Greetings everyone. Happy Holidays and best wishes for the upcoming new year. As a New Year’s and Holiday Gift, I’ve made available my Christmas/Holiday erotic romance short, “I’ll Be Home for Christmas” on Smashwords. I’m only going to have limited titles in the Smashwords store, and this will be the first. Many of my other titles are already available at Barnes and Noble and Amazon. So, I don’t feel the need to list them all there. But I thought a nice gift would be to start with this title as a gift for my readers.

Here is a run down of the story:

Theresa had decided to stay home for Christmas.

Who needed the family stress? She was going to be the tough, singleton on her own.

Then, he called.

Nick was home for the Holidays too. Why not get together for a little Christmas cheer? Turkey and cranberry sauce always tastes better when two are sharing a meal together. Or when it’s shared on each other. Theresa gets the best gift a girl could want. A man that wants her on Christmas Eve, and she can’t get enough. Nick unwraps her slowly, giving her something Santa never could.

I do like the way that Smashwords can make available multiple formats or just epub, which is best for most ereading formats. If you wish it for mobi, the Zon’s format, it is still available at Amazon for $0.99. Hey, I can’t make it free everywhere. A girl has got to eat. 😉

My giveaways of the past are likely going to fade away since between the pandemic and going wide with my titles, it’s not as cost affective to give away a lot of free titles. But every once in a while, I’ll likely put something up, like this title. It looks like Smashwords will be a great retailer to offer free giveaways through without a cost to myself. So, please follow and check back. Maybe I can see if other erotic and erotica writers would be interested in joining forces again and offering giveaways next year. We’ll have to see how it all pans out. But you know, the world gives you a pandemic and you just have to pivot.

Plus, if you’d like to try out an erotic romance, please try out Marilyn Vix’s title, “Love in One Act”. It’s a bit steam punky and Victorian, all with an erotic theme. It’s her offering for all of her followers and new readers this Holiday season. It is also available for free at Smashwords for a limited time. She’s my co-author for the series “Thankful in Vegas”.

***All deals end Jan. 1, 2023.

Here’s a few words about Marilyn Vix’s title:

Elizabeth Bonicetti, a Victorian London actress, is propositioned by a young man, Mr. Lionel Conner, to be his first, and to teach him the finer points of love to be ready for his new wife. Trying to not let her feelings get in the way, she is determined to teach the “lessons” without becoming attached. But she can’t help but fall for the young Airship captain. Determined to keep their relationship temporary, she continues with the “lessons” until their final consummation in which he reveals his secret. Can she still except him after this revelation? Or will she reject him for the secret he refuses to reveal.

Marilyn has a few more titles available on Smashwords than I do since she’s been around a bit longer. I take my hat off to her for all the initiative and inspiration she’s given me. It’s been a pleasure writing with her the last few years. You’ve got to check out her “Never Marry A Warlock” series. It’s a definite different take on the paranormal, Vegas style.

So, I wish the best for you and your family this Holiday Season. Best wishes for the New Year, and may 2023 be a triumph of a year for us all. Happy New Year!
