Promotional graphic for Risk Aware, with a teaser for the book that's coming out August 10. "Can I kiss you?" Coral's breath hitched. I had so many questions about it, but she nodded right after, so I'd ask those questions later. If I remembered. Whatever. Kissing her was more important.

5 stars review of Mistress Found titled "...and now I'm unalive" that reads: Holy. Mother. Of... You had better be ready for the freight train of kinks that is this book. YKINMKBYKIOK so bring on the contracts, collars, and consent! This is fiction, but you KNOW this author has done and seen some hot scenes—ain't no way they aren't of the Life, near the Life, immersed kinkster. Solid read! Love how well the Domme took such good care of her sub love:) From negotiations, to checking in, aftercare, research, leaning on friends...DELICIOUS!

“I love puppy playtime,” they mumbled. “And I have a hood and a rubber suit and mitts and a tail, and it’s all color coordinated. Orange. It’s my favorite color.”

“Have people dropped dogs here before?” “From time to time,” Saúl hollered. “People hear sanctuary, and they think everything goes. We have a deal going on with the shelter two towns over, and they find them a good home.”
I didn’t want to judge, but all the vets that had worked with us were the burly types, the ones that could lift the dead weight of a horse if they had to. They didn’t look as fearful as this guy did either. He hadn’t even given me his name, now that I thought about it.
Interesting, Melchom noted, following the almost colluding trails of thoughts through that delicious house of mirrors that now belonged to him.
I was not going to get emotional over basic risk assessments and safety steps that should be the bare minimum, but I wasn’t made of stone, either.
“Well, they are struggling, as evidenced by their far-fetched plan to move out for an entire year.” I did my best not to huff too much while I paused. Cookies were in my future. It was decided. “And you said you were also responsible for me being a good Alpha, and living together is the best way to keep an eye on them. Besides, you’ve been amping up your Daddy tendencies a lot lately, so I don’t know why you’re complaining. Like, here’s someone who needs Daddying! I’m handing them over on a silver platter.”
It was a new sensation all on its own, one I really liked, actually. Was it moving fast? Yeah, of course. I was beginning to accept that fast was my default speed. But it wasn't... It didn't feel rushed or like something I was forcing io fit into the puzzle I'd built.
This trip was a terrible idea. We should've definitely splurged on the airplane tickets, even though I hated flying, and the trip was an excuse to meet up with some donors on the way who loved bugging me on a regular basis if I didn't show my face. There was a high likelihood Cam would've spilled his guts regardless, but I wouldn't be trapped in this damn truck for at least another day while I processed.

Screenshot of an email written by AI about one of my books. Mary White titled the email "Let's boost Coiled Tight's visibility on Goodreads", and it reads as follows: Hi Emily, I came across Coiled Tight and couldn't help but think, this story deserves to reach readers who love contemporary Daddy/little dynamics, cowboy romance, and emotionally charged, steamy storytelling. Cameron and her journey toward redemption, set against the rugged backdrop of a Texas sanctuary, makes it exactly the kind of book fans of kink, heart, and heat devour. Goodreads is one of the most powerful yet often underused visibility tools for authors, especially through Listopia placements and optimized reader engagement. That's exactly what I help authors achieve through my Goodreads Visibility & Listopia Placement System, a strategic approach that focuses on organic discovery and credibility, not ads or gimmick. Here's how it works:
