Song of the Siren has just been released by Venus Press!

 

When Apollo, the Roman sun-god, hears Serena Montefiori sing, his lust is overpowering. He cannot comprehend why her voice intoxicates him, but Serena knows. She is a siren of legend, born of the ancient race of seductive nymphs who used song to lure besotted sailors to their doom.  She has no intention of ensnaring Apollo or any other man. She is a virgin and under the protection of Diana, the moon-goddess and Apollo's twin sister.

 

But Apollo will not give up so easily. He yearns to possess Serena and recklessly promises Diana anything in return for the beautiful opera singer. But when the price is higher than anything Apollo ever expected, he must decide if he is willing to give up his dearest asset for Serena's, in a sacrifice which stuns the entire pantheon.  

 

 

 

Hot Pursuit, my erotic contemporary novella, is available for purchase from Liquid Silver Books!

 

    

 

     Corporate lawyer Blake Richards has worked hard to make a name for himself, and he is determined to protect it at all costs. 

 

     Enter Katerina Berkeley, a brilliant new intern at Blake's firm. 

 

     The bold, fiery hellion arouses a powerful desire, but Blake has far too much at stake to give in to temptation. But Kat is just as determined to win Blake as he is to resist her, and when Kat's supervisor goes on maternity leave and assigns the interns to Blake in her stead, Kat sees this as the perfect opportunity to seduce him in her own unique style.  He might dominate the boardroom, but the bedroom is Kat's territory.  Business or pleasure becomes a moot point as the two engage in a sensuous, sizzling dance of passion. 

 

     Before long, Blake discovers he wants more than possession of Kat's body.  The rules of any game dissolve when love enters the equation, and he finds himself in hot pursuit of her heart...

From Glenda K. Bauerle at The Romance Studio, 5 hearts!

 

"This is a wonderful story of two dominant personalities learning that trust and control can be easier to relinquish than one might expect, when that person means something very special to you. Wonderful story!"

 

From Michelle at Fallen Angels Reviews, 5 angels!

Reviews for One Torrid Night!

 

From Wendi at Fallen Angels Reviews, 5 angels!

 

"I was entranced as the characters came alive in One Torrid Night to tempt me into reading page after page to find out what happens. Lily Ashford is a talented and skilled writer who puts feelings into words that amaze and entertain you...I will now be on the look out for them as they are sensuous pleasing and tempting to taste buds."

 

From Romance Divas, 5 kisses!


"...well-developed characters and a well thought out plot... The hero and heroine made you root for them and their fight to be together... This one is a definite scorcher. If you are not a fan of Ashford after One Torrid Night then shame on you!" 

 

From Tracey Marsac at Romance Junkies, 4 blue ribbons!

 

"...ONE TORRID NIGHT is a delightful mix of reality and the supernatural..."


 

 

Excerpt, "One Torrid Night," copyright 2005 by Lily Ashford

 

 

     He couldn't move.

     What the hell?  Kelton blinked and shook his head to clear the sleep from his eyes.  What was going on?

     After a moment, he realized his wrists were chained to the bedposts. 

     Shit.

     Suddenly alert, he sprang straight up, forgetting for a moment that he wasn't fully mobile.  He was quickly reminded when sharp metal edges cut into his skin, jerking him back down among the pillows.  He cursed at the pain as he shifted on the slippery satin, trying to settle himself more comfortably.  But in this position, it was damned hard.

     A warm breeze drifted over his body; someone had opened a window. Antonia.  His senses tingled.  That meant that she had been in the room.  She had to have noticed him lying on the bed  The wind caressed his bare legs.  He furrowed his brow.  Where the hell were his pants?

     "Ah, the prisoner is awake," a low, feminine voice came from the shadows.

     He started in surprise.  Panic rose within him as he struggled to sit up, but once again, his bonds rendered him helpless. 

     "I wouldn't try that, if I were you.  You'll only hurt yourself."

     The speaker moved into the light, but she was not Antonia.  A tall, blond woman stood before him.  Her entire being shone with a golden beauty, a Valkyrie come to life. 

     "Valencia."  His eyes narrowed.
