What’s My Newest 1NS Book
Coming???? TANTRIC
STORM
For those die hard fans
of the 1NS series, you may have read my very first 1Night Stand story: Designing
Passion. It takes place in a Spanish Castle Resort, one of many new,
exotic locations in the Castillo Hotel Chain. Tawny gets her romantic
fulfillment and HEA in Designing Passion, but alas, her
best friend Cindy had a date that night, in the same castle!
A number of reviewers
and readers commented they would like to hear Cindy’s story from that night,
and Now They Will!!!
In Tantric Storm, Cindy has
a very challenging situation to overcome in order to get her night of lustful
pleasure, or rather, her date does. It may start with a seaside dinner; we know
that much from Designing Passion, however, Madame Eve has a few spectacular
surprises for their unique date. After dinner, there’s a trip to a remote and
very HOT location.
This is another
paranormal romance… My tall, dark and handsome hero, has an unusual ability, he
deems a dark curse! Without letting the cat out of the bag, I can say, having
an interlude in the great outdoors, proves life-threatening, exciting and we
hope he can end his 1Night Stand with a BIG BANG, but preferably, the kind of
his choice!
Blurb
for Tantric Storm:
Therapist Laura Wellington is eager to end her
sexual dry spell. Her skill of helping couples achieve personal happiness is
illusive in her own life. She jets off to a small island in Spain for a
spectacular night of mind-blowing pleasure through the services of 1NS, but her
match has a challenge that might make her goal unreachable.
Declan Tempest hasn’t had a climax in years. Not
because he can’t, but because he won’t; his dire fear for the consequences of
fulfillment deter him. Declan turns to the aid of Madame Eve to create a match
that can allow him the satisfaction he desperately needs, despite the challenge
he deems a dark curse.
Excerpt
for Tantric Storm:
“Wait a second; you’re saying you
could tell things about me just by looking?”
“Yes, I can,” she smirked.
“Okay,” He challenged. “Give it
your best shot.” Declan stood face to face with her.
“Well, let’s see,” she folded her
arms and put on her assessment cap. “You dressed in casual attire, so you
wanted to appear relaxed and confident for our date, but you’re particular
about your clothing; silk, white, button down shirt, the first few buttons are
open, and Chimo dress pants, so you aren’t uptight, but still somewhat
conservative.”
Declan arched his brows. “Go on.”
“You shave your head, but from
the looks of your five o’clock shadow, it’s more for convenience, rather than
esthetics, you have a solid build, but wear loose clothing. You don’t go out of
your way to show your defined muscles, but you have an exceptionally
competitive nature. I would say, you’re a professional athlete, a full contact
sport of some kind.”
“Wow.” He nodded, and waited for
more.
“You’re engaging and kind. The
thin detailed line of facial hair that frames your jaw, suggests to me you like
to have some mystery and can be a very private person, but you don’t hide. If
people ask your opinion, you’re honest and open, sometimes more than you intend
to be.”
“You’re good.”
“It’s a gift, what can I say?”
“I’m speechless.”
“Do you want to try and figure me
out?” Taunting a little, she was curious about his perception of her.
“Sure, I may not be as good at it
as you are, but I’ll give it a try.”
“Ready.” Laura dropped her arms
to her side and lifted her chin with a smile.
“Let’s see, you’re sweet,
intelligent, and sexy as hell.”
She covered her mouth and stifled
a giggle. “Be serious.”
“I am.” Declan reached up and
smoothed a stray tress of hair back from her cheek. His touch stirred something
deep inside.

Curious as to what readers would like to see next, I
created an online survey about various aspects they would like to see in a
story. Everything from genre and length, to specific settings. So far, I had
some interesting results, but I am keeping the survey active, still looking for
more reader input.
I want YOU to tell me where my next published story
should take place! This survey has multiple choice options, as well as an
“other” option, to add specific suggestions! I would LOVE to get your feedback.
Tell me where you want a story to take place, and
what the appeal about that location would be! Comment here, let’s see what the
next best seller will look like!

Happy Reading!

ReplyDeletecynj(dot)pahl(at)gmail(dot)com
@Cynthia, thanks so much!
DeleteI like the survey idea, but I don't think I could write like that. I am not that organized of a writer. I write what my characters tell me to write. I filled out the survey though. Looking forward to reading your works.
ReplyDeletefreedombookss@yahoo.com
@Dawn, my muse is fickle, lol. I have so many partial scripts started, and put on hold, deciding which to pursue was a little overwhelming.
DeleteIronically enough, the outcome of the survey, thus far, has highlighted most of the aspects in my new full-length novel I'm working on, and have outlined approximately 9 in the series. So there will be something for everyone!
Thanks for stopping by
I love the blog. I can't wait to start reading all these great books I'm coming across. And great idea with the survey, jumping over to check it out now :)
ReplyDeleteauthor_tonya_callihan at hotmail dot com
@Tonya, I love it too, for a few reasons, not only does it get people stopping by to see our work, it gives us authors a chance to become familiar with our readers. Personally, I hope for more of that!
DeleteHappy hopping
Took the survey for you! :) That was actually a lot of fun! How cool to let readers help you decide!
ReplyDeleteLove the cover for Shadowed Desires!
kristinaleigh1@hotmail.com
@Kristina, Thank you for that! I'm loving the feedback, and sometimes improv can provide an even greater, more spontaneous story that has a different kind of excitement added to it!
DeleteGreat post! Very fun to read! And congrats! Id love to read about a story that takes place in Ireland in a castle or in Egypt in a pyramid. :D Both would be cool!
ReplyDelete@Shadow, stay tuned! The series I just mentioned, is going to take place in a few very special places, and Egypt is one of them! I can't say anymore just yet, but follow and get updates, I post often!
DeleteThanks for commenting
Congrats on your upcoming release and your stories being in print! It sounds like an awesome read. Love the heroes name. :)
