PRE-ORDER: The Business Engagement by Kasi Blake

 The Business Engagement

Release Date: May 22, 2021


As a former Harlequin author, Kasi Blake knows romance. She has always added at least some to her books, even to her YA Urban Fantasy and Paranormal Mysteries, from forbidden love to love that was meant to be. Now, she has published her first Contemporary Romance. If you enjoy a little steam in your romance, you will not want to miss The Business Engagement. 



Blurb: One fake engagement can save two reputations... if they can keep their hands off each other. 

When claustrophobic Anna gets trapped in an elevator with hunky Skylar, the last thing she expects is to exit an engaged woman. But Skylar insists tongues will stop wagging when people realize she is marrying him and not sleeping with her boss.

Skylar’s father (her boss) invites her to spend Thanksgiving weekend with his entire family in Vermont, and he won’t take no for an answer. She has no clue how she will get through four days under the same roof with the sexy, arrogant Skylar. Then she discovers they expect her to share a room with her fiancé. Now what?

With her job on the line, will she also be willing to risk her heart?

Pre-order Special .99 cents. Limited Time. Price goes up to $3.99 after the release date.

AMAZON : Kasi Blake Website


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Excerpt:

The door shut before she could get her bearings, and the elevator began to descend. That was when she noticed the other occupant, the last person she wanted to be trapped in an elevator with: Griffin’s son.

Skylar gave her the expected customary nod to acknowledge her existence.

Pursing her lips together, she returned the gesture. She didn’t see any reason to pretend they liked each other. Three years ago when she’d joined the firm he had almost destroyed her career within a week. Stubborn and bad-tempered, Skylar had treated her like his personal gopher rather than a colleague with a law degree. Things only got worse when his father put them on the same trial. She’d been second chair, of course, but Skylar wouldn’t listen to a word she said. Every time she opened her mouth he cut her off. Then while she was considering going to his father about the situation, Skylar complained to the man about her. He had almost gotten her fired. She’d been pulled off the trial and put on a case that a monkey could have won.

Since then she’d avoided him like her life depended on it.

She had a second reason to steer clear of him as well, an embarrassing reason. She hated to admit it even to herself, but Skylar Griffin oozed sex appeal. Her skin heated and her lower region pulsated every time she looked at him. Stylishly cropped hair the color of warm sand and eyes crystal blue like the Caribbean Sea reminded her of a much-needed tropical vacation. He worked as hard as she did and always seemed to be in his office. Yet, the deceitful golden brown skin would convince anyone he spent his days on the beach instead of sitting behind a desk. Not to mention, he had a surfer’s body with lean muscle and natural agility.

☠️☠️☠️ EXCERPT: AMERICAN HANDMAIDENS by P Mattern ☠️☠️☠️





Welcome back to Black Words-White Pages!! Today we are sharing a never before seen sneak peek excerpt to P Mattern's soon to release story, American Handmaidens!!! So scroll down and check it out!!


AMERICAN HANDMAIDENS
by P Mattern
Published by CHBB Publishing
Cover Artist: Rue Volley
Release Day: 11.19.2020




CHAPTER ONE-BOXING DAY

I am excited. My father, a tall, handsome WWII vet who returned home to land a government job is taking his old boxing gloves out of the top of the hall closet.

He tells my sister and I that he used to box in the army, and did pretty well at it. I am excited because in the post war era boxing is on TV every Friday and it looks like fun, dancing around and throwing punches as well as blocking them.

He gets down the slightly dusty boxes and proceeds to lace up the smaller of the pair on me. I feel powerful just having the leather gloves hanging from my spindly arms.

I am six years old, my younger sister Lyn is three and a half, and looks on with wide cornflower blue eyes. She is beautiful, like a seraphim, with perfect blonde corkscrew curls and dimples.

I am the plain sister, the one strangers never notice. My grandmother on my mother’s side notices this, takes me aside, and tells me not to worry because I am’ distinguished looking.’

My father has finished lacing his own gloves on, and he gives my sister a bell to ring to signal the first round as we square off in opposite corners of the living room.

My entire body thrums with excitement. This is an unprecedented special event. I  am particularly impressed by the fact that my father makes it clear that he WANTS me to take a shot at him and land some punches.

I am thinking this is very cool.

My father has taken off his shirt. He is a mechanical engineer and works on huge machines at the Bureau of Engraving and Printing in Washington D.C. He is very muscular, with well developed biceps and pecs, and he looks excited too as he gives my sister a nod to ring the bell for the first round.

