Second Excerpt For Sinful Rewards 3
This post has adult content. If you are under the age of eighteen years old or sensitive to adult language/situations, please do not read this post.
The third novella in my sizzling hot Sinful Rewards serial releases September 16th. Last week, I shared the first excerpt. (You can read it here http://tasteofcyn.com/2014/09/01/first-excerpt-for-sinful-rewards-3/ ) Today, I’m sharing the second excerpt!
A very large man separates from the pack, and my words fade. He’s backlit, his face and form in darkness, but I’d recognize that blunt buzz cut, square chin, broad shoulders, and confident swagger anywhere.
“Hawke,” I whisper, my toes wiggling in the practical flats I was forced to wear. My lack of heels makes him appear even larger, more dominant and manly.
“Sweetheart.” He cups my chin with his rough fingers and tilts my face upward. Our gazes meet and hold, time stopping, the noise and lights fading. There’s only the two of us.
I’ll have sex with this mountain of a man tonight. Decades-entrenched fear battles newly formed desire. The temptation to turn, to run from him, from this fate, increases with each heartbeat. I know of only one way to quiet my mind, to ensure passion wins. “Kiss me,” I whisper.
Hawke doesn’t hesitate. He swoops down and claims my lips, the strength of his embrace stealing my breath. I gasp. He surges inside me, his tongue tangling, tumbling with mine. He tastes of whiskey and chocolate, a burning sweetness I could quickly become addicted to.
My knees tremble, and he straps his arms around my body, holding me upright, pressing me to him. I forget everything, my doubts, our audience, my friend Cyndi, losing myself in him, in the rasp of his stubble-covered chin against my skin, the stroke of his tongue along mine, the hardness of his body.
Hawke lifts me higher, fitting me into his fit form. My curves flatten against his muscle. My feet dangle above the pavement. Never have I felt this delicate, this cherished.
I grip his shoulders, clinging to him, relishing his strength and size. This is right, this kiss, this night, this man. I’ll give him everything, expecting only pleasure in return, forgoing forever for one evening.
A man whistles, breaking the spell. Other men join him, hooting and hollering, their unruly behavior heating my cheeks. Hawke releases my lips and pushes my face into his cotton-covered chest, bending over my smaller form as though to shield me from them.
“I’m glad you came,” he murmurs, his voice low and deep and arousing. I wiggle closer to him, my nipples pressing against the red silk of my corset. He strokes my loose-flowing hair, his big hands gentle, almost reverent.
“I almost didn’t,” I share quietly, not wanting anyone else to hear us.

