Price Reduction... Ella Jade's Hottest Books

In an attempt to stay competitive in this market my wonderful publisher has decided to mark some of the eBooks on my backlist down. 

How cool is that?

If you haven't read me yet this is a perfect opportunity to snuggle up this weekend and meet some of my scorching hot, dominant, sexy heroes. If these have been on your TBR list now is the time to read them.

Here are the blurbs to the books you can find at a discounted price.


Can the sub teach the Dom to play? 

Natural submissive Gracie Miller thought she had found her other half in Cade Jameson. Not only did he help her through a difficult time in her life, in the bedroom he brought her more pleasure than she could have ever imagined. They seemed perfect for each other. 

Cade knew what he wanted in the bedroom. Gracie brought out his domineering side and ignited his passion. But he feared he was too dominant for this beautiful, naïve girl, who was so young and impressionable, so he ended their relationship. 

Two and a half years later, Gracie returns to town a new woman. She had moved to the city and found a "Master" who showed her what she was truly capable of. Now she's back and wants to show Cade exactly what kind of submissive she could be for him. 

But after hearing all that she's experienced, Cade now wonders if he's dominant enough to satisfy her. Can he be the man Gracie needs him to be?

What happens when a Dominant falls for his not-so-submissive attorney? 
Martin Abrams, owner of Master M's BDSM club, has become unfulfilled with his lifestyle. Ever since his sub, Gracie, left to marry her true love, Martin has lost his way. Living the life of the head Dominant in his circle isn't as appealing as it once was. Something seems to be missing. 

Sassy lawyer Arianna Covington relocates to New York City after a humiliating divorce. She's looking for a fresh start when she agrees to become Martin's exclusive attorney. She's intrigued by his domineering personality and wants to know why women kneel at his feet. 

Their attraction is undeniable despite Ari's initial beliefs that she will never submit to Martin's desires. But Martin is up for the challenge. Arianna is more than he ever imagined in a woman. He vows to claim her heart, with or without the games. Who will surrender first?

Lucas and Katherine enter into the perfect arrangement to fulfill their sexual needs, but what happens when their hearts get in the way?

Successful businessman and hardcore Dominant Lucas Cain knows his way around a playroom and doesn’t normally take on brand new subs. He’s apprehensive about training someone so innocent, but the more time he spends with Katherine the more intrigued he becomes. She may be everything he’s been searching for. 

But when Lucas requests that Colin, his friend and mentor, join them in the playroom for an evening of fun, it just might change everything.

An affair and a shocking secret threaten to tear apart a rich and powerful family. 
Claudia Samson, housekeeper to the privileged Callahan family, finds herself alone and pregnant after a brief fling with Gavin, the youngest Callahan son. When she informed him of the pregnancy he accused her of running a scam and made it clear that she was on her own. 

Brody Callahan, Gavin's older half-brother, has devoted his entire life to running the family business. He doesn't realize what he's been missing by throwing himself into his work until he finds Claudia asleep in the family guest bedroom. He has discovered his very own Sleeping Beauty. Intrigued by the young woman, he vows to get to know her better. 

Although Claudia is instantly attracted to the charismatic businessman, she knows her secret will destroy any chance they have for a future together, but Brody's awfully hard to resist. 

Meanwhile, as Gavin watches Brody and Claudia's relationship develop, he begins to devise a plan to use the secret to his advantage. He wants full partnership in the business—something he was denied by both his brother and their deceased father—and maybe now he can finally obtain it. 

Can Brody and Claudia survive the storm, or will the secrets and blackmail destroy both them and their love?

Gabby is resentful and won't be Lorenzo's charity case. But sparks fly and the couple soon gives into their desire, realizing they were meant to be together. 

What happens when Carlo's enemies threaten their future? Will someone get caught in the crossfire?

BDSM Unleashed...

The Playroom

Welcome to my blog! Thanks for stopping by. If you're here for the BDSM Unleashed Giveaway Hop you probably enjoy reading/writing in this genre.

