Book Description:
Siler Dunham would do anything to have Farraj Reza, hero of the smash network TV drama, Endangered. Every week she tunes in to watch him calculate the rescue of fellow bus crash survivors trapped deep in the jungle by a ruthless drug lord.
A federal public defender with a penchant for saving the unsavable, she can’t resist his sad story, or his badass charm. When she seeks a matchmaking service to meet him, their one night stand isn't what she expected. Forced to choose between unbridled lust and compassion, Siler must forgo her fantasy... or mustn’t she?
Excerpt
Chapter One
Lost in the wild
Captive by circumstance…
Endangered
He had no flaw. The character hated swimming, a permissible preference, otherwise he was strong, dark, mysterious, a whiz with technology, compassionate, and smoking hot. More than all of that, she ached to save him. After years of servitude hacking U.S. GPS drone systems for the Iranian military, he’d broken away by selling Intel to the American government. Finally able to enjoy his first vacation, he was in a bus crash, then later abandoned by the other survivors.
She could save him, restore his faith in humanity, on her knees or bent over a table, which for most men would inspire just fine. She saw no limit to the possibilities in smoothing the ever-present worry lines from his brow.
Ever obsessing about the show with her friends was one thing. After it aired, they’d all bed their boyfriends, even Frank, and through squinted eyes fantasize the cock in them belonged to their television lover. Siler didn’t have that outlet, hadn’t had it for ages. The girls all thought her lack of mate some prudish nod to morality, or deep-seated insecurity. They didn’t know she’d enjoyed raucous sexual freedom in her younger years. No, she didn’t have men at her door in droves now, but not for lack of trying on their part. Her dedication to becoming a federal public defender, however thankless, and saving the unsavable eradicated any hope of a personal life.
Yes, she missed the regularity of a thorough dicking, but it had always come at a high price, one she refused to pay again. Through her twenties, casual sex had been fine, fun, even. But a thirty-year-old bar hopper was just sad, and at thirty-two, after shallow dalliances with a string of Mr. Wrongs, she’d given up.
A year and a half ago.
Being drawn into Endangered proved the perfect Prozac. Her spirits lifted. The relief of not looking for Mr. Right left her free to focus on her caseload, to connect with her clients—society’s castoffs—and try to fulfill her purpose of helping others. Sexual needs became muted, manageable with the right tools—for the most part. Occasionally her body ached for release under someone else’s touch, and in her mind he always had an olive complexion, not to mention agile fingers masterfully working her clit.
Every time, she closed her eyes, she saw Farraj. His face above hers, lips parted in a moan. His lean, hard body moving over, around, in her. His rolling, rich accent asking, “Like this?”
And why wouldn’t it be him? Fantasy gave better than the womanizing pricks her social circle presented. As a well-off single woman, no pressure urged her to find a mate, materially, or even socially. Siler could hold out for the hot love she wanted, and despite how insane, how irrational, she wanted Farraj Reza. Only one avenue presented itself to get him.
About the Author:
Erotic mezzofiction writer, Fierce is imagination shapeshifted as a scribe taunting blank pages and carpal tunnel, neither of which are much use for deadlines. Close allies are impeccable timing and a trusty masseuse. Being a switch I/ENFP doesn’t hurt. For kicks Fierce has other personas across several genres, tends to fill in “Other” on surveys without explaining, and chooses the finality of the Japanese Tamagotchi.

The Summer is great for quick reads! At the beach, on the road trip to vacation or wherever!
Some of my current favorite quick reads are the 1Night Stand books from Decadent Publishing. They are short books that are more story than sex. Surprising in the whole dating service for one night of sex premise. Happily theses stories have much more heart than one would expect. The mysterious Madame Eve sets up couples on supposed one time dates that end up being soulmates! And the stories are solid! Every genre you could think of to take you away from reality!
Here are a few of my favorites-
Heather Long's Always a Marine series, everyone is a hit!! Love them! Yummy men in uniform! And she really hits on issues soldiers face after returning from active duty.
Jennifer Probst's Steele Brothers series, hot and heavy Vegas Action!!
Jennifer E. Subject's Intergalactic Heat series, delicious Sci-fi reads!!
Taryn Kincaid's Sleepy Hollow series, sexy paranormal fun!!

