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.

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!

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’m at TRS Parties today with my fellow Changeling writers
talking about billionaire tiger shifters, curvaceous rebel hackers and body-splitting aliens.
Remember to enter the contest (top left hand corner)! The odds of winning four Changeling stories are VERY good.
By Cynthia Sax
Now Available From Changeling Press
Billionaire tiger shifter Nikhil Baagh has learned to subdue his savage nature. He no longer chases enemies through the city streets, maintaining justice with his teeth and claws. The exotic CEO follows human laws now, laying a sophisticated trap for the curvaceous hacker daring to illegally access his technological empire.
Nikhil then takes one sniff of Violet’s delectable scent and all of his most animalistic instincts stir. The plus-sized rebel isn’t merely his prey. She’s his mate, and he hunts her — tracking Violet through the social jungle, intent on claiming her permanently.
When an uptight tiger shifter meets a no-rules hacker, chaos reigns, empires fall, and old enemies resurface. Can Nikhil embrace his wild side and risk everything for love?

Interview With Denysé Bridger
I sat down (virtually) with Denysé Bridger for a short interview. Denysé Bridger writes hot erotic romances for Ellora’s Cave and her latest release is Reckless Assignation.
Cynthia Sax: What excites you about Reckless Assignation?
Denysé Bridger: Several things make this particular story exciting and fun. To start with, it’s set during Halloween, and that is also part of the backdrop for the seduction and adventure, as well as the lesson being taught to the heroine. This story is a bit different from many I write in that we have an older, worldly hero, and a younger, idealistic heroine. He’s given up a dangerous but exciting lifestyle/work, and she’s growing into a strong and confident woman as their relationship deepens and grows.
Cynthia Sax: Where is Reckless Assignation set?
Denysé Bridger: The setting is an abandoned, crumbling hotel, one that is reputed to be haunted by the ghosts of murdered people. It’s exciting because in the opening scene we establish that the heroine is being lured by the hero – for a sensual seduction, but also as a way for him to teach her the dangers of being led by her curiosity.
He’s gone to endless trouble to plan a romantic tryst that is filled with surprises, and lots of atmosphere. The trappings of Halloween were a lot of fun to write, creating the spooky atmosphere with oil lamps, candles, cobwebs, things that go bump in the night… The hero also has plans to introduce his partner to some new ways to have fun, and when he first makes contact with her, he blindfolds her, ties her to a chair and things get hot very quickly.
The thriller element comes into play when the happy couple is visited by someone from the hero’s past, someone with a deadly score to settle. That’s also where the paranormal element emerges…
Cynthia Sax: What do you love about writing paranormal erotic romances?
Denysé Bridger: In any paranormal one of the most fun aspects of it is the impossible becomes possible, first and foremost. Paranormal lends itself to atmosphere and romanticism on many levels, and there is never a wrong way to create a vampire, or a shifter, or a ghostly encounter. Even demons and angels can be so multi-layered, and so romantic if you sharpen the traditional elements that make romance so appealing.
Cynthia Sax: What goals have you set for 2013?
Denysé Bridger: The goal for 2013 is actually a three-parter, with at least a couple of the “wishes” standing a chance of being fulfilled. One, I want to finally work with a good agent, and have the perfect book for it – I hope! Secondly, once commitments from last year are cleared up, I have set myself the task of creating at least one new novel, though ideally it will be two. One is a fantasy set in Sicily, and the second one is a paranormal involving angels. Last wish is the least likely, I’d love to have my favourite model on the cover of one of the new books! So, here’s hoping!!
Thank you, Denysé Bridger, for joining us today!

*****************************************************************************
A haunted and abandoned hotel on Halloween is the setting for a very private party between two lovers, one of them a world-class, sophisticated intelligence operative who’s trying to teach his young and innocent lady that curiosity can sometimes take you places you’d be better not to go. Amid elaborate trappings meant to scare and entice, Rick’s seduction takes some unexpected but wickedly wonderful twists. But, Rick also has a lesson to learn, when his past collides with his present, and almost destroys everything he cherishes most.

Cover Reveal For Leopard Territory
Ohhh…. I received the cover for Leopard Territory (releasing June 20th from Changeling Press). This is my favorite of the Big Cat Mate series. I LOVE Adar. He’s SO sexy.
Jeanine knows there’s safety in groups, and no group provides more protection than a pride of lion shifters. She is determined to catch the eye of a young lion shifter and convince him to choose her as his mate. There’s one problem with her plan, and that’s Adar — ruthless billionaire financier, scarred leopard shifter, and the only male she has ever desired.
Leopards are solitary, territorial, and very protective of their mates. Jeanine is Adar’s mate. She simply doesn’t realize it yet, but she will… soon. Adar is ready to stake his claim on his small human, and he won’t tolerate any male’s encroachment on his turf. He’s willing to fight to the death to prove he’s the only big cat Jeanine needs.

