Earlier today Helyce reviewed (and loved) the Marked anthology. Now the authors are here with some sexy excerpts from each story. MARKED: Three stories of passion, possession, and ink Stories can take us from our everyday world into the future, or to places in the current here and now that we've never before been. They can show us heat, and passion, and in the case of an anthology, provide more than one trip to a fabulous happily-ever-after. Kit Rocha, Lauren Dane and Vivian Arend Continue Reading

What we know most about him, though, is that he is not looking for a Continue Reading

I’m a total hermit—I’d way rather stay at home watching movies or puttering around in my garden. I absolutely hate winter. I’m Continue Reading
