Guest Author Desiree Holt Day!




Desiree Holt is joing us on the blog today. I have been looking forward to this day! She has stopped by to share a little about her and her books.

This is one author that I can honestly say that I have followed. When I first started buying EBooks I found the Total-E-Bound site. The same site that would later become my publisher. Desiree Holt was one of the first authors I read when I stared my EBook selection.

Two of her early work stood out for me. Her books Crude Oil and Afternoon delight still get opened and read from time to time. Crude Oil is actually a personal favorite of mine.

Desiree was also one of the Authors that contributed in the Caught in the Middle Anthology which I was part of. Her story Swingtime was one of the best in the entire book. If you are a member of my yahoo group you might have seen my review of it back when the book came out.

I loved loved loved swingtime. I wanted to BE Lanie. So if you have yet to try out a book by Desiree I don't know what you are waiting for!!! Go, hurry, and I promise you will find a new favorite author.

Here is a little about Desiree-

Desiree Holt has lived a life of excitement that brings the color to her writing. She was a summer fishing guide, a summer field hand where she was one of only three women working, a member of a beginning ski team that skied in competition (and no, no broken bones!). /she spent several years in the music business representing every kind of artist from country singer to heavy metal rock bands. For several years she also ran her own public relations agency handling any client that interested her. She loves to tell the story of sending a singer up in a hot air balloon singing “Up, Up and Away in My Beautiful Balloon” and stopping traffic for four miles in every direction. Before and between her two marriages she dated enough hunks to fill up two he-man calendars, one of whom taught her to shoot so beware, she’s always armed. She’s kept a fresh look at erotic romance by making sure the sensuality factor in her private life is always high. She’s married to her own personal alpha hero who helps her with that.

And Desiree has also agreed to share an excerpt with us. This book sounds oh so good I have already added it to my TBR list.

Rodeo Heat


Blurb
It could have been the animalistic heat of the rodeo, or the pin with special powers that the old woman had all but forced her to buy. But whatever it was, within seconds of meeting rodeo rider Ben Lovell, Grace Delany safe world crumbled in a voluptuous explosion of lust. Every night was something new. From the handcuffs to the intriguing sex toys to the taking of her virgin ass, , Grace gave in to it all, relishing her body’s. As Ben Lowell led her from one earth-shattering climax to another, as her body softened and opened to him, her juices lubricating the way, all she could do was hang on for dear life and follow his lead. But when it was over, could she really walk away from the man who had taken her on an outrageous journey of sexual self-discovery where there were no limits or boundaries?.

Excerpt
He moved his mouth over her body as if drawing a map with it, tasting every nook and crevice, seeking her pleasure spots and dwelling a long time on them. His open-mouthed kisses on her heated skin sent shafts of electricity through her, igniting nerves already snapping and firing.
His cock pressed against the soft skin of her inner thigh and her hands suddenly itched to touch it and hold it. Pulling Ben’s head up from its drifting path down to her pussy, she smiled at him. “Stop.”
His eyebrows raised. “Stop? Am I doing something wrong? Something you don’t like? Just tell me—”
“No. You’re doing everything just right. But I want to play too.” She pushed at his shoulders.
“And just what is it you want to do?” he asked, his eyes bright with curiosity as he rolled onto his back.
“This.”
Wondering where this spurt of boldness had come from, she shifted onto her knees next to him, her gaze riveted to his erection which pointed directly at her. Tentatively she reached out a finger to touch the bead of fluid sitting like a viscous marble atop the slit. Rubbing it back and forth along the velvet surface, she watched the thick stalk bob under her touch and saw Ben’s thigh muscles tighten.
She hadn’t done this since Joe’s death. The few men she’d had sex with hadn’t appealed to her this way at all. Sometimes she wondered if they really appealed to her in any way. Worried that maybe she just wasn’t a sexual person.
No. Wait. Then she wouldn’t be where she was doing what she was. Right?
Inquisitively, she bent her head and licked the surface of the purple head with the tip of her tongue, swiping it back and forth two or three times, loving the slightly salty taste of the fluid and the sensation of the soft skin against her tongue. Her fingers barely wrapped around the thick length of him but she felt the steel beneath the supple covering. She unclasped him and ran one finger the length of the heavy vein, feeling the blood pulsing through it.
“Am I doing this right?” she asked, her voice tremulous, unable to look at him as she waited for his answer.
“Are you kidding?” Ben asked in a strangled voice, one large hand coming up to squeeze her buttocks. “I think you’re trying to torture me.”
Grace’s laugh held just a hint of uncertainty. “Just finding out what you feel like. How you feel.”
His hand moved in slow strokes on the cheek of her ass. “Surely this isn’t the first one you’ve ever seen or felt,” he joked.
“Believe it or not, the first in bright light. At least for longer than I want to remember.”
Because the others didn’t bear looking at. Except for Ben.


And I'm not the only one who loves Desiree. Check out this review for Rodeo Heat-

Rodeo Heat by Desiree Holt

Reviews for TRS by Shannon
There are two words to describe this story, "absolutely stunning." Ms. Holt continues to amaze with her talent for creating rich, intriguing stories that not only captivate the reader but ones that stand the test of time. Rodeo Heat is a sensual, emotional, and poignant love story that seems to rope the reader into the pages, holding them hostage to the passionate delights that abound. The ambience of the wildness of the rodeo and its riders act as the perfect backdrop for this plot. Ben and Grace are characters that really seem to come to life with their complex, endearing, and heartbreaking qualities that will have the reader charmed. The strong character development compliments the connection and interaction between the Ben and Grace, which is fully developed and very believable. The secondary characters are a treat and work well to move the story forward. Bubbling with passion the scenes of intimacy are filled with emotion and gripping hot sexual delights that are some of the most arousing scenes the reader will ever read! Be warned the author leaves nothing to the imagination! The older woman/younger man combo is a delight and this author does a wonderful job of portraying the passion, emotion and connection between them without redundantly dwelling on the age difference. This is one story the reader will be sad to see end!
Hold on for a wild ride with Rodeo Heat! - Shannon

Crissy it was nice to read what Diree Holt had to say and I do like her books but read only the print ones so please don't include me in the e book contest. I really like the sounds of the book but my computer doesn't want to accept ebooks for some reason. susan L.
