Exactly at midnight on May 5th, 2006 Mahogany Messeroux cast a spell to obtain the perfect man.  She never dreamed the spell would deliver Acacius Montoya, a warrior straight from the Battle of Puebla, Mexico in 1862. For Mahogany, it was love at first sight. But--there is just one problem. The handsome Latino must return to his own time after every Cinco de Mayo and can only be summoned once a year. Five years later she discovers she has the opportunity of saving the man she loves and keeping him in her world on a regular basis, or so she thought.

Acacius Montoya is doomed to repeat the same day at the Battle of Puebla for all eternity thanks to an evil warlock, Maximilian. The ebony bruja intervened just in time to save his soul from The Harvester. But who will save Mahogany from making a mistake that may cause her to miss the spiritual evolution necessary in shaping  her future as a person and a witch

Cinco de Mayo was a time to celebrate Hispanic heritage. Persia Andersen would like to celebrate it alright-after all, it was part of what had created Michael Fernando, director and owner of the Help Center where Persia is employed. Too bad Michael had never shown the slightest bit of interest in her or anyone around the Center. Until that magical night when inhibitions are set free. Persia found she wasn’t the only one hiding attraction.

From the locker room to the bedroom these two dynamic people keep the timbers burning. While the fireworks are going on outside, Persia and Michael create their own brand of fireworks inside. Come join Persia and Michael as a Brooklyn block party to celebrate the holiday turns into a night to remember, Michael’s style.

Joaquin wants Dawn with a passion that borders on obsession. She was sister's best friend, and so he'd always considered her off limits. Yet he could never run away from her, he never let her go even if it was only in his head and heart. Her presence in his mind was the only thing that kept him going at times. The rigorous training in the Marines had been grueling, dirty work- it was thoughts of Dawn that helped get him through. Then his sister, Carmen, wrote him a warning. Dawn was seriously dating another man. Joaquin knows he has to make his move now, or lose her forever.

There has never been another man for Dawn other than Joaquin. Sure, she's dated guys and had her fun, but Joaquin was always her ideal, no one could ever leave up to him. Unfortunately, there was no way she could ever tell him how she felt. If he’d wanted her, she was right there, and he’d never made a move.

Then came the annual neighborhood Cinco de Mayo celebration.  Joaquin sees Dawn with his arch rival- there was no way he was going to allow that to happen. She was his, it was about time he claimed her. Things just go up hill from there…

***Continuation of sorts to His Willing Prey***

Miguel Estrada had the pleasure of being the wet dream of many a woman.  And why shouldn’t he be?  At 6’2” and 235 pounds, he had the kind of body that was most often found gracing the cover of fitness magazines.  He also had the kind of hair that was usually found headlining hair shows, which is why he rarely wore the glossy raven mane loose.   Despite his jaw-dropping good looks, Miguel wasn’t just good to look at, he also had brains.  A nose for bullshit, and a knack for winning, along with a J.D. (with highest honors of course) from University of Chicago, netted him a partnership in one of the nation’s top law firms…and all of the perks that came with it.

All in all, Miguel Estrada was the shit…and he knew it…and failed to pretend otherwise.  These days Miguel didn’t waste time pretending a damn thing including love, hate, and fear.  Ironically, he loved, hated and feared in equal portions.  He hated injustice, ignorance and bigotry.  He loved the women in his family, justice, and tres leche cake.  Before meeting Entity Vivace, he’d feared nothing.  After meeting Entity, he came to fear the chaos Entity might conjure up, the wrath of Entity’s sister, and when he was honest with himself, he feared the hold Entity had over him.   Of course, he wasn’t admitting that last bit to anyone.

A black woman with junk in her trunk, an imagination that knows no bounds and a big sister who specialized in making her dreams come true, Entity Vivace was your run-of-the-mill ex- windsurfing and snowboarding champion turned entrepreneur.  She had a thriving internet business, shops in South Beach, on North Shore, and now in Southern Cali.  What she didn’t have was Tyler Morah—the hottest man on a board since the invention of the surfboard—which is why she’d turned to Miguel Estrada for help.  Miguel might be three parts asshole and one part MF, but he was one of the most badazz attorneys…anywhere. 

She’d asked him nicely to help her procure Tyler and she gave him a week to make it happen.  Being the epitome of goodness and light that she was, she also gave him a list of repercussions of what would happen if he didn’t heed her.  Silly man, not only did he not heed her, he ignored her.  That left her with only one thing left to do: take him down.  Knowing how much he liked tres leches cake made by his friend Carmen Rodriguez, she intercepted said culinary orgasm and ransomed it back to him…never realizing how far he’d go to get his tres leches cake back.  Of course, he didn’t realize how far she’d go to bend him to her will.    And neither of them had any idea how far their friends would go to see them together.

Lost & Found by Shara Azod

It was all the monkeys fault. Kara was minding her own business, sort of paying attention to their Amazon guide, when the furry little beasts decided she would make an excellent target for their fruit missiles. Convinced they were leading her somewhere, she followed. Mistake number one. Okay, so wandering in the rainforest wasn’t such a good idea. But really who could blame her for thinking she’d died of some unknown disease while lost and alone in one of the world’s most dangerous habitats. And when you died, didn’t you get a gorgeous angel type to escort you to heaven? Mistake number two. But what happened next was anything but a mistake.

Be sure not to miss "Walk Softly and Carry a Big Lick by Jeanie Johnson and Jayha Leigh coming soon to Beautiful Trouble Publishing, the last of the A is for Amazon Rainforest series!


The Chevalier Series

Available only at www.sharaazod.com

New Orleans Chevaliers

Complete collection of all five of the Chevalier books in limited edition ebook sold exclusively here for a limited time. Includes Thierry's Angel, Remy Goes to Therapy, The Taming of Katrina, Forever Jade and Lessons for Solange. Retail value $20.95 sold for $11.99!

Book One - Thierry's Angel

In New Orleans, where old Southern lineages root as deep and tangled as the haughty Cypress, two powerful families become entrenched in a battle to preserve pedigrees. For the past nine years, Thierry Chevalier, the strikingly handsome, well-bred, polished son of one of the oldest, most powerful white families in Louisiana, has been harboring an impassioned desire to captivate the woman of his dreams. His desire, Angelique Dubois. Graceful, delicate and sensually delectable, Angelique seems as unattainable as she is desirous: the daughter of New Orleans' mayor; member of a proud Black Creole family; and engaged to another man. But when opportunity opens, their fates are magnetized. The tempest of passion, power and pride that erupts is more sweeping than a steamy Gulf Coast monsoon.

Book Two - Remy Goes to Therapy

With a family like his, Remy had learned not to take anything too seriously and to never let them see him sweat. He had learned long ago to hide his feelings behind laughter and his desires behind snark. Until Regina. There was something about the lovely doctor that went way beyond having a little fun. She brought out things he didn’t know how to deal with and made him face a past he thought dead. Remy decides it is definitely time for some therapy, and he knows just the doctor to see.

Book Three - The Taming of Katrina

Return to New Orleans... On the outside, she is fire and ice. But cool, calm, and collected Katrina Smith isn't all that she seems. Like a rippling pool, waves from her past continue to shake her inside. Aubrey had always been the studious one, but Katrina finds that his depth of knowledge goes far deeper than just books. He knows how to set her body ablaze while calming the storms in her sea. But can their love survive the maelstrom of trouble that finds them?

Book Four- Forever Jade

Jade had forever been seen as the good girl, the one who is always in the shadows, never in the forefront. She may have yearned in her heart, but would never expect to have caught the eye of not one, but two men from the power Chevalier clan. She certainly would never imagine them fighting over her. Although Rance may be the man she has always dreamed of, Didier may be the safer of the two. Especially with someone wanted her away from Rance so badly they were willing to try to kill her to do it. Rance Chevalier had a lot to hide. But not even the darkness of his past can stop him from claiming the woman who set his body and soul on fire. He would fight his own past, the unseen threat to her life and even his own flesh and blood who thinks to take her for his own to make Jade forever his.

Book Five - Lessons for Solange

Solange was in trouble. There was no way out, she was caught. Yes, she had been blackmailing her cousin’s no-good fiancé, but she had never meant for anyone to get hurt-not physically. Determined not to beg, she would accept her punishment like a woman. That DID NOT mean cowing or begging however, not even to the powerful Chevalier family.Beaumont and Boden knew they had found a rare treasure. All they had to do was break through that shell Solange surrounded herself in. But first they had to get her to trust them with her secrets, and eventually her heart.

And don't forget the Chevalier prequel-

Red Skies At Night

Teane McGowan was damn good at her job. An engineman in the United States Navy, she worked hard in a male-dominated rate. Brett Olden could not believe his eyes.

He’d always played by the rules and thus kept it professional even when his body and libido demanded otherwise.

Basic Flight Maneuvers

Undoubtedly, one of the best pilots she was acquainted with, she could find no fault with the way that he treated the crew or his plane. But she could fault him for his infectious smile and those wicked hazel eyes as they were interfering with her hate of him. If only she didn’t lust after the man, her world would be just fine. A man good at calculations, Seth couldn’t figure out Petty Officer Pippa Tanner. An easygoing guy, everyone liked him. And then there was Pippa - the one woman that he couldn’t stop thinking about. Everything about her drew him in and he'd draw her in if only she would give him half a chance to change her mind.

Shades of Gray

Bobbi is a woman used to being on her own. She never allows anything to ruffle her feathers and depends on no man for anything.