I run to the center, swinging haphazardly for all I am worth. My father laughs and easily blocks my punches. I laugh too.

And then he moves in more closely and starts punching me, and I stop laughing.

His first punch catches me in the jaw and knocks my head back. I am startled, and drop my gloves so that his next punch also lands cleanly on my forehead.

I feel dizzy. He doesn’t stop but begins punching me in the chest and stomach. The stomach punch knocks the breath out of me, and I fall backwards on my rear end on the carpet.

I hear my sister scream as I shake my head. Just like in the cartoons, I think I see rotating circles with birdies flying around. I look up through my disoriented haze and see that my sister has jumped up on my father’s back, and she is still screaming.

“STOP! STOP DADDY!YOU’RE KILLING HER!”

My father looks irritated. He is sweating and breathing very heavily. With a disgusted look on his face, he jerks me to my feet and removes my gloves, and as he does that he looks me in the eye.

“Remember this,” he says, ”Remember that you better always do as I say because you can never beat me. Do you understand me Trish?”

I nod, humiliated. I never landed one punch. I believe him.



WOW, that a powerful excerpt and has made me curious to read more!! Let us know in the comments about how excited you are for this release!! It releases on 11.19.2020!!

🧹🧹🧹 AUTHOR Q&A: CD GORRI & P MATTERN 🧹🧹🧹

 

Welcome back to Black Words-White Pages!! This week, we are going to get to know these two authors a little bit by doing an Author Q&A!! So without further adieu, let's get to it!!




AUTHOR Q&A

WHAT WENT INTO YOUR DECISION TO WRITE G'WITCHES?

CD: This is actually my first time co-writing and when Patricia had so graciously made the suggestion I didn’t quite know how it would pan out. To say I am ecstatic is no exaggeration. She is such a lovely and talented author, a wonderful friend, and she could not have made this a more enjoyable experience.  After I designed the cover, I just fell in love with the idea and am so grateful she picked me! LOL.

P: As far as I remember I asked her for a cover for a title I was playing with because she is such a multi-talented goddess-when I saw it it was so over the top adorable I was blown away, and I was like,"Aren't you the teeniest bit tempted to write this with me?" because she is a kick*ss writer as well!


WHAT CHARACTERS ARE YOUR FAVORITES?

CD: I adore the sisters of course, but I have a soft spot for Melvin. He is just so brilliant and adorably loyal. He is my favorite, I confess.

P: I love the Fairchild witches but Aggie makes me laugh because she lives for the moment and I fell in love with the witches little brother Melvin, named by CD Gorri, instantly because he is such a surprising character.



WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE HALLOWEEN MEMORY?

CD: I suppose I have two because as a kid I would just love dressing up and attending the parade my hometown would hold on the main street every year, afterwards my grammar school would have the best Halloween dance and it was just the most fun.


As an adult, I truly love making or shopping for my kids’ costumes and taking them trick-or-treating with friends, but the best part is coming home for some Hocus Pocus, followed by some old school scares like Nightmare on Elm Street and Friday the 13th.


P: My sister and I ages 4 and 7 wearing black yarn wigs, flip flops and homemade kimonos dressed as Geishas for Halloween-like we could fool anyone with our blue eyes and blonde hair poking out!



DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN 3 WORDS


CD: Honest. Diligent. Dreamer.


P: Eager, Canny, Kind



DO YOU HAVE ANY WIP'S THAT YOU WOULD LIKE TO SHARE WITH US?


CD: I always have several going on with once, but I really can’t wait for Dragon Shield which is coming out in January and is book 2 in my Guardians of Chaos series published with CHBB’s Hot Ink Press. It is on pre-order now, so don’t forget to reserve your copy today and start 2021 on a happy note! 😉


P: How long have you got?

"American Handmaidens" for CHBB coming in November 2020
"HALO", book 8 of FUll Moon Series with Lynne Ligocki Gauthier coming in December
A fun Christmas Novella. "Phucky the ELf Plays Matchmaker' for Purely Paranormal Pleasures coming along too!

Wow, sounds like both of you have some awesome projects coming and I can't wait to read them!! Thank you both for stopping by to talk to me!!!

CD: Thank you!!

P: Thanks so much for interviewing us!

🧹🧹🧹 EXCERPT: G'WITCHES by CD GORRI & P MATTERN

 


Welcome back to Black Words-White Pages!! This week, we are sharing an excerpt from CD Gorri & P Mattern's up coming release, G'WITCHES. Let's check it out!!


