Year in Review 2018 and Goals 2019 – Michael Mandrake/Sharita L

December 23, 2018 by SLira

Hello again. I must apologize for completely skipping November. *sighs* I was very busy with Breakable Faith and Taken and Crowned. Also, my twin, you know, the devilish muse BL, had some writing to do as well. So alas, we didn’t post anything in November. However, now I’m back to post about this year which has proved to be a breakout! Finally. No, I didn’t receive the dream book or movie deal. In fact, I don’t think I’d want it because that means compromising some of my fiction ideas. Oh and no, I didn’t make six figures. However, I did learn something more about getting closer to my writing goals. … Read more

Calisto's Quest - Michael Mandrake - Immortals

What is dark romance? Dark – A place or time with little to no light. Romance – A feeling of excitement and mystery associated with love. Greetings readers! Today, I’m blogging about dark romance. Right now, it’s a hot subgenre in fiction with many authors jumping on the bandwagon. First let’s discuss what is dark romance? Looking at the definitions above, perhaps we could see a feeling of love with very little light involved. I don’t mean actual light, but in a figurative sense. Perhaps you have a hero with questionable moralities. Think a vampire or maybe a demon. Or if you’re not going paranormal, perhaps a mobster, a murderer, … Read more

Summary: A New F/F Fantasy Romance from the author of Cynthia and Eve. Book 1 of 'The Fae Souls'. When I first arrived at the mansion, I couldn't remember anything. My name, how I'd got there or who the people were around me. I knew I was a woman, and the pink dress and brown ankle boots I wore felt vaguely familiar, but nothing more. It wasn't long before I was told my name was Celina. I was given a suite to stay in and encouraged to prepare for the mysterious Prince Eldran's masquerade party. I found everything I needed in my suite, other than the answers I sought. Fragments of memory hinted at dark experiences, at love and loss, but there was no context and I was uncertain about my history and what the future might hold for me. A stranger at the time, Sorcha found me alone as I sought solace in an empty room. I discovered she too had missing memories, and in her I found a person to talk to. A friend and more, but did we have a chance? A Masquerade in Time is a romantic novella of just over 20,000 words, which contains strong steamy content and language.

Summary: Pierre gave up on love a long time ago. He’s fine to have all that drama behind him. Lennox loves a good daddy… and a challenge. Before meeting Lennox, Pierre had never seen a hockey match. Now he can’t stop watching. He follows exactly one team. Well, one player: Lennox. Lennox is huge and an obvious philanderer. Pierre’s days of dealing with that mess are behind him. That doesn’t mean he can’t fantasize. Sometimes, he misses being young. He misses the chances he would have taken. But all that is behind him now. The first time Lennox literally ran into Pierre, he did what he always does: flirt. He never thought of Pierre again. Until he nearly plows the man down twice. A chance meeting at a New Year’s Eve party leads Lennox down a path he never expects to take. For once, he’s the one doing the chasing. Pierre is a little older and a lot more resistant to Lennox’s game. Lennox isn’t worried. He always gets his man. Hopefully, he doesn’t get trapped in his own net this time, and wind up pucked until the end. Pucked Until the End is the twelfth book in Charity Parkerson’s Thin Ice series. These books are steamy sports romances meant to heat up your day. This series is best enjoyed when read in order.