Interview With Lexi Post
I sat down (virtually) with Lexi Post for a short interview. Lexi Post’s latest release is Cruise into Eden, a SciFi Erotic Romance set on a cruise ship. Woot!!! The dear wonderful hubby and I LOVE cruising!
Cynthia Sax: What excites you about Cruise into Eden?
Lexi Post: What excites me the most about this story is the social constructs of the planet Eden These are only touched upon in this book, but from what is included, the reader can see this is a very different planet. For example, to wear clothes on Eden is to be rude. All women must have at least two husbands. All criminals are banished outside the city walls to live or die on their own. And in order for Eden men to receive portal chips, they must prove themselves morally worthy. Then there are other planet-wide rules that are specific to choosing, interacting and bonding with women. These were primarily written by an Earth woman who visited Eden back in the 19th Century. Her name was Emily Dickinson.
Cynthia Sax: Where did you get the idea for Cruise into Eden?
Lexi Post: I got the idea for this story from an Emily Dickinson poem called “Wild Nights! Wild Nights!” In some ways, this is not unique for me since I write erotic romance inspired by classic literature; however, I usually choose short stories and create a whole new modern day story that generally runs about 300 pages. One evening over drinks, my former editor challenged me to write short. When I told my agent this, she suggested I use a poem because I had yet to write a short romance. The poem, “Wild Nights! Wild Nights!” stood out from thousands of Dickinson poems because its subject matter is so passionate as opposed to what the poet is best known for which is all aspects of death. Since I like putting opposites together, such as classic literature and erotic romance, when I read the poem I just knew that Eden had to be another planet and Emily Dickinson, the recluse, must have visited it. And so not only was a novella born, but a whole series.
Cynthia Sax: Where is Cruise into Eden set?
Lexi Post: I set the story on a nude Caribbean cruise. This was necessary. Since Edenists are used to being naked, I had to bring them somewhere where the heroine would expect them to be so, otherwise she might run screaming in the opposite direction. That meant I had to find a way to get my heroine, who had never even thought of being nude in front of other people, onto this cruise. Luckily, these cruises aren’t actually called “nude” cruises. They are called “clothing optional” cruises which means that it was perfectly understandable for Erin to board the ship expecting to wear clothes throughout the trip. It was very freeing for me as well as the writer because I didn’t have to continually describe what everyone was wearing. They were wearing nothing! I found this an exciting setting because there are many rules to a nude cruise which were fun to incorporate for a realistic feel. Also, it was great to show Erin’s struggle with being nude in public, and the heroes, Ware and Nase, being completely baffled by her shyness.
Cynthia Sax: Is Cruise into Eden a series and will you be writing more stories in this series?
Lexi Post: Cruise into Eden is the first in the Eden series. I wanted the first book to not only show Erin getting used to being nude, but also show one way in which the men of Eden connect with their chosen women from Earth. The next book in the series Unexpected Eden, will also be based on an Emily Dickinson poem, but except for the first chapter, the entire book will take place on the planet. Ware, Nase, and Erin will be a part of this one as well, but the focus is on three Eden men, Jahl, Sandale, and Khaos and their woman. I’m hoping that my readers will fall in love with Eden as much as I have.
Thank you, Lexi Post, for joining us today!

Interview With Zenobia Renquist
I sat down (virtually) with Zenobia Renquist for a short interview. Zenobia Renquist’s latest release is Wine Service (Professional Courtesy 1), a Contemporary Erotica with BDSM AND Menage.
Cynthia Sax: Where did you get the idea for Wine Service?
Zenobia Renquist: The theme of the series actually led to the idea for this story. I wanted a non-secretary-esque job where a woman might find herself entangled in a sexual relationship during work hours. A few ideas came to mind, but hotel housekeeper got the first spot in the line up. I was going to start with a different story about a hypno-therapist and his IT person but it grew to the point of becoming its own series. Plus I didn’t want to start two series with hypnosis. The other being the High Relief Series.
Cynthia Sax: How does Wine Service start?
Zenobia Renquist: Lexie is about to punch the clock and head home after a long day of running to and fro doing her job. She’s ready to strip down and put her feet up but a coworker and friend asks for a favor—cover the last hour of her shift because she has a family emergency. Lexie agrees and ends up being sent to a VIP’s room on a mystery errand.
I started the story there because most readers can sympathize with the end-of-the-day clock watch feeling. A lot of readers can also sympathize with being steps away from the time clock when the boss (or someone else) clock-blocks (teehee) with another task or an urgent favor or something that will delay escape.
Cynthia Sax: Where is Wine Service set?
Zenobia Renquist: The story is set in an unnamed five-star hotel in an undisclosed city. I’m not big on details like that, mostly because I don’t want some hotel coming after me. The setting is exciting because one of the hotel housekeepers is indulging in some extracurricular activity while on the clock and constantly scared she’ll get caught.
Cynthia Sax: Is Wine Service part of a series and will you be writing more stories in this series?
Zenobia Renquist: Most definitely. The titles are stand alone but some of the characters will know each other. For instance, Lexie’s boss Franceska is the aunt of the main character in the next book I have planned.
Thank you, Zenobia Renquist, for joining us today!

She offers satisfaction above and beyond what is requested.
Lexie’s job as a housekeeper at a five-star hotel doesn’t normally include the unique and risqué form of room service that important hotel guest Mr. Malena has requested, nor the generous tip he’s offered. Lexie can’t resist, and what should have been a one-time thing turns into an introduction into the sensual world of customer satisfaction. She finds much enjoyment in her “work,” but is it worth risking her job?

