Greetings readers!
I’m happy to be here today
to talk to you about my recent release, A Dragon’s Heart, A Demon’s Blood, a
paranormal – fantasy, erotic romance.
Most of the time, while I
write I listen to music, anything goes, from classical to doom metal to pop.
Due to that, most of my stories have their own soundtrack. A Dragon’s Heart, A Demon’s Blood is no exception. What has been different with this tale,
however, is the fact that I’ve used an entire CD as inspiration. It was almost
like “X” from the band called The 69
Eyes had been written for Adrian and Victoria.
I’m going to give you three
examples:
One.
“I’m ready” I was writing the
beginning of an erotic scene and had just typed the following sentence when
this song started playing.
“I’m ready,” she whispered, not sure if she
was or not but desiring it nonetheless.
I burst out laughing. Was it
a sign? The lyrics fit perfectly for what Victoria was telling Adrian… “I’m
ready baby I’m ready, I’m ready to share this dance with you…” Listen to it on Youtube
Two. “I love
the darkness in you”. This was the song. In my head it matched the
story from top to bottom. The chorus line said something along the lines of “I
like the darkness in you, so dirty, so blue…” It was the perfect fit for Adrian
even if the song spoke of a she. He’s dark, mysterious and that was something
both Victoria and I loved about him. Listen to it on Youtube
Three. “Love Runs Away”
“You don’t know until you
found it, love runs away…” This song was
so apt because of it’s fast paced guitar riffs and the lyrics.
He ran ahead, still half transformed,
searching for signs of Victoria. His demon was looking for the good and the
beautiful, the peaceful and the heart wrenching. It was searching for Victoria.
I could go through each and
every one of the songs from the album, plus a few more I used in the action and
dramatic scenes (for instance pieces from Lord of the Rings or The Dark Knight
Rises) but instead I’m going to allow you to discover your own soundtrack. Do
you like listening to music while reading?
Blurb:
He is a shadow in the dark, smelling your scent and sensing your fear...
Legendary bounty hunter Adrian Ormonde is no ordinary man. His life is filled with secrets and questions, blood and lust. His only concern for 150 years has been survival and discovering the truth behind his demon-dragon nature.
Until he meets his new assignment: Victoria Green.
Victoria Green has felt eyes watching her every move ever since she can remember. Then, Adrian appears. The eyes vanish but new dangers arise as she falls for the mysterious hunter. Cast into an ancient conflict between dragons and demons, Victoria must trust Adrian’s skill to be enough to protect her from both the outside world and that which grows within her.
Chance brought them together but will love and passion be enough to keep them joined? Or will the other forces at play in the dragon-demon worlds destroy them forever?

Glimpsing
at the tent in his jeans, she gasped.
“Already?”
In
an instant, he was upon her, his mouth devouring hers and making her legs weak.
“You
make me lose control, sweetheart, and I’ll be damned if that hasn’t happened in
years.”
His
hands slid down her waist over her hip and onto her thigh. Her breath hitched
as she searched Adrian’s dark eyes.
“Already,
you ask?” He sneered, his calloused fingers rising higher and caressing the
junction between her legs. His fingertips skimmed over her labia, finding her
wet entrance. His grin became smug. Adrian’s nostrils flared and his eyes
flashed red as he dipped two fingers inside her, wringing out a breath she’d
not been aware of holding.
“You’re
already wet for me, sweetheart.”
Bringing
his lips down to her, he stole another short kiss that had her whimpering
against him.
“Adrian.”
“Adrian.”
She
hugged him, bringing him closer and searching for his warm touch again. His
eyes scanned her face, his gaze softening.
“You
don’t want this, sweetheart.”
“Yes,
yes I do,” she replied pushing herself against his hand. His thumb brushed over
her clit. Victoria tensed. Her orgasm hung from a cliff, ready to fall.
“I
do want it.”
Tangling
her fingers in his hair, she pulled him to her mouth, teasing the seams with
her tongue. He groaned and she tasted him with longing. Sucking on his tongue, she made love to it as
he pleasured her with his fingers. Her body became a mass of over-sensitized
sparks as he coordinated his thumb with his seesawing digits. His hand on her
waist, held her in place as she humped against him.
“Come
on, sweetheart.”
His
husky baritone triggered her release. Victoria cried out, her pussy convulsing
in short waves, hot liquid dripping onto Adrian’s fingers. Her towel fell to a
heap on the floor as she lost control, the cool breeze doing little to soothe
her heated skin. She wanted more. She wanted all of him.
Victoria
moved to embrace him but he stepped away from her. Drawing his fingers into his
mouth, he briefly closed his eyes emitting a barely audible sound of pleasure.
When he opened them again, she gasped. Red sparks danced in his green depths.
“No,
Victoria. You don’t want this.”
Shaking
his head, he turned around and strode out of the room. Victoria stood rooted to
the spot, watching in shock as he left the apartment, the main door slamming
shut. Tears dampened her vision. Picking up the t-shirt he’d given her, she put
it on. More tears trailed down her cheeks as the smell of detergent mingled
with his scent. Taking a deep breath, she hastily brushed them away.
“Get
a grip, Vicky.”
Wrapping
the discarded towel around her wet hair, she strode to the kitchen, her stomach
growling. She didn’t think she’d find anything edible in the small kitchen, but
luckily Adrian kept a box of cereal and a few cartons of unopened milk. Digging into the meal, she shivered slightly
as an unsettling feeling grew in her chest. The watchful eyes were back.
