What a Busy Month

Another busy month, but I don't mind. Thank you to everyone who has not only commented on my blog, but has visited me on other blogs this month. It's always nice to see a friendly face (comment) out there.

As this month comes to a close, I realized a few things:

  • There's nothing better than being a writer
  • Blogging can be fun and time consuming
  • Edit's make me a stronger writer

I had a lot of fun this month with all the blogs and the comments.

So tell me what did you do this month that was fun?

Welcome to Sayde Grace


Tell us a little about yourself.

Well I’m Sayde Grace, J okay so I guess you all wanted more than just my name huh? All right, well I write erotic romance for The Wild Rose Press that feature cowboys and cowgirls . My newest release however is not a cowboy book, instead I sold a werewolf romance to Siren which comes out on February 23.

I’m married with two children, four horses, eight dogs and a ton of deer who eat corn from my yard every night. I always get asked to tell people one or two things about myself that no one else knows. Recently I let it slip that I love watching Star Trek so I can’t use that secret again since it’s no longer a secret. So for you all I’ll tell a secret on my husband. He’s terrified of spiders, I’m not. The evil person that I am tends to grab granddaddy long leg spiders and chase him with them J childish, yes, fun yes!

What do like the most and the least about writing?

Every day life can be hard, sometimes beyond hard. When things are going bad for me I love to sit down with a book and lose myself in a world that relieves some of the stress in my life. To be able to bring someone a few minutes of relaxation or relieve some of their stress is what I love about writing. I’m honored and humbled to be able to create worlds which pull people away from a stressful day.

Give us a peek into your latest published work?

My last release is Untamable, the first book in my Moonlight Cravings Series.

Waking up tattooed and mated to her best friend, Alpha werewolf Jasper Gandillion was the perfect morning after for Siddalee Brighton. But she never realized what belonging to the animal within him would mean until he marked her in a show of passion and dominance awakening the werewolf inside her.

What’s next on the writing horizon for you?

Well, by the time this interview is posted my newest book in my Built Cowgirl Tough series will be in my editor’s inbox. In Corralled, my heroine Saige Thomely is trying to save her family from losing their house. By doing so, she offers herself to be bareback rider and secret millionaire Chet Haskins. Chet has been in love with Saige for months but knows he can’t force her into loving him. Yet when the opportunity arises to help her, he sees his chance to show her he cares for her. But the past still haunts them both. Saige is still heartbroken from the death of her fiancĂ©e while Chet has no idea what unconditional love means. After that story I’ll complete the final book in that series and then move on to a new paranormal suspense series entitled, Daughters of Lilith.

Is there anything you want to tell readers?

Oh man, that’s a tough question. I should be able to think of just one thing to say to readers but you know, I can’t think of anything to say besides thank you all so much. If it weren’t for the people buying and reading our books we wouldn’t have the opportunity to write. And as a writer, I appreciate reviews. Even if it’s not a review that says, “That’s the best book ever! Give this woman a million dollars right now!”.

Here's an excerpt of Sayde's lastest work:

“Are you ready now?” His tone was low, rumbling, and more than anything, sexy as hell.

More than ready. “Yes,” she whispered, barely able to contain her body or mind.

In fact, she’d been ready to give herself to him for years. She’d prayed that one day he’d come back to her so she could. Even being mad at him for not coming home earlier to claim her, she still wanted him like never before. Her palms cupped his head and pulled him to meet her lips.

He jerked away. “I don’t know how gentle I can be. The beast inside me has waited so long to have you.”

She scooted away from him to see his gorgeous body. Sidda licked her lips at the sight of his hardened nipples, kiss-swollen lips, and even more swollen cock. “I guess it’s a good thing I don’t want gentle. Your beast isn’t the only one who’s waited.”

She ran her hand across his defined chest. His body arched under her hands. His touch held a power over her, one that commanded her to submit and beg for more from him. By the way his body responded to her touch, she knew she held a power over him too. It was the power to make him dominant. While he could make her submit, she could make him dominate. It struck her then how perfectly made for each other they truly were.

Heat from his body scorched hers. “When I’m pushing inside you, I want you to mark me too. The bond isn’t finished until you do.”

She nodded, even though she had no idea what the hell he’d said. She’d caught something about marking him, but the lust filling her brain clouded it.

Her stomach quivered with his touch as he skimmed his fingertips over it to the hem of her tee shirt. “Don’t move. Let me see you, all of you.” He tugged the shirt over her head.

The warm air from the fire did nothing to keep her from shivering. Sidda’s normal, sane reaction would have been to grab the blanket to cover up, but she didn’t feel sane. His wildness made her wild, uninhibited. She flattened her palms over his solid chest to caress him. Dark brown hair jostled with a shake of his head. He leaned forward, his lips trailing from her neck to the top of her breast, while one hand moved to the other breast. She gulped. Aching and heavy, her breasts begged for his touch.

She moaned, arched her back, thrusting her breasts into his touch.

His rumbled growl sent shivers down her spine. “Don’t move.” The rough voice didn’t quite sound like his.

“You’ve…got…to be kid…ding.” She squirmed, craving to be closer to him.

His entire body trembled. “The beast.”

“I don’t give a flying fuck about your beast.”

Neon green eyes bore down at her. “You’d better care, because he’s screaming to flip you over and fuck you so hard you won’t be able to walk tomorrow.”

God help her, she wanted him to do it. She wanted to be on all fours, him towering over her, thrusting inside her. She wanted to rest her head against his shoulder, expose her throat for him while he took her. That’s exactly what she wanted.

He growled, yanking her pants and underwear off. They went flying across the room to land in the fireplace.

“Hey!” She shoved at him to move so she could try to rescue them.

“Forget them. If I have to buy you a thousand pairs, I’ll make it up to you. But not right now. I’ve got something entirely different in mind.” He winked, easing some of her shyness.

She still had to fight the urge to cover herself, but this was Jasper. The man she’d fantasized about for years, the man she loved. The wolf who she knew would never let her go, never hurt her, and most of all never stop loving her.

Release Day - Quick Silver Ranch:Roped And Ready


It's here and I can hardly believe it.

Here's the blurb for Quick Silver Ranch: Roped and Ready

Quick Silver Ranch is no ordinary dude ranch.

After Becca Dalton finds her fiancé in bed with her boss, she ends the ill-fated engagement on the spot and quits her job. She heads to Quick Silver Ranch, looking to regroup before an interview for the job of her dreams--an executive position at a five-star hotel.

Becca's best-laid plans are ruined when she discovers the exclusive ranch is for consenting couples who spend their days and nights exploring their most wicked sexual fantasies. For Becca to remain at the ranch and take advantage of all the arousing activities, she needs a partner.

Her sexy college lover and part owner of the ranch, Tyler Carson, is willing to break all the rules, partner up with Becca and have her roped and ready for a week of unimaginable pleasure. But is a week enough to satisfy his desire for Becca?

It's February

I'm having a little trouble believing its February already. It seems like Christmas and New Years was just yesterday.

January was a busy month, edits on the next book, then getting promotional material together for the release of: Quick Silver Ranch: Roped and Ready, plus the day job.

I worked a little on my new WIP, and have the last WIP back from my critique group. In Feb. I need to be a bit more disciplined about my writing, I'm usually very good at the beginning of the year.

For all of you reading my blog, I'm going to be on several different blogs this month so keep your eyes open. I will post on my blog where I am with a link.

Also, I'm now blogging with a group, we're called Wild And Wicked Cowboys, you can click here and see the blog. I'm thrilled to be working with these talented ladies. My blog days are the 9th and the 29th of the month.
