My Baby is Two! #BookBirthday More Than A Fantasy #1NS @DecadentPub

My Baby is TWO!

And what a fine, strapping two year old he is! Okay, before I get us in trouble, let me set the record straight. Gabriel is definitely of age to do all those wonderful things you’re thinking of when you look at him on the cover of More Than a Fantasy.

My baby is two because this is the two year book birthday for More Than a Fantasy, which began my journey with Decadent Publishing and 1Night Stand. What a fabulous two years it has been!

Since More Than a Fantasy, I have published three more 1Night Stand books -- One Night With the Bride, One Night With the Bridesmaid and One Night with the Groom – and contracted a fourth book, One Night With the Best Man.

I have also tried my hand at Decadent’s Challenge series, shedding tears as I wrote the book of my heart, Captivating the CEO.

When Decadent put out the call to create a twisted version of an assigned fairy tale at the beginning of this year, my hand shot in the air. I was assigned the obscure, slightly gruesome Three Army Surgeons, which I twisted into a comedic second chance romance in Once Upon a Marriage.

And just a couple weeks ago, I released A Model Hero – Mr. September in the sexy Calendar Men series.

All of this started two years ago when I read the guidelines for the 1Night Stand series and knew Madame Eve wanted me to bring Regina and Gabriel together for More Than a Fantasy:

Regina’s fantasies about her hot marketing assistant, Gabriel, are interfering with her focus at work. In desperation, she turns to Madame Eve to give her a one night stand with a man who looks just like him. When the Gabriel arrives in her hotel room, she must choose between walking away and playing out her daydreams with the real thing. Their one night becomes a wrestling match for control as Regina strives to keep the upper hand. But Gabriel is just as determined to show her how to work together for business and for pleasure.

As passion trumps protocol, their one night stand quickly becomes much more than a fantasy.

He strolled toward her, blocking the sunset and bringing his gorgeous blond curls into the full view of the overhead lights. A charismatic smile lit up his brown eyes, denting tiny grooves on each of his cheeks. “Regina.”

No. Not possible. Not funny, either. She hadn’t wanted the Gabriel. She wanted a fake, one with no career ambitions and a staggeringly low IQ. She’d spelled out her wants on the matchmaking form. “How did you get in here?”

“I checked in, same as you.”

Her mental agenda said she should be heavy petting her way to a blowjob. It did not include arguing semantics with her assistant or a potential sexual harassment suit.

She had to get him out of here before he ruined the match Madame Eve had set up. No matter how much the other guy looked like him, the more time she spent with Gabriel, the less she wanted anyone else in his place. “Where’s the man who’s supposed to be here?”

“I’m him.”

Desire hit her hard. Everything she wanted was in her reach. And as far away as ever.

Decoding the Emotional Disaster of the One-Night Stand #Backlist @DecadentPub

I find one-night stands fascinating. They’re supposed to happen once and then the parties go blithely on their way with no emotional implications. Yet, sex is often held up as the ultimate in intimate, vulnerable experiences. In a one night stand, the line between matters of the heart and pure physical expression all too easily begins to blur.

As a romance reader and author, I’m drawn to this roadmap for emotional disaster. The 1Night Stand series has upped the stakes even more by offering a service for those people who have specific requirements or otherwise need/want a service to set them.

Regina, the heroine of More Than a Fantasy, has a very specific agenda. She’s lusting over her hottie assistant, the guy she hired straight out of college, the guy who now golfs with her clients and takes the marketing staff out for beers. Meanwhile, she…well, she’s afraid she’s become extraneous in the very company she founded.

Her problem isn’t jealousy. Oh no, it’s lust. She can’t keep her mind on a single work-related thing when Gabriel is in sight. She just wants to lick him all over…hardly appropriate to mention in a meeting with the client.

Well, if unzipping his pants under the conference room table is taboo, she needs another strategy where she can act out all these fantasies with someone who welcomes them and harbors no expectations for the future. She absolutely cannot let this come back to hurt her reputation with her clients, so she signs up with Madame Eve’s high-caliber, discreet 1Night Stand company and sets off to meet her match.

However, Regina is not the only one who thinks hiring Madame Eve will solve her problems. Gabriel wants something too, and he’s willing to walk away from his dream job with Regina to make it come true.

Regina’s fantasies about her hot marketing assistant, Gabriel, are interfering with her focus at work. In desperation, she turns to Madame Eve to give her a one-night stand with a man who looks just like him. When the Gabriel arrives in her hotel room, she must choose between walking away and playing out her daydreams with the real thing. Their one night becomes a wrestling match for control as Regina strives to keep the upper hand. But Gabriel is just as determined to show her how to work together for business and for pleasure.

Black Friday Blog Hop

I started writing for my first multi-author series (The Wiccan Haus) one year ago. After I finished A Man Worth Fighting For, I started checking out my fellow Wiccan Haus sisters and realized Kate Richards and Dominique Eastwick had both written for Decadent Publishing's 1Night Stand series. In fact, Kate is one of the editors and creators of the series. Naturally, I had to learn more.

As soon as I read about Madame Eve's 1Night Stand service, I was captivated. Regina and Gabriel's story immediately took hold in my imagination.

MoreThan a Fantasy

Regina’s fantasies about her hot marketing assistant, Gabriel, are interfering with her focus at work. In desperation, she turns to Madame Eve to give her a one-night stand with a man who looks just like him. When the Gabriel arrives in her hotel room, she must choose between walking away and playing out her daydreams with the real thing. Their one night becomes a wrestling match for control as Regina strives to keep the upper hand. But Gabriel is just as determined to show her how to work together for business and for pleasure.

As passion trumps protocol, their one night stand quickly becomes much more than a fantasy.

Excerpt:

The balcony door slid open. The trim, broad-shouldered backside of a man with Gabriel’s basic frame entered. He was dressed in jeans and a dress shirt with the sleeves rolled up his forearms. Her fingers tingled at the prospect of touching his hard, muscled body and claiming it for the night.

The man secured the glass door then rotated toward her. Backlit by the setting sun, he had the same profile as Gabriel. Perhaps his hair was a tad darker, but she could overlook that. The lack of dimples was more disappointing.

He strolled toward her, blocking the sunset and bringing his gorgeous blond curls into the full view of the overhead lights. A charismatic smile lit up his brown eyes, denting tiny grooves on each of his cheeks. “Regina.”

No. Not possible. Not funny, either. She hadn’t wanted the Gabriel. She wanted a fake, one with no career ambitions and a staggeringly low IQ. She’d spelled out her wants on the matchmaking form. “How did you get in here?”

“I checked in, same as you.”
