How Cassie Got Her Grind Back can be pre-ordered now!<\/p>\n

Cassie Villalobos promised Samson and Ivan Cutter on the day they graduated high school that she would pursue her dreams of becoming a singer-songwriter, no matter what.<\/p>\n

Raised under the dictatorial thumb of her father, Cassie\u2019s promise went unfulfilled. Newly single, her hands are full running her coffee shop, Divine Drip, and dealing with her aging parents, and lothario ex-husband.<\/p>\n

Samson and Ivan left Divine after graduation, never intending to return, but they\u2019ve never forgotten their love for Cassie.<\/p>\n

Banked embers flare between the three at their thirty year class reunion. Although she has friends in m\u00e9nages, Cassie is intimidated by the desire of two men, believing she is past her prime and the men set out to change her mind.<\/p>\n

Samson\u2019s passion for sadism is balanced by Ivan\u2019s easy affection, and Cassie finds the combination irresistible. Hope flares for fulfilling all her dreams while stirring the distorted illusions of someone obsessed with controlling her.<\/p>\n

Box Set: Divine Grace, Her Gentle Giant (Parts 1 & 2), Heavenly Angel<\/u><\/p>\n

Blurb:<\/p>\n

More excitement coming on May 6th! Siren-BookStrand is releasing the Divine Creek Ranch Collection boxed set, Volume One for $4.99. All three stories bundled together at a fantastic price for 500,000+ words…<\/p>\n

In Divine Grace, with the help of three gorgeous men Grace is able to free herself from an abusive boyfriend. Jack, Ethan, and Adam know they have found the one woman they want to pleasure and protect, but the real difficulty comes in convincing her that their interest is in far more than just a fling. For them, this is forever.<\/p>\n

In Her Gentle Giant, Part 1: No Regrets, Eli Wolf, a cross between Viking and Indian warrior, has found in Rachel Lopez someone infinitely more compelling than the women who flock to him nightly as security at The Dancing Pony Nightclub. When Rachel\u2019s apartment burns down, Eli invites her to stay with him and begins the work of overcoming Rachel\u2019s jealous nature, the one thing that could keep them apart.<\/p>\n

In Her Gentle Giant, Part 2: Remember to Dance, as Rachel and Eli prepare for a future together, painful memories surface from Rachel\u2019s past. Though she protests to be unaffected by them, Eli is not so fast to forgive. He recruits the men of Divine Creek Ranch in his effort to correct the offense. Rachel confronts a test of her own as she decides once and for all whether her trust in Eli is absolute.<\/p>\n

In Heavenly Angel, Angel Martinez spends months patiently coaxing the beautiful Teresa out of her self-imposed shell. Teresa has left a painful past behind in order to begin a new life for her and her son. She cares deeply for the Divine Creek Ranch foreman but, just as she is ready to let her guard down, the arrival of Joaquin, Angel\u2019s brother, throws her for a loop. Now her efforts of moving on are doubly tested as she considers the alluring possibility of having both the heavenly Angel and the devilish Joaquin.<\/p>\n

Interview with Samson<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n

What is your most cherished possession?<\/strong>\u00a0By this question I assume you mean inanimate objects. I try not to get too hung up on possessions but if pressed I\u2019d have to say my impact toy collection, mainly whips that I\u2019m especially fond of using, and my book collection.<\/p>\n

How do you feel about being the center of attention?\u00a0<\/strong>I don\u2019t mind it. I like being in a leadership role which often means having eyes on me. At the club, I don\u2019t generally notice, especially during scenes. My focus needs to remain on whoever I\u2019m working with. I take that responsibility seriously.<\/p>\n

What makes you blush?<\/strong>\u00a0Compliments\u2026and questions about what kind of underwear I prefer to wear.<\/p>\n

What makes you laugh out loud?<\/strong>\u00a0The stuff Bunny says to Joseph at Hazelle House just to see how he reacts, usually with a ball gag and a paddle\u2026or orgasm torture if she\u2019s especially naughty.<\/p>\n

How do you feel, generally, about the opposite sex?<\/strong>\u00a0Unworthy, and I mean that in the larger sense and not as a lack on my part. I grew up with loving parents and in general I love the fairer sex. I think they\u2019re stronger than men in almost every way except for possibly the physical sense\u2026but then I think of them giving birth and yeah, nope. They\u2019re stronger all the way around.<\/p>\n

What is your worst habit?<\/strong>\u00a0Not going to the gym more. And maybe cussing.<\/p>\n

Do you have any irrational fears or phobias?<\/strong>\u00a0Heights really bug me.<\/p>\n

How do you think your exes would describe you?<\/strong>\u00a0Distant, maybe? I think in the back of my mind I was holding out because no one compared to Cassie.<\/p>\n

How deeply does your job \/ social role define you as a person?<\/strong>\u00a0To a high degree. I like being in a position of leadership and direction, whether it\u2019s on the job or at the BDSM club. People rely on me and I enjoy that role<\/p>\n

What are you the most hopeless at?<\/strong>\u00a0Small talk. I hate wasting time with chit-chat. I prefer action to talking.<\/p>\n

What would you never do, no matter the price?<\/strong>\u00a0Cheat in a committed relationship. In my line of work in both the military and as a police officer I\u2019ve seen a lot of it, as well as the consequences and the collateral damage.<\/p>\n

