Awww… Izzy Szyn mentioned Sinful Rewards on Liz Castillo’s online home.

Here’s the snippet…
Liz: What’s your favorite under-appreciated novel?
Izzy: Ohh crap, thinking. Hmmm, hard to think of one. I think it has to be series. Cynthia Sax’s Sinful Rewards, was like reading a soap opera.
Liz: Oh yes, I love Cynthia Sax too!
Seeking Vector
A cyborg with a secret… A female seeking the truth…
Vector, the C Model captain of the Freedom, is a cyborg many warriors wish to emulate. He fights fiercely, leads with honor, has earned the respect and loyalty of his crew. But no being, not even a cyborg, is perfect. Since arriving at the Homeland, Vector has been hiding a dark truth about his past. If his secret is exposed, he could lose everything – his position, his ship, and his life.
Kasia excels at uncovering secrets. Half a lifespan ago, her curiosity placed her on the Humanoid Alliance’s kill list. Now she has accessed information the cyborg council would prefer remain hidden. Their warriors are hunting her and won’t rest until she’s dead.
When Vector arrives on her battle station, all grim determination, gray skin, and bulging muscles, Kasia knows he has been sent to kill her. That doesn’t stop her from wanting the dominant cyborg. She senses the savage nature under the male’s controlled exterior, sees the mysteries in his brilliant blue eyes, craves the roughness of his touch. She will risk all she has to experience his embrace.
Kasia braved the cyborg council’s ire for a reason. If she doesn’t convince Vector to act on the information she uncovered, the enemy could destroy his home planet and render every cyborg in the universe immobile.
Can a doubting C Model warrior learn to trust and to love before it is too late?
Seeking Vector is Book 10 in the Cyborg Sizzle series and is a STAND-ALONE story.
It is also a Cyborg SciFi Romance.

The Story Behind Tattoos
I LOVE hearing the stories behind tattoos. My tattooed heroes always have a good reason for getting the tattoos they have.
Logan Ross, the sexy financier hero of One Night With My Billionaire Master, has a dragon tattoo, winding up his left side.
It is somewhat similar to this one.
Why did he get a dragon tattoo? As he says, “Bulls make money when the market goes up. Bears make money when the market does down. Dragons find treasure in every market.”
Hawke, the tattooed bad boy biker in Sinful Rewards, has a barbed wire tattoo around his right bicep. Why? Because the tattoo was in memory of his best friend and losing him was like losing his right arm. The two men were inseparable.
Rage, the cyborg hero in Releasing Rage, has a tattoo also. His model number is inked on his cheek. This reinforces that he’s viewed as a machine, as a product to be coded, not as the living, breathing being he is. Every being looking at his face will know what he is.
Do you have a tattoo? What is the story behind it?

Note: If you purchased Mastered 2, you already have this story.
One night. No one must know.
This is the text I sent Logan Ross this morning. The billionaire financier is my father’s number one nemesis and has been pursuing me for months. He wants to own me, completely, promising exquisite pleasure balanced by equally intense pain, vowing to dominate me, to show me wicked things a virgin like myself shouldn’t be interested in.
But I am extremely interested, and I’ll risk everything—my job, my family, my future—to experience one night of total submission with this powerful Dom.
Will one night be enough for both of us?

Sinful Rewards 12 – Bee’s Meltdown
One of the questions I receive from readers is ‘Why does Bee completely melt down over the condom breaking?”
This statement is key for our heroine
“Having seen the tabloid talk shows and lived the reality, I know no man wants an oops baby.”
The oops is important. She feels, if she’d been planned, her father might have stayed, her mother wouldn’t have struggled financially and would have been accepted by the residents of their small town.
This is why Bee plans everything, why she planned her possible life with Nicolas, why she planned her career, why she plans even her outfits for the day.
After she meets Hawke, she continues to plan, except her plans include him. That his job can be random and he’s okay with that shows her that random events CAN be okay. The surprise element of her daily missions also trains her to deal with unplanned events (but notice how she likes the routine of receiving them every day).
All of this is preparing her for the big oops moment in Sinful Rewards 12. Yes, she melts down (this IS what she believes to be her worst nightmare coming true) but then she picks herself off the floor (literally) and deals directly with the situation. She wouldn’t have done that in Sinful Rewards 1. She would have ran, avoiding the situation.

