Confessions of a Nympho - new book by Ashley Ladd - released Today! Monday March 10th

I’d like to introduce you to two very interesting characters: Tatiana Reece and Ace Dyer, in my brand new release, “Confessions of a Nympho”, at http://www.total-e-bound.com/, TODAY (Monday March 10, 2008).

I have to say that I miss my characters after I say goodbye. Sometimes, I just can’t say goodbye and bring them back in sequels. (To be released soon by Ellora’s Cave at http://www.ellorascave.com/ “Truth, Justice, & The Vampire Way” sequel to “Blessed Be” – vampire romance).

Blurb: CONFESSIONS OF A NYMPHO

In an effort to promote her books, erotic romance author Tatiana Reece decides it will increase her blog traffic if she starts a new blog in which she pretends that her personal life is as racy if not more racy than her novels. She calls it "Confessions of a Nympho" and she makes up some really hot, spicy stuff.
When tax season rolls around and she makes her annual visit to her accountant, Ace, the junior accountant handling her case—who has long been secretly in love with her—discovers her blog. Using an alias, Ace begins a torrid online affair with Tatiana that moves into a real world affair.
One problem. Ace disguises himself and when she discovers his true identity, she's furious.

Excerpt: * This excerpt is pretty tame but there are a couple of naughty words so be warned.

Tatiana leaned closer, licked her glossy lips, and smiled conspiratorially. “I hope you can find me a lot of big deductions this year.

Ace swallowed hard. He had something big for her all right, but it was inside his pants, swelling larger with every second. Embarrassed, he slid further under the desk to hide his source of discomfort. “We’ll see,” he said noncommittally, without any hint of emotion. “I’ll do my best.” He kicked himself for getting shy, not at all like the kick-ass romance heroes she lived for. How could he ever win a woman like her acting like this?

She dumped out the contents of both boxes onto his desk and sifted through them. “I went to several conferences this year and bought a new computer. Those hotel rooms are downright outrageous!”

Hotel rooms? He gulped. How he’d like to share a hotel room with her. He wondered if she went alone and took the receipt from her hands. When her fingers grazed his, shivers raced down his spine. Unable to stop himself, he asked, “Is this for single or double occupancy?”

She snatched the receipt from his hands, grazing his knuckles again. “Let me see. I get a roommate whenever I can, but a few times I went alone.”

His jealousy surged and he longed to ask the roommate’s name. Some of those nearly naked Tarzan-type cover models she’d had her pictures splashed with all over the romance magazines? Not that he’d ever admit to reading those or keeping track of her doings. He’d sooner cut out his tongue.

“How many? Conferences, I mean? Help me sort these into categories.” Or else they’d be there all night. On retrospect that might not be a bad idea…

She squinted at a computer printout in her hand. “What about websites? Aren’t they tax deductible?”

Loosening the tie that threatened to choke him, he nodded and tried to keep his voice steady. “Yes, of course.”

She leaned further forward and gazed deeply into his eyes. Her ample breasts strained against her t-shirt. The nipples budded against the flimsy cotton. “I mean, if I have more than one website? I just opened this new one, plus I have pages on some romance writers’ group pages.”
When he took the outstretched receipt from her outstretched fingers, her flowery writing on the back caught his eye, and he flipped it over. Reading it, his heart skipped several beats.

“Confessions of a Nympho” blog. It contained the website url, and he memorized it. Like he could forget a name like that? It was burned into his consciousness.

Confessions of a Nympho? His cock throbbed almost ripping open his zipper. His blood sizzled. He couldn’t wait to visit her blog and read her deepest, darkest fantasies. Or were they fantasies? Did she act them out? Was she really a nymphomaniac?

I hope you enjoyed the excerpt. I had fun writing it.

Hey Ashley,

The new book looks great! I'm looking forward to it!

You are a great writer Ashley! Whilst I know I have told you I am not into the explicitly erotic stuff, I am no prude either.

"The tie that threatened to choke him..." - great use of description.

Looks good. I haven't read the stories I have yet (poor ability to maintain / sustain concentration at the moment due to anaemia and it is VERY frustrating to a bookworm!) but when I do get around to it and to listening to you on interview, I'll let you know!

It's not that I'm not interested - just not up to it yet.
Well done on the book deals though.

Unknown said...

Thanks all. I hope you'll enjoy it.

And Cath, I hope you feel better soon. So sorry you're feeling poorly.

Cath said...

Doing much better these last two days Ashley. Feeling I've turned the corner.
But... treatment again tomorrow so will be 2 steps back to take 3 forward. Def worth it to move forward. I'm fairly confident now I'll be fine...!
Thanks for caring. :0)