Interview With Jan Springer
I sat down (virtually) with Jan Springer for a short interview. Jan Springer writes hot paranormal erotic romances for Ellora’s Cave and her latest release is Passionate Ink. I LOVED this story!
Cynthia Sax: Does Calder, your hero in Passionate Ink, have a secret?
Jan Springer: Oh yes my yummy hero has a couple of secrets. Calder is actually a shape shifter but Cat, my heroine has no idea who he is. For all she knows, he’s a hot guy looking for a tentacle tattoo on his…most private part! She doesn’t know that at night he turns into part human and part Octopus – an Octoposeidon. He has lots of tentacles at night and that makes for some scorching tentacle sex. *wink* He also realizes that my heroine Cat has no idea she is about to come into her Change…she has no idea she is also an Octoposeidon!
Cynthia Sax: Will Passionate Ink be the first story in a new series?
Jan Springer: At first I didn’t think it would be a series, but now I am toying with at least one sequel and maybe more. The outline phase is now in progress for the sequel to Passionate Ink, so I will see where it goes. I would like to keep the tattoo and tentacle aspects throughout the next book(s).
Cynthia Sax: What one piece of advice would you give new writers?
Jan Springer: The biggest piece of advice I would give to writers is to keep writing and keep learning your craft. Whether you are indie-publishing or looking toward the traditional route, just keep pumping out those stories because for the readers who love your stories they will want more and more! Before you know it, you will have a wonderful reader base who eagerly look for more of your books.
Cynthia Sax: What do you love about writing paranormal erotic romances?
Jan Springer: I love using my imagination. The more challenging the story the more it grips my attention and makes me want to keep writing it. The way I see it if it holds my attention, chances are it will capture the reader’s heart as well.
Thank you, Jan Springer, for joining us today!

Tattoo artist Catalina Brown falls head over orgasms for the stranger who asks for a tentacle tattoo on his…most sensitive body part. Normally mixing business with pleasure isn’t her thing, but he’s a sexual magnet she’s instantly drawn to, particularly after Cat experiences a wicked hot artistic high while tattooing his every succulent inch. It seems all too good to be true.
Octoposeidon shape shifter Calder Croft catches the female’s succulent scent when she passes his California marina, and he can’t ignore the way she fires his blood. After meeting her, he’s stunned to discover Cat has no idea she’s a shifter about to come into her Change. It takes all his self control to keep from ravishing the sexy woman right on the spot. Calder has to tell Cat the truth about her heritage. She’ll either accept her birthright as a shifter-or succumb to madness, forever losing their chance at love.

Interview With J.K. Coi
I sat down (virtually) with J.K. Coi for a short interview. J.K. Coi writes hot, emotional paranormal erotic romances for Ellora’s Cave and her latest release is Forever Immortal. I read J.K.’s Immortal series when it was previously released, absolutely raved over them then, and now she’s tweaked them so they’re even better. I didn’t think that was even possible!
Cynthia Sax: What makes your Gideon sexy?
J.K. Coi: The thing I love about Gideon is the very fact that he thinks he’s NOT hero material. He’s a scientist at heart who only ever wanted to bury himself in the lab. And the reality is that he failed miserably at being a warrior, making a devastating mistake early on that cost someone special her life. Since then, he thinks he has to let go of the scientist if he’s going to redeem himself, and so he’s trained and trained and trained until he can barely remember the person he used to be.
Cynthia Sax: What excites you about Forever Immortal?
J.K. Coi: I love this story because the hero and heroine are so feisty. They play off each other with bravado and wit, and sparks fly like crazy. I also love it because it’s the fourth book in the series and brings a lot of the characters from the first book back together. And although I thought it would be the last book, now I know there’s more for me to write!
Cynthia Sax: What is your favorite line from Forever Immortal and why?
J.K. Coi: “Human or not, we all have a demon inside us somewhere,” Gideon pressed. “It doesn’t make you a monster unless you can’t control it.”
“That’s the thing,” she whispered. “I don’t know that I can.”
He sighed. “Then that’s where we have a problem.”
I don’t know why I love this scene in the story so much, but it really shows how hard Gideon is fighting to help Lyssa, not only because she’s the mistake he has to fix – but because he sees himself in her. If she’s a monster who can’t be redeemed, what hope is there for him?
Cynthia Sax: What creates conflict between Gideon and Lyssa?
J.K. Coi: Gideon is a warrior charged with protecting the human realms from the demons who have escaped their eternal prison. Five years ago he was new to the job and when he chased down a particularly nasty demon, he made a huge mistake which put a woman in the crossfire. Now she’s returned, but she’s no longer human and he’s torn between wanting to help her, and doing what he knows he has to do…
Thank you, J.K. Coi, for joining us today!

*****************************************************************************
Eight years ago, science and reason ruled Gideon Bennett’s life. Until the death of an Immortal triggered a physical transformation, forcing him out of the laboratory and into a world of violence for which he was ill-prepared. Now a seasoned warrior, he is still haunted by his one massive failure—and the face and body of the woman he couldn’t save.
Lyssa James wasn’t looking for trouble when she set out to enjoy a night on the town. Instead she got a first-class ticket to a demon Hell dimension where she was trapped for eight long years. Now she’s finally escaped…only to run into the man who failed her. The passion between them is instant and irresistible, but neither of them is the same person they were eight years ago. And even as they battle with their desire, one of the nastiest demons from the Abyss is on the loose, threatening not only their lives but the future of humanity.
