The Crazy Lady Authors have done it again with this perfectly imperfect box set of love stories gone wrong, gone crazy, and finally, gone straight to your heart! Sweet romances: Grandma would approve!
 
Erotically Incorrect is a collection of snort-worthy erotic moments gone every which way but right! It’s hot, sexy, sweaty, smelly…wait! What? It’s Erotically Incorrect, that’s what it is!

In case you missed it today, our very own Mistress of Steampunk and SciFi, author Holly Barbo, was hanging out and signing books at the Fairhaven Steampunk Festival & The Fantastical Mr. Flip's Carnival of Wonders and Curiosities in WA. Holly creates worlds everyone wants to visit, and they have their own intriguing, mysterious, and political dramas going on. I highly recommend Sunstone! She is now published with Paper Gold Publishing, and you can check out all of work by visiting her Amazon Page. Show Holly some love by leaving her a comment below.

Crazy Ladies Invade Hilton Head

6/12/2016

1 Comment

 
Twelve Crazy Ladies took over Hilton Head Island in South Carolina this weekend. There were drinks, laughs, and generalized debauchery on a grand scale that may or may not have included flirtations with hot waiters. I'm just sayin', if you see a Crazy Lady daintily dropping her napkin by her table, run! She's luring you in!

The generous, beautiful, and most kind queen of the sand and sea, Teri Riggs, offered up her home to Crazy Ladies from as far away as Ireland and Alaska, and as close as Texas. Check out the pictures provided below by Jennifer Bryan Yarbrough and Andrea Wood. (Hover over the images for captions)

Food equals love in my household, as it does in the homes of each of the Crazy Lady Authors. If we're cooking up vittles in the kitchen, if we're feeding you, it's because we love you (and don't want to be the only ones with a few extra pounds on our butts - yep, we have an ulterior motive, but mostly, we love you!)

Knowing this, we figure EVERYONE should own a copy of Cooking With The Crazy Lady Authors. This fun cookbook has a little bit of each our souls inside; family memories, kitchen mishaps, and recipes ranging from easy-peasy to fancy-shmancy to wild and wonderful wilderness grub. We've got you covered!

Grab a copy for mom, and while you're at it, get one for yourself. Laugh at our antics, cook up our recipes, and feel the love! (Bring your copy to one of our book signings, and we'll happily sign yours! Don't have a copy? We sell them at our signings too.)

Crazy Ladies Dominate San antonio!

2/7/2016

1 Comment

 
This was the largest gathering of Crazy Ladies in one city .....so far! (Hilton Head, SC, we are coming for you in June!) Listen, we gals had a blast, I tell ya! Life of the party much? Why yes, we are! At the 2nd annual Deep in the Heart Author Event, we shook hands, posed for pictures with Crazy Lady fans, and had a fantastic giveaway of Spurs tickets that ended in a heartwarming way. Our winner, Tyler Reynolds, was thrilled because he is going to get to take his dad to see the Spurs at the AT&T Center March 2nd to see the home team beat the Detroit Pistons (we're also psychic and know these things...).

At Cafe Ole on the Riverwalk, Crazy Lady Diane Rinella was surprised by a wide-eyed gentleman (coming out of the men's room) who came up behind her and shouted "Woooooo!" Scared the bejeesus out of her, and cracked us up. He may or may not have been previously enjoying the margaritas, and he may or may not have been someone's dad. Who knows? It was funny.

At the event, Kelly Cozzone spanked a Vampire Princess Rising (also known as author Jami Brumfield's sister, Robin, who played the part of the main character in Jami's second book in the Winters Saga. Jami led Kelly and Aubree Lane in a little impromptu line dancing, and Michele E. Gwynn adopted Alisa Mullen's son by default. Oh, and the gals posed with cover model Devon Ryan. He showed Michele his abs...because she was the only one bold enough to ask. No shame, that one! 

Next, Hilton Head, South Carolina for a little Crazy Lady R&R. More Crazy Ladies are coming...from Alaska (Cherime MacFarlane) and even from across the pond in the Emerald Isle (Ella Medler). There may be neighbor complaints and mugshots in our future. Sorry, Teri Riggs! We promise not to trash your lovely house or invite the entire beach to an on-the-spot house party. Maybe.

See how fun we are? Next time you see Crazy Lady authors coming to an author event near you, come out and see us! We LOVE our fans.

