The Courage to Take Another Chance

By Starla Kaye (Guest Blogger)

The statistics about physically and emotionally abused women in relationships is scary. Getting out of such relationships is almost as frightening. It is easy for someone not in the situation to give advice, or almost to belittle the abused person because they don’t get out of the relationship. The outsider isn’t “walking in their shoes,” living in their life. Too often the self-confidence of the abused women has been destroyed. Finding the courage to take a chance on leaving a harmful situation can be difficult.

In Trusting Love Again, the heroine was such a woman. Before the abusive marriage she had found herself in, Toni had been an outgoing, upbeat, impulsive young woman. She was one of far too many women who were blinded by falling in love with the wrong man. She paid the emotional price for making a bad decision. Her problems were made worse because she felt guilty and then began losing the self-confidence to stand up for herself. But she did finally find the inner strength to get out of the traumatic marriage and found the determination to rebuild her life. Trusting another man, trusting herself to fall in love again…enormous steps for her to take.

The hero, Chad, hadn’t suffered in the way Toni had in his previous marriage. But his trust in a woman he’d thought he loved had been shattered. He, too, had married the wrong woman, trusted her with his heart and with being in an honest relationship. They grew apart, which often happens. She decided she wanted to pursue a career that would take her somewhere else. Her announcement blew apart his dreams of their having a family together and living contentedly in the town where he had a law practice. She was all too anxious to step away from a marriage that would hamper her plans and he didn’t want to hold her back. Heart-wounded, he agreed to a divorce. He was further wounded when his ex-wife admitted after the divorce hearing that she’d had an abortion for a baby he hadn’t known about. Trusting another woman, falling in love again…enormous risks for him to take.

Signs of Emotional Abuse

  • Your feelings are ignored
  • You are called names
  • What you do is monitored by someone else
  • You are unfairly accused of being unfaithful all the time
  • You are prevented from seeing friends or family
  • You are stopped from going to work or school
  • Your spending money is controlled
  • You are humiliated in front of others
  • Someone else decides things for you, including what you will wear or will eat

All she wants is to start over, live a peaceful life…

After an abusive marriage and an ugly divorce, Toni needs to rebuild her self-confidence and start a new life in her hometown. Going home again and confronting people she’d hurt when she’d left is never easy. She’d hung onto the idea of buying a long-abandoned old house and remodeling it to help her recover. But a man from her past has recently purchased it for his business. That’s her emotional breaking point and she does something reckless. Now she must pay the legal consequences of her foolish actions…by working for him.

All he wants is to focus on his work…

Chad’s job as a lawyer working to protect the rights of the abused elderly consumes his time and energy. It cost him his marriage and an aborted child he hadn’t known about. Now he works harder, guards his bruised heart. Yet the return of someone he’d held secret feelings for comes back to town. She upsets his world, starting with minor destruction of his business property and causing him minor injury. He shouldn’t become involved in helping this troubled woman, yet he can’t keep from doing so.

Two heart-damaged people have trouble trusting love again.

Excerpt

You’re taking so long,” she said breathlessly, frowning.

I guess it’s time to get started.” He stroked his thick shaft while she shivered with anticipation. Their gazes met and he gave a wicked grin. “Thank you for letting me do this.”

He stroked himself again, then guided the cock until it touched her pulsing, swollen lips. The sight was exciting to watch, but she had to turn her head away. She didn’t want him to see how badly she wanted him. It would be there in her eyes, she was certain of that. She braced herself mentally and physically. And waited.

But he didn’t keep her in suspense for more than a second. He gripped her hips with his big hands and the elastic bandage rubbed lightly against her. She barely had time to think about it before he drove deep inside her.

Ohhh. Oh my,” she gasped at the fullness.

Are you all right?” he asked in concern. He held still in her body and she quickly adjusted to the thick invasion.

She pressed backward and his balls met her bottom. She shivered, longing for more.

I take that for a ‘yes.’” He pulled nearly out as she moaned in disgruntlement. He chuckled and thrust deep once more. “Demanding woman, aren’t you?”

Every inch of him smoothed against her sensitized skin, rubbed places inside her in such a delicious way. But a demanding woman? It had been a long time since she wanted a man to have his way with her. Stanley’s way had never been enjoyable, at least not for her. A thought which annoyed her. Stanley was in her past. Chad just might be her future. An idea that worried her.

Enough thinking about that! “How about speeding it up a little?” she beseeched, quivering all over.

Yes, ma’am.” He began driving back and forth as she’d requested. His grip on her hips tightened and she heard his heavy breathing.

