Today, I want to to introduce to you a woman whose writing I absolutely love!
(I personally bow down to her cover
~ just gaze upon them all here )

Please welcome to the Hussy Lair…
Ms Elizabeth Amber!!!!

I would normally tell you to grab a cuppa something hot…
but today will be a little different.

You might just want to reach for something ice cold…
Cuz it will get all kinda hot up-in-hera!!!!

I will give you a little back history on how I came to know Ms. Amber.
I accidentally stumbled upon her books in Borders one day.
I was just looking for a new book, nothing major…
Taking my time… strolling the aisles… when I saw the spine.
Plain and simple…
Although something was unique… The title… One name… Simple… Plain…

Nicholas

I pulled the book out… and holy shit… This is what seared my eyes….

Oh hell yeah, he was coming home with me.
You have to be dead to think I was not bring this home with ME….
Then I read the blurb and had my first blushing episode in Borders.
Oh yeah, he was coming home with me…

I put a big ol’sign on my book shelf (aka as my closet shelf)…
Wanted to make sure there was no mistake what I meant…
This book is not leaving my house… NO way, no how…
And DO NOT Even think about borrowing it….
Hell to the NO!!!!!!!


So, immediately I went to work on Google and looked up
Elizabeth Amber…
She was my crack and I her addict.
I had to have more… HAD TO ~ YOU HEAR ME!!!!!!
So, when I typed in…
Elizabeth Amber
I thought I hit the freaking mother load….

He has brothers and nephews!!!!!
Holy Mother… Flipping Hottness!!!!!
Brothers… More…. OMG!!!!

So, I immediately went back to Borders…
and bought them alll!!!!!!

Now, that I have wet your taste buds… Let me introduce you all to Ms. Amber!!!!!

Welcome Ms. Amber to the Hussy Lair!!! I want to thank you for coming over and hanging out with us today!!!

I found these few paragraphs at Ms. Amber’s website…. This is a little of what she had to say about herself….

I write erotic historical paranormals romances for Kensington Aphrodisia. I have a great husband, cats named Chelsea and Biscuit, and a bf named Eva. My sister and mom are two of my closest friends, and we all love animals.

I’m also a museum junkie and am intensely interested in history and archeology. When I was an art history major at university, I became fascinated with Greco-Roman artifacts. I’ve visited many archeological sites and museums in Italy and Greece. All those ancient urns, frescoes, and amphorae decorated with satyrs (the carnal followers of the Roman god of wine, Bacchus) and maenads celebrating the annual grape harvest inspired The Lords of Satyr novels.

I wrote Nicholas — the first novel — not knowing if there was a market for the type of book I was writing or if anyone would publish it. But I was intrigued with my story as it unfolded, so I forged ahead. Once the rough draft was completed, I went to an RWA conference. Afterward, I submitted three chapters of Nicholas and a series summary to Kensington. Six months later they called with an offer.

Writing this series has been a pleasure, and I’ve written five Lords of Satyr novels thus far. In order of publication, they are: Nicholas, Raine, Lyon, Dominic, and Dane. Bastian and Sevin are under contract and in progress.

I’m not sure if there will be more beyond these, but I love hearing from readers with their thoughts on what characters they might like to see get their own novels.

I hope you enjoy these books. Let me know.

Ms. Elizabeth, why don’t you tell us something unique about yourself… Something we can find out by googling you… lol….

Well, I named the heroine of Dane, The Lords of Satyr after my best friend, and she doesn’t know it yet!

How cool is that!!! I hope you direct her here so she can see the news!!!
So, if you could sum up who is Elizabeth Amber is in five sentences… What would they be?

E.A. is the author of erotic historical paranormal romances.
She’s the daughter of divorced parents, who were surprised when she began writing erotic romance.
She’s happily married.
She has known her best friend since middle school.
She loves animals of all kinds, has two cats, and volunteers at a local animal shelter when she can.

For those that are new here at the Lair and with your writing… could you please tell us about your writings… what are your books about?

Sure…In the 1800s, half-satyr/half-human lords guard ancient secrets in the heart of Tuscany’s and Rome’s centuries-old wine country. They receive a letter that sends them in search of endangered half-faerie/half-human brides. For not just any woman will do as a Satyr wife. At times, these satyr lords change physically and are driven by the darker side of their natures to indulge in a nightlong ritual in a sacred gathering place ringed with statues of Bacchus, nymphs, dryads, and fauns.

