</strong></p>
<p>In a moment she had the panel back open, and was knocking on Shon&#8217;s door. It slid open, and the greeting she&#8217;d planned died on her lips at the sight of him in nothing but white linen pants. Ebony skin stood stark against the material. It was thin enough that she had little doubt he entertained the same need she suffered from.</p>
<p>The breadth of his chest and the cut of his muscles brought an ache deep in her pussy. He was primal and delicious. &#8220;Hello.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;I really like that you purr for me.&#8221;</p>
<p>Kaia arched an eyebrow. &#8220;Your ego is astounding.&#8221;</p>
<p>He held out his hand. &#8220;I&#8217;ve piqued your curiosity.&#8221;</p>
<p>Kaia tilted her head. One hand touched the curve of her throat. His eyes tracked the movement with sensual precision, leaving Kaia breathless. She strolled past him, letting her tail slide up and around his body.</p>
<p>&#8220;Has your Jake decided on a plan?&#8221; Was that a growl she heard in his voice? Her pussy slickened, and repressed feral appetites jumped again to the surface.</p>
<p>&#8220;Jake isn&#8217;t my anything. And yes, he has. We move when it&#8217;s time to attend the fireworks.&#8221; Her pussy ached. Damn, this was insane.</p>
<p>&#8220;And?&#8221;</p>
<p>A purr rumbled from her chest. &#8220;Until then we keep ourselves secure in your room.&#8221;</p>
<p>Her tail caressed his chest, and flicked away when he would have touched.</p>
<p>&#8220;Whatever will we do with the time?&#8221; Shon let the door fall shut. Kaia saw the subtle shift from host to predator, in the lines of his body, in the way he watched her. Shon locked them in with a quiet click of the mechanism. A sound that ricocheted through her heart, beating it into a rapid staccato.</p>
<p>&#8220;You play a dangerous game.&#8221; His voice was a warning growl, likely meant to startle or warn, but left Kaia with moisture dripping from her pussy.</p>
<p>&#8220;Would you prefer I leave?&#8221; Kaia lowered her lashes and waited, body primed for lust.</p>
<p>&#8220;You&#8217;re past that option now, sweet.&#8221; His expression turned hungry, and his pupils dilated. A spicy scent filled Kaia&#8217;s senses.&#8221;It&#8217;s begun.&#8221;</p>
<p>The hair on the back of her neck stood on end. &#8220;What has?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;The hunt.&#8221; His grin was primal, dark.</p>
<p>Kaia slowly backed away, keeping her hands in front of her. &#8220;Do you like the suite?&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s large and accommodating enough for my needs.&#8221; Fangs gleamed with his smile.</p>
<p>&#8220;What needs would those be, Elder?&#8221; Her inner muscles tightened with repressed excitement. When would he &#8211;<br />
He moved, faster than any biped she&#8217;d ever seen. Kaia sprang from her spot, and ran through the entryway to the large sitting room.</p>
<p>Kaia kept the furniture between them while they stalked each other in a circle, each movement keeping the other equidistant. Shon ran his fingers down his hard chest until they hooked under the waistband of his linen pants. In seconds they dropped.<br />
Kaia&#8217;s mouth watered at the sight of Shon&#8217;s hard dick. Thick and round and just as delicious as the rest of him. She wanted to taste, to lick. And if he didn&#8217;t do something soon, she was going to throw him down and fuck him. While her instincts protested that, she was human enough in her genome to want some satisfaction.</p>
<p>His palm stroked the length of his cock. A soft mewl escaped her throat, and she bit her lip to keep silent. His other hand touched his balls, rolling them around in his fingertips. What would her pale hands look like on his skin?</p>
<p>&#8220;You have no place to go. Why don&#8217;t you give up?&#8221; His mocking smile brought a spark of anger to the surface of her lust-filled mind.</p>
<p>&#8220;You should know what happens when a cat is cornered, honey.&#8221; She was tempted to strip as well, but stayed her hands. Soon enough.</p>
<p>&#8220;I might.&#8221; He stalked and the slow dance began again.</p>
<p>Kaia licked her lips. His body was beautiful. Sweat slicked his skin. Each movement was like sex in motion. He moved forward and she backed away. Shit, he was changing his direction. Her pussy creamed in anticipation.</p>
<p>He stepped forward again and she backed up. Her thigh hit something hard. Pain shot down her leg and she hissed through her teeth. He pounced and she jerked away, using her other leg to spring from her position.</p>
