I. welcome

Hi guys well, another month is rolling past and I am still writing my butt off.  Since this is October all our thoughts turn to Halloween.  Ghosts and goblins and witches and also, what the heck am I gonna dress the kids as for trick-or-treat?  Since this is my son Benjamin’s first Halloween I wanted to put him in something really cute and take tons of pictures (I’m like a junkie when it comes to taking pics of him, always gotta have more).  The problem is, living here in Tampa it’s too hot for all those really cute suits that I guess are manufactured up North somewhere it’s already 30 degrees at night.  Here in Florida the temp is still up in the 80s during the day and not much cooler at night.  So my little snickerdoodle is going to be a ninja—not because it was the cutest costume I found but because it seemed like the one least likely to cause a heat stroke. 

Anyway in this issue I’ll give you a look at what I’m working on, what books are coming out next, and what I’m reading for my own personal enjoyment. Happy reading!

II. Current Releases

Now out from Ellora’s Cave just in time for your Halloween treat.
Red and the Wolf is the story of a not-so-wicked witch and the werewolf she has the hots for. Here’s a blurb and Excerpt to give you an idea of what it’s all about.

Red and the Wolf by Evangeline AndersonRed and the Wolf
Available now at Ellora's Cave!

Sara Jensen is the local town witch in Buck Lake, Tennessee. More than anything she misses her older brother and his best friend Reeve who are overseas in the Marine Corps. But when her brother is killed in action, Reeve comes back with a secret—an ancient crone laid a curse on him that turns him into a ravening wolf every full moon.

Sara has a secret of her own—she’s head over heels for Reeve and has been since they were kids. When he comes to her house on Halloween night asking for help, she inadvertently lays a fidelity spell on him while trying to keep him in his human form. Sara knows she must undertake the difficult and dangerous task of lifting his curse. But when the wolf within him is banished, the fidelity spell will be lifted too and his love for her will disappear. 

Now Sara must choose between keeping the love of her life, and lifting the curse that threatens his very existence.

III. Coming Soon

I’m happy to announce that I am giving a new publisher a try. Coming in November from Samhain is Wishful Thinking, the first book in a series called The Swann Sisters Chronicles. The Swann sisters are all one eight fairy—not enough to give them any magical powers of their own but since they have fairy blood in their veins they are assigned a fairy godmother. A fairy godmother from hell, that is. Forget sweet and kind and Bibbity-bobbity-boo, this godmother doesn’t care who her magic hurts and the sisters have to fend for themselves. This first book is about Philomena, the oldest sister and don’t worry, it’s not all crazy adventures—there is also some very naughty sex. In fact it’s one of my favorite themes is erotic or romantic fiction, best friends become lovers. Here’s a blurb and an excerpt to give you an idea.

Red and the Wolf by Evangeline AndersonWishful Thinking
Coming soon from Samhain Publishing!

Philomena Swann has it tough.  She has a fiancé that seems to have lost interest in their love life, a rotten job with a boss that ought to be the poster boy for sexual harassment, and a temperament so mild she can’t stand up for herself.  And to make matters worse, her twenty-fifth birthday is coming up and she has to think up a wish.  Why?  Because Phil and her sisters are one eighth fairy—not enough to give them magical powers but sufficient to rate them a fairy godmother from hell so reckless with her wand they all live in fear of their birthday wishes.

All Phil wants is to make a wish so small and insignificant it won’t mess up her life.  But after a horrible day, she accidentally shouts out a wish to speak her mind…and then finds she can’t stop.  Between telling everyone exactly what she thinks of them and trying to deal with her eccentric grandmother who’s been brewing botched love potions to catch herself a man, Phil has her hands full.

When she starts finding out some startling things about everyone she knows—such as how her hot and hunky co-worker and best friend Josh really feels about her—Phil knows she’s made a wish that will change her world forever.  If it doesn’t ruin her life first.

IV. Work in Progress

I’m currently working on a new sci-fi M/F book called Str8te Boys which I’ll be sending to Ellora’s Cave. It’s a M/M book in which the characters turn out to be anything but straight although they do start out that way. I don’t know when it will come out—probably sometime in 2009 but I’ll give you a blurb to give you an idea of what it’s about.

Str8te Boys by Evangeline Anderson
Coming sometime in 2009

How far would you go on a dare?

Maverick Holms shares his college apartment with his best friend Duke Warren. The captain and goalkeeper of the soccer team, both men are extremely competitive. But when Duke dares Mav to a game of “gay chicken” things start getting out of hand. To play, two straight guys get closer and closer to kissing and the one that pulls away first is the loser. Neither man is willing to back down and soon the game becomes an excuse to kiss and touch in a very forbidden way. But it isn’t until Mav and Duke pose for a gay website called Str8te Boys to earn money that things really start heating up.

Soon Duke is talking about a lifetime commitment but Mav isn’t ready to admit what he is or what he really wants from his best friend. Hurt and confused, Duke is about to step out of his life forever.

Now Mav will have to choose what is more important to him—the man he loves or his identity as one of the straight boys.

In this section I’ll give you an idea of the kind of thing I read for fun and I warn you, it’s not all erotica. I tend to like sci-fi and YA too so whether you pick up any of the books is up to you.

Kushiel’s Dart by Jacqueline Carey

This is the first book in a series set in the world of Terre d’Ange, a place of  grandeur, luxuriance, sacrifice, betrayal, and deeply laid conspiracies. Phedre no Delaunay is born with a scarlet mote in her left eye that marks her as an anguisett, one who takes sensual pleasure in pain.  Yes, she is a natural masochist, the first one seen in Terre d’Ange is generations which makes her extremely valuable to the nobles of the country who are dedicated sadists. 

At a young age Phedre is sold into indentured servitude to become a courtesan. When her bond is purchased by an enigmatic nobleman, she is trained in history, theology, politics, foreign languages, and the arts of pleasure. Above all, she learns the ability to observe, remember, and analyze. Exquisite courtesan, yet talented spy, she may seem an unlikely heroine... but when Phedre stumbles upon a plot threatening her homeland, Terre d'Ange, she has no choice but to act. Betrayed into captivity in the barbarous northland of Skaldia, and accompanied only by a disdainful young warrior-priest, Jocelyn, who soon becomes her lover, Phedre makes a harrowing escape and an even more harrowing journey, to return to her people and deliver them a warning of the impending invasion. 

A gorgeous, lush book, I adore this whole series and am actually in the middle of the second book in the second trilogy but I wanted to recommend the first one for anyone who is interested.  The books are a little slow to start since Carey takes her world building seriously but they are well worth getting into.  By the end of every single one you are holding on to the edge of your seat wondering if Phedre is going to make it or not.  Of course, the sensual portrayal of BDSM relationships doesn’t hurt but the sex isn’t really what the book is all about although Phedre’s status as an anguisett underlies the entire narrative.  It’s all about the story here and Carey is a master storyteller.  I highly recommend the whole series.

VI. Excerpt

Red and the Wolf by Evangeline AndersonKristen's Addiction by Evangeline Anderson
Now Available at Ellora's Cave!

“Are you okay in there?” Joe was knocking impatiently on the bedroom door and I realized I had been taking a long time to get dressed. But the clothes he’d brought me weren’t exactly the easiest things to get into without help. Not that I was going to ask him to come in and help me.

“I’m fine,” I called back, giving myself another once-over in the antique oval mirror that had been my grandmothers. I reflected that his friend Samantha must have a kinky streak a mile wide and was glad I didn’t know her personally. Wearing clothes like these you either needed a collar or a whip and I wasn’t sure I was ready to wear one or carry the other.

I had on a red leather corset-type bustier that supported my breasts generously, making them look even bigger than they were. There was black lacing and a series of hooks and eyes up the front which had taken me forever to figure out and black lace around the bottom edge. It was a beautiful item of clothing but unfortunately the red leather cups that held my breasts didn’t even cover the nipples. There was a little bit of black netting around each one that could be pulled up to form a semblance of modesty but even it was see-through, making me feel incredibly exposed.

The bottom of the outfit was, if possible, even skimpier. There was a black leather skirt that was so short it was almost non-existent and some black thigh-high boots with four inch heels that somehow managed to make my short, stubby legs look long and slender. I had added a pair of black lace panties of my own since the outfit hadn’t come with any. Not that I would have worn some strange vampire’s underwear anyway, even if they had been offered to me.

“Kristen?” Joe sounded frustrated. “It’s gettin’ late. What are you doing in there?”

