Mid Week Tease: …even the villain of the piece had sex appeal… #MWTease

mid-week-tease-buttonHi everyone,

Welcome back to Mid Week Tease! I’m sharing another snippet from my geeky novella A Different Kind of Cosplay. I hope you enjoy it!

A Different Kind of CosplayAfter putting the disc in the player, he headed into the kitchen to see how his dinner was coming along. A meal in front of the television was the order of the day, it seemed.

A few minutes later, he settled onto the sofa with his lasagna and garlic bread, a bottle of beer on the table next to him. Time for some Avengers action.

Within half an hour, he’d ascertained that the film wasn’t just for geeks. In fact it was easy to see why it had such a wide appeal—the cast was supremely attractive, whatever gender you were into, the plot was interesting and the dialogue seriously witty. He’d already developed quite the crush on the Black Widow, and Nick Fury’s right-hand woman had a lovely pert backside.

Trying to put himself in Reese’s shoes, Zach looked at the male characters. Okay, when it came to this film, straight women clearly had more eye-candy than they knew what to do with. He vaguely remembered a bunch of crazy stuff going around on the internet about Loki—even the villain of the piece had sex appeal, for heaven’s sake! So much so that it had spilled over into even Zach’s limited social media presence. He barely used Facebook, and he’d never gotten the hang of Twitter. And yet he knew about the rabid fangirls. That was another score for The Avengers, then—truly mass-market appeal. If only there were mass-market gift-buying options.

Sighing, he tried to empty his mind and concentrate on the film. The more he tried to force an idea to present itself, the less likely it would be to happen. He’d just enjoy the entertainment and keep his fingers crossed that his subconscious provided something useful.

Once he’d made the decision, it wasn’t difficult to get sucked back into the narrative. It was engaging, easygoing and fun. Zach surprised himself by thoroughly enjoying the entire thing. Reese would be pleased—not to mention surprised—when the next film came out at the cinema and he offered to go along with her.

Mid Week Tease: There were perks to dating a doctor… #MWTease

mid-week-tease-buttonHi everyone,

Welcome back to Mid Week Tease! Today I’m switching it up and will be sharing for a few weeks at least from my geeky novella, A Different Kind of Cosplay. This is a re-release with a new cover, so if you’ve read it before, the content hasn’t changed.

A Different Kind of CosplayZachary sighed at the calendar entry in his phone, which was reminding him for the third time about Reese’s upcoming birthday. And it wasn’t just any birthday—she was going to be thirty.

There were perks to dating a doctor—the uniform was pretty hot, for example—but when that doctor had no particular fondness for jewelry, flowers or chocolates, buying her presents was nigh-on impossible. And because of her work schedule, a surprise weekend away was out of the question. He’d long since learned to always keep the receipts.

Most people get their partners something to do with their hobbies or interests. However, Reese was even awkward in that regard. Her main hobby was so complex that Zach didn’t have the first idea what to get her to do with it—Reese was an uber-geek. Films, graphic novels, collectibles, all that jazz.

Obviously he could just ask what she wanted, then go out and get it, but then it wouldn’t be a surprise. And it was too easy—he wanted her to know he’d really made the effort.

Snoozing the calendar reminder once more, Zach threw the phone onto the sofa, then walked over and started rooting through their combined film collection for something to watch after dinner, which was almost ready. Reese was on shift at the hospital until silly o’clock, so he had the house to himself and could watch whatever he liked. An action movie it was, then.

Running his fingers along the spines of the DVDs and Blu-rays, he suddenly paused. The Avengers leaped out at him, for some reason. He’d seen snippets of it before, as Reese watched it pretty frequently. The parts he’d seen hadn’t looked too bad, actually. It was essentially an action film, but with superheroes in it.

He pulled the case off the shelf, an idea beginning to form. Maybe if he watched it beginning to end, he’d see what drew Reese into that world so much, why she was so fascinated by the films, the graphic novels and so on. Even if he didn’t get it, though, maybe it would still give him some inspiration for a gift. He had nothing better to do that evening, in any case, so it was certainly worth a try.

