Dark Dreams Mini Series is Complete

I've always LOVED vampire romance in literature. I started out with the young adult reads, then evolved into the adult versions. I always wanted to give it a go writing my own, but wasn't comfortable to just dive in. I started with book one and then worked off reader suggestions to continue the series. However, when I reached the point of ending the series, my reader-driven story came to a halt. Out of the three that the main character could've ended up with, the readers voted, and it was a three-way tie. Oy! It took me years to finally finish because I didn't know which way to go, and I did finally finish using my husbands idea to write ALL three endings. So here it is, the four books of the mini-series, with three endings! 

Now on KINDLE UNLIMITED!

Book #1, The 13th Floor

Book #2, The Otherside

Book #3, Time of Decision

And Book #4, the final book of the series, Conclusions

Luciana Mendez is a hard working editor for a fast paced, high-end fashion magazine in the city. Perhaps it’s the stress of an upcoming deadline for the biggest edition of the year that’s giving her nightmares. It might also explain the strange visions of the non-existent 13th floor in her office building.

Whatever it is, she starts having a hard time differentiating between what’s real and what’s not. If the dreams are real, she’s in big trouble, because something incredibly fast, large, and paranormal is stalking her deep in her sleep.

If it wasn’t for another being in her dreams, whose captivating scent and silver eyes she can’t seem to forget, she’d never go to sleep again. But with each slumber she falls deeper and deeper until she can’t fall anymore.

Cover Reveal - Off-Campus Setup, by Maria Vickers - m/m romance

Title: Off-Campus Setup

Author: Maria Vickers 

Cover Designer: T.E. Black Designs 

Photographer: Christopher John with CJC Photography 

Models: Connor Jay and Cody Grigsby 

Genre: M/M Romance

Release Date: November 25, 2017

Levi Cox left it all behind to go to school in California, but nothing could prepare him for what he discovers when he gets there. Between the university screwing up his living arrangements, the weird meddling old woman who runs the boarding house, and the fellow student who instantly catches his eye, life in Cali is more than he expected, and he isn’t sure he’s ready for any of it. College was supposed to be an adventure, but this might be more than Levi can handle. 

Nathan Orion wants to have fun. That’s what he lives for and it's exactly what his college years are supposed to be about. He’s happy with living the single life and being carefree…that is until the new student at his grandmother’s boarding house crashes into his life. Now he’s been recruited to show the new guy around, and if Nathan has his way, it won't be just on-campus.

Will there be more, or is this only an illusion? Two men thrown together, not expecting anything, but possibly finding so much more than an off-campus setup.

The setup is only the beginning. 

Goodreads

Levi:

Right now, I wanted to drop my bags, fall into bed, and put my feet up. And a tank of oxygen might help too. ‘How did people in L.A. breathe?’ I wondered to himself more than once as I walked from building to building on campus, and then again on my excursion to this boarding house.

Made it to the door without collapsing. That in itself was an achievement. Raising my hand to knock, the door swung open before it made contact with the hard surface. And unfortunately, the stranger who had jerked it open, hadn’t been watching where he was going and barreled straight into me. It was then my legs had decided to quit on me and I fell to the ground with him on top of me.

Maybe it was the weather or the exhaustion—or it could have been those grey eyes hovering over me, captivating me—but damn, I could feel my dick getting hard as he struggled to get up and ground himself against me. My only saving grace was that he got up before he noticed. Pulling me to my feet and pushing me slightly to the side, he mumbled an apology and then left me standing there as he rushed down the stairs and into a waiting car.

“California hospitality at its finest,” I muttered under my breath. So far, I wasn’t impressed and transferring after this semester was beginning to look better and better. Bruised ego, bruised tailbone, and legs of jello did not make for a happy Levi no matter how captivating the stranger was.

“Don’t mind him. He’s just a little pissy because I wouldn’t give him what he wanted. I swear that boy is too spoiled for his own good. Then again, I take some responsibility for that. Kind of my fault for indulging him.”

I turned my head and found an old woman with her hair dyed yellow. Not blonde…it was canary yellow. I squeezed my eyes shut to temporarily shut out the blinding color and focused on what she said. What was she talking about? Could it be that she was his sugar mama? I’d heard of such things happening from T.V. and magazines, but I didn’t realize things like that were real. I’d never met someone like that. “Ma’am?” I asked for clarification because maybe I was wrong.

Maria Vickers currently lives in St. Louis, MO with her pug, Spencer Tracy. She has always had a passion for writing and after she became disabled, she decided to use writing as her escape. She loves to write romance of all kinds because she is a dreamer and hopeless romantic at heart.  

❤✨ From the Author ✨ ❤

Life is about what you make of it. You have to live it to the fullest no matter the circumstances.

I have always loved books. Not only creating the stories, but reading them as well. Books transport me, and when I was younger, I would run into walls because I refused to put my books down even for a second. Take note, walking with books is not advised. LOL. 

With my books, I just want to share my stories with the world. I want others to be transported or to feel the emotions my characters feel. That is my goal with my writing. If I can do that for one person, I succeeded. 

Getting sick changed me and my life, but it also opened doors that I thought were closed. Today, even though I cannot do much, I still have my mind and I can write.

Can the bonds formed between high school friends survive separation and a taste for darker desires?

Devon and Troy were good friends in high school and fellow musicians, a bond that remained even after Devon’s stint in the Army. Their relationship with their close friend Cindy ended abruptly, despite the firsts that she shared with Troy and the obvious affection she had for Devon.

The guys have changed, and now their casual garage band is the successful group known as Sinful Souls. When Cindy finally meets them again, the guys discover that Cindy has also changed, and the only man she is going to accept into her life and her bed will have to explore the kinkier aspects of sex that she craves. Will either man be willing to share in her lifestyle or is what they had only a fond memory?

Romancing Blog Hop

My husband is the romantic type. I met him in high school, so yes we are high school sweet hearts =)  His romantic streak started early in our relationship. He would shower me with gifts, love, and attention <3

After he graduated (the year before me), he went away to Navy boot camp. After his training he was stationed five hours away. He would drive home to me almost every weekend, and on the way he'd stop at the convenience store by my house to buy me a red rose. 

While he no longer buys me flowers 20+ years later - because I forbid it (it's too expensive), my mother found a pewter tray with a rose. She bought it for us because she said it reminded her of all the red roses my husband used to bring me on his visits home.  So now we have a nice reminder (photo below).

Blurb from “Let’s Keep On Truckin’” (By Laci Paige and Decadent Publishing, heat level 4).

Lily loves traveling on her job since no one can do it better than her. Being out on the open road gives her plenty of time to reflect and avoid unwanted attention, but somehow it always finds her....

When she comes across Ryder, first at a grocery store, then at a rest stop, sexual desire sparks and she knew she had to have him. If only her ex hadn't shown up, igniting a fantasy she never thought possible.

Seeing Alex in a whole new light, Lily realizes second chances are in order, but will she have to choose between the two men? Or could she be happy with both?

Back Cover:

Liz is overweight, miserable and alone. When she walks into a bar
named ‘Lacey’s Lamp’ she has no idea what the future holds for her.
She doesn’t believe the red headed bar keep can grant wishes until she
finds herself transported back in time and the desire of every man she
meets.

Excerpt:

Elizabeth forced her legs to carry her bulk around the corner and down
the next street. Just two more blocks. Oh, who was she kidding? There
was no way she could lose the two hundred pounds the doctor ordered at
this rate. Maybe he was right, maybe she should book herself into one
of those 'health spas' he suggested. She snorted and continued along
the sidewalk. 'Health spa'…more like fat camp for adults. They'd make
her exist on dry bread and salads for sure. With a sigh she decided
maybe she would call tomorrow and arrange a stay.

A flashing sign caught her attention. Oh good, the deli was still
open. She might as well enjoy one last night of cheesecake indulgence.
As she got closer she realized the flashing sign was not the deli's.
It was dark and obviously closed. She paused and read,
“Lacey's...Lamp...Lacey's...Lamp. It flashed in bright neon pink. Huh,
must be a bar. Normally a bar was not the type of place she
frequented. After all, what guy would be interested in a three hundred
and forty eight pound woman, with blonde hair that was naturally as
curly as a poodle’s, no matter how many times a day she straightened
it?
