Message from Susan Anderson:

Happy Spring!

I hope you’re finally getting some decent weather in your part of the world. It’s still crazy finicky in mine—cool-to-cold temps with rain and bluster one day, blue skies with beautiful warm breezes the next--then back to cold and blustery again. I’m ready for some heat.

Speaking of which, I gave myself a lift by posting the one, the only, the official excerpt to Bending The Rules and its accompanying new contest on the website. No shorty sneak peek this time, folks; this is the real deal. Stop by and check them out. Because while they may not bring you perfect weather (my ego’s pretty healthy but I don’t think I’m that all powerful) I hope the longer glimpse into Poppy and Jase’s story will at least add a tiny ray of sunshine to your day.

Happy Reading, my chickadees.

~ Susan<

Totally Relentless Contest

Erin McCarthy's Hard and Fast Contest


HARD AND FAST, the sequel to FLAT-OUT SEXY, starring a bad boy race car driver hero who's met his match from hot USA Today bestselling author Erin McCarthy officially hits the shelves on May 5th but it's available for preorder now at Amazon for a great discounted price!! And Erin wants to celebrate with a great contest!

Grad student Imogen Wilson realizes she's hit on the perfect thesis for her sociology degree. If she follows the so-called "rules" on how to get a man, can she steer her way into the world and hearts of stock race car drivers, and establish their dating - and mating - patterns?

Although sexy and reckless racer Ty McCordle is the ideal test subject, Imogen knows that for the sake of science, she can't give in to her growing attraction for him. Yet he's the one who's chasing after her, and Imogen realizes that she actually wants to be caught. A southern gentleman like Ty will satisfy all her curiosity - and make all the risks worthwhile...

To get your name in the hat for an autographed copy of two of Erin's earlier books featuring other bad boys, head over to Erin's site and read the excerpt to her upcoming release HARD AND FAST to find out how Nikki got a pass for a box seat at the race. Email your answer to AuthorIsland at yahoo.com, along with your name and address. Put Erin McCarthy in the subject line. A winner will be chosen on Release Day - May 5th - Good luck!

A Naughty Contest From Desiree Holt


Desiree Holt's new Quickie, I DARE YOU, was just released by Ellora's Cave and she wants to celebrate with a new contest!

She's got a "naughty" bath-time package for you complete with makeup bag, bath salts, bath fizz balls, sented soap, bath sponge, and True Blue Spa manicure set.

She met him online in a desperate bid to save her faltering sex life. Connected only by computer, unable to see or hear him, Shannon is drawn step-by-step into the world of BDSM. Each night, as she learns the role of the submissive, she performs the most intimate acts, describing them in detail for her cyber lover. She can almost feel his hands, his fingers and tongue stimulating her body. She spends each day aroused, wet and throbbing, anticipating each "meeting".

Now he wants to meet her in person, on a treasure hunt that he promises will end with the most erotic, sexually fulfilling night she could imagine. Should she dare take the challenge in this sizzling new Ellora's Cave Quickie from Desiree Holt?

To get your name in the hat for Desiree's Naughty Bath Set, head to Desiree Holt's Website and read the excerpt for I DARE YOU to find out what was in the box that was waiting for Shannon at The Hot Java.

AuthorsIsland Contest - Mary Eason


Can't miss Mary Eason's contest!

Winner will be drawn on May 15th!

Author Mary Eason just joined us here at AuthorIsland and she wants to celebrate by offering up an autographed copy of her romantic comedy THE THINGS YOU THINK YOU WANT to one lucky AuthorIsland reader!

A little tease read: Caterer Carrie Sinclair thinks she has the perfect life and doesn’t need a man to complete it. Her pudgy kitty Max is the man in her life, and that’s enough for her. Then, quite by accident, she comes across the man of her dreams. Tyler Bennedict is perfect boyfriend material: Charming, sweet, rich, and incredibly sexy. No matter that he’s made it clear he’s not looking for a serious relationship. One night in his arms, and all her usual warning bells about men go silent. She should have listened to those bells, and to Aunt Mable. Enter Tyler’s real estate tycoon father, Richard. He makes it relentlessly clear she is not the woman for his son, and comes up with creative ways to keep them apart until Carrie sees the light. In one fell swoop she swears off all men, closes her business, and gets out of Austin. But no matter how far and how fast you run, the unexpected bumps in the road have a way of revealing the truth and turning your life – and your heart – a complete 180.

To enter for your chance to win, head over to Mary’s website Mary Eason and check out her book page to give the titles of her available books.

Email your answers to authorisland@yahoo.com, along with your name and address. Please put Mary Eason in the subject line. A winner will be drawn on May 15th – Best of luck!!
