The Oath, Book 1: Bound is now available! BDSM/fantasy/paranormal http://adriannebrennan.blogspot.com/2009/01/oath-book-1-bound-is-now-available.html I am pleased to announce that book 1 in The Oath series, Bound, has been released by Freya's Bower! If you enjoy tales of magick, paranormal erotica, sex, BDSM and secret societies, this may be the book for you! Genre: BDSM/Fantasy
Rating: Sizzling
Book Length: Sips
Price: $1.25 Blurb:</p> Years ago, Lila pledged herself to the Greek god Dionysus, and the act of devotion changed her entire life. Now, her desire to serve has brought her to the doorstep of a secret society known only as "The Order". Through sexual magick and ritual submission she can become her truest self and achieve her magickal destiny.</p>
But the trials of the initiation challenge even the strongest of wills. Can Lila's transformation through erotic servitude bring her closer to fulfilling her dreams?
Bound: Lila begins to learn the importance of the oath she has sworn and what it means to be bound.
Excerpt:
Lila studied him with care. All she saw, with the black painted mask upon his face, were his intense, dark eyes that bored into her skull. Nervous, she swallowed hard. No turning back. The gentleman with the white gem grabbed her hair and yanked her head back. Lila sucked in her breath, unable to control the thrill that ran through her body at the rough gesture. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw the black-gemmed male take hold of a rather elaborate flogger. From it hung numerous, long strands of thin black leather. With a sharp crack, it struck her side, and she winced. The sound reverberated in the small room. Lightheadedness filled her, and she surveyed her situation. Three men surrounded her and had her tied to what appeared to be two wooden planks in the form of a huge X, and this for the purpose of attaining self-knowledge? I must be crazy. | | 4:55 am |

 | The Longest Night - holiday short within the Dark Moon series by Adrianne Brennan
Winter Solstice marks the longest night of the year, a time for honoring many different holiday traditions. For vampires, observing the day when the sun shines the least is a sacred event.
Merideth's girlfriend Erin has invited her to honor this occasion at her apartment. Sneaking away from her duties at Clan Gladius, Merideth finds a warm and passionate embrace awaiting her to distract her from her woes. But with so much on their minds, how will Erin and Merideth spend their longest night together? Excerpt: It didn't take long for the two women to divest themselves of their clothing, and a dazed Merideth found both herself and Erin on the floor, their garments lying beneath them.
She caressed Erin's pale flesh and savored the sensation of skin upon skin. Erin's skin was almost as fair as her own, she realized as her fingertips trailed lightly over her stomach.
Erin groaned. "Oh, I've missed you so much, Meri."
Meri. That was Kalia's nickname for her too. She blinked away the thought. Merideth missed Kalia, but she also adored this dark-and-fair woman lying underneath her, her skin warm and inviting to the touch.
The sharp sensation of teeth scraping her nipple interrupted Merideth's thoughts. She cried aloud.
Blood, I want her so bad.
"Just think," Erin murmured, her mouth muffled by Merideth's breast, "we have a nice, long night ahead of us." | | | 4:55 am |
Oh the weather outside is frightful.... http://adriannebrennan.blogspot.com/2008/12/oh-weather-outside-is-frightful.html I'm awaiting a huge winter storm that's due to hit my area tomorrow. The joys of living in the New England! Aside from shoveling, I may stay inside and make some nice mulled wine--a favorite holiday treat of mine. :) Does anyone have any favorite foods, beverages, or traditions that they typically have during this time of year? Things which you MUST have that make the winter season good? I hate winter, so anything I do must be absolutely fabulous to get me to have fun. LOL Speaking of winter, I have some free holiday reads, one which is up and the other which will be up soon: http://www.adriannebrennan.com/ln.htmlhttp://www.adriannebrennan.com/amor.htmlLove & Magic, -A |