Series
Author: Heather Long
Genre: Contemporary Romance, Interracial
Romance, Military Romance
Publisher: Decadent Publishing
Format: Ebook
Length: 90 pages \ 25000 words
Book Description:
Have you ever woken up every day
afraid of everything?
For single
mom and widow Melody Carter, six months passed since an IED ripped her life
apart. Everyone is sympathetic and offers platitudes of comfort and support.
Everyone thinks they know why she’s grieving but Melody isn’t mourning her
broken heart. She’s ashamed to be grateful her abusive husband won’t hurt her
anymore and scared for her child. Born with a mild heart defect, her daughter
needs lifesaving surgery and with her funds tight and her emotional scars
tighter, she’s running out of options. When she receives an offer for
assistance from Mike’s Place, can Melody put her faith in the men her husband
called friend?
Have you ever woken up, day after day,
to discover your body’s betrayal?
Marine
Captain, Joe Anderson Cooper, received the Silver Star for Valor when he led
his unit through heavy fire to rescue fellow Marines. Despite numerous
injuries, the Captain refused medical aid, insisting that the medics attend
others. A broken back and shattered bones put Captain Cooper in a wheelchair
and every day is a battle to keep his recovery on track and his sanity intact.
When a single mom moves in to the apartment next door to his and he recognizes
a kindred—damaged—soul, can he overcome her fear and be the man she’s always
needed?
Can these two lonely souls rise to the
challenge or will their scars trap them forever?
Also be sure to check out the rest of the Always a
Marine series!
Excerpt:
Letting
herself out of the apartment, she locked up and turned to find her neighbor
locking his door. He caught sight of her and smiled. “Good morning.” His deep
baritone hummed over her senses. She appreciated the low voiced greeting.
“Good
morning.” She wanted to say something more, but her brain locked up around the
words. He eased his wheelchair back until nearly off the sidewalk and motioned
for her to precede him. Biting her lip, she found another smile for him. “Thank
you.” Her heartbeat accelerated and sweat cooled her spine. She didn’t hug the
wall, but she couldn’t help widening the distance between them.
The wheels
made the faintest squeaking noise after she passed, and she glanced back to see
him following her down the path toward the parking lot. Maybe she should have
offered to push. He wore an olive green t-shirt and a matching pair of slacks,
though they were cut up the side of the large cast encasing his right leg from
mid-thigh to his toes.
He—Joe, he
said his name was Joe—met her gaze and gave her another easy smile. His eyes
crinkled at the corners and the dimple in his cheek deepened. The sidewalk
widened and she slowed to let him catch up.
“I’m sorry.
I’m not the best company this morning.”
“No worries,
ma’am. Little ones take a lot out of a body.” The buttery softness of his voice
washed over her like a soothing balm—like the night before when he knocked on
her door and introduced himself. He scared the hell out of her, but not in the
same breath.
I must be
tired. I have no idea what I’m feeling from one moment to the next. As if summoned by her thought,
fatigue wavered through her and she stumbled. The diaper bag swung down her
arm. She couldn’t catch it and hold the baby at the same time. Joe stopped the
bag’s arc, and gave her a chance to catch her balance.
“May I?” He
offered, still holding the bag.
May he what…? He wanted to carry the bag for
her and she winced. It was heavy and he…
“I have
plenty of room and then you don’t have to worry about it taking you off balance
again.” The sound logic quashed her natural objections. She shifted Libby
carefully and let the strap fall off her arm. Her internal alarms sounded.
Giving him the bag didn’t give him some kind of power over her, but her gut
tightened at the surrender of her possession.
He settled
the bag against his lap and nodded encouragingly. “Just point me to your car…”
“Oh, I don’t
drive. Well, I do but I’m not driving here. I’m actually just staying here for
a few weeks and I’m waiting for the shuttle.” She tacked the last on with a
grimace. “And apparently I’m as muddleheaded for real as I feel. Sorry. Thank
you. The shuttle is scheduled to pick us up here in about…” She couldn’t look
at her watch.
“Two
minutes.” The captain supplied. “I’m waiting for the same shuttle.” His warm
brown gaze turned studious. “Are you okay?”

~MY REVIEW~
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
What a fantastic read!! Ladies do not go into this one looking for steam! It is not that kind of read...until the end!! This is a touching story of two wounded people finding each other and addressing a need in each other. I like that they do not rush into anything. They feel the whole love at first sight but do not skip the meaningful getting to know you stuff! It is a nice short read, novella length, but I would not have minded a longer read with more of their story.
Nice steam at the end but that isn't really what this tale was about. A very nice addition to the Always a Marine series. A step away from the 1Night stand format of some of the other books in the series!
When is Matt going to get his love story!! I am so impatient!!
Cover Art - Sweet and sexy!! Draws you into this interracial romance!

