Who's Who and What Came Before

Hello!
Anyone else as excited about football as I am? I admit it, I'm a huge NFL fan and am so glad the season's underway. Looking forward to some fall TV shows, new ones and returning favorites.

Today, I'd like to get you all caught up in the Who's Who and What Came Before regarding my highly sensual Contemporary Romances. While the books themselves are not a 'series', they do have common characters, with each having a central hero/heroine that have a story and HEA that's all their own.

To clear up some confusion, here's a quick glance at what books have come before the most recent release, Cuff Master, Ellora's Cave Taboo.

Quarterback Blitz, Ellora's Cave Sophisticate Erotic Romance, which features hero and veteran QB Kyran Black for the Alexandria Griffins and the team's mascot, Anna James, a high school physical education teacher and assistant JV football coach who needs the extra $ being a mascot provides.

Kyran and Anna's story introduces readers to Kyran's best friends from his college days at LSU, sports agent Alexander Grant and PI/Tattoo artist Phalen Maddox, a former Special Ops soldier.

Field of Play, Ellora's Cave Moderne, returns to the world of professional football with Alexandria Griffins wide receiver, Dallas McKay, and PI Grace Daniels, who's been hired by Dallas to help find his biological parents.

This story features the return of Phalen Maddox, who assists Grace in the investigation when it becomes necessary to call in some extra help. Sports agent Alexander Grant, who represents Dallas, also makes an appearance.

Ink Master, Ellora's Cave Taboo, is an Erotic Romance with strong BDSM elements, minus the sadism. Phalen Maddox, the hero, is a Dom who recognizes that Cassie Williams, the owner of a bookstore-diner in Salem, MA is a submissive in denial and is determined to claim her as his.

Ink Master introduces readers to the Maddox brothers, Detective Ethan Maddox and soon-to-be Attorney-at-Law, Taran Maddox, each Dominants, and their future heroines, Morgan Everhart and Detective Samantha Riley.

Morgan, you see, is a psychic with the gifts of psychometry and communicating with ghosts, while Ethan, a detective used to dealing with cold, hard evidence and facts to solve a case, struggles to understand her abilities. Sam, on the other hand, is a bombshell blonde capable of kicking some serious ass and Taran's future? Stay tuned to find out.

Playing Doctor, Ellora's Cave Spectrum, is agent Alexander Grant and Dr. Ryan Hathaway's sexy love story. The two have a history, dating to when they were growing up. Ryan was introduced in Quarterback Blitz, as Kyran's surgeon. He and Alex were reunited in QB Blitz after Kyran was injured, and in Ink Master, Ryan returns to claim his man!

And that brings everything to the here and now, Cuff Master, Ellora's Cave Taboo, Ethan and Morgan's HEA. Here's a blurb:

Detective Ethan Maddox and psychic Morgan Everhart are on the cusp of a relationship, if she can forgive him for doubting her abilities when they first met. A Master with a fetish for handcuffs, he recognizes Morgan is a submissive who needs a patient man to guide her safely into the D/s lifestyle. He is determined to claim her.

Inviting her for a moonlit walk, Ethan kisses Morgan and her seduction begins, until a teenaged ghost interrupts. Ethan is skeptical of the supernatural, but if he doesn’t open his mind he may never collar the woman he loves.

As they work together to solve a cold case, Ethan introduces Morgan to the very dark, seductive world of sex, submission, bondage and dungeons. All the while, danger is growing. If Ethan doesn’t find a young girl’s killer soon, all could be lost.

Reader Advisory: Morgan’s sexual awakening includes watching a scorching-hot brief scene of male/male lust, with Ethan by her side.

Cuff Master is Available Now!

Hello everyone,
I'm so very excited. Can you tell? Why, you might ask? Because Cuff Master is now available from Ellora's Cave Taboo.

Here's a quick link to Cuff Master on Ellora's Cave's New Release page: http://www.jasminejade.com/p-10258-cuff-master.aspx

I also have a blurb and an excerpt to share to whet your appetite! Be advised that Cuff Master is a Taboo with paranormal/supernatural elements and features a couple engaging in a D/s lifestyle. While there's bondage, light discipline, there is never abuse or physical harm to another person in this story or any story that I write featuring BDSM.

It is my hope that you'll give Detective Ethan Maddox and his shy psychic, Morgan Everhart, a chance and love them as much as I do.

If you'd like to read the excerpt, please follow the link. For reasons my techno-klutz personality can't figure out just yet, the blurb kept posting awkwardly. It's a PG-13 excerpt, just an FYI, and I hope you'll like it. In coming days, Cuff Master will be availabe via Amazon, B&N, ARe and various other vendors. I'll post links as they come to me.

In honor of Cuff Master's release, I'm holding a contest which will last until August 31! Leave a comment on this blog that features your favorite ghost story. Everyone has the chance to win a digital copy of a book on my backlist, which you can find if you check out my author page on Ellora's Cave's website. Thanks for playing and don't forget to leave an email address so that I can contact you if your name is drawn for the contest.

Thank you everyone. Celebrating for the rest of the day!
