Fiery
Ember
Ember Ellason is a darned good secretary. True,
she’d like
to be more, but her step-mother runs Ellason Advertising now that her
father has passed and Claudette, her step-mother, feels Ember is only
good enough to fetch coffee… barely. Not content
with her
life as a secretary, she takes night classes to get her degree in
marketing. Good thing, too. Because when Claudette,
nor her
horrid daughters, show up for the meeting with the biggest client they
could ever land, Ember steps in to save the day. Sort
of.
Clementine and Ember sound alike… in a way. A
little white
lie about her name couldn’t be the end of the world,
right?
Besides, what could it hurt?

March
Madness - What Goes Up
The short
story that won Loose Id's March Madness contest has been tripled in
length and is coming soon to Loose Id! Woot!
The creators of Mission Impossible would be proud. After
weeks of
preparation, spying, bribing and general underhanded behavior, Ashley
was about to get her reward: Trevor. The man had proven to be
stubborn and she was just as determined to prove she could out-stubborn
him. He didn't have a chance. The mighty Trevor had
risen
up the corporate ladder, but Ashley remembered one of her grandma's
favorite sayings from childhood. What goes up, must come
down. And Ashley would make darned sure that Trevor would be
going down in this exact elevator at this exact time and if she just
happened to be going along for the ride in her new domme
wear…
well, so be it.

Interview
-- Nina Pierce
Nina
Pierce began writing as a lark when her health forced her retirement
from a twenty year teaching career. As someone who has always loved hot
stories and happy endings she sat down to write her first romance in
2005 and she hasn’t looked back. Now her characters wake her
in
the night, clamoring to have their stories told.
A native of Maine, Nina resides in what she affectionately calls
“the great white north” with her true love of
twenty-four
years, their three grown children and a menagerie of pets.
You can keep up with her hottest releases at www.NinaPierce.com or
contact her directly at Nina @ NinaPierce.com
She's also the author of a scorching hot series from Liquid Silver
Books called Tilling Passions. Here's the blurby
goodness
from the first book, Blind Love:
Book I of
the Tilling Passions Series
In Blind
Love, the first
novella in the Tilling Passions series, uptight CPA and oldest sister,
Julie Tilling, is the glue that binds her family. Everyone, including
her parents, depend on her to do the right thing. But when her friend
from high school dies, and Julie is the only one who believes he
didn’t commit suicide, she takes it upon herself to
investigate
his death. Her search for answers finds her flirting on the fringes of
internet pornography. But Julie’s desire to find a killer and
experience a sexual awakening may push her moral boundaries to the
breaking point.
Damon Corey
didn’t
come to Maine to become shock jock Demon Jones. But when his dream
career of becoming a concert pianist seems unobtainable, the radio
station’s offer is too good to pass up. Besides, being a
radio
celebrity has definite advantages with the ladies. When a mysterious
brunette, Jewel, hooks up with him at the night club run by a college
frat brother, their one night fling wraps around his heart and
won’t loosen its talons.
Julie and
Damon feel the
heat of passion from the moment they meet, but will their secrets
unravel the tenuous threads of their relationship? Can Damon expose his
inner soul without pushing Julie away, or will his enigmatic Demon
Jones persona become Julie’s sexual undoing and reveal him as
the
missing piece that solves the puzzling questions surrounding her
friend’s death?
Buy
it from Liquid Silver Books TODAY!
1) If you were a superhero, what name would you go by? What powers
would you have?
Cyclona!
I would be able to clean through my house in 5 minutes flat including
laundry, dishes (ick), vacuuming and dusting (quadruple ick!)
And
I’d morph into a body that could wear a bikini while I did it
all! That would leave me plenty of time to write and hang out with my
friends.
2) Suppose you're a spy, what would be your codename? What would be the
name of your make believe organization? What are the must-have gadgets
in your arsenal?
Sexy
Thang and the Thongs. We’d pounce on unsuspecting men, teach
them
how to be romantic and turn them into real life romance heroes. Of
course we’d be armed with dreamy-eye transformers, sexy voice
equalizers, romantic talk vocalizing wands, and error free erogenous
zone finders. Oh yeah, we’d have our work cut out for us, but
women everywhere would be eternally grateful for our covert operation.