I don't practice the lifestyle, but I admit it intrigues me. When I read my very first BDSM romance I was hooked. So much so, that I started researching the lifestyle like crazy. I couldn't get the images of those strong, sexy domineering characters I could create out of my head. I like my romance heros to be dominant, take-charge and in control. For me, blending elements of BDSM into my story was a win, win. I could create an alpha in the bedroom, but find the way to his heart.

I have several titles in the BDSM genre (Be My Everything, The Lonely Dominant and Make Me Stay). With each one I write I'm learning to balance the BDSM lifestyle into a relationship that is  both captivating and totally hawt! The possibilities are endless.

My newest romance Make Me Stay is available now...



Can the sub teach the Dom to play?

Natural submissive Gracie Miller thought she had found her other half in Cade Jameson. Not only did he help her through a difficult time in her life, in the bedroom he brought her more pleasure than she could have ever imagined. They seemed perfect for each other.

Cade knew what he wanted in the bedroom. Gracie brought out his domineering side and ignited his passion. But he feared he was too dominant for this beautiful, naïve girl, who was so young and impressionable, so he ended their relationship.

Six Sentence Sunday... Be My Everything by Ella Jade

Happy Sunday. I'm back with another six from Be My Everything.


ADULT CONTENT


"I’ve been touching myself as you’ve been undressing," Luke admitted. "And it gave me an idea, one that I’d like to explore later."
The low, husky tone of his voice was driving Katherine crazy. It made her want to stroke him harder and faster, but she didn’t want to screw up again, so she waited for him to tell her what to do next.
"You’ll touch yourself for me, and show me what you like," he promised. "I’m going to watch as you make yourself come."

Six Sentence Sunday... Be My Everything

I thought this week I'd give you a taste of Be My Everything. Meet Lucas and Katherine...


"I’ve been thinking about this ever since I left that play party. I was intrigued by what I saw there, and I want to be dominated."
"I think you need to research this further. You didn’t ask me any of the right questions. You have no idea what I could ask of you. Do you even know what the words
safe, sane and consensual mean?"

Be My Everything - Amazon Best Seller


IKR? It's crazy! I never expected to be an Amazon Best Selling author, but I'm thrilled! Be My Everything has been holding strong on the Top 100 list for Erotica for three weeks. I haven't said too much about it because the rankings change so fast, but I have been sneaking a peek at the numbers every so often (every hour on the hour). I'm trying not to be too obsessed with it. lol

Anyway, I'd like to say thanks to those of you who have read it and helped put it on the list. I'm flattered. I also wanted to remind you my next BDSM Romance The Lonely Dominant is set to release this coming Monday with Noble Romance.


Blurb...

Successful businessman Alec Carter realizes his life is less than fulfilled when he meets beautiful Princeton University senior Clara Whittaker at a local coffee shop. Alec experiments in the BDSM lifestyle but doesn't consider himself hardcore until he crosses paths with the obviously submissive Clara. The more time Alec spends with young Clara, the more his dominant tendencies push to the surface. She could be what has been missing.
After her grandmother's death, Clara ends up a guest in Alec's home until she can finish school. She quickly learns she's a natural submissive and decides she wants to explore this new side of herself with the man of house. Alec shows her a life she never knew existed as they enter into a world of role playing, fantasy, and desire. Alec may be the Master, but Clara holds the key to his heart. 
As the semester comes to an end, so does their arrangement. If Alec doesn't admit his true feelings for Clara, she could walk out of his life forever. But, Alec isn’t sure which she craves more . . . his dominance . . . or his love.
.
Check back here on Monday because I'm doing a giveaway of the novel to celebrate its release!

Have a great Friday!

Be My Everything...New Adult Excerpt






I'm in a naughty mood tonight so I thought I'd give you a steamy excerpt. I've never posted this one before.

(Sexual content/language - Rated R)

Blurb...