FMB Author Promotions ~ Review for Virgin Under Ground by Kate Richards
Title: Virgin Under Ground
Series: 1Night Stand
Author: Kate Richards
Genre: Erotic Romance, Short, Contemporary
Publisher: Decadent Publishing
Format: Ebook
Length: 50 pages
Buy Links: Decadent
Publishing | Amazon
|
Book Description:
Doctorate in
hand, Jane Ann Summers is ready to return to the South
Seas paradise of her youth, when the director of the institute—her
mother—drops a bomb. She cannot return until she experiences more of life...a
social life
Determined to
waste no time, Jane searches for a shortcut and discovers the 1Night Stand
dating service. A single night with a Dr. Gerard, geologist…and she can go home
and get on with her fascinating study of world weather trends. The only
question is whether to have sex with him…after all, it would be her first and maybe only time.
Dr. Lukas
Gerard’s own field of study has shown him some alarming trends. He believes a
killer earthquake may rattle the Western half of the United States in the near future.
In preparation, he has converted an abandoned gold mine to a secret bunker,
loaded with supplies and all the comforts of home. Only thing he needs is
company in his hideaway. Unsure how to find the right companion, he turns to
1Night Stand, but neither he nor Jane are prepared for the sudden impact of one
of Madame Eve’s connections.
Maybe there
is more to life than science…for both of them.
Excerpt:
“I need to ask you something first.”
His brow furrowed, but he shrugged.
“Okay.”
“Does Madame Eve know the location of
your secret place?” Out there in the dark, with the sprinkle of stars to light
the black velvet night, the reality of proceeding blindfolded into the desert
with a stranger, no matter how attractive, seemed dangerous. If the answer was
no, she would ask him to turn the car around and hope she wasn’t already too
late.
“Yes,” he said, in a low voice. “She
insisted.” When she still clutched his arm, he smiled. “I understand caution,
let me show you something.” Lukas reached over her to the center console. So close,
his warmth and the clean scent of soap went to her head. Hang on, Jane. Even if he is the cutest guy you’ve ever met, and smells
so good.
He retrieved his cell phone and
clicked to a text message. “Look at this.”
I have
confirmed the location of your date and we can schedule your evening. I hope
you understand the safety of my clients is paramount, yours as well as Ms.
Summers. Thank you for your cooperation. M.E.
Reassured, Jane faced away from him.
“Do it, then.” She closed her eyes and tried not to flinch as the soft cloth
covered her face. It tightened and then his hands dropped to her shoulders.
“Okay?” His fingers rested on her
collarbones, inches from her breasts. Her eyes strained, but the several folds
prevented the least bit of starlight from entering.
“I can’t see a thing.” But she could
still feel his touch moving down her arms, past her short sleeves, and onto bare
skin. The desert wind soughed; her heart thumped in her ears. Hyperaware of the
man behind her, she waited to see what he would do next.

~MY REVIEW~
Holy, Hot Damn!! I love the 1Night Stand series from Decadent Publishing! They are always well written tasty little romances! Who would have thought that the premise of a blind date on night stand would really have so much heart and romance involved!!
This newest book in the set does not disappoint! I am also eager to check out the authors other works, especially the rest of the Preppers books.
Jane is a really great character and I was with her on her journey all the way!! Lukas is the hottest nerd I have read in a while!! Yummy! And the two together are a sexy weather condition all on their own!
My favorite thing about these books is that the sex almost takes second stage to the story line. It is a very clever mix of romance and erotica!

It doesn’t
take long to discover they’re each other’s one-night stand. Lucky for them,

the length constriction, just 33 pages, the romance is infinite. Once again Ms.
Holt delivered… two characters that are completed devoted to each other. --
Books Books and More Books
Excerpt:
He
walked up behind her and hesitated a moment before resting his hands on her
shoulders. When she didn’t try to shrug him off or move away, he knew she felt
the same attraction he did. Was he moving too fast? Hell, sex was the main item
on the night’s agenda, anyway. They both knew it. If she shut him down he’d be
no worse off than before.
But
she didn’t. When he brushed aside her thick mane of hair and skimmed his lips
over the soft skin of her neck, a shiver ran through her. A silent acceptance
of his touch. God, she smelled so good, like flowers and the ocean and sin. He
licked her skin lightly then nibbled on the lobe of one ear.
She
pressed back against him and he turned her to face him, studying her for a
moment then brushed his mouth over hers. Her lips were lush and full and
tempting, with the feel of soft velvet. Tracing the seam of them with the tip
of his tongue, he urged her to open for him and thrust inside her.
Jesus!
Her mouth was
hot and liquid, her tongue dancing like a live wire. He moved his hands up and
down her back, feeling the heat of her through the fabric of the dress. She
gripped his biceps with her fingers and when she pressed her lower body against
his, every nerve in his body fired. He wanted to go slow, take it easy. Give
her the chance to get used to him. They’d barely gotten to know each other. But
his body and brain were engaged in a fierce battle for control.
About the Author:
