Hard Lovin’ by Nicole Austin
After a grueling graveyard shift in the E.R. and tromping through snow, the only things on Olivia Daughtry’s mind are a nice warm fire, a glass of chocolate wine and some quality time with her vibrator. Being interrogated by a tenacious cop wasn’t anywhere on her list of things to do. There is too much at stake for Officer Hall to follow department policies or go easy on the sexy suspect. But nurse Daughtry is one tough cookie and the harder he pushes the hotter she gets. From handcuffs and an improvised gag to little blue candies, Hall will do whatever it takes to get the correct answer to his very important question.
Going Down by Brenna Zinn
What does one hunky Navy Seal plus a blizzard equal on Valentine’s Day for Michelle Bishop? One hot night in an elevator with nowhere to go and no electricity to get there. Add a holiday gift basket from Valentino’s that’s full of candles, body paint, and chocolate wine, and going down on an elevator becomes a Valentine experience she’ll never forget.
Lust Becomes you by Desiree Holt
Kylie Monroe fell in love and in lust with Sam Cooper, reaching new highs of ecstasy as they explored the world of BDSM. She foresaw a rich life together filled with love and erotic sex. When Sam dumped her to pursue success in the legal field, telling her there was “always tomorrow,” she never quite recovered from the hurt. Ten years later, Kylie’s still gun-shy in the love department and frustrated in the sex department. Nobody could replace Sam. Then on a snowy Valentine’s Day she has an unexpected opportunity to reconnect with him. But can Sam persuade her their love is real this time? Can he woo her back with the kind of sex she’d been missing?
My Booty Call by Samantha Cayto
A snowy Valentine’s Day means pizza for one and another lonely night for the now-divorced Aaron. Or so he thinks. Then a knock on his door introduces him to the decadent delights of choc-wine and sexy new Senate staffer, Susan. She’s offering him one night, but if he’s a very good boy, it might turn into more.
Loving Bliss by Regina Carlysle
Even a rough, tough, badass former Marine knows that Valentine’s Day is the perfect time for a little seduction. So after a stop at Valentino’s Wine and Gourmet Food Shoppe and armed with a decadent bottle of chocolate wine, Noble Loving tracks down Bliss Harper, the star of his most wicked fantasies. His sexy business partner should be firmly off limits, but he’s sick of playing by the rules. Time for some new ones. It’ll take a slow hand and some hot loving to convince the lady she belongs to him, but this Marine is up for the challenge.
Be Mine by Cerise Deland
Why shouldn’t an eligible man like Jason Sherwood plan a Valentine’s Day merger with a woman whose elegant body melted at his touch last year on February fourteenth? A mysterious woman who disappeared like a wraith. A vibrant creature who came apart in his arms like only the right woman does for the right man. But Mara Richardson left Jason for a good reason…and after a year of looking for her, he still doesn’t know why. But he has to learn. Has to get her naked, wild for him again. Give her those little sugary candies that say, Be Mine, and show her that, despite only hours with her last year, he needs her to be his. Forever.
Lickety Split by Allie Standifer
Five years ago Juliet Morgan tossed away the only man she’d ever love and the only life she’d ever want to live. Honorably retired from the Air Force she hops the first plane in hoping there’s something left to repair. Trent Joplin’s never gotten over sexy Juliet, but it doesn’t mean he’s ready to open his heart to her again. Five years is a long time to for love to linger, but maybe it’s all about scratching an itch. Juliet’s ready and willing to do anything to win her way back in Trent’s life. While Trent takes her body to new heights of passion, Juliet’s determined to sneak her way back into his heart faster than you can say lickity split.

Stories sound good, chocolate wine – never heard of it but then I don’t drink. The drink looks good but I’d rather it was a chocolate milkshake.
Although I’m more of a beer kinda of girl but Valentino’s Delight looks delicious.
I bought the group in May and they were great short reads. I’ll take a White or Black Russian for a special treat.
Suzanne, your drink is coming right up. Seawitch, ordering your milkshake! And Susan, I’m a beer girl too but ya gotta try this just once.
These sound HOT, I may have to pick up a few for v-day….
These books sound really good!
Nice teezers to some good reads! Thanks!
Love this blog!
Thanks, everyone. I promise you, these stories will be the frosting on your Valentine’s Day cake. And Suzanne? You get two white Russians.
All the stories sound great. Quite a few new to me authors and a couple favs, like Desiree and Nicole. Thanks for the great giveaway. Would love to win.
The drink sounds good, but no burbon. I will take a White Russian also. Or an Amerto & coke.
Amaretto and Coke? Not at my party! LOL! White Russian it is. And thanks for the compliment.
Oh, and I will wait until tomorrow to have random.org choose the GC winner, so we can catch any commenters overnight in other time zones.
A Valentino’s Delight looks like a great drink to have while enjoying some fabulous sounding books.
I love this blog and I love these authors! Happy V Day!!!
I haven’t read these stories yet, but I now have them on my TBB & read list. I can’t wait to try Valentino’s Delight. I think I need to get my girlfriends together and have a Valentino event.
sounds wonderful
I enjoy a Brandy Alexander once every few years or so – your cocktail sounds like a good match for it! Might have to have it a little more often…
Congrats to Mary Preston, the winner of a $10 GC to the virtual book store of your choice. Please email me at desireeholt@desireeholt.com. And thanks everyone for coming to my party. Hope you all wrap yourselves in all seven of the Valentino’s Delights
