Almost a year ago, my pirate collection, ROGUES, vanished from my catalogue. I wanted to rework it a bit, improve things, and give it a more visible home, so to speak. One of my best publishers, New Dawning International Book Fair, agreed to re-release it once it was ready. Thanks to my exceptional editor, Penny Barber, it's been whipped into shape and has just be released again with a whole new look. If you like Pirates, and romance, and a touch of paranormal and erotic, this collection should appeal to you just fine! Watch for an exciting new contest with some gorgeous pirate jewelry up for grabs next week! In the meantime, have a look:
PIRATES
Formerly called ROGUES, revised and
reedited
New Dawning International Book Fair
Genre: Adventure Fantasy/Romance (mildly
erotic)
Cover by: Kayden McLeod
Three stories, one kind of hero, pirates anyone?
Includes the short stories Angel-Fire, Storm-Singer, and The Phantom’s Lair…
Historical adventure, and the darker mystery of an ageless vampire who keeps a
witch at his side, his protector and his lover through
eternity...
Angel-Fire: A short intro to the world
of Captain Jack Stanton, an honourable man with a tarnished reputation. Stranded
in Nassau, caught up in a pleasant interlude with a barmaid, Jack has a vision
that will lead him to his past and his future, if he can survive to get back
Tortuga to discover what it all means…
Storm-Singer: The Isle of Nyx has
become the dread of all sailors who must dare the waters surrounding the
mythical island. Local legends say a vampire prince resides in the ancient
castle that can be seen from the harbor of the island. At his side is a powerful
sorceress whose song can control and summon storms.
In a desperate attempt to end the eternal threat looming
over them, the people of the Aurora Islands sacrifice their greatest treasure,
the princess Sarita, entrusting her with the task of seducing and destroying the
dark prince who has been plundering their wealth and their people for
centuries?
The Phantom’s Lair: Upon her arrival in
the pirate port of Tortuga where her father is acting as Governor, Katheryn
Hollinsworth is determined to choose her own path, and follow her heart wherever
it may take her. On the streets of Puerta de la Plata, she encounters the
mythical buccaneer known as The Phantom, and very quickly loses her heart to the
handsome rogue.
Jack Stanton is a man who has never fully come to terms
with his past, and in the Governor's pretty daughter he finds a most unlikely
champion. But when his past threatens her life, and any chance of a respectable
future, The Phantom must face the demons of his past, and accept the dictates of
his own reawakened heart...
Previous Reviews for Storm-Singer and The Phantom’s
Lair:
The Phantom’s Lair:
4 Stars - A fast-paced story in what I
hope is the first of a series. This is the perfect book for all the pirate
lovers out there. Jack Stanton is a handsome rogue that can’t but help the
innocents and downtrodden. He is honorable, quick witted, and to die for in bed.
Katheryn is a strong-willed young lady that will not let convention rule her.
The sparks fly between these two from the first meeting and each encounter gets
a little hotter. It is probably a good thing that there wasn’t a volcano on the
island or it might have blown up. As I said in the beginning, I am hoping that
this is part of a series since the book ends in a way that leaves lots of
questions unanswered.
—Oleta M Blaylock, Just Erotic Romance Reviews
4 Cups - A wonderful tale with the sea
as a backdrop. Full of action and seduction, this short story will have you
riveted until the very end. A wonderful story.
—Laura, Coffee Time Romance
4 Angels - Denyse M. Bridger has written
a short story about facing the past in order to have a future. Katheryn's desire
to live her life as she chooses adds a nice twist to this story. Jack is an
honorable man whose life has become something other than he planned. Jack will
find himself making some hard decisions in regards to Katheryn's safety and
their hearts. The chemistry between Jack and Katheryn is instant, but the
passion that follows is both breathtaking and touching...A touching pirate story
for anyone that likes one about the slightly bad guy getting the good
girl.
—Jessica, Fallen Angels Reviews
4 Roses - Jack is a yummy hero and
Katheryn is my type of heroine-feisty and not afraid to go after what she wants!
Denyse M. Bridger has written a very enjoyable read!
—Pam L., A Romance Review
Storm-Singer:
4 Cups - A tight story full of the
undeniable lust of vampires. Their violent couplings add a sense of passion
harnessed by sheer will. The hero is dark, but needy, in his pursuit of life's
essence, while the heroine aids her lover by seeking that which could destroy
him. They are both master and slave to each other in their love. The storyline
captured my attention and would not let up until I had finished.
—Katherine L. Hunt, Coffee Time Romance
4 Angels - A very quick journey into the
Isle of Nyx with a vampire to lust after. Jaden is a very hot, sexy man who
easily takes his victims while pillaging for more wealth. Sarita is a brave
young woman who knows her people's fate rests in her hands. Arrah is protective
of Jaden but allows him to play with his victims, although she would never
permit harm to come to him. All three characters are brought to life in this
short tale...Denyse M. Bridger definitely packs a punch with this short, erotic
story and this reviewer would love to read a longer tale about Jaden and his
illustrious Arrah.
—JoAnn, Fallen Angel Reviews
Just in time for Pirate’s Week on Grand Cayman! How you manage to write all of these novels continues to amaze me!
