Excellent Review of Fang Bangers!

9th August 2010 – Hey everyone! Just a quick note to let you know that the lovely Toni Sands kindly agreed to read and review Fang Bangers for me. And I think… OK, I know that she liked it! Just in case you don’t believe me, here is her review in full:

Fang Bangers has something for everyone who savours dark and erotic Fang Bangerswriting. Think bittersweet chocolates, each with a rich, creamy filling. Think hot black coffee laced with a heady liqueur that trickles down your throat and awakens your entire body. Prepare to fly high but also to be grounded. Pinned down maybe by a fabulous creature whose trappings of fur and claws dissolve to reveal the kind of body that you dream of possessing. Or of being possessed by…?

The backdrops to these stories range from luxury residence to no-frills hotel room: from lush forest to sleazy bar. There’s a poignant theme of restless souls seeking satisfaction and the stories mentioned below highlight what’s on offer in this impressive collection.

In Shattered Resistance, Suzy stalks Dane, a guy she describes as dangerous, sexy and immortal. Suzy is driven by desire and determination. Two irresistible forces lead to one fascinating story as strong wills clash. Ah, did I mention dishy Dane’s a vampire to die for?

Mate Run is old as time and fresh as today. It’s a shape-shifting, lip-licking, evocative story with a strong love theme which will appeal to the romantics among us. It also has a high erotic charge.

If you thought Dane the vampire was a dish, you’ll also thrill to The Best Man in the story of that name. This is a great example of two people’s yearnings being fulfilled as nature girl meets werewolf.

Fixation will send a shiver down your spine as well as blast you with growly jungle heat. While Love Bites: A Survival Guide is a cleverly-constructed and comprehensive take on love in a world that defies reason.

With fourteen stories to dip into, there’s plenty to please everyone. So bring on the va-va-vampires. Zoom in on the zombies. Sit back and let your imagination send you running with the wild ones. In our world where electronic devices control civilization, maybe we especially need a taste of beings beyond our comprehension.

Hopefully this has convinced you to grab your copy. If not, why not!? Anyhoo… it’s available from the following:

Totty Tuesday – Scott Speedman

Scott Speedman3rd August 2010 – Another result of my vamp-fest is Mr. Speedman. He plays Michael Corvin, a part-vamp, part-werewolf type bloke in Underworld and Underworld: Evolution, also starring Kate Beckinsale and Bill Nighy.

He’s been in tons of other stuff, but I’ve only ever seen him in these two films. And although I normally like the bad-ass type characters, he actually plays a really nice guy in the two films. He also has some pretty hot sex with Selene (Beckinsale) where you see a fair bit of flesh, which is always nice.

Sadly, I couldn’t find any decent photos with him shirtless as they’re all a bit grainy – you’ll just have to watch the films and perv on him for yourself.

My story, Shattered Resistance, is about Suzy, a human who is madly in love with a vampire. She wants Dane in every way but he continues to resist her feminine charms. Trouble is, Suzy just doesn’t give up. Find out what happens by getting your hands on a copy of the anthology here. And as a little treat, here’s a short excerpt to get you warmed up…

Suzy took a deep breath, knowing she had to act fast to put her plan into action before Dane awoke. She grabbed the duvet that covered him, wondering what he wore for bed, if anything. She didn’t have to wonder for long. She pulled, and revealed his body in all its naked glory. As he was lying on his back, nothing was left to the imagination. Suzy was pleased to note than even in its flaccid state, Dane’s penis was still an impressive size. Not that she’d expected anything less—vampires were superior in every other way—it just wouldn’t make sense for him to have a small cock.

Time to make it bigger, she thought. Discarding the duvet, Suzy sat gingerly on the edge of the bed, reached for Dane’s cock and began to stroke it. As she did, she maneuvred herself so she could reach it with her mouth. His prick began to grow tumescent beneath her fingers and she leant down and closed her lips around the tip. Continuing to caress him with her hand, she began to lick and suck at the head of his rapidly swelling shaft. She’d always enjoyed giving head and considered herself to be pretty good at it—but giving oral sex to a vampire was on a whole other level.

So, what are you waiting for? Get your copy of this fang-tastic (sorry) eBook today, just $4.99 from Ravenous Romance.

