Hot Sex in a Secret BDSM Club! Yikes!

BAM5LOLThe Le Club Series

I just got back from the barn this afternoon where I relaxed and enjoyed my daughter and grandsons, the horses, some friends and a wonderful afternoon. It’s true:  There is something about the outside of a horse that is good for the inside of a person!  If you love horses, try my Le Club series set in beautiful Ocala, Florida, the Horse Capital of the World (or so they say – but really it’s true).

The Le Club series is set against a secret BDSM club in beautiful downtown historic Ocala. Unlikely you say!  Well…maybe.  But the stories are good, the sex is hot, and the heroes are handsome and rich – and then I throw in the horses.  These stories will take you all the way to the Triple Crown, so if you like horses, hot sex and good stories, give them a try.  What could be better?

Blurb~ [Siren Classic ManLove: Erotic Alternative Paranormal Consensual BDSM Romance, M/M, vampires, shape-shifters, spanking, sex toys, HEA]

Diablo loves his ranch, his horses, and the men he works with. He also has certain proclivities which the C & L Ranch caters to. Diablo is a Dominant and a one hundred and fifty year old vampire who desperately desires a mate and permanent sub.

Newly graduated from Veterinary School, Kristoph Karlisle answers the Vet Needed ad for the C & L Ranch. The little coquí shifter is better suited for the warmer climate and eagerly heads south towards a new job—and his fated mate.

Diablo hopes his mate is as open-minded as the other residents of the C & L Ranch, where hog tying takes on a whole new meaning.

A Siren Erotic Romance

  

STORY EXCERPT

Kristoph’s heart skipped a full beat or maybe two and the sweat trickled down his back at the bomb just dropped on his lap. The polo shirt began to stick to him and he hoped his deodorant did the job. Diablo Rivera-Calderon was an imposing figure of a man. Sexy, wore a pair of jeans as if they’d been painted on, Kristoph’s new boss, and oh yeah—his mate. Never did Kristoph think he’d move hours away from his current home not only for a job but also to find his mate—life mate as Diablo called him. Coquíes did not necessarily mate for life nor believe in life mates. They knew mates existed and from the moment Kristoph laid eyes on Diablo his scent called to him and he knew the attraction strong, but a life mate?

Usually coquí unions were arranged by the parents or some older relative for the sake of procreation and keeping their shifter population thriving. They rarely mated outside the species. Kristoph’s parents were a perfect example. Their marriage had been arranges and they brought six children into the world. Unlike their animal counterpart which laid up to twenty five eggs per year, the shifter coquí usually had a child every year and a half. Kristoph sometimes wondered if they only stayed together out of habit, and because it was expected He certainly didn’t think they loved each other and when they tried to arrange a marriage for him, Kristoph left his island home of Puerto Rico for the sunnier pastures of Florida. Unfortunately, or maybe fortunately, a scholarship from the University of Pennsylvania to study paid off in more than one way. The weather may not have been what he’d originally sought, but now relocating to Virginia…

Confused, Kristoph wondered if all the ramblings of his parents about survival and procreation was just their way to keep him in line, especially once he told them he was gay. They were appalled and screamed it was his duty to marry a nice coquí-shifter girl and keep the species thriving. Once his parents informed him they had an arranged marriage for him, Kristoph left and never looked back. Lies. Everything they told him—lies.

“I don’t know if I believe in life mates.” Kristoph had a hard time looking Diablo in the eyes. He already didn’t want to disappoint his mate. “My parents always told me coquíes married for procreation, rarely love. We only bred with each other.”

Cariño, I can’t speak for your parents, but I can sure as hell tell you with one hundred percent assuredness, you are my mate. A vampire’s nose is never wrong, nor hearing, and you smell like sunshine and sea salt.” Kristoph kept his eyes transfixed on their joined hands and the slight caress of Diablo’s finger on his wrist.

“But what if you’re wrong and I’m not the man for you. Are you even gay?” whispered Kristoph.

Slight pressure on his chin forced his face up, and he peered into Diablo’s eyes. Kristoph saw Diablo’s dark pupils dilate with conflicting emotion, understanding and lust. Kristoph inhaled before speaking again. “Are you? Gay?”

