The music brought me here, but the
story captured me…
Hello readers! A big thank you to Lexi for allowing me to
stop by today! I brought along my new book, Sidney’s Triple Shot,
which is the first in a brand new series of ménage erotic romance stories, and
it’s being released April 2nd! Now,
I’m a big fan of ménage romance, because I like to think big, and if I’m going
to fantasize up one fantastic man, why not make him three equally sexy,
powerful, Alpha males instead? The Dawson brothers are all of those things and
more! Xavier, Tyce and Noah cover the range of desirable qualities in a hero,
and I fell in love with them while I wrote their story.
Their heroine Sidney Rowe, has faced demons that most people
can’t imagine, and survived them to be a stronger more confident woman. Her
journey was emotional, and difficult at times to write, but this has been one
of my favorite books I’ve written. The entire story came to me while I was
listening to the Kelly Clarkson song Breakaway,
and it grew when later that same day I heard the Josh Turner song Soulmate. In the front of the book, I’ve
even added a playlist of songs that helped inspire the book and are mentioned
throughout the story, so that the reader can listen while they read if they
like too.
From that first inspirational brainstorming concert, music
became the central network of the story, with the characters expressing
themselves via specific songs. I think that combining the two was a peek inside
my head for readers, because I tend to tie music to various people and events
in my life.
I’d love to hear if
you too have specific memories tied to songs from your past? Leave me a
comment, and get entered into a drawing for a free ARC of Sidney’s Triple Shot!
Be sure to leave me your email address so that I can get you your book!
Sidney’s Triple Shot
Apache Crossing 1
Sidney
Rowe has been abused in ways that most people can’t even imagine. After a horrific miscarriage, she left behind
everything she had, to escape her ex-boyfriend.
She finds refuge in the kindness of the three Dawson brothers. They give
her a job and a sense of security in the small town of Apache Crossing.
Xavier,
Tyce, and Noah Dawson, have built their bar, Triple Shot, into a profitable
enterprise. The three former Marines,
have also built a reputation for integrity in the community, but their sex
appeal and charm are legendary. They enjoy their playboy status…that is until a
jumpy, skittish Sidney stumbles into their lives needing their help.
Sexual
tension explodes when the brothers decide they want to protect and share
Sidney, but to have her they have to stop her ex from haunting her. Can they
keep her safe, and win her damaged heart?
Excerpt
“I’m fine. I’m sorry I panicked,” she said, but her voice came out
as a squeak. Reality came crashing into her like a tidal wave. She was sitting
in Tyce’s lap, surrounded by the only other two men that had ever made her
throb with desire, and she had their full attention. Xavier’s hands had just
been running all over her body, making her skin tingle. Her anxiety ratcheted
up as she tried to come up with a believable explanation for her panic attack.
She looked up, and when Xavier’s eyes met hers, she instinctively dropped her
gaze away from the intensity in those blue orbs.
“Don’t be scared. It was a pallet of supplies that got dropped when
the loader’s hydraulics broke. No one got hurt, thankfully. We just have a bit
of a mess in the back room to clean up.” Noah crouched down next to Xavier,
taking her hands into his and drawing her attention. “Honey, why did it scare
you so much?”
“Umm…I don’t know…I mean, I heard it, and I thought it was a
gunshot…” She fidgeted for a moment, but froze when she remembered that she was
still in Tyce’s lap. The thickness underneath her told her that he was very
physically aware of her wiggling.
“A gunshot? Why would someone be shooting around here, Sidney?”
Xavier’s question set panic building in her chest again, and she started to
pull away from Tyce’s embrace without answering.
“No, Sidney, you can’t run away from us this time. What is going
on? Are you in trouble?” Tyce pulled her back against his chest and pressed her
head back down to his shoulder. Her whole body was trembling, and he kissed the
top of her head, running his hand up and down her back. For an instant she
wondered how it would feel to be held like this through the night. Comforted
and cherished like something precious. She quickly discarded the fantasy and
tried to refocus on the situation.
“Tyce, please let me go,” she said with a strength that belied the
fragile state her emotions were in. When she turned away from him, she found
Xavier still kneeling in front of her . He reached out and gently but firmly
gripped her chin, forcing her to look him in the eyes.
“Want to tell us about Robert Wicks?” Xavier said quietly. Sidney
felt like her lungs would never expand again. Terror trickled down her spine,
followed by sadness that was so overpowering she had to close her eyes against
their questioning looks. Like waves each emotion swept over her, leaving her
breathless and closer to the edge of an irrationally emotional breakdown. She
twisted away from Xavier’s grip on her jaw and jumped up from Tyce’s lap.
“No, actually I don’t. That’s my business, and I don’t need to
share it with anyone. I’m going back out to the front to help Kara.” She
reached the door before she felt hands on her. Noah’s firm body pressed against
her back, and he wrapped his arms tightly around her. One arm was across her
chest and the other across her hips, holding her immobile while he pressed a
kiss to her ear. It was a beautifully sweet touch that made her ache to share
her burdens with him. “Stop, honey. Whatever it is, you can talk to us,” he
murmured against her ear, and goose bumps prickled across her arms. She
couldn’t tell them about Robert, and she couldn’t let them get any closer to
her. It was time to leave.
