Just got the new cover for WHAT SUKI WANTS

WHAT SUKI WANTS is finished - in fact, it's at proof stage already - and I've been playing with a new idea for an erotic novel but I'm not quite sure how to progress with it. I think one of the problems is that I feel as though I broke new ground with WHAT SUKI WANTS and can't go back to the sort of erotica I was writing before. Yet to go much further forward might mean leaving the genre altogether. A thorny problem.

Well, let me tell you a little bit more about WHAT SUKI WANTS instead, because at least I'm on solid ground there.

I got the cover art recently for WHAT SUKI WANTS. It's a great shot of a slim scantily-clad blonde in white lace hipster knickers and bodice-style bra kneeling in front of another girl in lurid pink panties, which are half pulled down, the inference being that the blonde is about to taste the other girl's ... well, you get the idea! I'll get it scanned in soon and show you a sneak preview. Anyway, it's a provocative cover, with the photography attributed to Shackled Maidens.


WHAT SUKI WANTS
Suki is 21 years old and drifting; a waitress in a Midlands transport cafe, she lives alone in a motorhome and likes to sleep with women. Haunted by the memory of her dead girlfriend, a bisexual American called Magdalen with depraved SM tastes, she gives up waitressing and takes to the road again, heading north to Holy Island in Northumberland where they first met. Whilst in the wilds of that rugged countryside, Suki is drawn back into the seductive decadence of her old life, meeting an old flame of Magdalen's who likes to paint his girlfriends in the nude - preferably chained up - and soon begins to experience what she's been secretly missing for years.

WHAT SUKI WANTS will be published in April 2006. If you can't wait until then to get your hands on Cat Scarlett, you can find me quite easily on the UK amazon site or the US amazon site. Just type in Cat Scarlett and hit Search.
