I now have four 1Night Stand stories released with another coming soon.
Let’s take a glance at them.
Satin Sheets in Space
My most recent 1Night Stand release.
A Sci-Fi Romance MFM Menage.
Danyka’s date is everything she’s dreamed of, but when she finds herself on a spaceship with not one but two sexy aliens, she fears her fantasies have become a nightmare.
Unknown Futures
A Lesbian Sci-Fi Romance.
Can Flavia convince Jewel to spend the night with her?
Or will she be rejected for another?
Beneath the Starry Sky
A MF Contemporary Erotic Romance.
For both Tamara and Josh, letting go is the first step to love…
with a little help from Madame Eve.
Celestial Seduction
My debut novella, which celebrated its one year book birthday July 1st.
Frey needs to convince Carrie that her perfect mate isn’t human
and that one night can lead to a forever love.
And coming soon to the 1Night Stand series…
Sudden Breakaway
An Interracial, May to December Romance with a splash of Sci-Fi.
Dressed in her black designer suit, Paige Brown recruits men and women for the Space Service. After the end of her marriage, and several failed recruiting missions, she yearns to find a way out of her lifelong contract to live a normal life. To find love again.
Jared Barnes’s life had been flipped upside down by two little kids. When his former Commander’s wife shows up to give him a reprieve, he jumps at the chance for a break, and to visit his former squad. But it is not his buddies he meets in the private suite at the Washington Capitals game, instead a woman who has been the star of all of his recent fantasies.
***
And since some of my other stories have received more attention lately,
I thought I’d share an excerpt from Unknown Futures.
**This story also continues Frey and Carrie’s story from Celestial Seduction.
Jewel tagged along behind the rest. V’s hug had taken her completely by surprise. Smiles, now touching? She thought she’d been prepared to go on a one-night stand, to have sex with a strange woman, but maybe she wasn’t. Sure, her traveling companions hadn’t made her feel like a freak, but Carrie had married, and was now pregnant with, a blue alien. Imagine what Jewel’s neighbors would say if they saw Frey on the street.
Leaving the concourse, they traveled down a long hallway. V stopped and placed her hand on a pad beside a metal door, which slid open. “Frey and Carrie, this is your suite. There is a buffet every evening in the dining hall, down the corridor and to your right. If you need anything at all, press the front desk button on the communication panel.” She gestured to the screen inside the door. “Enjoy your stay at the SS Hotel, where everyone in the universe is welcome.”
Wait! Everyone in the universe? This place is filled with aliens. Jewel’s head spun. Is that why Madame Evangeline sent me here? Because no one on Earth would want to date me? She cringed. The elephant and the blue women had been somewhat attractive, but she hadn’t noticed a difference between the male and female bug people or the blue blobs. Her vision blurred with the onset of tears. I’ve made a horrible mistake.
Something touched her shoulder and she jumped.
“I’m sorry I scared you.” V startled her again by reaching to wipe moisture from her cheek. “I wanted to make sure you were okay. I know this place can be overwhelming when you first arrive.”
That’s for sure. She couldn’t imagine living there. “So, will you show me to my room?” She yearned to hole up like she did back on Earth, lose herself in a story until she went on her date with the alien. Except for V and Carrie, she’d seen no other humans on the space station, and she wasn’t supposed to meet her date until tomorrow night. Sure, the idea had excited her in her books, but none of the humanoids and other beings she’d
seen were fashionista beauties.She’d gone through a week of emergency procedure training at a top-secret facility even she wasn’t allowed to know the location of, with the couple who traveled with her. All of that packing and training for one night with a space creature whom she’d never see again? During that week, they’d met with the director of the space station, an odd character as well; why hadn’t she objected then?
V put her arm across her shoulders. “You’re staying with me.”

Hi Jessica! Thanks for the awesome giveaway! It was so hard to narrow it down to one 1NS story..there was a whole bunch on them already on my tbr list…including Satin Sheets In Space (love that cover…so hot!) It is also a given so I picked another story which is…Last Request by Arlene Webb.
andieleah78@gmail.com
I would like to read Satin Sheets in Space , and Celestial Seduction. They both look like my type of story
From Petula : p.winmill@hotmail.com.
Hi Jessica! You do have some fabulous covers!! I really like the look of Satin Sheets!!
I just finished Satin Sheets…would love to read Celestial Seduction.

I really loved Celestial Seduction and the way you brought sci fi into the 1NS series. So many 1NS stories have come out since the first story published. It’s hard to believe we have well over 100 out and climbing. I think there’s a little something for everyone in the series, including science fiction (thanks to you and your lovely stories) I’m off to work, but I wanted to hit your post before you left, to thank you for hosting this blog hop. Happy hopping,
Dawn
I loved Beneath a Starry Sky. The subject matter was so hearttouching for me.
I’d like to read ‘Back in the Saddle’ by Ashlynn Monroe.
Thanks for the contest/giveaway!

I have your, Beneath the Starry Sky and can’t wait to get to it. I just recently read and really enjoyed Ghost of a Chance by Deena Remiel. I love all romance books, but I guess my favorite sub-genre is paranormal.
Great hop!
I’d love to read Beneath the Starry Sky or Satin Sheets in Space. I’ve added both to my wishlist. Thanks for the giveaway and for organizing this hop! It’s a great way for me to find new books to read!

Thanks Tara! Well, you’re busy designing some of the fabulous covers for the 1Night Stand series.

Looking at steamy couples all day is about as fun as writing about them. It tends to lead to longer work hours (grin).
Tara recently posted..Lastest Design: Angela Wallace
I haven’t read any of the 1NS books, I just learned of them. Now I’m excited to get started. Last Request by Arlene Webb sounds like a great one as well and Unkown Futures. I can’t wait to get started
