We know that everyone is craving for Mr. Ethan Blackstone as much as we do. And since Eyes Wide Open will not be available until May 14th 2013, the ever generous Raine Miller has posted 4 teasers from the book and we thought of putting it all together here for your viewing pleasure.

Just a few reminders before indulging yourselves into these smexy addicting teasers:

  1. Keep your kleenex handy because DROOLING IS NOT OPTION. Its given.
  2. You might need a cold shower after Teaser #4.
  3. There's a lot of "panty melting moments" so i'd rather you not wear any panties at all!
  4. If you have fallen hard with Ethan, well this time, prepare to fall harder...hardest i guess?

You've been warned!


Teaser #1

I don’t know what compelled me to open my eyes. Probably the breathing on my face smelling faintly of jam, but regardless, I now understand why horror movies with children in them are without a doubt, the most terrifying films of all. There is nothing quite like a silent child staring at you while you’re sleeping, or even better, when you wake up.

Some questions come to mind pretty fuckin’ quick. Like how long have you been standing there watching over me like one of the ill-fated Grady sisters from The Shining ?

Scared the ever-living shit out of me for about two seconds.

And then she smiled.

“Uncle Ethan is awake!” she yelled at the top of her lungs as she ran to the door, flinging it wide open on the hinges.

Ethan--Eyes Wide Open



Teaser #2

Despite the whole mess tonight, he had me in his arms and underneath him, his commanding strength taking charge in the way he’d done with me from the beginning.

Holding me safe.

That night on the street where he’d coaxed me into his car and then later with the phone calls demanding I acknowledge him, were just the start of my understanding of Ethan Blackstone. There was so much more to the man than I ever imagined back then.

I wasn't going anywhere. I was in love with him.

“I want my cock in you all night long,” he rasped, his blue eyes flashing against the moonlight as he moved.

Brynne, Eyes Wide Open~


Teaser #3

“Th—thank you for coming to f—f—find me,” she chattered, her lips looking more blue than anything. She was chilled and shivering so I took off my shirt and put it on over hers hoping the extra layer would warm her a little.

She was compliant, allowing me to take charge and that was a massive relief. Taking care of her was something I could do. I didn’t need much, just the assurance she wanted my help. Wanted me.
“I’ll always find you.” I picked her up and started walking down the long drive of Stonewell Court to where I’d parked outside of the gate. She closed her eyes and put her palm on my chest.

Right over my heart.

It always amazed me at how easy it was to carry her. I knew why. It was because she carried my heart with her wherever she went. My heart was in her hands, and carrying her was some form of self-preservation maybe. Holding her, holding me up.

I couldn’t explain it, but I understood it. Made perfect sense to me.

I said it again. “I’ll always find you, Brynne.”

Ethan - Eyes Wide Open


Teaser #4

I stopped dead in my tracks when I spotted her stretched out on the sofa, her e-reader set on her stomach, iPod wired up with music, and just took her in. Her long legs tangled in a throw blanket, an arm stretched over her head, hair spread out beneath her.

Only the light from the city shining in through the bay windows lit the room but it was plenty for me to see her with. She had on a pair of my black silk boxers and a little green top that showed enough of her soft curves to make me hard. It didn’t take much to bring me to life regardless. The more we were forced to spend time apart, the worse I got with irrational need. I wanted her. All the time. Want. Need. Desire. I was losing my mind and I’m pretty sure Brynne knew it. She worried about me and that knowledge just made me love her all the more. I finally had someone who cared for me because of me, not how I looked or how much brass I happened to have.

Her eyes opened and she found me.

I stayed planted at least seven feet from where she was and kicked off my shoes. She sat up on the couch and stretched, arching her back and chest toward me in invitation.

We still hadn’t spoken a word to each other but so much had already been communicated. We were going to go at it like beasts and it would be excruciatingly good. Like always. So...having a mutual strip show, huh?

Sounds goddamn perfect to me.

Me first. I had more clothes to get rid of than she did. I think I was smiling. If it wasn’t showing on the outside, I had a fucking clown grin going on the inside.
I worked the buttons on my shirt slow, watching her watch me as her eyes grew smoky. I shrugged it off my shoulders and let it drop to the floor. I kicked it away with my foot and blinked at her.

Your turn, my beauty.

She did a move that I dearly love, and one she does so well it ought to be illegal. She raised her arms and crossed palms behind her neck and dragged them upward through her hair, flexing her neck in a stretch before bringing her hands back down to the bottom of her skimpy green undershirt. She peeked up at me and paused.

I growled low in my throat. Purely instinctual and utterly impossible to hold in. I needed to devour her right now.

Slowly she pulled the green scrap upward, revealing the satin skin of her stomach, a slight delay over the mounds of her breasts, and then a little bounce as they fell free, and the top went on a little fling through the air. She straightened her arms and set her palms down on the couch.

I took a step closer as I whipped my belt out of the loops and dropped it to the floor with a clank. My tongue rolled over my lips as I imagined how her perfect tits would taste once I got to them. So fucking sweet.

I unbuttoned and unzipped and let my trousers fall off my hips. They got the same kick across the hardwood as my shirt had received.

Brynne stuck two fingers in her mouth and pulled them out slowly, circling one of her nipples, now budded up tight and dark pink.

Sweet Christ, I will surely die tonight.

When we hit our 1000 likers last Feb 6, my partner and I decided to run an event as our way of thanking all our followers who have continuously supported us throughout this journey. We decided to run a giveaway that will encourage our followers to express their love and gratitude to 3 of our favorite authors, one of them is Raine Miller.