Quote<\/strong>: \u201cIf you can\u2019t stand the heat get out of the kitchen,\u201d from Harry Truman, \u00a0and from Shakespeare, \u201cWhen I saw you I fell in love, and you smiled because you knew.\u201d I always thought that last one was pretty romantic.<\/p>\n

TV Show<\/strong>: I work so many nights I don\u2019t have any favorite television shows, although I was a big fan of \u201cDirty Jobs\u201d and \u201cFriends\u201d which I can usually find late night on reruns somewhere on satellite.<\/p>\n

How do you feel about being the center of attention?<\/strong>\u00a0Love it!<\/p>\n

What makes you blush?<\/strong>\u00a0Nothing, honey. That\u2019s just the heat from my Viking stove.<\/p>\n

How do you feel, generally, about the opposite sex?<\/strong>\u00a0Love them. LOVE THEM. Especially this gorgeous brunette I knew in high school. Man, she was an angel. Too bad she wound up with a total dickhead who didn\u2019t deserve to kiss the soles of her feet.<\/p>\n

What is your worst habit?<\/strong>\u00a0I\u2019m bad about forgetting to return calls. I tend to procrastinate. Oh, and I suck at parking.<\/p>\n

Do you have any irrational fears or phobias?<\/strong>\u00a0Clothes shopping.<\/p>\n

How do you think your exes would describe you?<\/strong>\u00a0Too committed to my career and the long hours restaurants keep. And when I\u2019m not cooking I\u2019m talking about cooking\u2026or thinking about cooking.<\/p>\n

How deeply does your job \/ social role define you as a person?<\/strong>\u00a0Deeply. I want to feed everyone. It\u2019s genetic. My mom is the same way.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s your favorite smell?<\/strong>\u00a0Remember that brunette I mentioned earlier? She owns a coffee shop and bakery in Divine, and a friend of mine brought me one of her fancy cupcakes in a gift box. I opened that box and this heavenly aroma of vanilla bean, hazelnut, and some exotic spice… My mouth is watering just thinking about it. Now I associate that smell with my memories of her.<\/p>\n

What are you the most hopeless at?<\/strong>\u00a0Understanding women. I think I need a woman who likes to cook as much as I do and then we might understand each other.<\/p>\n

What would you never do, no matter the price?<\/strong>\u00a0Bungee jumping. And cheating in a relationship. Never gonna happen, either one.<\/p>\n

Excerpt from How Cassie Got Her Grind Back:<\/u><\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever you do, Samson, don\u2019t give her the steely-eyed dominant stare. And what are you? A nervous thirteen-year-old girl calling her BFF for pointers on how to act around the boy she likes?\u201d<\/p>\n

Samson had called Ivan while waiting for Joseph and Bunny\u2019s wedding to get started to let him know Cassie was in attendance. Samson watched as the woman of their dreams entered the hallway outside the suite Bunny had been holed up in for the last two hours.<\/p>\n

Samson scowled at his phone and then put it back to his ear. Chuckling silently, Jack Warner looked over at him and lifted his chin inquiringly at the phone. Samson shook his head and looked down at the floor. \u201cLower your voice, man. I just wanted you to know she was here. I guess she\u2019s one of Bunny\u2019s bridesmaids or attendants. I didn\u2019t know they were that close. Shit.\u201d He wasn\u2019t smooth like his brother, and the first thing he\u2019d thought when he\u2019d laid eyes on her was to call Ivan.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen you get a chance, just slide on up to her and start a conversation with her. Don\u2019t give her\u00a0the stare<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat stare?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe one you give people who you want to do your bidding. Probably the same one you use when you want to beat on one of your poor masochists.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThey\u2019re not my \u2018poor masochists,\u2019 fucker,\u201d he ground out as he walked a short distance down the hallway. \u201cI only give them what they need, and I would think you\u2019d know that by now since you know how to use Google. I\u2019m not a monster.\u201d Jack snorted in amusement and Samson stepped farther down the hall.<\/p>\n

Ivan\u2019s chuckle on the other end made him grind his teeth. \u201cNo, you\u2019re a big squeez-y teddy bear. You got all that growling out of your system now? Take a deep breath and\u2026just smile at her. Offer to get her a glass of champagne. Dance with her. Don\u2019t say anything about the past, and for fuck\u2019s sake, don\u2019t tell her you like to spank naughty girls.\u201d<\/p>\n

Samson grinned, imaging for a split second how her lush bare butt cheek would feel under his hand. \u201cAt least not yet.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJust never in front of me, okay?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cShe\u2019s in a mansion housing a BDSM club, and she\u2019s friends with several subs. I think they\u2019ve talked. So it shouldn\u2019t come as any big surprise to her. Fine, I won\u2019t say anything about my sadistic tendencies, okay?\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cAnd I wouldn\u2019t say anything about attending the class reunion. Just let her be surprised.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI wasn\u2019t going to since you need to be with us before I say anything about\u2026you know.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cRight. So just establish you\u2019re the nice guy she remembers and you\u2019re still single. And try not to give her the impression she\u2019s in your sights.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOur sights.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhatever. I\u2019m not getting my hopes up until I get a green light from her. I have to go. My ganache is thickening.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gazing at her delicious form from the rear, he admired the sensual sway of her hips and the graceful curve of her bare back and neck as she moved past a window. \u201cThat\u2019s not the only thing thickening. Later.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cPervert.\u201d<\/p>\n
