Interview With Mari Carr
I sat down (virtually) with Mari Carr for a short interview. Mari Carr is a New York Times Bestselling Author. I LOVE her stories. Her Wild Irish series is one of my favorite series of all time. Mari Carr’s latest release is Full Moon, the second sexy contemporary in her delicious Second Chances series.
Cynthia Sax: What makes Jake sexy?
Mari Carr: Jake is my ultimate guy. He has definite alpha qualities, knows his way around the bedroom, but he’s also laid back with a good sense of humor. He’s a good listener and he’s patient. In my mind, he’d be an awesome dad too.
Cynthia Sax: What do you find especially exciting about Full Moon?
Mari Carr: Full Moon is actually the second book in the Second Chances series and I’m thrilled with the whole lot! As I get older, I’ve come to realize that happily ever after doesn’t always come when you expect it to. And sometimes it doesn’t take the first time. There are six friends in this series, women who are all standing at a crossroads in their lives, looking for different things. Josie is a single, working mother who got married too young to an unfaithful husband. She tried the marriage routine and it didn’t work out. She’s not anxious to introduce her son to any new men, who may or may not stick around. For her…she wants the occasional roll in the hay with no strings attached and Jake agrees to play the game her way…at first.
Cynthia Sax: How does Full Moon start?
Mari Carr: This story begins like all the books in the series do. With all six friends spending New Year’s Eve together at Laura’s house. They’re drinking wine and keeping each other company so they don’t have to ring in the new year alone. Zoey decides it’s ridiculous for six smart, attractive women to be alone, so she challenges each of them to set a goal for the coming year. To think of something they can work on that will ensure they won’t be in the same place next New Year’s. Josie’s goal involves the Howl List—12 sexual fantasies she plans to endulge in. She’d endured lackluster sex with her husband—her first and only—for years. While she’s not looking for forever or commitment, she does want to broaden her sexual horizons. So she creates the list, one adventure a month on the night of the full moon for every month of the year.
Cynthia Sax: What is your favorite line from Full Moon?
Mari Carr: My favorite scene in the book is where Jake finally convinces Josie he wants more than casual sex from her. A relationship is a scary thing to Josie, but Jake’s humor wears her down.
“I want the rest of your full moons.”
“The list is twelve months’ worth.”
He nodded, seemingly unfazed. What exactly was he asking for? A year’s worth of sex? Or more?
“Give me your last name, your phone number and then show me the list.”
She hesitated, started to refuse him. Then she realized it was pointless. He’d won them all the very first night, but her stubbornness had prevented her from seeing that. “My name is Josie Jacobson. But you know that. You’ve seen my credit card.”
He grinned, not bothering to deny the truth. “I still wanted you to give it to me.”
“Does that mean you looked up my number?”
“It’s unlisted.”
She scowled, pretending to be angry. “You cheater. Give me your cell.”
He handed it to her without asking why. She was continually touched by his trust in her. She opened his contacts and added her name and number to the list. “There. That’s me.”
He glanced at the number, then pushed the button. Her phone rang and she laughed when he said, “Just checking.”
“Now.” Jake held out his hand. “Last thing. Hand the list over.”
Thank you, Mari Carr, for joining us today!

Sometimes it’s not just the tide that rises…
Second Chances, Book 2
In the two years since her divorce was finalized, Josie Jacobson’s life has become one long, boring routine. Work, home, repeat. She has her hands full as a single parent, and while she’s not looking for a serious relationship, she sure wouldn’t mind getting laid.
When her friend, Zoey, challenges her to make a New Year’s resolution for a second chance at happiness, Josie goes one better and creates the “Howl List”. Every full moon, she will indulge in a different sexual fantasy. Right at the top? Sex without strings.
Fate leads her to the Blue Moon bar in January. After all, what better place to howl? And when she meets Jake Stewart, the sexy bartender, and engages in some red-hot sex with a stranger, her year seems to be off to a great start.
At least, until Jake declares he wants all her full moons…
Warning: This is NOT the shifter story you are looking for. While the heroine howls during the full moon, she does it in naked, human-form only. Sorry—no wolves, but there is a really sexy bartender and lots of red-hot fantasies.

