Hidden books can still sell! Success with Role Reversal #Gay #Erotica #indie

Role Reversal was the first M/M book I self-published. My excitement over this release quickly vanished after Amazon slapped it with the Adult filter. This meant that unless readers searched through my Amazon author page the book was invisible. My sales plunged before they really picked up in the first place. I figured the book was a lost cause and hopped to get a few sales on the other sites like Barnes and Noble where it wasn't filtered.

Recently I dropped the price of Role Reversal to 99 cents and advertised the sale. With a direct link to the book on Amazon readers would be able to find it.

I took out ads at four free advertizing sites that send out newsletters to their subscribers. I pushed it on Facebook for a couple days, but I'm not really a promo machine. So I sit back and waited to see if anything would happen. It wasn't selling before so any sales would be a success.

Results?

Far better than I expected!

Role Reversal jumped from 992,050 to 21,967. Whoot!

Last time I checked it was

#79 in Books > Gay & Lesbian > Literature & Fiction > Erotica > Gay

Role Reversal will be on sale through March 1st

Blurb:


When his former love interest reappears in his life can he get over the man's betrayal and embrace the future?

Before the War Between the States, Andrew had deep feelings for Robert, but he couldn't express his desires. When the family fled Atlanta, he ran away to obtain his freedom. Ten years later, Andrew is not only free but the wealthy owner of several barbershops in New Orleans. Only one thing is lacking from his life: a long-term lover. When a customer tells him the whorehouse hired a new male prostitute he hopes visiting him could ease his loneliness. Only in his wildest dreams did he imagine the man to be Robert.

The war turned Robert's life upside down. Without slaves to work his plantation, his father sold Robert to a brothel. Robert hates what he does for a living, but he doesn't see a way out. Heartache hits him when he thinks about his past and happy memories of Andrew. The man deserted him when they were children, just like everyone he cared for had over the years.

Love is Love - Valentine's Day #GLBT #BlogHop 2015

My M/M historical romance Role Reversal is special for many reasons. 1. It is my first BDSM book. 2. It is an idea I've had in my head for a long time and it took me almost a year to finish. 3. It is currently hidden on Amazon.

While not banned Role Reversal has been slapped with the Adult filter even though it isn't any hotter than my other titles. I guess I shouldn't say that too loudly or Amazon might hide my entire backlist. I am very proud of Role Reversal. It is the first book in His Dark Master series.

Excerpt:

Robert lay stretched over the foot of the bed, waiting for Andrew to take him. His heart pounded an erratic rhythm in anticipation. For all the men who had fucked him up until now he’d been merely a toy. None of them had cared about his feelings, but Andrew was different because of their shared past. As his manservant, and bodyguard from the bullies at school, Andrew had taken care of him, been nothing but generous and kind. He knew the dominant man would possess the same care and generosity in the bedroom and this fuck would better than any he’d had before.

Andrew put a warm hand on the small of his back and leaned over him. “Have you had a plug before?” he whispered in his ear.

Robert swallowed. “Y-yes, Sir.”

“Good. Then you know what to expect. I am going to give you a plug. It will stretch you and make you ready for me.”

Andrew walked away for him for a moment probably to get the plug and some cream. Robert spread his legs wider, letting him know he was ready.

Andrew ran both hands from his waist to the round globes of his ass. While he delighted in the man’s caress he wanted more. The man separated his cheeks and then licked his hole. Robert gasped, surprised by the man’s moist wet tongue.

“You taste like my milk and honey soap,” Andrew said in a deep rumble. “I want you to spread your cheeks for me.”

Robert reached back and grabbed his ass, pulling his cheeks apart. Stuck in this position he could barely move. Maybe that was what the dominant man wanted.

Silence. Robert turned his head and saw Andrew open a jar of cream and spread a liberal amount all over his thick dark fingers.

Robert turned his head into the mattress and prepared himself to be entered.

Andrew slipped a finger into his hole and massaged, eliciting a tiny moan. “Are you ready?”

“Yes,” Robert hissed. He was more than ready.

For His Pleasure - #interracial #historical #MMromance

Here is an excerpt from For His Pleasure the short story in Sexy to Go, Volume 1.

Blurb:

A black slave and white plantation owner’s son narrowly avoid being separated when the estate is sold. Forced into poverty they must work hard to survive. But through the hardship their love endures.

Mini Excerpt:

“Don’t even think about denying me,” James replied with more force than he intended. He swallowed around the lump in his throat and his voice softened. “I’ve been dreaming about nothing but this.”

“Is that so?”

James knew the question wasn’t meant to be answered.

Daniel’s hand slipped from his back and the man walked to the head of the bed, turned and put his hands on James’ shoulders.

His skin tingled where his lover touched. James saw that Daniel was bare-chested and grinned.

The less time spent with undressing the better.

Daniel’s blue eyes bore into him and James returned the unmasked lust.

“For His Pleasure” is the start of a serial. Daniel and James continue their struggle to find a place in the world in Sexy to Go, Volume 2. “Lust in Bloom” will be as hot as the southern August heat!

I am a history buff and Antebellum South through Reconstruction is my favorite. If you like reading “For His Pleasure” then you might also like to read my other M/M historical titles:
