EDIT: The contest is now CLOSED. Thanks to everyone who entered! I'll post the number and the winners as soon as I get a chance. :) I also realized Monday is a holiday here in the US, and there isn't any mail, so the winners will get an extra day to reply. LOL
WINNERS ARE POSTED HERE.
Stay tuned for the next giveaway!
---
Took Hubby to the airport this morning. :( I've got nearly two weeks on my own while he's in Ohio visiting family. Had to get up waaaaaay too frakking early, but consoled myself with Starbucks and breakfast from McDonald's. LOL
I'm sure Gidget and I can get into plenty of trouble...
Yep, the screaming cats picture. You know what that means... CONTEST TIME!
Okay, as I mentioned on Facebook the other day, in the process of cleaning stuff up I put together ten envelopes of swag: bookmarks, autographed bookplate stickers and cover pics, etc.
Here's how you can possibly win one of these...
I've used random.org to pick a random number between 1-100. The ten people guessing the number or who are closest to the number will get it. In the event there's a tie between two people on opposite ends of the number, I'll either pick the one with the lower guess or pack another envelope. (Depends on how much pain I'm in after doing all the chores Hubby usually does in addition to writing. LOL Thank the Goddess for Flylady!)
ONE guess per person. Leave a comment in the...comments. If Blogger wants to make you "anonymous" make sure you put your name or handle in the comment so I have a way of identifying you. I will pick the winners on this Friday (8/30) at some point (when I remember to do it, to be honest LOL). I'll post it on my blog, and if you don't claim your prize by Sunday, I'll pick someone else, because I'll probably go to the post office on Monday and want to get them out the door.
Open to anyone in the world as long as you're of legal age in your place of residence, giveaways like this aren't prohibited where you live, no cash value, yadda-yadda-yadda legalese blah blah OH NOES TEH LEGALZZZZZ!
Good luck!
Snippet: Love Slave for Two