A part of her braced for roughness, for his undeniable power over her. Not Stanley. Remember that.

He eased back on the rhythm, moved more gently. “I want this to be good for you, Antoinette.”

She could sense how much this slowing down was costing him and that knowledge endeared him to her even more. He wanted to make her climax first. Another special gift from him. The notion, along with the steady drive in and out, touching the most intimate part of her, had her panting. She squeezed her eyes shut as the sensations built.

Worn Jeans, Scuffed Boots, Low-Tipped Stetson…Oh, my!

By Starla Kaye (Guest Blogger)

Let me count the reasons I love cowboys. Sorry, I can’t count that high.

I’ve been in love with a gruff, man of few words, stubborn to the bone, dang sexy cowboy for a long time. My dad got me started on the old Westerns a long time ago and I still enjoy them. I like them so much that I’ve published forty-four stores involving cowboys.

My newest book from Decadent Publishing, For Ruby's Love, is the sequel to The CEO and the Cowboy. Both books obviously involve a cowboy. While writing them I got to indulge my fantasy of falling in love with a cowboy, driving him to the edge of his patience, and bringing him to his denim-covered knees. Although that really happened more in the newest book, in which I brought a woman into the mix of the two men who had begun a romantic relationship in The CEO and The Cowboy.

Actually, I treasure Western stuff so much that my office is decorated with it. I have a collection of miniature fancy boots, small covered wagons, a lighted stagecoach on an end table, the cutest cowgirl-dressed dachshund you’ve ever seen, numerous Western hanging ornaments that hang year-round on my walls, and two art quilts I’ve made. One has some of the covers from my cowboy books on it and the other is just Western-themed.



I also enjoy traveling to places that give me fresh ideas for future settings for upcoming Western contemporary romances. For example, last fall I visited Medora, North Dakota in the upper Badlands. I absolutely fell in love with the area and the town and the people and…. Okay, I’m starting a four-book series based on the area, Cowboys from the Badlands.

Because of my love for everything cowboy, I occasionally do some kind of informational post on my Starla Kaye blog. In case you’re interested, I’ve done the following posts: 


Here are some of my favorite cowboy slang terms (old and current). See if you know any of them!
*Reference: Old Slang, Lingo & Phrases - http://www.legendsofamerica.com/we-slang.html

Acknowledge the Corn: To admit the truth.
A Lick and a Promise: To do a haphazard job.
Desert Canary: A burro.
Disremember: Choose to forget.
Hellabaloo: Riotous noise.
Honey-fuggled: To cheat.
Hopped for Mama: A horse bucking.
Rag Proper: Dress well.
Shop-mades: Boots.
Steel: Spurs.
Stretchinthe Blanket: Telling a tall tale.
Suitcase Rancher: An absentee rancher.
Wearing the Bustle Wrong: Referring to a pregnant woman.

Although Calhoun Cordell, my cowboy in For Ruby's Love, didn’t actually use the term “disremember,” I believe he would have if he’d thought of it. He would have loved to forget all about the spirited, stubborn cowgirl that showed up at his ranch in place of the horse whisperer he’d expected. Ruby Tuesday McMurtry made him nuts from the first look at her on.



BLURB
Calhoun’s a simple cowboy with more problems in his life than he can handle at the moment. After nearly two years, he struggles to hang onto a relationship with Daniel, his first male lover. Daniel is worried about him because of the fire, his concern for his prized breeding mare, and because he is determined to buy the neighboring ranch to expand. But Daniel isn’t a businessman without goals of his own for expansion, a fact that frustrates Calhoun as well. He doesn’t want to lose Daniel, but will their differences finally be too much?

Daniel considers himself a lucky man to have met the rancher, someone almost his opposite and someone who he doesn’t want to live without. Standing beside the moody Calhoun has been difficult since the fire that burned down a horse barn, took the lives of two valuable horses, and traumatized a favored mare. Along with all of that, his harried friend is determined to expand his ranch holdings. Daniel is against the purchase and would prefer to find a way to slow the man down. Lately, he’s also begun worrying if maybe he isn’t enough to satisfy his lover’s needs.

Complicating everything even more, Ruby shows up later than expected at Calhoun’s ranch to honor a job as a horse therapist that her father had agreed to before his sudden death. She knows what happened to the mare and is certain she can help her, if given the chance. But the stubborn rancher can’t get past the idea of her being a woman, someone not strong enough to work with such a damaged horse. They butt heads over the matter until she finds an ally in Daniel. He is concerned and yet believes in her abilities. Another problem arises, though. She and Calhoun have been skirting around an unwanted attraction, and then she discovers another surprising interest between her and Daniel.

EXCERPT
He pulled open the over-sized front door and gaped at the bit of a woman shivering on the porch. She appeared a foot shorter than him and a good sixty or more pounds lighter. What hit him most were her eyes—an odd dark green, like jade or something. Her eyes narrowed as he looked her over.

Finally, she stretched to her full minimal height and bristled at him. “When you’re done checking me out, do you think you could let me inside? It’s colder than cold out here.”

Daniel stepped beside him and intervened. “Let the lady in, Cal.” He looked around her and asked, “Where’s your car? Assuming you drove here.”

She slid between them into the tiled foyer before turning back. “No car. And I didn’t drive here, at least not exactly.” Her teeth chattered.

Calhoun closed the door against the sharp winter breeze and watched her pull off a battered pink Stetson, unveiling chin-length strawberry-blonde hair. “What does ‘not exactly’ mean?” He added, “Who are you, anyway?”

She worried her trembling lower lip and glanced from him to Daniel and back. She pulled off a glove and stuck out her hand. “Ruby McMurtry.”

Instead of taking her hand, he puffed up in annoyance. “You’re late! Where’s your father?”

She started to lower her hand, glowering at him. But he noticed something besides anger in the depths of those enchanting eyes. He couldn’t get a handle on the emotion.

While he tried to calm down, wishing he hadn’t jumped on her, Daniel reached out and shook her very red-looking hand.

You feel like ice,” he said in concern. He took a second to scowl at him.

As she blinked at her hand sandwiched between Daniel’s, her already pink-chilled cheeks turned pinker. “I should’ve worn my thicker gloves,” she muttered in clear discomfort. When she managed to slip free, she glared at him.

A twinge of guilt about his rude behavior passed through him, but his anger came out first as he repeated himself. “Where’s your father? I have a serious bone to pick with him.”

Those eyes that still captivated him welled up with tears. His gut tightened.

Her lower lip wobbled and she sputtered, “He…he…he’s dead.”

Can't Get Enough of Those Cowboys!

By Starla Kaye (Guest Blogger)

Cowboys, cowboys, cowboys. . . I can’t get enough of them. I love them from the tip of their scuffed boots, to their snug fitting jeans and chambray shirt rolled up past their elbows, clear up to their wide-brimmed hat.

I’ve been writing about all kinds of heroes for quite a few years now, mainly penned as Starla Kaye. I’ve also published several romantic suspense stories as S.K. Fero. Although I will continue writing as Starla Kaye, I will now focus even more on writing western romances, both historical and contemporary, as S.K. Fero. Please see my contact information below for S.K. Fero’s info as well as Starla Kaye’s.

Cowboy Hats: More than you’ll ever want to know

Handling a hat:
  1. Some people swear that you should never grab the hat by the crown. Pick it up by its brim and then adjust it by the front and back of the brim.
  2. Other people say to hold the brim near the crown in the front and back when putting on or removing the hat.
  3. Set it upside down on its crown. Never set it right side up on its brim because that causes the brim to warp and misshape.
  4. Store the hat upside down inside its original box, if not worn often.
  5. Never set the hat near a heat source because that will cause the sweat band to contract and shrink the size. This is a real annoyance after you’ve got it to conform perfectly to your head.
Dealing with wet hats:
  1. Felt hats were designed to be used in the rain.
  2. Wool hats are designed for dry climates and should never get wet.
  3. Straw hats are designed to handle a minimal amount of rain.
  4. When the hat gets wet, carefully even out and round out the dents and creases. Carefully turn the sweatband to the outside and sit the hat right side up on the sweatband. Let it dry slowly. Do not put it in an oven or use a blow-dryer on it.
Cleaning hats:
  1. Protect a hat from water damage with a non-silicone based protector, sprayed and lightly brushed into the felt.
  2. Keep felt hats clean with brushing, but use different ones for dark and light-colored hats.
  3. Get a heavily dirt and stained hat cleaned by a professional.
  4. Straw hats should be brushed regularly with a brim brush or an ordinary whisk broom. Clean a straw hat with a damp sponge and non-detergent soap.
Hat color:
Black hats are warmer and keep a cowboy’s head warmer on long cold nights or day.
Crown creases:
  1. Ranger Style: The two creases and dips are toward the front of the crown, with the crown higher in the back.
  2. Montana Peak: A hat with four creases radiating out from the top of the crown. The Royal Canadian Mounted Police wear this style.
  3. Straight Crown: A hat with no creases pressed into the crown.
  4. Hispanic Felt Hat: A hat with a straight crown flattened on top.
  5. Derby: A hat with no creases and the brim is narrow.
Hat etiquette:
  • Tip your hat for strangers. Take if off for friends.
  • Tip your hat any time a lady thanks you for some service.
  • Take off your hat when the National Anthem is played.
  • Take off your hat at a burial.
  • Don’t take off your hat in public buildings, entrance halls, corridors of office buildings or hotels, or in elevators.
  • Take off your hat when sitting down at a table for a meal, unless there is nowhere safe to lay the hat.
  • Leave the hat on when sitting down to eat a meal at a counter.

Cowboy Dreamin' by Starla Kaye

 BLURB:

Kendra spends her days and nights running a business, sculpting, and leading a Tahitian dance group in Kauai. She can’t squeeze anything else into her life, but she dreams of cowboys. Sexy, hot cowboys in tight jeans, low-tipped Stetsons, and dusty boots. Men who know all about how to please a woman. She enjoys her fantasies, but can’t imagine ever settling down. But one night with one would be so nice. Surely that would get her dreams of a white knight cowboy sweeping her off her feet out of her system.

Because of an accident that Shane believes left him “less of a man,” he doesn’t see a wife and children in his future. Carson, his ranching partner—and sometimes lover—thinks Shane is wrong. Carson refuses to let Shane settle for a life of rodeo bunnies who only want a romp in bed with a bull rider. Shane deserves more than that. He manages to sign Shane up with a matchmaking service to, hopefully, meet another kind of woman, maybe someone who will appreciate Shane for the man he is. Except Madame Evangeline expects both of the cowboys to go on this special one night date. It doesn’t take long for either cowboy to realize that one night with the purple-haired, hip-shaking beauty in Kauai might not be enough….

EXCERPT:

Shane watched in fascination as two island women danced onto the beach stage barefoot, hips swaying, breasts bouncing. He’d seen this kind of dancing on TV once when he’d flicked channels around. It hadn’t held his interest at the time. But, damn, he liked the hell out of it in person. So did his lower body.

He shifted in his chair and hoped no one would notice the way his cock had tented the front of his too-tight jeans. He’d gone too long without loving a pretty female. Then he remembered why he was here and his mood soured. An arranged date.

He started to get up to leave when two more eye-catching dancers slipped from the cave entrance. One in particular snagged his attention. His dick grew harder; his pulse raced. Damn, talk about hot! And she knew how to shimmy her hips. He hoped he wasn’t drooling.

Then he forced his gaze higher and couldn’t move it beyond two plump breasts cupped by a pair of coconut shells. He ached to replace the shells with his palms, squeeze those….

The dancers did a sexy little hip-swishing spin. He swallowed and stifled a shudder. Sweat beaded on his upper lip. No doubt she affected every other man in the area. A glance at Carson told him his good buddy sure was under her spell.

He reached for his beer and chugged the rest of it, hoping it would cool him down. It didn’t. As he focused on the woman in the pink skirt again, he thought his poor old heart would beat itself to death. She had more wiggle to those amazing hips than any of the others. Those shells were working darn hard to contain her tempting breasts. And her smile…. God, he’d never seen one so….

She did another sassy, hip-teasing turn and captured his full attention once more. He hadn’t noticed her waist-length hair all that much before, but now the wavy mass fluttered around her, caressed her sweet body. It fascinated him, until he studied her closer. “Is her hair purple?”

It appears to be,” Carson said in a husky tone. “I’m real glad we didn’t miss this.”

Shane didn’t want to admit he agreed, because that would mean he had accepted the arrangement then. But he wasn’t suffering. He kept watching the dancers, thinking about the photo in the e-mail. Which of these dancers was Kendra? They’d been told she had blue eyes. These women had brown eyes.

Interrupting his musings, the purple-haired beauty looked in his direction and her blue eyes widened. She fell out of sync with the others. He knew in that instant she was the woman he’d balked at meeting. His gut warned him his world would never be the same.

Building Intensity

By Starla Kaye (Guest Blogger)

[Note from Lisabet: Starla's giving away a copy of one of her books to one lucky commenter!]

It is important that the reader be given an introduction to the main characters that will, hopefully, pull at their heart strings in some way. The reader needs to see the characters as “real” people, who face ups and downs in their lives just as they do. The characters struggle with conflicts in their lives, in their jobs, and in their relationships. A reader needs to pull for the characters. She should keep turning the pages to see how these people battle forward and work toward achieving their goals. And the romance reader wants to see some kind of happily ever after for the characters, whether it is for long term or at least for now in their lives. But the reader also wants to watch the changes these characters make, experience the intensity building internally and externally.

