Production Description:

There are two things Chrissy and Martin really love besides each other—sex and Halloween. They even bought a spooky old Victorian house with a graveyard in the back. Could they have a better place to throw a lavish Halloween party?

Adena's not much for the crazy orgies that happen at Chrissy's parties but she can't say no to her best friend's Halloween-housewarming party either. So she dresses up, arrives late and stays away from most of the swinging people and wild activities at the party. At least until she encounters the man of her dreams at midnight. Dimitri is everything Adena has always dreamed of in a man: dark, handsome, smart…but there’s something a little off about him.

When she discovers just what makes Dimitri different, Adena decides to find a way for them to be together. But will love and faith, along with Halloween magic, be enough to bring Adena's darkly handsome lover, Dimitri, back to her before it’s too late?

*I did receive this book from Night Owl Romance for the purpose of my honest review.*
*So, all thoughts and comments regarding this book are solely mine!*

I do not judge short stories on the rush of their relationships, because they are just that - short stories. So, yes the relationships always could have been drawn out more, yea it seems like they fall in love to fast and of course the story could have been made longer... but it is a short story. So with that said.... here is my review...

This is my first Roxanne Rhoads story and will not be my last. She has a unique voice to her stories. Paranormal brought to life, I felt the lust, I felt the chills, I felt the desire and of course I felt the spookiness. This story is set in my favorite time EVERA - Halloween! And I do have to say that Ms. Roxanne definitely has a flare for the very hot side all the while keeping my interest piqued.

This story definitely has all the elements of a hot erotic, spooky Halloween, and a love tale that will have the hopeless romantic fall in love all over again!

Chrissy and Martin, Adena's best friend, are throwing their annual Halloween party. But this year they are having it at their new home, an old Victorian house they are are remodeling. It even comes with its own graveyard! Adena is going of course... stag. She is hoping to find someone there that would help her scratch an "itch".... But she is looking for a one on one thing.... Her friends are in the swinging world. So to say that the party will have an erotic twist too it would be mildly put. Adena was expecting to see things of the adult nature at the party, just not of the otherworldly nature....

What if you met the man of your dreams, the man that has always been a ghost of your dreams? What would do you for true love? Ms. Rhoads takes us on a quick journey that you will not forget... You will find yourself wanting to go the best Halloween party ever... So, who is with me to go to Chrissy & Martin's house???

By the way Happy Halloween!!

And remember... Keep it Dirty, Smutty & Hussy!

Review: A Little Harmless Obsession by Melissa Schroeder

A Little Harmless Obsession -- Harmless Series, Book 3

Samhain Publishing

What begins as a quest for submission becomes an unrelenting need for love.

May Aiona’s crush on sexy Evan Chambers is a bad habit that should be easy to break. It’s not like he’s ever noticed her. Looking for a safe place to release the reins of control and explore her curiosity about BDSM, May takes a friend up on an invitation to visit an exclusive bondage club—all she has to agree to is a public submission.

Evan can’t help but notice the exotically beautiful May. But despite his success, the dirty secrets of his past whisper that he’ll never be good enough for her. When Evan sees her standing in his club ready to submit to his best friend, he gives in to the thing he wants most—May as his sub. After their session, he knows one night will never be enough. But loving May isn’t easy for a man always ready to take charge. She might like to submit in the bedroom, but she doesn’t like anyone telling her what to do outside of it.
When May insists she’s not in any danger from the person seemingly obsessed with her, she ends up in the sights of a deranged stalker—with Evan possibly too far away to help.

Warning: This book contains sexy Hawaiian settings, crazy relatives, and a submission scene that leaves the heroine breathless and the hero frustrated. There are toys, bondage, and love scenes so hot, you’ll need ice water and a towel. Remember, it’s a Harmless story, so you know there’s nothing harmless about it.

I obtained the above information from Ms. Melissa's website!

I also received this book for review from the author for my honest review!

