BREAK AND ENTER BY CHRISTINA J. LOREN
When a lone burglar breaks into James’ home demanding everything, temperatures soar between both men.
James didn’t think the nights could get any hotter in Phoenix, but he was wrong. When a lone burglar breaks into his home demanding everything, temperatures soar.
Mark’s a thief who believes he knows exactly what he’s after, until one smoking hot homeowner makes him an offer he can’t refuse: perfect submission. This is one break and enter neither man will ever forget.

Excerpt
“Shit.” James’s heart rate kicked into double time, and he jerked his head in the direction of the intruder. Before he could move, a masked figure in black raised his arm. In the glint of the moonlight, James realized with sickening clarity that a silver gun was aimed straight for his head.
“Don’t move and everything will be over soon.”
“I don’t plan on moving with that thing pointed at me.” James curled both hands into fists. What a fine damn time to get robbed when the only thing he had for a weapon were the boxer shorts covering his ass.
“Where’s your wallet? ”
“On the nightstand,” James said, doing his best to keep the adrenalin shakes out of his voice. “Over here.” He indicated the table beside his bed with a rock of his head.
“This is how we’re going to do it,” the robber began. “Reach over, real nice and slow, take hold of your wallet, and place it at the end of the bed. Any funny business and I will put a bullet between your eyes.”
“All right, no need to get nasty.”
James lifted his left hand, reached over, and grabbed his wallet. Slowly, he sat up, stretched to the end of the bed, and dropped the wallet. At his new proximity to the robber, James risked a better look at the man. The thief’s mask completely covered his face and head. The only openings were the holes left for his mouth and eyes. Even with his face covered, James couldn’t miss the way the guy devoured his half-naked body with his gaze. The intensity of it made him tremble, but it wasn’t fear giving him the shakes. Instead of lowering back to the mattress, James continued on and rose to his knees, encouraged by the stranger’s blatant stare. At the foot of the bed, James swallowed hard and took a chance. One he hoped might fulfill his most wicked hidden desire.
“I have an alternative,” James murmured.

“Dammit, Tony, this is not funny!”
The forest waited, unnaturally quiet. Dan took a step deeper into the trees and his scalp prickled. Fear shivered through him. He was going to fucking kill Tony for this.
He jumped as a shadow moved in the trees. “Tony?”
Heart thumping, he rounded a Cedar and saw Tony crumpled on the ground. Oh shit. He knelt and gathered the man in his arms. His skin felt like ice. “Honey?”
Dan lifted his head. A dark presence stood at his back, malevolent, treacherous. He whimpered at the foul breath on his neck. “What…”
A hand, black as midnight and despair, appeared. A light shown through clasped fingers. The thing’s whisper was sharp as a blade. “His life. Trade?”
He nodded, and quicksilver slid from the dark hand into Tony’s breast. Then arms went around him, tight as a vice, and hauled him to his feet.
“Dan!”
He looked back. Tony stared at them, terror on his face.
“Wait—” Dan began, but the black thing clutched his cock through his jeans. Pleasure exploded in his body, boiled along his nerves. Too much! His orgasm built on a wave of exquisite pain and ecstasy, searing his blood. He opened his mouth to scream but lush lips clamped on his, over ripe, rotten, stealing his breath. Then darkness took him for its own.

For a great many men, the concept of true love—of soul mates—is a thing of fiction. Of tawdry romance novels and fantasies. For me, the thing of fantasy has always been lust. One cannot fancy a man—cannot want to have intimate knowledge of a man—unless one knows his heart. Knows his likes and dislikes, his thoughts on a whole gamut of things.
Imagine my perplexity then, when I met him. When I gazed upon that visage which should not make any man tremble. He was a thing of exotic beauty—the symbols on his skin, the fierce gleam of his dark eyes, the invisible cloak of danger and darkness and evil resonating around him. Any man’s heart should speed with fear in his presence. No man’s heart should speed with lust, yet mine…
Imagine my considerable ill ease when I realized I cared not for his likes and dislikes, nor his thoughts on a whole gamut of things.
Imagine my mortification as I realized all I wished was to fall in submission before him, service his cock—which I was certain would be most impressive—and bid him thanks for his time.
Imagine my terror when he revealed his true nature to me—not a man, but a demon. A thing of hell, spawned from the Devil himself. A thing of considerable evil.
Imagine my thrill when he gently pushed me to my knees, opened the fly of his breeches, and beckoned me to reach inside.
Imagine the surge of heat and need and want that flooded me at the first brush of my flesh against his.
Imagine the slick slide of his unholy cock, the sealing of my lips around it that likewise sealed my fate as His.
Imagine.