<p>She dropped to all fours and her gaze slid between his cheeky grin and the table his hand now caressed. Ambushed by a table. Her pride smarted a bit.</p>
<p>&#8220;I can taste your lust in the air.&#8221; His slow inhalation drew her gaze back to his cock. Fluid pearled at the tip and she moaned softly. Her hand touched the bruised muscle of her thigh, soothing the ache.</p>
<p>&#8220;I can see yours.&#8221;</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[&nbsp;&nbsp;<div class="meta"></div><p>Here&#8217;s one of those&#8230;I can&#8217;t believe I have to explain this&#8230;kind of posts. Over the past couple of weeks I&#8217;ve received half a dozen emails from people thinking I&#8217;m a different Dawn Montgomery (and a lovely amount from people looking for the author, Thank you guys!).</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a lovely model in Georgia who&#8217;s recently been in several magazines and photo shoots. I&#8217;m not her. So please stop sending me all the wicked and downright scary things you want to do to this poor woman. I hope she has body guards and an incredible sense of danger. I have no way of getting hold of her, so don&#8217;t send me emails that way either.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s a Jeri Dawn Montgomery in Houston who accidentally killed someone b/c she was texting while driving. Anyone who knows me knows how I feel about texting while driving. As a matter of fact, I hate phones as a general rule, so it wasn&#8217;t me. (Nevermind the fact that I don&#8217;t live in Houston and am not serving a prison sentence). So please stop sending me hate mail about irresponsible texting. I assure you, this isn&#8217;t me.</p>
<p>The awesome female basketball player. She&#8217;s awesome&#8230;really. You need to see her play. I did and I was amazed. But nope, not her. I&#8217;m only 5 feet tall. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>So maybe I should tell you a little bit about myself. I&#8217;m short, chubby with red hair, blue eyes, and pale skin (and freckles!) that can only come from major sun avoidance. I&#8217;m Irish, Scottish, and Shawnee in my heritage which makes me all-American. LOL!</p>
<p>I&#8217;m happily married and have some of the best kids in the world&#8230;even if they do their best to drive me crazy. I&#8217;m scatterbrained and spend my time making people laugh or making them feel comfortable in their own skin. I&#8217;ll never be a model or basketball player. To be honest, the only sports I like are solo sports. Hiking, running, walking, weight lifting&#8230;I&#8217;m picked last in pick up games b/c I am just that bad. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Dawn Montgomery is a penname.</p>
<p>For those of you who wonder why I &#8220;hide&#8221; behind one, I need only look to the stalker-eque emails for these other Dawns to confirm my instincts. My family is my life and endangering them by allowing unknown people access to my personal information is reckless.</p>
<p>This will be posted up on my &#8220;About Me&#8221; page under the FAQs.</p>

<p><span style="color: #c0c0c0;">Prairie dogs may be low on the food chain, but Riley Cates is anything but. More man than dawg, he’s finally carved his place in Barkus. Until Tara walks back into his life. Now there’s no turning back, because once Riley has his taste, he’ll never be able to let her go.</span></p>

Christmas Eve 2006 was the day I was contacted with a publishing contract and was published two weeks later. So 2008 was officially my 2nd year as a professional author. Wow.</p>
<p>So what happened in 2008?</p>
<p><strong>January</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I introduced you to my <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/01/01/happy-new-year-2/">sketching madness</a></p>
<p><a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=780">Bound Eternally</a> released from Changeling Press, the final chapter in my Bound Trilogy</p>
<p>I had an anniversary bash with all my Aspen peeps. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>My dear friend, and fellow LAW lady, Maggie Nash, <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/01/13/maggies-news/">was released</a> from her Triskelion contracts after a long legal battle. Much rejoicing commenced!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.aspenmountainpress.com/anthologies/winter-anthologies/babes-in-toyland-ii/prod_103.html">Babes in Toyland 2</a> was selected by Love Romances and More Cafe as honorable mention for best anthology 2008.</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.leagueofamazingwriters.com/wp/">League of Amazing Writers</a> threw me a birthday bash on January 24th.</p>
