New Release from Sabrina York: Lust Eternal

New Release from Sabrina York: Lust Eternal

For me, as I think has been the case with most authors, Fairy Tales form the base of our understanding of story.

My latest release is a variation on the Magic Lamp trope, with our hero consigned to the lamp, saddled with the curse of eternal lust. The…

I don’t remember how old I was when I fell in love with my first Fireman. Maybe it was when I was five and my mom’s car was sideswiped by a semi sending us careening down an embankment. My mom had a broken arm, my older brother had a broken collar bone. What really made me fall in love with them was Quick Response. You see I have a racy heart, otherwise known as SVT. Two years ago I was…

Hot for Firefighters: Combustion and Meltdown! Creating a title for a novel can either come to me in a flash or take forever to decide. When my firefighter romantic suspense novel came out in ’02, I had played with more than one title, but decided Combustion described not only a fire, but the heat of romance. Eventually I refashioned the book into an erotic romance and the book was released with a different publisher, but I kept the title. Not…
