Just in Time for Halloween: My Dark and Sexy Story “Swinging with the Supernatural” is Featured in New Paranormal Erotica Anthology “Indulgence: The Tales of the Cirque Romani” Released Today

What happens when a swinger, a lady sword swallower & a lady midget sword swallower meet?

This intriguing scenario is explored in my story  “Swinging with the Supernatural” as part of the new provocative paranormal erotica print anthology Indulgence: Tales of the Cirque Romani being released today just in time for Halloween.

Indulgence: Tales of the Cirque Romani will be available in a digital version on Amazon Kindle, B&N and other retail outlets for $4.99. The print version will be available on Amazon as a print on demand book later this week for $9.99. The new anthology features 10 Lazy Day Publishing authors weaving sexy tales about a fictional carnival troupe called the Cirque Romani. This is the first print offering by the digital publisher Lazy Day Publishing.

This story was a departure for me as I’ve never previously written in the genre of paranormal erotica.  I really enjoyed it as it reminded me of the Science Fiction and Fantasy stories I used to write when I was younger. I believe the readers will enjoy the final result as well as the other excellent and intriguing stories in this collection.

My tale in Indulgence: Tales of the Cirque Romani is about swinger Willy Roamer’s unusual and sexy trip to the carnival to watch a performance of the traveling carnival troupe the Cirque Romani. During his adventure, Willy meets a lady sword swallower and a lady midget sword swallower and discovers some supernatural secrets possessed by the troupe.

It’s a very sexy and different kind of story written in the same frank and unflinching manner as my readers of my novels Monogamy Sucks and Dear Hef have come to enjoy. I wanted to combine my brand of real life erotic fiction with a supernatural story, including vampires and shape shifters. I added some new interesting wrinkles to these familiar mythic creatures, too.  I am very grateful for Lazy Day Publishing giving me an opportunity to stretch myself as a writer.

Indulgence: The Tales of the Cirque Romani  also features the work of authors Alta Hensley (Master of Ceremonies), J.M. Kelley (Laws of Attraction), Amy le Blanc (Til the Day Makes Us), Ty Langston (Coming Home), A ‘Jeeper’Wade (Tiger Tamer), Liz Borino (Jesse), Rae Spencer (Cigany Flame), Ava Riley (The Beast Within) and Elizabeth Thorne (Bound by Silk).

I have read the entire anthology and I’m very taken with all of the stories. The authors all delivered sexy paranormal stories that will intrigue readers.

I highly recommend this collection and you should also pick up additional work from these fine authors.

Also check out the cool book trailer Lazy Day Publishing created for Indulgence: Tales of the Cirque Romani at the end of this post.  It’s awesome, too.
