Rites of Spring Blog Hop

Brought to you by the lovely erotica authors Heather Long and Jessica E. Subject, the Rites of Spring Blog Hop. This hope is all about falling for the first time, as in, character firsts. You'll get to read excerpts of character's first all throughout this blog hop, many of them steamy so pull out that fan. ;)

And of course, there are giveaways! One at every blog stop in fact, and a grand prize giveaway of a Kindle Fire for first place, and a $50 Amazon gift certificate for second place! To see the full list of participants, read all the hot excerpts, and enter all the giveaways, click here or see below.

Here on my blog you can win an eBook of Valkyrie Slumbering. You must be 18 or older to enter. Before we get to the giveaway though, here is a steamy excerpt about Kyra's (the main character from Valkyrie Slumbering) first intimate moment with Grim:


“Would you help me with mine?” I breathe against his ear.
      He turns to face me, and my eyes are drawn to his broad, hard chest. Before he can see the way he affects me, I turn my back to him so he can reach the laces of my leather armor. It isn’t quite as concealing as his, but it covers the vitals. He works at the back laces, tugging them slowly. Cool evening air blows between the leather and my skin, raising bumps all along my back. His fingers follow the breeze up my tunic, leaving lines of heat on my bare skin. I pull the leather bustier off, followed by the tunic, my breasts relaxing in its absence. 
      I want his hands on more than just my back. Leaning into him, I nearly gasp at the feel of his hard, naked chest pressed against me. His hands snake under my tunic, across my belly, and up, so slowly up. At last those wonderfully rough hands cup beneath my breasts. His fingers work their way up around the swell. Gods, he moves so slow it makes me burn. I sit back into his lap, feeling his cock hard and eager against my butt. The feeling makes me moan.

  8. My favorite think about spring is the greenness of it. I get so tired of seeing everything barren and brown in the winter :(
