New release and great reviews

Many things have happened this past month. Not only have we had some wonderful reviews, but many of our stories, covers, and authors are up for Preditor/Editor 2008 Awards. You'll find links and listing below. Be sure to go and vote for your favorite editor, author, book cover, ebook, etc before January 15th.

This is a very long newsletter this time around. There is a lot to catch up on. I will try to keep this as short as possible. :)

We have more free shorts coming, so watch for those as well.

I Want That One by Paige Roberts

Lady Jane wants Will, for her slave, and she'll pay a high price to get him. Will dreams of a life under Jane's spike heels, but in the future city-state of New York, it's illegal to enslave a free man. Jane, once a notorious hacker, now a network security consultant, isn't used to letting a little thing like the law keep her from getting what she wants. When a bound and naked Will is delivered to her kitchen door, she takes great pleasure in using leather cat and cuffs and cruel penetrating sex games to tame him. But Will must give up everything to prove his loyalty to her before he can take his rightful place forever kneeling at her perfect feet.

Publisher's Note:

This book is designed to portray BDSM lifestyle as true to reality as possible. As such, it is not only a good introduction for those who are unfamiliar with it, but realistic for those who are BDSM lifestylers. That being said, if you are not familiar with BDSM and/or have enjoyed reading light bondage material only, please read the foreword. This will give you insight into the relationships and mindsets of the characters that inhabit the pages of this book. We also recommend that you read each story in its entirety with an open mind. We suggest this as some of the stories are light bondage, but others are not. This anthology is not for the faint of heart, so please keep this in mind when purchasing. None of our submission guidelines or house rules have been broken.
