Keira Andrews

 

Julie: What influenced you to get published? How long did it take for your first book to get published?

 

Keira: When my good friend Tory Temple published her first book, Heat, it inspired me to finish the novel that had until then existed largely in my head. I submitted my query and first three chapters to Loose Id and received the standard email stating it would take a couple of months for an editor to get back to me. I heard from them in only two days, which was very exciting, and I had a contract by the end of the week. Love Match was published a few months later. 

 

Julie: When a new book comes out, are you nervous about how readers will react to it?

 

Keira: Always! I don't think those jitters ever go away.

 

Julie: Is music a factor for you while you are writing? Do certain songs put you in the right frame of mind to write certain stories?

 

Keira: I usually don't listen to music when I'm writing. I prefer white noise, and I actually have a white noise machine that just makes a steady sound that blocks out any noisy neighbors. It's great for sleeping, too. (Although I try not to sleep and write at the same time!)

 

Julie: What is your writing process? Do you outline, fly by the seat of your pants or a combination of both?

 

Keira: I tend to outline in my head, since I'm blessed with a very good memory. I'll jot down notes, but once I have the outline of the plot set in my mind, I'll start writing. It's a combination of planning and letting the story grow and change as it progresses. 

 

Julie: Any advice for aspiring authors?

 

Keira: I'm sure it's been said many times before, but if you love writing, don't give up. Also, a good editor is your best friend.

 

Julie: What's next for you?

 

Keira: I'm working on a young adult novel. I've always loved the genre, and it's proved to be a really fun change of pace. The biggest challenge is keeping any sex or romance scenes strictly PG-13. I'll be writing another adult romance later in the year, though — I can't stay away for long!

 

Julie: What books are currently on your nightstand?

 

Keira: I'm almost finished rereading the classic Australian novel A Town Like Alice by Nevil Shute. It's a terrific historical adventure, romance and love letter to the Australian Outback. Next up is Ransom by Lee Rowan, about two naval officers who fall in love in the 1800s. I'm a big fan of forbidden romance.

 

 

When not writing love stories, obsessing over her favorite TV shows, or spending far too much time online, Keira makes her living as a copywriter in Toronto. A passionate world traveler, she has a weakness for road trips, and it doesn't take much to convince her to get behind the wheel and crank the stereo up. Keira also loves to read, watch movies, go to the theatre, work out, and eat (although not necessarily in that order).

Hot Summer by Roxanne Rhoads

This story is rated 4 flames. Frequent, explicit love scenes described using graphic and direct language.

 

 

It was a very hot and humid summer night during the middle of the week. A full moon hung overhead that seemed to contribute to my boredom and restlessness. The house was sweltering hot without air conditioning. I had to get out. I gave my boyfriend, Chris, a call then went to pick him up in my tiny Chevy Citation, since unfortunately his large truck was in the shop.

 

Since it was the middle of the week there wasn't much going on. We drove around for a while trying to find something to do, but it was already late and the only places open were bars and nightclubs, which we weren't interested in. I was in the mood to be naughty; it must have been the heat. I felt like running naked in the moonlight or having sex on the hood of the car.

 

We ended up at a local park with a beach figuring we might give skinny dipping a try. There was already a car parked there and we could hear splashing and laughter. We smiled at each other then turned around and left, not wanting to interrupt anyone else's fun. Plus we wanted our own privacy.

 

"Now what?" I said to him.

 

"Go across the street, there's another park," he pointed out to me. I didn't know it was there.

 

We drove across the street to another park. It must have been a popular "parking" area because there were several cars already there and several more drove past us once we found a secluded area nestled deep in the woods along a private path.

 

The little car had no air conditioning and it was getting hot fast, and so were we. Within moments my breasts were bare and his large dark hands were on them. I undid his shorts and released his already erect cock. I maneuvered myself around in the tiny car so that I could reach him. I leaned down and started licking his large shaft like it was a cool popsicle. I devoured him, taking him deep into my throat while he moaned and thrust against my lips.

 

Soon we were overheating, sweat drenching our bodies. We rolled down the windows to get some air and settled back into brief foreplay. It was still sweltering hot and we couldn't get into any comfortable positions in the cramped front seat of the Citation. Moving the seat all the way back and laying it down didn't help much.

 

Finally I opened the door and climbed out.

 

"What are you doing?" he asked.

 

"I'm going to get comfortable," I replied and stripped off my shorts and panties and threw them into the backseat. I stood there butt naked in the middle of the woods my pale skin glowing in the moonlight.

