A Romantica® sci-fi erotic romance from Ellora’s Cave


I had a rather short area here telling a little about me but then I had more than a few people ask me to expand it so... here goes. LOL. I'm a full time home 'supervisor' which is a nice word for saying I'm a housewife. I'm married happily, I met my dream guy 20 years ago, and we have 4 children. I live in Southern California and I can't function without iced coffee. I believe in romance, I've always been a daydreamer, and I'm a HUGE fan of books, always have been.

No, I didn't know that I always wanted to write. I inhaled books as a child. I read entire series (Pippi Longstocking, Nancy Drew and The Hardy Boys, Trixie Beldon, The Borrowers, etc) in a matter of days at a time. By the time I was nine years old I had an adult library card where I visited often. I moved on to John Saul, Stephen King, Richard Laymon, Agatha Christie, and then found romance. I was hooked. I wrote poetry in my teens and then moved on to short stories. My first book was started after I read a real bomb of a book that ticked me off with really horrible characters and a plot that was shabby at best and I thought... I could do better. LOL.

I wrote my first book which will probably never see the light of day in the early 90's. I wrote a series of a few books from it. I'm a series fan! I kept writing for fun, wrote MANY books and then in 2009 I decided to try to get published. I wrote my first Sci Fi romance and Ral's Woman came to be. I submitted it and with a little tweaking, Ellorascave sent me an acceptance letter. It was kind of a 'Cinderella' experience for me. It's been a terrific ride so far and I'm really happy that I finally had the time to commit to writing full time. It's a dream come true.


Favorite Quotes:

“I need you.”
She stared into his eyes and cupped his face with one hand. “You have no idea how much I want you too. I’ve never rescued anyone who tempted me more, Handsome. I’ll make you a promise. I’ll meet you when we leave the planet in three weeks. We’ll finish this then. Don’t you dare hook up with anyone else. It’s going to be me and you, okay? We’ll be bunk buddies.”

“Tell me when we’re on Titan.” Eve tore open the bag and stared at two big replicas of men’s penises.
“That was supposed to be a joke. I thought you’d get a laugh out of it the next time you recharged the weapons during the three-month maintenance schedule.”
Numb fingers dropped the bag as she turned to gape at Danica.
Danica had tears in her eyes. “I didn’t know we were going to end up like this. You’re always a bit bitchy and I picked them up at that last outpost we stopped at to buy supplies. It was meant as a hint for you to, um, maybe use one of them to chill out. I got two different sizes because I didn’t know what you’d prefer. Thick or regular girth.”

Blackie, face mask in place, raised his weapon to aim at the door as Gene, kneeling in front of the electrical panel, turned his way and nodded. Gene stood about the same time that the bulkhead doors slid open.
The sight of a brunette with bright green eyes, wearing a blue jumpsuit, was the first thing Blackie spotted. She blocked his view of the woman behind her but there was no doubt of her fellow crewmember’s sex since he got a glimpse of rounded breasts contained inside a small shirt before something hit his chest. Theyone in front had pitched an object at him.
Instinct made him catch it before it bounced off, instantly assuming it was an explosive device. He glanced down to gauge the type, hoping there was a clear path to throw it far enough to avoid being killed. His mind blanked for a second as he gawked, freezing.
“Is that an artificial phallus?”
Gene’s deep-voiced question jolted Blackie from his stunned stupor as he dropped the nonthreatening object and aimed his weapon at the woman. She held a second one as if it were a weapon, waving it back and forth. Part of him wanted to laugh, the sight so absurd it seemed impossible.
“Drop the…” Gene hesitated. “It is a fake—”



This book was given to me in exchange for an honest review.

I loved this book!!! From the beginning this book has plenty of entertainment. Laurann Dohner has done it again!!!  If you loved her books this one won’t let you down. Blackie aka Handsome was held captive and was being tortured and getting ready to be terminated when a woman he thinks is human releases him from his chains and says she will be his bunk buddies when they leave Earth.  But when the ship let Earth he was unable to find her. He thought she had died and he would never see her again. The heartache he must of felt.

Eve aka Hellfire was not human she was part canine and cyborg. Eve agreed to help rescue as many if not all the cyborgs she could but when she met Blackie she decided she he was her mate and she would do anything to keep him. When she was to meet the ship they had already left. She believed she would never see her mate again. So she and her littermate find a way to escape Earth and became bounty hunters but now she has another problem and that was pirates trying to capture them and hurt and rape them.  So Eve and Danica her littermate rammed the ship and disabled them.

Blackie and the crew of his ship heard their transmission and went to save them. In the process of breaking the seal to the ship, Danica opened the door to the main cabin and shocked Blackie and Gene.  Imagining the look on their faces was would have been priceless. But what made it even more fun was reading what Eve through and hit Blackie in the chest. OMG!!! She hit him with an artificial penis.  Can you imagine one of them as a weapon? Taken out by a vibrator!!! Who would of thought!!! I can picture his and Gene’s face when they both looked at Blackie’s hand to see him holding penis.  I laughed and laughed.  Throughout the story you have sarcasm, laughter, anguish, heartache and true love. What more could you want?
