War has come to the castle in Garnet City. With Daniah’s
fate hanging in the balance, the close group of Zoku must come together and
overpower the resistance, as well as protect the humans.
Lives will forever be altered. Secrets are revealed. One
person must decide whether to continue on the path of destruction or follow the
Everlasting, while another learns she can be more than she ever had the
opportunity to be.
As the Zoku army fights back against the evil Devlo, they
turn to their faith, and rely on strength, hope, and love. But, will this be
enough? Can they overcome Daniah’s missing presence, or will this be what evil
needs to win, once and for all? The ultimate fight between good and evil will
clash in this final chapter of the Angel Crest Trilogy.
I grin against her sudden gasp, and I suck her tongue into
my mouth as I pump my finger in and out, making her body buck between my body
and the wall behind her. Her thighs are gripping my hips, and her fingers claw
at my back. I feel powerful as my fingers slide through her moisture easily.
“I need to touch you, I need to feel you.” The need in her
voice is obvious as she pants, I reach down and grasp her ass as I pull my
fingers out to torment her, flicking her nub, knowing how hot she is getting, I
need to please her.
“Oh!” Cord’s body tenses, but I pull back, I need her with
me, and I need her mindless with passion.
Her eyes, glazed and heavy lidded, meet mine, and I grin as
I turn us and shut the door we were standing next to, she reaches over and
locks it. I move us over to a table and lean forward so her back makes contact.
She wastes no time pulling my shirt off and is working on my pants before I
have either of my shoes kicked off. I unfasten her shorts and yank them down,
as she pulls on my pants. I step back and drop my jeans, stepping out of them,
and pull Cord to the edge of the table. With no hesitation, I slide into her,
her back arches and I have to taste her again. I lean forward and lick her
nipple, watching as it beads. Cord reaches around me, grabbing my ass and
pulling me closer.
“Make love to me. Now.” Her gaze is direct and intense, and
the love I have for her swamps me.
I lean forward and kiss her while I start pumping in and out
of her, I reach down and finger her nub. Hearing her muffled plea for more. I
lean back and pull her thighs up so I can thrust forward harder, her husky
moans spurring me on to move faster.
“You are beautiful.” She is, looking at her gorgeous body
splayed before me, gripping my cock, making my heart beat hard, I can’t help
but voice the truth.
Her moan is thanks enough, and I feel her squeeze around my
cock. I pump fast, then reach around and use my thumb to press and rub her nub.
Her body bows even more as I feel her orgasm squeeze my cock harder and her
juices drench me, and I can’t hold back any more as my whole body tenses. I
feel the sweetest relief pour through me. Panting, I lean forward and rest my
forehead against hers.
“I love you so much,” I whisper against her lips, and she smiles
sleepily.

FEATURING
Tropic of Pleasure by Tina
Donahue
Blurb:
The one woman they shouldn’t want. Two Doms she
can’t resist. A sizzling weekend beyond their wildest desires.
Bondage, submission, punishment, oh my. Cara’s wanted Hud
and Ryder forever. They’re Alpha to the core and love a wicked good time, which
has her ready to sign up for their brand of BDSM.
Although Ryder and Hud haven’t been immune to Cara’s charms,
they don’t have a death wish—her billionaire daddy is a major investor in their
high-end construction firm. When she insists it’s no problem and offers to be
their sub, visions of blindfolds, collars and her sweet surrender dance in
their heads, along with the longing they’ve fought.
Oh baby. The battle’s just begun during a smoking-hot
weekend on a private island.
After a terrible start in life, Asher Harris picks himself
up and manages to carve out a fairly decent future. Content with living alone
in his bookshop, he shies away from relationships and keeps trust to a
minimum.
Emma Carnes hasn’t seen Asher in years, though she’s never
forgotten him. Their one interaction as teenagers became pivotal to them both.
It gave her a career.
It saved his life.
Emma saw things about Asher that nobody else did. When she
urged him to escape a perilous situation, it turned her toward her purpose in
life…and saved Asher. Intrigued by the strong man he’s become, she gently
persuades him to open up, but finds his emotional walls hard to climb. She also
hopes for his help with a troubled teen, Gabe Dearing, who reminds her very
much of Asher himself.
Their relationship and ties to Gabe threaten to reveal
things someone wants to keep hidden… Someone is watching Emma, trying to figure
out what she knows, and she soon senses something isn’t right.
When the bookshop is vandalized and Gabe disappears, only to
return bloody, broken, and refusing to say what happened, Asher and Emma search
for the truth as their passion intensifies. The danger mounts, and Emma and Ash
struggle to keep what they’ve fought so hard to gain. But can he save Emma as
she saved him so long ago?
Or will a dark and violent history repeat itself and destroy
them all?
“And you’re hurting me by blaming yourself. Shutting
yourself away from me isn’t helping.”
Asher touched the bruising around her eye, as well as the
cuts that had been stitched near her eyebrow. “You’ll have scars.”
“Then we’ll match. Unless that idea disgusts you.”
“Why the hell would it disgust me? I have my own. What I
mean is, that animal has left his mark on you forever.”
“And you should know that scars only show the path we’ve
walked. It doesn’t show anyone the journey I’m taking.”