This book was freaking amazing. Ms. Melissa kept me reading till late at night, till I thought I would have to have toothpicks holding my eyelids open. And thanks to Ms. Melissa, I now want to move to Hawaii!

You will fall in love with May. She is one tough cookie. Her mother was killed by a drunk driver when she was young. So, she did what any other strong woman would have done. She stepped up the plate and took care of her family. Becoming the "woman" of the family, that meant that May controlled everything. The only place she did not want to control was in the bedroom. But the men she met and dated did not fill the job. Some even tried to blame her for the lack in the bedroom. But May's father did not help matters with always trying to set her up on dates. He only wanted the best for her... but the best does not always mean that is what a person needs.

Could the best thing for her and what she needs be found in Evan? Will she ever find out - due to the fact that Evan has kinda treated her like a sister instead of a lover.... Being the controller... Evan never thought of May as a sub; only because she strikes him as a Domme. One woman running her entire family, managing a restaurant and making sure everyone else is okay and taken care... Evan never would have thought until he walked in the club he was a silent partner in and heard that May was there to become a member and what her conditions were...

And to add to the story, as if picturing Evan as a very exquisite Dom and sexy as hell lover was not enough.... Oh by the way, he will knock your socks and maybe your panties off ~ just saying. Okay... as if that was not enough story there... two people trying to go through life not being attracted to each other but really the blood is boiling underneath the surface.... The plot thickens and throws you really for a loop... Someone is stalking May and takes it to the extreme. Of course I can not tell you any more than that because I want you to go read this book but I will tease you with these little things....

Evan... super hot. All alpha and possessive. And not in a bad way. In fact his past makes you want to take him and make him forget. And his passion for the woman he loves will strike a cord with you and make you want him to claim him for yourself.

May... super sassy! A woman full of delicious curves, a wicked mind and passion for her family and friends like no other. Her past will make you take notice of the girl that was and the woman that became. It will so make you want to stand by her side while she overcomes it. She is a strong willed woman. She has a drive you do not find in a lot of woman. And the courage to keep going with her head held high! She is one hell'va woman!

Then Ms. Melissa has the side characters that kinda have their own stories. Which is very nice because they do not take over May and Evan's story... quite the opposite. It added some spice and a bit of flare and some wonderful dynamics to the story.

I missed reading the first two before reading this one... but I will tell you that I was not lost one bit. This story was understandable, there was no part where I felt lost... It was an awesome tale of two people finding the love that runs deeper than the lava of Hawaii.

Review: Cracklin Rosie by Lissa Matthews

Publisher: Samhain Publishing
ISBN: 978-1-60928-203-1
Genre: Contemporary/Erotic Romance, Red Hots
Format: eBook
Length: Category

A tool for every job. A belt for every occasion…

Blue Jeans and Hard Hats, Book 2

Food is Rosie’s life, and life is good. She loves it, makes it, serves it in her diner, writes about it in her blog, and she’s happy. At least until a storm puts a rather large tree limb through her roof, and a sex-in-a-tool-belt roofer on top of her cabin.

But that’s not where she wants him. No, she wants him behind her with a strip of leather in his hand. That’s what makes her edgy—vulnerability is not her style. Except the more prickly she gets with him, the more he turns on the charm.

Decker arrives in Blue Ridge, Georgia, with nothing on his mind but a job and some new scenery. His legendary patience is tested from the first moment he meets sharp-tongued Rosie. She’s got hips that sway, non-stop curves and a mouth that needs to be filled with things that are much sweeter than vinegar.

A few singe-worthy kisses, and Decker uncovers passions that will likely earn her every red stripe she’s begging for. And Rosie discovers Decker’s got a hunger burning deep inside to give her anything and everything she needs. Maybe even…forever.

Warning: Between the sheets of this book you’ll find a twist on a decadent southern dessert, sweet rose wine, picnic table sexiness, truck sex, a man who knows how to give a spanking and a woman who knows how to bend over a hot yummy lap.

