#TNTConfidential Author Spotlight on Rawiya & Something about Jayden

Greetings lovelies! Today I've got the very talented Rawiya dropping in for a visit with her latest release, Something about Jayden. I gottta tell you I love her cover *drool* 

They're all yours Rawiya! 







Good morning. My newest release under pseudonym under Rawiya is Something About Jayden. It’s an m/m story with a hot upstart intern and a closeted, married advertising executive. Jayden is more than just a pretty face and Isaac Bridges quickly finds out that Jayden isn’t easily swayed.

Here is the blurb and an excerpt from my new book releasing from Amira Press.

 It is better to love than inflict pain…

Isaac Bridges, married, closeted account executive for Denton & Associates is waiting to take over the company from CEO Silas Denton Senior after he forced Isaac’s father to sign the company over while on his deathbed.  Standing in the way is Silas Junior and upstart intern Jayden DeMario. Jayden’s beauty, intelligence, and commitment to excellence has wowed Isaac so much that Isaac changed his mind about the importance of vengeance for his dad into the vow to win Jayden’s heart. Will Isaac’s decision backfire, leaving him lonely and thus destroying his career?

Married and closeted, Isaac Bridges seeks to win intern Jayden DeMario’s heart against all odds including his own selfish desire to regain his father’s company. After years of being the good son to the homophobic CEO Silas Denton Sr., Isaac wishes to place the Bridges name back in the forefront but will he throw away all his hard work for the young man he obsesses over?

Isaac grimaced when Silas finished his statement. “Right…I…” When a man approached with his secretary in tow, he stopped talking.

“Isaac? You what, man?” Silas tilted his head, asking a question.

Isaac gulped hard, glancing at the young gentleman coming into view.

Damn, who is this?

Isaac blinked, “I agree, I totally… um, Silas, you got…” Isaac nodded his head in the man’s direction. He could barely form the words looking at this pretty sight standing behind his boss.
Silas turned around. “Oh, hello, and you…are… my goodness, who are you?” He reached for the man and grasped his hands tightly.

Yeah, who the heck are you, sexy man?

“Mr. Denton, this is Jayden DeMario. He’s one of the interns from Roosevelt University.” The lady with him smiled sweetly and winked at Isaac. “Hey, Mr. and Mrs. Bridges. You both look amazing tonight.”

Isaac had to change his focus and stop staring at the hot young intern. “Well thank you. I’m really loving that dress on you, Tamela. It’s uh…” Isaac didn’t want to be disrespectful to Debra, but he had to do something not to give away his interest in Jayden.

“Oh, thanks.” Tamela gushed and kissed him on the cheek.

When Debra elbowed him, Isaac squeezed her hand and glanced in the direction of the intern who’d moved away from them.

Fuck.

Maybe it was for the best they did. Jayden was a beauty, tall and of Latino decent. His black ponytail reached the small of his back. Even through the suit, Isaac could tell the man took care of himself. He’d love to see more of that up close and personal. Shit.  Dark brown eyes lay behind those black frames, and his face chiseled from stone; perfect nose and narrow cheekbones, and the chin. Damn, the man was so well put together he looked like he just stepped out of a magazine or movie.

Who was this kid, and when could he start so he and Isaac could get to know one another before Silas corrupted him?

“Isaac. You okay?” Debra’s voice broke him out of his trance.

Isaac glanced down at her and pulled her hand up to his lips. “Sorry about that, honey, but I think I just found love. And I… I swear, I don’t think I’ve ever been hit like this.”

“Whoa, babes.” Debra whispered to him, looking around her while she talked. “The kid? I mean, he is pretty hot, but he’s an intern. Didn’t you just tell me about dating men half my age?”

“Yeah, I did but… I mean, look at him.” Isaac peered over at Silas, most likely wooing him with his Twitter account followers and the spiel on being his favorite boy. Isaac had to admit he’d probably be doing the same thing if he had the chance.

“Isaac, you don’t wanna date where you work. That’s dangerous, and besides, again, you told me about Darnell and…”

“And that was for you, my friend, not me.” Isaac cleared his throat, hoping to get Silas’ attention and meet the man in person. “Hey, um, Silas, you need another drink or…”

Silas looked up and laughed, taking Jayden by the hand.

Oh, hell, it might be too late to save him from Silas.

“This, my friends, is Jayden DeMario, our new intern. I think I’m going to put him under your tutelage, Isaac. You’re great at what you do, and the man seems to know a lot about our company.”

Yes!

Isaac smiled, wishing he could do a silent fist pump.

Jayden’s eyes widened when Silas stopped speaking. “So… you mean I got the job? I…”

“Of course, young man. You’re…” Silas moistened his lips and gripped his palm. “You’re too smart and well qualified. I’d love to have you on my team. So… this is Isaac Bridges and his lovely wife. Isaac, Jayden DeMario. Let me inform the ladies at the front that the position’s been filled. They can turn away all other interns for the evening. We found our man!” Silas let go of Jayden’s hand and grasped his shoulder instead, shaking it. “Why don’t the two of you get acquainted?” Silas slapped Jayden’s back and walked away.

Isaac held out his hand for Jayden. Once they connected, a shot of adrenaline went from his hand straight to his cock. Damn, this was only the first meeting, and the man already had an effect on his libido. “Nice to meet you, Jayden. I’m, uh… very excited to work with you. This is my beautiful wife, Debra.”

