Monsters Burning Bright has released

12/7/2023

The third and final book in the Kings of Sorrows and Dreams series is here.

The Love of my Life is dying.

Though Val wears the body of the Nightmare King, the creature who violated me, I will not let him die.

Bloodied and bruised, I enter the halfway realm, and I drag him from the Gates of Hell, or maybe Heaven.

Yet my actions have drastic consequences. Gods, demons, a creature called Death, and even a minotaur, all want a piece of Val. Being possessed by them seems the only way to keep him powered up and alive.

To stop the Nightmare King, Val and I have joined a haphazardly formed company of soldiers, CIA, immortals and Stitched warriors.

But there is a problem I did not foresee.
There are side effects to being possessed…

Val has something inside him, and I’m afraid of what it might be.

Can I save my love again? And is it safe to go near him?

This is not a standalone romance. Book 2, Nightmare Rising, is the beginning of Val and Zara's romance. Book 1, The Bride Collector is a separate romance, but it is the start of the story of the Nightmare King.

This is a Spicy Multi-Monster Romance in an urban fantasy setting.
Tropes include: Tentacles; danger-boning; Dominant Hero; magic; I’ll burn the world down for you, flipped (she does it for him); and marking-her possessiveness.

The Bride Collector has released!

20/3/2023

This is a prequel, of sorts. It's the Book 1 to Nightmare Rising (which becomes Book 2), that I cowrote and published in 2017 with Nicolette Hugo , who then stopped writing.

I've finally decided to finish the series - it's been difficult due to her unique prose that I adored. The Bride Collector is less gritty and dark than that book, and I've added more humour too - because I can't resist the snark.

The series is now called Kings of Sorrows and Dreams.

The Bride Collector:

A mash-up of Urban Fantasy and Monster Romance
Someone—something—is hunting brides, and I need answers.

Centuries ago, monsters from our myths, fairytales, and nightmares invaded our world. To most they are invisible, but not to me.

From my elegant campervan headquarters, with my sidekick demon cat, Lump, I investigate paranormal problems.

In my search for the truth, I break into a bookshop owned by Harrow. He easily traps me, but Harrow is a Stitched soldier, given enhanced abilities for the sole purpose of killing the creatures not of our world.

Two monsters share possession of his scarred body. Drawn into their carnal maelstrom, I am taken and owned by all three.

A man caressing me, the lure of the incubus, the tentacles of a kraken – I have found a love I could never have imagined.

Yet our love may be shattered, for the hunt is still on.
The Bride Collector has another victim in his sights.
Me.

We four must destroy this immortal or die trying.

“Mysteries are solved, demons are banished, epic battles are fought and there’s still time for lots of k*nky, smutty, tentacle, incubus, and supernatural human s*x.” Goodreads reviewer.

A Smutty Christmas Sale

23/12/2022

Merry Christmas to everyone. I have a sale of my Santa with a K (Krampus). A smutty twisted Xmas tale.

🎄🎄🎄

Not all Christmas wishes go to Santa. The adult ones are redirected to the other guy: He who came before Santa.

Dear Santa,
I want a dominant man who will tie me up, do naughty things to me, and punish me until I’m good.

Now Florence has the 12 days of Christmas to prove that she really can be a good girl, if she ever wants to see her home again.

But where is she?
Can she really go home again if she's good enough?

Contains kink, MfM, and a lot of craziness. Even the reindeer harness gets a workout, and the gimp mask, the ornaments, and the two red-uniformed soldiers. So much naughtiness...

"The Xmas tree strap-on featured is on my must-buy list."

I have a new cover for His Talisman!

22/12/2022

The girl cover wasn't working as well as I'd like, so despite adoring it, I have replaced her with this man cover.

I must admit he buffed up well!

Purty man ... *purr purr*

New blurb:

HIS TASTES ARE DARK AND DEPRAVED. HIS METHODS UNIQUE.
THE DOCTOR / HULK
I have another lost girl, after I'd told myself to stop doing this.
I meant to walk away and leave her, alone in her locked room.
I couldn't resist the pretty thing -
the twitch of her rear, the curve of her lips,
the way she lies down on the table when instructed to do so.
I might keep this one.

CHARITY
I'm hurt but not broken, and now I know how steeped in evil is the CNC Fraternity. I have said yes to the doctor. I will be his toy in return for a little freedom on his island.