I obtained the above information from Ms. Lissa's website!
And I was also given this book from the author to review for my honest thoughts! So here we go...

For those of you that know me... and those that don't this is my little statement about short books.... I do not judge short stories on the rush of their relationships, because they are just that - short stories. So, yes the relationships always could have been drawn out more, yea it seems like they fall in love to fast and of course the story could have been made longer... but it is a short story. So with that said.... here is my review...

Man oh man - where do I start. Okay, first I need to get the preliminaries out the way and tell you that this is book two on Ms. Lissa's hard hat and blue Jean series. As a reviewer, it is my job to tell you that you do have to read them in order. Ms Lissa does a marvelous job of giving us everything we need to know what is going on. However, as your friend it is my duty to shake the hell out of you, scream and shout at you until you break down and read Sweet Carolina. I mean really one word - Buck. Enugh said. Okay so I love, lust and am infatuated with the man. But damn, can u blame me. No if you knew him too, you wouldn't blame me. Okay, moving on - Buck has friends!!!! Omg!!!! Hell yeah!!

**evil wicked glean in the hussy's eyes**

Okay, moving on to Cracklin Rosie's story. Let me just jump on Decker. I mean, let me just jump right on in with Decker. The man is Sex On A Stick. He oozes sex like honey out he hive. Oh hell, one look or grin from this man will make your panties wet. I promise. Maybe I should say that he is Sex With A Tool Belt and he knows how to use it. And I promise you will be begging him to use it.

Okay, I'm not done gushing about Decker but you came here for a review and that is what I'm going to give to you.

Rosie lives in a very small community in Georgia. A town where everyone knows everyone. That's okay with Rosie, she loves her town and takes great pride in her surroundings. Rosie owns a diner smack dab in the middle of town. Now that truly is her pride and joy. Her parents gave it to her as a graduation present after she finished culinary school. She worked there practically all her life and came to love it. Her diner, her home - a little cottage not far from work, her haven. Everything is as it should be - perfect. Until a roof lands in her kitchen and she needs someone to repair it. Staying emotionally detached from anyone in her community, Rosie is disturbed by what they handyman is offering to fix.

Decker loves his job. Construction, workin with his hands. Watching the job form from ground up and seeing what his two hands created. He loves traveling wherever there is work. He loved to freedom. Until Buck called him for a favor... Caroline has a friend that needs her roof fixed. Simple enough right, then move on to the next job. Decker though settling down was not for him until he met Rosie. She had him erecting more than just her roof. Ha!!

Okay my warning right off the bat - if you want sweet, tender, soft love/romance... You may want to skip this one. However, if you want hot, hard, dirty, sexy as hell loving - then this is for you. Decker and Rosie are two explosive people alone, get them together and Omg watch the fireworks go off!! They are amazing together. Rosie has so many walls up, will she allow Decker to use his skills as a handyman to break them down? Decker has loved being the go with the flow person, living and loving for the moment; but what happens when his heart meets the ass of a lifetime?? You will have to read to know what that means, evil ~me, never!!!! Haa Haa!!!

Ms. Lissa did it again with another story that rocked my world. Staying true to the kinky side of life is always sexy, but the way Ms. Lissa give us the story always make me itch for the things that seem to run amuck in a hussy's mind! Smutty, sexy and hot as hell, this is one hot story!!

Interview & Giveaway with Edie Ramer

Today, we have the pleasure of having a new author here at the Lair!

Ladies and Gents, please give a warm welcome to

**Ms. Edie Ramer**


Ms. Edie and I met a while back at Ms. Lori Brighton's blog and I have followed her ever since.

She is a wonderful person and I am tickled that she wanted to come over to the Lair.

Shall we get this show on the road....


Welcome Ms. Edie and thank you for coming over today!

Cecile, thanks so much for the invite. You have a cool place here. Very nice, er, decorations.

Oh, thank you... I love my, er, decorations! So, how have you been doing?

