Author Bio:
Kristie and her husband have lived all over the United States and many foreign countries while following his career. While living in Japan in 1997, she found it very difficult to find books to read that were written in English. This situation was intolerable as she was an avid reader and had been known to resort to reading cereal boxes if nothing else was available. Have you ever tried to read a cereal box written in Japanese? It was not a pretty picture. Ms. Maguire began writing her own books just to have something to read. She discovered a new passion in writing.
Although Kristie is originally from the South and will always remain Southern at heart, she and her husband live in Nevada. During her expatriate years she lived in St. Croix, Aruba, Thailand, Japan and three times in Saudi Arabia as well as visiting many other countries.

It's great when someone you don't know recommends your books!

It feels great when anyone recommends your books to others but it feels even better when it's someone you DON"T KNOW.

Today I was doing a Google search on my name to see what's out there about me. I do that from time to time just out of curiousity's sake. Yeah, I know what they say, "Curiousity killed the cat!" But as an author it is good to do this ever so often. You never know what you are going to run across out there on the internet.

Anyway today I found an interesting thing about me while doing the Google search. It was from something called Yahoo Answers. I didn't even know there was such a thing as Yahoo Answers. Now that I know, maybe I'll ask Yahoo something and see if they can answer. (laughing)

Someone had posted asking if anyone could recommend Good Adult Romance Books. I guess people answered although I couldn't see the answers. This question was marked as resolved. Evidently the asker posted a list of books they wanted to get based upon the answers received. My novel, Affairs of the Heart, was included in the list! Yeah!!

Happy Valentine's Day!




Young love is a flame; very pretty, often very hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. The love of the older and disciplined heart is as coals, deep-burning, unquenchable.

-Henry Ward Beecher



The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched. They must be felt with the heart.
-Helen Keller



Life has taught us that love does not consist in gazing at each other but in looking outward in the same direction.
-Antoine de Saint-Exupery



Love makes your soul crawl out from its hiding place.
-Zora Neale Hurston

Adam and Eve versus Barnes & Noble

I have run across many strange things in my promotional efforts with my books but I think the strangest I have come across was when I was in St. Augustine, Florida recently.

I saw a Barnes & Noble store while touring St. Augustine so I dropped in to see if my books were on the shelves there. I like to do this in my travels across the United States. The little guy behind the Customer Service counter looked up Kristie Leigh Maguire in his computer and found my titles, Affairs of the Heart and From the Far Side of the Sun. Alas, neither of the titles were in stock at this particular B&N store. I asked to speak to the manager to see if she would order a couple of copies of each title to stock in the store. The manager readily agreed to order 2 copies of each title to see how it would go over there. I thanked her and left some of my promotional material with her to give to the customers.

I have always believed in promoting "outside the box" so when I saw an "adult store" with the name of Adam and Eve, I thought how perfect is this for carrying my novel, Affairs of the Heart, which is an adult sensual or erotic romance. I went into the store with my book in hand and asked to speak to the manager. I told her about my book and asked her if she would buy a few copies to carry in the store. The first thing she asked me was if my book was available at the Barnes & Noble store in St. Augustine. I proudly told her that yes, the manager had just ordered a couple of copies for stocking. She told me that in that case, no she couldn't buy my book for the Adam and Eve store. I asked why. She replied that the customers would just go buy it from B&N instead of buying it there. This made no sense to me but that is what she said. When I pressed her further, she said she would take it up with her boss but that was the policy and she doubted he would change it for my book. I left my promotional material and my card with her and asked her to call me if her boss changed his mind. I received no call so I can only assume that he didn't.

I browsed around the store for a bit, looking at movie titles and other things...LOTS of OTHER THINGS. When I left the store and started to my vehicle, there was a guy sitting in his truck which was parked by my vehicle. He called me over. I remembered seeing him in the store so I went over, with my book in my hand. He asked me if I had a book that I was selling. I replied that yes I did and that I was the author. He asked to look at it. After looking at the cover and flipping the book over to look at the back, he said he wanted to buy it and asked how much it was. I told him $24.95. He asked would I take a credit card and I said no. He took out his wallet and offered me all the money he had left in it, which was considerably less than the retail price of the book. I put on my "thinking outside of the box hat" and told him that I would sell him the book, and autograph it, for the money he had left in his wallet if he would spread the word about the book and the fact that it could be purchased at the local Barnes & Noble store. He agreed and we made the transaction with both of us coming away happy.

