STORY EXCERPT
She
took a step out into her bedroom and finally decided to face the two men that
were still sleeping in her bed.
Hunk
number 1, the one farthest away from her, was lying on his back with one arm
outstretched. She remembered waking up with a lump under her head, and she
guessed it had probably been his arm. His other arm was above his head, with
his face turned toward the window. His skin was tanned, and she guessed he
probably had some foreign blood in him. He had black hair that was cut short,
high cheekbones, full lips and a more pointed nose.
He
was definitely built in the muscles department, with an outie belly button
accompanying his six-pack abs. His hips V-ed into an impressive cock that was
lying flaccid on his thigh. His right leg was bent, and she could see his balls
lying in between his legs. She was impressed that he was completely clean
shaven. His legs were covered in a fine dusting of black hair, and even his
feet were neat and clean.
Kyra
bit her lips as she thought about how impressive his penis would be when it was
hard. As if he felt her stare, his cock twitched and she almost felt guilty for
staring. But a quick peek at both of their faces, and the soft snore that
greeted her ears, told her that they were both still passed out.
Hunk
number 2 was curled into the middle of the bed, like he had been holding her or
was hoping she would return. Because of where she was standing, she couldn’t
see his face. His hair was brown and shaggy, with a slight curl in the back. His
back was muscled and lean, he seemed thinner than Hunk 1, but only slightly.
His butt was shapely, and Kyra resisted the urge to caress it. She had always
been a sucker for a man with an amazing ass.
Hunk
2 started to shift, and she decided to head out into the living room. She
needed to find her purse and her cell phone. She quietly opened her bedroom
door and shook her head at the scattering of clothes that lined her hallway.
When
she found her bra, she noticed that it wasn’t just lying on the floor, but it
was in two different pieces.
Seriously,
what happened last night?
By
this time, she was practically running into the kitchen of her apartment. It
was a two-bedroom, two-bathroom place with a large living area that opened up
into her kitchen as well. In the small entryway of her apartment, she found her
purse lying on the table by the door. She sent up a prayer as she fished out
her cell phone. She hit speed dial 3, and her phone was instantly ringing
Lidia.
After
a few rings, she received a groggy greeting. “What?”
“Lidia,
it’s Kyra. Wake up.” Kyra moved to stand in the kitchen at the counter. Her
eyes bugged as she caught a glimpse of her microwave and realized it was after
1:00 p.m. A rustling on the other end of the phone brought her back to the conversation.
“Kyra,
my hero, how are the two gorgeous men?” Lidia whispered into the phone.
“Why
are you whispering? And you mean to tell me you know who the men in my
apartment are?”
Kyra
heard more rustling, and then a door close before Lidia spoke again. “I was
whispering, because although I didn’t get to leave with two gorgeous men, I
still left with one and he is sleeping. And, of course I know who the men are.
I tried to set you up with them and it worked.”
Kyra
didn’t know how to react. “You tried to set me up with two men?” Her voice
squeaked as she finished the sentence.
“I
did, and you should be thanking me for it. Were they as fantastic as they
look?” Lidia made a mock-growl sound and Kyra put a hand to her face.
“I
don’t know, Lidia. I can’t remember a damn thing. The last thing I remember was
dancing with the grabby accountant who had no moves.”
She
heard a not-so-delicate snort come from her friend, and then she began to laugh
out loud.
“Lidia,
seriously. This is not funny. I have two naked men in my bed, and I don’t know
how they got there. Why in the hell would I bring home two men? I have never
done something like that in my entire life. I don’t even know if I have ever
even thought about doing two men at once. And now hunk 1 and 2 are naked and
snoring in my bed.” All of the panic that had been building inside of her
released in one breath. Unfortunately, it just made Lidia laugh even harder.
ADULT EXCERPT
Jake
winked at her. “Kyra, are you sure about this?”
“I
am definitely sure. Now, I was hoping you would join me in bed.” She grinned.
Gavin looked over at Jake, and they nodded to each other. Kyra watched in
fascination as they both slipped their thumbs into the waistband of their
jeans. Jake went first, stripping the denim down his legs. When he stood up,
she was given the first full glimpse of his body.
He
was gorgeous. His legs were toned and muscular, just like the rest of him. She
couldn’t stop from licking her lips at the sight of his cock protruding stiff
and proudly from his body. He was definitely impressive in size, and even from
a few feet away she could see the veins roping his penis. It twitched slightly
under her gaze, and she smiled seductively up at him, before she turned her
attention to Gavin, who was patiently waiting.
Although
he was shorter, Gavin wasn’t any less impressive. He had an easy smile on his
face as he leisurely stripped his jeans from his legs. He moved slowly, giving
her more of a show and she was grateful. When he stood up she had to suck in a
breath. Gavin’s dick was more than impressive. Not only was he wide in girth,
but he was probably at least an inch longer than Jake, who was impressive in
his own right.
Kyra
felt a rush of moisture hit her pussy, and she clenched her thighs together.
She crooked her finger, and they both stepped forward. Jake crawled onto the
bed in front of her, and Gavin moved around to slide in behind her. She was
immediately surrounded by warmth.
