and game when he meets the heroine. I want him to turn into a bumbling idiot when he spots the girl of his dreams and revert to a teenage boy in a man’s body trying to win her.

I like my heroines to be witty, intelligent, and unshakeable—who could do just as well without a man—until the hero convinces her otherwise.

I write A LOT OF AGE GAP–because I LOVE AGE GAP ROMANCE. I’ve got no other excuse for it.

No matter what kind of story it is, my ladies are ADORED, and my endings are always Happily EVER AFTER, not HFN.

EXCERPT

“Freya.” The sound of Mom’s knuckles tapping against the door wakes me. “Do you plan on sleeping all day?”
“No, Mom,” I grumble, trying to push myself up to sit, but something has me pinned.
Confusion flits through me as I reach out my hand to discover a large warm body beside me. It only takes me a moment to realize who it is.
I roll over as best I can with his arm wrapped tightly around my waist. Sure enough, I’m met with a perfectly sculpted face beneath short, dark blond hair. His eyes are closed and his breathing is even. He’s still asleep, even with my mother knocking on the door and calling out to me.
Rush sleeps like the dead. I discovered this little tidbit of information months ago. Short of smacking the shit out of him, there’s very little that will wake him up.
Still I try, shaking his shoulders and whispering his name. “Rush, you need to get up. Now.”
The urgency of my words alone should have roused him, but he doesn’t budge. Instead, he tightens his grip on me, drawing me closer as my heart continues to race.
The sharp grinding of metal against metal has my eyes darting towards the door. A lump forms in my throat as my mother jiggles the doorknob. So much for respecting my privacy.
“Why is this door locked? Freya?” She knocks again. “Open the door. We need to talk.”
Fuck. It’s the last thing I want to do, especially with Rush sleeping so peacefully beside me.
Memories of last night race through my mind. Graham’s assault. Sumner rushing into the library to save me and then Rush. I can still feel his hands and mouth on me, turning my fear and disgust into pleasure in an act that was pure bliss and forbidden desire.
Because that is what Rush is for me. Forbidden desire that I’ve been forced to stomp down every time I was near him.