13 ~ Julie Elizabeth Powell
What is found within the depths of the human soul? Does wickedness linger, as if the Devil’s thumb is ready to pluck the strings of certain choices? And with the strumming, just how far will Evil spread? 
13 is the story of random souls pitted against the tragedy of the modern world. What is their connection, if any? Nameless; are these merely humans whose weaknesses force them to commit heinous crimes, or demons under the skin, aware of their sins yet indifferent to the outcome? 
Will they decipher the unknown and make it out alive? 
Who is watching, what is the end? 
13 examines the modern world, its failings, its image, its ever increasing race to destruction – its collapse of values meant to further mankind rather than annihilate. It questions choices, peering into the distorted ethics and morals of where humanity stands today, what it has lost and whether or not there is any hope for the future. If morals have become simplistic and vague, tainted intellectually and rigid, can it only give rise to succumbing to personal motives and flaws, focussing only on self-preservation? Or is it a result of what has been lost in the face of progress? Where such ideology needs re-evaluating; where tradition, continuity, conservation, stability and constraints on behaviour have great value...maybe progress is the expression of ruin after all? 
13 wallows in horror, not only in blood but the psychological neglect of why the modern world must be wary of its way forward and not succumb to self-interests, where greed, amongst other negative traits, is personified to such an extent that nothing is left to save us. 
13 could be seen as a résumé of failures, yet, for those who read it, maybe it will filter enough into consciousness that the tide may be turned. Or perhaps Destiny has other ideas? 
Warning: strong language and scenes of violence /horror/drugs/sex
Slots ~ R.E. Hargrave
You know the saying, ‘What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas’ . . . well, that’s not always true. Three travelers find themselves running to Sin City in an attempt to right a wrong, only to have it backfire—in a big way. Rated NC-17 for extremely graphic scenes. Please heed warning inside.
Warnings
First off, the musical inspiration for this horrific short story came from God Speed You Black Emperor, Dark Lotus, Type O Negative, and Alkaline Trio. If you are a child, elderly, or have a heart condition, then this story is probably not for you. If you cannot handle torture scenes and/or have a weak stomach, why are you here? This story is not for you. If you have any problems with language, nudity (and descriptions of such), drugs, forced sexual acts (including gore porn), maiming, torture, forced humiliation, self-mutilation, vomit, urine, blood, snakes, character death and more . . . then I cannot stress enough that this story is not for you.
Split ~ Michele E. Gwynn
Jennifer Jones suffered the loss of her parents in a car accident. Heaped upon her grief and survivor’s guilt is a debilitating layer of domestic abuse from her fiancé, Aaron. It’s all too much, and without warning, she snaps. Free from the moorings that bind us all to rational boundaries, Jennifer finds that stepping across the line and committing murder means she no longer needs to follow anyone’s rules but her own, but has she gone too far? Now that she’s tasted the heady power of controlling her own destiny, she can’t stop!
Down the rabbit hole she goes into a realm of psychotic darkness so deep, she may never find her way out again! Is murder Jennifer’s new reality or has reality skewed, tilting on its axis, writing its own story? Reality is in the eye of the deceiver, after all. Is this new reality real or has Jennifer Jones split?
No Caller ID ~ Ruby West Jerome's all charm, no substance. At best, he's a talented womanizer. His wife leads a long list of women scorned by him, and one of them carries a deep grudge. 
When his life takes a downward spiral, in a blur of binge drinking and hookups, the calls start. Someone's playing a tantalizing game with him, but who?

Secrets Room ~ Kim Faulks
Be prepared for the most haunting horror and suspense novel to hit the shelf in years… 
What would you do if you woke in a room filled with strangers, with no memory of how you got there, and no way out? 
Morgan Drimmel wakes to find herself in the midst of this nightmare. The gouged, blood-splattered walls scream of terror and torture, and the unrelenting light that shines between the cracks in the walls fills her with dread. 
When the others in the room wake, they form alliances, and Morgan finds herself drawn to rogue biker Slade Rivers. But dependence, for her, has always come with a deadly price. 
Those inside the room have secrets too; dark secrets they will go to any length to keep from getting out. When evil rears its ugly head, Morgan will not only have to fight to survive—she will also have to trust. 
This is THE book you shouldn't pass up!
Blood Crow ~ Cleve Sylcox
As Confederate and Union forces clash in and around the Missouri community of St. Charles, Constance McAdams fights a war of her own. Her mind has been fractured, her heart ravaged, and her soul nearly torn from its very existence. Her husband, Gavin, threatened by a corrupt sheriff and judge, is the binding that holds her together. With a blessing from an old Choctaw woman as her only weapon, she spirals into a maddening world of crows and spirits as she fights the forces pressing in around her.
Blood is Power ~ Ella Medler
In this second installment of his story, Nick Hunter proceeds to track down and eliminate every person involved in his son's kidnap. But where will the chase end? And has he bitten off more than he can chew? Nick discovers a tangled net of human trafficking and corruption, and world-class players with a penchant for disturbed obsessions. Gritty, dark, chock-full of suspense. Don't start reading if you cannot finish it in one sitting.
Duplicitous ~ Stephanie Nett It was meant to be an easy job; go to my sister’s and update their security system. My sister’s husband is handsome and rich and she lives the epitome of a perfect life. As I work, Reese drops a bombshell and things begin to spiral out of control at a rate far faster than I’m comfortable with. After waking covered in blood, I’m left to piece together the mystery of what happened before I go mad. Or die trying.
A Crystal Snowflake ~ Holly Barbo When Chayse’s friend is murdered before he can get protective custody, she and her department in Homeland Security are thrust into a race to stop a destructive cyber worm from wiping out all bank and stock market records during the Christmas break. The good news is there is an inoculating code which will stop the worm. The bad news is it is hidden in a special crystal concealed in the sculpted walls of a beautiful ice hotel in the lapland region of Sweden and the terrorists are searching for it too. As the snow flurries of November becomes frozen December each side rush to find the crystal…with entirely different goals. Will the Christmas holiday bring destruction for western financial systems?