“Look, I’m sorry if I gave you all the wrong impression, but I
don’t want or need your help. What I need is my privacy, and my paycheck. I
will finish my shift and leave my uniform in the locker tonight. Clearly I
can’t continue working here.” She held herself stiff until she felt Noah
reluctantly release her, and then she threw the door open and walked down the
hallway. She could feel the tingle of all three men’s eyes on her again until
the door shut behind her. Straightening her spine, she fought off tears as she
reentered the bar dining room. She wouldn’t cry for a man again. No matter how
much she wanted to.
ADULT EXCERPT
Out of the corner of her eye, she could see Noah and Tyce stripping
out of their clothes as she tugged Xavier’s zipper down, exposing his hard
length to her hot hands. She shoved his pants down his thighs and then wrapped
her hand around him. She smiled again when her fingers didn’t quite close
around his girth, and her pussy grew wetter. Sticking her tongue out, she
gently licked the pre-cum off of the tip of his cock.
“Don’t tease me, Sidney,” Xavier grumbled, and she opened her lips
and sucked his length down until it was teasing her tonsils. “Oh fuck, yes,
that’s good, baby.”
Waves of satisfaction rolled over her at every grunt and moan of
pleasure that escaped his voice box, and she doubled her efforts. Reaching her
hand underneath him to cup his heavy balls, she began a sensual, circular
motion with her fingers.
While she was alternately tugging and massaging at his balls, he
roughly gripped her hair and began thrusting into her mouth at his own pace.
She moaned around her mouthful of cock and felt his balls tighten in her hand.
“Swallow it, baby,” he directed, just before his whole body
shuddered as cum shot into her mouth. She swallowed quickly, trying not to lose
a drop, and after a few moments his hand gripped her chin to pull her away from
him oversensitive cock. He tipped her head back to look down at her, and she
smiled at the heavy-lidded look of a sated man.
“Your mouth is incredible,” he murmured as he bent to kiss her
tingling lips. She was surprised by the kiss, knowing he must taste himself on
her tongue, but she realized that even that was a turn on. When he finally
broke their lip-lock and stepped away from her, she was breathing hard again, and
she could feel the flush of lust on her face and throat.
“Strip now,” Xavier said in a low voice that stroked her desire
even higher. She dropped her eyes from his as she tugged the beautiful
navy-blue dress over her head. Noah snatched it from her hands before tossing
it in the general direction of the kitchen and dropping to his knees where
Xavier had been standing.
A blink later she was completely nude except for her strappy
high-heeled sandals. She felt decadent and utterly sexual in the presence of three
large, nude men, and she pushed away all of her normally self-conscious
thoughts.
Tyce moved closer to her side and reached out with one hand to
tweak her nipple. She reacted by moaning and arching into his hand, so he did
it again, only harder. “Do you like that, love?” he whispered to her, but her
panting gave the answer away for her.
Noah’s hands were forcing her knees apart, and his long, masculine
fingers were gently stroking their way closer and closer to her cleft as Tyce
dropped his head to suck her nipple into his mouth. She cried out at the
ripples of ecstasy that rolled over her as Noah nipped at the soft skin of her
inner thigh and danced his fingers over her dripping slit. Tyce’s teeth and
tongue worked magic on her sensitive nipples, and before she could register
what was happening, Sidney climaxed spectacularly.
* * * *
Noah knelt between Sidney’s legs with his eyes fastened on the
soft, pink folds of her femininity. He watched the muscles clench as her orgasm
rocked through her and saw the gush of cream that came with it. Thinking to
himself that it would be a crime to waste that sweet-tasting juice, he ran the
tip of his tongue over her, causing her to scream out as another smaller orgasm
exploded over her.
He glanced over at Xavier, who sat in a chair, completely nude and
entirely focused on the beautiful Sidney. By the rapturous look on his
brother’s face, Noah could only hazard a guess that Xavier was as smitten by
Sidney as he was.
Whether she knew it or not yet, she trusted them with her body and
soul. There was no reason for it, other than fate, because they hadn’t known
each other long enough for them to have truly earned her trust. His heart was
swollen with pride and love for the beautiful woman, and all he could think
about was claiming her for his own permanently.
He watched as Tyce tugged at her body until she moved where he
wanted her. Now she rested on her knees with her chest on the seat of the
couch, and her beautiful, curvy ass high in the air. Reaching one hand across her
back to stroke over the soft white skin of her rear, he couldn’t resist giving
her a little tap. She squealed, and Noah could feel his face break out in a
grin to match Tyce’s.
“Again,” Xavier commanded from behind them, and this time Noah
smacked the other ass cheek.
“Yes!” Sidney moaned into the couch cushion and wiggled her butt
back and forth.
“Hold still, love, or you won’t get what you want,” Tyce said, and
then he bent over her back to kiss her spine, soothing away the roughness of
his words.
Noah continued to let his hands drift over Sidney’s body as Tyce
gently began stroking her asshole with the tip of his finger. The whole time
Sidney’s body trembled under their touch, but she managed to hold fairly still.
With a wink at Noah, Tyce dropped behind her, and from the angle of his head,
Noah knew he was licking her from front to back. She gasped, and her breath
came out in a choking sound when Tyce’s licks centered on her ass, and when he
finally raised his head, Noah could see he had penetrated her ass with two
fingers.