Great! It’s a fun and thrilling time.

What has been been keeping you busy?

Promoting my book. Getting ready to put my next book up. Reading other people’s books. Family stuff. Walking my dogs. Worshipping my cat. Making a chocolate cake that didn’t quite turn out, but we’re eating it anyway.

I love my puppies... but I so want a kittie! Okay... Tell us a little about yourself... Wait... That you have not shared with anywhere else! Ha! Gotcha!

LOL I’m the middle child of five kids, all of us close in age. For my first ten years, I shared a bedroom with my two sisters. I think that taught me at a young age to be open. I recently shared online one thing that I’ve kept to myself. I’ve had four agents. I was afraid I’d scare other agents away, but now that I’ve gone indie I don’t care.

Okay, I am going to jump right in this... Cattitude! Tell us your story on this unique story. I love the spin you put on the point of view!

I love my cat. She’s loving and unique and brave and fast (I’ve seen her kill mice). I thought that would be great qualities for a heroine. Before this, I’d been writing mysteries (I’ve had numerous short stories published in mystery magazines), so I came to romance with my own spin. I definitely put my spin on Cattitude.

Here’s the blurb:

It’s all in the Cattitude . . .
After Belle the cat switches bodies with a psychic on the run from a murderer, she wants her perfect cat body back instead of this furless human one. But she doesn’t count on falling in love with her former owner. Or that a CEO and a beauty queen want to use up her nine lives. Now is her chance to prove anything a human can do, a cat can do better.

Can you tell us a little about Max and Belle (that does not give away the story)?

Max thinks he has to take care of everyone, even when they don’t want him to. And at the same time, he wants to live his own life. Just as he’s about to step away from his caretaker role, this…woman comes into his life. She’s been in an accident outside his home and refuses to let him take her to the hospital. He’s compelled to help her until he finds someone else to take over the job.

Belle has attitude in her cat body and her new human one. She’s not going to the hospital or the police or anywhere. Max’s home is her home, and no one is going to make her leave. Unless they kill her first…

Do you see yourself expanding this story into a series? If so... who next ~ Ted or Tory?!

You’re the third person to ask me this in one day. I don’t have plans, but maybe I should!

Well, this is because this a story that has two people screaming for their own story! And I mean... I would love to see what I can do with Ted, I mean what you could write about Ted... What has your attention now... Just give us just a tease??

My next book, Dead People, will be up soon, before Halloween, I hope. I just got the cover, and I LOVE it. I’m trying to think up a short blurb for the cover and it’s driving me crazy. The book is darker than Cattitude, but it still has a heroine with attitude. I think all my heroines have attitude. Hmm, that probably says something about me.

Do you have anything coming up.... (I read something at Blodeuedd's place... **big grin**)?

I hope you mean Dead People. My next book after that will be a dragon story.

Here’s the blurb for Dead People:

A sexy ghost whisperer thinks the scariest people are the living.

When Cassie Taylor talks, ghosts listen. She wants to heal their souls so they can leave earth. Brooding songwriter Luke Rivers wants to give his recently found daughter a normal home, but he discovers his new house in small town Wisconsin is haunted by a ghost with an attitude. His ghost whisperer has an attitude too — even before someone tries to kill her. So why does he have the hots for her? And why does she lust after him? He wants conventional; she wants acceptance. No wonder she thinks men are hard and dead people are easy.

What are you reading now?

I’m reading two books. Maybe This Time by Jennifer Crusie, and a non-fiction book for writers on marketing. I haven’t gotten very far with the second one.

Ohhhhh, I read Maybe This Time by Jennifer Cruise. It is a great book! You will enjoy it! Okay..... I know you have not been to the Lair before... This is when we get *cough* personal!
And remember, it is Halloween and my Birthday..... here we go....

***Do you hear that wicked laughter floating around the Lair***


Yes, I do hear wicked laughter. It echoes too. Very odd. And Happy Birthday!!!!!! I’m an October baby, too.