Lost Shadows ~ Julie Elizabeth Powell
Not only had Adam lost his parents in a car crash, but he’d also forgotten who he was. Pamela is haunted by the patient who was murdered by her father. Barbara and Mike have mysterious secrets. Harry seeks solace at the bottom of a glass. And why is Mildred so afraid? While Helen’s mind gathers dust, Lizzie mourns the loss of her, and her husband. Both Penny and Jane are frantic to find their daughters, if in different ways. Rick wonders what to do about his family. And who is William? 
Most are strangers, all are haunted by darkness – does this unite them, or is it something they must do that will free them? 
Will they find what is lost?

Tropical Nightmares ~ Kelly Cozzone
Surviving numerous attempts on their lives including the explosion that rocked Tropical Dreams, David Murphy and Tiana Alexander started to rebuild their lives. Living on the beautiful and tranquil island of St. Lucia, they tried not to let the ugliness of Robert Dubose invade every aspect of their lives. They knew he was coming and wouldn't stop until someone was dead. 
Robert Dubose planned every second of his revenge against David and Tiana down to the littlest detail. This time he was leaving nothing to chance. Bringing a partner in on the plan almost guarantees his success. 
Can David and Tiana once again defeat Dubose or will he finally get his revenge? Will Dubose and his hidden partner finally succeed in killing them? Can David forgive himself for failing Tiana or will their love be another casualty?
Dirty Business ~ Julie Elizabeth Powell
Gavin Bloom and Alex Moore run an online magazine for an adult market; although each insists it has to be within the limits of not only the law but to their sense of decency. Gavin is on the edge of developing a revolutionary turn for that very magazine, a programme that will no doubt secure the business, maybe forever. 
Amidst the excitement and enjoyment of its success, however, is the mysterious and heinous murder of one of their own. 
Who can have done it? And why? 
And who is the woman fastened by a chain to a wall? 
Follow the twists and turns and perhaps you can solve the puzzle before they do. 
Warning: some strong language, violence and moderate scenes of a sexual nature.
My Daylight Monsters ~ Sarah Dalton
I always thought my demons came out in the day, rather than at night. I’ve never been scared of the dark. I’ve only ever been scared of real things: getting ill, having injections, physical pain… death. Those are my monsters, not ghosts or vampires or whatever else can hide under your bed at night. 
I was wrong. 
The dark makes everything worse. 
When 17-year-old Mary Hades is admitted by her parents to a psychiatric unit, her worst nightmares are confirmed. How can she get better in a place that fills her with dread? Her friendships with the other patients — her wacky roommate Lacey, her protector Mo, and the mysterious, green-eyed Johnny — begin to fill her with hope, until she realizes that people in the hospital are dying without explanation. Something sinister stalks the corridors, and it’s up to Mary to stop it. But the closer she gets to the answer, the more perilous her situation becomes, and Mary discovers the only way to get out alive is to confront the things that scare her most.
North by Northeast ~ Cherime MacFarlane Without her he is alone in the world. Letting his wife go alone to Seattle, Washington to display her paintings in an invitation only show is difficult. But he has commitments to fulfill. Unease turns to fear when she doesn't answer his call. The "sight" tells him something is horribly wrong. An inept investigator, an obsessed fan and three friends all come together in a tight tale of a race into British Columbia's Pacific Coast as a husband tries to save the only thing he ever wanted, his wife.
Captive (Book 1 of A New Life Series) ~ Samantha Jacobey A New Life Series is an epic adventure. TORI FARRELL's life IS one wild story... escaped from a biker gang and running from drug lords... used by the FBI and hoping to protect her present from her past... IT'S DARK - IT'S BRUTAL, and it's WORTH EVERY MINUTE OF IT!! (Mature read, 18+ for graphic sexual content and violence, including rape)
