Celebrating A New Contemporary Gay Romance From Carolina Valdez

Today on our Cyber Launch Party Blog, we're celebrating a new Amber Allure release for bestselling author Carolina Valdez.  

Carolina warns not to be fooled by the photo. "Even if you walk most of the race, you want to be sure to break into a run for the camera." Although most of her running days have morphed into walking days, she's completed over a hundred distance races - six of them marathons. Her short story about a murder on the streets she's actually competed on, in the Los Angeles Marathon, appears in a Sisters in Crime/Los Angeles anthology.

After a varied career as a registered nurse while winning awards and making sales writing freelance, she decided to retire to finish her first novel. Now she writes about searing passions and the sweetly explosive ecstasies of love.

IN FROM THE COLD by Carolina Valdez

East is East and West is West, and never the twain shall meet...

Jon and Wendell were fourteen when they first experimented with each other and discovered they were gay. Lovers and in love, they drifted apart after graduation when Jon left to follow his dream to rock 'n' roll stardom. A heartbroken Wendell recovered by earning an animal husbandry degree at a California university. He returned to the small Oregon town where they'd grown up to raise sheep with his father.

Ten years later, Wendell's contentment is shattered when Jon and his band arrive to play for their high school reunion. Love surprises both men by immediately flaring into liquid heat. Jon begs Wendell to give up his life in Oregon and live with him in New York City. Wendell refuses, however, asking Jon to move in with him instead. But Jon refuses to abandon his career and returns to Manhattan.

Will Wendell and Jon remain star-crossed lovers, or will they find a way to bridge the distance and discover the true meaning of "home"?

Note: IN FROM THE COLD is included in the five-story erotic gay WHERE THE HEART IS AmberPax

Celebrating A Hot New Paranormal Romance From Sam Cheever

Sam writes fast paced fantasy and romantic fiction with feisty characters who deal with life's little challenges in unique and often hilarious ways. As a reader Sam is very impatient. She quickly loses interest if a story doesn't have a good pace and snappy dialogue. Sam's inability to focus in a backwash of human angst and subtleties works out well for her readers, since she writes the way she likes to read.

In her real life, Sam lives on a hobby farm in Indiana with 10 dogs, 4 horses, 2 barn cats, 2 daughters, and one husband. Not necessarily in that order.

Celebrating A New Erotic Horror Thriller In The Blood Companion Series

Today we're celebrating the release of THE LIGHTHOUSE, a new erotic horror thriller in Jason Daniel Kowalczyk in his Blood Companion Series written by Jason and Liliana West.

Jason was born in Lorain, Ohio, to Jeanne Furci (now Wysocki) and Stanley John Kowalczyk (1942-2009), grew up in Lehigh Acres, Florida, then Long Beach, California, and returned to Florida to finish High School. He currently resides in Moberly, Missouri with his fiance, Melissa, and her son from a previous relationship, Alex..

For thirty years he lived in Florida, writing as a hobby until he moved to Missouri. His first book, "The Blood Companion," was finally finished in 2007. He later slammed into overdrive and belted out several within the next three years.

Jason has been a writer for almost his entire life. He writes his tales as if he were sitting on the couch together with his readers, having a conversation. Writing the way he does has opened him up to a lot of criticism in his chosen career, but whenever he begins to think about changing his style, he'll get a phone call or an email from a reader telling him how much he or she loved his work and wondering when the next book will be along.

So no matter what happens or how small or large his fan base becomes, Jason will always be grateful for the fans he has and will strive to entertain them every chance he gets.

"Jay is one of the best story-tellers I know. He has a way of painting a picture with his words that really draws you in. He has a vivid imagination and is an open person who always wears his heart on his sleeve."-Melissa Tetreault-