Tuesday, August 27, 2013
Here's a blast from the past. :) A snippet from my first menage, Love Slave for Two (which is technically the second book in the series because of the prequel, Beginnings).
Enjoy. :)
--
Both men stayed home, carefully avoiding the other. She couldn’t keep them in the same room for more than a few minutes at a time. Thomas let Tyler make lunch. After they finished eating, he wordlessly helped clean up the kitchen. Ah good. Finally, a thaw.
She needed to act before her afternoon pain pill knocked her out. It had to be today. The tension in the air suffocated her. She wanted to curl up with her boys—both of them.
When they finished cleaning the kitchen she called them into the living room to stand before her. She’d retrieved her phone from the office on her last potty trip. Tyler’s BlackBerry was clipped to his slacks.
She held out her hand. “Tyler, give me your phone.”
“What?”
She snapped her fingers. “Give it.” Puzzled but compliant, he unclipped the holster and handed it to her.
Thomas watched, curious.
She studied her boys for a long moment then used the remote to mute the TV. She deliberately kept her voice soft.
“I want you to stay silent and listen. Simply nod or shake your heads unless I ask you a question requiring an answer, understand?”
The men glanced at each other, but nodded.
“Good. I love you. Both of you, got that? Not one or the other. We were perfectly happy a little over two weeks ago, and I want that happiness back. Do you still love me?”
They immediately nodded.
“Do you still love each other?”
The men nodded—Tyler first, without hesitation.
“Good.” She let the silence settle for a moment, allowing them to ponder that. “Am I still your little slave?”
They nodded.
“Are you still both my masters?”
Nods.
“This morning, you have each promised me you’d do whatever I asked. Did you mean it?”
Another glance at each other, but they nodded.
“Strip.”
Thomas started to say something and she pointed at him. “Did I say you could speak? That was an order, not a question.”
His mouth snapped shut, and he shook his head.
The men looked at her, then each other, and started undressing.
She smiled, nodding. “Very good,” she purred. “That pleases me.”
When they stood naked before her, she let them stand there for a few long minutes before speaking. “Thomas, why did you fall in love with Tyler?”
“What?”
“Did you not hear the question, or did you not understand it?”
He frowned, studying her. She saw the wheels turning in his head, trying to figure out what she was up to. She struggled to keep her gaze off Tyler. She knew Tyler understood, and Nevvie didn’t want Thomas to think Tyler was in on this, tag-teaming him and backing him into a corner where his ego would force him to resist her efforts.
Thomas finally answered. “I fell in love with him for a lot of reasons.”
“Did you guys have sex on the first date?” She already knew this but had to make him remember.
He looked at the floor. “No. We went out for coffee.” She watched him steal a glance at Tyler, who stood with his arms crossed while studying the ceiling fan.
“What happened on your date?”
“We talked for about four hours.”
“Tell me about your next date. What did you do?” Again she knew this, but in light of her recent insights she now understood why Tyler did what he did.
“He called me the next day and asked if I wanted to go with him to a Lightning game. The Thrashers were in town. I said sure.”
“And?”
Thomas didn’t speak at first. Then, with a soft voice full of memories, “He got us box seats, center ice. Expensive seats.”
“Was it a good game?”
He shrugged. “I was rooting for the Thrashers, but it didn’t matter that the Bolts won. I normally rooted for them.”
“How did Tyler like it?”
A hint of a smile. “It was his first hockey game ever.” Thomas shook his head. “He thought an icing call was when the players cut hard and sprayed snow.” She smiled, as did Tyler. Thomas finally looked at his lover. “He didn’t know what checking meant. I had to explain it all to him, why they’d stop playing when the light at the officials’ bench went on, what a power play was, everything. It was cute.”
“If he’d never been to a hockey game before, why did he take you?”
Thomas remained quiet for a long moment. “Because I’d mentioned it when we had coffee. We were discussing sports and I said I liked hockey.”
“Tell me about your next date.”
“He cooked me dinner.”
“What’d he make?”
“Pork chops and sweet potato soufflé.”
“Interesting choice. Most people would try to impress with steak or something fancy.”
Thomas looked at the ceiling. She knew she’d made progress because his eyes moistened. “All right. He could have written my biography by our third date, and we went out two weeks before I even asked him about his family. I was an insensitive asshole. Point made.”
“No, point not made,” she insisted. “Turn and face each other.”
They looked at her, but complied.
“Move closer.”
They inched closer, still not touching, but she let them be. “What did Tyler give you your first Christmas together when you were dating?” She knew they’d only been together a couple of months at that point.
Thomas frowned then studied his feet again. “A Frank Lloyd Wright book I’d been looking for and couldn’t find because it was out of print. I couldn’t find any copies. He snagged a mint first edition.”
“What did you give him?” He didn’t answer. “Thomas?”
“All right.” He sighed. “I gave him a Wal-Mart gift card.” He looked at her. “Yes, I know, I was a schmuck. He hadn’t had time to wear off on me yet. I was still in grad school for chrissake.”
She laughed. Tyler smiled. Tyler had educated Thomas in many ways since then. “What did he say when you gave it to him?”
“He acted like it was the best thing he’d ever got.”
She let that sink in a moment before softly asking, “Why did you fall in love with Tyler?”
Thomas rubbed his nose. “Because he made me feel like I was the most important person in the world. He didn’t try to change me. I know I’m not stupid, but he’s classy and he never made me feel like I wasn’t, even back then. Because I was still in school and making shit money, and frankly I was a loud-mouthed asshole jock back then, but he wasn’t ashamed to take me to meet his friends or the professors he worked with. He was always proud of me even though his friends turned their noses up at me because I wasn’t classy enough in their eyes.”
He took a deep breath and finally met Tyler’s steady gaze. “He made me feel loved.”

Here's a snipped from Pinch Me.

She took a deep breath and forced the words out. “I think maybe I need to live by myself for a little while. Try to figure things out.”
His face shifted into an unreadable mask. “You don’t want to see me anymore?”
“I do want to see you. And that’s not what I meant.” She struggled to force the words out. “I need time to figure out what my next step is.”
“Can’t you trust me when I tell you what we were to each other?”
“That’s not fair.” She stood and walked over to the windows to stare out at the wetlands silhouetted against the setting sun. “I’m not saying I doubt you. It’s just I don’t know to what extent I used to let you influence my decisions. I still have to figure out who I am. Can’t you understand that?”
He pointed to his head. “Up here, yes.” He pointed to his chest. “In here, it feels like someone’s ripped out my guts and stomped them. Every day I see you, I’m afraid to touch you, I’m afraid to say things to you that weeks ago I took for granted. I can still picture the last time we made love like it was yesterday, can still feel your fingers on my back, can still hear the sound of your voice, remember the way your hair smelled. That’s not going away anytime soon. You have a lifetime to remember. If I lose you, I have a lifetime to forget.”

