In my newest release, Exposing
Ellen, the characters are set up on a 1Night Stand by the mystical Madame
Eve (the whole 1Night Stand series
is connected through her). By definition, a tryst like this isn’t supposed to
last beyond morning, but my characters consistently ignore me and break the
rules. Ellen, a recent divorcee, had never gotten her hands on the metaphorical
1Night Stand rulebook, and Aimee…well, Aimee’s a troublemaker who never met a
rule she didn’t enjoy breaking. Luckily for both of them, no proper protocol
was observed during their night together! We’ve talked, and they’ve advised me
to share their top five rules to break during a 1Night Stand.
1.
Don’t
meet at a luxurious, romantic hotel.
2.
Kissing
is for chumps. Feel free to ignore her lush, pink lips.
3.
Definitely don’t share any personal details.
You’re just there for the sex!
4.
Be
selfish. Focus on your own pleasure, especially since you’re never seeing your
lover again.
5.
Never ever have breakfast together the next
morning. Your date certainly won’t be more appealing in daylight.
Aimee, in all her infinite wisdom, told me “The only thing
you can do wrong is not be honest.” Now that’s a rule they can both get behind.

BLURB
Ellen Porter is a stranger to the single life--as much a
stranger as she is to facing her same-sex desires. The recent divorcee,
desperate to prove that her attraction to women is just a phase, enlists the
help of Madame Eve for one night of “getting it out of her system.”
Aimee Tran has had enough of the Los Angeles bar-hopping
scene. In pursuit of a genuine romantic connection, she discovers Madame Eve
and decides that maybe, just maybe, a one-night stand will tide her over until
she finds The One.
Neither woman expects lust to burn down their preconceived
notions—or to crave more than one desperate tryst.

EXCERPT
“I....” She shook her
head, terrified of the eagerness building inside her. “I have no idea what I’m
doing,” she eventually whispered. “I’m sorry. Contacting 1NightStand was a bad
idea, not fair to you at all.” Paolo might have been right. Her broken marriage
was her fault.
She moved out of the
balcony doorway but gentle fingers settled on her shoulders. “Not so fast,
hon.” Aimee’s voice pitched low. “It’s not like I know what I’m doing either.
I’ve never called up Madame Eve before.”
Ellen stared out over
the ocean, where her date’s beauty didn’t distract her and she didn’t have to
see the condemnation in Aimee’s eyes. “It’s more than being new to a dating
service.” She paused and swallowed around her embarrassment. Neither in her
mother’s house nor her husband’s had she been encouraged to talk about intimate
issues. She hadn’t even heard certain anatomical euphemisms spoken out loud
until her husband’s mistress ended up in their bed. Still, she forged on—Aimee
deserved an explanation. “I’ve only been with a woman once, kind of. You
obviously know what you’re doing and it’s not fair to you to be stuck for a
night with someone who—”
Aimee spun her around,
pulled her close, and twisted her fingers through Ellen’s hair. “Am I imagining
your arousal?”
Oh, Lord. Her lips parted. The other woman stood so near.
Her tongue flicked across Ellen’s lips and she bit off a moan. “I—”
Aimee pressed closer until their breasts squished together.
One of her legs slid between Ellen’s. “Am I imagining your little gasps of
pleasure? Of desire?” She bit Ellen’s earlobe. “If I am, tell me to leave.
Because, honey, right now your inexperience is turning me on.”
AUTHOR BIO

She currently resides in sunny southern California, alternately cursing the polluted air and adoring the weather. Skylar spends her time asking the cabana boys to bring her more mimosas and feed her strawberries while she dreams up her next naughty adventure.
She blogs at the SkylarVerse and with the Nine Naughty Novelists.
