Loving Day Blog Tour
I write contemporary, fantasy and sci/fi romances featuring interracial characters. I also write romantic suspense and new adult under Ursula Sinclair. I believe among consenting adults, no one has the right to tell you or dictate who you should or shouldn't love or indulge with for mutual satisfaction. lol What I try to showcase in my work is the loving relationships that can exist between a man and a woman really have nothing to do with race, but who that person is inside. Love should be about who you are as a person and not what society perceives you to be. My stories don't make race an issue, because it should not be one in the affairs of the heart. Is that everyones reality? Probably not, but it is mine and the way I like to write my romances. I usually have too many other issues going on. lol
For me the color of love is not just one color but the colors that you see when the sun hits water just right and those colors arch up to touch the sky. Two things necessary for that effect is sun and water. Just as in a relationship all that's required is those individuals trying to establish one. All others merely need to butt out.
In tribute to the Lovings and their legacy, my work honors you.
Over a thousand years ago Draakar was forced to leave Earth, now he has no choice but to return. The dragon lord, whose world teeters on the brink of destruction, must find his truemate. The one woman with the power and love fated to save them all. The woman he left behind.
Maya Trent was abandoned on Earth, apparently human but so much more and unaware of her duel heritage. Once Draakar awakens her dragon within all she wants to do is kill him. Yet they must work together to save mankind as well as the brethren. But first Draakar has to convince her that the truemate bond between them is real, as is his love for her. She just has to believe in him.

DECADENT PUBLISHING'S A BUCK A BOOK WIN A NOOK BLOG TOUR
This last week the temperature has hit 90. It's been hot and muggy and I've been spending most of my time indoors where the air is nice and cool. But if you're looking for something to heat you up even more let me introduce you to the men of the Guardian Agency and their women.
Three men.
Three women.
Six lives at stake.
The men of the Guardian Agency put their lives on the line for those they are paid to protect - imagine the lengths they'd go to shield those they love.
Shanna flees the altar. What better way to escape than go on her honeymoon without the scandalous groom? When mysterious phone calls threaten, Ross makes sure the safety of Shanna's body becomes his business - and he's all over it.
Rock star River Blu dominates the music charts, but a secret from her past haunts her. With danger lurking, she turns to Noah. He hopes to revisit their history, but he'll need to keep her alive to do it.
Eboni Stiles witnessed a murder. Now those responsible want her dead, but they'll have to get through Simon Blackcat first; and Blackcat doesn't die easily. The danger to her heart, however, is real and present.

Decisions Decisions
My youngest daughter is in an interesting dilemma. She got into every school she applied to, College of Charleston (don't know why she applied here), Boston University, Tulane, Fordham, University of Virginia, and Georgetown. She's narrowed them down now to UVA and GT. Of course her dad and I are insisting on UVA. It's only about 2 hours from home and you can not beat in-state tuition. UVA is also an excellent school ranked NO. 1 or 2 of best public universities in the country and ranked NO. 24 over all. Yes GT is ranked higher but the quality of the education she'll receive at UVA is just as good. Plus she wants to go to law school so she can always go to GT then. Still at times I think what the hell do you mean my baby is old enough to start college in the fall! What frigging nightmare is this!We didn't have the same issue with my oldest. She knew exactly where she wanted to go. She applied early decision to one school got in and by Dec. we were done. All good. Although I was in denial then too right up until we dropped her at school. But they're two different people so two different problems.
The trick for me will be in letting go. So far I'm not doing too badly. They managed to talk me into letting them go parasailing. For the second time. The first time it took 30 minutes of arguing. This time they're two years older and it only took ten minuets. Plus the oldest didn't need my permission. But I didn't feel faint this time when I watched them in this shot. Let me explain, you see when I look at them I see them as they are in the shot above. So can you blame me.

Diamonds & Divas Tour -Missy Lyons
Feb 8th
By Missy Lyons
Hi everyone! My name’s Missy Lyons and today I am guest
blogging on LaVerne Thompson’s blog. Thank you so much for having me out for
the day! Like LaVerne I am a writer. I love the land of make believe and it’s
been great to be able to make a career from the books I write. I write romance
and the heat can vary on everything from sweet to melt the sheets.
Lily Madison is just an earth girl who is so wrapped up in
her earth life that she doesn’t see past it. It’s hard to believe the two blue
men she meets are aliens. They have to be there because of publicity stunt. Lily Madison has
always considered herself kind of geeky, and never the kind of girl to garner
the attention of two sexy hunks who are out of this world hot. She has straight
auburn hair with red highlights that she always wears in a French twist at the
back of her neck, in a librarian style, finished with large brimmed glasses that
cover up her beautiful green eyes. The warriors can see beyond her clothes and
the beauty that lies within and there is no doubt, they want to possess her.
Saber
Rhoma is exceptionally tall at seven foot six inches and built like a pro
wrestler. He has light blue skin tinted by the ultra violet rays of his sun and
while he is on the planet earth it has faded until he returns to his home
planet. He’s a Krillian soldier and acts the part of a warrior. When he sees
something he wants, he just takes it, especially when it’s a beautiful woman
with ripe curves, hair the color of his red sun and green blue eyes that a man
could lose himself in. He has waist length hair that is kept in a braid
and a tribal tattoo on his left shoulder.
Ryder
Rhoma is the twin brother to Saber with shoulder length brown hair and blue
skin. His hazel eyes change color with his emotions, and when he is deep in
lust they glow a brilliant shade of amber. He is also a warrior on his home
planet, but he has a gentle way of making people believe they can trust him and
the ladies swoon when he is near.
Girvan Lee is a criminal mastermind who seeks power and world
domination. He has escaped sentencing on Krilia for attempting to take over the
planet, but is not ready to give up hope and has set his sights on Earth for
world takeover. Saber and Ryder will not leave until they have their alien in
chains but Girvan isn't willing to give up so easily either.
E.V.E. is the computer that runs the space shuttle. She controls
the environment and has state of the art voice recognition software. She is
programmed to have a personality and to keep the travelers company but also
makes synthesized food and controls every aspect of the shuttle and their
travel.
****
SIREN PUBLISHING
Aliens are taking over the presidential election and only
one human is immune to the mind control rays. The plate in Lily Madison’s head
protects her from the criminal Girvan Lee’s mind control weapons, but she is
stubbornly determined to find out what is going on, not even the sexy hunks
dressed as Roman Gladiators will get in her way.
Ryder and Saber are intergalactic bounty hunters. They
believe the human woman, Lily is their life mate but she is resistant to their
charms and attempted seduction. The stubborn woman doesn’t believe she can have
them both in her bed but they must have the patience to claim their mate.
If that doesn’t work, they aren’t above abducting her to
their home planet and seducing her into their shared bed.
This novel is now available at Siren
Publishing