"Stay calm, have courage, and wait for signs."

Friday, August 23, 2013
That's one of my favorite quotes. I don't know if Craig Johnson, author of the Longmire series of books, got it from somewhere else or not, but I don't care.
This week has been a mix of that. Usually, release day weeks are, for me, a happy time. Especially one a week after FetCon.
Having to say goodbye to our old Lab, Scudder, on Tuesday afternoon has pretty much sucked the joy out of it for me.
So all I can do is...
Stay calm, have courage, and wait for signs.
That's not always easy to do, but I'm trying.
With indie publishing being what it is, flexible and fast, I was able to insert a modified dedication to Scudder (who was the inspiration for Doogie in the book) into Pinch Me.
This book is one I've actually had on the burner for...well, over ten years. I got the idea for it from the Barenaked Ladies' song of the same title. (I've trimmed the lyrics down to hit the highlights.)
It's the perfect time of year
Somewhere far away from here
I feel fine enough, I guess
Considering everything's a mess
There's a restaurant down the street
Where hungry people like to eat
I could walk, but I'll just drive
It's colder than it looks outside
...
Pinch me, pinch me
'Cos I'm still asleep
Please God, tell me
That I'm still asleep
...
On an evening such as this
It's hard to tell if I exist
...
It's like a dream, you try to remember but it's gone, then ya
Try to scream but it only comes out as a yawn, when ya
Try to see the world beyond your front door
The idea for the story immediately smacked me between the eyes. That happens frequently. (Taking it beyond an idea is a different story.) Unfortunately, it sort of languished despite having most of it written. I just couldn't shake the feeling that it was missing something. Yeah, it was a complete story, lots of conflict, lots of action, lots of energy.
But...
Yawn.
I'd pull it out every so often and look at it and then put it away again. I honestly didn't know what it was missing, and while I thought maybe I'd go ahead and self-pub it as a romantic mystery, I just...
Didn't know.
Fast forward to Bash this year, at the end of May. (It's an annual BDSM convention here in the area.) I was literally finishing up Two Geeks and Their Girl to submit it when we got there. And at one point during some downtime, I pulled open the file for Pinch Me.
And it smacked me between the eyes what was missing.
I immediately rewrote the first and second chapters in less than an hour and the rest of the story just automagically filled out the "missing bits" in my brain.
Yes, I'll be the first to admit the amnesia trope is common. (To be fair, it wasn't AS common when I first got the idea for it years ago. LOL And I'd originally wrote it as a suspense, not a romance.) But what happens when a woman not only has to try to regain her memory, but her fiance is her Master and is afraid to tell her about that part of their life?
And now (channelling Paul Harvey) you know...the rest of the story. LOL
So I hope you enjoy Pinch Me. It also allowed me a chance to revisit and update other characters from other books in what I've now dubbed the Suncoast Society series.

Cover reveal: Hope Heals (mfm)
at
3:33 PM
Monday, August 19, 2013
Thanks to everyone for the love and support. I called our vet and made the appointment to take Scudder in tomorrow afternoon. My son wants to be there when we do it.
At least one happy thing happened today. I just received my cover for Hope Heals, and it gave me a desperately needed laugh.
Yes, a reader has already pointed out it's a cow, not a steer.
No, I'm not asking them to change it. I'm too tickled at the fact that they included the tennis ball and the goat. LOL
Blurb:
Sarah’s world shatters when her husband’s killed in the wreck that injures her young son, Jason. Worse, Sarah discovers painful betrayals that make remaining in New York City with her hateful mother-in-law impossible. Moving home to Florida to live with her widowed father is their only option.
You can go home again, but it’s not the home she remembers. The hunky next door neighbors are also her new employers, cousins Sam and Pete Hope. She went to school with the men but they’re all grown up. It’s soon clear they have their sights set on winning her heart.
Unfortunately, her mother-in-law doesn’t give up quite so easily. She’s determined to get Sarah and Jason back to New York by any means necessary. Despite an escape-artist steer nicknamed Moodini, asshole ninja assassin pet goats, and learning how to love again, Sarah rebuilds her and Jason’s lives and soon discovers that, just maybe, two Hopes can heal her heart better than one.

