Are you feeling naughty?
"Naughty in Leather": Blurb
A gang is shoplifting from the mall and
this day they rob Rhonda’s store, Luxurious Leatherwork. When Scott and Ty come
to the store and ask her out to dinner yet again, this time she says yes. She’s
decided she wants to see if there’s potential for a three-way relationship.
Dinner is wonderful, and sex with the two men even better.
A few days later the gang attacks the
jeweler’s window with metal bars. Ty and Scott are terrified for Rhonda and
determined to look after her. The men take her home and love her that night,
wanting her to know how deeply they care for her.
Ty is offered a promotion at work, but it
involves some travel and moving to a new apartment. He’s worried that it will
ruin their new relationship, and the gang situation is still not solved.
Can a relationship such as theirs survive?
Story Excerpt
Rhonda turned to look at the doorway when
all hell broke loose. A group of teenagers ran past her store into the heart of
the mall, carrying what looked like metal bars or long wrenches. She grabbed
her paintball and hurried to the doorway, glad for once that she had no
customers in the shop. There was the sound of glass breaking, an alarm started
to wail, and screams came from farther into the mall. Rhonda could see the kids
had smashed the jeweler’s window and were grabbing stuff from the display.
She pulled the metal grill over her doorway
and locked it, glad she always wore the key on a wristband while she was at
work. Paintball in hand, she stood outside her store and watched. Sue the
florist was taking photos, or maybe video, of the kids on her cell phone. Ted
and one of the other security guards ran up, and pulled the boys away from the
window. The kids lashed out with their weapons and one guard fell to the
ground. Two customers joined in the affray, subduing one of the kids and taking
his weapon from him.
Sue’s assistant hit another kid on the head
with a bucket full of flowers and water. When he fell to the ground she sat on
his back. The two kids Rhonda had first noticed turned to run. One was coming
straight at her, so Rhonda threw the paintball at him, getting him in the
center of the chest. It seemed to upset him and he slowed enough so that she
could tackle him to the ground. Taking a lesson from Sue’s helper, she sat on
his back, keeping him flat on the floor, even though he tried bouncing his back
and butt to get her off.
Customers, the other security guard, and
staff were chasing the few remaining teenagers, when the police arrived with
sirens and guns. With the loud crack of a warning shot being fired, there was
instant silence. Rhonda sat on the back of the kid, who was no longer trying to
throw her off, until a police officer came to cuff him. Only then did she
notice paramedics wheeling the elderly jeweler out on a gurney, and bandaging
Ted’s head.
Rhonda glared at the kid. “If the jeweler
dies you’ll be in jail for the rest of your life. I hope you think a few pieces
of jewelry were worth it,” she said.

Three FOUR STAR Reviews!!
All three of my “Virgins No More” books
have been reviewed over at You Gotta Read, and they all achieved four star
reviews!!
“The Vicar’s Virgin”: http://yougottaread.com/review-the-vicars-virgin-by-berengaria-brown/
Donna said, “knowing it was listed as
an “erotic romance”, I expected somewhat slutty behavior, perhaps crass
language or something of the sort. Instead, the very virginal bride becomes a
very proper wife who just so happens to enjoy pleasing her husband. In bed and out.
… I very much enjoyed this heartwarming (and erotic) love story.”
“Almost a Virgin”: http://yougottaread.com/review-almost-a-virgin-by-berengaria-brown/
Donna
said, “Almost a Virgin is sweetly seductive and heart-warming. I was very
pleased with the outcome of the book, and I think the author has done a great
job reflecting the subservience of women of the period. They still end up
getting their way, they just have to be delicate while doing it. A very
entertaining read.”
“A Promising Virgin”: http://yougottaread.com/review-a-promising-virgin-by-berengaria-brown/
Donna said, “I was thrilled to see Anne happily settled
with a most deserving Simeon.
I love this series, and I would love to see
the next instalment be a few years into the future with Miss Deborah as a
debutante ready for her first Season. I’m sure she could hold her own with any
Major-General in England!”
Thank you Donna, and You Gotta Read.

