Today I want to share a little from another new release of mine: Fever Hitch. This is the first tale in the Earth Con series, a collection of stories to come that center around comic book conventions and aliens. This story was a lot of fun to create, such as all the different alien species to discover. But it wasn't only me to delight in this creation. My heroine has quite a fun time of it as well.

She'll be their perfect mate...if they can keep her satisfied.
Felicia Walker loves her job as an illustrator at Fever Hitch Comics. During
this year's annual Earth Con, she will not only draw caricatures, but
she'll also be decked out in body paint to represent the F'ldae -- an
alien species from the comics. As she starts off a night exploring the
off-limits, alien side of the convention, Felicia is unprepared for the
spiraling events that will make her behave like a true F'ldae... in full
mating heat.
Agent Slate Reese, along with his best friend Agent Ryker Seals, are Metons who want to settle down, but they're having a difficult time finding the female to complete their mating trio. With the vast assortment of alien species converging on this area, surely there's one female who wouldn't mind spending a night with both of them.

Excerpt:
“And
these, ladies and gentlemen, are the new species you’ll discover over the next
year in Fever Hitch’s new series. First off we have…”
Felicia
Walker set her hand on her hip and prepared to follow her associate onto the
runway. She, like a dozen other Fever Hitch employees, had been asked to dress
in costume as the various new species the comic would introduce. As an
illustrator, she’d been ecstatic at the opportunity. She’d chosen to represent
the lovely F’ldae species. And because this species was known for their skin
coloring, Felicia’s costume didn’t come with pounds of heavy-weighted material.
Instead, she wore body paint. She’d spent all morning being airbrushed and the
effect was so real she’d swear she wasn’t human.
“Up
next is a F’ldae.”
Felicia
strode onto the runway, stepping high in her heels, loving the way the
micro-mini flirted about her swaying hips. The simple matching sling top barely
covered her breasts, but showcased the gorgeous lavender paint to its best
advantage. She smiled, amazed that she felt so confident striding in front of
everyone in so little clothing, but the body paint made her feel completely covered.
The
emcee addressed the audience. “The F’ldae is an extremely timid species
specializing in modes of communication. They are the ones who will…”
Felicia
turned at the end and struck a few poses as she’d been taught. The lavender
color covered her sides and gradually darkened to a deep purple that ran in a
line from her nape to her tailbone. Along her sides, the color slowly faded into
a wavy vertical pattern, to her natural caramel skin color along her belly,
breasts, neck and face. The lavender was offset by shadows of a mix of deeper
purple and indigos.
To
her mind, the F’ldae were the most gorgeous of alien species she’d seen, but
she only knew a fraction of what was really out there.
“You’ll
notice her left side is slightly different from her right by the addition of
the subtle orange swirls along her ribs.”
Felicia
raised her left arm and pivoted to showcase the markings better.
“This
is a sign of a F’ldae in heat, where their desire to make love…” Everyone in the
crowd cheered and laughed. Felicia couldn’t help it -- she chuckled along with
them when the emcee lowered his voice to make it sound more seductive. “…overrides
everything else in their lives. They stop work, they won’t eat, they won’t
sleep until their bodies are sated. It may take many days and many partners” --
again the crowd grew loud with wicked cheer -- “but it will be quite a feature
to behold. You won’t want to miss issue eight.”
The
emcee dropped a few other facts and hints about the F’ldae, but his voice faded
as she caught sight of a pair of men talking to Benny, one of their bosses,
working at a nearby table.
What
caught her attention was that they seemed… odd. They looked human in form,
wearing casual suits and, she noticed when
they glanced around the massive room, heavy sunglasses, but something was off.
Her excitement ratcheted. Maybe they were aliens.
All
of a sudden, as if her stare had physically touched him, the larger of the pair
turned and faced her. He didn’t remove his shades, but Felicia trembled as if
he had her in his arms.
A warmth, a desire flooded her instantaneously and she swallowed. She wanted to be near this male.