Sinful Rewards 1
Cynthia Sax
Belinda “Bee” Carter is a good girl; at least, that’s what she tells herself. And a good girl deserves a nice guy—just like the gorgeous and moody billionaire Nicolas Rainer. He is everything she wants in a man.
Or so she thinks, until she takes a look through her telescope and sees a naked, tattooed man on the balcony across the courtyard. Hawke is mysterious, the bad boy she knows will bring only heartbreak. He has been watching her, and that makes him all the more enticing.
But when a mysterious and anonymous text message dares her to do something bad, she must decide if she is really the good girl she has always claimed to be, or if she’s willing to risk everything for her secret fantasy of being watched.
Is her mystery man the reclusive billionaire with a wild side or the darkly dangerous bad boy?

First Excerpt For Sinful Rewards 3
This post has adult content. If you are under the age of eighteen years old or sensitive to adult language/situations, please do not read this post.
The third novella in my sizzling hot Sinful Rewards serial releases September 16th. Today, I’m sharing the first excerpt! Yay!!!
Nicolas listens to the caller, asking more questions than he answers, the communication blunt, to the point, wasting no time. As he talks about financing and interest rates, citing figures in the millions, he strokes my side, not venturing any higher or any lower, seeming content with this innocent touching.
We have time, he’s telling me. He’s not going anywhere. I’m grateful for this slower pace, as I suspect any ground Nicolas conquers, he keeps, and I’m not ready to be completely captured, not yet.
He stretches out his legs, his expensive leather shoes placed flat on the carpeted floor of the limousine. Nicolas’s eyelids lower, his eyelashes thick, his face softening. He resembles a sleek black panther, appearing slumberous yet ready to pounce at any minute. His fingertips swirl lazy circles into my skin.
He ends his call and tosses the phone on the seat. Another man might apologize for the interruption. Nicolas says nothing. He’s a successful real estate developer. Interruptions are part of his world, of my world now. It shouldn’t bother me.
But it does. . .a little. My mom always put her work demands before her time with me, needing the job at the diner to pay our bills. I want to come first with someone, unrealistic as this dream is.
“My boss is announcing my promotion to full time today.” I share my work news with Nicolas. I’ll no longer be temporary, and he, of all people, will understand what this means to me. He prefers to build long-term relationships, maintaining them forever. This is one of the things I like. . .love about him.
“Is he?” Nicolas cups my chin and turns my face toward his. The vibrations under my ass fade, the limousine rolling to a stop. We’ve arrived, but I don’t want to leave him. Judging by the gleam in his eyes and the intent way he’s looking at me, Nicolas feels the same way.
“He is. I know he is. I organized the party yesterday.” I give Nicolas a nervous smile, my stomach fluttering with excitement. He’ll kiss me now. I’m certain of this. His embrace will be demanding, possessive, as forceful, as consuming as his personality, erasing all thoughts of other men, especially tattooed former marines. “There will be cupcakes and coffee,” I continue to babble.
“Bee.” Nicolas traps my face between his beautiful hands, his fingers soft yet unyielding, preventing all escape.
I swallow hard. “Yes?”
“Let me be the first to congratulate you.” He draws me closer. My gaze meets his, the passion in his brown eyes captivating me. This passion is for me, ordinary, broke-ass Belinda Carter.
Nicolas dips his head and skims his lips over mine, slowly, gently, a brief teasing caress. His breath brushes across my cheeks, his warmth coaxing the fire inside me higher. The scent of mint and expensive cologne tickles my nostrils, filling my senses with him. I lean into my billionaire, clutching his shoulders, eager for more, wishing to lose myself in his embrace, to forget all other kisses.
Nicolas pulls away from me, and his gaze searches my face. I don’t know what he’s looking for. His fingers remain curved around my cheeks, holding me in place. All I have is his for the taking.
I want him to take, I want him to kiss me again, deeper, longer this time, imprinting his being on my soul, finally igniting the passion simmering inside me. I lick my bottom lip, anxious for this claiming, for my foolish disappointment to dissipate.
Nicolas’s eyes darken. “I like to be the first in everything.”