“Just…trying to get used to the idea of being seen in public like this,” I said, turning from side to side in front of the mirror.

“Let me see.” There was a note of command in his voice again and I felt a rush of desire that made my pussy wet. I didn’t like the hold he had over me when I was in this state. I thought of telling him to go to hell…but I sighed and opened the door instead. He was going to see me sooner or later anyway—there was really no point in delaying.

Joe gave me a once over and let out a long, low wolf whistle that made me blush. “You look hot, Kristen. Fuckin’ gorgeous. Not exactly the saint that spends all her spare time patchin’ up hurt kids that your neighbor seems to think you are.”

“Well, this isn’t what I usually wear to the clinic,” I said, trying to keep things light even though his dark eyes raking over my body were making me feel hot and exposed. “Not unless I wore a white lab coat over it, anyway,” I added.

He growled low in his throat. “Now that’s a hot idea. We’ll have to try that out sometime. Turn around and let me see you.” He made a twirling motion with his finger and I obeyed, turning in a slow circle for his approval.

“Nice. Very nice,” he murmured appreciatively. Then he frowned. “Wait a minute. Lift your skirt.”

“What?” I looked at him uncertainly. “But why…?”

“Do it.” He was suddenly close, towering over me. “Or do I have to do it myself?”

“No, I-I’ll do it,” I stuttered. Feeling horribly exposed and incredibly hot, I lifted the stiff leather to reveal the black lace panties I had on.

Joe glared. “What the hell are those?” he demanded, staring at the tiny patch of black lace between my thighs.

“Panties,” I said, hesitantly. “They…the outfit didn’t come with any so I…”

“So you thought you’d add some?” He lifted my chin in his hand, and looked down into my eyes. “Let me tell you something, Kristen, it didn’t come with panties because I don’t want you wearing any.” He reached between my legs, cupping my sex with one large, callused hand. “I need him to be able to smell your sweet pussy,” he growled, rubbing the soft lace of the panties against my wet folds. “Need him to be able to tell how hot and wet you are in order to draw him in.”

I gasped and moaned as his big fingers continued to caress me. His touch was starting a fire in my veins and all I could think about was how he had gone down on me before he’d bitten me the last time. I wanted his hands and his mouth on me now, wanted to feel his fangs sinking into my inner thigh.

“Please…” I whispered, unable to stop myself from begging. “Please, Joe, I need it so bad…”

“Christ, I want to fuck you.” He ripped the panties away with a single, violent motion and suddenly there was nothing between my naked cunt and his hand. He plunged his fingers into me, filling me to the limit as I moaned and writhed shamelessly against him. The sensations were so hot I could barely get out the words but I managed to ask him anyway.

“Then…then why don’t you? You promised you would.”

He frowned. “I may have to later. Nothing would bring him faster that to see me fucking you, to watch my cum dripping out of your pussy as I filled you with my cock.”

The hot words sent a shiver of desire along my spine and I knew I was on the sharp edge of an orgasm. If he would rub my clit, just a little as he fingered me I would go off like a rocket. But Joe seemed to avoid doing exactly that. He continued to plunge his fingers into my slippery cleft but he hardly touched my throbbing clit, even though I was arching against him like a cat, trying to press my swollen folds against the rough palm of his hand.

“Please, Joe…” I moaned but he shook his head.

“Master. Tonight you’ll call me Master. Understand, slave?”

“Yes. Yes, Master,” I moaned as I tried to rub myself against him.

“Good.” He nodded. “I want you to remember that. Anything I tell you to do, no matter who’s watching or how embarrassed you feel, all you say is “Yes Master,” and do it. I don’t care if I tell you to lift up your skirt and show someone your pussy or get down on your knees and suck my cock. You don’t question—you just obey.”

“Yes, Master,” I whispered again, too far gone with the need to argue with him. “Please, Master, please let me come. I can’t stand it anymore!”

“You’ll have to.” He pulled his fingers out and, making sure I was watching, slipped them into his mouth and sucked my honey off them. “God, baby, your pussy juice tastes almost as good as your blood,” he rumbled, cupping my cheek with his free hand. “Come on, let’s get to the club and catch this son of a bitch so I can take you home and fuck you.”

Kristen's Addiction is now available at Ellora's Cave!
