Urban Fantasy / Paranormal Erotic Romance

Janey Hyde is fighting to keep her people alive in a Manhattan ravaged by zombies. Seamus, the leader of a werewolf pack also on the island is doing the same. Will an alliance between them be the salvation of their tribes? Or is the intense attraction they feel for each other going to be their downfall? Exploring love, lust, war, and politics, ALPHA is the debut novel from writer Molly Maddox. Seamus's pack isn't ready to accept a human in their midst, and attracted to him as she is, Janey isn't sure she's ready to submit to an alpha male when it could undermine her authority with her own people. But there is more at stake than her pride and his principles, and only by working together will they find a future.

Also Available from:

Molly Maddox is a graduate student in clinical psychology at the University of North Texas. In her spare time she writes, illustrates, and works a nine-to-five. Alpha is her first novel.

ISBN 978-1-885865-73-1

The original three-story chapbook of Telepaths Don't Need Safewords was printed in 1992, but the lead story was actually originally released on the Internet via the alt.sex.bondage newsgroup.

"Telepaths Don't Need Safewords"
A tale of Arshan and Mriah, an established couple attending a glitzy, decadent BDSM costume party, and the adventures and trouble they run into there. What no one there knows is that they have a secret, a telepathic bond that allows them to read each other's thoughts and share feelings.

"Cat Scratch Fever"
As humans attempt to gain a foothold on an exotic and alien planet, their leader finds taming a cat-like female alien the key to establishing peace.

"Heart's Desire"
A lonely domme hosts a play party, where everyone takes on a fantasy role. But reality can be so much more painful, and so much sweeter.

Erotic Readers & Writers Association Review:
"The eight stories in this collection are remarkably diverse. They are unified, first, by their raw sexual energy, and second, by the intimate mingling of human with other: machine, robot, animal, vampire, or god. Xan West's lyrical introduction points out that most of these tales deal with transformations. Sex here is more than an avenue of pleasure. It is the gateway to new and different selves." ~Lisabet Sarai

Fetish Fantastic (PDF)
Fetish Fantastic (PDF)
Edited by Cecilia Tan

Top writers in today's sexual underground present tales of futuristic fiction. These lush stories (eleven in all) transform the modern sexual fetishes of BDSM, S/M, D/s, bondage, and eroticized power exchange into the templates for new worlds. From the near future of BDSM in cyberspace to a future police state where the real power lies in manipulating authority, these takes are the cutting edge in both sexual fiction and science fiction.


"The 11 tales in Tan's new anthology deal with the eroticism of power exchange--S/M--in futuristic and alternative-reality settings. The best of them fully integrate sex with SF/fantasy and provide erotic heat in satisfactory genre motifs. A futuristic Japanese-flavored culture of rigid societal roles provides the backdrop for Reina Delacroix's submissive/dominant action in "All Things Ripen in Their Own Time." Andrea Horlick's "Training A Priestess" sleeps in the same bed, but its setting is a fantasy temple where acolytes gain spiritual power in exchange for perfect obedience. "Cyber Knight," by Gary Bower, plays in a programmed universe of steamy sexual encounters. M. Christian's stylish "Guernica" is set in a future when kinky sex is a heinous crime and its practitioners risk prison and death to partake in it. Sexuality has been homogenized, licensed and regulated into blandness in "Form," by Pagan O'Leary, wherein it takes an outlaw Master to warm things up.... A cut above most such offerings."--Publishers Weekly

Great reviews of Best Fantastic Erotica:

"Tan presents the top stories from Circlet's Best Fantastic Erotica contest in an anthology that runs the gamut from sensual SF to surreal fantasy. Arinn Dembo's “Monsoon” [is] the deserving prize winner..." -- Publishers Weekly

"Overall this anthology was a great read. ... I will definitely be keeping my eyes open for more from some of these authors in the near future." -- Coffee Time Romance

"There’s an amusing irony that the forward thinking genre known as science fiction has been around long enough to have a “history” – and a wonderful realization that the 14-year-old erotic science fiction/fantasy genre spearheaded by Circlet Press is in a position to shop for the best writers in the still-developing field. After an international search for the best of the best, editor/publisher Cecilia Tan has settled on 18 examples of what writers can aspire toward. ... A swell crossword puzzle round[s] out a solid anthology." -- Darklady, in Adult Video News

"[V]ariety is the theme that paradoxically unifies the stories in Circlet’s Best Fantastic Erotica. I have a bit of a 'been there, read that' mentality when it comes to erotica, but the contest winners featured in this compilation threw out more than a few twists and kinks that this jaded reader found fresh and different. ... Tan has done an excellent job of selecting stories driven by strong characterization, intriguing premises, and worthwhile plots and then putting them together in an order that mixes things up nicely." -- Uniquely Pleasurable

"Fantastic has several meanings. In the context of Cecilia Tan's new anthology, the word refers to fiction which has elements of the supernatural or the futuristic. At the same time, “fantastic” also serves as a superlative, a synonym to “wonderful,” “exceptional” or (in today's parlance) “awesome.” I have no hesitation in using the word in its second sense to describe this collection. Cecilia Tan and Circlet have winnowed down a set of more than five hundred submissions to present eighteen of the best erotic science fiction and fantasy stories that I, at least, have read in a long time. This anthology is noteworthy both for its originality and its diversity." Lisabet Sarai at Erotica Revealed

"Best Fantastic Erotica begins with Arinn Dembo’s "Monsoon." The bleak and barren landscape where the story is set had me thinking of Frank Herbert’s Dune or Luke Skywalker’s Tatooine. Reading a little further I discovered the alien landscape was not “in a galaxy far far away,” but set a little closer to home in India. And then I was lost in the universally adored fantasy world of damned good storytelling. [The book] is the result of four years of hard work from Cecilia Tan and her editorial team at Circlet Press. She embarked on this anthology with the intention of finding the best fantastic erotica and the results speak for themselves. Having approached this book with the reluctance and reservation of a reader uncomfortable with the blending of fantasy and erotica, I have to admit, Best Fantastic Erotica deserves its title for being fantastic and the best." -- Ashley Lister at The Erotica Readers Association

"By blending a wide range of genres and sexual lifestyles, the editor has chosen a collection that is sure to appeal to any fan of erotica. ... The collection of writers for this book is amazing and each has a very distinct way of tell their tale. Cecilia Tan’s talent as an editor can be seen by the fact that each story is of the perfect length and seems to flow of its own accord." -- The Triskelion Society

"For centuries, erotic poetry, art, and literature have celebrated the beauty of human sexuality in its multiple forms. In the case of many of these erotic sub-genres, it offers insight and warning as to what is possible when that humanity is added or subtracted from the act, which, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, ethnic or religious affiliation, age, and even species, remains one of the most primal of all needs of any living being. ... Look past the words to find the inspiration, warning, irony, or messages deep within while you indulge in some interesting and provocative fantasies of your own." -- The Fix

Mate: And More Stories from the Erotic Edge of SF/Fantasy (Ereader/Palm format)
by Lauren P. Burka

Three short stories of erotic science fiction with a BDSM edge. Terry Montiero and d'Schane Grey are techies whose relationship is fueled by their chess game--a power game. Originally published in 1992 as a chapbook, the stories have been unavailable for years until this eBook revival. Fans of m/m will enjoy these characters thoroughly.

"Here's proof that science fiction and sex go together when the storytelling's hot."--Ellen Kushner, author of Swordspoint and The Fall of the Kings

"Competently written, and more to the point, hot."--Feminist Bookstore News

"Something new is happening folks: ... as het-bi-homo-pansexual in its orientation as leathersex can be. And it's happening at the unexpected by perfectly obvious junction of sadomasochism and science fiction. [These] stories are cheap to buy, easy to read, and set down by writers who know their SM as well as their SF."--The Spectator, San Francisco

Steampunk Erotica

C. Tan & J. Blackmore, Eds.

Five erotic steampunk stories. Lust & leaping 'technologie' meet in a Victorian era that never was. Jason Rubis, Thomas S. Roche, Vanessa Vaughn, Peter Tupper, and Kaysee Renee Robichaud create fascinating tales of airships, corsetry, mad scientists, and drama.

