After the success of A Christmas Favour (out from Total E-bound) as a contemporary romance that “I” wrote, I wanted to keep digging into my softer side. I’d spent considerable time writing BDSM romance and enjoying it but writers have to write what they feel, and sometimes I just wanted to do something hotter yet different and still come across as sweet.
Hence, Caressing Caitlyn. A 5,000 word short story from Sizzler Editions based on someone very dear to my heart. I wanted to write something like what I’d been reading at the time when I was going through my small but ever growing Harlequin BLAZE collection and reading Janelle Denison, Julie Leto and others like them.

Congrats on the new release… I look forward to reading this story…
The cover is simple and sensual, I like it. As far as you being sweet? Really? Kidding you. The girl you wrote that story for is a lucky one! Can’t wait to read.
Thank you 🙂 I’m dedicating this week to this release 🙂
This was a complex story in spite of it’s brevity. I enjoyed it a lot. Thanks for the shout out, Sascha.
I thought about turning this into something larger but I really can’t stay into the contemporary setting too long. I can’t play hard in that world as I’d like to.
You’d barely begun it, IMO. Challenge yourself the next time you need a break from the usual. I’m unplugging after these 2 erotica pieces and writing a sensual…tuning back into the romance instead of the urgent, rock your world scenes. I really wanted to know what happened next with Caitlyn. And as you’re always telling me, 30k isn’t that much…
No but I’m not doing contemporary for awhile at least. I might have one with the menage i’m working on for Total E-bound towards the end of hte year but we’ll see.
Funny how the year is mapped out in books for us. You’ll write it when you’re moved to it. I know it’s inside you. Now could you help me out with this complicated m/m bondage scene I’m writing? LOL
I did. I made you take my class.
Yeah the year is and has always been mapped out with books to be written for me and many authors I think.
Naw, Hales suggested it would be more fun than a spitball fight during a movie. It was. We met then. And I’m glad.