G'WITCHES

by CD GORRI & P MATTERN

Release Day: 10.30.2020




EXCERPT

The three Fairchild Witch triplets, Olivia, Esme and Agatha were huddled together in Aggie’s room, sitting on her giant four poster bed and all staring at the crystal orb commanding their rapt attention.


“I SWORE I would never do this again,” Esme said in a slightly peeved tone, “You remember what happened LAST time, don’t you?”


“HUSH!” Olivia commanded, staring at the prismatic light dancing in the center of the crystal that appeared to be growing larger, “Aggie was in charge last time! This time I am! No mess ups, I promise!”


“Not to mention that Morphic Corporeal Magic is the hardest discipline in Spell Casting,” Aggie reminded her mildly, refusing to take offense, “With the possible exception of Global Volcanic Eruptions and Pandemics! I just let the prism get too big before I started casting! And we got you back to normal in no time!’


“ANY TIME when you are sitting there with two boobs so HUGE you’d need a wheelbarrow to carry them in is too much time entirely!” Esme fussed. 


“Well, now we know better,” Olivia said in a soothing voice, “And so we will DO better.”


“Who wants to go first?”


Esme sighed, ”I will! But I’m NOT going for the full Dolly Parton or even Porn Star-I just want a D cup. Nice and round if you please, like hot air balloons!”


“You got it!” Olivia told her. Whipping out her wand she spoke a short incantation as she pointed the tip toward the prism captured in the crystal.


Esme gave a startled sound as the front of her tank top seemed to fill out instantaneously.


“OH, I FLOVE THEM!” she shrieked, grabbing a newly enhanced breast in each hand, “But do you think they’re too much?”


“ You mean will they attract attention? The WRONG kind, from the opposite sex?…Oh Gee I HOPE so!” Olivia said, giggling, “I mean isn’t that the POINT?”


“Okay now me, ME!” Aggie said.


Olivia’s lovely face took on a look of rapt attention as she again focused on the revolving prism captured within the crystal orb.


“LOVELY PRISM ARTISROUCHE

GRANT MY SISTER HER FLESHLY WISH”


Aggie gasped involuntarily as her breasts exploded into DD cups and the bra she was wearing ripped asunder in the middle. When the material in the blouse she was wearing made a stretching sound she quickly flung it off over her head and gazed down stupefied at her new bosoms.


Olivia was horrified, and waited for Aggie, who was frozen motionless staring at her new acquisitions with eyes like saucers, to start screaming.


Instead she began giggling, covering her breasts with her arms as she went off into gales of laughter.

“OH MY GOD LOOK AT THESE!” she said,” WOW! JUST WHAT I WANTED ! I always wondered what it would be like to have hooters like these! Thanks Sissy, I FLOVE them!”


Olivia looked over at Esme , who also had a look of surprise on her face.


“Is THAT what you really wanted?” she questioned Agatha, “I mean they are VERY noticeable! If Witchcraft doesn’t work out for you, you can always try to break into the adult entertainment industry! But…are you sure you didn’t want them a teensy bit, er, less outstanding?”


“No they are perfect!” Aggie said, jumping up, “Only none of my bras will fit and I’ll be reduced to wearing only my stretchiest sweaters in the meantime. What do you think the boys will do? Do you think Harlon Piercewick will notice ?”

Olivia found herself a bit envious. Before all the breast augmentation spell casting she had had at least a double cup size on her sisters. 


Now she looked, well certainly not flat chested by any means, but smaller than the other two. Nevertheless she resisted a temptation to move her own tatas up another cup size.


Out of all three triplets, she was the most patient, composed and sensible one. Magic was glorious (and she was good at it), but could also be seductive and addictive, and SOMEONE had to keep her wits about her!

A TRIPLE MAGICAL THREAT!

The Fairchild triplets Olivia, Esme and Agatha have earned a scholarship to the MAGNIFICO FINISHING SCHOOL FOR MAGICAL ARTS, but these witches keep havin’ glitches!

Hidden from street view yet occupying several acres of prime real estate in the heart of Manhattan, a powerful centuries old spell keeps the towering silver spires and majestic structure from being viewed by “ORDS” aka “Ordinarius “ -the non-magical population.

Determined to win high honors, they have a history of mixing up spells with sometimes hilarious and sometimes dangerous results!

On their best behavior, and with their mutually shared and adored BFF Audra, and her brother Melvin, they plan to please Uncle Rufus, their doting Guardian, and achieve the kind of excellence in the Magic Arts that would have made their parents proud!

Friendly feuding and frolicking abound in this tale of magical mischief!