"Bravo to Circlet Press for helping to usher in steampunk erotica for us readers eager for the new and unknown….Readers, you're in for a treat with a lot of variety to satisfy many different tastes." –Obsidian Bookshelf

"This is an enjoyable group of tales that solidly fits the bill as steampunk and erotica….for those who are unfamiliar with steampunk it is a splendid jumping in point. Of course the erotica only adds to the enjoyment." –The Baryon Review

"Readers (such as this reviewer) who were raised on nineteenth-century fantasy literature will love the facsimile versions for grown-ups in this collection. All the writers seem familiar enough with the period to fake it convincingly while including more explicit sex than the authors of the time dared to describe. This e-book would be a good introduction to steampunk for readers who are unfamiliar with it." –Jean Roberta, for TCM Reviews

edited by Cecilia Tan and Gloria Y.

Four erotic short stories from some well-known erotica writers and some newcomers: Jason Rubis, Jean Roberta, Argus Marks, and ADR Forte. [Warning: Explicit erotic material. Some stories contain bondage and dubious consent.]

Praise for Like a Wisp of Steam:

"Bravo to Circlet Press for helping to usher in steampunk erotica for us readers eager for the new and unknown….Readers, you're in for a treat with a lot of variety to satisfy many different tastes." –Obsidian Bookshelf

"This is an enjoyable group of tales that solidly fits the bill as steampunk and erotica….for those who are unfamiliar with steampunk it is a splendid jumping in point. Of course the erotica only adds to the enjoyment." –The Baryon Review

"Readers (such as this reviewer) who were raised on nineteenth-century fantasy literature will love the facsimile versions for grown-ups in this collection. All the writers seem familiar enough with the period to fake it convincingly while including more explicit sex than the authors of the time dared to describe. This e-book would be a good introduction to steampunk for readers who are unfamiliar with it." –Jean Roberta, for TCM Reviews

    edited by Lauren P. Burka

    With stories by Vinnie Tesla, Anya Levin, David D. Levine, Zachary Jernigan, and Ellen Tevault.

    An anthology of erotic stories where gender is up for grabs. Thousands of people spend time on the Internet identified with a gender other than the one they were born with, for erotic gratification or to stretch their imaginations. But we asked our writers what if you got a tax break for changing your gender? What if you could choose to be no gender at all until you went on a date? What are the implications, both sexual and social, of gender possibilities beyond the choices and ideas our society currently holds.

    Mate: And More Stories from the Erotic Edge of SF/Fantasy
    by Lauren P. Burka


    Three short stories of erotic science fiction with a BDSM edge. Terry Montiero and d'Schane Grey are techies whose relationship is fueled by their chess game--a power game. Originally published in 1992 as a chapbook, the stories have been unavailable for years until this eBook revival. Fans of m/m will enjoy these characters thoroughly.

    "Here's proof that science fiction and sex go together when the storytelling's hot."--Ellen Kushner, author of Swordspoint and The Fall of the Kings

    "Competently written, and more to the point, hot."--Feminist Bookstore News

    "Something new is happening folks: ... as het-bi-homo-pansexual in its orientation as leathersex can be. And it's happening at the unexpected by perfectly obvious junction of sadomasochism and science fiction. [These] stories are cheap to buy, easy to read, and set down by writers who know their SM as well as their SF."--The Spectator, San Francisco

    Sex Noir (PDF)
    by Jamie Joy Gatto

    ISBN for ebook edition: 9781885865687

    From the sultry heat of New Orleans comes Sex Noir, a collection of erotic short stories from writer Jamie Joy Gatto. Gatto (Mind Caviar, Opehlia's Muse) mines the rich lode of erotic longing, of wanting, the sublime pain-pleasure in tragedy, setting all of her erotic tales in New Orleans. Written and originally published in print form long before Hurricane Katrina, Sex Noir is Gatto's love songs to the Crescent City, the city that can be equal parts queen of the Mississippi and back-room stripper-whore. This sensuous work on how passion and lust connect with longing and loss, Sex Noir presentes stories of transformative sex, casual encounters, desires both requited and unrequited, and the universal need to fill the emptiness inside.