Asher fell silent as he appeared the mull over what she’d
said. So many questions bubbled inside her, though she couldn’t bring herself
to ask them just yet. This tiny moment of calm, with his hands on her was
exactly what she’d longed for. “Asher? Why did you stay away?”
Dropping his hands, he put some space between them and sat
on the coffee table facing her. Only their knees touched. “Since I’ve met you
I’ve had issues with emotions.”
“I would argue that you’ve had them long before we saw each
other again.”
Asher nodded and carried on speaking. “I’ve had so few
things in my life that mean as much as you do. Other than Ike and my father
I’ve never loved anyone, and look what happened to each of those.” He gulped.
AUTHOR
BIO
M. A. Stacie is never without a book or her eReader. A
voracious reader, with a love of sexy, yet angst ridden novels, she loves
getting lost in new worlds. Her need to write did not grip her until after her
second son was born, when her previous rambles became fully fledged
stories.
She describes herself as one huge contradiction, and though
not the most conventional of hobbies, she counts getting new tattoos as one of
hers. Along with running, knitting, and listening to loud music. However, she
is yet to work out how to do them all at the same time.
M. A. Stacie lives in the UK with her husband and three
sons.
When Marissa infiltrates the notorious motorcycle club on
the outskirts of town, she is prepared to destroy the shifters who are
threatening her family. She isn’t prepared for their leader’s sensual
proposition, or to play a dangerous bedroom game. As her heart softens, secrets
come to light, and Marissa must choose whether to carry on the family legacy,
or follow her heart.
Marissa had always suspected that kissing Navarro would be
intense, but she had no idea just how intense until he had her in his arms. The
man was sin on a stick, and with each passing second she was falling more and
more under his spell.
When he brushed his tongue against the seam of her lips, it
felt like heaven. With a groan, she parted them in invitation. Navarro took
advantage, planting his hand along the back of her head to hold her steady as
he plundered her mouth. The kiss wasn’t gentle, but Marissa didn’t want gentle.
All her life she had dated “gentle” men who her father found respectable. There
was something wild and feral in Navarro. It called to a primal place deep
inside her soul.
She was the one who was supposed to be seducing him, not the
other way around. If she didn’t regain some control over this situation, she
would never be able to use this moment to gain the information she needed.
As Navarro lifted her up onto the bar and eased in between
her thighs, Marissa attempted to disentangle herself. Somehow, her movements
brought her closer to him, not farther away. That wild, testosterone part of
him was turning her muscles to water. It had been so long since she had sex,
even longer since she had good sex. Something about Navarro told her that one
night with him would be extraordinary.
Giving up on her plan to take charge, she inched closer to
the edge of the bar and slid her hands around his waist. As his erection
pressed up against her inner thigh, she decided that she’d give herself over to
the moment just this once. By giving herself over to him, she could gain his
trust. Yeah, that’s it. Trust.
As he slid his tongue against hers, weeks of building
tension exploded into her mouth. He tasted raw and masculine, a heady, leathery
taste that matched his scent. He invaded her senses, pushing through the last
shred of her defenses until the world around her faded away. She moaned and
tilted her head, deepening the kiss. Within seconds there was only her. Only
him. Only hungry mouths and skin touching skin.
“Yes,” she gasped as he tore away from her. He kissed her
jaw and neck, creating a hot, tingling sensation along her skin that fueled her
desire. She leaned her head back and closed her eyes as he let go of her wrist
and ran his large fingers down her back. Sliding her hands up his washboard abs
and along his muscular chest, she slipped them under his black, leather jacket
and pushed it off his shoulders. He pulled back and shed the jacket on a
single, fluid motion. It fell to the ground in a heap around them as he leaned
forward and kissed her neck once more.
“Navarro,” she whispered as she tugged his T-shirt from his
jeans. After freeing the cotton fabric, she eased her fingers underneath and
slid them over his skin. The hard muscle flexed under her fingertips as he
inched closer to the edge of the bar. Digging her nails into his skin, she
wrapped her legs around his waist and positioned herself until his cock pressed
up against her center.
“What is it about you, Marissa?” His breath whispered over
her skin, making her shiver. “From the first day we met, I felt the tension
between us.”
“Yes,” she whispered as his tongue flicked over the
sensitive vein in her neck.
“Ever since then, I’ve been watching you, trying to figure
out why you have this affect over me.” He eased his hand up her side and
covered her breast. Marissa moaned as he squeezed her sensitive flesh and
kneaded the tip between his fingers.
“No other woman has captured my attention like this. Just
your scent drives me mad with desire.”
“Navarro, please.” She tugged up on his shirt, eager for him
to remove it. She wanted him, had wanted him from the first moment she stepped
into Estrella’s. The tension between them that he mentioned was real. As he
leaned her back onto the smooth surface of the bar, a sense of urgency rose up
deep inside of her core. She shifted her fingers, sliding them around his torso
and rubbing them over his rough skin. He growled in response, a throaty,
masculine sound that sent a jolt of desire up through her core.
He shifted until his lips were inches away from her ear. “I
need to be inside of you, querida.” He flicked his tongue over her lobe.
“Before this night is over, I will make you mine. Only
mine.”
