Yikes! I just hit PUBLISH by mistake on my vampire story for Halloween!! Sorree! Ignore!

Hello all!

It seems everyone is publishing a new book at the moment and everyone wants to tell us about it. 

Today I welcome multi-published author Anya Richards to my blog as part of her blog tour presented by Romance Book Haven.

For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Anya Richards, author of a wide variety of erotic romance and erotica titles, some under my other penname, Anya Delvay. In my catalogue you’ll find contemporary, historical, paranormal/fantasy and M/M titles… I go wherever the muse leads me, because I’m easy that way *grin*!

A transplant, I’m very thankful for the wide experiences life has given me, since they’re all used as fodder for my books. Originally from the Caribbean, I’ve traveled a fair amount and now live in Canada. After a slew of jobs, from vet assistant to jewelry sales, I’ve settled into the role of part time law clerk and author, with the author job definitely taking precedence, especially in my heart.

I look for inspiration wherever I can find it. I love nature and am incredibly curious about pretty much everything, especially what makes people tick. Really and truly, that’s what lies at the very heart of every good book, movie, story—no matter how many explosions there are, how many murders, or bouts of sex, or car chases, if we don’t sort of understand and feel for the characters, it all falls flat. A good book really doesn’t need a lot of fluff if it has soul!

My usual modus operandi when I want to write is to chase everyone away and turn on some music. Of course my cats think that’s the perfect time to want affection, and I’m such a sucker I can’t chase them away, so I’ve become a competent one-handed typist. When I first started writing I needed silence, but now prefer music or something I can sort of ignore on the TV in the background. I wish I could say I can write anywhere, but I’ve learned I can’t write love scenes when I’m in public… even when I know no one can see the computer screen!

Writing quite simply completes me. It’s both a journey I’m compelled to take and a release from life’s stress. It allows me to live out some fantasies and is a way to get the characters to stop bugging the heck out of me by telling their stories. Writing is also a way for me to try to make sense of the world, and give sad stories a happy ending. And I think that’s something we all need to see regularly…

Bellissima Blurb:

Jane Rollins is anything but plain, but to keep her position as housekeeper to a wealthy family, she is content to hide her beauty behind a dull façade. This deception has become second-nature to her—until dance master Sergio Fontini waltzes into her life.

While the other inhabitants of the house see him as a foreigner and beneath their notice, Jane sees strength, barely leashed power, and an aura of iron control—an irresistible, arousing combination.

Sergio sees through Jane’s disguise to the woman beneath, and the desires in her veiled gaze call to him like the utterly irresistible strains of a beautiful symphony. The circumstances couldn’t be worse, for seducing her will endanger both their livelihoods.

Yet there are lessons he cannot resist teaching her, steps of a dance that crescendos to her final surrender…


ANYA RICHARDS
