RELEASED March 1, 2013
Book Blurb:
Garrett Hawkins is the
most valuable asset to his Special Forces unit—because frankly, the guy
doesn’t care if he lives or dies anymore. Since the love of his life,
Sage Weston, was kidnapped and killed with her medical unit a year ago,
Garrett has turned the shell of his soul into the impenetrable armor of a
finely-tuned fighting machine. Being the first tapped for the unit’s
craziest missions is just fine by him. The less time for memories, and
the agony they carve into his soul, the better.
It’s a plan that works—until one night, deep in the jungles of Thailand, Garrett’s world is upended when memories become stunning reality. The unit is called to rescue a group of kidnapped aid workers, only the head count on the retrieval is unexpectedly doubled. Sage and her teammates, believed dead, are very much alive. Only now that Sage is back in his arms, Garrett doesn’t know what to do. He has changed in dramatic and daunting ways, especially in the darker tastes of his passion. If he touches Sage again, he’ll want to claim her, restrain her…dominate her.
Is Sage’s love strong enough to let Garrett back in not only as her fiancé, but her Dominant? Can she trust that visiting the new shadows of his life will lead her to ecstasy and not ruin? Or can it be that Garrett’s discipline is exactly what her own soul needs to find its way back to life—and love—once again?

Admit it. You all now love
the space-time continuum as much as I do.

“A
Day in the Life of Angel Payne”
Ohhh,
you twinsies!! You are funny with what you ask me to do! You really want to
know what a day in my life consists of? Seriously? Well…I am a creative girl.
And an avid fan of good sci-fi. So how about we have a little fun with the
space-time continuum?
First…reality.
4:30am:
Drag ass out of bed. (Yes, this is really what time I get up.)
4:45am:
Insert caffeine IV into vein while letting dog out. Wait while dog roams the
entire damn backyard picking out a place to pee.
4:55am:
Settle onto couch to write.
5:30am:
After getting in five paragraphs, get up because dog has barfed. Clean up said
barf.
5:40am:
Attempt to write some more.
6:40am:
Wake up kid, shower, wake up kid again, try to tame hair, wake up kid AGAIN,
attempt to slap on makeup (because I am SCARY without it), wake up kid ONCE
AGAIN, tame kid’s hair, make nicey at kid’s school during drop-off, pick up dry
cleaning, pick up cleaner for the carpet where dog barfed, scrub carpet again.
8:00am:
Start day job. I’m NOT going to bore you with THOSE details! And actually, I
really dig my day job on most days. I am a sales professional in the
hospitality industry, and I am blessed to work from home. It’s a phenomenal
business to be in. By the very nature of what we do, hospitality is filled with
a lot of friendly, goofy, terrific people. Most days, if I HAVE to be NOT
writing, this is what I’d choose to do.
3:00pm:
Pick up kiddo from school. Attempt to hide my wicked smirk as I stand in the
hall dreaming up a new book plot. Few of the other PTO moms know the secret
identity under my Green Day T-shirt and blue jeans. Those that do usually sidle
closer and whisper, “Hmmm, what are you thinking of NOW, girl?” Tee hee. If
they only knew.
6:00pm:
Day job ends. Peel off Green Day T-shirt and jeans (can I get another Amen?
AMEN!) and hop into “mom mode.” Homework, dinner, and catching up on my
favorite trashy entertainment shows. Hey, SOMEBODY has to care about Sean Lowe
finding happiness, right?
7:00pm:
WRITER HAT ON AGAIN! Yay! Sink blissfully into my newest work-in-progress!
9:00pm:
Break for kidlette’s bath and bed time.
9:30pm:
Back to writing until I pass out, which is usually around 10:30—if I make it
that long.
Okay…so…*ACTIVATES
SPACE-TIME CONTINUUM*…here is my fun little romp into another universe…
6:30am:
Stretch gloriously in bed and sing a song while birds and mice get me dressed
and fix my hair.
8:00am:
After a breakfast of chocolate crescents (calorie-free, of course), settle into
my writing nook to busily tap away at my newest best-selling tome. Lost in a
world of hunks, heroines, and hotness for hours. Write 3000 words!
11:30am:
Phone rings. Ohmygawsh, it’s Channing Tatum! What, Channing? You read “Save By
His Submissive” and think it would be a great movie? Why yes, I think you’d be
a GREAT Garrett Hawkins! Of course I’ll meet you at your mansion later to
discuss!
12:00
noon: Celebrate the Channing deal during a triple-orgasm nooner with my STUD
HUSBAND.
2:00pm:
(Okay, so maybe the nooner went longer than we thought.) Stumble into the
kitchen on noodle legs to get something to eat while birds and mice re-fix my
hair and makeup.
3:00pm:
Back to writing for a few blissful hours. Get in another 3000 words!
5:00pm:
Meet Channing at his mansion and enjoy margaritas with he and Jenna while we
ink the kick-ass movie deal. Watch him do flips into their pool, until Josh
Groban comes by for a little visit. As Josh plays the piano for us, Channing
reprises his Jimmy Kimmel picano hump too. Jenna and I clap in girlish delight.
7:00pm:
Curtain time! Meet stud husband to get in the newest Broadway musical at the
Pantages Hollywood, a gorgeous historical theatre.
10:00pm:
Cross the street and check in at the W Hollywood. Have major monkey sex in our
sumptuous suite, then sip champagne until I fall into a blissful sleep.
Goodnight, world. It’s been another “typical” day in the life of Angel Payne….
Author Bio:
Hi
there! I'm Angel: weirdo, pop-culture geek, hopeless romantic, and
totally OCD writer. I'm so glad you've found me, and I hope you like my
stuff. It truly comes from my heart.
I've loved reading all my life, and have been writing nearly that long, too. I think it started when I penned an 80-page novel about a time-traveling family for a 5th-grade school project. You could say I was hooked. In middle school, I moved to the hardcore stuff: the paragraph-at-a-time "swap-stories" with all my besties. (C'mon...don't lie...you remember those too!) Needless to say, the stories featured lots of French kissing, mindless groping and angsty drama - but I knew I'd found a niche when I was invited to participate in several more swap-stories on campus.
Some years, various entertainment writing gigs and a half-dozen historical romances later, I discovered the world of erotica - and home. (Not to mention a great place for all that angst I never gave up.) I love this genre - change that to love this genre - and hope my stories speak to your heart as well as your blood pressure, as well as your courage to explore new things and express your truth in beautiful new ways.
And where do I do all this? Well, if you ask my hubz, he'd likely say "on another planet," especially if I'm in story-brewing mode! The rest of the time, I live in Southern California with him and our gorgeous child, where I'm abnormally interested in travel, coffee, wine, shoes, super heroes, fetish wear, ridiculous pop culture trends - but most of all, hearing from fellow readers and erotica lovers like you. Drop me a line at my website or my Facebook page, or even here!

Not sure which part to post on first...especially since my 18 pound Siamese cat barfed on the floor just this morning. I swear it sounded like a human adult when it hit...thank god it was on the tile this time! I also love that your kid needs hair tamed like you do in the morning...that is hilarious to me for some reason (insert haystack joke here).
ReplyDeleteI think you rock....and your crazy life...and your fantasy life...especially when you and Jenna "girlishly clap" for your shared man....and your books and your sense of humor...blah blah blah...enough for you now or your head will get to big...
You mean my haystack head? *Giggle, laugh, clapping hands again* YEEAAAH...I got it in there!
Deletepppsssttt...its too late....you're still going to be punished with a a forced....truth!