And believe me ladies… You do not want to miss these stories. The story themselves are quiet delicious and coming from this hussy… well.. *grinning like the cat who ate the canary** let’s just say… you really need to put these books on your TBB list!
Could you tell us about your heros… help those who have no idea who they are or what they stand for… fall in love with them….

Nicholas and Dominic are both very sexual and are driven by duty and neither expects to find love. Raine and Lyon enjoy women, but don’t want to wed. Raine has been wed before to a woman who betrayed him, and Lyon simply enjoys women too much to settle on one. Dane—the hero in my upcoming June release–conceals a demon within him that subjugates him during any sort of carnal encounter. As he fights insanity, sexual frustration, and this demon with an inhuman strength, he finds an unexpected love in the very unusual Eva.

These men oozzeee out SEX A ON STICK!! The whole lot of them… they are just… wow! Yeah, that good…
Ms. Elizabeth, was the storyline of The Satyr’s easy to write? Did they write themselves….

Once I know who the satyr in each book is—his inner character, his desires, his longings, what moves him to anger, laughter, love—then his story become easy to write. Until I know who he and his heroine are, writing the book seems like a huge mountains to climb.

Do you have anything else brewing besides the The Lord of Satyr’s family?

Yes! I have an idea for a new series that’s a little different, but for now I’m concentrating on writing the next two books about Dane’s brothers, Bastian and Sevin.

Oh crap… Two more men to read about… Honey, you have just made this hussy’s day!!
**fanning myself**

Okay…. Nice questions over… hee hee… Smutty time…

Your books gave me fits of blushings, tons of paper cuts and some serious hot flashes!! Yea, it did all that. What books have done that to you lately?

I’m so glad you enjoyed them, Cecile.

*Enjoy them… Honey it is more like devour them!!!*

When I think of erotic romance I think of Lora Leigh. She is amazing. And so many others—Anna Campbell, Lisa Valdez to name a couple. Oh, and I’ve just discovered Nalini Singh’s books! (fanning self)

Now you see how I feel about your books, lol!!
In one book, you have two men sharing one woman (no, I am not telling you will have to find out yourself, lol)… can we expect more menage trios, or anything like that in the future books?

Probably. I let the sex scenes grow out of the characters. Nicholas, for instance, was very sexual and he was accustomed to having sex how and when he liked, so he continued to do so even after he met Jane, sometimes with other women, which hurt Jane. But then he fell in love with her and no other woman than she would do. In my new release, Dane, one of the scenes takes place in a passion salon owned by Dane’s brother, Sevin. So there are some voyeuristic carnal things going on all around Dane and his heroine, Eva

Hot damn…. I soooooo can not wait for Dane now. A taste of this book and I am drooling already! You are an evil tease, lol!
Did you ever think you would be writing erotic novels? Who are your go to erotic authors?

As a teen, I read Georgette Heyer, Jane Austen, and Victoria Holt, and I occasionally thought about writing a romance, but never did. The idea for the Lords of Satyr series came in those moments just before I was falling asleep one night. I didn’t write it down at first, but I kept thinking about it and embellishing it in my mind. Then I began taking notes, and eventually I finished Nicholas and a series proposal.

If you could be seduced by any of your heros.. which one would it be and why?
(Yeah, I am evil, lol).

Oh, you are bad, Cecile. :o) I love alpha males, and each of the satyrs has a different appeal. So maybe more than one?

**hot damn… my kinda woman.. especially with all your damn sexy – sex on a stick men – why chose just one…**

Nicholas because he’s the oldest and is verrry experimental; Raine because he’s a wounded soul with a deep, sexy inner strength; Lyon because he has a sense of humor and is loyal to his woman–oh, and because he’s hot; Dominic because he protects his world without complaint and doesn’t expect a woman’s love of his own; and Dane because he’s complicated, tortured, and alpha, and he fascinates me.

Just in case you need some visual aid….

Okay.. quickie time…. You ready??

Coffee or Tea: Tea, almost a whole pitcher a day!
Milk or Dark Chocolate: Both, yum.
Hugs or Kisses: Hugs. Kisses. No, hugs…
Sunrises or Sunsets: Sunsets. I’m a night owl.
Emails or Texts: Emails

Paperbacks or Ebooks: Paperbacks until I find the perfect e-reader.
Cakes or Brownies: Cakes—the white wedding kind.

Okay.. now finish these sentences:

When life hands you lemons….friends and family help.

If I were a man, I would….find out what it would be like to have sex as a man with a woman.
When I dream, I dream….deeply.
My favorite thing to do….travel to Europe.
When I am stressed out, I….work through it or go for a walk.
Do not think you can drag me….because I won’t let you.
I get the giggles when…I’m with my bf.
What I love most about my life is…my friends..
.

Ms. Elizabeth, I want to thank you for hanging at the Lair today!!! It means the world to me that you would stop by!!!!

This is one of my favorite interviews ever, Cecile! Thank you so much. Invite me back anytime. Pleeeese. :o)

Okay… Our favorite time…!!!!!

All you have to do is leave a comment/question for Ms. Elizabeth and your email addy and you are in!!!! How easy is that!

Now ladies… if you stay tuned to my blog… Ms. Amber will be back when Dane makes his appearance. I may even get to snag an interview up with him… **evil wink**

Ohhhh and Ms. Amber has informed me… When she comes back… There will be a chance to snag Dane for a lucky winner!!!!

So mark your calendars for June!!!!! Thanks for coming to play with us!

To find out more about Ms. Elizabeth, please go to her web site —>>> here.
I know she would love to hear from you. Okay… if you don’t want to drop her a line… You might want to go to just drool over the covers… I mean come’on… Who would not want to drool (or pet) these babies….!!!!!!! ((I know I have… sssshhhhhh))

What is going on…. What is she writing….

Bastian is Dane’s older brother, and he’s the guy I’m spending my time with these days. There’s something about an eldest brother that is so appealing. They’re inherently powerful—the one the other brothers look up to. I’m enjoying this one immensely.

Stay tune for a hot Hot HOt HOT HAWT excerpt of Dane….. Just remember… Stay Tune….

  3. Do the ideas for your books come first or do you imagine a hero first, and then write his story? Your stories are very enjoyable. sharonkaras@yahoo.com

  4. Smokinhot, when Nicholas first released, I got many emails begging me to ‘drop the drape’! If only I had that power…but then, maybe it’s better that he remains a mystery. We can imagine whatever we want. [sitting here, imagining]Cecile, ha, Bewitched! But what if you found out you didn’t like what was under there? What am I saying? It has got to be good, right?Joder, a Nicholas pillow. Good idea. A friend of Kate Douglas’s made some Wolf Tales tee-shirts. A pillow would actually be pretty easy to make. I should have thought of them as giveaways. I did give away wine wrapped in the book covers, and that was a huge hit, but expensive.Tracey! good to see you again. I hope they’re something you like if you get a chance to try one. There really are way too many novels to read out there—and I’m glad because I wouldn’t want to run out of novels. I might actually have to clean my house if I had nothing to read. One of my favorite romance novels (historical) is Lisa Valdez’s Passion. Her Patience releases today!!! I’m excited, because that one has been on my list for 5 years. Jeannette, hi! I’m so glad you enjoyed Nicholas. Thanks for letting me know.Mitzi, the covers are hot. I thought it was the spring weather, but maybe it’s those covers that are making me turn on the air conditioner in my office. Kensington really did a great job, especially with Nicholas, which started the series off right. They got placement on the front table at Borders for a while, which was amazing to me to see my first novel right smack in the front of the store.Heather, so good to see you, sweetie. Thank you for being a fan and for tossing your name in. Cecile’s blog is so much fun to visit. SciFi lover, good question…I think the bare bones of the story are what come to me first. A situation or a beginning or a problem that has to be overcome. Next is the character of the hero, and the heroine. Then there’s a lot of back and forth, as the hero’s character changes the story and vice versa. At many times, it feels like a ball of tangled ideas that I have to untangle. Another author I know says that to her the writing process feels like a chipping away at a block of stone to discover the statue that’s underneath.Cecile, thanks again. You’re a sweetheart!
