Price Reduction... Some of Ella Jade's hottest books!

In an attempt to stay competitive in this market my wonderful publisher has decided to mark some of the eBooks on my backlist down. 

How cool is that?

If you haven't read me yet this is a perfect opportunity to snuggle up this weekend and meet some of my scorching hot, dominant, sexy heroes. If these have been on your TBR list now is the time to read them.

Here are the blurbs to the books you can find at a discounted price.


Can the sub teach the Dom to play? 

Natural submissive Gracie Miller thought she had found her other half in Cade Jameson. Not only did he help her through a difficult time in her life, in the bedroom he brought her more pleasure than she could have ever imagined. They seemed perfect for each other. 

Cade knew what he wanted in the bedroom. Gracie brought out his domineering side and ignited his passion. But he feared he was too dominant for this beautiful, naïve girl, who was so young and impressionable, so he ended their relationship. 

Two and a half years later, Gracie returns to town a new woman. She had moved to the city and found a "Master" who showed her what she was truly capable of. Now she's back and wants to show Cade exactly what kind of submissive she could be for him. 

But after hearing all that she's experienced, Cade now wonders if he's dominant enough to satisfy her. Can he be the man Gracie needs him to be?

Sassy lawyer Arianna Covington relocates to New York City after a humiliating divorce. She's looking for a fresh start when she agrees to become Martin's exclusive attorney. She's intrigued by his domineering personality and wants to know why women kneel at his feet. 

Their attraction is undeniable despite Ari's initial beliefs that she will never submit to Martin's desires. But Martin is up for the challenge. Arianna is more than he ever imagined in a woman. He vows to claim her heart, with or without the games. Who will surrender first?

Lucas and Katherine enter into the perfect arrangement to fulfill their sexual needs, but what happens when their hearts get in the way? 

Shy, awkward receptionist Katherine Sierra wants to explore her sexually submissive side. Although new to the BDSM world, she’s eager to learn. When she attends a play party and submits an application to one of the most experienced Doms in the room, she has no idea what she’s gotten herself into. 

Successful businessman and hardcore Dominant Lucas Cain knows his way around a playroom and doesn’t normally take on brand new subs. He’s apprehensive about training someone so innocent, but the more time he spends with Katherine the more intrigued he becomes. She may be everything he’s been searching for. 

But when Lucas requests that Colin, his friend and mentor, join them in the playroom for an evening of fun, it just might change everything. 

Has Lucas broken his own rule and fallen in love with his sub?

An affair and a shocking secret threaten to tear apart a rich and powerful family. 
Claudia Samson, housekeeper to the privileged Callahan family, finds herself alone and pregnant after a brief fling with Gavin, the youngest Callahan son. When she informed him of the pregnancy he accused her of running a scam and made it clear that she was on her own. 

Brody Callahan, Gavin's older half-brother, has devoted his entire life to running the family business. He doesn't realize what he's been missing by throwing himself into his work until he finds Claudia asleep in the family guest bedroom. He has discovered his very own Sleeping Beauty. Intrigued by the young woman, he vows to get to know her better. 

Although Claudia is instantly attracted to the charismatic businessman, she knows her secret will destroy any chance they have for a future together, but Brody's awfully hard to resist. 

Meanwhile, as Gavin watches Brody and Claudia's relationship develop, he begins to devise a plan to use the secret to his advantage. He wants full partnership in the business—something he was denied by both his brother and their deceased father—and maybe now he can finally obtain it. 

Can Brody and Claudia survive the storm, or will the secrets and blackmail destroy both them and their love?

Surrender to Me... Giveaway!

The Character That Forced Me To Surrender…




When I wrote the sexy novella Make Me Stay, I never intended there to be more than that book. It was a second chance story about a fun and sassy woman who knew exactly what her man needed and how to give it to him.



Can the sub teach the Dom to play?

Natural submissive Gracie Miller thought she had found her other half in Cade Jameson. Not only did he help her through a difficult time in her life, in the bedroom he brought her more pleasure than she could have ever imagined. They seemed perfect for each other.

