GUEST POST: LILY HARLEM author of BAD IDEA


Bad Idea by Lily Harlem



Love hot M/M biker stories with guys who are rough, tough and determined to get what they want? If so check out Lily Harlem’s new BDSM tale about a couple who are forced to keep their love and lust secret, but when they do get together, things become explosive.



Back cover information



Bad ideas can sometimes be the best!



Roughneck Riders are not an MC club you mess with, least of all their rough and tough gang leader Heavy. But Heavy has a secret that has to be kept, no matter what—his heart belongs to a man. It shouldn’t. He’s supposed to be into women, like the other guys in the club. Junk is just too cute to resist, though. Add in his delectable body, his sweet submission and his willingness to accept Heavy’s sadism, and the couple are a perfect match.



Junk’s a probie, proving his worth to the club and demonstrating his mechanical know-how. He’s lived on the edge for a long time, flitting from one place to the next. But now that he’s settling in as a Roughneck, life is looking up. Not least because he’s in love—soul-eating, cock-thickening obsessive love. He can’t tell anyone about his desire for Heavy, but what he can do is push his lover’s buttons, all day, in full view of everyone, until he’s damned sure the night will bring a whole host of sinful delights and wicked punishments that will leave him marked, bruised and most of all, wholly satisfied.



Publisher's Note: This book has previously been released as part of the His Rules anthology from Pride Publishing.

NEWS and REVIEW ROUND UP




Closer by Morning is out there now and I must admit I’ve been overwhelmed by the response it’s received. The reviews have exceeded all of my expectations. Just check out what they had to say at Joyfully Jay and Diverse Reader.



 I’ve also been out and about doing guest blogs this week.  In case you missed them here are the direct links:





 So it’s been quite a week. Fantastic in every way.

Now Closer by Morning is out, its time to move on with future projects. Next up is a short story Gods Of Vengeance. This will feature in a upcoming anthology of MM military themed stories from Pride Publishing. The collection is scheduled for publication in November, followed by the ebook release as a standalone title next Spring.

I’m also writing a romantic trilogy. I’m a third of the way into writing the second book so it’s too early to talk about release dates or details but I’m having a great time writing it.

Next week I’m going to host my first guest blog post. Lily Harlem will be joining me on 16th August to talk about her new book Bad Idea. So do come back to hear all about it. You won’t regret it.

CLOSER BY MORNING RELEASE AND BLOG TOUR

Next week sees the general release of Closer by Morning. It’s been exclusively on sale with Pride Publishing for the last month but as of 9th August it’s going to be EVERYWHERE. That’s so exciting. You’ll find it at all of the usual places as an ebook and paperback.  Unlike the novel I’m not going to be everywhere but I am embarking on a small blog tour – my first ever. I’ll be chatting about the book and offering free giveaways. Please drop by and follow me when you can.

Tour dates:

9th August: http://lmbrownauthor.wordpress.com
9th August: http://joyfullyjay.com
10th August: http://lilyharlem.blogspot.com

Massive thanks LM Brown, Joyfully Jay and Lily Harlem for hosting me on their sites.

It’s an exciting time. I’m currently working hard on my next novel and have placed another story with Pride Publishing. That’s due for publication in November so I’ll provide more information nearer the time.

It hasn’t all been work and promotion. I managed to grab a few days off with my husband last week. We have a lovely weekend in London and saw The Pet Shop Boys at the Royal Opera House and the Proms at the Royal Albert Hall. That was simply amazing. We also spent a fantastic day at the North Yorkshire sea side and took a boat trip along the coast.

I hope you all enjoy what’s left of the summer. Grab yourself a great read and enjoy.