The thrilling conclusion to the Billionaires and Bikers series!
One tiny mistake turns Bee Carter’s worst fears into a terrifying reality. She knows she isn’t alone. The sexy, honorable man she adores stands by her side, willing to sacrifice his freedom to ease her concerns.
But she yearns for more than he is offering. She wants a partner who will love her as fiercely as she loves him, who will say the words and mean them, and someone who will choose her because this is what he desires more than anything else, not merely out of a misguided sense of duty.
Will saying no to the man she loves earn Bee unbearable heartache or will she finally get the forever she craves?

Sinful Rewards 12 – Wine Glasses
Here’s a snippet from Sinful Rewards 12
“Should I open the wine?” I attempt to distract them.
“S’il vous plait,” Francois purrs, back to being his charming self.
I stare at him blankly. Is that a yes?
“You truly don’t know any French.” Nicolas’s eyes gleam. “Open the wine, Bee.”
“This is America.” I extract wineglasses from the kitchen cabinets. “I shouldn’t need to know any French.”
“You don’t know wine either.” Francois moves beside me. “This glass is correct.” He taps the stem of the glass with a wider opening and large bowl. “These two glasses are not.” He returns them to the cabinet and chooses two different glasses. “The wine I brought you is red.”
My face heats. I had no idea that different wines required different glasses.
This scene is tiny yet so meaningful. Bee has tried her best to fit into the world Nicolas and other wealthy people belong to but there is so much to learn and she misses the small details like which wine glass to use. She realizes that she won’t ever fully fit in. She’ll always be looked at as an outsider by some people.
She doesn’t fit fully into Hawke’s world either but the difference is that Hawke and his team are willing to teach her. They were all outsiders once, not having been born into the military, and they know what being an outsider is like.
Re: Wine glasses and wine
The shape of a wine glass DOES affect taste.
“It all comes down to two things — the area of our mouths that the wine hits first, and the amount of air exposure the wine gets before we drink it.
Because different areas of our mouths are sensitive to varying degrees of sweet, sour, salt, bitter and umami tastes, the wine needs to hit the right part of your mouth first to taste good. That’s where a glass shaped specifically to target the area of the mouth that corresponds with the wine’s flavour profile comes in handy.
Secondly, the shape of the glass dictates the wine’s exposure to air — you may have noticed how red wine glasses are much wider than glasses designed for white wines. That’s because red wines are muskier and more aromatic, and therefore the smell of the wine — enhanced by the swirling of the large, bowl-like glass — plays as much a role in your enjoyment of the wine as the actual taste itself. On the contrary, white wine glasses are designed to be more narrow, which keeps the wine cooler for longer — key for proper flavour in whites.”
As Steven Kolpan, a professor and chair of wine studies at The Culinary Institute of America, notes “The difference can be so striking, in fact, that… I’ve seen people refuse to believe that they were tasting the same wine in different glasses.”