Cade knew what he wanted in the bedroom. Gracie brought out his domineering side and ignited his passion. But he feared he was too dominant for this beautiful, naïve girl, who was so young and impressionable, so he ended their relationship.

Two and a half years later, Gracie returns to town a new woman. She had moved to the city and found a "Master" who showed her what she was truly capable of. Now she's back and wants to show Cade exactly what kind of submissive she could be for him.

But after hearing all that she's experienced, Cade now wonders if he's dominant enough to satisfy her. Can he be the man Gracie needs him to be?

***
In Make Me Stay there was a secondary character named Martin (he was the Dom who Gracie found in the city). He appears in one chapter in that book but he took a hold of me and many readers. When I finished writing MMS, I realized Martin’s story needed to be told. I had to give him a happily ever after. Martin is probably one of the most captivating men I’ve created. Here’s his introduction in Make Me Stay…

A soft knock at the cottage door pulled her from her thoughts. Her heart fluttered with the possibility it could be Cade. Maybe he was ready to talk. She ran to the door and quickly pulled it open, never expecting to see him standing on the other side. She stepped back and let him enter. As he turned to close the door, she immediately dropped to her knees.

“Master,” she said. “I didn’t expect you.”

Gracie lowered her head and waited for Martin to speak. Her heart pounded against her chest just from his close proximity.

“Do you know how beautiful your submission is?” Martin slowly walked around her. She didn’t have to see what he was doing. She felt his presence and visualized him taking in her body. He gently stroked his fingers over her neck, causing a chill to course through her entire system. “As much as it pains me, you no longer wear my collar, so you shouldn’t be on your knees.”

She looked up at him and smiled.

“Please.” He extended his hand for her. Once she was on her feet he pulled her against his strong, muscular chest, wrapping his arms around her. He placed a soft, comforting kiss on the top of her head.

***
The above scene was the very first piece I had written for MMS. It takes place almost at the end of the book. That was also the first time I had ever started a book at the end. It was that exchange between Martin and his former submissive Gracie that Make Me Stay was built from. When it was time to tell Martin’s story, I realized I was always meant to write a book for him.

Surrender to Me picks up where Make Me Stay ends. It’s double the word count of MMS because Martin had so much to say ;) Although it is the sequel both books stand alone.

Two Years? Really?

Today I'm celebrating my two year anniversary as a published author. My first novel debuted on this date in 2011. It was in the New Adult genre (wasn't called that back then but that's what we would refer to it as today).  Lots of things have changed in those two short years with the industry and me as a writer. I've grown as both an author and a person, made lots of new friends and found a home at a pretty amazing publishing house. My nostalgia got me to thinking about all of my publishing milestones over the past 730 days and June seems to be my hot month.



Be My Everything was contracted with Beachwalk Press in June 2011. At that time I had just released my first novel, so imagine my surprise when another contract popped into my in-box. I was thrilled someone would take a chance on me and my first attempt at erotic fiction. This book went on to become an Amazon Best Seller. I had no idea then that I'd be gearing up to release my seventh title with this fantastic publisher. The Weekend Proposition will release in September. I'm both humbled and thrilled for the opportunity.



Last June I signed a contract for Something More with Beachwalk Press. Never before had I fallen so hard for my hero. I'll admit I love all of my men, but Brody Callahan stayed with me long after I put the pen down. One of the biggest compliments for me is when readers message me and tell me how much they love him. I always respond back that every woman should have a Brody in her life. Seriously, the man is so loyal.


What's happening this June for Ella Jade? In a word... Martin! 



Never before have I been this keyed up for a release. I'm always excited and a bit jittery when a new one of mine hits the virtual shelves but Surrender to Me is like no other release of mine. I have people Facebooking me, tweeting and emailing me at least once a day telling me how they can't wait for June 17. Martin Abrams appeared in one chapter of my novella Make Me Stay and stole the hearts of many. Now I get to tell his story!