    "What is Gatto's recipe for erotic fiction? Her tales combine a joyously nasty, exhibitionistic streak with soulful wisdom. The result is a tasty, appealing stew of stories whose flavor lingers long after the reader has savored it. "--Bill Brent, editor of Best Bisexual Erotica

    "Wonderful storyteller, elegant stylist, unique observer, and all-around very hot babe. This is a book that you'll not only remember, admire, and love, but it will also fuel the fires of your sex fantasies for years. "--M. Christian, author of Dirty Words, The Painted Doll, and The Bachelor Machine

    Author/Editor Bio:

    Jamie Joy Gatto is a sex activist and a widely published author. Her short stories have been included in Best Bisexual Erotica, Best SM Erotica, Ripe Fruit, Guilty Pleasures, Of the Flesh, and many more. She fled New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina and currently makes her home somewhere much drier.

      Jelwyn fondled his tentacle, waiting until all eyes were upon him. "Humans are creatures of many different drives. Some are dangerous, like their need to dominate, which is why we must crush them before they destroy us. Some are mere animal behaviors, like the need for food or shelter. But the human drive for sexual pleasure is unique across the galaxy. It is something that we believe we can manipulate to our advantage."

      ***

      Travis awoke in a brightly lit bedroom. He noticed, however, that there was no visible light source, making the space seem relaxed and comfortable rather than harsh. Diaphanous curtains draped the walls, fluttering in the air currents, making it unclear just how big the room really was. As the cobwebs of sleep disappeared he sat up on the satin- sheeted bed with a start. The last thing he had remembered was his scout ship being captured by the enemy. If this was a prison cell, he couldn't begin to imagine the palaces his captors must provide for themselves.

      His reveries were cut short by the entrance of a woman. She had long, flowing dark hair, a mysterious curve to her eyes, and rounded, smiling lips. She was also extremely underdressed. In fact she was totally naked, and Travis realized for the first time, so was he...

    Five classic fairy tales reemerge as deliciously dark erotica stories with a BDSM twist. These stories describe the many diverse faces of bondage, discipline, sadism, and masochism in sexy encounters ranging from haunting to healing, and painful to playful. You'll discover .how a witch really likes to punish naughty interlopers, why Beauty might love her beast more than the prince, how to produce handy bruises when a pea just won't do the trick--and more. Ranging from present day to "once upon a time" settings, each story offers a fresh perspective to both legend and BDSM.

    Erotica Readers and Writers Association Review:

    The five authors represented in this book all succeed in integrating a storyline of dominance and submission into the plot of familiar fairy stories. Sometimes the result is a clever romp, an old classic with a naughty twist. In a few cases, the stories cut deeper, exposing desires as twisted as the thorn bushes that overran the walls of Sleeping Beauty's castle.

    Many people know that today's idea of fairy tales is a far cry from the darker, original versions. Like a Thorn explores this underbelly of the fairy tale through the many faces of BDSM. Far from run-of-the-mill handcuffs and dungeons, this diverse palette of tales features BDSM as a vehicle for unorthodox moods, relationships, and dilemmas. Mari Ness' haunting "Cinder Feet" tells us just how high a price Cinderella might have had to pay for not making it home by midnight, yet how worthy that price might be. Next up is "The Princess and Peony" by Mercy Loomis, a charming romp between a princess and her part-time maid, full-time lover who plot to produce princess-ly bruises with a sexier method than sleeping on a pea. Kieran Dewhurst's "The Last Mistress of the Chatelaine" tells of the sweeping yet down-to-earth romance between the dread Bluebeard and his seventh wife, who uses spunk and sense to help her husband face his sins head-on with a deliciously brutal punishment. "That Wicked Witchcraft" by Sunny Moraine follows, a present-day story in which a modern witch discovers two teenage thieves in her house--and comes close to eating them for dinner after she ties them up. Finally, Shanna Germain's lyrical "Skin Deep" tells of a controversial Belle: one who didn't go to the beast as his saving grace, but to revel with him (and often over him) in the darkness of the enchanted castle and the painful price he must pay for her affections. These imaginative retelling captures the complex psychology, emotion, and harmony between pleasure and pain present in every BDSM encounter--and every tale is titillating enough to become any grown-up's first choice for a bedtime story.