The good...and the bad.

Life is a bunch of goods and bads and, somewhere in the middle, it all evens out, I guess. Right now is one of those "evening out" times. At least I hope it works out like that.
Tallied in the "good" column is a new book coming out this Friday, and this past weekend spent at FetishCon with Sir, a desperately needed weekend "off" where I could just put the world on hold and try to relax and take a break.
I say try, because that's where the bad column comes in.
Our eldest dog, Scudder, who we've had since the day he turned eight weeks old, is unfortunately going downhill fast. He has a bad hip and he won't even get up now. We have to struggle to get him to eat, and he'll let us know he has to go out so we can take him outside--meaning carry him outside--but that's all. He's sixteen and was the first service dog puppy we raised. (He flunked for a variety of issues, so they let us keep him.)
He's not just been our pet. He's been friend, confidant, the one ready with a wagging black Lab tail to try to cheer us up. My soul friend, and even familiar. Countless tears have been cried into his coat over the years by all three of us. He was always the one to come to us first when one of our other furbabies went to the Rainbow Bridge, there to comfort us with those big, sweet brown eyes.
I even immortalized him, and one of our other dogs, Tessa (who passed in 2010) in one of my stories (Puppy Dog Eyes) by naming characters after them.
Despite the trials of puppyhood, when he ate linoleum in both our kitchen and master bathroom, among other things, he grew to become a great dog, usually glued to me when I was home, and usually the first to step forward with a warning growl if he thought I was being threatened. In his younger days, he was a counter cruiser extraordinaire, including several pairs of kitchen shears (ate the handles), food, paper plates, dirty diapers he fished out of the garbage (prompting revamps of having to hide the garbage cans from him), and underwear. He used to love to fetch the newspaper for us (one of the tasks he learned how to do well in his initial training before flunking), and plenty of times, Hubby and I would deliver cards to each other by giving it to Scudder and sending him after the other.
It's been reasonably calm around here since 2011, when we had to send our bulldog, Bubbles, to the Rainbow Bridge, due to cancer, not too long after my grandfather died. (Yeah, that was a sucky year, because a friend of ours ended up getting sick and dying of cancer later that year.)
Hubby and I are both having a hard time with this. And it's times like this that the true depths of friendship come into play. I think some people assume since we have an alternative lifestyle that it's all about fun and games and kinky shit. The truth is, I'd say over 80% of our relationship is "vanilla." Maybe closer to 90%. Sir offered to go with us to the vet, if needed, or even to take him for us if we didn't think we could.
That's friendship. Today when we got home from our weekend at FetishCon, Sir took a few minutes to sit with Scudder to love up on him and say goodbye to him. We're going to take him ourselves in the next couple of days, but I'm sure my two-legged black Lab (Sir) will be consoling me and Hubby both over the coming days. So those are good and bad column tallies that cancel each other out.
When I say we're a family, we are. We call ourselves a "pack" for reasons just like this. And it's all about love and friendship. The other stuff we do is incidental to all of that.
We're not sure what day we're doing it yet. I have to call our vet tomorrow and talk to them. But with all this happening, I have a job to do, yet it feels wrong to sit there pumping out promo for a new release when all I want to do is sit here and cry. Even Gidget and Apache, our other two dogs, are hovering around us and Scudder.
The cats, of course, are cats. LOL As long as they're fed and their litter is clean, they don't care about what happens in dog world, even though they share the same turf.
Hug your furbabies. And your human loved ones. Life is short, even when it's filled with 16 years of love.