Wayback Wednesday – This Enchanted Demon
Augustine, the villain in the first two Demon Chronicles stories (Demon on the Dance Floor and Demon Of Convenience), is a very aggressive, very sexual demon. Finding a woman strong enough for him was a challenge.
Gloriana is as sexual as Augustine is. She’s defiant, strong, has exhibitionist tendencies, and she’s able to stand up to her big, bad demon.
I love them together!
By Cynthia Sax
Now Available From Changeling Press
To save his sister, Augustine has to bond with a vessel. He approaches the sorceress shielding the vessels, expecting a decrepit old crone. What he finds is a beautiful woman with a fondness for exhibitionism and a sexual appetite to match his own.Gloriana isn’t a sorceress. She’s a vessel, her true identity hidden from demons by the magic pendant she wears. Knowing the risks of bonding without love, she refuses to settle for anything less, even if it means losing the demon she adores to the vessel he needs.

The Seen Trilogy – The Power Of Fantasy
A reading buddy asked me how He Watches Me can be so freakin’ sexy if Blaine doesn’t touch Anna.
Great question! There are a lot of things a couple can do without actually touching skin to skin. A man, especially a powerful dominant man, can tell his lover how to touch herself or how he’d like to touch her. There are toys, many, many wonderful toys.
But, best of all, there’s fantasy. Anna has a great imagination. Although she’s a virgin, she’s read erotic novels and watched adult films. She knows what is possible and what she’s interested in. She shares these fantasies with Blaine which helps him please her even more in He Touches Me and He Claims Me.
Don’t underestimate the power of an active imagination!

Interview With Tina Donahue
I sat down (virtually) with Tina Donahue for a short interview. Tina Donahue writes hot erotic romances for Ellora’s Cave and her latest release is Illicit Intent, Book Three in her wonderful Appointment with Pleasure series.
Cynthia Sax: What makes Joel and Guy sexy?
Tina Donahue: Their craving for Piper as a woman they not only hunger for, but one they like and respect before their carnal games. They accept her for who she is. Piper isn’t beautiful by any means. She certainly doesn’t consider herself drool-worthy even if Joel and Guy do. I believe that’s because they like her personality first of all…they enjoy her as a friend. A woman they can talk to and share their dreams with. They’re alphas, sure, (especially between the sheets, or in the shower, or the Jacuzzi) but Piper’s sweet vulnerability make them want to give her all that they can…to protect and cherish her. Now, that’s sexy.
Cynthia Sax: Will you be writing more stories in your Appointment with Pleasure series?
Tina Donahue: Illicit Intent is book three in my Appointment with Pleasure series. There will definitely be more books. I love the characters, including Ronnie, the lady who owns the escort agency and Alexa, the young woman whose wicked love affair with Hunt started it all. In book one, Alexa was Magique, a call girl who changed Hunt’s world. Unable to resist her, Hunt didn’t stop until she was his alone. Wow.
Cynthia Sax: What one piece of advice would you give new writers?
Tina Donahue: Learn your craft. Don’t submit anything to an agent or a publisher unless you’re absolutely certain it’s the best it can possibly be. Editors won’t teach you how to write. If your manuscript is a mess, they won’t take the time to whip it into shape. There’s simply too many other writers who know their craft and will make their editor’s life easy. No matter what critics say about anyone being able to write a romance, don’t you believe it. It’s extremely difficult to get emotions down on a page and make them believable. Sex scenes are also hard (excuse the pun) to write. There’s only so many ways someone can do ‘it’. You have to be extremely inventive while also making it realistic and romantic. No easy task.
Cynthia Sax: What do you love about writing contemporary erotic romances?
Tina Donahue: I write contemporary, historical, ménage, suspense, paranormal, so I’ll tell you what I most love about writing romance—any type of romance. The deep POV, getting inside my characters’ heads and hearts. I love the HEAs, especially after my characters have gone through so much to be together. I’ve had reviewers and fans say they were so moved by my stories and characters, they’ve wept, laughed, sighed – they recalled the stories months after they read them. That’s the best gift of all. To know you’ve moved someone. That your characters were real enough that the reader didn’t want the story to end.
Thank you, Tina Donahue, for joining us today!
Tina Donahue’s Website: http://www.tinadonahue.com/
*****************************************************************************
What’s your wildest erotic wish?
For Piper, that’s easy. Two alpha males who ravish her and find her curves beyond luscious. She knows her type isn’t for every man—certainly not Guy and Joel, right? Guy’s tall, dark and sinfully virile. Joel’s blond and bronzed. They’re freaking sex gods, escorts her friend hired so Piper’s thirtieth birthday is unforgettable.
Their carnal games awaken Piper’s sensuality, while her voluptuous figure and sweet vulnerability fuel both men’s animal hunger.
One evening of decadent pleasure isn’t enough. Piper aches to perform ménage acts with them for clients who like curvy women. A wicked idea, except for her family’s ties with law enforcement, the threat of exposure.
Is her threesome worth the risk?

