Bio:
Born and raised in the small town of Mexico, New York, Kara was an only child who was forced to find ways to entertain herself. Playing make believe with her Barbie dolls and stuffed animals was her first real tasted of storytelling before she became old enough to develop a love affair with the written word.

In early 2010, Kara picked up her very first erotic romance novel, and she was instantly hooked. She loves to write contemporary romance, erotica and young adult romance. Currently she has several full-length novels in the works, a series of novellas, and a handful of short stories. Kara is an active member of the CNY Writers Haven, the Romance Writers of America and the CNY Romance Writers.
Today, Kara resides in New Haven, New York with her husband, five kids and three cats. When she's not reading or writing, she's thinking about reading and writing. And when she's not doing that, she's spending time with her family and friends.

Excerpt:

Teghan walked to the door and opened it. "Get out."

He approached her. "I'm not leaving." They stared at each other in a silent battle of wills. "I know I broke a promise to you and I'm sorry, but I come here to fess up, to make things right and I find you with another guy. I'm the one who should be angry here, Teghan, not you." He crossed his arms over his chest. There was no way in hell he was leaving when he knew she was so angry with him--all though he still didn't know why she was so pissed. 

"Fine." She swung the door closed.

Donnie hated the way her voice had flattened. "We can get through this," he said.

She faced him. "You wanna know the best part of Alex's message?"

He cringed. God only knows what Alex said. "No." He really didn't want to know, but knew he had to hear it.

"Alex said he still loves me, and that's why he made that bet with you. The one where you two bet me over a basketball game. You know the one I'm talking about, don't you, Donnie?"

Donnie looked at her, stunned. "What?" Of everything Alex could've told her, Donnie hadn't expected Alex to tell her that. Why had he? Surely it didn't look good for Alex either.

"Don't play dumb. I want to know what the bet was," she said.

"Does it really matter?"

"Yes." Teghan folded her arms across her chest and leaned up against the door.

Donnie sighed. "Alex and I bet on a basketball game. I win and I get to take you out. Alex wins and I walk away from you for good. It was just a stupid bed, Teghan. It didn't mean anything. We were drinking and...."

"Who won?" Donnie looked down at the floor. "Who won?" she repeated.

Excerpt:

     The only things she was wearing were her cotton panties and silk camisole. She could see her scars peeking out from behind her clothing, She covered it with her hand the best she could. His gaze raked over her body and he grabbed her wrist.

     "What're you doing?"

     Heat flushed her cheeks as he looked at her scar. "I didn't....it's not the most pleasing thing to look at. I know."

     He cocked an eyebrow and then ripped his cotton shirt in half, baring his chest to her. Where she could see his own nasty scar on his shoulder.

     "Now we're even."

     Adele smiled and touched his scar. He let out a hiss and then growled again, snatching her hand away.

     "You better take off your cami, or I'll shred it from your body."

      After the way he'd destroyed his t-shirt she had no doubt he would. She sat up and pulled it off over her head. The cool air of the room made her nipples pucker, even more so.

     Jared growled in appreciation. "What do you want me to do first?"

     "You're asking me?"

     He grinned. "We have all night and I'm a gentleman and it's always ladies first."

     She wrapped her arms around his neck. "I'm game with almost anything."

     "Good."

     Before she knew it she was flat on her back again. He whisked her panties down and spread her legs wide, hungrily gazing down at her pussy. He ran his fingers over her scar and frowned.   

     "It's not right you were given so much pain." His eyes twinkled as he moved between her legs. "But I promise you I can make you forget any pain you incurred."

Hello and welcome to For Whom The Books Toll. I'm glad you stopped by today, I'm hosting Lashell
Collins and her book Pierced by Danger, book 1 in the Pierced Trilogy.

Blurb:

When stunningly beautiful drilling heiress, Samantha Colby is mugged one night, her misfortune leads to an encounter with the handsome and mysterious Detective Joshua Pierce. The reluctant celebutante is immediately taken by his rugged good looks, his take-charge attitude and his quiet concern for her safety. Unable to stop the disturbing thoughts suddenly running through his mind at the sight of her, Detective Pierce finds himself strangely captivated by her beauty, her innocence and her charm.

Inexplicably drawn to one another and unable to fight it, the pair embark on a passionate physical affair. But despite the safety and love Samantha feels when she's with him, she soon discovers that the good detective is a tormented man, haunted by ghosts and memories that he can't forget. But when it becomes clear that Samantha's mugging was only the beginning of her trouble, can Pierce find a way to quiet the demons that threaten to consume him in order to keep her safe, or will he allow his tortured past to destroy them both?

With heavy doses of romance, eroticism and heart, the Pierced Trilogy is a sweet tale of finding love, overcoming your past, and learning to hope for the future.

CBP Jayne Kingston Blog Tour

Hello and Welcome to my blog. Today, I'm hosting Jayne Kingston.
One lucking winner tour wide will win a $25 gc to Amazon or Barnes & Noble plus a pdf copy of a book from Jayne's backlist!


Title: Key Party                                          
Series: Mischievous Matchmaker book 1
Genre: Contemporary Erotic Romance
Flame rating: Scorching
Released: June 5, 2013
Publisher: Ellora's Cave
Dates: June 5-June 23, 2013


Blurb:
After five years of living abroad, Rachel has returned to Chicago.
As a welcome-home present, one of her best friends throws a '70's-
style key party. A night of mingling and anonymous sex with one of
Petra's hunky friends seems perfect.
Petra knows about the crush Rachel had on Ben in college, and she rigs the game so Rachel ends up with the very fine young doctor. But Petra doesn't know the whole story. Rachel never told her friend about the scorching-hot-make-out session that is now Rachel's go-to sexual fantasy.
And neither of them could know Ben is more than looking forward to showing Rachel every carnal moment she missed when she left without finishing what they'd started that night.


Excerpt:
He was circling her, moving around her slowly as though he was a
great dark wolf-sizing her up, his prey. As much as she wanted the
clothes to go flying and the fun to begin, she was enjoying the way he was drawing out the moment.
"We don't have to do this, Ben," Rachel offered, suddenly and hugely embarrassed to have been so obviously set up by her friend.
The that he remembered her was one thing. Still wanting anything to do with her after the way she'd run out on him that night back in college, and then never contacted him again, was another.
For as nervous as she was to finally have him in her bedroom, the absolute last thing she wanted was for him to back out and leave. How many years had she been replaying the night they'd made out on his couch in her head? How many times had she imagined going back to finish what they'd started?
Really, there were too many to count.
"Oh, no," he taunted, moving around her again. "I'm not letting you get away so easily this time," he breathed close to her ear.
She could feel the heat of his body against her back. His fingertips brushed her neck just below her hairline. Her skin rippled with goose bumps and a fresh wave of heat rolled out from her core.
"You and I have some unfinished business to attend to, don't we?"

When Jayne Kingston was growing up she spent many hours daydreaming about a time when she could flee to too-small town in Ohio where she grew up and run laughing for the sunny West Coast. Of course she stuck around and raised her family in that small town instead, and doesn't regret it for a moment. Now she spends her days dreaming about the delicious fun two people can have while falling in love.
