Christmas Traditions

I love this time of year—the music, the colored lights, the tree, the holiday movies and the excitement. Like most families, we have various traditions that have changed or evolved over the years. But one tradition that never changes is my mother’s fruit cake.

Yes, I said it. Fruit cake. We’re big on this holiday staple in my family and all of us would feel slighted if our mother didn’t make us one of her amazing cakes. Heck, when I was a kid, I used to ask for one for my birthday every year. Mom would make a fruit cake for the family celebration and a chocolate one for the party with my friends. I don’t know what makes hers so special. Maybe it’s the rum, maybe it’s the love. All I know is Christmas wouldn’t be the same without it.

Another tradition is chocolate fudge, but not just any fudge. I use the same recipe my mother used when I was a kid. It’s fast and delicious.


Five Minute Fudge (From the Carnation Milk Cookbook)

2/3 cup of Carnation milk
1 2/3 cups of sugar

~Bring sugar and milk to a boil and boil on low heat for 5 minutes. Stir constantly. Remove from heat.

Add:
1 ½ cups chocolate chips (I use semi-sweet dark chips)
1 ½ cups of plain mini marshmallows (I use Kraft minis)
1 tsp of vanilla flavouring

Stir until smooth and pour into greased 8” X 8” pan.

Cool and cut into squares.



And if you’re looking for a calorie-free treat to help get you through the season, be sure to pre-order Naughty Heroes now for only 99-cents. Price will go up soon after it releases.




NAUGHTY HEROES: In And Out Of Uniform A collection of UNFORGETTABLE HEROES

MARINE ON A MISSION 
N.J. Walters 

When Mitch McCoy left rural Kentucky to join the U.S. Marines he never thought he'd return. Now he's undercover with a state drug task force. He's not only facing his past, but also Sara Hawkins, the woman who broke his heart. This investigation will risk their lives and their hearts. 

 SEX BOMB 
Nicole Austin  

From first sight I knew Marine Lieutenant Harlie Savage wasn't fragile like a flower—she was fragile like a bomb. Definitely not some princess who needed to be saved, either. She was a queen who only lacked a sword, and I vowed to be her weapon. 

HER SOLDIER OF FORTUNE 
Belle Scarlett 


Leia has no idea who ex-Marine Major Tate McIntyre is when he saves her life in a dark alley. Yet Tate's certain Leia is his to have, hold, and protect. He vows to keep her safe at any cost. His only price is her heart. Semper Fi! 

THE NIGHT WATCHMAN
Katherine Kingston

A disabled vet rescues a woman on a mission to collect evidence, saving her from the men chasing her. As Jace and Shannon race to survive and outwit a traitor, a deep connection grows between them. But staying alive long enough to explore the attraction will take everything they've got.

MILITARY BLUES
Elizabeth Lapthorne

Luke is struggling to recover from a career shattering IED blast that sees him permanently discharged. Milly's career self-destructed and she's moved cities in the hopes of starting again. Can this new life and new relationship be a second chance for them both?




N.J. Walters is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author who has always been a voracious reader, and now she spends her days writing novels of her own. Vampires, werewolves, dragons, time-travelers, seductive handymen, and next-door neighbors with smoldering good looks—all vie for her attention. It’s a tough life, but someone’s got to live it.

For those who love bundles...

I just released the second volume of my Ashwood Falls series. The third volume will release at the beginning of August.

Ashwood Falls Volume Two

Includes: Surrendering to the Alpha, A Rebel’s Heart, and Divided Loyalties



Surrendering to the Alpha
Ashwood Falls book 3

Ashwood Falls’ leopard Alpha, Keegan Andrews holds onto the pain of his deceased mate as his own personal hell—a reminder that not all things are what they seem. The Pack Scribe, Addyson Lewis is no exception. She’s intrigued him like no other since the day she stumbled into Ashwood territory about twenty-five years ago. When he discovers that just being near her calms the storm inside him, he can’t stay away even if it means exposing her to the evil she tried to escape.


A Rebel’s Heart
Ashwood Falls book 3.5

Widow and mother of five full-grown males, Sarah Matthews lives the best she can—one day at a time. Now that her babies are having babies, she relishes in spoiling her grandkids. But her inner mountain lion is restless and Sarah can’t shake the feeling something is lurking in the woods surrounding her home. The unease becomes a reality when a man she thought died with her mate five years ago comes back into her life with trouble on his heels.


Divided Loyalties
Ashwood Falls book 4

Hayden Raines has always followed the rules. As the Ashwood Fall wolf Marshal, he has to set the example for those working under him. When he sets his sights on the beautiful human hunter things go downhill, fast. Fate has a funny way of turning things inside out—because the woman he kidnaps, the enemy he might need to protect his family from, just happens to be his mate.

Teasers from Spring Fever: Shifters in Love anthology


Thaw winter's chill with FIVE brand new stories about SEXY, alpha male shifters with spring fever.

Milly Taiden, Vella Day, Kerry Adrienne, Andie Devaux, and Lia Davis bring you 5 shifter stories bundled together for only $0.99 for limited time.

Here is a teaser from each story.

Match Made in Hell (A BBW paranormal romance) by New York Times and USA Today Bestselling author, Milly Taiden

She hurried down the hall where she’d seen the warrior turn a corner. Breaths froze in her chest when she saw him tear off the towel around his waist, showing a perfect muscled ass. Well, damn it all to hell she could not unsee that no matter how much she tried. Not that her brain would let her. That visual went straight into the gonna-dream-with-later file.


An Unexpected Diversion by Vella Day

“Enough,” Storm groaned. “I need some lick time, too.”
Chey stood and let Storm divest her of the rest of her clothes. As soon as he exposed her black panties, he whistled. “You can’t fool me. You did come here hoping we’d make love.”
Chey wasn’t even thinking along those lines. “I wore black because my pussy was in mourning.”
            He chuckled. “Not for long.”


Waking the Bear by Kerry Adrienne

“You feel it, too, don’t you?” His voice had lowered a full register and the deep baritone vibrated through the air.
“What?” Her heart pounded.
“The attraction between us. The need to be close to each other. Not just a desire, but a need.”

Quote for Twitter:

“Don’t be shy,” he said. “It’s all for you.”


Prime Desire by Andie Devaux

Familiar green eyes met hers.
Nicolas.
Her jaw dropped and she couldn’t manage to do anything but stare.
Nicolas didn’t have the same reaction. His mouth twisted into a familiar grin.
Holy shit. He’d been expecting her.
“Hey, city girl.” He approached her slowly, as if she might run.
She couldn't blame him—it wouldn't be the first time she ran from him. But this time, she wouldn’t be doing a weird walk of shame down a mountain.


Bear Essentials (A BBW paranormal romance) by Lia Davis

He was huge and intense. It was the only way Nichole could describe Trey. He was also sculpted to please women with his large arms, hands, thighs, and… other things hidden from view. However, his take-charge attitude told her he wasn’t used to being told no. With a body like his, she didn’t think he heard the word too often.

Katie doesn’t want another man. She certainly doesn’t want or need confirmation that it’s her fault Mark could never satisfy her.

When Sebastian—scarred by the infidelity of his wife—overhears Katie’s confession, and the fact that she was faithful to her husband for ten years even though he never met her needs, he’s intrigued. More than intrigued. He’s determined to prove to this gorgeous, tempting, fascinating woman that she is not frigid. In fact, she is fierce.


A Snippet from Fierce:

“Do you-do you find men attractive?”
She shrugged.
“Do you find me attractive?”
Her focus snapped back to him. Sebastian. With his deep emerald eyes. The little prickles of an insistent day beard sprouting on his chin. The delicious curve of his jaw.
“Yes.” Yes. She found him attractive. More so than any man she’d ever met.
It scared her to death.
“I find you attractive, too, Katie. Very attractive. But I don’t want to ask you to do anything that makes you uncomfortable.”
Oh. There it was.
He was ending it.
A lump settled in her belly.
It was for the best. Really it was—
“So let’s take this slow, shall we?”
She gaped at him. “S-slow?”
He smiled and it warmed her heart.
Oh wait. It was his palm, skating across her shoulder, down her arm, cupping her breast. That was what warmed her.
“Stop me if this makes you uncomfortable.”
Oh, it made her uncomfortable. Sent sharp tingles along every nerve. Made her body start to soften and swell. Made her womb quiver.
But she wasn’t stopping him. No way.

Kate Hill: Why Do I Write What I Write? What Are Your Creative Outlets?

Writers are often asked where they get their ideas and why they write the kind of stories they write. I’ve always said that story ideas can come from just about anywhere--a person, a place or even an object.

The answer to why do I write what I write is a bit more specific. While I have written a variety of heroes, I definitely lean toward flawed characters with something devastating or even sinister in their past. I strongly prefer antiheroes or reformed villains and I love stories with a lot of action, drama and angst. My favorite moments are often scenes of comfort, when the man or woman who is always the proverbial island realizes they want and need support and affection.

I originally started writing romances because for me there was never enough blood, guts and angst in most of the romance books I read in the past (nowadays there is thankfully more variety in the romance genre). Many times for me the heroes simply weren’t dark enough. As the kind of person who often goes to the movies and roots for the villain instead of the hero, it’s needless to say I’m usually disappointed when my favorite characters are either killed off or don’t get a chance to grow simply because it’s not their story.

The reason I write the kind of stories I write is because they’re what I want to read. I want the complex villain or the antihero who walks the line between good and evil to get his or her shot at redemption. I enjoy stories with lots of danger and turmoil, but when it’s all over, the characters get a happily ever after.

Corny? Maybe.

Dramatic? Definitely.

But it’s what I enjoy and I hope that other readers who like the same type of stories will find pleasure in mine as well.

What kind of stories do you enjoy and do you write what you love, whether published or for your own pleasure? If you don’t write, what is your outlet for the kind of stories you love but can’t always find? Do you express your fantasies through art, music or something else?

Alpha Delicious
by Kate Hill
(Box Set)

On Amazurn, a man's place is in the home. Barefoot, bare-chested, with a baby in one hand and a dishtowel in the other. Dominant males are banished to the Alpha Islands where women lusting after rare alphas indulge in sexual fantasies and gladiatorial sports. Cultures collide when two Earth women unexpectedly find themselves on Alpha Island and are rescued by handsome twin gladiators, Rock and Iron. At the same time, Amazurnian scientists Passioniera and Seductress are transported to Earth where they meet twin MMA fighters Ben and Cole.

Passion ignites when top gladiator Maximus meets Desirious, a former harem boy, in combat. The one-time adversaries unite under the strict hand of Max's wife and trainer, Lace.

Undercover reporter Silky falls in love with sexy former gladiator Shawn-Dan Dawn who is imprisoned at the royal palace of Amazurn.

These powerful women and their sexy alpha mates must choose between logic and love.

This Box Set contains the previously released novellas Puppies Bite, Rock and a Hard Place, Kittens Scratch, Maximum Desire, and Silky's Master.