The Seen Trilogy – Summer Reading
The Seen Trilogy is definitely a summer read.
The story is set during a very hot L.A. summer, a summer so hot, Anna hops the sexy neighbor’s fence and skinny dips in his pool. The flowers are in bloom, their fragrance hanging in the air. The grass is green and lush between Anna’s toes. Clothing is optional.
That The Seen Trilogy is a serial, a larger story split into three novellas, is perfect for summer also. If you’re spending a lazy weekend by the lake, you can read the entire story in one sitting, or if you’re crunched for time, hosting BBQs or running the kids back and forth from camp, you can read one novella at a time.

Interview With Sara Jay
I sat down (virtually) with Sara Jay for a short interview. Sara Jay writes hot erotic romances for Changeling Press and her latest release is Hard as a Rock.
Cynthia Sax: What makes Canna sexy?
Sara Jay: Canna is gorgeously green with curves and cuteness, but she is also happy to play with almost anyone at the Pleasure Club! Patrons call her the club “poltergeist” because they get played with by what they think is a ghost. She loves to stay invisible as she teases patrons and gets them off. Basalt is an enormous stone warrior with sexy, long black hair and matching skin that drives Canna crazy.
Cynthia Sax: What excites you about Hard as a Rock?
Sara Jay: Several aspects of Basalt were inspired by my husband, so this story is my gift to him. It’s already really exciting to read my books aloud to him, but this one is going to be the best yet! Plus, it’s being released on our anniversary; how could it be more perfect than that?
Cynthia Sax: Where is Hard as a Rock set?
Sara Jay: Hard As A Rock takes place mostly in a futuristic sex club, where there are life-like human appendages, machines and rides made from a revolutionary material called Skintex. It makes the attractions feel real. There’s also a filtration system that keeps the place clean and disease-free—but it’s also in the future where most of those kinds of worries are gone anyway, which is nice!
Cynthia Sax: Does someone in Hard as as Rock have a secret?
Sara Jay: Oh, yes. The reader learns the secret within the prologue, but poor Canna doesn’t get it until nearly the end of the book! It’s a total happily ever after for her, I promise. She’s just going to have some conflict and some soul-wrenching yearning on the way!
Cynthia Sax: What one piece of advice would you give new writers?
Sara Jay: I know it’s said often, but get to that page every single day. It makes a total difference, even if you only write a sentence or two. If I promise myself I’ll sit down and write for just ten minutes, it always turns into an hour or more of very productive writing time.
Cynthia Sax: What do you love about writing paranormal erotic romances?
Sara Jay: What’s not to love about hot creatures? 😉 From dragons to elves to gargoyles… Well, life is a whole lot more interesting with them in it! I also like making my characters have powers, or turning the tables on situations that humans would normally encounter. For example, in my book Nobody Rides for Free, three bikers think it’s their lucky day when they run across a seemingly helpless young woman in the desert. They have no idea that she’s an insanely strong faery looking for some fun—and they’re really the helpless ones next to her! In Hard As a Rock, there’s a sinister man who hopes to capture Canna and make her his—but again, he’s human, and he just underestimates the power of the supernatural.
Thank you, Sara Jay, for joining us today!
Sara Jay’s Website: http://sarajayserotica.wordpress.com/
*****************************************************************************
Canna, an impish, flirty faery, loves to service just about any client who enters The Pleasure Club, a futuristic sex club. But although the clientele is satisfied, Canna aches for the impossible. A sexy, larger-than-life gargoyle statue that happens to be a simple a décor item.
Basalt has spent centuries wanting Canna all to himself. Though his nightly visits train her to be his perfect lover, will she still want him when she finds out what he does during the day?

I received the cover for Warlord Reunited!
Warlord Reunited is the romance between Berke, the eldest Warlord, and Elle (or Ellie as he calls her), the bounty hunter boss lady (grins). Solar cycles ago, they bonded. Then Berke had a I-must-protect-my-gerel-at-all-costs macho meltdown and they parted. (shakes head) You know Berke. He doesn’t understand women… at all.
I don’t yet have a release date for Warlord Reunited. We’re still completing edits.