 

His eyes grew large as he stared at me naked and glowing.

 

"You are so beautiful," he said to me as he stepped out of the car.

 

Chris removed the rest of his clothing so we both stood there completely naked, except for our shoes. His dark skin was a beautiful contrast to mine. He wrapped his arms around me. The feel of our naked bodies pressed against each other out in the open was exhilarating. Moisture spread between my legs and I wanted him inside me. I pushed past him and turned my back to him as I leaned against the side of the Chevy. I arched my ass in his direction and he accepted the invitation, quickly sliding his caramel cock into my glistening pink folds.

 

I spread my legs far apart and arched my ass up so I could take him into me as deep as possible. He thrust into me harder and faster as I moaned louder and louder. Suddenly I heard a noise to the left of us.

 

"Stop, did you hear that?" I asked him.

 

"Here what?"

 

"I heard a noise over there in the bushes," I pointed to the left.

 

He pulled his dark rod out of me and walked towards the area I pointed to. There was suddenly a loud rustle and something or someone took off into the woods crashing through the brush and no longer trying to be quiet. Chris turned around and started walking back to me, his cock still glittering in the moonlight from my juices.

 

He smiled, shrugged his shoulders and said, "I guess someone was getting one hell of a free show tonight."

 

I didn't feel comfortable standing outside anymore plus we started to notice that mosquitoes were having a feast on our hot, horny bodies. We opened the hatchback and crawled in. At first we were going to leave it open but I couldn't shake the feeling that someone was still watching us. I kept hearing noises in the woods and expected to see some crazy pervert with his dick hanging out or see Bigfoot pop out of the trees at any minute ready to make our little party a trio.

 

Honestly I think Chris liked the idea of being watched because he just seemed to get more turned on every time I said something about it.

 

"Come on babe, you are so beautiful you have nothing to worry about, nothing to hide. Who cares if some pervert was watching us and jerking off? I think it's erotic, having sex while someone's watching."

 

I didn't agree. I thought it was kinda creepy, especially since we were out in the woods. Maybe in a different setting, but in the woods… This is how horror movies started.

 

He tried to make me forget. Chris pushed me onto my back, legs spread with his face buried between them. I had one foot on the roof and another foot pressed against the back window while Chris's butt was pressed against the hatchback. I almost giggled thinking of that site from the outside, but the giggle turned into a moan as his tongue started circling my clit. He was so good, swirling and teasing then dipping his tongue deep into my pussy then going back to lick and suck on the clit as he pushed a large, dark finger into slippery pink flesh. Within minutes I gushed all over his finger.

 

After my explosion Chris climbed on top of me, sliding his huge black cock deep inside. I didn't care about anyone watching anymore, but it was too hot in that tiny little car. It was so hot we were sweating, slipping and sliding all over the place. Our hot bodies were sticking together.

 

"Baby, you gotta stop!" I moaned.

 

"What? Why?"

 

"Please, it's too hot. We have to open a window or something."

 

He climbed off me and popped the hatchback open and jumped out. His dark skin was slick with sweat and illuminated by the moon. My breath caught as I stared at him. I no longer cared if anyone was watching, I just wanted to fuck the hell out of him.

 

"It's your turn to lie down in here," I said pointing to where I was sitting.

 

"OK, babe, not a problem." He climbed into the hatchback with me and got comfortable. "Aren't you going to shut the hatchback?"

 

"No, it's too damn hot."

 

"Aren't you afraid someone will see?" he teased me.

 

"To hell with it, let them watch," I laughed.

 

"That's my girl."

 

I climbed on top of him, impaling my pale body on his dark shaft, sliding him deep inside my moist hot tunnel. I gently rocked back and forth at first, grinding into him. I kept feeling like eyes were watching me, but it started to add to the excitement. I thought about what it must look like, my body riding him, up and down, watching him slide in and out of me. I got so turned on I sat up and back as far as I could pushing his cock deep up inside me. I rode him like I was possessed. Moans and animal-like noises escaped from me. I became completely uninhibited. Orgasm after orgasm rocked my body as he thrust up and into me, meeting my demands.

 

By the time we were done it was a sauna in that tiny car even with the back end open. We both had probably lost 5 pounds. I couldn't find my underwear anywhere and had to drive home without panties. The next day there were smears, handprints, footprints and even a butt print on the back window of the car. Telltale signs of a very hot and steamy encounter. I did manage to find my underwear while I was cleaning the windows