Lucas and Katherine enter into the perfect arrangement to fulfill their sexual needs, but what happens when their hearts get in the way?

Shy, awkward receptionist Katherine Sierra wants to explore her sexually submissive side. Although new to the BDSM world, she’s eager to learn. When she attends a play party and submits an application to one of the most experienced Doms in the room, she has no idea what she’s gotten herself into.

Successful businessman and hardcore Dominant Lucas Cain knows his way around a playroom and doesn’t normally take on brand new subs. He’s apprehensive about training someone so innocent, but the more time he spends with Katherine the more intrigued he becomes. She may be everything he’s been searching for.

But when Lucas requests that Colin, his friend and mentor, join them in the playroom for an evening of fun, it just might change everything.

Has Lucas broken his own rule and fallen in love with his sub?

Excerpt...

"Come to me," he said in a low voice.

She did as he said and then handed him his drink. His shoes, socks, and shirt were off and he stood by the bed in his dress pants. Every time she saw him, she wanted more. His body was so well defined she had to fight the urge to reach out and run her hands down his chest. He still hadn’t given her free reign to touch him when they were together, and she was starting to think he never would.


"Thank you." He took his scotch and slowly sipped it, never taking his eyes away from hers. He swirled the amber colored liquid around in the glass before bringing it back up to his lips and taking another sip.

"You’re welcome, Master."

She was so focused on his mouth and the way his lips pressed against the glass that she couldn’t help but wonder what it’d be like to kiss him. He hadn’t allowed that yet either.

He placed the glass on the dresser next to him and pulled her toward him.

Her heart was pounding out of her chest, but that always happened when he got that certain look in his eyes. The look that told her he was in his Dom mode and there was no turning back. It excited her and threw her whole body into overdrive, but at the same time it caused a certain amount of fear to course through her system.

He brushed his lips against her jaw and then trailed them up to her ear. "You pleased me tonight," he whispered and the feel of his breath against her skin caused her to tremble. He quickly spun her around and wrapped his hands around her waist, pulling her back against his chest.

He walked them over to the huge floor-length windows that overlooked the backyard. The moon was full and shining into the bedroom, causing their reflections to bounce off the glass. Katherine could see his face in the glass and watched as he lowered his mouth to her bare shoulder.

He gently kissed it as he worked his fingers up to the zipper of her dress.

"I’ve wanted to take this dress off you all night," he said as he slowly lowered the zipper. He slipped the thin straps from her shoulders and let them fall just below her naked breasts. He moved his hands in front of her to cup them, gently rubbing his thumbs over her nipples. She stood mesmerized, as she watched his every move through the window.

"Good girl," he whispered against her ear, and she knew he was referring to the fact that she wasn’t wearing a bra.

When the dress was delivered, it had come with shoes and a note that said she was only to wear what was provided and nothing else.

He moved his hands down her stomach and to her hips, kissing her neck and gently grinding his very hard erection into her backside. He pushed on the fabric of the dress that rested on her hips and let it fall to her feet, revealing her naked body to him.

"You follow directions very well, my sweet girl, and for that, you’ll be rewarded." He splayed one hand across her stomach, pulling her closer. With the other hand, he palmed her aching center. She could feel the wetness seep from inside her and drip down her thighs. He trailed the hand that was on her stomach up to her nipple and started rolling and pinching it as he let his fingers slip inside her, and all the while he was still grinding against her.

"I’ve thought about this body all week," he mumbled against her ear. "The way your pussy tastes when you come on my tongue, how hot your tight little cunt is around my cock and the way your mouth feels when I explode down your throat."

"Ahh…" she moaned, and the faster he moved his fingers in and out of her, the more she wanted to come, but she hadn’t been given permission for that, so as much as she wanted to let go and give into his actions, she had to focus and hold off or she’d suffer the consequences.

"Do you want to come?" He smiled against her neck. "I can feel how tight your muscles are."

"Please, Master," she begged.