Thanks to all of you who have made these past two years such a success for me. I can't wait to share what I have in store for you next. Please follow me on Facebook for all the details surrounding the release of Surrender to Me including a massive blog tour, contests, giveaways and details about the next book I'm writing featuring Martin and some other characters from Make Me Stay and Surrender to Me.

“I told you I’ll never kneel for you.”  Arianna slipped her bottom lip between her teeth.
“Hmm.” Martin ran his lips along her jaw, stopping at the corner of her mouth. “Kneeling may be overrated.”

Surrender to Me Cover... Meet Martin


I'm excited to reveal the cover for Surrender to Me. This novel releases in June and tells the story of Martin Abrams. If you read Make Me Stay you know Martin.
 
Surrender to Me is his story. This is the sequel to Make Me Stay but the book stands alone.
 
 
Isn't that gorgeous? There's even a scene in the book that the image represents. I'm thrilled about that!
 
When I wrote Make Me Stay, Martin was intended to be a secondary character. He's mentioned throughout the book but  only appears in one chapter. After Make Me Stay released, I realized Martin really didn't get his HEA. He went back to NYC alone. That bothered me. There was never supposed to be a sequel but when a sexy, hot Dom demands his story be told, well, I had to listen.
 
Here's a little peek...

What happens when a Dominant falls for his not so submissive attorney?

Martin Abrams, owner of Master M's BDSM club, has become complacent in his lifestyle. Ever since his sub, Gracie, left to marry her true love, Martin has lost his way. In the market for a new real estate attorney, he hires Arianna. He never saw the sexy minx coming.

Sassy lawyer Arianna Covington relocates to New York City after a humiliating divorce. She's looking for a fresh start when she agrees to become Martin's exclusive attorney. She's intrigued by his domineering personality and wants to know why women kneel at his feet.

Their attraction is undeniable despite Ari's initial beliefs that she will never submit to Martin's desires. Martin is up for the challenge. Ari is more than he ever imagined in a woman. He vows to claim her heart with or without the games. Who will surrender first?

Featuring Cade and Gracie from Make Me Stay.

Can't wait until June to meet Martin? Get to know Cade and Gracie in Make Me Stay. Here's a taste from the first time Martin is introduced...
 
 
A soft knock at the cottage door pulled Gracie from her thoughts. Her heart fluttered with the possibility it could be Cade. Maybe he was ready to talk. She ran to the door and quickly pulled it open, never expecting to see him standing on the other side. She stepped back and let him enter. As he turned to close the door, she immediately dropped to her knees.

"Master," she said. "I didn’t expect you."
 
Gracie lowered her head and waited for Martin to speak. Her heart pounded against her chest just from his close proximity.

He gently stroked his fingers over her neck, causing a chill to course through her entire body. "As much as it pains me, you no longer wear my collar, so you shouldn’t be on your knees."

She looked up at him and smiled.

"Please." He extended his hand for her. Once she was on her feet he pulled her against his strong, muscular chest, wrapping his arms around her. He placed a soft, comforting kiss on the top of her head.
"I’ve missed you," she whispered as she hugged him hard against her.

"I’ve missed you too, love." He released her and looked her over. "You’re thinner, and you’ve been crying."

"I’m fine," she assured him. Martin was always so concerned for her well-being.
"Hmm." He shook his head and stared intently at her with his stunning green eyes. "I don’t think that’s true, and you know I don’t like when you lie to me."

"What are you doing here?" She took his hand and led him to the living room.

"The last time we spoke, I didn’t like the way you sounded." He sat down on the sofa and patted for her to sit next to him. She stared at the sofa and then at the floor by his feet. "Whatever makes you comfortable."

"Thank you, Sir." She dropped to her knees by his feet and he tangled his fingers in her hair just like he would when she was his submissive. His touch was always so soothing to her.

"I need you to speak freely," he said as he stroked her hair.

"You came all the way here because you didn’t like the way I sounded on the phone?"

"I had business to tend to not far from here, so I decided to check on you," he said. "How are things going?"

"Okay."
 
"Don’t lie to me. I already warned you once. I wouldn’t have any aversion to taking you over my knee."

See why I love him?