Cats or Dogs? I have both. But since my cat is in front of me, trying to play with my mouse, I’ll say her. And right now, she’s shedding less than the others, so that puts her on top.

Vampires or Werewolves? Werewolves. I like animals.

What do you give out for Halloween? We only buy what we like to eat, so Snickers is at the top of the list.

What would we find.......
On your night stand? Nothing. We only have one, and it’s on my husband’s side.

Hummmm... maybe I should have asked what is on your hubs night stand! **snickers**
Under your bed? I’ve looked recently! Just to make sure our cat hadn’t hacked up anything down there. No hairballs, but a lot of cat hair. Good thing we’re not allergic.

In your closet? A mess! I keep thinking I need to organize it. My husband has the neat closet.

What was your best birthday present ever? My birthday is coming soon, too. My husband is so bad at presents. The best presents he buys are the ones I pick out myself. When we were first married, he bought me a giant stuffed cat. I still have it. Every once in a while, I think of giving it away, but I never do.

If you could be one super hero - who would you be and why? When I was a child, I wanted to be Supergirl. I daydreamed of flying and saving people. I’d still like to fly, and I guess I could save people too. I’d be Superwoman, though. I don’t want to go back to being a girl.

Okay my boys want to welcome you t the Lair ~ Tribal Style!

Hard or Soft? Soft! (I think. It depends on what you’re talking about.)

Sweet or Sour? Sweet. I’m a sugar addict.

Whip Cream or Chocolate Style? That’s a tough one. I can’t make that choice. Why not both?

Bites or Nips? Hmm. Don’t like pain. I’d prefer neither.

Oral or.... I think it’s time to stop being open. lol

Okay boys... It is time to wrap this up. You are making Ms. Edie blush ten shades of red!

Ms. Edie, I want to thank you so much for coming over to my place today! And I am truly hoping you had a great time!!!

Cecile, I had a terrific time! These are the most interesting questions I’ve gotten.

I am so happy to say that Ms. Edie is so kind to giveaway two of ecopies of Cattitude!

What I want from you.....


If you could be one super hero ~ who would be and why????

Remember to leave an email address, so I can get in touch with you!


Contest ends October 26th!

Winner announced October 28th!


Okay, tell us where we can find you..... Please feel free to visit Ms. Edie at these places....

Review Cattitude by Edie Ramer

It’s all in the CATTITUDE . . .

After Belle the cat switches bodies with a psychic on the run from a murderer, she wants her perfect cat body back instead of this furless human one. But she doesn’t count on falling in love with her former owner. Or that a CEO and a beauty queen want to use up her nine lives. Now is her chance to prove anything a human can do, a cat can do better.


I obtained the information from Ms. Edie's website.

I was also given the book for my honest review.... So here we go!

Let me start off by saying this is my first Edie Ramer story. and I can promise you this won't be my last! This story is non stop with plotting vengeance or seduction, scheming for one thing or another, some major kicking ass, some hot lusting and guaranteed giggles!

At first, I had issues with the way characters were kinda put out there right out the gate. It was not a bad thing, it had more to do with me and my recent reading habits. I have been reading two person books... maybe three... So, I was not in the frame of mind to read and remember all these characters. I actually put it down for a little while. Okay... it was only like for about an hour because I simply had to know what happened to Belle and Max. Ms. Edie did an awesome job of roping me in! And I am very happy to report that I am very glad I kept reading.... This truly is a delightful read!

I have to say this is a very interesting book. Ms. Edie kept me guessing what the hell was going to happen next, who was going to do what or when they would do it. I mean I literally could not put the book down once I wrangled in all the characters and knew who was who and what or who they were after.

And I really do not want to give away too much... because one tip off and a spoiler would slip out (I promise). So, I will leave you with this...

Belle is sassy, funny, honest and a cat or was a cat. She is unlike any.... woman you'll ever meet. But believe me when you get to know her - cat or woman - you will want her to be on your side. And her love for Max is very ferocious!