The winning post that we have chosen for Raine is from Charissa Nelson. Apart from the paperback copy of The Undoing of a Libertine and some swags, we have given Charissa the opportunity to ask questions to Raine. Let's check out her interview!





Self-serving libertine Jeremy Greymont likes his sex on the rough side and his women anonymous. Perfectly content milling along through life on an existence of courtesans and fine Scotch whisky, Jeremy has a naughty past and his own demons to contend with, but he’s run out of time with his grandfather regardless. Jeremy needs an heir—posthaste. The lovely Georgina seems like the perfect answer to his predicament and intrigues him like no woman ever before. Jeremy can’t wait to get started on the baby-making and is even willing to tone down his preference for the wild romps he’s always enjoyed. There’s always time to teach her about that later, right?


But Georgina's demons trump Jeremy's in so many ways. A brutal assault has left her damaged and vowing she can be wife to no man—not even Jeremy Greymont. What is a libertine to do?



Raine has done it again! His Perfect Passion was an amazing read, and The Undoing of a Libertine is everything I hoped for and more. Jeremy is all that you could want in a man. Romantic, passionate, naughty *grins*. And Georgina is a wonderfully written character. This book has the perfect amount of lust, romance, and steam along with a story that pulls you in from the beginning! Love it, Raine! Can't wait for the next one.


About Charissa Nelson:

1. We all know the gorgeous David Gandy was your muse for Ethan. Did you have any men in mind when you were writing if Jeremy and Darius? 

Yes I did. For Darius my muse is a Spanish model named Oriol Elcacho. I saw his picture in an ad one day and knew he was the one. For Jeremy I needed a rougher looking kind of guy. He is not considered typically air is a sandy brown. Someone like a Josh Holloway would work for handsome and has a less refined look, also his Jeremy.

2. Do you have any ideas for future novels/series planned out after The Blackstone series is complete? 

Yes. After I write Blackstone #4 I'll be writing The Rothvale Legacy. This series is about Ivan and Gabrielle from Blackstone Affair.

3. Do you have any habits or quirks that help to awake your creative side while writing? A favorite snack? Or certain songs? 

I like to take walks in the hills behind my house. I think while I'm out and it really helps me to work through sticky plots or trouble areas for me in the books. Sometimes the perfect idea just comes and I have to repeat it in my head until I get back home. I have to rush up to my computer and write it down STAT. I do have a sunflower seed habit which is bad for me. I try to drink herbal tea as much as possible.

4. What is your favorite book or book series? 

Your favorite fictional book character? Lover Unbound by JR Ward. Vishous from Black Dagger Brotherhood.

5. When did you first know that you wanted to become an writer? 

Four years ago I just started writing my first story. I don't know why I did it, but there you go. I quickly got addicted to writing. It started with one scene. Then moved onto backstory. Then my goal was to just finish a single book. Then my goal changed to trying to get that book published. In the meantime I had started writing my 2nd story. The 2nd story (Darius & Marianne) was the first work to get a publishing contract.

6. Any advice for aspiring authors? 

It sounds dumb but you need to write. A person can talk about writing, take classes on writing, be in writing groups, critique groups, talk to other writers, but in the end, the only thing that will get you there is your ass in the chair writing your own stuff. It's something you need to do daily. Every single day.

7. Do you see any famous actresses, models, etc. as your leading ladies in your novels? 

A very young Andie MacDowell would be the perfect Marianne in my head. Georgina could be played perfectly by Clemence Poesy. And Brynne? Someone like Sarah Ann Macklin.

8. What events/book signings do you plan on attending in 2013? 

I'll be in Boston in March. RT Convention in May in Kansas City. Vegas in August and again in October. Richmond, Virginia in December.

9. If you had to pick one, what would be your favorite literary quote of all time? 

"I almost wish we were butterflies and lived but three summer days. Three such days with you, I could fill with more delight than fifty common years could ever contain." John Keats. 1819 in a letter to Fanny Brawne. They were engaged but he died at 25 years old from Tuberculosis, and sadly before they could marry.

January 17, 2:02 am.

I was about to go to bed when suddenly my phone chirped. When I opened it up, I saw a message that says...



followed by another one...



I guess you see where I'm coming from. To be noticed by the "Raine Miller" herself is really a God damn big thing for us. We thank Raine for trusting us and for giving us the pleasure of doing it.

So without further adieu, here's the Blackstone Affair Series Book Trailer. Hope you all like it!

The passion between them was explosive, but the secrets they hid from each other are dark and chilling and are powerful enough to destroy their shot at a life together. With political threats now directed at Brynne, Ethan is running out of time and he'll need to gather all his strength and agility to protect her from the dangers that could take her away from him forever. Will Ethan be able to save Brynne from a past that keeps her locked in fear? Will he ever feel the warmth of her touch, the solidity of her trust again? This is a love-struck man who is willing to do whatever it takes to possess the heart of the woman he loves. He'll go to any lengths to protect her. He'll go all in.

Here is the fiery story of what happens when two people surrender to a love so great it can heal the scars of the past and give way to a life of pure, rapturous ecstasy.

About the author:

Raine Miller has been reading romance novels since she picked up that first Barbara Cartland book at the tender age of thirteen. And it's a safe bet she'll never stop, because now she writes them too! Granted Raine's stories are edgy enough to turn Ms. Cartland in her grave, but to her way of thinking, a hot, sexy hero never goes out of fashion. A part-time teacher and writer of sexy romance stories every other chance she gets pretty much fills her days. She has a handsome prince of a husband, and two brilliant sons to pull her back into the real world if the writing takes her too far away. Her sons know she likes to write stories, but gratefully have never asked to read any, thank God! Raine loves to hear from readers and to chat about the characters in her books.