Sinful Rewards 12 – Hawke’s New Tattoo
Here’s a snippet from Sinful Rewards 12
Ed takes a step away from us. “What do you think?”
Hawke bends over the small table. “That’s fine work.”
“It’s one of my best.” The artist beams.
“Let me see.” I wiggle in Hawke’s lap. He turns my palm upward and places his hand in mine. My breath catches. It can’t be. I close my eyes, count to five, open them.
It is.
Belinda is inked on the ring finger of his left hand, a band of letters declaring to the world that he belongs to me. “Hawke.” My eyes prick with unshed tears.
“She doesn’t hate it,” Ed observes.
“Hate it?” I carefully touch my military man’s fingertips, staring at my very visual claim on him. “I love it.” I love him. “You did this for me?”
Hawke nods. Of course he did this for me. That’s my name on his body.
Forever.
I tremble, unable to believe this, yet the proof is in front of me, permanent proof in vivid black ink. “It’s on your ring finger.” I glance at his face. He must know this. “People will think you’re married.”
“Good.” Hawke smiles. “Because in my heart, I am.” He brushes a strand of hair away from my face with his right hand. “You’re my girl. You will always be my girl.”
“You’re committed.” I gaze at his finger. A tattooed wedding band with my name on it is a commitment.
I don’t have a picture of Hawke’s tattoo but it looks something like this.
It isn’t truly a band because the tattoo doesn’t encircle Hawke’s finger completely. Why? Because the skin on the palm-side of the finger wears quickly and is less likely to take ink.
A tattooed ring is a great solution for people who don’t like to wear rings or people who can’t wear rings due to their jobs/hobbies (in many jobs, such as any around machinery, wearing a ring is dangerous).

Sinful Rewards 12 – Bee’s Engagement Ring
Here’s a snippet from Sinful Rewards 12
“Everyone knows I’m your girl.”
“I want you to be more than that, love.” Hawke uncurls the fingers of his left hand, the finger tattooed with my name covered with white gauze, and he reveals a distinctive sapphire blue leather ring box with an HW etched on the top.
My breath catches. He bought the ring from Harry Winston, jeweler to the stars.
“I want you to be my wife.” Hawke opens the box, and the room spins merrily around me. There are diamonds, diamonds, and more diamonds, the sparkle almost blinding me. A massive round center stone is framed by diamonds and set on a diamond band. The stones are so closely set, I don’t see the precious metal.
“You like it.” His voice is husky.
“I love it.” I smile, light-headed.
Here’s a picture of Bee’s ring.
You can find more details here http://www.harrywinston.com/en/one-round-brilliant-diamond-micropav%C3%A9-engagement-ring
Bee loves sparkle. She’s also a classic girl, enjoying fashions that can be worn for years. This ring combines both of these attributes. Hawke knew she’d love it! It will be a ring she’ll wear happily every day for the rest of her life.

Sinful Rewards 12 – Bee’s Reward Outfit
(Grins) One of the fun things about Sinful Rewards is sharing all of the delicious fashions. Bee receives her reward. Let’s see what she receives.
I brush the brown tissue paper aside, revealing light blue tulle. My fingers tremble as I shake out the fabric. Clusters of pink and dark gray glitter embellish the Mary Katrantzou blouse. “This is so beautiful.” I hold it up to me. “And sheer.” I lift my eyebrows. “Your men will see everything.”
“It matches my eyes.” Hawke’s voice is husky.
Here’s a picture of this beautiful blouse.
And the link to the details http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/507348/Mary_Katrantzou/glitter-embellished-tulle-top
What else does she receive?
“Oh my God. That wasn’t all of it.” I pull out a pair of black Stella McCartney Jasmine wool-twill straight-leg pants. “Look at this tailoring.” I show him the seams.
He feigns amazement, humoring me. The man has no concept of fashion.
Here’s a picture of her pants.
And the link to the details http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/500863/Stella_McCartney/jasmine-wool-twill-straight-leg-pants
No outfit is complete without shoes.
“All I need is shoes.” I glance in the box. “You sent those too.” I gaze at the Gianvito Rossi sleek black point-toe flats. “I’m never wearing the ballerina flats again.”
“The shoes have buckles.” Hawke flicks one of his thick fingers at the delicate ankle strap. “So they won’t fall off when you ride with me.”
Here’s a picture of her shoes (which I absolutely love).

Sinful Rewards 12 – After A Love Triangle
I’m at Crystal Blogs Books, asking this question
“When you read a love triangle, would you like the unsuccessful hero to get his own story, to eventually fall in love with a heroine who loves him back?
Or would you prefer that he maintain his love for the heroine who didn’t choose him?”
I’d love to hear your thoughts here