Also – if there are any reviewers out there, please give me a shout – we’d love to get some coverage of the book on your sites/blogs!

Call for Submissions – Uniform Behaviour

Call for Submissions

Uniform Behaviour
Steamy stories about men and women in uniform

Editor: Lucy Felthouse
Publisher: Um… me!
Deadline: 30th September 2010
Payment: To be determined – details below

I’ve wanted to edit an anthology for some time, but the right opportunity has never presented itself. So I thought, what the hell, I’ll do it myself! And what better subject matter for this erotic anthology than uniforms? It’s one of my favourite fantasies, and one I know many share.

I’m looking for heterosexual stories about men and women in uniform to be put into an eBook anthology. I want all kinds of uniforms, in varying scenarios. There can be one character in uniform or many, just as long as your story is erotic! I want to get seriously hot under the collar whilst reading your submissions. That’s it, really. Let your imaginations go wild! Please note, stories must not have been previously published.

Please stick to the usual rules, i.e. no underage sex, no non-consensual scenes, incest, bestiality and other yucky stuff. No poetry, please.

I will select 25 stories for this anthology and then split the proceeds equally, dependent on what I receive from each outlet after they take their cut. I’d also like to donate money to Help for Heroes, a UK charity set up to help those wounded in current conflict. I see this working by effectively making the charity a 26th person. They’ll get the same cut as everyone else, which I’ll pay to them when the cash has hit a certain threshold (similarly to how authors will be paid).

You’ll have to bear with me on the nitty-gritty, as I haven’t done anything like this before, but I’m very excited about the project and can’t wait to see it come together. I’ll be submitting the eBook to Smashwords (and as a result will be pushing this out to Apple’s iBooks, the Sony Reader Store, Kobo and Barnes & Noble) 1RomanceEbooks and Amazon Kindle. If any of you have any other suggestions for sites which sell independent eBooks, please let me know on your submission email. I will endeavour to submit to them all. Naturally, the more outlets, the better!

When the eBook is released, any help on marketing and spreading the word will be gratefully received. I’d like to make this a success, for the sake of the lovely writers who are contributing, and for the brave servicemen and women who are currently at war.

How to submit: Send double-spaced Arial/Calibri 12 point black font Word or RTF document. Your story should be 1,500 – 4,000 words. Please indent the first line of each paragraph half an inch. Please include your word count, real name, pen name (if applicable), and 50 word or less bio in third person. I’ll also require the email address you use for your PayPal account, as this is how I will be paying you when I have myself received funds. You can submit as many stories as you like – within reason!

Please send your completed story to lucy (at) lucyfelthouse (dot) co (dot) uk. In the subject line, please write Submission for Uniform Behaviour, along with the title of your story and the uniform/s involved. I look forward to reading your stories! Closing date is 30th September. Providing I’m not totally swamped with stories, I’ll do my best to come back to you by the end of October. Any questions should also be directed to this email address.

ALSO: Please spread the word! Feel free to post this call on your own blogs/sites, Tweet about it, Facebook it, anything! The more the merrier!

Totty Tuesday – Aidan Turner

Aidan Turner27th July 2010 – Hello and welcome! This week, for your viewing pleasure, Totty Tuesday is Aidan Turner. For those of you that don’t know, he plays the vampire Mitchell in the BBC supernatural drama, Being Human. I’ve only seen series one of the show, but I love it and will be getting the DVD box set pretty soon so I can get up to speed.

This guy is a mere two years older than me, so no sugar daddy status, as per last’s week controversial entry, Michael Sheen. I love Aidan’s character in the show, and just discovered from his IMDB entry that he was also in an episode of The Tudors. Will have to look out for him when I dig those DVDs out again.

He’s pretty gorgeous in this pic as he’s doing the whole dark and brooding vampire thing. Equally though, he’s a total cutie when he smiles, and as for the accent (he’s Irish), well… say no more.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s no Jared Padalecki, but he’d score pretty highly if I compiled a top 100 list of totty. And higher still if it was vampire totty. Yum.