Jason held his cheroot to the side and blew a thin stream of blue smoke into the garden. The whiny stringed instruments from the ball couldn’t hide the crunch of feet on the path.
“What are you doing out here?” He demanded hoarsely. Trenton would put his huskiness down to the smoke, maybe the bastard would know it was emotion.
“I wasn’t flirting with her.”
“I know the language of the fan, My Lord. She wanted you to meet her in the gardens.”
“I’m only interested in meeting you.” Trenton D’Arcy swung Jason around by the arm. Jase allowed the cheroot to slip from his fingers and stamped it out. His hands landed on Trent’s shoulders as the hope of the match making mamas took his mouth in a torrid kiss that left them breathless.
Quickly, he recovered his resentment and pushed Trent away, his prick a hard ache inside his white satin evening breeches. “Damn you! Why do you do this?”
“Because I love you.”
He winced at the bald statement. “You should love some dainty demoiselle who can provide you with children and social grace. I can give you nothing.”
“You give what I most need, Jason.”

“So, what are you in the mood for? Rough and frantic or slow and easy? You want chills to go up and down your spine? I can do that, you know…I’ve got the power in my hands.”
“Oh do you now? What if I don’t like what your hands are offering?”
“Hey, I’m versatile. I like all kinds.” He straddled my legs and thrust into my stomach. “Come on baby, just tell me and I’ll make it happen.”
“Whoa now, big boy. First off that’s a tad too high, my belly button loves your tongue but that thing ramming into it might hurt.”
“Is that what you want tonight? A little pain with your pleasure? A little moaning with your groaning?”
I couldn’t contain my snort. “And that’s why I fell legs over head for you…your lines are astounding. Now are we gonna do this or not?”
“All you have to do is lead me baby. Come on, curl up those long agile fingers of yours and point me in the right direction.” He licked up my neck.
“Okay, that one.”
My finger rested on the DVD he held with his right hand.
“Really? Robin Hood Men In Tights again?”
If I Said I Loved You
“I’m going unless you can give me a damn good reason to stay.”
Sylvan sat in the breakfast buttering his toast with manic attention. Without looking at me, he laid down his knife and reached for the jar of peach and whiskey preserves. “I said I love you. What more do you want?”
If the dryer hadn’t stopped when I opened the door to rifle through the fresh laundry, I wouldn’t have heard him.
“You love me?” I threw faded jeans in the bag. “You love everything. This morning you’ve told me you love the toast, the jam, the song on the radio and our neighbor.”
He shifted and his blue eyes narrowed as his gaze followed me. “I don’t get it.”
“Where do I rank? You can’t love everything and expect it to mean a damn thing to me when you say it to me.”
His lips tightened eloquently. “It’s not the same. Loving toast and loving you are different.”
“I think you love having someone make the fucking toast. I think you love having the radio set to your favorite station, having the jam you like appear by magic, and you love that Ethel thinks you’re fucking adorable.”
“Wait a minute!”
“I made the toast, bought the jelly, opened the door and lent Ethel coffee.” I zipped the bag on my frustrations. “I’m going.”
“I’ll be alone.”
“That’s the point.” Alone, and doing things for himself.
“I’ll miss you.”
“You’ll miss the things I do for you.”
A peek at Brandon and Percy from ‘Shelton’s Homecoming’.
Brandon made a dash for the café door, dodging raindrops. He caught sight of Percy in the window and his heart jumped. It never failed to baffle and thrill him that the handsome, successful man wanted to be with him, a college nobody. Sure, he was graduating next semester, but the future was still shaky.
He shook out his coat then hurried to Percy’s table. His lover remained unaware of him and Brandon bit a plump lip, an affectation he’d cultivated in his youth, knowing it drove the boys wild to kiss him. Now he did it unconsciously in moments of stress.
Percy glanced up and his lovely eyes darkened with excitement. Suddenly weak, Brandon slid into the booth opposite him. “Well?”
His darling’s happiness spilled out in smiles and a soft laugh. He slid a brochure across the table. “He’s agreed! I thought we could fly out in the fall, after you grad—”
“No,” he interrupted, then rushed to explain when Percy’s face paled, pointing to the print on the bottom of the pamphlet he’d read a thousand times the past week. “It says Reverend Louis needs a ten day leeway. I’ll marry you next Saturday, honey. I don’t want to wait one damn day longer.”
Percy didn’t say anything, though his eyes were moist when he picked up Brandon’s hand. Brandon swallowed and blinked away his own tears when his usually reserved boyfriend, at least in public, kissed each fingertip then pressed a passionate kiss on his palm.

