Betrayal. War. The sins of the fathers are visited on the sons and the
woman they love.
Tasha Salter is caught in a quandary: she wants to fall in love, but
past trauma keeps her from commitment. The only people she trusts are her
family, especially in this time of treason against the Kalquorian Empire. When
she and her three-year-old cousin are abducted by the revolt’s shadowy leader,
matters of the heart no longer apply. She finds herself in a battle for their survival.
Clan Falinset left Kalquor in self-imposed exile when their parents’ illegal
activities threatened their honor. Dramok Falinset, Imdiko Nur, and Nobek
Wekniz only want to be left alone to live their quiet lives. Yet the drumbeat
of war is sounding as traitorous forces prepare to attack Kalquor. Worse still,
the revolt’s leader wants his son Falinset at his side … and refuses to take no
for an answer.
A wild escape attempt throws Tasha and her young charge into the reluctant
care of Clan Falinset. With betrayal in their past and war in their future,
there is no reason to find love. Yet passion flares between those who should be
enemies, leading Clan Falinset and Tasha to realize that they are not on
opposite sides after all. Together they have the chance to heal.
Yet the sins of the fathers have come to rest on the shoulders of their
sons. Falinset must make an impossible choice: bow to his father’s blackmail and
turn traitor to the Empire or doom his clan by saving the young princess of
Kalquor and the woman he’s fallen in love with.
Contains BDSM situations including bondage, D/s, and multiple partners.
Tasha’s head
swirled with a cacophony of desire, need, and excitement as the Dramok’s mouth
and tongue fed on her. The weight of his forehead bore down on her pubic mound,
holding her down as his tongue swirled and lapped with ruthless enjoyment. His
lips, as soft as his jaw was strong, closed over her clit every now and again to
deliver a kiss that made her flush from head to toe with heat.
Falinset varied his feasting in so
many ways that Tasha didn’t know what he might do next. One moment his tongue
slid up and down her slit, parting the inner lips with a touch too delicate for
such a robust man. Then his tongue stabbed in and out of her entrance, diving
deep to make her kick weakly in the air. Back to sliding along the petals only
to catch them between his teeth for an instant of heady pain. Then his tongue
darting quickly over her clit, sending shocks through her stomach before
shoving his tongue in deep once more. A nip to her sensitive nub, followed up
by a careful kiss to soothe the hurt away and leave her moaning. And still more
enthralling touches until her head swam.
Was there any pleasure that man’s
mouth couldn’t deliver? She thought he must be a walking catalogue of oral
pleasure.
His tongue was slow and languorous
one moment, frantic the next. He growled against her flesh sometimes, vibrating
her there so that her whole body clenched. Indeed, it was as if each lick and
kiss encompassed every inch of her.
She hadn’t meant to disobey his
command that she not touch without permission. Yet she was suddenly aware of
her fingers curling in his hair, clutching thick strands to pull him even
harder against her. She froze in sudden fright as his face rose to stare at
her.
“You dare?” he asked softly, his
eyes dark pools of black rimmed with purple.
“Oh no,” she whimpered. “I didn’t
mean – I’m sorry—”
He rose to all fours, his stormy
expression on his thick features making him like a bear. A big, dangerous
grizzly bear. Tasha was too frightened to move.
“You will pay for your defiance of
my orders,” he said, his tone more terrifying for its quietness. “Turn over,
face on the cushion, ass in the air.”

Hey Tracy, your book has not released on Amazon Kindle yet.
ReplyDeleteIt's there. Just push the Amazon link where it says get it now. I had that same trouble getting her last book. I tried looking it up by going to her Amazon authors page and it wasn't there. But clicking that link above will take you right to it.
ReplyDeleteThat author's page takes forever to update. I've had books not show up there for a week after they've released. That's Amazon for you.
DeleteIt say´s title is not currently availble where the price and purchase info should be :(
ReplyDeleteI just checked all the links I provided. It's live at all of them. Maybe if you refresh your browser it will work?
DeleteThey have then not opened for international. I am in Iceland that must be the only viable explanation.
DeleteAh, okay. The book has only been released in the U.S. and Canada at this time. As I noted at the beginning of the post, the international books (and print versions) have not been released by the publisher yet. I will let international readers know as soon as I get a release date. Sorry for the confusion.
DeleteI am just looking for the kindle version, it is available on Barnes and Noble, I just do business with Amazon. I am so sad, was sooo looking forward to reading this book.
DeleteCan I ask why you don´t release the digital internationally? It makes not sense to me, I am a huge fan I am sure there are fans all over the world, we should not be left out. I know I know I sound like a brat, but I am just dissapointed.
DeleteThe international version is under contract to a separate publisher. They have those rights to Alien Hostage and are working hard to get it to readers outside North America. You are not being left out; it is only being delayed.
DeleteThe contract will allow more distributors outside the U.S. to carry my books. I explained everything in the April update, which you can find at http://tracystjohn.blogspot.com/2016/04/april-2016-update.html.
I'm sorry you're disappointed in the short term. But in the long term, this contract will serve my international readers much better than what's been in place in the past. I'm going to be more excited than you can imagine when Alien Hostage is released to the worldwide audience.
Stupid question: do you make money from the Amazon link? Usually I link from fictfact.com (wonderful site) because they *do* get a referral fee on purchases and I like to support my favorites...but if you get one, too...well, I like you better :-)
ReplyDeleteLOL, thanks! No, I don't make money from the link. Buy it any way that makes you happy. :D
DeleteTracy I still can't buy mine on amazon Kindle it's killing me.
ReplyDeleteI have to assume you're outside the U.S.? Totally Bound (the publisher that has the rights to Alien Hostage outside North America) hasn't announced their release date yet, but they are working hard to get it out there ASAP. I'll announce on my blog as soon as I have that release date. Thanks for your patience!
DeleteI'm from Puerto Rico
DeleteIf you usually get books from Amazon.com, you should be able to get it now at the link I listed above. I don't know what else to tell you.
DeleteFinished it on Saturday, some interesting surprised. I really liked it.
ReplyDeleteThanks! I'm so happy to hear it. :D
DeleteJust finished! Well deserved 5 star Amazon review! As always, well written & exciting.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll start the series over again while waiting for the next in the series.
Thank you so much for the review! Always appreciated. Hugs!
DeleteHow much delayed is delayed? If you ballpark it, is it more like a few days, a few weeks, a couple of months? I've been checking in every day but nothing happening is getting on my nerves so I'd rather not do that anymore :/ Also when you say release date, does that mean they'll set a date, hype for a few weeks and then release it? Or that release date is as soon as possible after legalities and whatever they are doing is done?
ReplyDeleteI'm guessing a few weeks. They're working on it as fast as possible, but they are a traditional publisher. That means a lot more hoops to jump through than when indie pubbing. The release date is the date they put it on sale.