Max, oh man oh man... Max! **Happy dance and girlie parts happy too** He is the oldest in his family. Ted and Tory are his younger siblings. Their father passed away when Max was approaching his teenager years. Leaving him with the last works along the line of "take care of them Max." Ummm, I am not sure about you, but those are some big shoes to fill. So from that point on forward, Max had the weight of the world on his shoulders. Always helping out everyone, giving of himself, giving up for others to have. Oh and did I mention that he is also a multimillionaire. So you can only imagine every woman and their Mama's would be after him.

Now let's meet Caroline. OMG.... she is a bitch and she deserves everything she gets and more in my opinion. She was married to Max's cousin. But he met an untimely death and he leaves Caroline broke. That is all I can say about her without giving her character away. Oh, I will say she definitely adds to the drama!!!

Ted and Tory are Max's siblings and I would love to see them get their own story (hint... hint...)! Ted is the younger brother by seven years and let's just say that he never hides what is on his mind.... and you might find it hard to believe how much he thinks of sex, lmbo! He is regarded as the fun loving brother, the one who really smiles!
Now Tory is the baby sister. She moved away to sprout her wings and grow! She is striving to become an actress in New York. But when the crap hits the fans at Max's house... Tory comes down to investigate for herself (and her Mom paid for her plane tickets, lol)!

Sorcha is a psychic that someone wants dead. After witnessing the death of her finance, the killer is on her heels (oh I should say wheels).... Sorcha wrecks her car and in that one instance..... her life is drastically changed. For the better or the worst... only Sorcha knows!

There are a few more characters for you to meet and they all add their own spice to the story! Ms. Edie truly kept me reading, cheering, holding my tears and breath back and giggling throughout the whole book! This is truly an entertaining, heart warming, very delightful book!
Ms. Edie did an awesome job with this one and I will waiting for more!!!

Stay tune tomorrow because Ms. Edie will be making an appearance at the Lair!!!!!

Review: Fourplay by Maya Banks

  • ISBN-13: 9780425236697
  • ISBN-10: 0425236692
  • Publisher: Berkley Publishing Group
  • Date: October 2010
  • Page Count: 352
I obtained the above information from Books-A-Million website.

Four Play, featuring the novella "Pillow Talk"

Zoe Michaels may be in a committed relationship with her boyfriend Chase, but there’s no lack of heat between her and her other two roommates Brody and Tate. After all, the three guys are all firefighters. Then one night, Chase reveals his number-one fantasy: for Zoe to perform an everything-goes strip tease for his two best buddies. A turn-on for them means a turn-on for him. And for Zoe? It proves to be even more, and it opens the door for a secret desire all her own to come true.

I obtain the above information at Ms. Maya's website.
Also go there to read an excerpt of the book!

I do not judge short stories on the rush of their relationships, because they are just that - short stories. So, yes the relationships always could have been drawn out more, yea it seems like they fall in love to fast and of course the story could have been made longer... but it is a short story. So with that said.... here is my review...

This is one hot story. Wow... I mean you have one hot firefighter (Chase) and one little hot firecracker woman (Zoe) and put these two together and omg... you get a Five Alarm Fire! Pillow talk is how this story started, but oh man oh man, the pillow talk we get at the end will leave you with a you smile on your face and well.... Yeah, I won't go there to what else will be happening with you and your things.

Chase and Zoe are the perfect couple. Their relationship is what makes others jealous. Their passion, their zest of life and love, their easy laid back personalities and just the fact that each other is their worlds. They are an awesome couple. The best thing about them, they share their wildest fantasies.

But what happens when you try to make a fantasy a reality? Is it better in your in your mind than in your bed? What happens when feelings get involved and things get a little muddy by emotion? Who would you trust to help make your partner's fantasies come true? The only people you can trust, your best friends....

This is an awesomely hot story. Ms Maya did an awesome job at bring fantasy to reality.

