Hello and Welcome to The Dungeon!  I’m so happy to have you here visiting and sharing your newest work.  Don’t mind the noise from the prison… err guests, they get noisy during their…treatments..lol. Let me clear a spot so you can have a seat.  Would you like some refreshments before you get started?
 Thanks so much for having me today! Hmm…what should I have to drink? Do any of these hot paranormal bartenders come with the drinks, LOL?


lol...why yes they do...be careful of Delvin's though.....Tell us a little bit about your new work.
My latest story,His Kind of Woman, was released in June. It’s a romance featuring a transgender heroine.


What first sparked the story idea?
Venetia first appeared as a supporting character in my BDSM romance, Uncollared. She was working as a bartender in a BDSM club to earn extra money for her gender reassignment surgery. I liked her right away and knew that I wanted to write her story as soon as the right hero appeared.


Who is the character that in your opinion everyone is going to fall in love with?
I think everyone will love Venetia—she’s a brave, smart, funny woman who’s faced adversity and determined to go ahead with her gender reassignment in spite of losing friends and loved ones.  But I also think people will love Roy, the story’s hero. He and Venetia are a bit of an odd couple—he’s a truck driver and a former bully. But he’s also a man who’s changed over time and is much more aware than others might give him credit for. As open minded as he’s become, he’s still taken aback to realize he’s fallen for a trans woman.


I have to ask, what are the hardest scenes for you to write?
Strangely enough for an erotic romance writer, sex scenes are tough for me. I want to make them hot, but also sweet enough to be romantic. And I never want to seem to repeat myself.


How would you rate the sex scenes throughout the series?
I hope readers will find them hot and sexy, but also be touched by the love between the main characters. It’s strictly m/f in this story, no menage or kink. (Sorry, fans of the kinkier stuff.J)


Are there any of these in your books?  (Hands one of the toy boxes on the right which is filled with sex toys, whips, body creams, lotions, lubs…and whatever else you can imagine J)
LOL, sex toys are involved in Uncollared and also make an appearance in my FFM menage romance His and Hers and Hers. Say, some of these look very interesting. Any chance I can take a few home and try them out?


We might just be able to work something out...lol   How many books do you see in this series?
At the moment, I don’t have any definite plans, but I would like to write a few more stories featuring trans heroes/heroines. Maybe some of Venetia’s friends from her support group will have their own stories.


Are any of your characters reflective of you?
I guess I’ll give the stock answer and say that there’s an element of me in most of my characters, although they’re smarter, wealthier and better looking than I am, LOL!


Tell us about some of your other works.
I mentioned Uncollared earlier. That’s a BDSM themed m/f romance. Another story with that same publisher, Loose Id, is an f/f/m menage romance, His and Hers and Hers. I have three novels in The Man series published with The Wild Rose Press: One Good Man, Take This Man, and Her Perfect Man. These are all m/f erotic romances. A short story, Irresistible Impulse, features a lesbian couple who appear as secondary characters in the series.

I’m so happy you have made this a stop.  Would you like a tour of the…err…levels?  J I can introduce you to the “guests”, if you just hand me that box back.
Aww, do I have to give it back? LOL

Lol..just for a bit...Let’s get you suited up:
Wine, mixed drink, or straight up?
Love my vino, but I’ll never say no to a Lemon Drop Martini, either.

Leather straps or chains?
Chains, please. Gold ones, of course. ;-)

Cat-o-nine, braided leather, or chain length whip? Collar and Leash or Adornment?
Adornment, dahling, always.

Leather studded bodysuit or corset top?
Definitely corset. At my age I need help getting everything squeezed in and pushed up.

Fishnets or garter-belt?
Garter belt is more demure, don’t you think?

Leather pants, mini, or a long skirt slitted up both sides?
Long skirt with a slit will give everyone a chance to peek at the garter belt.

Sexy...Lace up boots (with or without heels) or come F*** me high heels?
Ball gag, manacles, or blindfold?
 Better go with the boots—I might break my neck in the high heels. And are the manacles jewel encrusted?


I do believe I have a pair of those!!  The rack or the whipping post?
Which one will show me to the best advantage, LOL?


I'd go with the rack..lol..Candle wax or clamps
Ouchy, ouchy. Candle wax, I guess.


