(Yeah, see what I did there?)

Hey kids, hop on over to the Erotic Muses blog and check out Bonnie Dee’s serialization of a novella, Liberating Lucius, which I believe was previously published by the now defunct Venus Press. Here’s the information:

Today I’m going to begin serial installments of a novella.
Liberating Lucius was once available at a publisher, but I’m now giving it away as a free read. I’ll post a piece each Friday until the tale is complete, and then put a PDF up at my site for free download. This will give new readers an idea of my style and old readers a freebie to enjoy. Plus, let’s face it, a serial story gives me weeks and weeks where I don’t have to think of something to blog about! There may be an occasional interruption to the story if I have a new book to promote, but I’ll try to keep that to a minimum.

I swear I didn’t steal the serial story idea from Bam’s blog. I’ve planned to do this for a long time. Check out Eventide, Darragha Foster’s story at Bam’s The Serial, now.

If you’ve read Liberating Lucius in the past, you’ll find some changes in the story, more cosmetic than plot-based. I edited to bring it closer to my current style of writing.

“Helena, a Thracian noblewoman, has been stolen from her home and sold as a slave. She is determined to hate her new master and escape at the first opportunity. She certainly doesn’t expect to be physically attracted to the young Roman who possesses her or to connect with him on a deeper level.

Tribune Lucius Calpurnius is taken aback when he’s presented with a beautiful woman as a gift from a friend, yet he can hardly release her into a camp full of soldiers. He intends to keep her as a servant and return her to her home when he is able. But it gets more difficult every day to keep away from the woman he desires, first with his body and later with his heart.

As they become lovers and slowly forge a bond, the outside world threatens to tear them from one another. Can Helena rise above her slavery to save herself and the man she has come to love?”

Hey, I think I reviewed this book once.
