After far too much lackluster sex with her now-ex-boyfriend, Kristen Locke isn’t just ready to try something new, she’s ready to try everything. And as luck would have it, two of her good friends are more than willing to introduce her to the kinkier side of life: Experienced dominant Scott Moore wants to bring out the submissive in her. Neighbor and voyeur Matt Sommers quite literally sees the exhibitionist in her.
Little by little, they open up a whole new world to her, and Kristen’s about to learn that love can be found in the most unusual places…

There is no way people would go to the lengths they do to get sex if it was really this bad.
That’s what Marisa is thinking after yet another frustrating night. She doesn’t want a relationship. She doesn’t want love, at least not right now. What she does want is some of the hot sex that everyone else raves about…and she doesn’t know where to start.
Enter Darren Knight, Marisa’s best friend and longtime crush. Offering a casual sexual apprenticeship, he helps Marisa gain the confidence to ask for and get what she wants. A sizzling new world opens up for her, including BDSM, stripteases – and Darren’s sexy brother, Eric.
But can she take her newfound confidence to the next level and live out her ultimate fantasy?

That was...unexpected. :D

Stay tuned for more WIP Wednesday!“It’s your call.” He kissed me lightly, and slid his hands up to cup the sides of my neck. “As far as I’m concerned, you could cover yourself in burlap, and I’d still marry you.”
Grinning, I wrapped my arms around his waist. “Burlap would be a little itchy, don’t you think?”
“Probably.” His lip brushed mine. “Just means you won’t want to wear it very long, which is fine by me.”
I laughed and drew back. “So you want me to wear something uncomfortable so I’ll want to get naked faster?”
He shrugged. “Shortest distance between dressed and naked—”
I rolled my eyes and playfully pulled out of his grasp. “Scott Moore, you are so predictable.”
“Predictable.” He gasped and put a hand to his chest. “Well, I never.”
“Whatever.” I kissed him lightly. “I need to finish changing out of my work clothes.”
A toothy grin prompted me to roll my eyes again.
“And into something more comfortable,” I said.
The grin broadened.
“God, you’re incorrigible.”
"Light Switch is a great book about Kristen's exodus from plain dry toast sex to drippy, gooey syrup coated French toast sex."
This is a strong story, with very real and believable conflicts. As far as I can judge, the medical details are absolutely correct, and the job – related background regarding paramedics felt well-researched and authentic. [...] this was a great, skillfully written read with a realistic, gripping plot and well – wrought, well-developed characters. Highly recommended.
And Stephantois at Whipped Cream Erotic Romance Reviews has given Damaged Goods 4.5 out of 5 cherries:
"If you’re looking for an erotic romance that’s a little different, I’d say check this title out."
That's all for now -- plenty more in the offing, so check back often!
Naturally, I'll be giving away some copies soon, but I was just excited as all hell to actually hold copies in my dirty little paws. These are my 7th and 8th paperbacks, and it still never gets old.
I still can't help squeeing a little when I look at it...
So now all of my husband's stuff has been bumped off the top of the bookcase. He doesn't mind. He's a good sport.
(Yes, his Legos have been relegated to the second shelf and below)

From the review:"I’m not sure which two books I’m going to have to kick out of my top ten list in order to fit these [Light Switch & Reconstructing Meredith] in, but they’re up near the top."The entire review is here.
"Two great main characters of Scott and Meredith with good side characters of Krissy and Matt. The story was brilliantly told from both sides and allowed us to really immerse ourselves in Scott and Meredith’s lives."Definitely a great review day!
"It’s a novel that will have you reading it again and again and again. These are characters that stay with you, and this is a story that resonates on the deepest levels of your soul."The entire review is here.
Also, for those of you who enjoyed the book, Scott Moore & Co. will be back in early March in the sequel, Reconstructing Meredith. Cover art and links coming soon.
I loved the way Ms. Gallagher explained BDSM as being a teasing of the senses whether from pain, heat, cold, or even tickling. There are so many facets of the BDSM lifestyle that I did not realize or understand until reading Light Switch.The entire review is here.
