Dark Velvet

That’s Erotica Reviews Dark Velvet by Lisa Carlisle

“Carlisle gives readers a blend of the paranormal and the erotic. This novella was a very enjoyable read for me. The setting on DeRoche Island was beautiful, and felt like it was from another time. The chemistry between Savannah and Antoine is sure to draw the reader in as well. 
Dark Velvet is the first novella in the Chateau Seduction series. I am very excited to read Carlisle’s next installment!”

My Sexy Saturday – Dark Velvet by Lisa Carlisle #mysexysaturday

Welcome to My Sexy Saturday. This week I’m sharing seven sentences from Dark Velvet, the first part of a paranormal erotic romance series set at an art colony on a remote New England island. I’m working on edits for the next part, Dark Muse.

 

The rising tension and resolution from the violin and cello underscored her tumultuous emotions.

She smiled at him briefly and focused on the musicians, aware of how her heartbeat had escalated. When she glanced again at Antoine, he still watched her unabashed, as if unconcerned about what the others would think. He took a sip of Porto, nodded her way, and then returned his attention to the musicians. She sat up straighter and crossed her legs at the ankles, then uncrossed them, and crossed them again.

The attraction was becoming more difficult to ignore. In light of how he breached the physical distance by touching her so earlier, she feared she’d be unable to keep her desires hidden much longer.

Dark Velvet, Book 1 in Chateau Seductions #mfrwauthor #gargoyle #vampire

Somehow I’ve found myself working on three projects simultaneously, all in various stages of writing, revising, and polishing. I’m happy to note that one of these projects is Dark Muse, part two of a new series I’ve begun called Chateau Seductions. The setting at a castle at a remote New England island is so captivating, I love losing myself in the story. The first part of the series, Dark Velvet, is out now and it’s received some reviews that make me smile. 

Be sure to enter your email on the right to hear when Dark Muse or other new releases are available. Some really cool stuff coming out with other authors this year.
