I’m lucky enough to still be visiting with Lena and her family, but will be going home soon. We had the best time. Her family is so sweet to welcome me into their home and I love them all. We visited Disney, spent a whole day at the spa, saw some loyal readers and generally had a great time. Lena totally kicked my butt on movie trivia. I bow to her gloriousness. We got some work done, which was especially great. Read on below for more of those details. I had a wonderful birthday and I’m now officially the big 4-0. They say 40 is the new 30. I just want to know who they are. LOL. I hope everyone has a safe Halloween and gets all the treats they desire. ~Liz
I just finished my edits on Veterans: Through the Fire, releasing at Loose Id in November. This is an interracial wounded hero story. More on the specifics next month. Lena and I also just finished edits on Nichelle’s story, Body and Soul. We don’t have a release date yet, but we’re keeping our fingers crossed for some time this year or early next year. We also just started, like literally a few pages only, the third story in the Werewolf series, Guardian of Moonlight. No other news yet on this, but stay tuned. I love J.R. Ward’s Brotherhood series and this guy is hot, hot, hot!
My winner from my July contest was Melissa L. Congratulations! For October, send an email to msliz@lizandrews.net and tell me what you are dressing up as for Halloween. I still haven’t decided myself. LOL. Good Luck!
An Excerpt From: Hankie Pankie Copyright © LIZ ANDREWS, 2007 All Rights Reserved, Ellora's Cave Publishing, Inc. “So you want to tell me where we are and what we’re doing here?” Amie blinked up at Eric, unwilling to admit what a colossal fool she’d been. Either he had no idea what was going on or she’d blundered into something he didn’t want to reveal to her. Nevertheless, perhaps she could salvage some of her pride and get them out of there before this went any further. “Um, this was a huge mistake. Let’s just go.” The large doors swung open, revealing a woman dressed in a leather corset and skintight black pants. She looked like Halle Berry in Catwoman. “Welcome to the Hankie Pankie Halloween Event.” She handed them a small plastic jack-o-lantern and then sweeping her hands wide, ushered them into the foyer. “Coats can be left in the room off to your right and you are welcome to begin exploring any and all rooms. This is a night to make your fantasies come true.” Eric raised his eyebrows slightly, but said nothing. Instead he grasped her hand and tugged her into the coat room. Fishing around in the jack-o-lantern, Eric chuckled and Amie’s eyes widened as he pulled out a strip of condoms and wagged them in front of her face. “I think there must be a story here.” “Do you really have no idea what the party is?” Amie could hear her voice crack as she spoke. The embarrassment of having to explain this was beyond her worst nightmare. “None, but I’m really interested in why we need condoms and –“ poking around the plastic pumpkin he pulled out a small bottle, “--lickable strawberry lube to make our fantasies come true.” Burying her face in her hands, Amie took a couple of deep breaths. “It’s a fetish party.” “A what?” She’d have to face him sometime and there was no time like the present. Raising her head, Amie stared at Eric’s shocked expression. “A fetish party. You know, bondage and domination and … stuff.” “Stuff?” “I told you this was a mistake. Can we please just go?” Amie tugged on his hand, but Eric wasn’t budging. In fact, his previous shock had turned to speculation. “I didn’t know you were into this.” “I’m not. I thought you were.” It was a good thing the coat room was dim since Amie knew her face must be flaming at this point. “Why would you think I was into dominance and bondage?” “I found the website for this party on your computer. What else was I supposed to think?” “My computer?” “Yes, your computer. Do you remember when I asked to use it last week?” At Eric’s nod she continued. “I was going to look up haunted houses, but when I started to type, the website for this party popped up.” “And you thought I was planning for us to attend?” “I wasn’t sure what I thought at first. Shock mostly, I guess. I couldn’t believe you were into this stuff.” “I’m not.” Eric’s insistence rang true. “Well, I didn’t know that. But when I explored the site and saw there was a party coming up I thought maybe we could check it out together.”