Today I wanted to share a bit about my August 31 release, “Bad Moon Rising”
Blurb:
Bryce never expected to find himself smack in the middle of a zombie apocalypse, and he certainly never expected to meet the man of his dreams along the way. But there’s more than zombies in the way of his happily ever after. Richard comes with baggage, in the form of his on again, off again bipolar lover Cole, who is off his meds and descending into his own mental hell at an alarming rate. Will the three men be able to work out their romantic feelings? Oh yeah…and then there’s that little issue of the zombies…
Excerpt:
I jerked awake to the sound of glass shattering. A quick glance around told me it wasn’t our window, but something outside, nearby. Fuck! The car! I jumped up but Richard caught my arm and yanked me down next to him.
“Stay down!”
“What’s going on?” I whispered.
“Looters,” Cole revealed. “They’re going up and down the street, searching cars.”
Well, at least they wouldn’t steal it, since we had the keys, and the chances of them sticking around to do any real damage to it seemed pretty slim, too. All we had to do was wait it out, and they’d go away.
Dolly stood and paced to the door, walking back and forth in front of it like she was on guard duty.
On the street, yelling broke out, and gunshots echoed in the night. Richard cursed.
Our visitors had apparently been discovered. Shouts of run and look out descended into just inarticulate screaming and then the unthinkable: Dolly started barking.
Cole lunged for her, but the damage had already been done. The people outside started banging on our door, pleading to be let in. “What do we do?” I looked to Richard, who was shaking his head.
“Nothing.”
“But if we don’t let them in, they’ll be infected,” I argued. Those were people outside–we had to help them. What if the roles were reversed? What if that had been me outside?
“And if we do let them in, we’ll be infected.” He reached for one of our backpacks and started shoving things inside. “We can’t stay here. Cole, shut that damned mutt up!”
“I’m trying!” Cole struggled with Dolly, trying to get her calmed down and quiet.
Richard shoved a bag at me, hitting me square in the chest and bringing me back to reality. “Pack light. We’ll be walking.”
“The car–”
“Is compromised. We’ll never get near it. Hurry up. Cole!”
Cole scrambled back to us, dragging Dolly behind him. Outside the shouting and banging intensified. Someone must’ve gotten smart, because a brick came careening through an exposed part of the door glass near the top. It sailed through the air, barely missing Richard’s head.
“Time to go!” Richard shoved Cole toward the back door. “Bryce, help me with the boards!”
I grabbed up a discarded hammer and handed it over to him while I fished in my bag for the crowbar I’d brought. We struggled with the boards, hacking and pulling. Richards face turned red with his exertion, and I felt the warmth of my own efforts spreading out from my arm muscles, making my chest tight and painful.
“Hurry up, guys!” Cole shouted.
BOOK FEATURE: IT’S SIMPLE, SIMON
Good morning and welcome to the Breathless Press blog! *nudges coffee pot over* Help yourself to the caffeine. I’m sharing one of our new releases today- this one the latest in our Naughty Nursery Rhyme series. The Naughty Nursery Rhymes are sexy versions of those old rhymes that we all remember from childhood- retold to appeal to an adult audience.
This story is based on the rhyme, Simple SImon. Maybe you remember it?
Simple Simon met a pie man
Going to the fair
Said Simple Simon to the pie man
“Let me taste your ware”
Said the pie man to Simple Simon
“Show me first your penny”
Said Simple Simon to the pie man
“Indeed I have not any”
With a lead up like that, how can money not be the heart of the story?
BLURB
Simon Carter has achieved unimaginable success and he owes it all to a man from his past whose scorn set fire to his ambition.
“It’s Simple, Simon. You lack ambition.”
Chase Garvin’s jibe had sent Simon Carter on unexpected paths and brought him unimaginable success. No longer a penniless musician, the highly paid investment banker is going home for the first time in years. He plans to rest, relax, and spend a little time rubbing his ex-lover’s nose in his success. A visit to the Renaissance Fair brings this not-quite-so-simple- Simon nose to nose with his past and somehow revenge doesn’t seem quite so attractive.
Chase Garvin, Denver, Colorado’s very own Pie Man, is still incredibly handsome. What’s more, the more mature Chase is very appreciative of Simon’s talents.
When the old attraction flares between them, Simon and the Pie Man get caught up in tasting the wares, and neither counts the pennies.
Excerpt
He sniffed the golden pies. Mmm. Chase had always been talented in the kitchen. The aroma was intoxicating. Delicious. As he ate, savoring the flaky crust and rich fillings, he contemplated the man who’d treated him to the pies. Chase was one hot baker. He’d always been sexy, but there was no way that hunk of beef could fit into his old Renaissance garb. Chase had put on muscle. His shoulders had broadened, his biceps bulged, and mmm…. The rest was hidden behind that voluminous apron, but Simon doubted that it had changed much.
Best of all, Chase still seemed to find him attractive. That was just icing on the cake. The sugar on the pie? He chuckled softly. Whatever it was, he liked it. Liked the idea that Chase might still be interested in him sexually. As he licked the sugary filling off his fingers, he contemplated abandoning his plan. After all, Chase hadn’t meant to hurt him years ago, and he’d certainly seemed welcoming enough, even though to all appearances Simon hadn’t changed over the years. Yeah, there really wasn’t any reason to prove to Chase how successful and ambitious he really was. He should just come clean.
On the other hand, he felt like enough of an idiot for hiding his success in the first place. He bit into the next pie, feeling the juice trickle down his chin. He licked at it, chewing and swallowing, scrabbling absently for a napkin to wipe his chin. It would be horribly embarrassing to go back to that booth and offer to pay for the pies, to tell Chase why he hadn’t wanted to pay in the first place.
“Here, I’ll get that for you.” Chase grabbed his napkin. To his surprise, Chase drooped down onto the grass next to him. Instead of dabbing his chin with the white paper napkin, the man leaned forward, his breath a warm buttery scented breeze as he hovered close for a moment before gently licking the juice off Simon’s skin.
