Erotic Authors You Might Not Know ...YET

Today I wanted to introduce some erotic romance authors you might not be familiar with. Many of them are on my list of those I have to watch for new books. I'm always looking for someone new to read since the books just don't come out fast enough to suit me. Sound familiar?

Men In Uniform

What is so alluring about a man in uniform?

 

Oh! Let me count the ways!

(1)    Authority:  Who doesn’t love a big strong alpha man in uniform? The air of authority that comes with a uniform makes us women weak at the knees.  The basic instinct of being protected and secure in a big strong alpha man’s presences is warm and inviting.  And it helps that most of them are in pretty damn good shape. 

(2)    Command and Control.  Need I say more?  How about those handcuffs?  That water hose that could never douse the flame of desire these men set racing through you.  The aggressive, hungry, way the come home after months on a warfront.  There is also a tenuous vulnerability in these men that is sweet and attractive. 

(3)    What about those big guns… *le sigh*

(4)    Rescue me!  What woman hasn’t dreamt of a knight coming to rescue her?  Doesn’t matter of it’s a street wise Sampson, GI Joe or just plain Officer/Fireman Joe. Who doesn’t want to be carried off and rescued?  Show of hands please?  You know they play as hard as they work.

(5)    Sensitivity to a cause greater than themselves:  These big guys have an even bigger heart.  They understand what’s at stake.  They know that dedicating themselves to a higher purpose is not just a job but a calling.  The need to be heroic isn’t their motivation.  The desire to protect and serve is their driving force. 

 

Let’s not stop at number five… Give me six, seven, eight, nine, ten, etc…

 

What do I write about?  Men in uniform, of course!  BlackOps Brotherhood Series is my flagship series of books.  These stories are about exciting men and women who play just as hard as they work.  This series will appeal to both men and women with hard hitting military action and the right blend of erotic romance.  This series deals with real world issues and real time relationships complicated by the ever changing mission of the military.  Theirs is a world of intrigue that is experienced by very real heroes and heroines.  These strong women and even stronger men find ways to save the world and keep loving, sometimes dark relationships going behind closed doors.  Book one in the series is Rapid Dominance is due out for release October 24 from Siren BookStrand.  Check out the excerpt at: http://www.bellajuarez.com/titles-blackops-brotherood/rapid-dominance/

Do Covers Make The Books?

When you look at the cover of a book, do you see sexy and nearly naked? Or do you see what you expect the book to be about? As authors, we want our book covers to reflect what is inside the book. We feel like you as readers want to be able to tell something about the story by what the cover looks like. Unfortunately, that isn't always the case. The publisher usually has the last word, and sometimes, the only word on what goes into the creation of the cover.

I'm lucky. My publisher listens to what I ask for and tries to provide based on what they know sells. I've been very happy with all of my covers. Even the few that seemed a little weird proved to be good sellers. I don't complain about my covers at all.

Still, I'd like to know what you think about covers you see. Do you chose a book to buy based on the cover? Does it even play into your decision to buy it? Will you check on a book that looks good by the cover even if your not sold by the title? I'd really like to know what you think.

When I chose a book, I look at the cover and then chose by how I like the blurb. I know some readers who go strictly by the blurb or by reviews and don't pay any attention at all to the cover. Tell me what you think. I'd really like to know.

I'm going to share some covers with you just for the fun of it. Some are mine and some are friends of mine. Enjoy!   Marla Monroe My Website      My Email