Interview & Giveaway with Lori Brighton


Please raise your glass or bottle for a welcoming toast to a wonderful author...


**Ms. Lori Brighton**

Welcome to the Lair again, Ms. Lori! It is always a pleasure to have you here. You know the drill - make yourself at home! May one of the Tribal Men get you something to drink or snack on?

**Cecile lightly slaps Lori's hand and snickers**



Now Lori, you know you get Those snacks after the interview silly woman!


Now where were we.... Oh yeah... How have you been?


Great! Excited and a little nervous. I think most authors are a little nervous when they have a book out.


What have you been up to lately?


My favorite things: writing and traveling! We just went on vacation to St. Augustine, Florida, which was amazing. And right now I’m working on two new books, both Contemporary Paranormals. And of course having a child keeps me very busy!


Let's talk about your new release..... Ghost Hunter...


(**for those of you that did not come yesterday,

please go -->> here to check out my review of Ghost Hunter**)


Okay, now give me your story for GH. Because I will tell you - you had me struggling between two men for a while. **Looks around the Lair** Not that that is a problem mind you, lol.... But man, you literally pulled out all the stops on this one.

I was struggling too! I was leaning toward one man for my heroine Ashley. But honestly there were times when I wasn’t sure who I would pick, or should I say who she would pick. These characters really
do have a mind of their own.

Here’s a blurb!
When Ashley Hunter inherits the Inn where her father mysteriously vanished years ago, she jumps at the chance to finally uncover the truth about his disappearance. But soon after taking ownership of the decrepit building, Ashley realizes she’s in for far more than she bargained. Not only has she inherited answers to many sought-after questions, she’s also inherited spirits, demons and even fallen angels! Then Cristian arrives, a gorgeous man who insists he merely needs a room to rent. She believes him, until one by one her ghosts start disappearing... As a fallen angel destined for a life of servitude, Cristian Lucius is relegated to protecting earth from unwanted spirits. But he can’t accomplish this daunting task alone. He requires assistance from the very woman who frustrates him as much as she intrigues him. Cristian is determined to ignore his intense attraction for Ashley, and focus on his mission. If they don’t work together, they won’t have a chance in hell of defeating the demon threatening their lives. The problem is getting Ashley to trust him. No easy task, considering Cristian is the very man responsible for her father’s disappearance.

This truly is an awesome story. I mean what you did was kinda like gather all the Disney princesses together, put them in one community and made them co-exist and help each other out. Only you did this with the paranormal world. And what I really love is that they (or some) really didn't want to help. What did you think of that?

It’s funny you mention Disney because I came up with this idea while on The Haunted Mansion ride at Disney World. But as for the imaginary town where The Ghost Hunter takes place….you’ll find a variety of paranormal beings, but you’re right, they don’t want to be involved. They want to be normal, which is sort of how Ashley (my heroine) has been. Ironically in the end she is the one trying to talk the townspeople into embracing their uniqueness; something she had never done herself. Hopefully it shows the reader how she grows as a person.

In GH, you really did a great job at pulling at the emotions in this one. I mean, normally in paranormal reads we fall in love/lust/hate with our characters, but in this one.. you pull at family, reasons we love them or hate them, wanting to soothe and comfort some, wanting to protect others.... Standing back from the book, how do you feel about that?

Our family has a major impact on how we view the world and ourselves. Especially our parents. They can give us confidence, or, in Ashley’s case, make us feel as if there’s something wrong with us. I do know a few people who are gay and the way Ashley’s mother is trying to make Ashley change, reminds me a lot of how some parents treat their gay children. So definitely things I’m going through or see in the news, has an impact in what I’m writing. Even if it’s not totally obvious to me, sometimes I’ll realize it later on.

Now this is a very important new release because this is your first self publishing book. Tell us what does that means to you as an author and us as the readers?

