Book Description

Publication Date: April 20, 2006

Four exceptional authors, four enticing stories. Wrap yourself up in the heat of the best in erotic romance from Changeling Press. Angela Knight -- Blood Service Ann Jacobs -- Branded Dakota Cassidy -- Slave School Dropout Kate Hill -- Tainted Kisses The hunter and the hunted. Best selling author Angela Knight brings you vampire bounty hunters that sizzle. Adiva Mayhew is a spy -- and a damn good one. But now she's running for her life from a deadly bounty hunter -- who's also a vampire. General Borian Tang has offered a high reward for her capture, and the man known only as Vigilante apparently means to collect. When Vigilante catches up to her, she soon finds all he wants to do is take her -- over and over again. And as she yields to his seductive domination, Adiva finds she wouldn't have it any other way. Trouble is, Tang is still determined to capture her, and there are other bounty hunters eager to claim the reward. A distant planet -- a man on a path of discovery and a tortured woman. Author Ann Jacobs explores sexual healing. Cole Callender, an entrepreneur with an eye to the future, branded a sexual deviant under Earth laws, adopts Obsidion as his future. Cole will build more than just a safe haven for Doms and subs practicing BDSM -- Cole thinks in terms of community, and the future of Obsidion as a world. Amber -- a sub with a death wish. She's barely escaped a cruel Dom with her life. The scars she's left with, both inside and out, may be permanent. Now she wants nothing more than to be Cole's loving slave. Cole sees beyond her scars, but is his love enough to help Amber learn to live again? Two shapeshifting cats plus one kinky cupboard equals author Dakota Cassidy's humorous slant on BDSM. Nyla is a cat. So is Lucas. Nyla is an Egyptian Mau, descendant of the Goddess Bast. Lucas. isn't. In fact, he's a tomcat. Unlikely lifemates at best. Lucas is also a sexual Dominant who enjoys just a smidge of rocky road with his bedroom pleasures. But Nyla's never considered herself submissive. No one is the boss of her. Oh, and it never hurts to mention that Nyla's family is a snobbish, upper crust bunch of shifters who will probably want nothing more than to see to it that Lucas and Nyla's newly acquired lifemate status is revoked by the lifemate council! A primeval vampire, a woman intent in saving her village at all costs and a bargain. Author Kate Hill journeys into the ultimate surrender. Dancing with the devil. Pure Evil. Stolen from his mother's womb by the very creature responsible for her death, Etlu was raised to destroy without mercy and sate his lust like an animal. Yet, peering through villagers' windows in the dark of night, he sees men and women sharing unfamiliar pleasures and longs to understand. Meets pure good. Niabi uses her powers in defense of the weak. When Etlu's army of Viking warriors devastates a village she's sworn to protect, Niabi's only choice is to strike a bargain with Etlu -- the humans' lives in exchange for her complete surrender to his desires. Can she find anything in him worth saving?

ALL WRAPPED UP contains exciting tales by four of today's popular erotic romance authors - all compiled within one book from Changeling Press.

BLOOD SERVICE by Angela Knight
Adiva is in big trouble. Her part in the effort to overthrow General Tang's government has garnered Tang's attention and he's placed a sizable bounty on her head. It's a bounty that has attracted the attention of Vigilante, a Vampire bounty hunter with an agenda of his own. Adiva's only hope of escaping the brutal bounty hunter is to get offworld before he finds her. Only she doesn't make it and Vigilante offers her the choice - become his willing bloodthrall or he turns her over to Tang where she'll be tortured and eventually killed.

Angela Knight will literally suck readers in with this storyline. It's action packed with sizzling hot sex scenes. Adiva's panic over being caught will get your heart pounding and Vigilante's ruthless yet caring nature will satisfy the readers need for the "bad boy" we crave.


BRANDED by Ann Jacobs
Saving submissive, Amber, from the brutality of a sadistic Dom called Dax results in Cole being exiled from Earth. This banishment that should be a punishment turns out to be a blessing. BDSM - the lifestyle Cole enjoys is outlawed on Earth. On Obsidion, Cole creates an environment where lovers and dabblers of BDSM can experience the beauty of this alternate lifestyle without being considered a sexual deviant. The only thing missing for Cole is Amber. Until his sister and Amber get caught in a raid and they're also exiled from Earth, unfortunately so is Dax. By the time Amber comes to Cole as his slave, she is unable to experience pleasure without pain. Will Cole be able to show her that pleasure can be obtained without pain?

Ann Jacobs depicts both the ugliness and beauty that can be found in the BDSM lifestyle in this futuristic storyline. Readers will fall in love with Cole. His love and devotion to Amber is inspiring. He may be the Master in the relationship, but there's no doubt that Amber holds his heartstrings.


SLAVE SCHOOL DROPOUT by Dakota Cassidy
Nyla is an Egyptian Mau, a descendant of the Goddess Bast. Her pedigree is impeccable and nothing but the best will do. Lucas has been her movie buddy for the past year, and while he's great to pal around with, he's a Tom cat, which makes any thought of a sexual relationship with him intolerable. The Goddess doesn't care about pedigrees or lineage, and neither does Nyla's nose. All of a sudden she can smell Lucas and he smells way better than catnip. He's definitely her lifemate and just one night together proves it, but good lord, what are the torture devices she spots in his closet while looking for a hand towel? Well, it simply won't do. There is no way she is going to allow Lucas to put a kitty collar on her.

Dakota Cassidy always writes such humorous tales and this is no exception. You'll laugh your way through this story as you imagine this uppity cat trying to deny that her lifemate is a Tom cat. I get this image of a Persian with a mangy barn cat and can't help but laugh at the pair of them.


TAINTED KISSES by Kate Hill
Ripped from his mother's womb and raised by the creature responsible for her death, Etlu has never known kindness, love, or mercy. His entire life has consisted of pain, anguish and death. Like the creature that changed him to a blood drinker and trained him, Etlu's life is full of destruction. He is curious about the happiness he sees amongst the humans, but he's never been touched or been shown kindness. Niabi is also a blood drinker but unlike Etlu, she was raised with affection and kindness. Niabi was sworn to protect the village that Etlu's warriors destroyed. Niabi's status as a female is revealed before the destruction is complete. Etlu strikes a bargain with Niabi - her complete surrender to his desires, in exchange for the lives of her people. Will Niabi be able to show Etlu that love is a strength, not a weakness?

This is the darkest story in this anthology but I was fascinated by the idea that someone who has grown up knowing nothing but hate and destruction can learn to trust and care for others. Kate Hill allows us to experience the metamorphosis of Etlu from a cold-hearted killer to a caring man who learns to love.


Readers will be delighted with the stories that can be found between the cover of ALL WRAPPED UP. With vampires, futuristic settings, a snobby cat and her Tom cat, as well as an evil force to be reckoned with - you get to experience a variety of emotions that will titillate your senses and leave you in awe of the talents that these authors possess.

Angela Knights, Blood Service is the story of Adiva Mayhew, a spy who's on the run from a bounty hunter. She's caught by 'Vigilante' who knows what he wants from her and doesn't want to let her go. No one writes sexy dominant heroes like Angela!

Ann Jacobs story, Branded, is a very touching BDSM story. About love and healing, it's highly recommended!

Dakota Cassidy's, Slave School Dropout is a hoot! It's the story of shape shifting cats and secret kinky desires - with a very humorous twist.

Kate Hills, Tainted Kisses is a wonderful vamp story about a woman who gives herself to save her village and finds love in return. It's a wonderful story.

Four excellent stories, all highly recommended!