“Hi, Jayden, lovely to meet you.”

#8Sunday #SexySnippets #WeekendWritingWarriors: The Three Thieves & The Dom

Dear lovelies,

First of all, my apologies. Last week I was unable to visit your snippet posts. On the one hand, I was getting read for the release of book 3 of The Witches' Mischief series, The Three Thieves and The Dom, on the other hand my computer was being very unhelpful and to top it all I've been feeling like cr*p because of my allergies.

Anyway, I don't know if you remember but about a month ago I was asking you all for advice on buying a new computer because sadly mine was close to perishing. Every time I typed or did anything for that matter, the screen would flicker and turn black; pages would take eons to load; battery didn't last for more than a minute... Well, I'm happy to say I finally have a new laptop! Wohoo! It's an Acer V5 Touch and so far it works like a charm so I'll be visiting you all soon.

Now, about those sentences. Last week I finally revealed that Jace was a bird shifter. I'm afraid, however, that you're going to have to wait a bit to discover exactly what kind of bird he is. Due to my busy week plus crappy computer, I have been unable to add anything to the story. Therefore, and because, well, what the heck, it just released *grin* I'm going to post a snippet from The Three Thieves and The Dom. In this snippet Isidora is remembering Conall. I hope you like it!

“When you’re with me,  you’ll wear your hair loose. I want to see those curls bounce with every shove of my cock, and with every slap of my hand.” 

 Isidora closed her eyes. She wasn’t supposed to think of him. Remembering him didn’t help the ache in her chest, but she couldn’t stop. Conall was the only man she’d ever felt anything for. Most men were uninteresting to her, but there was something about the dark- haired rake that attracted her. Her papa had tried time and time again to marry her off into a prosperous arrangement, but she never accepted.

Magnolia Bay Series:
Bet the House
By Erika Marks
Sweet Home Carolina
By Kim Boykin

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Bet The House by Erika Marks

Willamena Dunn is having a lousy week. Not only is her baby sister about to marry into the family of Dunn-Right Preservation’s biggest professional rival, but the historic bungalow of her dreams has just been bought by the most infuriating (not to mention exceedingly handsome and notoriously wicked) man to ever hammer a nail in Magnolia Bay, Knox Loveless.

But when Knox offers her a wager she can’t refuse, a bet with the coveted bungalow as its prize, Willa is sure her bad luck might finally be turning around—until Knox surprises her with a passionate kiss, and suddenly all bets are off.

Could this be just another one of Knox Loveless’ games, or will two rivals finally surrender to a long-simmering attraction and declare a truce once and for all?


Sweet Home Carolina by Kim Boykin

Darcy Vance has sunk every cent she has into making Mimosa House the best bed and breakfast in Magnolia Bay. But the key to her success lies in the hands of the Historic Preservation Society run by the Bloom bitches who are embarrassed about their father’s connection to the storied house and they have no intention of validating it with a spot on the society’s registry.

After losing his PGA card, Trent Mauldin has come home to Magnolia Bay to lick his wounds and has no plans to stay. Until he falls for Darcy. Things heat up between the two until Trent’s good intentions to help Darcy go sideways.  While Darcy works to save her house, Trent fights to win her back and keep her in Magnolia Bay for good.

Sweet Home Carolina
Kim Boykin
©Copyright 2014

The ancient clock that came with the house chimed the hour. As I shinnied down the ladder, I ran through the to-do list in my head—shower at ten, hair appointment at eleven, then back to the grind of turning Mimosa House into a stellar bed-and-breakfast. My brain counted the bongs as they reverberated off of the walls of my new lease on life that came with a seven-figure mortgage. Nine. Ten. Eleven. “Eleven? Shit.”

I stepped into my good flip-flops by the front door, the ones with hardly any paint on them, grabbed my purse and keys, and sprinted toward the Jeep.

“Yankee.” The hiss came from my lovely neighbor, Mr. Hunsucker, who was somewhere between five and a hundred and five years old and wasn’t at all happy I was opening a B&B. He was watering the prize roses he’d accused me of pilfering on more than one occasion. Okay, so when I thought no one was looking, I’d pulled a spent blossom off, just to smell it, which made me a flower thief and a Yankee.

“Good morning, Mr. Hunsucker,” I called and then ducked into the Jeep before the spray drenched my windshield. Missed me.

Looking up at him in my rearview mirror, he only held up his middle finger a few seconds this time. A new record. Yep, I was definitely growing on him.

#8Sunday #SexySnippets #WeekendWritingWarriors: Jace VIII

Happy Sunday, guys!

Last week, Jace was running for his life and stripping at the same time. I'm continuing where I left off, but to comply to regulations I've created some super run-on sentences. Please forgive me.

Anyway, here it is and as always, thank you for your comments. I appreciate them.

~ ~ ~ ~ ~
 Someone shouted something and then there was silence, which meant that they were stalking and hunting. A shiver coursed through him and he picked up his speed. His only hope was that they still hadn’t figured out he was not human and were having fun with him. He fished his wallet and phone from his pocket and tossed them into the nearest bramble, praying that they wouldn't find it. Red eyes dashed past him to his left. It was now or never; he unbuckled his jeans, spread his arms and jumped. 


Agonizing pain slammed into him and panic clouded his vision but then he felt the wind ruffling his feathers and he realized he was flying, and safe, for the time being. 
 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Ta-da! Now, the question remains, what type of bird is Jace?