Hopefully, the only thing it means to the reader is that it’s only available in ebook format. I hope it’s still as well written as my two NY published books! As for me, it’s just another way to get my books to the public. Publishers are very, very limited in what they can print. A lot of good and interesting books get rejected because there isn’t room on the market, or just because of silly things. One editor wouldn’t even look at The Ghost Hunter because she said books with ghosts won’t sell. Imagine working on a book for 6 months and it being rejected! Before, if a book didn’t sell authors would just set it aside. Now, we have the opportunity to publish on our own. But as I mentioned, I am a little nervous about the book. Of course I want it to succeed, but whereas I had a publishing company to help me with my debut, this time the success of my book is totally dependant on me. Scary!

Do you think that this book will turn into a series?

You’re hearing it here first…

Omg... I am sooooo doing the happy dance!!!! **News**Here**First**!!!!!

I have started a second book staring Devon, a secondary character in The Ghost Hunter. Still not quite sure where it’s going, we’ll see. But I’m excited! A lot of people who have read The Ghost Hunter have also mentioned liking Camile; another secondary character. You will see her again in this second book and I have a little surprise in store!

OMG...... Devon gets his own story... Woooohooooo!!!! Okay, I will calm down to ask another question... What you have coming up next? (Pst... if you look on my side bar you will see, hee hee)

Wild Desire will be out in March! It was a really, really fun book to write. Very adventurous. It’s a historical paranormal and the hero is Colin, a secondary character from my first book, Wild Heart. I can’t wait until it comes out. I’m really excited about it.

Omg... I cannot tell you how happy I am that Colin is getting his own story! I am wondering if we get to see any Leo in this one??? Notice who I remember, lmbo!!! He is hot.. still thinking about him... whew! Any last words, comments or questions you would want to ask or be asked??

First of all, I love coming by here! Cecile, I adore you, your smuttiness and your tribal men. I’m so appreciative of everyone who has been so supportive. Really, the people I’ve met since becoming an author is the best thing about being published.

Aww, Ms. Lori, you are to adorable! I love having you over here... But I am sure my men love having you here more! Okay, you know you do not come to the Lair and escape the quickie session - believe me, you made me wait for my hot sexing in GH.... I am going to try to make you squirm just as much...

**evil laughter is starting to fill the room.... wicked glean in Cecile's eye.... hehehe**


The questions will be mixed due to Halloween this month and my bday!!! Hot, hard Alpha or
Alpha! Although in real life I’d probably want to slap one. I mean really, demanding and brooding, how long would we seriously put up with that? lol

Vampires or Werewolves? Leaning slightly toward Vampires. As I said in another interview, Werewolves would be leaving hair all over and constantly licking themselves.

Demon or Angles? Angels! There’s something very sexy about someone so good!

If you had one power, what would you posses? Hmm, healing others would be great. Actually, I have a healer in my book, Wild Desire. But I’d probably have to pick teleporting as I love to travel. It’d be great to just jump to other countries.

If you had one birthday wish that would truly come true.... what would you wish for? World Peace? Not! A cottage by the beach!

What is your favorite Halloween Costume (you didn't have to wear it, lol)? Lol, we had a Halloween party one year. I wore a medieval, velvet dress that was beautiful.

What has been your best birthday present ever? Oh god, at this age I try to forget my birthday! I do have to say though that now that my son is old enough to pick things out for me, I always love to see what he’s bought.

What do you give out for Halloween? Chocolate!

Whip Cream or Chocolate Syrup? Both!

Hard Candy or Soft Candy? LoL, as long as we’re really talking about candy here, soft.

Hot and Wild or Soft and Sweet? Both! No way you can pick just one.


**Okay... Cecile looks around... I'm starting to think that the Tribe has slipped in their own questions in here.....**


Lucien is my all Hot, Hard Alpha!


Okay boys... Ms. Lori is turning bright red... Ms. Lori, I want to thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come and sit a spell with us.... Cecile turns her head... and sees Lori running off with one of the Tribal Men... They are delicious!
