A Year Of Sizzling Hot Sax – Sinful Rewards 2 Read Along
The second novella in Sinful Rewards, a 12 novella contemporary erotic romance serial, releases today! I know many reading buddies have been waiting, wondering what Bee, our unlikely exhibitionist, will do next and whom she’ll choose – Nicolas, the billionaire with a dark secret or Hawke, the tattooed bad boy biker.
Between stories, we’re having a blast on our Goodreads group (https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/139616-a-year-of-sizzling-hot-sax-read-along ). I’m sharing fun facts, bad puns, and insider information. Readers asked for an extra scene involving sexy times on a bike and I happily wrote this! I can’t wait to hear what you’d like me to write next!
Here are some snippets about what we’ll be talking about this month on the Goodreads group.
Pretty Bikes
Hawke rides a customized chopper. Bee makes the mistake of calling his bike pretty in Sinful Rewards 2.
This is his response
“Pretty?” He scowls, appearing deeply offended, lines grooved around his mouth. “Paintings are pretty. You’re pretty.”
He thinks I’m pretty. My soul fills with happiness.
“Bikes aren’t pretty, sweetheart. They’re powerful machines.” Hawke turns the key in the ignition, clutches the throttle and revs the engine, the sound vibrating through my chest. “One thousand CCs, like having a beast between your legs,” he shouts, quieting the machine once more.
One of the many things I love about Hawke is he’s big and he’s bad and he doesn’t feel the need to prove himself to anyone. He rides a ‘pretty’ bike, not caring if other men (or women) think less of him for doing so. In my opinion, this makes him even more of a bada$$ than if he had ridden the classic black Harley.
How To Train A Billionaire
Nicolas and Bee got off to a rocky start in Sinful Rewards 1. Their first meeting didn’t progress as she’d fantasized.
This scene indicates there might be hope for their relationship.
“Hello, Nicolas,” I purr, attempting to duplicate Lona LaMarre’s husky tones.
“This is Nicolas Rainer,” the billionaire barks, his voice curt. “Meet me in five minutes. Outside your office.” The phone clicks and there’s silence.
Nicolas introduced himself this time. I grin. Billionaire bachelors can be trained.
Nicolas is a successful, driven man. When Bee suggests he introduce himself when he calls and not assume everyone recognizes his voice/number, he implements this suggestion immediately.
Would he do this with someone he didn’t trust, he didn’t care for? If he’s willing to make this change, what else is he willing to do for Bee?
If you’d like to read more insights on Sinful Rewards 2, please join our Goodreads group at https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/139616-a-year-of-sizzling-hot-sax-read-along .
Belinda “Bee” Carter isn’t quite sure what she’s gotten herself into. She’s been receiving mysterious messages from a secret admirer who is sending her more and more erotic dares. Each time she fulfills his desires, she gets rewarded. She’s convinced that her mystery texter is one of two super-hot men—Nicolas, the handsome billionaire, or Hawke, the sexy biker—but she can’t tell which one it is. And she’s coming to realize that beneath her peaches-and-cream exterior beats a heart that longs to play out all of her most secret fantasies.
As the stakes are raised again, will Bee succumb to the sensual allure of this latest dare?

Shark Week At The Shedd
Sinful Rewards is set in Chicago, a city I absolutely love. One of the fun things about this story are the references to the local attractions and buildings.
When I wrote Sinful Rewards 2, I had NO idea when the story would be releasing. It could have released in May, December, April. I didn’t know.
So I was THRILLED when I found out it would be releasing tomorrow, right in the middle of shark week at the Shedd (Chicago’s aquarium and a beloved landmark).
Why? Because this scene in Sinful Rewards refers to this awesome event!
The bus arrives six minutes late. It’s crammed full of people. Painted faces are pressed against the steamed-up windows. I spot dorsal fin hats and giant foam fish, which can mean only one thing—it’s Shark Week at the Shedd.
The driver opens the door, looks at me, glances behind him at the masses of bodies wedged into the space. “You’re small. You might fit.” He flicks his fingers, ushering me onto the vehicle.
John Shedd Aquarium Dome
“Thank you.” I’m average size but I don’t argue. I pay my fare and slide between a broad woman proudly wearing an I Heart Hammerheads T-shirt and a bearded man in a suit. My hand sticks out of the suffocating human sandwich, my purse hanging over the fare box.
The bus jerks forward. I slam against the corporate lumberjack, my breasts smacking against his chest. “Sorry.” I widen my stance, better bracing myself, embarrassed by the contact.
He grunts, his response swallowed by his beard. Moisture beads on his forehead. His suit jacket smells like wet wool.
I stare at his lapels, trying to act as though I’m not pressed against him, as though I’m not sharing an intimate embrace with a stranger, our thighs, hips, chests touching. The floor vibrates under my shoes. I don’t know how fast we are moving, as I can’t see outside, my view blocked by bodies, my fellow passengers much taller than I am.
John Shedd Aquarium From The Front
A lady grumbles loudly about great whites giving other sharks a bad name. “Everyone knows the great white is the only shark worth talking about,” a man snaps.
Passengers gasp, their reactions encouraging the combatants. The verbally dueling duo exchange increasingly shrill insults, drawing oohs and aahs from the shark-savvy crowd. I wince, my eardrums ringing. Shark fans make Black Friday shoppers appear civilized, and these adversaries are locked in a to-the-death standoff, their hostility spiraling my anxiety skyward.
The man finally calls her a seal lover, the ultimate insult. The woman shrieks. Foam slaps against foam. Bodies sway. The bus stops, and everyone groans.
“Is this an incident?” the driver asks. “Do I have to notify dispatch?”

