Thanks everyone for taking some time and visiting us here at the party! Especially if you're in the States and watching the game...or commercials like in my case. ;)
Hope you've enjoyed the glimpse into the couple of fantasy posts I've shared today. And for a send off, here's a peek into Sunset Desires...
~ Blurb ~
A blind date. A hot tropical evening. She’ll be someone he can’t forget. He’ll fulfill her ultimate fantasy.
Gwendolyn Tramonto is stunned to learn her cousin set her up with sex on the beach and it’s not the drink. But after a several year dry spell of no relationships, no dates…no sex, Gwen decides to take her cousin up on her offer and go out on the blind date. For once, she’d like to indulge in a fantasy, be wined and dined instead of the other way around, and if she and the man ended up in bed together, that would be a nice bonus.
Evan Cadell is looking forward to the date his uncle arranged for him through an exclusive matchmaking service and taking a one night break from work, life and all its demands. From Gwen’s profile, Evan knows what her fantasy is and believes he’s the man who can make it come true.
But will one night in paradise be enough to satisfy their desires?
~ PG Excerpt ~ (not available anywhere else!)
Gwen. The match up. A distraction for a night. A short break from the drudgery of life. Uncle Lane wanted him to start a relationship. He only wanted a fling. That’s all he’d promised his uncle, who seemed gung ho to have him settle down. Weird idea coming from a man who hadn’t had a happy marriage. Evan’s habits of living alone and immersing himself in work were ingrained. He had thirty-five years of bachelorhood to his credit. If it weren’t for Lane, he’d still be at the office poring over figures. Not much else to do when you lived so far away from friends and family, and on an island.
But Uncle Lane, a recent returnee to the dating pool, had decided all the single males in the family needed to dive in with him. He put Evan at the head of the matchmaking line. Lucky me. Shrugging, he downed the rest of his beer. The least I can do is make the best of it and show her a good time. Glancing down at Gwen’s profile, he focused on the main words of her fantasy—vacation, exotic location, handsome man, sensual rendezvous.
Handsome? Check. At least he’d been told he had above-average features. Exotic location? Check. He had the perfect spot to take her. Erotic tryst? Though friends and family called him charming and women praised his skills, he hoped he could give her what she wanted and make her dreams come true.

Ah, Las Vegas, a wonderful city. It can be a great place for a writer. So many different opportunities for observation and glimpses into the personas of others.
I’ve seen the sun rise several times over Lake Mead, Lake Las Vegas and the strip at triathlon races and marathons. I've seen some great sunsets, too.
There's people watching down at the strip and downtown while traversing around, frequenting the restaurants, gambling
into the wee hours of the morning. Staying at the hotels provides some great ideas for settings and scenes in stories. <--- Like this great bathroom at Red Rock Hotel and Casino with a deep tub. Or this interesting room found in the Flamingo. ------v
[I've set my next Sunset book Sunset Seduction in a Las Vegas hotel room. ;) ]
There's some great stargazing as well deep into the night at Red Rock. I’ve even gone to school here.
Then, of course, there are my writing cronies and we can be in a whole category of interesting people ourselves.
Las Vegas is a place where dreams can be made one day and broken the next. A place where if you have the money and/or the right connections your every wish can be met, your fantasies fulfilled, and even if you don’t have the big bank roll or connections, you can still pretty much live out your desires. So many chances to become immersed in fantasies...and have fodder for stories.
The family introduced in Sunset Desires is from Las Vegas. The first story ends in the city while the other stories will take place there and around the city. :) And in Sunset Desires the hero helps the heroine fulfill a fantasy!

In my first post I mentioned how part of the inspiration for Sunset Desires came from laying out at the pool... Here's what that afternoon entailed...
One Monday afternoon in the summer, I went down to my development’s pool to enjoy the 80+ degree temps (a change from the 100+ degree temps we normally have here in Las Vegas), the water (enjoyed the water after I got over the initial shock of how brisk it was), the blue skies, palm trees, smell of sun tan lotion. There was a real nice older couple who came in. They were great to talk to and were having such a fun time that soon the three of us were laughing. After some laps, I took some time to work on outlining a hot scene for a story I was working on (which eventually became Sunset Desires) while jammin’ to Duran Duran and The Killers. And, as I was writing—longhand btw since I didn’t take my laptop—one of my fantasies started playing out.
Kind of.
Pool side, sunning, writing and along comes the pool boy.
This is where the ‘kind of’ part comes in.
For one, I’m not the hot cougar I imagine myself to be. Give me some time & I plan to get there.
Two, it wasn’t my private pool at my own house.
Three, the guy was covered in clothes and a hat and had sunglasses on so I couldn’t get a good look at him.
Oh well.
But I’m a writer, I can spin it. ;) Maybe one of these days I'll do a story around this day at the pool.
And another perk of the day…it didn’t take me a frickin’ hour to get the knots out of my long hair once I got home!
Since another part of the inspiration for Sunset Desires came from visiting Grand Cayman, here's a pick from the pub we went to & the basis for where my hero and heroine meet up.

Today I'm here at the Goddess Fish Party Pavilion to celebrate my first Decadent Publishing 1NS release ~ Sunset Desires, and I'm excited to be a part of the wonderful group of authors who write for this line. In regard to Sunset Desires, I was inspired to write this particular story by a combination of things -- a cruise I went on, laying out by the pool one summer and listening to some sensual flamenco music. My love of sunsets helped in picking out a title. :)
I'm doing a giveaway this weekend and for deets please visit my blog: C.R. Moss blog.
Stay tuned to the Pavilion today for more from me regarding Sunset Desires and other fun tibits!
