This book is available for pre-order for $2.99.
This month has had me steeped in paranormal romances. First Masque re-released on October 1st (link) and then Passion's Poison re-released on October 15th (link) and now Pleasures of Christmas Past has been completed and is up for pre-order.
Of course, that means I'm on the look out for another classic piece of literature to be inspired by for another paranormal book. I think a series would be good this time, but I need to find the right story. Any suggestions? If you have any, please leave them in a comment and be sure to preform the other Rafflecopter tasks for a chance to win this hand decorated Venetian mask made in Italy. This is 1 of only 2 more I'll be giving away this month, so be sure to enter. Good luck!Always, Lexi

Lexi, you know what I'm rooting for! I would love to see a PN twist on Romeo and Juliet with a happy ending for once! If anyone can do it, it's you and it would be fantastic! I'm super excited for Pleasure of Christmas Past. A Christmas Carol is another one of my all time favorites and I can't wait to read it with a "Lexi Twist" on it. :)
ReplyDeleteAshley I had totally forgotten that you had suggested that a while back. Uh-oh, now you've got my creative juices flowing! That story has excellent possibilities. Thank you for the reminder :-)
DeleteHaha, well you can count on me to keep reminding you if you forget. ;)
DeleteGood. You may have to do that :-)
DeleteI think MacBeth. I'd like to see how you heat that up!
ReplyDeleteUgh, that is such a depressing story. I would probably have to use MacDuff as the hero :-} Those Macbeths are nuts ;-)
DeleteHmm. I think the Merchant of Venice might be a good one to adapt your brand of writing to Lexi.
ReplyDeleteHmm, I'm sensing a Shakespeare theme developing here :-) That play definitely has a villain I could sink my teeth into ;-)
DeleteI know that whatever you choose to write, it will be great! Sue Van/Haven Malone
DeleteI wonder what you could do with Arabian Nights, it would be interesting I am sure :)
ReplyDeleteOh, good one Darlene. I bet there is a lot of fodder to use in that one. I have to re-read it. It's been a lot of years since I read it. I love re-reading classics as I get such great inspiration from them :-)
DeleteYou may be able to do something cool with the premise of Scrooge.
ReplyDeleteHmm, kind of doing that with this series :-)
DeleteSo far these the only one I can think of is A Christmas Carol
ReplyDeleteHmm, could that be because the above book is inspired by that story? ;-)
DeleteSo far these the only one I can think of is A Christmas Carol
ReplyDeleteWell, it is the season :-)
DeleteI love known tales with a twist... as for a specific one... I am drawing a blank... so many great options out there! :)
ReplyDeleteThere are, which is why I will never run out of inspiration!
DeleteMuch Ado About Nothing, I love the comedy and depth of the characters. Shakespeare nailed it with this one.
ReplyDeleteAnd that one has some great hero potential! Great idea :-)
DeleteI would love to see a take on Jane Eyre or The Picture of Dorian Gray.
ReplyDeleteOh, either of those would make great paranormals!
DeleteEmma
ReplyDeleteI really like Emma by Jane Austin, but I have a niece by that name, so I would have a difficult time writing an erotic romance unless I changed the name :-}
DeleteOne of my favorite books is set in Arabia. Maybe something with Arabians, diviners, camels, tents in the sand, oasis's. Thst would be cool.
ReplyDeleteKatt, that would definitely lend itself to paranormal. Maybe even a genie :-)
DeleteI have a love for all things Shakespeare. Basically anything related to something he wrote.
ReplyDeleteThat is an awful lot to choose from :-}
