It's a hostile take-over! (18+ only please)

Today I'm handing over the reigns to my dear friend and incredible author Bonni Sansom. Today she's here o talk to us about not just her latest novella, Jack's Christmas Wish, but a little about her as well. Alright, Bonni it's all yours. Take it away sweets.


Hi Heaven thanks for having me. First, I would like to start by introducing myself to everyone. I’m Bonni Sansom a full time mom, author and domestic goddess. I love to write hot steamy romance novels and my first release was on11/11/11.


 Jack’s Christmas Wish was originally a short story that ran amok. The characters took me on a journey (Yes, they talk to me) that led me from a short sweet love story to a BD/SM steamy romance. They were quite adamant about their desires. But the gist of the story is Lissa is a woman that’s hit hard times and takes a job as Santa’s sexy helper in a department store. Derek the hero is a Dom and the widowed father of little Jack and Jack asks Santa for a new mom for Christmas. Through Jack, Lissa and Derek meet with an instant attraction that spins into a whirlwind romance.
I really enjoyed these characters. They were easy to work with and Lissa never ceased to make me laugh with her humor. Little Jack was such a joy to write, reminding me of my daughter. 


One question that always comes up is “when did I know I wanted to be a writer”? I never knew I just wrote. It was just a natural thing for me. I’ve been writing since I could hold a pencil and don’t plan to stop. The first book I wrote took me about a year to complete, but I’ve gotten much quicker since then. On average I can crank out a book in about a month now. Since I’ve been writing professionally, it took me about three years to get published and I thank Sizzler Editions for that. 


Again Heaven it was a pleasure sitting with you and sharing my story with you. Thanks for having me. For a little treat I’m giving away one copy and I brought along an excerpt for everyone to enjoy. 18+ONLY!


Jack’s Christmas Wish

“Please Derek, touch me. I need you.” 
“You got it, sweetheart. Lay down on the seat for me.”
She scooted down giving him perfect access to her folds.
“That’s it baby.” He pushed her tiny skirt up exposing her thong. He ran his fingertip up and down her seam through the silky scrap of material, getting a whimper from her. She tipped her pelvis up seeking out the source of pleasure. He was going to torture her. Oh the sweet torture.
“Do you like that Lissa? Tell me what you want.”
“I love it and I want you to touch me. Please? Do it now. Don’t make me wait.”
He pulled the thong aside and licked her slit from her tiny hole to her clit.
She closed her eyes and just let herself feel. Feel him touch and lick her. Her hands itched to spear through his blond hair and hold him to her. She clutched the leather seat in her hands, having to have something to keep her grounded.
“Damn, you taste good baby.” He flattened his tongue and made another sweep of her slit. He stopped above her clit and fluttered the tip of his tongue over it.
“Ohmigod!” She writhed beneath his tongue. She had to move, she couldn’t be still. Her world was tilting on its axis.
He moved down further on the seat making the leather squeak. She had her head propped on the door watching his every move. Only when he grazed her clit did her eyes roll up in her head. She was lost to him.
“I can’t get enough of you. Open wider for me.”
She spread her legs as wide as the dash would let her. She was so wet, slick with her juices for him. Her breathing was ragged with tiny mewling noises escaping her lips. The air was thick with her musky scent.
She was going to lose her mind. It was too much pleasure, too much stimulation. She’d never experienced a lover like him before.
“Ah, yes. Ohmigod, please.” She had no idea what was falling from her lips and she didn’t care. All she wanted was this man touching her, pleasuring her. Gyrating, her hips she ground her clit onto his face, feeling his rough stubble abrade her delicate folds, adding to the sensation. She was almost there, almost ready to explode.
This is the best present a girl could get for Christmas. Ho, ho, ho, merry friggin’ Christmas and a happy New Year.
Her eyes rolled up in her head. This was it. 


Wow, what a great story and excerpt Bonni. I am so excited and can't wait to get my copy. I am sure our readers are just as excited to get theirs. Lucky for them Bonni has been kind enough to allow me to give one free copy away.  And don't worry if you're like me and have to rush out to buy a copy. You can still enter to win for a friend.

Six Sentence Sunday

Yes! I love Sundays! Today is the day i get to share Six Sentences of anything I want. Today I decided to give you a little more from Mesa Rising. Now remember folks, I do not consider dialogue to be part of the six sentences. If I did you'd get part of a conversation with no idea as to what is going on. Okay, now that we cleared that here is a recap in case you missed anything.

“Oh gawd no!” Millie shouted awakening Andre. In his fog, images of the previous night flashed in his head. He remembers going to the dark and dank strip club, the shots of PatrĂ³n coming one after another and much to his surprise, seeing Millie coming out of the back room with three large men.



 Of all he could remember, he couldn’t recollect how they ended up in the woods, let alone how she came to be dangling by her wrists from the branch of an ash tree.

“Millie!” Jumping to his feet, he raced to her desperately reaching for the knots that bound her. 


