Is it starting to heat up where you are? I don’t know about you, but I’m good and ready for bikinis, poolside parties, and maybe even a beach trip or two. I’m delighted to take part in the Caliente Blog Hop that Four Seduced Muses has put together and to celebrate all things hot and spicy.
Leave me a comment below and let me know which of my books you’d like to win ~ and you’ll be entered in my drawing for that very book.
*Note: Curse of the Tiger will be available for prerelease on May 27th, so you can certainly choose that one if you like and I’ll send you a copy as soon as it’s available.

Here’s a little taste of my Ellora’s Cave Exotika release, Sand, Sin and Tequila, that’ll get you in the mood for an uninhibited trip south of the border:
“Where’d you get the Don Julio?” Ramsay asked her. “From the duty-free shop in the airport?”
“Oh, no,” Jess shook her head, rummaging about in her beach bag. “Jorge the bartender brought it to me. He brings me all kinds of good stuff. You just have to know how to tip here and the waiters will bring you anything you might want.”
“See, Ram?” Arden said reproachfully. “I told you we should have been tipping more.”
“Babe!” Ramsay protested. “We’re great tippers, trust me. I know these resort employees deserve it. I just wouldn’t have guessed that an entire premium bottle of tequila was on the bar menu.”
Jess cleared her throat and held up three shot glasses. “Also courtesy of Jorge,” she announced. She pulled a thick, dog-eared paperback from her bag to use as an improvised table. Arden’s eyes widened when she saw the cover. Two nude women were embracing, their full breasts pressed together, and another woman stood to one side with her bare leg wrapped around one woman’s thigh. The title, Tangled up with Tina, curled across the top of the book in ornate red font like an X-rated beacon for smut.
“Looks like entertaining reading,” Arden quipped, blushing as Jess carefully poured three tequila shots.
“Huh?” Jess asked. She recorked the liquor bottle and followed Arden’s gaze to the novel’s cover. “Oh, yeah. It’s pretty hot. I like women, so it gets me all turned on. You’re welcome to borrow it if you like. I’ve got some other great reads back in my room.” She handed Arden and Ram their glasses and held her own up in front of her. “Although, watching you and your husband together in the ocean got me pretty excited too,” Jess added with a chuckle. “Bottom’s up!” she said brightly, and tossed back the tequila. Self-consciousness prickled uncomfortably at Arden at the realization that she and Ram had been observed at their most intimate by a total stranger. Jess’s casual attitude was contagious, though, and Arden’s embarrassment dissipated.
Arden shot a glance at Ram. He nodded and touched his glass to hers. They swallowed the strong, heady liquid. Arden pursed her lips as the heat spread through her throat and belly. “Yum,” she said appreciatively. “I didn’t know I liked straight tequila.”
“Well, the good stuff’s fantastic, and the bad stuff’s undrinkable,” Jess informed her matter-of-factly. “Fortunately for us, Jorge supplies me with only the best from the Aventura bar.”
“Because you know how to tip him,” Ram offered, licking tequila from his lips.
“Exactly!” Jess said cheerfully. “Just ask Jorge. I’m an excellent tipper. Ya’ll want a second round?” She lined up the three glasses again and poured.
They raised their shots and clinked them. “To new friends!” Ram said.
“To drinking good tequila on the beach!” Arden added.
“To hot girl-on-girl romances!” Jess offered. They swallowed their drinks.
Arden suspected that Jess was referring to her racy beach literature, but her stomach fluttered as she watched Jess’s slender neck move with her swallow of tequila. Could Jess be thinking about a little hot romance action with me? she wondered. She did say she likes women…
Let me know which of my ebooks you’d like to win, and then keep on clicking to the other steamy sites on the Caliente hop. The hop ends on May 12.
Best of luck, and thanks so much for stopping by.
