"Tarik is a wounded hero, battling with the betrayal of friends and family and his struggle to control the beast within him will bring you to tears. "
Megan, Erotic Escapades

I brought a reviewer to tears. I'm elated!

BTW, for those who've been wondering when you'd be getting the next installment of Animal Urges, I'm working on book three now. KISS OF THE BEAST features a conflicted bisexual hero (and no, I don't think I'll give you any hints yet). I'm *really* working hard to make this story emotionally satisfying, while continuing the edge-of-your-seat plotline.

For those who don't know, the paperback, ANIMAL URGES, contains the first two ebooks in the series, MARK OF THE BEAST and TOUCH OF THE BEAST.

Lately, I've been on a real reading kick. Loving it. Maybe it's the cold weather (or the end of the season for both The Bachelor and Dancing with the Stars), but more often than not you can find me curled up on the couch devouring a book.

The funny thing is, I'm sort of ping-ponging between contemporary YA series about rich kids behaving badly and contemporary erotic romances about naughty alpha men. Yum and yum! I seem to have burned out on paranormals for a while.

What about you? What are you reading lately? What did you love? What did you hate?

Today I’m starting a new story. Whoo hooo! Beginning a new book is a thrilling challenge. There’s a new set of characters to meet, a new story to discover.

Every author has his or her unique system for starting a new project. But for me, I start with a title and a synopsis. Why? Because the title sets the tone for the story. And the synopsis gives me a rough framework to build upon as I write.

So what is this survey I was talking about? It’s regarding titles. Lately, it seems that cute titles like clever twists on common expressions or clichés are pretty much out... and sexy, grittier titles are all the rage.

Opinions anyone? I’d be so grateful if you’d give me examples of your favorites (or least favorites) in the comments. I need inspiration. A good title can make a HUGE difference in the success of a story.