He slowly pulled his fingers out of her, and she whimpered at the loss. He chuckled, but she didn’t find it funny at all.

"I’d much rather you come on my cock." He unzipped his pants and let them fall to his ankles along with his boxers. She watched as he kicked them, and her dress, out of the way, and then he pushed her up against the cool window. The chilly glass was a welcomed contrast to her steamy skin. She could feel the sweat  gathering at the nape of her neck and slide down her back. It wasn’t even hot in there, but her body was on fire.

Excerpt...

Chapter 1

Safe, sane and consensual…

Katherine Sierra was quiet, timid, and sexually unsatisfied. For as long as she could remember, she’d found strong, take charge men irresistible. Even as a young teenager, she’d been attracted to older, authoritative men. She’d had more than a few fantasies about several of her male high school teachers. If she had to guess, it was those fantasies that landed her in the lobby of the office building of one of the most powerful men in New York City. She fidgeted in her seat as she listened to the receptionist intercept calls for Mr. Cain. She wondered how much longer she'd have to wait until it was her turn to see him. As she waited, she thought back to the only other time she'd seen him.

On that particular night, she found herself at a local play party as a guest of a friend who dabbled in the BDSM lifestyle. Her friend recognized her submissive tendencies and understood she hadn’t been sexually satisfied in her past experiences.

She was extremely nervous even though she wasn’t expected to participate. She casually scanned the room, taking in the people who were in attendance. They all looked so normal. She wasn’t sure what she’d expected but she’d certainly had a different vision than this. Leather and chains usually sprung to mind when she thought about domination and submission. Apparently, this wasn’t that kind of party. This was more of an informal meeting for Doms to meet potential subs.

She settled herself in the corner of the room, trying to stay out of the way as she continued to examine the different types of people. Suddenly, her gaze landed on the most gorgeous man she’d ever seen. The moment she set eyes on him, she knew she had to get to know him. She had been brought as a guest and was only there to observe, but the entire scene intrigued her. It was as if she were there to meet him. He was leaning by a huge picture window, watching the light snow fall outside. Their eyes met when he turned to face the crowded room. She couldn’t help but stare at his tall, lean muscular frame. His overgrown blond hair hung just above his emerald green eyes, but he didn’t look unkempt. She could appreciate he’d taken extra time to get that luscious mane just right.

At first she thought he almost looked out of place standing there. She briefly wondered if he too was an observer like her or possibly a submissive waiting for his Domme to arrive. She soon realized that thought couldn’t have been further from the truth. And as the night wore on, she noticed women were falling all over him, but with one swift move of his hand they were dismissed. He had a quiet command of the room and damn if she didn’t find that completely sexy. She wanted the opportunity to have him dismiss her. He had her salivating and soaking through her panties, and they hadn’t even spoken to one another. Not yet, anyway.

Katherine spent the majority of the evening focused on him, but she didn’t have the nerve to approach. Actually, she noticed anyone who did come near him had a designated timeslot. They were being brought over by another woman who would briefly introduce them to him. It was almost as if he were interviewing them. Occasionally, he would glance in her direction, but each time, she’d quickly avert her gaze to the floor. She’d have to find a way to speak to him, because she was certain he’d haunt her dreams forever if she passed up this opportunity.

After the fascinating stranger left the party, Katherine lingered behind and tried to learn anything she could about him. She heard a few women talking about how he was there looking for a new sub. She also learned through the idle chitchat, that being Lucas Cain’s sub was a coveted position not easily obtained.

She battled internally over taking the next step—submitting an application. She’d only attended the party out of curiosity. She’d never intended to participate in this lifestyle, but something inside her kept screaming to try it. The determined look in his eyes when he spoke to those women throughout the evening seemed to be a defining moment for her. She didn’t think she had a chance at testing with him, because she’d also heard he only dealt with experienced submissives who would know how to please him. In fact, when she handed her application to the woman in charge of forwarding requests to potential Doms, she’d rolled her eyes. Obviously, she didn’t think Katherine had much of a chance either.

