New Release! Erotic Suspense Novella


It's official! My new BDSM erotic suspense novella Bangkok Noir is now available at Amazon. And you can win a copy, just by commenting.

Let me warn you that Bangkok Noir is not a romance. It does not have a happily ever after ending. On the other hand, it features unconventional characters, mutual affection and respect, and steamy sex with an emphasis on dominance and submission.

Diana Fanning, aka the Professor, runs The Academy, the only genuine BDSM bar in Bangkok. She’s the first person police colonel Apichat Weeranwongsakul consults when a bar girl turns up brutally murdered, tightly bound, with clamped nipples and every orifice stuffed with sex toys. The colonel figures the killer might be one of her customers. But he has his own secrets. He needs Diana to satisfy his shameful dreams of being beaten and abused. Meanwhile, a mysterious American named Sam stalks Nok, the lovely natural dominant who is the Professor’s star performer. Nok is used to being the one in charge. She can’t understand why she craves the discipline Sam administers.

As more women are slaughtered, always in kinky circumstances, the Professor finds herself in an exclusive world catering to the perversions of Bangkok’s wealthy and well-connected. Simultaneously looking for evidence and satisfying her own lusts, she doesn’t realize until too late that the power she’s used to wielding won’t save her from becoming the serial murderer’s next victim.

Sound intriguing? Click here to read an excerpt. Then leave me a comment with your reactions. Do you ever read books that have darker endings? Does my excerpt make you curious?

On Sunday I'll randomly draw the name of one commenter and send him or her a copy of the PDF. (Please include your email address in your comment so I can find you!)

  4. I like to mix up what I read, too much light or too much dark gets boring. I don't think I've read a truly dark BDSM. I recently read Safeword: Matte which a reviewer cautioned was not for the faint of heart. While more than the usual BDSM spanking and mild bondage I usually come across, I didn't find it dark at all. After reading the excerpt, I'm think Bangkok Noir will be darker than that.

    1. Hello, Anne,

      Actually, the BDSM in the book is not all that dark (except for one scene involving the villain). But the whole mood is rather scary.

  8. Wow! I just finished reading Ruby's Rules for the second time now that I have some time for myself, and I'm drooling for more of the power play and deeper BDSM. I love the weakness of control that can happen with certain people--they share very special moments.

    Very nice excerpt, Lisabet, and I can't wait for more!

    1. Greeting, Juliana,

      So pleased to see you here - and of course I'm really flattered you liked Ruby's Rules enough to read it a second time. With all the books out there, that's a huge compliment.

    2. :] It's because I can relate well with your characters--your writing is an amazing fit for my brain and personality. *wink*

  9. I loved your excerpt and can't wait to see how the story ends. Not everything is happy in life. It's good to have more options than happily ever after.
    Thank you for putting my name in the hat.

    1. Thanks, Gayle,

      I worry that my romance readers will be put off by darkness in this book. Hopefully that's not true of everyone.

  10. Love the cover -very sexy. I liked the excerpt, too. I don't always want to read the happy ending. Edgy and super kinky is just fine!

      Right now this cover is probably my favorite ever. Although the cover of M/M coming out next month is a very close second...!

  15. I loved the excerpt and the cover is wonderful. It is artfully done without be overly showing.

    The excerpt was entrancing. The imagery and emotions flowed as if the characters were real. I intend to try to get this book. It has two of my favorite things, suspense and erotica in one book.