As
if reading her thoughts, Gavin whispered in her ear, “We run a higher body
temperature than humans. We will always keep you warm at night.” He brushed her
hair off of her neck and placed a soft kiss to her shoulder. Kyra shivered in
response.
She
smiled up at Jake, and began to unbutton his shirt. She had just passed her
breasts, when she paused. She had the epitome of male perfection sitting in
front of her, and her inner demons got the best of her.
Kyra
looked up at Jake and bit her lip. She tried for a smile, but it didn’t quite
work. Jake raised a hand to her cheek. “Kyra, you are beautiful. Stop whatever
it is that you are thinking about. We saw your body last night, and unlike you
we can remember everything.” He winked at her before he reached for the shirt.
“Here, let me.” He pushed her hands aside and finished unbuttoning the shirt.
She
couldn’t look up at Jake, so she watched his hands as he skillfully unbuttoned
the rest of her shirt. Once it was undone, Gavin slipped the shirt down her
arms. Kyra helped him take it fully off, before he tossed it on the floor.
Gavin
placed a kiss on her shoulder and she leaned in, brushing the top of his head
with her cheek. She looked up at Jake from underneath her eyelashes and he was
smiling down at her. She reached out and he slid closer to her, placing a kiss
on her opposite shoulder. Then he moved his mouth and sought her lips with his
own.
She
moaned at the feel of his soft lips, and he instantly took advantage of the
opening. He swept his tongue inside her mouth and took full control of the
kiss. She placed her hand on his side and grazed the muscles she had access to.
Jake pulled away all too soon, but she became aware of Gavin’s hands rubbing
circles on her back.
“You
two are amazing.” Kyra smiled first at Jake and then she turned to smile at
Gavin.
“Honey,
you haven’t seen anything yet.” Gavin gently pulled her back so that she was
lying in the middle of the bed with her head resting on the pillow. Gavin lay
on her left side, and Jake on her right.
Kyra
could barely contain her excitement as they both reached out and laid a hand on
her stomach. Their cocks brushed her hip and her pussy clenched. She reached
down and took both of their cocks in her hand. A rush of air hit both of her
cheeks as they exhaled together.
“You
are playing with fire, baby.” Jake’s whispered words sent chills down her spine,
and made her squirm on the sheets.
“I’m
pretty sure I want to get burned.”
BEHIND
THE SCENES
Did you make any marketing mistakes or is there anything
you would avoid in the future?
I did. My website
was with the wrong people and it went down for a few months. Everything I had
for readers had that website on it, and I had to change it for a few months. I
had no way of knowing if people could find my information. My website is just
no going back up.
Why do you think that some well-written books just don’t
sell?
I think that
problems come from bad marketing, no publicity, and a small market. You could
have one of the best-written books out there but if no one knows your name how
are they supposed to find your work?
Do you think that giving books away free works and why?
I think to an
extent it does. Who doesn't love freebies? I think that readers feel taken care
of if they tell the authors are thinking about them. I just think that there
are people out there who take advantage of authors who are willing to give away
freebies and won't ever buy anything; they just are after the free books. Then
there are those people who will get a free book, love the book and then buy the
rest of the books in the series.
How do you relax?
I love to read and
if I'm lucky to have enough time in my day, I love to read in a bubble bath.
What is your favorite book and why?
My favorite book
is "Gone With The Wind" By Margret Mitchell. I think it is a
fantastic story even though it doesn't work out for the lovers. I love how
strong Scarlett O'Hara is and how masculine and sure of himself Rhett Butler
is, Margret Mitchell wrote amazing characters.
What is your favorite quote?
"If music be
the food of love, play on." - William Shakespeare.
Review: Kyra's Double Delight
Kyra’s Double Delight
by Shannon Reckler was a sexy read
as Kyra is thrust into the world of paranormals and the arms of were panthers,
Jake and Gavin. Jake and Gavin are brothers, raised together; they share
everything, including the desire to mate the same woman. They were introduced to
Kyra by a mutual friend and immediately the attraction spirals, even if Kyra doesn’t
quite remember it.
Shannon Reckler delivered
sweet and sexy with an added dose of spice. Jake and Gavin were tender-hearted
which was fueled by their desire and need to please Kyra. Please not only in
sexual desires but in the knowledge they wanted her as their mate.
Kyra, although new to the world of paranormals was
open-minded and not abhorrent to the world of the unknown or being with Jake
and Gavin.
Ms. Reckler gave
each character their own distinct personality. Jake was down to earth, easy
going and all things fun. Gavin was cultured and slightly serious. Between the
two men they were Kyra’s dream and exactly what the nurturing curvaceous woman
needed. The personalities of Jake and Gavin were wonderfully displayed as every-day
guys looking for the right woman. I loved that there was not necessarily any
display of dominance even though traits could be seen. Nice guys, who happened
to be shifters, who wanted a mate, can still come out on top. As characters,
Jake and Gavin tugged at my heart strings. What woman would not want the
attentiveness they showered on Kyra?
The sex was hot as Jake and Gavin ravished Kyra and
engrained themselves into her body and soul. They spoiled her and made her
sexual fantasies come true.
Kyra’s Double Delight
was an erotic tale of sexual inhibitions thrown out the door where ménage could become the norm and accepted.