So,  we find Andre trying to free his ex-girlfriend Millie, from her binds against her warnings to leave her and run.


“Look at me Andre. If you don’t leave right now, you’re gonna find yourself in situation worse than at the mortuary.”





Andre hadn’t told Millie or anyone for that matter about his night locked inside the Mountain View funeral home. His gaze shifted down from the ropes toward her face.





“What the fuck?” Andre jumped back in shock by what he saw. No longer was she the beautiful woman he grown to know and fall in love with. Hanging before him was something different all together, a horribly mauled corpse. 
 
“The hunger is too strong. I can’t hold it any longer.”





 “You’re…you’re a…a zombie?”





“Yes! Now fucking run you dumb shit!”  Millie snapped her binds as if they were nothing more than thin sewing string.
Now we find Andre hiding in a tree. He realizes that Millie is no longer chasing him and no where to be seen. Now that you're all caught up, let's see what happens next!

Clueless as to how one day Millie was the image of fragile, porcelain angel and the next an oozing, super-fast and agile member of the zombie nation, he clung to the large redwood in hopes of not becoming a meal for the undead. Unable to hear over his pounding heart, Andre searched the surrounding forest floor for any sign that Millie was near. To his right the sound of leaves crunching caught his attention.

“Andre?” Millie’s sweet voice called. In his mind it was nothing more than a trick to flush him out.

“I know you’re up there. C’mon down. It’s okay now. I caught a deer a few yards back.” Andre looked below him at the now Millie he knew.

“Not happening, sweets. How do I know you’re not going to go all super cannibal on me again?”

“If I was that hungry to chase you down, that means we’ve been out here for more than three days and you’re just as hungry as I am. Come down and I’ll explain everything over a venison steak.”

“No. I think you can explain it from down there.”

“Fine suit yourself but the longer you wait the less likely the meat will remain any good. What do you want to know?”

“What the hell just happened? What the fuck are you?”

“You know what I am. The most common name is Zombie but I find that to be offensive. Except needing live flesh to survive we share nothing in common with pop culture’s definition of a Zombie. As for what happened you know as much as I do. How we got out here is beyond me. I can only imagine the men at the bar had a hand in this. Can you please come down now? I ate just enough to calm the change but I am far from full. If that deer lays for too long it will be no good to me and you’ll find yourself back on the menu.”

My Review of Lisa Worrall's Forever Dusk

EXCERPT:

"I cannot believe I let you talk me into this. What the fuck am I doing?" Jonah complained, picking at the stupid ruffles on the stupid shirt Theo had insisted he wear.
"Being a whiny little bastard," Theo replied. "You're driving me nuts, dude. This is supposed to be an evening of mystery and adventure, not an evening of listening to you bitch and moan." Looking again at the directions written on the square of paper in his hand, he made a right turn.
Jonah ran a hand through his chestnut colored hair and winced when the huge costume ring he was wearing got caught in the soft waves. "This club had better be worth all the hype. I look like a refugee from a Dracula audition." He glanced over at Theo as he turned down an alleyway and steered the car to a stop. "What's this girl's name again?"
"Clarissa," Theo said, on a breathy sigh.
Jonah rolled his eyes. There it was again, the same stupid dreamy-eyed look Theo had been getting ever since he'd met this girl in the student union last weekend. "Will you stop thinking with your dick and concentrate," Jonah grumbled. "What time did Goth girl say she was meeting us?"
"Eleven," Theo replied, shutting off the engine and palming his keys. Turning to look at Jonah, he licked his thumb and reached toward his friend. "Your eyeliner is smudged."
"Dude," Jonah cringed, batting Theo's hand away. "I'll deal with my own eyeliner thanks. Which has got to be the weirdest thing I've ever said." Pulling down the mirror on the visor, he swiped a thumb underneath his eye.
Theo shrugged, glancing at his watch and pulling at the black ruffled shirt he was wearing. "I don't know why you're making such a fuss about a little bit of make-up. Don't you people wear it all the time?"
"You people?" Jonah huffed incredulously. "You're lucky we're friends, pal, or I'd be punching you in your stupid face right now. Just because I'm gay does not mean I wear lip gloss, eyeliner, and mince around in a pink tutu." He frowned at his best friend. "I find your stereotypical remarks offensive. But then I find most things about you offensive."
"Says the guy in the tight leather pants and satin shirt," Theo drawled back, not the slightest bit put out at the slur upon his character.
Jonah growled something about Theo's parentage not being quite legal and got out of the car, slamming the door behind him. The cold night air immediately permeated the thin fabric of the ruffled satin and he folded his arms across his chest in an attempt to retain some body heat. He thought of his nice warm room, with its nice warm couch and its nice warm TV. Jonah never really knew how he let Theo talk him into these things. Surely he knew well enough by now not to be sucked in when the "best friend" card was played? Obviously not, his inner voice whispered in his ear. If you did, you wouldn't be standing in a cold, dark alley dressed like an Anne Rice reject, while Theo waited for the flavor of the week.