To say she was surprised when he called her a week later was an understatement. He was brief with his instructions and asked her to meet him at his office. He'd e-mailed her the potential contract before she'd arrived. It all seemed so formal. She wasn’t expecting so much time and effort to be put into the details of this arrangement.

"Mr. Cain will see you now," the receptionist said.

"Oh, okay." Katherine got up from the couch, straightened her dress and followed her into the office. Mr. Cain was sitting behind a large cherry desk, typing away. He didn't even look up from the computer screen when he thanked the receptionist and told Katherine to have a seat. He continued to type so she took the opportunity to look around. Her hands were trembling and she felt cold but that happened when she was anxious. She noticed the name plate on his desk read "Luke" instead of "Lucas". She stared at him as he worked and decided she liked "Luke" better. It wasn't as proper.

"See something you like?" he asked.

"What? No, I mean yes." She shifted in her seat. "I was just waiting for you to speak. I didn't want to interrupt."

"You talk too much," he said.

"Sorry."

"Did you go over the contract and the checklist?"

"Yes, it's all very straightforward."

"And we're in agreement that this is consensual?" He stood and walked around the desk, stopping directly in front of her.

"Of course," she said.

"You'll submit to the background check, blood work and physical?" All of those were required if she was going to be his sub. It said so in the contract.

"I've been tested and I've brought the results. I'm also on the pill."

"I see," he said. "You don’t have an issue with the gym I've recommended?" The agreement also stated she was to join the gym of his choice where he'd take care of the membership.

"No, I like to work out."

He glanced down at her body, lingering at her legs for a few seconds before making eye contact with her. "You understand that the checklist is for your benefit. It outlines both hard and soft limits. You need to think it through and decide which acts you'll try and those you won't consider. You should also keep in mind that limits can change over time."

Katherine had no idea this whole set-up would be so involved. She thought she would just go to his house and have sex the way he wanted her to. She was under the notion that was what it meant to submit. She realized she had so much to learn.

“Any questions, Ms. Sierra?” Mr. Cain asked in that sexy southern drawl of his.

Katherine learned he was originally from Texas but had relocated to New York when his company took off. He was impeccable. Not a hair out of place or a crease in his suit that wasn’t supposed to be. He stood over Katherine for most of their conversation, and she found it unsettling. He was an extremely intimidating man.

“What happens next? I mean, do we have sex?” She was so out of her element.

“Would you like to have sex right here in my office?” His mouth formed a hard line, causing his jaw to tighten. “Shall I take you on my desk with an office full of people on the other side of my door?”

His words made her realize how innocent she was when it came to his lifestyle.

“Umm, no, of course not,” she answered as she cracked her knuckles. Her face was flush, and her throat was dry. She wondered what she was doing there.

“But as your Dom, I’d be well within my rights to take you fast and hard on my desk,” he informed her. He never raised his voice. It was soft but firm, and he got his point across very effectively. “Is that what you came here for?”

That was precisely what she wanted. Her stomach flipped as the moisture gathered inside her panties, just like it had the first night she’d seen him. This man oozed sex and he knew it.

“Katherine.” He sighed. “What are you doing here?” He looked frustrated, but she didn’t understand why.

“Applying to be your sub,” she said. “And please, call me Kat.”

“As much as I’d like you to be my pet, sweetie, I’ll stick with Katherine.” He smirked and that relaxed her. “Why do you want to be my sub?”

“I want to be dominated.” She hoped that was what he wanted to hear.

“Well, why not have your boyfriend tie you to the bed?” he asked. “It would be much easier than going through all of this.”

I hope you enjoyed that little teaser.

So I was thinking that after I hit the send button last night on the final I'd relax a bit. Not so much...I no sooner unloaded Be My Everything edits when the first round of The Lonely Dominant edits appeared in my in-box!

I wouldn't trade it for anything...

Have a great weekend!
