The wait is over! For everyone who’s been waiting for Deke and Luc and all the sexy stuff that goes with them…it’s time!! Run out and grab your copy. Hope everyone enjoys! If you post a review on one of the Amazon sites or Barnes & Noble.com and send me a link, I’ll put your name in a drawing for a Shayla tote bag with goodies.

With a lot of help from Sylvia Day and Nikki Duncan, I have a new Doomsday Brethren site up to count us down to the release of TEMPT ME WITH DARKNESS. The site has LOTS more information than ever before. Take a peek!

I found out recently that Romantic Times Bookclub awarded DECADENT a Top Pick for October. It’s the only erotic Top Pick for the month! I’m thrilled and bouncing off the walls. (It’s kind of scaring the cat. ) But, for me, this is so cool! Yipee!!

It’s official! Pocket will be releasing the next two Shayla Black erotic romances, starting in April 2009 with DELICIOUS. I’ll follow that either late 2009/early 2010 with another to-be-titled book. Heroes in both of these books are characters you’ll meet in DECADENT, and I’m so excited to have the opportunity to share them with readers!

A few new wonderful reviews to report!! Can I share? (Though you probably couldn’t stop me.)

WICKED TIES (w/a Shayla Black - Berkley Heat - Available now!)
5 out of 5! “Ms. Black has given us an incredible story in Wicked Ties… This is definitely not a book to be missed.” ~ A Romance Review

And a Waldens/Borders Romance Expert/Bookseller, who said of my upcoming book DECADENT (w/a Shayla Black - Berkley Heat - October 2)…

“I loved Wicked Ties, so I didn’t think that I could enjoyed Decadent even more, AND I DID!!! Decadent put you on my forever list of auto-buy authors (and for that matter an auto-recommend to my customers)!!!! You truly have a gift for writing - and writing HOT! ;-) There are very few erotic romance authors out there who write such complex characters (and storyline) without making it seem contrived! Bravo to you for being one of THE *best* out there! You are so talented in writing true emotion.“

DECADENT has its very own trailer now!! You can view it on my blog or YouTube. Comment on my blog about the trailer in the next few days, and you might win a prize… Enjoy!

Squee!! Finally, DECADENT is available for pre-order at Barnes & Noble’s online store. If this is your preferred online bookstore, click here to make sure you get your copy of this juicy and…well, downright decadent tale!

DECADENT Reviews!

Well, I’ve received a few reviews for DECADENT and I’m thrilled to say they are fab so far. Fingers crossed for the rest, but here are a few snippets:

5 out of 5! “Decadent was a scorching, rollercoaster read…undoubtedly one of the hottest books this year! But underneath it all, Shayla Black has nestled one of the most touching stories of romantic love you will read this year. Decadent will sweep you up and run you through a gamut of emotions - frustration, desire, fear, love, and more – until it finally leaves you ultimately satisfied.” ~ Jennifer, CK2S Kwips and Kritiques

5 out of 5! “In DECADENT, Shayla Black has penned a truly naughty and magnificent tale… it’s sensuality and expertly written storyline are the sweetest indulgence…” ~ Natasha, Romance Junkies

“Decadent by Shayla Black is a red hot read that will leave you in heart-pounding bliss. The sexual tension grips you in the first chapter and doesn’t let go until the last page. Decadent is an erotic thrill that takes you to the edge of decadence again and again and leaves you screaming for more of Shayla Black’s stories. It’s an exciting and recommended read from me.” ~ Susan, Night Owl Romance

To celebrate, I’m putting some goodies up on my blog today!

NEW INFORMATION PAGE!

I’ve put up a teaser page about my upcoming Doomsday Brethren paranormal romance series here. The first book releases from Pocket in September 2008. The book itself will have a title soon, but for now, you can visit for a little sneak peek. I’ll be updating the site as I get my hands on appropriate information. Look for a full site next year!
