2014: Quarter 1 Releases

An Anthology of Blades is the sixth volume in The Simpson Anthologies and is available from Kindle, Kobo, Smashwords, CreateSpace (in both large and small print), DriveThruFiction, and OmniLit, as well as all outlets to which Smashwords distributes, which include Barnes and Noble Nook and iTunes. While Smashwords, DriveThruFiction, and Kobo had scheduling options, there may be a short delay before CreateSpace, Kindle and some Smashwords distributors list this title.

Axes, swords, knives, cursed, blessed or from the Otherlands, this anthology is all about things that cut, slice, dice or amputate. From a buried blade housing one of the protagonists of an ancient battle, to axes wielded by a barbarian at the crossroads of destiny, all the short stories and poems contained in this anthology have one common theme—they are some kind of blade.

Candy Cane Dancer is a tale of erotic suspense, of bondage and capture and of a woman, who dances for her lover as well as her life. CandyCane Dancer contains explicit sex scenes and language, paddling, dubious consent, bondage, murder and a menage. It is not suitable for readers under 18 years of age.

Captured by the murderer who has been stalking the dancers at the Candy Cane gentleman’s club, Martinette finds she must dance for her life—and discovers she has fallen for her captor. When he captures a colleague, Mayani, Martinette discovers something else—that a paddle can bring pleasure, and so can bending to her lover’s lash while sharing intimacies with a friend. But her love is tainted, for her lover is a fairy of the sea, able to appear beautiful of face and voice, but as ugly as sin in the spirit. Martinette knows it is only a matter of time before he will turn on both her and Mayani. Will Seline, their dancing friend, be able to find help in time? And can the werewolves protecting the Candy Cane track him down before he tires of one, or both, of them?

CountryRush is the first book in the Bookstore Romances series which centers around the characters who work in, or pass through, Highway's Book Emporium, a bookstore in a city very much like Melbourne or Canberra.

When Taylor helps a tall, dark stranger hide from men pursuing him, she embroils herself in the seedier side of city life. With her mother watching over her seriously injured father in hospital, Taylor has dropped out of university to help pay the bills, taking on a second job to do so. The last thing she needs is a rapid exit from the city and a quick trip to the country, but that's exactly what her tall-dark-and-handsome insists on. With a nasty criminal element on their heels, the pair of them take a fast train and a slow bus out of town, before fleeing to a country property to try to work out how to escape their dilemma.

Country Rush is the first book in the Bookstore Romances series, and will be available from Smashwords, Amazon-Kindle, Kobo, AllRomanceEbooks and CreateSpace, as well as being distributed from Nook, Kobo, Barnes and Noble and iTunes.