In Starting Over, my newest release from Decadent Publishing, I wanted to create a story about two men struggling to move on from difficult issues they’ve faced in their lives. Corbin had reached the point where his work didn’t satisfy him. He’d had to drag himself out of bed then force himself to drive thirty minutes into the city. A lot of people face this day-to-day as they work in jobs they don’t really enjoy. But we do what we have to do.

Corbin had to make a hard decision about something that was adding to his depression about facing each day.

He’d finally admitted he was gay to Pamela (ex-wife), his parents, and siblings. According to his therapist, a huge breakthrough…. Taking the next step scared the hell out of him. Yet he couldn’t keep avoiding it. He had to get back into the dating game, although he faced a completely different game than he’d ever participated in before…. He’d honestly tried to shove his secret desires aside and make the marriage work…. She’d tried, too…. They still loved each other, but they couldn’t be man and wife….

He was scared shitless. Imagining was one thing; actually doing it something completely different…. He needed to buck up and go have his first time alone with a man.

I hoped at this point that the reader could see what kind of man he was. Corbin cared about his ex-wife, about what his family thought of him, and he’d held back who he truly was for as long as he could. He doesn’t want anyone hurt, except that he has been the one suffering most and he needs to fix that matter.

The second hero in the story, Matt, has also dealt with many stressful issues over the years. He didn’t have the support of his family as a teenager when he’d admitted he was gay. He’d had to leave home and start over, but he’d found his way and he’d found a mate to share life with for the rest of his days. But his lover died. Now, it hurt soul deep to live like this, alone, with no one to go home to. No one to share the ups and downs of his days with. He needed to once again start over.

By now the reader knows the emotional conflicts both men face; understand how hard it is for them to take this next step in their lives. Starting Over is part of the 1Night Stand series, in which Madame Eve has a high-end dating service that arranges special matches…with the unsaid hope that the matches will be for longer than just the one night. Corbin and Matt both decided to try this service. Neither man was looking for something permanent. They both simply wanted to take that next step in their lives: one to enter a lifestyle completely foreign to him, one to heal and move on toward another relationship someday.

This is where I tried to kick up the intensity, pull the reader further into how the characters feel about and face the initial pivotal point of the story. In their first meeting, Corbin is way out of his comfort zone. “I hope I don’t disappoint you…. I’ve never…well, never been with a man.” Matt has been concerned, as well as excited, about being with a virgin gay man. The admission took guts. Until that moment, Matt hadn’t really intended to actually have sex with the date he’d been matched with, although he’d toyed with the idea. Now, he intended to be Corbin’s first male lover.

Besides pumping up the emotional intensity, I heated up the sexual interest while still playing on the wariness of this new experience. He (Corbin) tried not to stare at Matt’s obvious erection, tried not to worry if he could take all of it. Take all of it? Damn. He’d entered uncharted territory. A place he’d fantasized about, but hadn’t ever really thought he would arrive. And from Matt’s side…The photo he’d seen of Bradley didn’t do him justice. It seemed so wrong to ever hide those broad shoulders, the amazing pecs, and incredible six-pack beneath a suit, even an obviously expensive, tailored one. He longed to smooth his hands over what he saw, feel the muscles beneath his palms, play with the nipples and the spattering of dark hair on his chest. He wanted to….

Then we move to the next pivotal step, the next highly emotional time where something is actually going to happen between the two men. “Truth time. I’m not positive how all of this will work, but I need you to fuck me.” He (Corbin) glanced down at his thick shaft and back at Matt. “As long as I can return the favor.” Keeping in mind that Matt is an experienced gay man, he is dealing with his own issues. Lust fired through him. He wanted Corbin, ached for him. Somehow he had to find the inner strength to take his time, to not scare the hell out of him.

Heating up the intensity of the situation even more, Corbin makes his decision. “Let’s do it.” He would have a cock rammed into his ass for the first time in his life. Matt was ready to comply after he prepared the other man. This was Corbin’s first time. He needed to be tolerant, although it strained the limits of his patience.

Okay, I’ve shown you how the intensity of emotions and physical needs is established with excerpts from Starting Over. I’m hoping your interest was sparked into wanting to read the story and find out more about how these two special men faced their needs and moved forward in their lives. I’m going to leave you hanging here to read their ending, their happily ever after.
