Author: Lorelei James
Date of Publication: December 2nd 2014
From the author of Bound and Unwound—an all-new novella in the New York Times bestselling Mastered series.
When Amery Hardwick first met
martial arts master Ronin Black, she wasn't ready for the level of his sensual
artistry, or his need for extreme control. Nor was she prepared for the primal
urges it released in her. Amery and Ronin were made for each other.
When they married they were
certain their future would be a fulfilling journey of love and passion. But
happily ever after is never so simple. Six months later, while in Japan, Ronin
is training with his sensei, while Amery is consumed by her own burgeoning
career, and a culture shock with which she is struggling to adapt.
Now, from the heady pleasures of
Tokyo bondage houses to the unyielding family traditions pulsing with every
beat of Ronin's heart, Amery and Ronin find the limits of their relationship
tested once again, and shocked to discover what they're willing to do in order
to save it.
Includes a preview
of Unraveled, the upcoming novel in
the Mastered series.

Excerpt #1
The bumps were jarring when the plane started to accelerate.
When it lifted off the runway, so fast, at such a sharp angle, she felt like
she was standing up. And for just a moment . . . she felt weightless, as if
she’d entered a zero-gravity chamber. Despite the stomach-churning sensation,
she turned her head and looked at him with a smile.
He wore a boyish grin. “Pretty cool, huh?”
“How’d you figure it out?”
“I crawled in bed before the plane took off one night and
damn near ended up ass over teakettle.
It’s a steeper climb for smaller jets to reach altitude.
Now, whenever I’m on this aircraft, I act like a kid who thinks he’s on a
rocket ship during takeoff.”
She laughed. “Crazy man-boy. I thought you dragged me to the
bedroom because you wanted me to join the mile-high club.”
Ronin rolled her on top of him and kissed her, mouth avid,
keeping his hands clamped on her butt.
Between his all-consuming kisses, he spoke against her lips.
“Maybe we should take the edge off.” He treated her lips to a few more teasing
kisses. “You seem tense.”
“You’re up for a quickie?” She moaned when he nipped the
side of her neck and then soothed the sting with hot, slow kisses.
“Who said anything about a quickie? It’s a long flight.”

Why do I have a particular fondness for all things western?
Well, I'm a fourth generation South Dakotan, living in the Black Hills, which
is chock-full of interesting characters, including cowboys, Indians, ranchers,
and bikers. The geographical diversity of the surrounding area showcases
mountains, plains, and badlands. Living in and writing about rural settings
gives me a unique perspective, especially since I'm not writing historical
westerns. Through my fictional world, I can show the ideals and the cowboy way
of life are still very much alive.
