I’ve
been really busy promoting TheGazillionaire and the Virgin, but actually I have another
release I should be flogging (so to speak!) The new, expanded edition
of Raw Silk
is available now for early download from Totally Bound. It will go
live on Amazon and other sites on March 1st.
So
I thought I should treat you to a brand new excerpt from that opus.
In case you’re a newcomer to my work, here’s the blurb:
In a foreign land, a woman discovers exotic new realms of the senses…When software engineer Kate O’Neill leaves her lover David to take a job in Thailand, she becomes sexually involved with two very different men—a handsome and debauched member of the Thai aristocracy, and the charismatic proprietor of a sex bar.Each touches her in a different way, each teaches her different things about her body and her heart.Then David comes to Bangkok, and Kate realizes that, finally, she must choose one of the three men who all desire her.
The
scene below is the beginning of the chapter “Showdown”, in which
each of Kate’s lovers tries to convince her that he’s the man she
should choose!
When
you’re done here, by the way, hop back to Victoria’s for links to

The
suite was spacious, lavish, gorgeously appointed with rare textiles
and antiques. Plush oriental carpets soothed her feet. Couches of
carved teak, brocade upholstered, invited her to recline. On a low
table in the center of the room, someone had provided a porcelain
vase of orchids, an assortment of succulent-looking fruit, several
bottles of wine, crystal goblets and a corkscrew. Kate sipped her
chilled Pinot Grigio as she contemplated the twists that had brought
her to this point in her life.
She
had always viewed herself as sober, responsible, practical, someone
who considered the alternatives and weighed the consequences before
making any decision. Yet she had come to Bangkok, half a world from
home, essentially on a whim, veering wildly off the course she had
plotted for her life. She had allowed herself to be seduced, used,
abused, fingered, fondled, and fucked. She had plunged willingly into
a sea of debauchery and depravity.
She
did not regret it, any of it. As dusk settled over the City of
Angels, she knew finally that the controlled, pragmatic, sensible
self she recalled was just a mask. She had found her true self here,
in the embraces and the bonds of those who had possessed her.
And
now, the final act in this passion play was about to start. Kate
refilled her glass and drank deep, trying to relax.
There
was a soft knock. “Come in,” she said without rising from the
couch. Somtow had the key, and he had promised that they would all
arrive together, to avoid any awkwardness. The door swung open
soundlessly. Her three lovers filed in.
David
came first, a spring in his step and a twinkle in his eye, a
remarkable contrast to the weary, rumpled young man she had met at
the airport only a few days before. He wore blue jeans and a shirt of
multicolored batik that set off his rich brown hair and tan skin.
Before she could stop him, he knelt beside her and took her in his
arms, his tongue probing her mouth, his hands wandering over her
breasts.
“David!”
she said, laughing despite herself as she pushed him away. “That’s
not fair. We’re supposed to draw lots.”
“I
can’t help myself,” he said, grinning. “After all, it has been
ages since I’ve seen you.”
Somtow
entered next, elegant in a teal silk shirt and linen trousers. He too
knelt beside her, opposite David. He took her hand and kissed it
gracefully. Then, just as she was admiring his gallantry, he took her
middle finger into his mouth and began to suck it. He ran his tongue
in the sensitive groove between her fingers. The warm, wet touch sent
electric sparks through her.
“Somtow,
you have no excuse,” she said. “Play by the rules.”
Finally,
Gregory entered, and stood towering over them all. Kate was
interested to see that, in contrast to his usual dark garb, he had
dressed all in white. His clothing looked vaguely nautical, a softly
flowing shirt open at the neck and tight pants of white duck. His jet
hair was pulled back from his broad forehead and a silver hoop
gleamed in his earlobe. He reminded Kate of some eighteenth century
pirate. His expression fit the role. With his eyes blazing and his
sensual lips pressed together, he look fierce, desperate, dangerous.
His
voice, however, was as melodious and controlled as ever. “Good
evening, my little Kate,” he said. He held out his hand to her, and
she could not help rising to take it. Heat traveled from his fevered
skin, up her arm, through her nipples, down to her sex. He didn’t
make any further advances. For a long moment they simply stood
together, as the flames flickered through her body.
Somtow
spoke, finally, breaking the spell. “So, here we are, Katherine, at
your service, yours to command.”