<p>The month was ended with a somber tone. Cynnara Tregarth&#8217;s mother passed away. My heart broke for her.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>February</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>February dropped me right in the middle of <a href="http://70daysofsweat.com">Sweating with Sven</a> for the second time. I made that goal, but only two of the four novellas were published. LOL!</p>
<p>My <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/free/">free reads</a> section got a new look and a few new pieces went up, including the Romance Divas annual free ebook challenge.</p>
<p>Many reviews came down for <a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=749">Bound in Fury</a>, <a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=727">Bound in Lust</a>, and <a href="http://www.aspenmountainpress.com/anthologies/winter-anthologies/babes-in-toyland-ii/prod_103.html">Babes in Toyland 2</a></p>
<p>San Antonio, Texas had an earthquake&#8230;hmm, wow.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>March</strong></p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=820">Spaceport: Bounty</a> released from Changeling Press!</p>
<p>The <a href="http://www.leagueofamazingwriters.com/wp/?m=20080301&amp;cat=3">League of Amazing Writers</a> reopened the site with a whole new look! Much celebration commenced!</p>

Man she&#8217;s talented. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=749">Bound in Fury</a> was nominated for a golden rose as best cover art, 2008.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>May </strong></p>
<blockquote><p>My family and I moved to a new house on very short notice. I set up <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/05/21/the-cave/">my writing cave</a>. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>As a gift to myself (and something that was far more portable than my other laptop), I got the <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001BYF2WK?ie=UTF8&amp;tag=jerrydrussell-20&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=B001BYF2WK">ASUS eee laptop</a><img style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=jerrydrussell-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B001BYF2WK" border="0" alt="" width="1" height="1" />. I love it take it with me just about everywhere I go. It fits in a portable DVD case so I have pockets <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>More reviews and <a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=749">Bound in Fury</a> won the Golden Rose for best coverart!</p>
<p><a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=895">Rookery Cove: Ocean&#8217;s Call</a>, my very first m/m/f menage, released from Changeling Press. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

<p>The flooding in Iowa had writing friends trapped. It was not a good time.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>July</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>My husband&#8217;s birthday rolled around and I gave him a little love letter on the blog. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>A few more reviews and a unanimous poll in favor of my writing a novel. I&#8217;m still working on it!</p>
<p>Phenomena Authors had a<a href="http://www.phenomena-authors.com/tag/balancing-motherhood-and-writing/"> Left Behind and Loving It workshop</a> on balancing motherhood and writing. <a href="http://pbackwriter.blogspot.com/">Lynn Viehl</a> was the sponsor of the series and we had a blast!</p>

<p><strong>August</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>My anniversary and my son&#8217;s birthday. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I began and completed a hand to hand combat course, continuing on to complete certification to teach self defense. (Just rereading my entries from that month made me hurt all over again).</p>
<p>I had a few reviews and an interview with the owner of <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/08/28/aspen-mountain-pressan-interview-with-the-owner/">Aspen Mountain Press</a>.</p>
<p>I started my <a href="http://twitter.com/Dawn_Montgomery">Twitter Account</a>.</p>
<p>We found out our son may be autistic.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>September</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I re-evaluated my writing goals and began the <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/personal-writing-challenge/">personal writing challenge</a>, named Whiskey Straight &#8216;08. I blame <a href="http://www.romancefiction.co.uk/Home.html">Kim Knox</a>. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' />  It was all her idea&#8230;really!</p>
<p>Hurricane Andrew hit and we had evacuees up in northern Texas. Many of my old school buddies were affected down in Houston. Definitely not a good day.</p>
<p>I re-organized my website</p>
<p>Lexxie Couper <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/09/29/new-trailer-spaceport-bounty/">made me a new trailer</a>, this time for <a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=820">Spaceport: Bounty</a>. She&#8217;s a dream to work with.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>October</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>I <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/10/03/mini-rant-genre-snobbery/">ranted on Genre Snobbery</a>.</p>
<p>My main laptop showed the first signs of slow painful death.</p>
<p>I realized in October that I couldn&#8217;t figure out how to balance life and writing without sacrificing some part of life. This was where my personal stresses were driving me insane and the pressures of work kept rising.</p>
<p>I started my free read serial: <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/tag/angel-in-the-search-of-the-star-sapphire/">Angel of Law in the Search for the Star Sapphire</a>. Yes it&#8217;s very tongue in cheek, but it&#8217;s fun to write. Wicked Wednesdays was born.</p>
<p><a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=1012">Masqued Tails</a> released from Changeling Press!</p>
<p>Our son is diagnosed with autism.</p></blockquote>
<p><strong>November</strong></p>
<blockquote><p>NaNoWriMo started&#8230;and I wrote 75K words. &#8216;Nuff said about that.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/11/12/really-good-news/">Burn Out was selected</a> for Liquid Silver Books&#8217; Worth Every Risk anthology.</p>
<p>Record making election year from both Republicans and Democrats.</p>
<p>70 Days of sweat started again. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>I hosted weekend speedwriting sessions at Realms of Love every weekend during NaNo.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/11/19/pushing-through/">I finally found balance</a>.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/11/24/shes-not-here/">Hubby hijacked my blog</a> to let everyone know I&#8217;d finished NaNo early. At that point I didn&#8217;t update my word count anymore. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>Our son spoke his first words in months and has shown so much more progress than we&#8217;d ever hoped.</p>
<p>My hubby put up a chat room at <a href="http://www.phenomena-authors.com/">Phenomena Authors</a>. <img src='http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p></blockquote>
<p><strong>December</strong></p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://changelingpress.com/product.php?&amp;upt=book&amp;ubid=1036">Ginger Snaps: Serendipity 5A</a> released from Changeling Press!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.aspenmountainpress.com/del-fantasma-winter-break/prod_203.html">Del Fantasma: Winter Break</a> released from Aspen Mountain Press!</p>
<p>Four contests, a coffee time romance chat, three reviews for Serendipity 5A, and a return to Wicked Wednesdays.</p>
<p>The writing frenzy of November caught up to me and I ended up on the ick end of sick.</p>
<p>I received notice of a job transfer. It&#8217;ll be temporary (doesn&#8217;t feel that way at a little over a year) but my family can&#8217;t accompany me since there will be no place for them to stay, and no way our son can get the care he needs. Other personal stuff accumulated. Pressure from work increased for two weeks while our section was being evaluated.</p>
<p>Record breaking frigid temperatures all across the country. New Orleans got snow&#8230;</p>
<p>More <a href="http://www.dawnmontgomery.com/2008/12/23/from-the-sketchbook/">sketchbook</a> love&#8230;</p>
<p>On a personal note, December was an emotional rollercoaster I hope to never go through again. Ever.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.aspenmountainpress.com/index.php?act=viewProd&amp;productId=103">Babes in Toyland 2</a> is a Capa Nominee at The Romance Studio.</p></blockquote>
<p>There are things I&#8217;ve missed, I&#8217;m sure&#8230;but just writing this makes me exhausted. Whiskey Straight will end with me about 40K or so shy of my goal, and that&#8217;s okay. I&#8217;ll set up new goals for 2009, ones that are achievable.</p>
<p>Next year will be interesting&#8230;</p>
