Tag: Five Days to Be Mine

Wish it was longer…

The best part about being an indie author is connecting to readers & having readers who email ASAP when you send out an incorrect link in your newsletter that makes you feel like you have to quit doing this but you somehow manage to take a breath and send out a correction link and it’s oddly kind of making you feel like the editor you mildly dream about being (in some posh setting. It’s a dream, okay? I don’t have those kind of chops. I hate conflict and I’ll avoid it, no matter what. I will not have personal confrontations, thanks).

I know! That was a run on sentence – you can do that in blogging. 

It was a hard morning.

But so thankful for the readers who took the time to let me know! That’s what happens when I try to work on my phone and do too many things at once.

You know what’s also nice? When readers say REALLY nice things about your books.

I had a recent release that kind of flopped. Mercy’s first book did okay! But it’s a first book under a new pen name.

I was so nervous and still kind of am, about Five Days to Be Mine. Because this book means a lot to me. And I wanted readers to love Mara and Evan because I totally fell in love with them.

Look at this review!

This book was so good. I couldn’t put it down. I loved Evan so so much I wish there was a lot of him in the world. I loved how he took care of her, his passion with her, the way he didn’t care about her weight was wo fantastic. Story was awesome. So worth reading. Fantastic HEA. Wish it was longer. [Goodreads Review]

My book? 

You wish it was longer?

My book? 

I’ve thought that same thing about other books? But my book?

For a moment, I thought of writing another book featuring Mara and Evan but that’d throw me off schedule! But I really want to. Bonus scene coming soon.

Thank you for reading!
It keeps me bringing you stories and lets me keep writing through the really awful lows and the red-face moments.

 

 

Take it Tuesday: Two different teasers ….

I might trying to distract myself from tomorrow’s release and it might not be working at all.

For this Tuesday’s Teaser I’m sharing a tease from Five Days to Be Mine (writing as Mercy Denton) that is out in KU tomorrow! This is from a scene where Mara is aware she brushed up against one of Evan’s triggers.
I think having more books with a MC who has a trigger due to their past and how they are working through it with their FMC partner is a good thing and I’m tempted to write more in my books.

“Evan…I would never hurt you.” Mara places her hand on my chest.

I take it and bring it to my mouth, kissing the back of her hand. “I know, princess. Now lay back for me and spread those legs.”

She scurries against the headboard and obeys.

“I need to put my face in this needy pussy.” Before she can react, I drop the vibe and the lube on the bed, settle between her thighs and lick her folds.

Her salty taste is bliss and I lick her mercilessly until she’s grabbing at my hair.

And love her or hate her, but Kayleigh Walsh certainly stirs up a reaction and that’s what you want as an author! Okay, I might wish the reaction was a little more favourable at times, but she still remains one of my favourite characters I have written. In this scene, it’s the first time Erik is teaching her about D/s. Flame for Foe is in Kobo Plus and you can grab it here

 

Teaser from flame for foe

When he treats the plus sized submissive like a goddess…

In my defense, there was sun behind the curtain. So you can understand why my morning plan included thinking of getting my small humans out the door to go to the park to ride their scooters, because this was before I got myself out of bed and opened the curtain.

We got snow out there.
So not the day to zoom around the park.

Mercy’s next book, Five Days to Be Mine is out on Wednesday. I am so thrilled with this book. I love how tender Evan is, how hard he falls and how he keeps showing Mara that wants her. Here’s a teaser.
You can grab Five Days to Be Mine here or it’s in KU on Wednesday! 

 

“Tell me what you see.”

“I see my huge body flopped on a bed. My legs are tied,” her voice trembles, she glances away.

“You mean, you see your gorgeous body placed on the bed.”

She swallows. “Evan…I know what I look like.”

“Yes. I love your curves.”

“Seeing myself in the mirror…”

“What, princess?’

She shakes her head. “‘Huge’ is the first word that came to my mind.”

“Let me give you others,” I cup her breast and squeeze it. “Spectacular. Stunning. Goddess.”

Mara laughs. “You do make me feel like a goddess.”

“And I’m going to worship you like one…”