Second Excerpt For Sinful Rewards 2
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.
Last week, I shared the first teaser for Sinful Rewards 2.
You can read it here.
http://tasteofcyn.com/2014/07/29/first-excerpt-for-sinful-rewards-2
Today, I’ll share another teaser!
At exactly three minutes after five o’clock, a long black limousine rolls to a stop in front of the building, its tires sending ripples through the puddles. The door opens and a tanned hand reaches out of the vehicle. “Get in,” Nicolas orders.
My billionaire is certainly not a hearts-and-flowers type of guy. My lips twitch as I clasp his fingers. He pulls me into the limo, his grip soft yet firm, demanding my full obedience.
I land with a thud on the seat beside him, my fabric-covered ass smacking against the leather. Our hips and thighs touch, and my cheeks heat. Setting my purse in my lap, I press my knees together, vividly aware that I’m bare under my dress, the prospect of getting caught by Nicolas, by anyone, exciting me.
“You picked me up at work.” I turn my head and my breath hitches. He’s so damn handsome, his black wavy hair smoothed away from his face, his features male-model perfect, his dark brown eyes glittering. His outfit is as monochrome as the day, his suit black, his shirt white with a hint of gray pinstripes, and his tie a deep charcoal.
The deep charcoal matches my dress, I realize, this happy thought lifting my spirits. We look like a couple.
“I didn’t make you wait on a street corner like some two-bit hooker.” Nicolas repeats my words from yesterday, his voice lilting with amusement. “I also introduced myself when I called.”
He listened to me, minimum-wage-earning, stupendously average Belinda Carter. This thrills me, flatters me, improving my mood even more.
“There’s hope for you yet.” I admire the way his suit jacket hugs his long, lean form. Nicolas isn’t a muscular beast like Hawke. He’s suave and sophisticated.
He must be wearing underwear. I wiggle, bumping my hip against his.
“Don’t hold out too much hope for me, Bee.” Nicolas slides his arm around my waist and splays his fingers over my hip, his clasp on me secure, stilling my squirming.
“I’m an asshole to my core.” He grins, not at all apologetic. He knows he’s an asshole, and he doesn’t care. My sexy billionaire rubs sensual circles into my skin with his fingertips, his searching touch causing the flicker of desire inside me to flare.
“So you keep warning me.” I shift beside him, the band of emotion around my chest wrapping tighter and tighter with each exploratory swirl of his fingers. He won’t find the expected ridges of fabric under my dress. He’ll realize I’m not wearing panties.
“You should heed my warnings.” Nicolas’s hand inches forward, toward my mons, and my spine straightens, my passion flowing into alarm. I’m not ready to be touched like this, not by him, not by anyone, not yet. I open my mouth to protest, and his fingers stop moving.
He knows. My breath catches. He’s aware that I’m naked under my dress.

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.
I hope you enjoyed Sinful Rewards 1! Here is a teaser for Sinful Rewards 2!
“Belinda,” Hawke murmurs, his deep voice pulling at me.
Unable to resist his unspoken order, I gaze upward. This is a mistake. His eyes have darkened to a brilliant blue, his arousal meeting, meshing with mine, and I know in this moment, I’m lost. He has me.
“Hawke.” I part my lips, offering him everything. He’s rough and tough, a big strong military man, a tattooed biker. I expect him to plunder, conquer, take.
Instead, Hawke carefully frames my face with his large hands, his calloused fingertips gentle yet firm, and he dips his head slowly, his gaze holding mine. My heart races faster and faster, my body trembles as though this first kiss is my very first kiss.
He skims his lips over mine, his touch as light as the sheerest silk, his breath wafting on my cheeks. My eyelashes flutter, the sensation sweet yet sensual, innocent yet decadent, completely unexpected and special.
“Priceless,” he murmurs, and this is how I feel, priceless, designer, unique.
He dips his head again, follows the curve of my lips a second time, pressing harder, lingering longer. I open to him, inviting him in, needing more, and when he pulls away, I pursue him, prodding him with my tongue.
Hawke groans, the sound rumbling up his chest, through mine, and he surges forward, his grip on my face tightening. My body hums with approval as he pushes his tongue into my mouth. He tastes of rich dark coffee, and I shamelessly suck on him, tugging on his flesh, clinging to him.
A shudder shakes Hawke’s shoulders, his reaction thrilling me. I cause him to respond this way. I shred his control.
He cups my ass, drawing me even closer, coaxing me to move, to undulate against him. I rock as he strokes into me, his tongue sliding along mine, tumbling, tangling, dancing to a rhythm only we share. Never have I been kissed like this, a man’s being permeating mine, our bodies becoming one.
I’m on fire, burning from the inside, the flames fueled by tongues, lips, hands, hips. Striving to soothe me, Hawke ravishes my mouth again and again, kneading my curves with his fingertips. My lips pulse and my soul aches.
It’s not enough. I tug on his T-shirt, pull the cotton away from his honed torso, and slide my fingers underneath the garment, touching hot bare skin. A tremor rolls over him, his muscles flexing under my palms.
Hawke wrenches his lips from mine. “No.”
