SEXY VOICEOVER ALA CAPTAIN JACK SPARROW: Award-winning author Suzanne Ferrell often day dreamed of far away places, dangerous situations and strong, sexy men. When she picked up her pen to write her first novel, little did she know how powerful those dreams could be.

 

A lover of Westerns from a young age, Suzanne’s heroes stand tall in the saddle in the face of danger, living and loving by their own code of honor. Lucky are the women who find themselves at the center of their passions.

 

Born and raised in the mid-west, it took Suzanne a few years to get to Texas, the land of her favorite heroes. Now that she’s here it feels like home to her, her husband and mixed-breed dog, Rocky. Wenches and Pirates, say hello to the incomparable, Suzanne Ferrell! *loud cheering*


Thank you, Terri and all the Revenge crew for having me here on Valentine’s Day.

Valentine’s Day and romance novels. What could go together better? In my humble opinion—nothing! Unless of course it’s a ménage à trois of Valentine’s Day, romance novels and chocolate.

This year I can happily say I get to participate in this loving threesome, as my first published novel, The Surrender of Lacy Morgan is available to download as an e-book with the Ellora’s Cave Publishers! Yes, after fifteen years of writing and eight completed manuscripts, an editor fell in love with my characters, my story and my writing enough to take a chance on publishing my book.

I love this story and I hope you will,too. This is the story blurb:

When two steely-eyed, lean-hipped strangers ride into town, Lacy Morgan knows her past has caught up with her. What she doesn’t know is that the U.S. marshals will do whatever’s necessary to capture her stepfather and his gang of murdering thieves, including bringing Lacy to her knees to serve their sexual needs.

 

Quinn and his blood brother Dakota are searching for the key to finding the band of outlaws who murdered their adoptive father. When they confront the sultry stepdaughter of the gang’s leader, they discover she’s unaware of her natural submissive tendencies.

 

As they journey to the gang’s lair, each day the men draw Lacy further and further into a sensuality she’s never known and a trust she’d sworn never to surrender to again. Using her lusty body for their combined pleasure, they find themselves ensnared in the same tender trap.

While the story is an erotica, you can see it is also a historical western, complete with sexy marshals and really bad, bad guys. Unlike the old westerns where the heroes were perfect and the heroine a sweetheart, I wanted mine to be grittier, my heroes willing to do whatever it took to catch the gang’s leaders.

I also wanted each sex scene to build upon the previous and to change the characters as they progressed through the story. The act of sex should change the people involved, don’t you think? It’s so personal, so intimate, people at their deepest core. Hearts aren’t always at the center of sex. But in a romance novel they should always be affected.

That growth and change through their sensuality was the thing that drew me to romance novels to begin with. How sex or sexual tension affected the characters, how it changed them. From my first Barbara Cartland, “borrowed” from my aunt’s closet; through my years of Kathleen Woodiwiss, Rosemary Rodgers and Johanna Lindsey; to my infatuation with Julie Garwood, Amanda Quick, Jodi Thomas, Sherrilyn Kenyon and Jo Davis, I’ve always loved the way the characters find love, make love and fall in love.

As for chocolate? Well, there isn’t any in Lacy’s book, but I foresee some in a future work. :)

So dear readers, what do you assosciate with Valentine’s Day? Are there any special authors you love to read and who take you on that emotional/sexual journey time after time? For one lucky commentor I have a box of Godiva Chocolates and a $10 Amazon gift card!

Hahaha, I always love when you suckers come here to the ship and find out it's not Ter who's posted, but it is I, the Sinner.

 

Ter and the Hellion are off dressing up like Indians and drinking all the good rum. Probably dancing around the mast buck naked and calling on the moon gods. Don't mind me, I'd had a little of the rum myself.

 



 

Oh, oops. Darn. How did he get there. My bad.

 

Not.

 

Hotties, hotties, hotties. Every week Ter brings us the finest beefcake on the open seas. When Mr. Mattycakes heard the message left by the Hellion for me to take over this week, he was offended. Offended mostly because not only is it my sworn duty to find the hottest of hot new pirate crew today, but I told him that I was going to type hot underwear models into google and see what it turned up. Honestly this job is tough, but someone's gotta do it.

 



 

I just finished reading Lover Avenged, a novel of the Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R. Ward (love those books). There is nothing better than a dark, demented hero with a mohawk and amethyst eyes. This hottie is hot in a whole other way. Inked back, buns of steel, dark gleam in his eyes. I just want to run my fingers through his hair and claw my way down his back.

 

 

Now, this hotties blog can't be complete without a shout out to my Twilight fixation. I could stare at this picture all day and never go cross eyed.

 



 

I hope everyone has a great mother's day. Happy Mama's day, mama.

 

 

And only because I wouldn't want my own personal hottie to be offended by me writing a hotties blog and not including him.



 Have a happy hotties day.
