Love Baseball? Check out WILD PITCH by Gayl Taylor @gaylschat #1NS @DecadentPub #MF



WILD PITCH by Karyn Gerrard and Gayl Taylor

Published By: Decadent Publishing Company, LLC

Published: Oct 02, 2014 

ISBN # 9781613337523
Word Count: approx 15,000 1 Night Stand Series


BLURB:  When recently divorced Connie arranges a wild 1Night Stand date for her widowed best friend, Nicole, she’s only got her friend’s happiness in mind. But one glance at the gorgeous younger man waiting at the Cougar Cave convinces Connie to seize the opportunity to act out her own secret fantasy—a three-way—if Nicole is up for the challenge. After all, she doesn’t even know about the original plan. 

Cut from his Double-A baseball team, all Barrett Michaels wants to do is drown his sorrows. But he’s already paid for a 1Night Stand, and with the arrangements made, he decides to go through with it in hopes it will give him one night of happiness before figuring out what to do with his future. Though he asked for an experienced older woman, he receives not one, but two beautiful women, who offer a night of mind-blowing, sensual pleasure. 

Can Madame Eve’s special brand of magic ease the pain and tear down the walls surrounding the hearts of three lonely people?


EXCERPT: Connie Hollingsway had just found the meat filling for her hero sandwich. As far as she was concerned, the man met all the requirements she’d requested from Madame Eve, and he sat in the exact location where she’d been informed he’d be. Connie cast a quick glance toward her best friend, Nicole Sullivan, and amended her thought to, our hero sandwich. After all, she’d planned the evening for Nikki, as she could use the diversion. Truth be told, so could Connie.
Bass from inane techno music reverberated off the wood-paneled walls of the Cougar Cave. The club buzzed with excitement, pulsating with the promise of sex and the certain knowledge that one-night stands were the main item on the snack menu.
Connie’s gaze slid back to the hottie sitting alone in a booth directly across from them. The guy, in a word, exuded perfection. Ascertaining his age proved difficult under the flashing strobe lights, since he sat underneath a neon sign for Budweiser that cast a reddish glow over his stunningly gorgeous face.
She’d asked for a ruggedly handsome male under thirty, and the hunk seemed to fit the bill. His milk chocolate-colored, tousled hair had an I-just-rolled-out-of-bed appearance. Sexy. Like most young guys, he had scruffy whiskers, but her keen eye observed the delectable cleft in his well-shaped chin. Three empty beer bottles and a half-full glass sat in front of him, and he waved to the waiter for more.
A sly smile curved her mouth. She’d been told, via e-mail from Madame Eve, that the “man under the Budweiser sign” would be game for a one-night stand with an older woman. Drunk enough, he might even be open and willing to consider Connie’s shocking, but sensual suggestion. Warming Nikki up to the idea might prove a challenge though.
Connie had been about to speak, but the words died in her throat the moment he rose, shook off his leather jacket, and hung it on the coatrack on the back of the bench seat. Her mouth dropped in shock, but she quickly recovered. Taller than she’d first imagined, he stood at least a few inches over six feet. A skin-tight black T-shirt hugged his powerful physique. Tucked into a pair of incredibly tight blue jeans, it showcased his torso to sculpted excellence. Denim strained across rock-hard thighs, a muscular, ass and—her held breath whooshed out and ended in a moan—showed off an impressive package. Man-meat was sharpened into hardened precision, enough to rival the marble statues of Greek gods. Even better than she could’ve hoped for.
She had to get a closer look.

This fall, take a trip to the space station or another planet for only 99¢! #scifirom #99cents @jsubject


Hello readers! I hope you are all doing well. It's fall here in Canada, time for crunching leaves, Thanksgiving turkey (we celebrate Thanksgiving the second Monday in October), getting ready for Halloween, and something most of us dread, cooler temperatures. We had to scrape frost off the windows of our vehicles for the first time of the season yesterday morning. It won't be long before the dreaded "S" word falls to the ground.

This is last winter. Hopefully we're spared a little this year.

But fall is also a time for cuddling up with a good book. And I have two titles on sale during October for only 99¢. Here's more about them...


Another Night, Another Planet
a 1Night Stand / Elatia story

Erotic Sci-Fi Romance

Limited by status…

Ava is a housekeeper aboard Star Spirit, a luxury cruise ship travelling between the Milky Way and the Belvarian System. Coming from a middle-class family on Earth, she is considered by passengers as nothing more than an object to be tossed away when they’re done with her.

Shunned because of his lineage…

Banned from several planets across the universe, Nate struggles to run his interstellar shipping business. But the DNA of an exterminated race runs through his blood, giving him a diluted form of their powers, and leaving him labeled as a terrorist.

Both searching for the one…

Through her 1Night Stand dating service, Madame Evangeline matches these two together for a celestial escape on the pleasure planet, Elatia.

Will Ava and Nate find what they’re looking for, or will their date be just another night on another planet?

Only 99¢ at:


Also available as an audiobook!




Unknown Futures 
a 1Night Stand story 

F/F Science Fiction Romance 

Attacked as a young adult, Jewel is left scarred and alone. She applies to the 1 Night Stand service, believing no one can see past her appearance to love her. But she doesn’t expect to be sent to a space station where her date could be any number of unusual alien species.

Flavia left everything behind to be one of five humans working for the Space Service space station. Extremely homesick, she is excited to learn she will be a guide to a woman from Earth visiting the station for a couple days. She is immediately drawn to the petite woman, seeing past her scars to her true inner beauty, stirring unforeseen desires.

Unfortunately, Jewel is there for a date which Flavia hasn’t been told about. Can she contain her lust and simply show her a good time? Or will she let her desire lead them into an unknown future?

Almost Gobble Gobble Time

And no, that's not supposed to be dirty!! lol

In Canada, this time of the year, the leaves are changing, the days are getting cooler and it's almost time for our Thanksgiving. Lucky me, this year it lands on my birthday.

For me Thanksgiving has always been the official end to summer. It's time to put away the light jackets and shorts. Sob a tearful goodbye to my sandals and dread the approach of winter.

I might be Canadian but I HATE the cold, lol.

Most years, I end up with my brother and his family over, so 6 kids in total and depending on the year, 4-6 adults. It means lots of cooking, especially with my finicky children. But, I do enjoy the chaos--because I then totally appreciate the silence when it's done :D

Thanksgiving is also the signal that it's time to get my mommy butt in to gear prepping for Halloween. With 3 kids, two which still trick-or-treat, costumes are super important. This year I'm going to have a Sleeping Beauty, Star Lord (not Groot sob) and some kind of dead cheerleader. When it comes to decorating, my hubby has a blast. He loves setting up his gravestones and lights and every year, we find a spooky new addition. The guy eating the rat with sound effects is the biggest attraction.

We've also got to plan a day to go pumpkin picking, because my kids love carving. And I love the mess, NOT! lol. But it's tradition.

What traditions do you have this time of year?

Canadian Locations in Books - Where would you like to see a book centred around?

Over the years I've tangled with the thoughts of where to place my paranormal series Mistress of Forsaken Souls. Once upon a time I had considered pitching the idea to a bigger publisher, but changes are that they would have me change it.

My other paranormal series I have sitting on the sidelines for when I'm ready takes place in the GTA (Greater Toronto Area, Ontario). Yet, MOFS needs to be surrounded by forests. The backdrop has to be ideal for werewolves, demons, and Livia Garcia - my heroine, who just happens to be a reaper of demon souls/slayer.

For the most part, I would love to host the series in the Algoma region. Do you have any recommendations?