What did I think of Forever Dusk? 

It was a dark and stormy club…. Okay, maybe that’s a little cheesy, unlike Lisa Worrall’s vampire M/M erotica, Forever Dusk. I know what you’re thinking, “Oh my goodness Heaven, you’re LDS and you read a vampire book?”  I’m inactive, so yes I did! *wink* I know I swore off novels that had anything to do with vampires, but this one, I could not escape the draw. Being a religious follower of Lisa Worrall’s blog (http://www.lworrall.blogspt.com), I never stood a chance against her fluid writing, in depth descriptions, and sultry scenes. 



Needless to say, when Forever Dusk released, I had to download my copy. I will admit part of me was hesitant to open my Ereader. M/M activities aren’t high on my ‘enjoy’ list. Before you judge that statement, let’s be clear on one thing, I do not judge or discriminate against anyone no matter their race, creed, gender, lifestyle or sexual preferences. We are all one race! So what is there to judge? Okay, enough of the PSA and back to the book.



Once I got past my own temporary close mindedness, I found myself clinging to every page of Forever Dusk. Right out of the gate, I felt as if I was, there watching the characters, Jonah and Theo, follow Clarissa into the vampiric (is that even a word? Doesn’t matter! It is now!) themed night club. I watched as Jonah made his way to the bar and was introduced to Sebastian, the totally hot club owner. Gay or straight, I would do either of these men in the bat of an eyelash. *mmm a  Heaven sammich*



What happens next? I will not divulge the details. It’s just too juicy to spoil. I can only tell you that Lisa Worrall has perfected the art of writing one hell of a hot scene. You’re saying to yourself right now, “But its two guys. How could that be hot?” As I read each sentence of carnal urgency, I didn’t see two men.  I saw two people sharing an intense, euphoric, sexual experience most only wish they could even come close to. *no pun intended on the come part*.



Everything from the clothes, to the club, right down to the awesomely, nitty gritty sex scene, Lisa Worrall gives you front row seats to the best movie your brain can conjure up. And she has given me a whole new genre to explore. Forever Dusk is a must read for anyone who enjoys Erotica. Even if M/M isn’t your thing, Lisa Worrall’s writing style will definitely captivate you!



I give this book 5 out of 5 Demons!



 Where can you get your copy? That's easy peasy and the best $2.99 you'll ever spend!

Jared was in no mood to mess around when he got home. All he wanted was to crack open his bottle of 2005 Bouchard Corton Charlemagne and fade away in the new book, Forever Dusk by Lisa Worrall, Eric bought him for his birthday. No sooner had he shut the apartment door behind something grabbed him from behind.

“Give me all your cock and balls!” The man demanded in a playful tone.

“Damn it Eric. You scared the crap out of me.”

“You think that’s scary wait ‘til you see what I have waiting for you in the bedroom, Lover.”

SIX SENTENCE SUNDAY

Today is a one of my favorite blog posting days. I get to post six sentences from anything I want. I had intended to post six sentences from my work in progress Vineyard House Chronicles. But due to the popularity of my Flash Fiction Friday post, I decided to continue the story of Andre & Millie from my other work in progress, Mesa Rising.Just a small note, I do not consider dialogue part of my six sentences. if I did, you'd get part of a conversation with no clue as to what is going on.

Here's a recap of what you missed Friday:

“Oh gawd no!” Millie shouted awakening Andre. In his fog, images of the previous night flashed in his head. He remembers going to the dark and dank strip club, the shots of PatrĂ³n coming one after another and much to his surprise, seeing Millie coming out of the back room with three large men.



 Of all he could remember, he couldn’t recollect how they ended up in the woods, let alone how she came to be dangling by her wrists from the branch of an ash tree.

“Millie!” Jumping to his feet, he raced to her desperately reaching for the knots that bound her. 


So,  we find Andre trying to free his ex-girlfriend Millie, from her binds against her warnings to leave her and run. Now that you're all caught up here is my Six Sentence Sunday entry. Enjoy!


“Look at me Andre. If you don’t leave right now, you’re gonna find yourself in situation worse than at the mortuary.”



Andre hadn’t told Millie or anyone for that matter about his night locked inside the Mountain View funeral home. His gaze shifted down from the ropes toward her face.



“What the fuck?” Andre jumped back in shock by what he saw. No longer was she the beautiful woman he grown to know and fall in love with. Hanging before him was something different all together, a horribly mauled corpse. 
 
“The hunger is too strong. I can’t hold it any longer.”



 “You’re…you’re a…a zombie?”



“Yes! Now fucking run you dumb shit!”  Millie snapped her binds as if they were nothing more than thin sewing string.

And there you have it folks, My six sentences. Still not enough? Be sure to check out the other great writers on their blogs!
