******************************

 

In addition to a Kindle copy in the Grand Prize,

Lisa Renee Jones is also donating Kindle copies to 5 Runner-ups!

 

Lisa Renee Jones:    a contemporary and paranormal erotica romance author, Jones' suspense truly sizzles with an energy similar to FBI tales with a twist

Prize:     Kindle copy of The Master Undone to Winner and 5 Runner-ups

 

Mark Compton is the Master of his universe, whether its in the art world or in his club.  Women would kill to be with him. Just his presence is enough to lead women and men to cede their control over to him.  But to be the one who causes Him to lose His infamous control??  That's hot. 

 

The Master Undone is part of The Inside Out series, which is being developed for TV by STARZ. It follows the journey of Mark Compton, one of the major characters in If I Were You, Being Me, and Revealing Us.  While the initial mystery may be solved, it is far from being resolved.  Life continues and Mark faces a very  unsure future. Its sequel My Hunger releases July 7th. 

 

The other major character is Chris Merit, whose story splinters off in His Secrets and then No In Between (releasing Aug. 19).  In torn jeans and riding a motorcycle, Chris is no less of a Dom.  Both Doms have pasts that have left their scars on each man's actions.  The desire to heal him and make him whole adds to his appeal, making the intimate scenes even hotter.

Prize:   winner's choice of 3 ebooks from Tara Rose's backlist

 

Another author that gives you plenty of options to choose from is Tara Rose.  I don't know what they put in the water in Indiana and Colorado--but all her male characters are HOT!  I can never pick a favorite one because the answer if always, which book did I finish last.  Each of Tara's men are unique and I think that adds to the HAWT factor:  something unique and special to just that one man.  The one thing you can't get from anyone else and have to have.  In her new release Chasing Their Racy Destiny, thunder and lightning bring them together for a night of passion.

It's that zing of electricity, where lightning races through you with just the gentlest touch, that heats you up with the right man.   A feeling that becomes addictive, driving you to be with him.  As Emmy finds with Nathaniel, She couldn’t deny the electricity between them, the utter animal magnetism She felt for him.  She draws him into her world so she can keep him.  And in book 3 Not Quite Juliet, sparks fly between Morgan and Nick D., turning their one-night fling into something more serious.

Sandrine Gasq Dion:  author of the Assassin-Shifter series and Men of Manhattan series

Prize:  ebook of winner's choice from her backlist.

Ok, I have been in love with this series for a long time, but I have to admit it was this cover that caught my eye.  I quickly read all 6 books to get to this one. {Don't laugh--you've done it too!}  Sandrine's men are hardcore military assassins, but she lets us see behind that wall into the heart and conscious of the man.  What more could you want to make you melt??

******************************

Susan Stoker:   Her first series, Beyond Reality, will be a trilogy, with all three books in the series having HEAs

Prize:   (kindle ecopy) Outback Hearts

Aye, Mate, the Outback.....

Where men talk with accents that make your womb do a flip-flop and who carry incredibly long knives, the better to protect and feed you with.  Or make quick work of those pesky clothes when you get overheated.  Some of my favorite fictional boyfriends are Aussies (and some of my imaginary ones, too {wink}).

Prize:   eBooks of  Weekend Surrender and Watchful Sin

 Of course, the Strong, Silent type works for me, too.  Especially a tall cowboy, who knows how to handle a horse and some rope.  He tips that hat just enough to see his eyes, while his wide shoulders and sure stance lets you know his politeness ends in the bedroom.  And yet, he still makes sure you come first.  And Lori King brings us 4 of these hot males into the prize basket.  They're so hot, the sky in the cover is already on fire!

Alicia Sparks:  paranormal romance author of several series (Primitive, Dragon's Law, and Memphis Mayhem)  and stand-alone titles.

Prize: Primitive Fix (kindle copy)

Not all hot male characters are human, which is why we don't call this the hottest man contest.  Sometimes you need that something extra, that primitive animal side to come out and claim you.  Me?  I'm partial to tigers and bears, but have been known to enjoy the company of few wolves.  And as Alicia Sparks reminds us, who knows what lurks in the forests--it could be your mate.
