April Free/Reduced Book Promos

Happy Monday, everyone! Can you believe we're already in the month of April? This month has a lot going on for the Silvers Household, including my 29th wedding anniversary and a college tour for our youngest. And let's not forget the big Release Day for the third and final Penny Montague book, Destroying Sorrow on April 18th. Definitely going to be a busy month.

I'll get to all that stuff at a later date, but right now, here are all the free/reduced goodies for this month. Go fill those eReaders!

Bound to a Devil is now available on KU!

Happy March, everyone! I hope the week is going well for all of you. Mine has been busy, but in a good way. Since it's the first Wednesday of the month, you should have already received my monthly newsletter (if you're subscribed). However, if you missed it, the big news of the day is the movement from wide to KindleUnlimited for Bound to a Devil (Devil Family, book 1).

I've considered this move for a while, and finally decided to jump on the KU train and try it out. This meant removing the ebook format of this story from all bookstores except Amazon, so it's a risky endeavor that I hope will show promising results.

This is a must for 90 days, so after that timeframe I'll reevaluate and decide if the book stays on KU or moves back to wide distribution. In the meantime, if you're subscribed to KindleUnlimited, consider grabbing your copy of Bound to a Devil. The second book is tentatively schedule for release on August 22nd, so that gives you plenty of time to catch up on book 1. :)

Author Feature: Maggie Tideswell's Interview with a Seducer

Interview With A Seducer

A Bewildering Love Story

Trip Murgatroyd is a hotter than hot sex worker. He is happy with his life, with what he does for a living - he is comfortable in his own skin. 

Then he receives an unusual request – to be Rachel’s 30th birthday gift. 

An uber-hot escort is an unlikely candidate for a rather prim, over-protected widow

to befriend. And who had ever heard of a jealous ghost?

     

Trip and Rachel would most likely never have met, had Rachel's friend not come up with this original birthday gift idea. Rachel was meant to close her eyes, and say 'thank you' afterward.

But, the concept of a stranger paid to spend the night with her did not sit well with her. She

couldn't be part of his harem. So, questioning the man about his 'work' in a very public place,

was as far as she was prepared to go.

     

However, the plan was doomed from the start - having never encountered a man like him

before, she never stood a chance against his charm - the seducer was good at what he did for

a living.

     

And her husband objected.

     

Since his death, Lawrence had been hanging around the house, reading the newspaper,

watching TV - until  Rachel's meeting with Trip. Then he made his displeasure known -

Rachel had promised him forever, and he was holding her to it.

     

But Rachel was a young woman - she wanted to love again. 

How was she to escape her jealous husband's ghost?

Interview With A Seducer is a steamy paranormal romance for adult readers.

Turkish release of A Midnight Infatuation

Just a little update on the Turkish release of A Midnight Infatuation (Alex & Fiona, book 1):

Yes, it was suppose to release in July, but that's how the publishing world goes. Looks like it'll be an August release instead. My editor assures me that all is well and the book will be out soon. She let me know that the Turkish title is BALANS, which means "balance" and is apparently a very popular word in Turkey.

She also sent me the back cover summary. I don't know Turkish, so I used Google Translator on it, and we all know how that goes. Makes for some funny translations. Anyway, here's the Turkish version with the English translation: BALANS plot summary.

Now I'm waiting to see some cover art and then it should all be set for release in Turkey. Once that's complete I'll share purchase links for this newly translated edition. :)

Alex & Fiona Forever

As is common knowledge amongst my readers, I'm working on book 3 of the Liz Baker series. Liz is getting busy down in Savannah for right now. However, I'm also working on another project: a re-release of all three Alex & Fiona books in one hardcover edition.

Yep, all three Alex & Fiona stories in one easy-to-carry hardcover book. With the Turkish translations moving right along for these three books I thought it would be something nice to do for the English readers that have enjoyed these two characters for many years now.

We're working on formatting right now, and then I'll see if my lovely cover designer has anything up her sleeve that will do justice to the three covers we already have (I love those covers!). I'm looking forward to holding these three stories in one hardcover copy. It'll be a big one, but should be cheaper to purchase like this than in the three separate books.

This new edition *should* be available in the next month, or so. I will, of course, let everyone know when the time comes.

Now I should go get some family stuff done and then start my writing for the day. I hope you have a lovely Wednesday.  :)

Excerpt Day: A Twilight Abduction

Good morning ladies and gents.  Yep, I'm out of town this week, but that doesn't mean I can't take the time to share information about my books (like I'd ever stay somewhere that doesn't have Wi-Fi).  I think A Twilight Abduction was my most favorite of the Alex & Fiona stories.  Things came together just perfectly (IMO) for this extraordinary couple and their little one. 