New Release: A Different Kind of Cosplay #MFRWauthor #bookboost #LPRTG #SSRTG

Hi folks,

I’m delighted to announce it’s release day for A Different Kind of Cosplay! For those of you that recognise the title, it’s because this is technically a re-release – the rights for this book have been returned to me, so I’ve given it a lovely new cover and a lower price. However, the content hasn’t changed, so if you read it when it previously released, no need to buy it again (unless you really want to – in which case I won’t complain! 😉 ).

Blurb:

Zachary has a dilemma. His girlfriend, Reese, has a special birthday coming up soon and he has absolutely no clue what to get for her. It doesn’t help that Zach does not share or really understand Reese’s biggest hobby—comic books, superheroes and everything that goes with them. Zach raids Reese’s DVD collection for inspiration, and what he finds there gives him an idea…possibly the best one he’s ever had.

Sure, Reese has fantasized about her favorite superheroes. All those muscles and rakish smiles are to die for. She didn’t think Zach would ever really understand, though. But he proves her wrong in the best way possible.

Superb Reviews = Very Happy Author! #erotica #romance

Hi everyone,

Sorry I’ve been a little quiet the past few days, I’ve been away for a long weekend in Budapest. It was beautiful! Hopefully I’ll be blogging about it soon, when I’m more caught up on work.

I just wanted to share some of the fantastic new reviews I’ve received lately.

For A Different Kind of Cosplay:

“My newest book boyfriend! This is a must read for anyone who likes erotic romance – period. Do not worry about the geek factor. Concentrate on the hot guy going out of his way to please his lady. *sigh* That is just so HOT!” 4 out of 5, The Jeep Diva

“This is full-on erotica, and full-frontal cosplay. Such a fun, kinky, premise and delish steamy scenes. Reece is charmed by Zach’s gift, and they make some plans to advance this kink… It’s a delicious, sexy erotic novella sure to appeal to folks who like role-play, cosplay, kinky vanilla, and The Avengers.” V’s Reads

“…A Different Kind of Cosplay is worth the time to read, but the lovemaking is also special. Not much plot, or intrigue, no real black moment, or hero or heroine’s journeys, just a sweet little love story from Felthouse, who never fails to entertain.” 4 out of 5, Manic Readers

For Brit Boys: On Boys:

“Well wasn’t this a real treat! … brilliantly British and fabulously addictive not to mention HOT! The stories packed a real punch and we came to care for all the characters in a very short time. This Anthology rocked and we can highly recommend it to lovers of MM and readers wanting to give it a go!”4.5 out of 5, Totally Booked

“M/M Romance + Brit speak = SWOON! All the books have sex on the page, and it is totally steamy. Beware: There’s a whole lotta manlove going on, and I adored every word of it.” V’s Reads

“This was an awesome collection of stories.” 5 out of 5, Inked Rainbow Reads

“Well written with a great storyline that I really enjoyed… What can I say, I’m really impressed with this anthology. 8 short stories, 8 fantastic authors.” 9.5 out of 10, Rainbow Gold Reviews

“I had such a blast reading these amazing stories and would definitely recommend reading this book. It gave me all that I could hope for and look forward to reading more by these amazing authors. I mean what is better than gorgeous men, hot sex, a little excitement and surprise.” 4.5 out of 5, MM Good Book Reviews

“A fantastic anthology, full of “Brit speak” and quaintness. I liked how the author found a solution for Theo and Eddie to continue their love story past Theo’s time on location. This was a sweet story, with a very nice happy ever after.” Rainbow Book Reviews

“…what is constant throughout is the quality of writing. Plus they’re really very steamy and I like that a lot. Genuinely, it’s not often you find that kind of quality in one place; and best of all they’re all British. This makes me very proud. So I’m giving this 5 shiny stars. I loved it. Steamy and romantic, funny and often touching.” 5 out of 5, Rebecca Black

“I have to say I really enjoyed this anthology of MM romances with varying degrees of eroticism. All the stories were really good, a rare occurrence with anthologies especially when you haven’t read all the authors before. But I can honestly say that I will read from these authors again.” 4.5 out of 5, Love Bites and Silk Ties

So… I’m sure you’ll understand if I dance around the room a bit, right? 😉
