What every author dreads...

I woke up Saturday morning to news that MGP (Mardi Gras Publishing) was in trouble. The owner had been offline with computer problems from the beginning of August and to date, is still offline. No new books have been released and the authors are in a panic.

I have eight books with this publisher, along with over 60 covers I have created for authors of MGP. I am one of the lucky ones that was paid for the last quarter, but many have not faired so well, finding out some never have been paid and others had their checks from MGP bounce. All this adds up to big-time trouble for the publisher. Though, I will never recoup any money for July and beyond, I know there are good and responsible publishers in this field and look forward to my books finding their way to those types of publishers.

Happy hot reading,

Skylar Sinclair.

JERR gives Rearing Heat the Silver Star Award

Skylar Sinclair has crafted a passionate romance story filled with sizzling hot and creative sex. The paranormal theme with shape shifters is well thought out. The plot by switching between humans and horses kept me fascinated and wanting to learn more about the lives of such creatures. Ms. Sinclair presented strong romantic feelings between the two main characters Dex and Shayla in both human and horse forms. She had me hanging on to make sure they found happiness. Dex is the man every woman wants. He is also the stud every mare wants. Shayla is the woman who struggles to find the man of her dreams. Shayla as a mare learns about what it means to have a family and what her mate must be. As I watched the characters shifting between human form and that of horses I was intrigued by how a strong take charge male in either form is so appealing to a female. The sex scenes in both forms were sizzling hot and had me wanting to be Shayla I could feel the strong romantic bond between Dex and Shayla grow as the story unfold. The hot sex scenes presented the strong needs both characters experienced in a very real and gripping way. Ms. Sinclair’s wonderful writing style had me captured from the beginning and I had to read this short book in one sitting. I urge every woman that enjoys a good creative paranormal erotic romance with intriguing erotic sex scenes to read this book.
