Looky, looky! I have another wonderful author visiting TnT Confidential for the first time! Her name is
Tamsin Baker and she's here with a delicious erotic romance called
Eternal Hearts.
For
five hundred years, vampires Nathaniel and Michael have loved each
other. But without their third mate, they feel empty and incomplete.
Lady
Margaret Tonnington is a recent widow who has finally got some control
over her life. The last thing she wants or expects are two male
vampires, both claiming to need her. She is shocked by the strength of
their passion for each other and wants to be a part of that love.
But
Michael and Nathaniel want to bind her to them forever. Margaret is
hesitant to change her life and fights to stay human. A compromise will
be almost impossible, however it is essential for her vampire mates'
lives that she does.
Welcome
Tamsin to In A Dream Beyond!
Since
it’s your first visit I have to ask the question: when did you start writing
and why?
Well, I wrote a lot of poetry
at high school, but stopped doing anything creative once Year 12 and University
kicked in. I picked up the writing about 5 years ago, but only got serious
about it about 12 months ago. Why? Because I love it.
What’s
your favorite part of the writing process? How about your least favorite?
Well,
my favorite part of the publishing process is the cover art J Writing- I love those first few chapters where the story is developing
so fast in my head, my fingers can barely keep up with the movie that’s running
before my eyes. Least? Hmmm, if I’ve been silly enough not to write from start
to finish, I don’t really enjoy pulling all the pieces together. Sometimes they
don’t fit very well and I have to re-write- which I hate.
Where
does your inspiration stem from?
Mostly submission calls. I love having
parameters to write to. Or I just think- I haven’t tried shifters yet- I may
just have a go at that.
Tell us
a secret about your upcoming release:
Bonded Hearts? It was REALLY fun to
write. I’d never written a MMM before, and the logistics of the sex scenes were
a little difficult to begin with, but they can be a LOT of fun J
In three
to five words, why will we fall in love with the main characters of this novel?
Their
passion for each other
What’s
next for Tamsin?
The next two of my vampire trilogy, then my shifter
series.Also, I have an m/m contemporary coming out.

have any right to judge anyone else.
Excerpt anyone?
Just
after seven the following evening, Nathaniel dragged a reluctant
Michael into the same brothel he always frequented. His mate needed
to be completely under control when they met Margaret again.
She
truly did smell like Heaven. Untold pleasure awaited them.
The
Madame nodded at Nathaniel, and he headed towards the room he knew
she left open for her “different” clientele. Michael followed
close on his heels.
“What
the hell are we doing here, Nathaniel? I need to see Margaret.”
Nathaniel
clenched his jaw and groaned as his fangs extended over his bottom
lip. The mere mention of Margaret’s name had his blood-lust surging
to the forefront of his mind.
“I
know you do. I feel it, too. But if we don’t feed before we see
her, we will never be able to control ourselves.”
Michael
grunted and threw himself into a nearby chair, the disgruntled
picture of a thwarted child.
“We
shouldn’t need to. I could turn her tonight and then spend the rest
of eternity making her love us.”
Nathaniel
rolled his eyes. He had already tried to explain to Michael what they
needed to do. Michael wasn’t in total agreement. But what did he
know about the emotional needs of others? He had spent five hundred
years taking Nathaniel’s love and never returning it in a vocal
sense. Nathaniel knew that Margaret would need everything, soft
touches, loving words, and the actions. Between them, they could
woo her and win her.
“Michael,
we don’t want her turning spiteful and denying us. We know she is
meant for us, but we have to convince her of that.”
“Oh,
bull. I shouldn’t have to wait.” Michael jumped to his feet, as
impatient as ever. He grabbed at the door handle to leave, and
Nathaniel lost his temper. He moved in front of his mate and pushed
him back with all the angry force he could master.
“Listen
to me, you selfish bastard. I have stayed in London for almost my
entire five hundred years. I didn’t go missing on the
Continent for a century. You were the one who left Michael, not me. I
have wanted her, needed her for as long as you have, and I will not
let you fuck this up!”
Michael’s
mouth fell open, and Nathaniel grunted as two whores walked into the
room.
They
were plain faced but clean enough and smelled decent.
“Now
let’s get this over and done with so we can begin the rest of our
lives.”
Michael’s
blue eyes shimmered with unshed tears, before nodding and sitting
down in his chair. Nathaniel’s relief was overwhelming. He had won.
“I’ll
take the brunette.”
The
brown haired whore sauntered towards Michael, and he looked her over
with a very mild interest. She sat in his lap and tilted her head for
him. He exposed his fangs and held her to him whilst he bit her,
almost reluctantly.
Nathaniel
had to laugh as he pulled the blonde into his arms and sank his teeth
into her neck. He always preferred blondes.
About the author
Tamsin Baker is an Aussie girl who only found erotic romance about ten
months ago. Before that she read sexy romance, skipping the plot looking
for the ‘good bits.’ Since then she have written and obtained 14
contracts of varying lengths with erotic romance and erotica. She
absolutely LOVES reading and writing it! She have two other jobs, kids
and a hubby too, but writing is a passion that she has to indulge, for
fear of insanity.
M/M is a passion of hers so even in her menage stories, there is always
M/M. Female domme is a fun one to write too, but she is open to all
genres. One step at a time she is learning to read more and write more.
Soon she’ll have stories published in every sub genre of erotic romance –
or that is her aim anyway.
