News, More News, And A Cover Reveal From Rhys Ford
As promised, MUCH news… about all the series…es. yeah whatever. That. Those. Heh. Those book things. AND A COVER REVEAL.
Further Adventures of the Vasquez and James Family—Fry Bread, Canoes, Otters, and the Freedom to Owl Dance
Hi, I’m Lou Sylvre and I’m back, taking up some space on Rhys Ford’s blog again. So, first order of business, thank you Rhys!
As many of you may know this is part of my blog tour celebrating the release of the latest Vasquez and James novel, Because of Jade, which was released by Dreamspinner Press on May 23rd. I’ve themed this blog tour, The Further Adventures of the Vasquez-James Family and you can find the first installment at Sinfully Sexy Book Reviews. I’ll get on with installment two a bit further on, here, but first, a word about a raffle.
In the spirit of celebration, I’m hosting some giveaways. This week, starting today, a brand new rafflecopter. As this is a WordPress blog, I can’t use Java Script, so click this link [http://www.rafflecopter.com/rafl/display/4059d63/] to get to the rafflecopter page and enter. You can stack up your chances by entering a number of ways, but one way is by making a comment on this post to answer this question: If you could spend a day with Sonny, Luki, Jade, or all three, who would you choose, and what would you do? Your answer can be as wild or sweet or mundane or dreamy as you want it to be, but creativity is encouraged. It doesn’t have to be long, a few words are plenty. Just surprise me!
For prizes, something a little different. 1st prize, an ebook copy of the new release, and an ebook of the collected Vasquez and James blogs—these “further adventures,” the road trip, gay romance university, character interviews, whatever. Of course I’ll have to wait until the current tour is done before I put it together, but it should be done around the end of June, and the only way to get the ebook is to win one. 2nd prize gets the collection, too, but with a copy of any earlier Vasquez and James book—winner’s choice.
Now for our story: Continue reading “Further Adventures of the Vasquez and James Family—Fry Bread, Canoes, Otters, and the Freedom to Owl Dance”

You are Invited to Caddy Rowland’s After Party Feb 25
Join Beau Coup Publishing as they presents a Caddy Rowland event on February 25, 2014 at 6pm-10pm EST / 3pm-7pm PST. There will be excerpts, giveaways and contests!
Please join us in the celebration! Caddy Rowland is the author of the popular historical fiction series, Gastien. Her latest release is a new genre for her, a book of contemporary drama, and suspense, House of Pleasure. Her newest book continues the There Was a House saga, an ongoing series featuring couples of differing sexualities contains House of Pleasure, House of Pain, House of Trickery, House of Shame.
I will be giving away a book from my backlist at the event OR an audio code for Sinner’s Gin or Whiskey and Wry if you already have the books. Watch for my post at the event and comment to enter!
About House of Pain
Episode 2 of There Was a House saga, a continuing story of revenge and redemption. The need for revenge boils in Phoenix’s veins. It’s been over a year since Antoine Chevalier abducted her, with the intent of prostituting her at Rêve, his illegal brothel in New Orleans. At least she has convinced him of her love and loyalty, becoming his lover and house manager instead of one of the whores. Still, she won’t rest until Antoine, his house, and his sickest customers are destroyed. Jamie has his own issues to worry about.
Dumped off and abandoned at Rêve by his homophobic father, he either has to allow himself to be prostituted or be sold off to be used on the streets of a city like New York, where he’d end up whoring anyway. If he and Phoenix can convince Antoine there’s money to be made by having him available, Jamie will do everything in his power to stay where it’s much safer.
He’ll make damn sure to play the role of flaming queen to the hilt. With his delicate Peter Pan looks, who would expect much else? There’s no need to show the real person behind the facade. Not until he knows for sure how deeply he can trust Phoenix.
Jamie is the wildcard, Phoenix is sure of it. Somehow he’ll be integral in taking Antoine down—and who would suspect such a sweet looking pretty boy?
Phoenix is right. Jamie’s unknown skills, her cunning, and their combined hatred would be unstoppable.
If only opportunity would present itself.
**Content Warning: This book is a drama meant for those over 18 and contains explicit scenes. Therefore, it contains adult themes and scenes which deal with a difficult topic.

Blurb for We Won’t Feel A Thing
Seventeen-year-old best friends Rachel and Riley are in forbidden love.
Their situation’s. . .complicated. And their timing couldn’t be worse—in just one month, he leaves for California and she starts college in New York. The absolute last thing they need is a reckless secret-love confession mucking up their perfect plans.
There’s only one logical option: scientific intervention.
Desperate for a quick fix, they sign up for WAVES, an experimental self-help program led by mysterious scientist David A. Kerning. He swears his Forbidden Love Module can turn passion back to safe platonic friendship in “six easy steps.”
But when you arm yourself with an untested program, side effects are unpredictable.
And sometimes when you fight love—love fights back.
About The Book Cover
I had this cover idea in my head pretty early on—the waves are a recurring image, and there’s also a Significant Umbrella in the story. I worked closely with my awesome cover designer, Mindy Dunn, who took the basic idea and made it beauteous. The book is whimsical and romantic (and hopefully funny), and I think the cover captures the tone really well. I hope you like it!
About the Author
J.C. Lillis lives in Baltimore with her patient family and a ragtag band of tropical fish, some of which will be dead by the time you read this. WE WON’T FEEL A THING is her second YA novel; she also wrote HOW TO REPAIR A MECHANICAL HEART, because she wanted to read a book about two sci-fi fanboys in love and there wasn’t one handy. She loves koi ponds, abandoned amusement parks, and peanut butter & banana sandwiches. She hates paper cuts, cabbage, and writing bios.