"Resort Romance" OUT TODAY!
“Resort Romance” Blurb:
Imogen agrees to
accompany Gage and Liam to a resort for a week’s vacation and some extra hot
ménage sex. The gardens are beautiful, the meals are delicious and the
facilities are excellent, especially the three swimming pools. The men are
delicious too, but Gage is bossy and Imogen is not going to be anyone’s sex
toy.
But the men are
awfully yummy and Imogen is having a wonderful time. Until Gage makes a few
autocratic decisions which remind Imogen of her manipulative father. Then
Imogen has to decide whether the best orgasms of her life are worth risking
potential heartbreak.
Story excerpt
“Wow, this place
is huge. There are three swimming pools. Three! And one has a waterfall and a
beach. And there are gardens and walks, a bridge over the water, and a cinema and
a gym. Tennis courts. A golf course. We’re only here for a week. We won’t have
time to try even half these things.”
Imogen’s hazel
eyes were almost popping out of her head as she looked from the map of the
resort to the various areas they were walking past.
Liam scowled.
“It’s all very well for you two. I’m the fair-skinned one here. I’ll be burned
to a crisp in five minutes in this sun.” He pulled his dark glasses down over
his blue eyes and hunched his shoulders deeper inside his long-sleeved T-shirt.
“I brought sunblock—”
“So did we. Lots
of sunblock. Waterproof sunblock. And hats.” Gage spoke firmly. “We’ll be
sensible and only stay out for half an hour at a time.”
Imogen’s joy
evaporated in an instant. God, he sounds
just like my father. “No going near the water for an hour after eating. Keep
your hat on at all times. No more than fifteen minutes in the sun. No talking
to other children.” All I ever wanted to do was run and play on the water’s
edge like the other kids!
“Imogen!”
With a start she
came out of her reverie and looked at Gage and Liam. They had stopped in front
of a cabin, the end one in a block of four, with huge bushes covered in vivid
pink flowers out front of it.
“Aren’t they
wonderful!” She waved at the flowers, but the men had already opened the door
and were pulling their luggage inside.
Well, hell. It’s a good thing I decided to
come away with them to test our compatibility. It looks like this relationship
is not going to work, at least from my point of view. She sighed, then rolled her suitcase
through the doorway behind them.

New Print book out now!
“Embrace the Future” is a print collection of my three stories in
this series.
“Forbidden Future: Blurb:
More than fifty years ago, wicked winds, carrying deadly diseases,
swept across the land, and their ancestors fled to a protected valley. But now
the easy-to-gather food and fuel are used up, and the people struggle to feed
themselves. The goods their ancestors had brought with them are worn out, and
life is hard trying to feed and provide for themselves.Zuri, Udo, and Tau love each other, but have to meet in the forest to make love. The people decide to go to the city to look for food and fuel. It’s Zuri who finds the ancestors’ truck and asks for a gift in return—that she, Tau, and Udo could be together. Their request is granted. Then everyone plans for the trip to the city. It’ll be very dangerous, but the three of them will be together. But will they find any food? Will they even survive?
“Future
Revealed” blurb:
Ruby, Pagan, and Koby are lonely, missing the community they left
and the friendship of the people from the valley. As they collect supplies for
winter, they decide to get extra and visit the valley, taking them some food
and maybe animals to help them.But first they have to hide from a group of motorcyclists looking to raid settlements for food and women. The trio’s next stop is an abandoned farm, where they find some useful things, including some animals and a truck to transport them back to their warehouse home.
They stay in the warehouse during winter, but once the weather becomes warm again they finish planning their trip to the village, adding a high-sided utility trailer to their vehicles to transport fuel for the people.
Danger is everywhere in this lawless world with food so scarce. Will they even survive the journey?
“Raw Future” blurb:
Adena is determined to marry both Arthur and Ghedi. Not because
Arthur will be leader one day, and he and Ghedi are friends with benefits, but
because they’re the only men she could ever love. She’s also determined to go
on a journey and find more food for their village. Arthur and Ghedi are hot to
marry Adena, but agreeing to her going on the journey with them takes them
longer to accept. With Koby, Pagan, and Ruby, plus Zuri, Tau, and Udo, they set off to find where the food manufacturing site is to provide for their village. They circumnavigate the city but find no fresh food stocks.
Then they’re captured by the Prince of the South and his people. Left with almost no food, they have to decide whether to attempt to go home, or to remain with the prince. Oh, and stay alive, too.
