Snippet from ‘Lovely Rita’

August 14, 2014 by Harper Bliss Leave a Comment

Can't Get Enough

As promised last week, here’s a teaser from my story ‘Lovely Rita’ which appears in Tenille Brown’s Can’t Get Enough. The looks of the Rita from the title are based on those of a real life famous-person Rita (but not Rita Mae Brown ;-p), but really, you’d need to read the story to (possibly) guess who. 😉

As a reminder, here’s the blurb for Can’t Get Enough:

Picking up where Gotta Have It left off, Can’t Get Enough captures the passion and intensity of quickies and nooners: those delicious times when the urge to merge takes over. Veteran erotica author and first-time editor Tenille Brown has collected stories for Can’t Get Enough that highlight the essence of insatiable desire. With contributions from familiar names like Rachel Kramer Bussel, Jacqueline Applebee and Giselle Renarde, along with newer faces like Monica Corwin and Beatrix Ellroy, this is a book full of diverse and dynamic characters who are bold and daring. The authors here knock the theme of Can’t Get Enough right out of the park with stories that will leave readers as breathless as the characters they’re reading about, dying for more.

And here’s my teaser snippet:

Sweat trickled down my temples as I danced for the first time in months. I didn’t care if Rita showed up. I boogied myself into a state of indifference I’d been craving for weeks. Pushing my arms above my head, I relished the predatory looks my exposed belly button received. Being declared too monogamous for Rita’s standards didn’t spoil me for this crowd. Just because I wasn’t one for sharing loved ones, didn’t mean I couldn’t enjoy the thrill of a one-night stand.

A girl dressed in black leather pants and not much else swayed closer to me. I’d been working on my abs tirelessly since Rita left me, and now they were working for me. She pressed her hips into my behind and left them there, finding the rhythm with me. I guess you could call it dancing.

“Want a beer?” she yelled into my ear over the thundering bass.

I spun around to get a good look at her face. Hair tied back in a loose ponytail, some curls springing free. Intense black eyes and no makeup on her face. Zero resemblance to Rita.

“Yes, please.” I shot her a smile. I was out of practice and fairly certain the sexy grin I was aiming for looked more like an insecure smirk, but she nodded and headed for the bar. I exhaled and brushed a strand of hair away from my forehead.

That’s when I saw her.

Important note: It should be quite clear from the pair of men’s legs on the cover, but Can’t Get Enough is NOT a lesbian erotica anthology (although quite a few stories explore the delights of lady loving, including mine, of course.)

You can buy Can’t Get Enough from Cleis, Amazon and everywhere else you like to shop for smut.

Q&A: Tenille Brown on Can’t Get Enough

August 8, 2014 by Harper Bliss Leave a Comment

Can't Get EnoughOne is not really an established erotica writer until one has a short story published in a Cleis Press anthology (no one’s rules, but my own), therefore I’m extremely thrilled that Tenille Brown accepted my story ‘Lovely Rita’ to grace the pages (amidst a slew of fellow established erotica authors) of her new book Can’t Get Enough. I feel as though I have arrived somewhere special. Thank you, Tenille! 😉 I’ve invited Tenille to answer my usual high-brow Q&A questions and tell us a bit more about her new anthology. (I’ll post an excerpt of my own story next week.) Take it away, Tenille!

1. Sell us your book in one sentence.
Can’t Get Enough is a literary buffet of carnal delights.

2. Favourite line (or paragraph) from ‘Can’t Get Enough’.
Hands down, it’s from Tamsin Flowers’ story, and it’s:

It’s those damned cobbles. They get me everytime.

3. Last book that blew you away?
It had to be Glorious by Bernice L. McFadden, but
 she blows me away every single time.

4. Which celebrity is at number one of your imaginary to-do list?
*coughs* Lenny Kravitz

5. What’s your favourite sexy song?
Adore by Prince. I get all tingly every single time I hear it.

6. What are you most proud of?
I am most proud of achieving the current balance I have in my life, being there for my family, and following my life’s passion and purpose – writing.

7. Who’s your favourite TV Character?
It’s a toss up between Lafayette from True Blood and Sheldon Cooper from The Big Bang Theory.

8. Which author’s books are a must-read?
Bernice L. McFadden, Alison Tyler, Fiona Zedde, Wally Lamb, Eric Jerome Dickey, Tiffany Reisz
 I could go on and on, lol.

9. Anything else you want us to know?
I’m pleasantly surprised at how well Can’t Get Enough is doing. I can’t thank everyone for supporting me and my first collection.

10. What’s next for you?
I have a few stories coming out in a few collections. I am working on a full length project and working on pitches for more anthologies and the rest, I’ll leave to the universe.

How to get off cheaper

August 5, 2013 by Harper Bliss Leave a Comment

If you like my stories and you want to read all (thank you!) or at least a few of them, there are deals to be done. These are not summer deals or special deals, but stories permanently packed together to give you better value for money. I also want to clearly point out which of my titles do not contain new stories, as my aim for my readers is always full satisfaction and I wouldn’t want any of you to feel frustrated after buying one of my books!

The product pages for my books also always clearly state which stories are contained in that specific title, but I understand that in a frenzied status this can be easily missed. 😉

So, without further ado, here’s a list of my omnibi (granted, this blog post is really just an excuse to use that word.)

A Hotter State1. A Hotter State (Yes, this is also the name of Ladylit’s new imprint!)

Contains
– Hired Help (single price: $2.99)
– The Honeymoon (single price: $2.99)
– Learning Curve (single price: $2.99)
– New Girl (Free short story)

Omnibus price: $4.99

Money to be saved: $3.98

—————————————-

Endless Summer2. Endless Summer

Contains
– Summer Heat (single price: $1.99)
– Younger Than Yesterday (single price: $1.99)

Omnibus price: $2.99

Money to be saved: $0.99

—————————————-

Can't Get Enough3. Can’t Get Enough

Contains
– A Hotter State (single price: $4.99)
– Endless Summer (single price: $2.99)

Omnibus price: $6.99

Money to be saved: $0.99 (or $4.97 if you count all the single prices)

—————————————-

High Rise (The Complete Collection)4. High Rise (The Complete Collection)

Contains
– Fool for Love (Free)
– Undisclosed Desires (single price: $2.99)
– No Ordinary Love (single price: $2.99)

—————————————-

Girls Only Volume Two5. Girls Only Volume Two

Contains

– Fair & Square (single price: $0.99)
– Personal Training (single price: $0.99)

Omnibus price: $2.99

Money to be saved: $0.97

When you count all of that together, that makes $8.91. I just thought you should know.

P.S. Of course, a very special, enormously warm THANK YOU goes out to my loyal readers who buy my single titles as they are released. I ♄ you!

Say that you love me...

Erotica and Valentine’s Day go well together. It’s a simple fact. So, because the big day of romance is coming up soon, I decided to hold a contest. It’s a you-give-me-love and I-give-you-love kind of deal (like it ought to be) and it goes like this:

1. Like my Facebook page (aka love me)

2. Win a signed paperback copy of Can’t Get Enough (aka I send you a book full of dirty love)

Can't Get Enough

I’ll be giving away two copies and I’ll ship them anywhere in the world. I’ll even write something naughty next to my autograph, if you like that sort of thing. 😉

One copy will go to one of the super kind people who’ve already liked me on Facebook (thank you so much!) The other will go to anyone who likes my page between today (5 February) and Valentine’s Day.

Happy liking! 😉
