From sweet to heat - the stories from Lee Ann Sontheimer Murphy

 


If you visit any of the online book sales sites, you can see that there are about fifty or so titles – some as Lee Ann Sontheimer Murphy (contemporary, romantic suspense, paranormal, holiday) and a few as Patrice Wayne (historical romance).  I have several publishers – Evernight Publishing, Champagne Books, World Castle Publishing, and CleanReads. A few eBook titles are also on Amazon Kindle Direct.

                All of my books are not equal.  Some are full length novels, others are novellas or shorter works. Some are part of anthologies. They also range in content from sweet to heat, meaning some titles are sweet romance (sometimes also called clean romance) and others are sensual in nature. The levels vary on that, too.

                Since some readers care what kind of books they read, I’m going to give some tips. Anything published by CleanReads is sweet. This includes Scarred Santa, Tidings of Comfort and Joy, The Marriage Cure, the sequel What Fills The Heart, The Courtship of Ebenezer Scrooge, Gray’s Good Samaritan, The Widow’s End, Ronan’s Blood Vow and The School Teacher’s Scandal.  All are eBooks.

 

                Anything from Evernight Publishing, whether it’s a full-length title or a Romance on The Go, is sexy. The characters have sex. I happen to think my works are not as full blow sensual or as “dirty” as some authors but just a word of warning – all my titles from Evernight will have sex. And, as of now, they’re all eBooks.

 

                Books from Champagne Books and World Castle are more middle of the road. There’s some sex but not really as intense as the titles from Evernight. These are also, mostly, in paperback as well as eBooks.

                I think sometimes it’s harder to find a publisher for sweet than sexy. I’m submitting around a sweet romance that I think readers will enjoy once it finds a home – Scrooge and Marlee. I’m working on another that is also sweet.

                I’m not at all ashamed of any of my titles – but I’ve been asked often so I thought I’d share some insight into how to find the kind of books a reader prefers, sweet or sensual. Some readers, like me, will read a book if it captivates me either way.

                So there’s the skinny on my titles.

                Happy reading!