There is more than one way to skin a cat!

Jay Leno Isn't The Only One Writing His Own Material.

Has the writer's strike left you with nothing to watch?

I don't know about you but I'm getting tired of watching reruns on TV because, due to the writer's strike, the programs have run out of new material. Even the late night shows, such as Jay Leno and David Letterman, suck. I was watching Jay Leno the other night. His guest was Howard Stern, the shock jock. Oh I got such a thrill out of watching this little segment. NOT!

I am here to rescue you from the boredom. I am a writer and I am NOT on strike. Have a look at this video book trailer for my erotic romance, Affairs of the Heart. Heck, if you really want something to do, then ORDER THE BOOK and READ. Yes, I said read. You know, that old fashioned thing we all use to do before we got hooked on TV and movies. I'll even help you out financially. Amazon.com is knocking 24% off the retail price of the novel. I'll even supply you with the direct order link where you can PURCHASE the book. ORDER HERE.

Oh, by the way, the video is free.

An Excerpt from Desert Heat

The kiss turned passionate as his tongue tangled with hers. His hips ground against her. She moaned and her knees went weak as she felt his erection pressing against her. She could feel how hard he was. She reached down, stroking him through his slacks. He slipped his leg between hers and she rode it as she stroked him. She took his hand, put it on her aching breast and he pinched her nipple through her bra and dress. She was wet and aching for him. They both were trembling as they strained to get closer to each other through the barrier of their clothes. They were on fire with desire.

“Marcie, we’ve got to stop,” Jim groaned in agony as she stood trembling in his arms. “What if somebody knocks on the door? If anybody walks by outside, they can see us through the windows.”

“Oh God, Jim! I want you so bad I hurt!”

“I know, baby, I know. I do, too,” he whispered. “I didn’t mean for this to happen when I called you in here. I can’t believe things got out of hand so fast.”

“It’s like putting a match to one of the creosote bushes out in the desert,” she whispered back. “Just a little spark and suddenly there’s a raging inferno.”

He hugged her tight for a moment longer, and then stepped back. He grinned at her. “Your face is all flushed, sweetheart, and you look like you have just been very thoroughly kissed.”

“I have just been thoroughly kissed, Jim,” she smiled back at him. “I can’t go back to my office looking like this and I don’t think you want anyone seeing you like this, either,” she laughed as she ran her hand over the telltale bulge in his pants.

He looked down at himself and laughed. “You’re right. One look at us now and the game is up.”

Excerpt from Cabin Fever

She lay back in the fragrant bubbles. Her nerve endings tingled as she ran her hand lightly over her body. She caressed her breasts, gently pinching the nipples. They peaked into hard little buds. She ran her fingertips teasingly down her belly, touching herself between her legs.

Oh, that feels good!

She gently massaged that sensitive little nub of flesh. She closed her eyes, fantasizing that it was Jim’s hand rubbing her moist hot center.

Oh yes, my love, yes! That feels wonderful!

Soft lips kissed her and she moaned.

Yes, yes, kiss me, Jim. It’s been so long, baby!

Jim’s hand continued to caress her sensitive little nub as he kissed her, his tongue tangling with hers.

Suddenly hot lips claimed her nipple, sucking gently. Is that you, Steve? Oh, yes, I’ve missed this so much!

Jim nibbled her ear, blowing into it softly as he slid his finger into her, in and out, in and out.
Yes, like that, honey! Oh please don’t stop, I’m almost there!

Her climax was building. She was right on the edge. Steve’s mouth left her breast. She felt his tongue on her sensitive little nub as Jim’s finger continued sliding in and out. Steve flicked her hard little nub with his hot tongue, pushing her over the edge of the cliff.

She gasped as she fell into the dark void below. Her body trembled as her climax flowed over her with tiny little ripples.

She softly floated back down to reality, lying still and relaxed in the hot strawberry scented water.