“Yes, I am, but even if I wasn’t, a mate is a mate. And we never forsake a mate. Do you understand what I’m saying?” Kristoph timidly shrugged his shoulder at Diablo’s words. “You are it for me, Dr. Kristoph Karlisle. My life mate. And no matter how long it takes, I will prove myself to you.”

Kristoph watched the man’s plump lips as he spoke. A shudder passed through Kristoph’s body at the inflection in Diablo’s voice. The man was determined to convince him of his sincerity and tenacity of their mating. A surge of pride flowed in Kristoph, knowing someone thought him so important. Kristoph licked his lips, his throat dry like the Sahara as he swallowed. He needed a drink of the lemonade but he feared moving, not wanting to break the spell.

I Am Often Asked What I Like to Read – Sexy or Nice?

BAM5LOL

As the author of thirty romance novels, people often ask me what I like to read. I like to read Regency romances, historicals and mainstream romance since I do not write them myself.  And of course I love to read my fellow writers’ sexy erotica.

Also I actually do enjoy going back and re-reading my own books. It feels like I’m reading someone else’s story.   It also helps keep details straight for what I am currently writing as I often bring back past characters for a visit. Sometimes I need to get out of my own head for a while.  LOL.  It gets pretty crowded and noisy in there when all my characters decide to visit and chat at one time!

I particularly enjoy my friends at Siren/Bookstrand Publishing like Bellann Summer, Cooper McKenzie, Kelsie Belle and Mardi Maxwell.  In mainstream I enjoy the Rock Chick series by Kristen Ashley and the Mystic Cove series by Tricia O’Malley.  And of course, Janet Evanovich’s Stephanie Plum series is always good for a laugh.  There are so many good writers out  there.

If you have never thought to try erotica, give it a shot.  My books are naughty, sexy, and fun, but never nasty.  It can’t be all about the sex, although there is plenty of that (LOL).  I always say, “If you don’t have a good story, you don’t have a book.”

It baffles me when someone says, “Oh I don’t like to read.” How can that possibly be?  There is something out there for everyone.  I hope you all enjoy my books and leave a review.

Happy reading!

Skye

Why Did I Choose the BDSM Genre?

Why did I choose the BDSM genre?  Well, mainstream romance is a very crowded field.  It seems that thousands of new books come out weekly.  Frankly, I enjoyed the drama and sexiness of the BDSM stories I originally read and wanted to see if I could write one of my own.  I was amazed at how the words flowed.  Since then I have studied this interesting subculture, gone to several BDSM writers’ conventions, watched live demonstrations, and read extensively.  There is still a lot to learn.  These books are fiction, and before trying any of the activities depicted, you should study the literature available.  As always, Safe, Sane and Consensual rules.

 

Why did I start my latest series, The Wilton Park Grand Hotel Series, which is Male/male BDSM – Manlove?  Well, why not?  I wanted to branch out in my storytelling.  I wondered if a hetero woman could write those stories and decided with great trepidation to give the first one a try.  One of my fellow Siren writers, Bellann Summer, gave me a lot of help and pointers and read my first M/m manuscript (Alex’s Sacrifice) for which I am very grateful.  I was delighted to find I had no problem writing in this genre.   People are people, love is love, sex is sex (except for the mechanical differences, LOL), and relationships are relationships.  As always, despite the hot sex, you have to have a good story.  I hope you will give one of these a try even if you never thought they would be for you.  They may give you a different perspective on alternative lifestyles.   One of my gay friends paid me the best compliment.  We were talking about my latest M/m book at his hair salon (which appears in Ricky’s Dilemma), and he turned to a friend of his and said “She gets us!  She really gets us.”  I was thrilled.

 

Another thrill was when a reader told a friend of mine who had introduced her to my books to thank me for writing them, that they had helped revitalize her twenty-year marriage that had gotten stale.  Now she and her husband are texting and hurrying home from work.  What a thrill –to know you made a difference in someone’s life.  And they say it’s just “romance.”

Background History of Some of My Books

I thought I would talk about some of the background of several of my favorite books.  I started The Appearance of Impropriety Skye-Michaels-erotic-books-sex-skye michaels books-BDSM-improprietyover twenty years ago while I was still working.  Unfortunately, life got in the way when both of my parents got sick and passed away.  I put the book aside as I didn’t have the heart to keep working on it.

 

After I had started the erotic books and was between books looking for a new project, I pulled Appearance out of mothballs.  Yikes!  How much had changed in twenty or so years.  Since the background of the story is technological in nature, I had to sit down with my daughter, Jennifer, the Queen of Technology, and get an update on how email worked, etc.  Then I had to completely update the manuscript and then finish it.  It was like opening a time capsule and a lot of fun to work on.

 

Much of the background information on life in Puerto Rico as depicted in erotic bdsm romance skye michaelsGabriella’s Prosecution comes from my ex-husband’s family background – except for the part about them being Medieval  Spanish Sadists!  If he only knew!  This material has been edited for  fictional purposes of course.

 

Another of my favorites, Jinxx’s Big BDSM Adventure, came out of a personal experience of my own with a romance that started on Facebook.  While it is not an exact depiction of events and the names have been changed to protect the guilty, most of the texts and emails in the book came from my own experience.  LOL – BDSM-erotic-sexThe romance may not have worked out, but at least I got a book out of it.

 

All characters are fictional and bear no relation to persons living or dead – or whatever that disclaimer is!  I have to say I have never had so much fun in my life.  You have probably seen the meme, “Be nice to me or you may find yourself murdered in my next book.”  Well….

 

I also love to put animal characters in my books and to memorialize their names for posterity.  My horses, Shadow and Ollie, have made appearances as well as my dog, Snickerdoodles, a/k/a The Dude.  One reader said she had learned more about horses than she ever expected to know reading my books.  I hope you enjoy that.  A great sexy book is more than sex.  You have a good story or you don’t have a book.  I hope I can continue writing good, sexy stories.

Welcome To My Website ~ SkyeMichaelsBooks.com

Hello readers, friends and relatives!  I can’t believe I now have my own website and blog.  Who wouldathunkit?  I’m so very excited to share this beautiful website created by Jennifer Hicks Money of Franklin, Tennessee with everyone.  Jennifer can be reached on my contact me page – just send her a note through the comments section.

As you may know from reading my bio, I started writing after I lost my day job as a paralegal.  I had dreamed of writing romance as far back as high school when we all devoured the bodice ripper romances like potato chips!  Remember Fabio on those covers?

When I lost my job in 2010 I started temping in Miami, Florida and taking the express bus to downtown from Fort Lauderdale – a real ordeal.  My daughter bought me a Kindle for my birthday in 2011 to ease the trip, and I was amazed by what was out there in ebooks.  Who knew?  I downloaded a couple of the free erotic books and loved them.   So I read many, many more.

How do you learn this skill?  There is no Naughty Books 101 course at the local college.  I read so many I thought my eyes would bleed.  How far do they go?  What words do they use?  How do they advance the plot?  I learned a great deal from my favorite writers in the genre and would like to thank them all for the education.  I decided that if I could write legal documents for thirty years, I could write naughty romance novels.  So, I did.

I wrote my first book in seven teen days Cover Picture skm-lc-calleigh-full (2) (Calleigh’s Collar which was the shortest) and immediately started a second one (Kelly’s Challenge).  In the meantime I had my friends and family read the first one to see what they thought.  They loved it (after a few raised eyebrows and “where did this come from” questions) so I started to compile a list of publishers of that type of material.  As it turned out, the list was unnecessary as my first two stories were accepted by the publisher of my favorite authors, Siren Publishing, within three weeks.  My first book was published in January of 2012.   I was ecstatic.  Cover Book 2 - Kelly (2)I am sure you did not know that strange howling noise you heard was me getting the email accepting my manuscripts for publication.  You may have noticed the strange sound again when I got my first cover for Calleigh’s Collar!

 

It’s been an amazing journey of excitement and learning.  The Siren editors have been great and another wonderful source of education.  I had no idea what Point of View or Head Hopping was – even after it was carefully explained!  Finally, I learned to write for those points to avoid the huge editing changes.  The editors were encouraging and patient, and we got through those first few manuscripts.  I also had a lot of help from my friend, Pat Walker, who was my original beta reader and editor.  And now I have thirty published books out there in the universe and am working on number thirty-one.  There are currently five Male/female and one Male/male series.  The excitement continues, and I hope you will all join me on this continuing adventure.
