kINKED Covers

by Cori Posted on February 21, 2019

kINKED, my steamy anthology about where kink and ink meet, came out in March 2017 with this cover:

I love this cover. Unfortunately it was a little too risque for Amazon so finding our book organically using their search engine was next to impossible.

But I loved our cover and didn’t want to change it.

However, whether we like it or not Amazon is king and it is important that people be able to find our book there without performing some sort of magic trick first. So I asked the cover artist, the amazing Amanda C. Davis, if she could help me out and badaboom badabing, just like that kINKED had a new cover. One that Amazon doesn’t want to hide.

Check it out:

So now if you’d like to pick up a copy on Amazon it should be much easier. But let me just give you direct links LOL

kINKED on Amazon

(US) (CA) (UK)

However, if you prefer the old cover you can still get that at Kobo.

Whichever cover people like better, I am pleased to have the chance to increase our audience and share this book with more readers who like steamy kinky short stories 🙂

New Orleans social climber, Cheyanne Murphey has worked too hard to let her fiancé’s wandering eye drag her name through the gutter, and she has the perfect solution to make him stay: an incantation from her deceased Granny’s spell book. Family legend says the Murphey women’s magic is cursed, but that is a risk Cheyanne is willing to take.

When middle sister Marchland’s heart is also broken by a man who does her wrong, not even witnessing disastrous results of Cheyanne’s attempt at spellcasting will stop her from using her family’s powers to exact revenge. With the help of her sisters, Marchland casts a spell to teach the scumbag a lesson he won’t forget. Unfortunately, neither will she.

The youngest Murphey sister, Bradley, would be happy to never work a spell again but when she accidentally kills a man she has no choice but to turn to her family’s cursed magic for help. The wayward spell teaches Bradley the hard lesson that sometimes it’s best to let dead things rot.

With all three sisters in deep trouble, they seek help in the form of the Elder-Witch, a sorceress who claims she can fix their mistakes… but magic always comes with a price, and this one may be more than the Murphey sisters are willing to pay.

Cover Reveal: These Hollow Hearts

by Cori Posted on January 29, 2019

Last year I had the pleasure of editing and publishing the Enchanted series which included three stories each by three awesome writers.

This year we’ve bundled the three stories by Em Shotwell together and are releasing them by themselves as These Hollow Hearts.

Check out this cover!

New Orleans social climber, Cheyanne Murphey has worked too hard to let her fiancé’s wandering eye drag her name through the gutter, and she has the perfect solution to make him stay: an incantation from her deceased Granny’s spell book. Family legend says the Murphey women’s magic is cursed, but that is a risk Cheyanne is willing to take.

When middle sister Marchland’s heart is also broken by a man who does her wrong, not even witnessing disastrous results of Cheyanne’s attempt at spellcasting will stop her from using her family’s powers to exact revenge. With the help of her sisters, Marchland casts a spell to teach the scumbag a lesson he won’t forget. Unfortunately, neither will she.

2019 Goals

by Cori Posted on January 11, 2019

Every year I set some goals for myself and share them on my blog. The hope is that not only will they help keep me focused with my eye on the prize, but by sharing them it creates a kind of accountability as well.

This year I’m trying to decrease my overall workload a bit, and my alter ego has a fair amount on her plate so I’m going to go easier on myself here than I have in previous years.

2019 Goals

Compile and publish a collection of the ‘She’s on the Bottom’ stories
Finish writing and editing the third (currently untitled) Prairie Magic novel
Write the next part of the Running on Empty series
Publish THH (Full title to be announced in time) via P&K
Publish LGLFL (Full title to be announced in time) via P&K
Publish DDL (Full title to be announced in time) via P&K
Publish Haunted via P&K
Set some concrete, measurable 5 and 10 year goals

That’s it, and that’s all. But that’s lots. Especially that last one. I feel like I spend a lot of time going year to year and it’s time to lift my eyes a bit higher and see a bigger picture in order to make those yearly goals really add up to mean something.

Wish me luck!