Totty Tuesday – Michael Sheen

Michael Sheen as Lucian20th July 2010 – Ooh, having checked on IMDB.com, he’s not actually as old as I thought. Perhaps he’s just had a difficult life… or something. Anyway, my sudden crush on Michael Sheen took me quite by surprise whilst I was watching Underworld, and not for the first time I might add. I obviously didn’t notice him properly the first time round (or in the other two films!) – but suddenly, I thought, “yum.” So I thought I would post what I think is quite a tasty photo for your perusal – and hopefully to reassure me that I’m not the only one who thinks that Sheen as Lucian is pretty damn sexy (please reassure me in the comments… please!!).

In fact, he’s even quite tasty as Aro in the Twilight films. Perhaps because he’s shit scary whilst actually coming across as quite nice and polite on the surface. Which somehow just makes him all the more terrifying, as you don’t know when he’s going to flip. Or set his psycho pain inflicting bitch vampire on you, anyway. You have to have seen it to know what I’m on about. And I suspect there are more of you sitting there nodding than you’d like to admit. Don’t worry, I won’t tell.

So there you have it. A man with long hair and a beard, who’s dirty and not even human, and I think he’s quite fit. Yes, yes, I know…

Charlotte Stein’s Bonkers Blog Tour

Today is the release date for Tigerlily, Charlotte Stein’s erotic short story for Total-E-Bound. Therefore, she has embarked on a blog tour to do some promo type stuff. And be bonkers, of course. So… without further ado…

***

TigerlilySo this time I’m at Lucy Felthouse’s blog, doing mah promo thing. But I’m also apparently doing a poetry thing, in honour of all the people who were kind enough to let me wriggle all over their blogs to promote Tigerlily, which is out July 19th from Total-E-Bound.

But enough about that. On to the poem in honour of the lovely Lucy!

Oh Lucy Felthouse

I love how your name is kind of dirty

But not.

After all, you can’t really

Feel a house.

But I sure would try,

For you.

You have always been

A great reviewer,

And I love you always for

Supporting Black Lace,

RIP

But most of all I love you for

Putting all the work you do

Into the erotica community in general.

With your stories,

Your reviews,

Everything.

You are the best.

Even when you’re busy,

Feeling houses.

And now onto the promo bit of things!

Blurb:

Oh what’s a girl to do, when she finds a sexy, naked man in her back garden?

When a naked guy turns up in Mae’s back garden, she can’t decide if he’s crazy or sent from heaven. He can’t remember his name, or where he’s from, but he seems to know one thing for certain- Mae is in need of some hot loving, and fast.
However, the more he persuades her to let go and give in, the more she finds herself believing that she’s met him before. But childhood games with a boy who she’s sure had wings on his back are giving way to her deepest sexual fantasies, and dreams of another world entirely are not far behind…

Excerpt:

“There was a guy, running a blue streak through the trees. Mae Connelly could see him, even amidst the febrile greenery and the lowering light, arms pumping. Legs pumping. Cock swinging in the breeze.

Which was when she decided to stand up, and get a better look.

Purely out of simple curiosity, of course. Nothing unseemly about stepping off your porch to gawk at a man who appeared to be running through the field behind your house, buck ass nekkid.

And it didn’t sadden her—not even a little—when he ploughed into the long grass and everything below the waist got cut off. No—not even a little bit, uh-uh. After all, she was just a concerned citizen.

Concerned about someone who sure looked terrified. He looked more than terrified—she could see him, turning his head every five seconds as though expecting to see hellhounds behind him, chomping at his heels. He kept almost stumbling, like fear wouldn’t let him keep his footing.

And as he veered closer to her house, she could definitely make out red, striping his upper arms. The fact that said upper arms were sinewy with muscle and very nice indeed took a shameful backseat.

She shouted before her brain confirmed that doing so was a good idea.

“Hey!”

It was definitely not a good idea. He fell almost immediately, at the sound of her voice. She saw him turn, and then it was all just tits over ass and nothing but the long grass, stirring, to suggest that he had ever been there.

All the possible reasons that someone could be running, naked and terrified, went through her head: escape from a forced nudist colony. Being hunted by a Terminator from the future. Sex game that went horribly, horribly wrong. Or right, depending on your kink.

But none of them seemed either a) plausible or b) sane. As far as she knew, forced nudist colonies didn’t even exist. And likely Terminators and time travel machines didn’t, either. Especially not ones that sent you through time with your ass hanging out.”