3) What type of music or song makes you want to get up and dance
regardless of where you are?
The
new song for the MacIntosh laptop, “New Soul” by
Yael Naim.
It makes me dance in my chair. Here’s the YouTube addie
http://youtube.com/watch?v=5CsZGoxBtKk I just love, love,
love,
that song!
Oh,
and I looove the Monkey’s version of “I’m
a Believer. It makes me dance every time!
4) If you were a world ruler and you were given a choice of 5 laws to
enact, what would they be?
1)
No fighting or arguing.
2)
Fair pay for fair work.
3)
No child goes hungry or unloved.
4)
All red tape and hoops would be taken away from medical insurance
companies. This would eliminate the wasted phone conversations and the
jumping people would need to do to make claims.
5)
I have the last say on everything … any questions, see #1
5) Would you have a Hottie Harem and who would you invite to join?
Oh,
I get to choose. Okay, *cracks knuckles*
Adrian
Paul - just to stare at.
Sean
Connery - love his voice! He could read the cereal box and sound sexy
to me!
Matthew
Mcconaughey - to make me laugh. I love when he laughs
Vin
Diesel - Because every harem needs a bad boy
Will
Smith - Just to round it all out!
6) Who would you love to write a book with? (Other than me, but if it
is me, that’s okay too. *sigh* It’s a
hard life I lead… being so loved as I am. *smirk*)
If
you mean like actually write words together, I’m not sure I
could
do that. I don’t play nice on the keyboard! *cackle* But if
you
mean do an anthology with … well, that’s a long
list.
I’m psyched to say I got to share a title with you and Tina
Holland … yay us! And that was a blast. But I
wouldn’t
mind having my work along side James Patterson or Tess Gerritsen or
Mary Higgins Clark. Wow, I could sure learn a lot from them!
7) If you could choose one of your characters to live
happily-ever-after with, who would you choose and which book is he
from? (No, you cannot pick your significant other or
hubby.
We’re living in fantasy land, so fantasize already.)
Oh,
fantasy … me like! I love my heroes. I fall in love with
them
every time as they fall in love with their ladies. But I think if it
were forever, I’d like to go to the 22nd century and be with
Brenimyn from The Healer’s Garden. *sigh* He’s
strong and
fighting for a cause, but he’s so tender at the same time.
He’s willing to sacrifice everything for the woman he loves.
Oh,
and the man knows how to satisfy a woman. Yeah, I definitely pick him!
8) If you were making a reality show, what
name
would you give it? What would it be about? And who from your
“circle of friends” would be there to back you up?
I’d
love to see a reality show titled “Housewives in
Leather”.
10 housewives live in a BDSM club for a month. For the sake of the
innocent I couldn’t tell you who would be there with me.
*cackle*
But I know for sure … none of us would want to leave!
9) What books are you currently reading?
(Other than
your own stuff over and over again as you go through edits.
Edits
don’t count as reading.) 
I
read all kinds
of stuff. I read several of your shifter stories, Ce (No, I’m
not
trying to get in your good graces … I really did. Loved em
by
the way!)
I’m now enjoying some Roxy Harte and Eden Bradley stories.
That’s research for a novel I’m working on. I love
Dean
Koontz for the in depth way he tells a story and John Grisham
for the way he gets his characters in a bind and then works them out of
that impossible situation.
10) Last question: There's a major battle
between
Harry Potter and his gang, the crew from the Lord of the Rings, Pokemon
and The Smurfs. Who would you back to win in a no holds barred battle?
Why?
Harry
Potter and his cronies … hands down. Have you seen what they
do
with those wands? Impressive stuff. And with things like poly-juice
potion in their arsenal they can pretend to be anyone they want and
infiltrate the other factions. Yeah, definitely that gang. And poor
Papa Smurf wouldn’t know what hit him in that battle. About
the
only group they could beat would be the Care Bears. But in reality
those two groups probably couldn’t work up a good case of mad
between them!
