Literary Jane?

I call myself the Literary Jane of Erotica.

You see, my interests vary. If I get an idea that I think will make an interesting story and my brain starts to run with it, I write it. I suppose what ties my pieces together is that there will be some sexual heat or content in the mix. So, the idea is that when it comes to writing erotica, I'm a "jack of all trades"...BUT, I wouldn't say I'm a "master of none." While I'm not perfect, I'm not bad. Sex or not, you'll get a story when you read my work.

So, I don't think "jack of all trades, master of none." No, it's more like, "Literary Jane of Erotica, mistress of many genres."

Sure, I have a lot more writing to do. There's plenty of genres I haven't tried (mostly because the story idea hasn't come to me...let me just say if the stars align, I can't wait to write some Steampunk), but when you consider my body of work thus far, I think you'd agree I can't be contained in one box.

My hot, historical romance, "Of Bondage and Freedom," is about a young slave named Curly who is torn between her love for the new slave on the plantation, Gus, and the unspeakable acts her master makes her do.

My steamy, multicultural, interracial romance, "Heart like a Tumbled Stone," is about a tough, mercenary chick from Trenton, New Jersey who has to protect the heir of a prominent, Kuwaiti family. The danger and close quarters brings out the passion.

My out-of-this-world, erotic sci-fi story, "Inner Sanctum," is about a thrifty stripper who buys a spaceship to leave the planet during the mass exodus before the meteor destroys Earth. (She gives new meaning to "cock pit" lol.)

My, "the best way to get over a guy is to get under another one" piece, "Trigger," is a flashback of all the erotic ways Dulaney replaced the memories of her cheating ex with his best friend; while she debates shooting her ex for the pain he'd caused.

And my erotic vampire story, "Thick Blood," that pairs a menstruating, plus-size diva with a menstrual blood thirsty vampire. (And yes, I'm currently writing "Thick Blood 2" for your blood lust this Halloween!)

The above are e-singles, or short stories available as e-books, depending on what you'd like to call them. They're available on Amazon for 99 cents each and also on Kindle Unlimited. 

Of course, I have urban lit in longer forms!

Bubbly, with a Kick is an urban twist on Charlie's Angels that was a salute to Charles Burgess who'd first published "Trigger" in his Chocolate Rose 2 anthology. It's about an ex-cop with anger management issues being scooped up by a very special agency for some very special missions. In this mission, she (codename Champayne because she's bubbly like champagne but loves to inflict pain on bad guys) must get evidence that a dirty cop is raping and beating hookers. This novella is available on Amazon for $1.99.

Find a Penny, brings you Crimson Green, a budding fashion designer who celebrates her big break by going to the club with her hilarious, best friend. There, she meets the ever sexy gentleman, Isaac, and soon finds herself in the headlines for all the wrong reasons. Isaac's ex-girlfriend, Penny Preston, goes missing and all fingers point to Isaac. Sexy detective, Nate Richardson, wants to know if Crimson was involved even though it's very clear that to him, she's wanted for a lot more than a mugshot. Get this page-turner on Amazon for $2.99.
