Hey guys! Today we have a special guest: #1 Amazon Erotica bestseller, Alex Lucian! He was kind enough to agree to an interview about his latest erotic book Tempting. This steamy erotic novel promises to turn you on and keep you awake way past midnight, deliciously obsessed by its sinful nature.
Your book is the first of a series and is already #1 in Amazon, tell us what surprises we should look for in Tempting?
In the author's note, I was very up front about this not being the typical student/teacher story, and it's not. Even though I was honest about that, I think it still surprises readers that it's not the main conflict of the book. And being the number #1 book in Erotica was fairly mind-blowing to me; I never expected that. But I think readers are reacting to this being a different twist on a popular story.
Tell us where you found the inspiration for Nathan and Adele? Do you use people you know as visual inspiration?
Normally I wouldn't say, because I think everyone who reads the book will 'see' them differently than I might, but I have to admit to Amber Heard being my Adele. When I saw her in The Rum Diary, I thought she was pretty hypnotizing.
Haha! Who is your favorite character from your book and why?
If I said Adele's father, I'd be chased with pitch forks. No, in all honesty, I couldn't pick one. Adele and Nathan affected me equally while I wrote them.
Give us an interesting fun fact about the creation of Tempting.
I didn't listen to any music while I wrote Nathan's sections. For Adele's, I had an entire playlist. Listening to music enabled me to clue in my brain to which character I was writing--because Nathan's was always silence. My hope was to make their individual voices unique, but not a completely different writing style
Interesting. What can we expect from you in the future?
I have three more books planned in this series, all following characters we've already met in Tempting. One was only in there for a brief scene, but he'll be very important to Nathan and Adele's next book, Provocative, which follows Beguiling. Beguiling is Leo's story and while it goes in a more humorous direction, it will still be very sexy.
We will be sure not to miss this. How about a snippet from your current book?
It would be my pleasure, this is from Chapter 3, and is a small bit of my little vixen Adele at work:
I took a quiet breath in, inhaling his scent and the memories that came from it. And then I lifted my head just as the slacks came into my view.
I stared up at him and watched as his face changed. From indifference to confusion to awareness, he stared at me for a beat longer than he’d stared at any of the other students.
He turned his head to the left, giving me a view of his chiseled jaw and I watched as he clenched his teeth, the muscles around his mouth shifting, seemingly composing himself. His profile was strong, sturdy, and when his eyes turned back to mine they were devoid of everything.
“Why am I here, Professor Easton?” I prompted, my voice soft. My hand came up to the glasses hanging in my shirt and I watched his eyes follow the movement. One eyebrow lifted in reaction and he flicked his eyes to mine again.
“For you, of course.” My words were breathy and seemed to hold him still in my grasp.