Since Valentine's Day was two days ago, today's excerpt is all about love.
------------------------------------------

“It’ll be all right, my love,” I cajoled with a smile as bright as I could muster at the moment. I gently kissed his lips and ran my fingers through his hair. I wanted more from him than his self-pity. I’d missed my husband and selfishly wanted his focus all on me.



His eyes were a deep chasm of emotion. I lightly stroked his chest and any resistance he might have been feeling, instantly melted away. His hands slid to my face and pulled my mouth to his. His kiss was fierce, demanding, and passionate enough to take what it wanted.


I wasn’t about to put up a fight. I wanted everything and anything he could throw at me. I wanted someone focused on me–not my powers, my child, or my impending doom.


Passion rose between our souls. Everything around us faded away into the darkness. All I could see, feel, need was Alex. And nothing else mattered.


I slowly climbed on top of him. I straddled his lap while he continued to kiss me with as much longing and passion as I felt for him. His hands caressed the small of my back. Fingertips, as light as feathers slid under my shirt, moving slowly up my back, until they discovered the clasp of my bra. The clasp quickly gave way under his knowing fingertips.


My spine shivered as his fingers moved back down my back. They caught the bottom seam of my top and quickly pulled upward, exposing me to the man in charge. A deep sigh of pleasure escaped my lips as the shirt slid across the floor on the other side of the room, and we were left chest to chest.


His mouth soon abandoned mine in search of a more sensual location on my neck. It teased, licked, and nipped at just the right spot as my head fell back to allow more. I became lightheaded, digging my nails into his back to keep my balance. This is the kind of moment that people use to describe swooning. And boy was I swooning!


A moan escaped from Alex’s throat as I performed a bit of my own neck playing. My fangs made an appearance, as they begged and pleaded for me to take just a little. But it wasn’t time for that, just yet.


My nails scratched down his back and a groan of pleasure whispered in my ear. His hands slid down the back of my jeans and kneaded the rounded flesh. I could feel warmth spreading throughout my body with the core of it located south of the waistline.


Alex’s body writhed beneath me. The only thing holding us back from a full-blown explosion was the pair of denim jeans still in place. Urgency was building. The need to be as one was overtaking. The lust between us was controlling our actions.


Alex’s hands turned their attention to my bare breasts. His mouth swiftly joined in on the action. Teeth nipping, tongue wagging, mouth sucking; all pulling me further down into the depths of ecstasy.

If you're interested in picking up your own copy of A Twilight Abduction, stop by my website, Amazon, or any of your favorite bookstores.

Book Videos for the Alex & Fiona series

It's been a while since I've posted these, so I figured I'd share them here. :-)

A Midnight Infatuation


A Birth at Dawn


A Twilight Abduction

The curiosity of inspiration.

Inspiration is a funny thing. It can strike at anytime and at any place. But what amuses me is exactly what can cause that bout of inspiration.

Earlier today I was complaining to a friend about me being stumped with the current book I'm writing. I've been kind of stuck on what direction a particular section of the book needed to go in. I kind of knew what needed to happen, but not quite sure how I wanted to get there.

So I was complaining to this friend of mine and I just rambled on and on until ideas started flowing out one after another. Suddenly, the story just laid itself right out in front of me! Inspiration had struck! It was amusing to me afterwards because there I was complaining about having trouble with it and then WHAM it hit me over the head with a 2x4.

Alex & Fiona are definitely in for a journey with this newest book. What will happen to them? Who will be lost during this adventure? What new people will they meet along the way? I guess we both will just have to wait to find out when the book is finish. LOL!

I hope that everyone is having a nice week. Only 2 weeks and 1 day until school starts. I can definitely use the quiet to get my work done, but I'll miss sleeping late every day of the week. Ah well, you take the good (two kids out of my hair for almost 8 hours) with the bad (having to wake up at 6am five days a week).

Vampires, why do we love them so?

I was asked in an earlier interview about my love of modern vampires in the stories that I write and that I read. The interviewer had mentioned that when she thinks of vampires the first thing that comes to minds are the type of vamps that Bram Stoker wrote about. I assured her that was not my type of vampire.

My main vampire Alex may be 150 years old, but he has learned to change with the times and is what I would consider a modern-day man. He sexy, muscular, smart with a touch of humor, and he is strong enough to take care of his woman if she needs him to. Alex is also a fantastic lover!

Many people look at vampirism as a dirty, disgusting, nasty problem to be solved. But in my fictional world of vampires, the exchange of blood is more sexual, energizing, personal, and creates a connection between two willing partners. The fact that these creatures of night--who could take anyone they wanted--have chosen you to be the person to sustain their life is nothing short of intoxicating.

When the modern-day vampires are the kinds of men that women dream of why shouldn't we love them? The blood exchange--especially during sex--is no difference than any other bodily fluid exchange during intimate moments. My vampires are the stuff that dreams are made of. Even the "bad guys" have a positive or two underneath their psychotic exteriors... of course that positive could just be their nice hair, but that's still a positive, right? *chuckle*

There are many different types of vampires in the world of books, tv, and movies. You have the ugly, old, decrepit ones who kill just to say they did. You have the hot, brooding, makes-me-tingle-all-over ones who wish they'd never lived to seen their first feed. You have the ones who kill everything in sight without thinking about the consequences. You have the ones who live off of sewer rats because they can't stand the thought of taking blood from a human. And many, many, many more types out there in the literary world. But in my opinion, about 85% of the vampires out there are the type that would make my blood boil over, while me heart races, and my words stammer as thoughts of intimacy course through my brain. Mmmmm, steamy!

This is why I write the stories that I write. This is why I choose to fall in love with the ideas of modern-day vampires. This is why Alexander Paul Jenkins is the vampire he is today!

If you are a lover of vampires, feel free to tell me why. I love to hear what others think when it comes to a passion of mine. :-)

Today's the day!

Happy April 1st to everyone. I hope that you aren't tricked by any April's Fools Day jokes. It's never been something that we do, but I know many who greatly enjoy it.

Well, today is the big day... the release of A Birth at Dawn! YAY! So if you've been waiting for this much anticipated release, you can purchase your copy either on my website (autographed) or from the publisher's site here. It will still be a few weeks before A Birth at Dawn will be processed into the Amazon, Barnes & Noble, etc. bookstore systems. But if you're waiting on that, stay tuned here and I'll be announcing it once the process is complete.

If you haven't already read A Midnight Infatuation, it is highly recommended that you do so before beginning A Birth at Dawn. Each book stands on its own, but I always like to know the back story on characters when I read a series.

Ok, I guess that's it for now. I'm off to do my morning workout, walk the dog, start the laundry, clean up a little and then get to work on my writing for today. The next book in the Alex & Fiona series is coming along nicely. I'm hoping to complete the first draft by the time I go on vacation in July. *Fingers crossed*

Have a great Tuesday!!

Ooohhh, yay! A new book trailer!

Welcome to a brand new week. I hope that everyone isn't hung-over from all of the green beer last night. LOL!

Today I am happy to share with you, the brand new book trailer for A Birth at Dawn! YAY! I hope that you like it as much as I do.



If you can't see the above video box, you can click here and it will redirect you to the trailer's YouTube page. Keep in mind while you're watching the trailer, there will be a release month announced at the end. :-D

Happy President's Day!

Well, it's Monday again. The big girls are out of school all this week for President's Day & a "Mid-Winter Break". Luckily, they were pretty good today, without many problems. Of course, tomorrow all hell may break loose. LOL!

I've been busy on book edits today, and trying to stay focused and off the computer. Sometimes the computer just calls your name like the little "You've Got Mail" chime alerts you to a new message. What is it about being connected to cyber-space at all hours of the day? I just can't disconnect when I know someone is sending me a message.

To everyone waiting on A Birth at Dawn, you'll be happy to know that this book is even closer to being released. I'm *hoping* that it will be ready for release by the end of March. So be on the look-out for a release announcement soon.

To everyone reading this, I want to share one of the newest places on the internet that ha drawn my attention away from work... LTTM!

LTTM stands for Less Than Traditional Moms. This is a Yahoo Group for all the moms out there that don't quite fit into the "traditional" mold. As a lover of vamps, werewolves, witches, and numerous other paranormal creatures, pretty much fit right into the category. LOL!

If anyone is interested in joining our little group, enjoying some good old-fashion chatting, and getting to know other interesting mothers, stop by and sign up. I'm one of the moderators, so feel free to say hi and jump right in!

Ok, I guess that's it for today. I need to disconnect and get back to work before I have to start dinner and welcome the hubby home from a hard day's work. I hope that you have a wonderful week and don't forget to sign up for my monthly newsletter (use the blue & white box on the right), as the March issue will be sent out in two weeks. :-)
