I’m going to try out a new cover for Stripped Defenseless. I thought it would be fun to switch it out every so often. I think this one matches my heroine, plus the way the hero is watching her is super sexy. Overall the image matches the storyline.
You can buy SD on Amazon Kindle. http://www.amazon.com/Stripped-Defenseless-ebook/dp/B005C1AMWI/ Still only $2.99. Also coming soon to BarnesandNoble.com!
I’m re-releasing my award-winning erotic romantic suspense FATAL EXPOSURE, but I’m giving it a new look. A new title. And a NEW PRICE!! But the same sexy story remains.
The new title is STRIPPED DEFENSELESS (Thanks to author Helen Hardt for the idea!!). It works well with the story line, and it’s sexy.
STRIPPED DEFENSELESS is an erotic romantic suspense, and it will be available in eBook form from Amazon in 1-2 days. I’ll post the link when I find out what it is. I’m working on making it available from other online eBook retailers such as Barnes & Noble, Diesel, Sony, etc. So be on the lookout in the next month or so. [Update: Link to purchase for your Kindle here: Stripped Defenseless]
Here’s the new blurb:
On the run from an abusive ex-boyfriend, Ava Lureau doesn’t expect to trust anyone, let alone have a one night stand with a dangerously gorgeous stranger. But leaving her cold, lonely bed behind and jumping into Kade’s strong arms is something she can’t resist. If only for a night.
Kade Gavin’s job is simple—capture his target and deliver her to the man who hired him. Nothing but a paycheck matters in Kade’s bleak existence…until the enticing stripper with soft curves and a puzzling persona climbs into his bed—and under his skin.
When one night turns into a deadly adventure, snowbound in an isolated cabin, Ava must determine if her tempting captor is her savior…or the man who’ll leave her stripped defenseless.
Fatal Exposure, my erotic romantic suspense, is a finalist in the Colorado Romance Writer’s Award of Excellence contest.

This is what the reviewer said:
“Is it wrong, as a reviewer, to discuss how turned on you became while reading a story? Most of the time, I try to discuss the fundamentals of the work: the writing, the character development, the premise, and the intrigue/suspense/mystery. And let me assure you, all of those necessary elements are present here. You’ll soar through this one and your heart will go through the wringer along the way. But the truth is, when I read the last word on that final page of Fatal Exposure, my first thought was, “Damn, now that was hot!”
Lia Slater has written a story that is fantastic, with all the sultry twists and turns that keep readers on the edge of our seat. A girl on the run from an abusive lover falls for the P.I. hired to find her and bring her back. She’s someone that needs to be loved and protected, and he’s a man that doesn’t want to feel anything for his target and/or become emotionally attached. It goes without saying that they’ll find what they lack in one another–the perpetual yin and yang. That alone is enough to garner interest and snare attention, and the conflict it creates is gut wrenching. But the moment Ava and Kade meet the sexual tension and chemistry between them oozes off the page.
This ain’t your Momma’s romance. The sex is raw, gritty, and so hot you’ll be forced to take a nice cold shower–or if you’re lucky, commandeer your partner–to take the edge off! In fact, Kade is one of the most memorable heroes I’ve had the pleasure to meet in a very long time. After I was done, I wondered where I might find a P.I. of my own.” Fern, reviewer
Thank you!

Night Owl Romance Reviewer Top Pick! Melinda, the reviewer, gave it 5/5 hearts.
“This is a first I have read from Lia Slater and won’t be the last. This author is talented as her words come to life and the story line so enjoyable. I loved Ava for though her life is in danger this is a woman who will not just sit down and hide. Kade is all the man she needs for with him she feels something she has never felt before…Love. These two together are explosive and I congratulate Lia for a great story to read. Loved it.”