I have so many doubts, especially when Cassius, an ex-soldier, joins us.

They make me whimper and beg. They take me whenever and however they wish to.
And yet … I can't stop myself from wanting more.

Yes, I am falling for these cruel monsters.
But some of the lost girls from the past have gone missing.

The doctor once promised not to cut out my heart and eat it.
That macabre joke echoes in my mind.

I will find out the truth about him and this island.
I’m partial to my heart staying inside of me, while it is still beating.
Especially that last part.

Dark unearthly secrets will be brought into the light.

Secret society
Two men. One woman.

CHARITY

I’m too dangerous to be released, for my testimony could destroy the CNC Fraternity.

Until the doctor gives me another choice—to live on his private island, as his toy. Despite my fears, I say yes.

When Cassius, an ex-soldier, arrives, the doctor invites him into the relationship. Although Cassius hints at terrible secrets, I am soon enraptured.

I can accept my craving for pain and brutality, but am I falling for bad men?

I have begun to explore the island to discover the truth.

Dark unearthly secrets will be brought into the light.

The release of Vedrock, Book 3 in the Ravaged series

6/7/2022

I missed posting about the release of Alien Owned but never mind, here is Book 3 in that series - Vedrock.

Torturing Jinx Shade is normal, by my rules.

Injecting her with an illegal gene-ripper, just to make her grow that cute tail and those ears?
That was a mistake.

My claws unsheathe at the sight of this deliciously slinky female.
The OV compulsion has morphed our need to destroy each other into an irresistible pulsating knot.
When I’m forced to flee, I take her with me.

Our path across this planet is filled with ruined cities, treachery, assassins, and Jinx’s luscious rear.
As I follow that rear, I contemplate serenity, and whether I will need implements to train her.

★ ★ ★ ★

JINX: I hate him, I hate him a LOT.
Until I understand why he does what he does, and then I almost like him. Our attraction evolves and becomes more than desire.

If only there wasn’t this problem … I may have been programmed to make him dead.

Can true love flourish in the aftermath of the destruction that is unleashed?
Probably not.

Warning: Contains a villain who discovers he has a heart (though he still likes to knead throats with his claws); steamy naughtiness; ginormous, knobbly, villain accessories; and facepalm moments.

His Keepsake release!

11/12/2021

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

EMME
That was me with CNC. Going to clubs didn’t make me feel anything anymore. I wanted a soul-wrenching, destructive encounter with a stranger.

I wanted to be kept by someone… in a basement, or in a cage, like a bird or a treasured object?
I could pretend, couldn’t I?

As long as we had a code, the beginning was SANE.
That would be fine. All good.

But when he didn’t say THE word… THAT word.
I wonder if he is just messing with me?
Maybe this is a real abduction. If so, I should be scared.

HIM
Who knew that one day I would do what I had fantasized about for years? Or that my best friend would insist on joining me. This is fun. Filthy. Darker than a grave with the hole filled in, except, she isn’t getting killed.

I might keep her forever, though I’m not telling her that. Or that I’m not the man she arranged to meet.

I open my cellar door and study this precious creature I’ve caught, from her toes to those pretty, tear-filled eyes.

This story has a HEA but for some that will not be enough. There are more triggers in this dark tale than stars in the sky.

My first Omegaverse novel!

Although I have used many of the sexual elements in previous books like Ruled, Condemned and Judged, this is the first time I've added knotting, slick, nesting, and heat.

New release - A Dark Scifi Romance - JUDGED

19/9/2021

Published through Stormy Nights Publications

They took me. Now they’re going to make me theirs.

I left the safety of my city hoping to study the wreckage of a crashed satellite, but I ended up carried off by three Mauleon warriors instead, and these fearsome beasts aren’t interested in my knowledge of long lost technologies. They have far more primitive things in mind for me…

That’s why I’m naked, bound, and helplessly on display as they inspect my quivering body, enjoying every whimper and moan as they torment me in the most shameful ways imaginable. But these brutes plan to do much more than just tease and arouse me until I break down and beg.

They’re going to claim me so ruthlessly and savagely that I’m left in no doubt I belong to them.

Publisher’s Note: Judged is set in the same world as Ruled and Condemned, but it is a stand-alone novel. It includes spankings and rough, intense sexual scenes. If such material offends you, please don’t buy this book.