Blonde, red-head, Brunette, or Supernatural J?
One of each, please!

My kind of girl!!  While I take Nona on a trial run through my goods...I mean tour of my dungeon, lets take a look at her book:


Blurb:
When Roy Girard went looking for Victor Varrano, he never expected a woman to answer the door. He soon discovers that Victor is now Venetia. Roy's startled, but even more surprised by his attraction to her. As they spend time together, he doesn't want to let her go. But she's sure to dump him when she learns his secret. 
Venetia's falling hard and fast for Roy. But when she learns that his brother was the bully who tormented her in high school, she's shattered. She can't wrap her head around the fact that the man who made such amazing love to her could so completely betray her trust.

Excerpt:
He was just being polite, making sure she made it safely to her door, checking to see she wouldn’t dissolve into a puddle of goo after the scene in the cafĂ©. But she had other ideas.
At her door, she took the initiative and kissed him, crushing her breasts to him and practically grinding her lips against his. When she pulled back, she was gasping. “Do you want me?”
He licked his lips, and his eyes narrowed as he peered at her. She read his expression—Where is this coming from?—and knew he wanted to be a gentleman. He didn’t want to take advantage of her in a vulnerable state. The hell with that.
“Do you want me, Roy? Tell me the truth. Because I want you. Right now.” He didn’t need to answer because she felt his hard-on prod her pelvis. She kissed him again and holding on to his belt, pulled him inside her apartment.
After tossing her sweater and purse on the sofa, she turned toward Roy. He was as still and substantial as a mountain, as real, as dependable. She needed his sturdiness now, needed his strength. “You do want me, don’t you? But you’ve been afraid.”
He flushed like a boy being caught with his father’s Playboy.
“It’s all right,” she told him as she began to unbutton her blouse. “I understand. You’re worried.” She slowly undid the rest of the buttons until the front of the blouse fell open. “I say I’m a woman, but I used to have a man’s body. And you wonder—am I really truly who I say I am?” She slipped off the blouse and stood before him in her pale blue bra.
The heat of his gaze seared her as he stared at her breasts. Her nipples prickled. She unsnapped the front closure of her bra and let the straps slide down her arms. Her dark brown nipples jutted straight out at him, needing him to touch them, kiss them. Roy’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and Venetia could swear she heard him swallow hard.
She stood proudly for a moment to let him look at her. She had suffered for this body, not just physically, but emotionally, financially, in every way imaginable. Let her enjoy it now; let him enjoy it too. She basked in his admiration, but as the heat and urgency grew between her legs, Venetia knew it would not be enough.
She kicked off her pumps and shimmied out of her jeans. Now she wore only her lacy blue panties. She loved these panties, loved how sexy and feminine they made her feel, and now she saw how Roy loved them too.
The enormity of the step she was about to take suddenly hit her. Though she tried to steady it, her voice vibrated with fear as she spoke again. No backing down now, no running away. She slipped her thumb into the waistband of her panties. “There won’t be any surprises when I take these off,” she assured him. “My outside matches my inside now. I’m completely a woman in every way.”
As she began to pull the panties down, he stopped her. “Wait.”
She froze and her chest squeezed in disappointment. He didn’t want her?
He approached her, indicating the panties. “I want to do that.”

Sebrina said...

Most appealing part? No matter how much I love to see a nice chest and abs....I still have to say a man's back is my favorite. But don't forget, the back leads to a few more lovely parts....ass in one direction and shoulders which leads to arms in another direction! ;)
Thanks so much

strawberryrose said...

I well always be drawn to his eyes first. abs and butt are tied for second. Depending on what direction he is standing.

His eyes, because they are expressive, emotional, and a mirror of the soul. Next would be abs and a great butt in a pair of jeans.

The eyes & then EVERYTHING else.

Unknown said...

The eyes and the lips of a man. The eyes because they say so much without even a word. The lips because I love to kiss and if they ain't soft and full then it ain't happening.

Unknown said...

As I said on someone else's blog post, there is nothing better on a man than a nice tight bum. Eyes and smile catch my attention first, but a gorgeous bum will get me every time. ;)

John Quinlan is gorgeous...thanks for those drool-worthy pics. And the interview was fun, too. Thanks!