    Includes the stories:
    Cinder Feet by Mari Ness
    The Princess and Peony by Mercy Loomis

    Myths about ancient Greek and Roman gods and goddesses have captivated listeners for years, oftentimes because they are so profoundly sexual. Think of all the stories that involve male gods having sex with mortal women—and of course all the love and jealousy that goes along with it. In a few cases, of course, female goddesses become smitten with male mortals; and the children that result are always of heroic proportions (perhaps in more ways than one). Recall the myth of Zeus and Io, a beautiful maiden whom he fell in love with and had to turn into a heifer in order to protect her from his jealous wife, Hera. Or the myth of Zeus and Semele, who asked to see Zeus’s true divinity (though, of course, it’s unclear which part of him this refers to…) and is instantly killed from the sight. Or maybe you can only remember one of the other of the dozen accounts of Zeus’s sexcapades. Perhaps, instead, you recall the myth of beautiful Aphrodite cheating on her crippled husband, Hephaestus, and being caught in the act and displayed naked to the other gods and goddesses. Or maybe you prefer stories about Apollo and Daphne… or Poseidon and Caeneus… and on and on and on.

    The point is, the ancient gods were incredibly sexual. For this short story anthology, writers were asked to either adapt an existing myth, with more details or in a different style, or to make up their own myths or stories. Ancient gods and goddesses had to play an essential part in their stories, but writers were given free range to explore subject matter, different eras and time periods, and whichever gods they chose, no matter how obscure.

    Like a God’s Kiss combines the epic and the erotic, the mythological and the real, to culminate in seven engaging and steamy stories. With protagonists ranging from heroic Hercules to arrogant Arachne and plots ranging from the well-known to the never-before-seen, readers will discover all new aspects about their favorite mythological characters, and will be introduced to a few new ones as well.

    From the publisher of Best Bisexual Erotica and the leader in erotic sf/fantasy, Circlet Press, comes LIKE TWIN STARS, collecting three hot stories exploring bisexuality through a fantastical lens. According to Scientific American, bisexual behavior is common in over 1500 species of animals on Earth, including humans, for whom it has greater social and personal consequences than it does for penguins, baboons, or garter snakes. Through worlds of fantasy, we can explore the erotic and social possibilities for a bisexual identity only available in flights of the imagination. Visit a tribal society where the men "dance" with each other in order to attract wives, a fantasy world where sexuality is only awakened by the visit of a succubus or incubus, and a future where the intersex characteristics in fish and other species caused by environmental changes in our day and age finally begin to present in human beings.

    All the trappings of steampunk society--corsets, airships, and 'leaping technologie'--meet the simmering undertone of sexuality so well-hidden by Victorian morality in LIKE A CORSET UNDONE, Circlet Press's third volume of erotic steampunk stories. By turns kinky and romantic, the stories in Like a Corset Undone explores all the reasons to unlace, whether to rebel, or for more intimate purposes.

    From the Introduction, by J. Blackmore: "Revolution is a knife. The same knife is used to cut the corset's strings as is used to slit the despot's throat. When people decide that what is should not be, and that their vision is what’s to come, they plan to change things. When lovers are told that they cannot moan with the lights on, that they cannot seduce whom they wish, that they cannot fuck with joy and abandon, it’s only a matter of time until they have their way. Desire, and surrender to it, is the most revolutionary act of all."