"Pinch Me" for pre-order, "Hope Heals" release date.
at
8:57 PM
Monday, August 12, 2013
Woot! It's a great Monday. :)
Pinch Me just went up for pre-order on the BookStrand site today: http://www.bookstrand.com/pinch-me
Blurb:
[Siren Sensations: Erotic Consensual BDSM Romantic Suspense, spanking, paddling, cropping, sex toys, HEA]
Laura Spaulding awakes in a hospital following a vicious attack that has stolen her memories of the past. All she has to go on are the strong emotions she instinctively feels for close friends and her fiancé, Rob.
Rob Carlton is more than just Laura’s fiancé—he’s also her Master. But how can he tell her she’s his slave when he has to win her love all over again first? And he feels helpless to protect her from a nameless stalker who’s killed before and won’t stop until he finishes the job with Laura.
As bits and pieces slowly return, Laura struggles to rediscover who she was, and if she even wants to be that same person again. All she knows is there’s something huge missing in her life now, and not just memories of the attack. She also knows it’ll take more than just pinching herself to wake up from her living nightmare and bring a killer to justice.
A Siren Erotic Romance
Tymber Dalton is a Siren-exclusive author.

I found out today it looks like the release date for Hope Heals will be 9/23. Woot! :)
Blurb:
Sarah’s world shatters when her husband’s killed in the wreck that injures her young son, Jason. Worse, Sarah discovers painful betrayals that make remaining in New York City with her hateful mother-in-law impossible. Moving home to Florida to live with her widowed father is their only option.
You can go home again, but it’s not the home she remembers. The hunky next door neighbors are also her new employers, cousins Sam and Pete Hope. She went to school with the men but they’re all grown up. It’s soon clear they have their sights set on winning her heart.

Suncoast Society series reading order.
at
10:13 AM
Thursday, August 8, 2013
Coming 8/23/13. |
The characters started walking through each others' books.
Tony Daniels, of course, was the first "offender," so to speak. He appeared in both Domme by Default and The Reluctant Dom at first. I didn't have plans to give him his own story.
Well, rather, HE hadn't spoken up with his own story. But eventually he did. Giving me The Denim Dom. And he makes an appearance in Two Geeks and Their Girl (but in a vanilla way).
He also plays an important role in Pinch Me, coming 8/23 from Siren-BookStrand.
So while all the books in this series are standalone stories in their own right, I'm going to suggest a preferred reading order simply to avoid one book revealing spoilers about other books. This is more a chronological order.
- Safe Harbor
- Cardinal's Rule
- Domme by Default
- The Reluctant Dom
- The Denim Dom
- Pinch Me (coming 8/23/13)
Ray, Oot, and kitten from Safe Harbor also appear in Love Slave for Two: Beginnings, and in kitten's tale. While kitten's tale is BDSM, it's not technically part of the Suncoast Society series.
If you don't read them in the "right" order, really, it's not going to hurt anything. Each book focuses on a different set of main characters, with other characters in supporting roles. But now that the characters have made it plain to me that they're all going in this direction, the books will be more chronological in relation to each other. Still all standalone works, but you might come across spoilers if read in a non-chronological order.
Release Day: "kitten's tale
at
1:00 AM
Wednesday, August 7, 2013
Woot! It's release day for the revised and expanded version of "kitten's tale!" This is the story that was previously only available through the free BookStrand app.
http://www.bookstrand.com/kittens-tale-dalton
Blurb:
[Siren Ménage Everlasting: Erotic Consensual BDSM Ménage a Trois Romance, M/M/F, spanking, caning, sex toys, HEA]
Sarah, aka kitten, has a wonderful BDSM play relationship with Ray and Oot. She knows they aren’t looking for anything other than play and friendship, and she loves being a submissive and sex toy to them. But when Ray enlists a good friend to help out with play at the club one night, she soon sees another side to Ray and discovers what a lucky kitten she is.
Ray and Oot love playing with kitten at the club and in their bed, but neither are they planning on adding her as a permanent third. Then a night at the club changes Ray’s perspective when he realizes they’re not the only one with their eyes on kitten. Now he’s about to find out that when you have a kitten by the tail, she just might steal your heart.
Note: This for-sale version has been revised and expanded and is at 16,665 words. The original short version at 12,909 words is available for free only inside the BookStrand App.

More for my fellow introverts.
at
5:15 PM
Tuesday, August 6, 2013
In a follow-up to the human-sized hamster ball post from 7/15, here's a list from BuzzFeed:
27 Problems Only Introverts Will Understand.
Um, yep, yep, and double-yep.
Being introverted has definitely caused me problems in my life. It's easy to tell someone, "Oh, get over it," but it's not as simple as that.
Those who are introverts, I know you get it.
Those who aren't, it's not something easy to explain. The stimuli, especially to someone like me with fibromyalgia, can be physically and mentally overwhelming. What energizes an extrovert can send me to bed for a couple of days (or longer) afterward if it triggers a flare.
I'm lucky that Hubby and Sir "get it" and accommodate me. I don't think Sir totally understands it, because He's an extrovert to the Nth, but He's learned to recognize the signs of when I'm getting overwhelmed and need a break if we're out.
How do you cope with being an introvert?

"Hope Heals" coming soon from Siren-BookStrand! (And gotta pimp my Hubby...)
at
6:12 PM
Monday, August 5, 2013
Woot! It's a happy Monday. :) I got the email today from Siren that they've accepted my latest submission, Hope Heals (mfm, contemporary, funny LOL). No firm release date yet, just a September/October range. I'll let you know when it's assigned a release date.
For a preview, you can go to this WIP Wednesday post about it. (Not many books I get to use the phrase "killer goat posse" in them. LOL)
Don't have the blurbs ready yet, but the short version is that after the death of her husband in a auto wreck that nearly killed her young son, too, a woman has to move back home to Florida from New York. And while you can go home again, sometimes it's not the same as you remember. Like the fact that her widowed father now has livestock that have seemingly conspired to either kill her or drive her crazy. Maybe both. And her next door neighbors are the hunky Hope cousins, who she'd secretly lusted after in high school.
I'm sure you can suss the basics. :)
Now to the Hubby pimpage. (No, not like THAT.)
Hubby is also a writer. And he's going to be self-publishing his first book, writing as Jon Dalton, titled Dancing on a Tightrope. It's a mystery series centering on main character Wolf Mallory, who's retired military and now a PI living in coastal southwest Florida. Think Mickey Spillane meets Travis McGee. (And Hubby even let me borrow Wolf to be a secondary character in one of my mysteries that I'm going to self-pub, too. LOL)
I did the cover for him, and yes, expect further pimpage from me about the book once it's released. :) We're in the editing phase at this point.
And also, yes, if you're wondering about the pen name... LOL Actually, "Dalton" came from him picking it first, years ago, when he first started writing the book. I wanted a pen name that, in part, matched his. So I made up "Tymber" and used Dalton. :)
(OMG, yes, we are SOOO "that" disgusting couple who's still in love sixteen years later and does gooey sweet stuff like that. LOL)
Pttpphhpp. LOL
This book actually holds a special place in my heart. We originally met on the Novels-L critique list on the Internet Writing Workshop. I was doing crits of this book for him, and he was critting my earlier version of Red Tide. Eventually, we met in person at a writing conference and it was love at first sight. :)

Sixteen years ago today, "The World's Greatest Husband(TM)" agreed to take me as his wife. And he hasn't even run away screaming.
Yet. LOL
I love my husband more than I have capacity to say (and yes, I am aware of the irony of a writer being speechless). He is more than my husband, he's also my friend and my biggest cheerleader. If it wasn't for him, I might never have taken the plunge to finally pursue my fiction career.
Happy Anniversary, Honey! :)
And I also happen to have a new release. LOL
I'm pleased to announce my latest book, "Two Geeks and Their Girl," (mfm) is available from Siren-BookStrand:
http://www.bookstrand.com/two-geeks-and-their-girl
Blurb:
[Siren Ménage Everlasting: Erotic Ménage a Trois Romantic Suspense, M/F/M, HEA]
Amanda “Manny” Croyle hates technology…and it hates her right back. Which is why it annoys her when she’s assigned to an undercover investigation and protective operation for two computer geeks. But it’s not like she has a life. Just a wounded heart and PTSD from her time in the Middle East.
Korbin Temple and Rhys Gilyard are resigned to the fact that Artemis—a top-secret cyber-security project—is the only “woman” in their life. Then they’re assigned an administrative assistant. They’ve learned not to trust sexy women, especially once they suss out Manny’s true identity, but there’s something sweetly haunted about her and they wouldn’t mind a chance to brighten her world.
Manny knows getting personal is a bad idea, but the two men soon win her heart. Unfortunately, unknown criminals want their hands on Artemis. Now it’s a race against time to see if Manny can unravel the mystery before time runs out for one of her men.
