The DARK LORD knows what you want!

Doesn’t that sound like one hot and sexy notion? A being who can read your darkest desires and make them come true? Well, in S.L. Carpenter’s novel Dark Lord - Origins, the hero does exactly that! And wowee girls, he can make you scream in a whole bunch of ways you probably never imagined!!! He sure hits the right spot with the women whose lives he touches in this fascinating Exotika novel from Ellora’s Cave. And to think it’s written by a man!!! Yep, S.L. Carpenter is one of the few men writing erotic romances for Ellora’s Cave and believe me, he can spin a sizzling tale that’ll knock your socks off, along with other bits of clothing!


If you’ve missed this treat, here’s a brief blurb - do yourself a favor and heat up your night with this story. You won’t be disappointed.

Dark Lord - Origins

Just the whisper of his name brings shivers of desire to the women who have met him. The Dark Lord. A mysterious being who fulfills their deepest passions, their most sensual and erotic dreams.
Journalist Alyson Mendez has heard about him and stolen something—his medallion. She wants a story, a front-page scoop on this man of many magical talents. What she gets is much more than an interview.
Defying her preconceived notions of space and time, the Dark Lord shows her times and places — and lovers. It's a journey both exquisite and painful, a voyage into a world of desires Alyson could never have imagined. And a glimpse into the past, present and future of the Dark Lord — his Origins.

See? I told you it was hot hot hot!!! Now I’m one very lucky Hussy, because I get to write erotic romances with this talented man …so when it came time to see if he’d come over and talk to us, I elbowed all the other Hussies out of the way, grabbed him and threw some questions at him. Like the great sport and nice guy he is, Scott Carpenter answered them with his usual charm and humor!

Scott, if you woke up one morning and found you were a woman all of a sudden, do you think you’d make a good Hussy?

After doing a thorough examination of all parts of my new anatomy, finding if there really is a place on a woman’s body that would make her orgasm instantly, I’d be a great HUSSY.
I’d have all kinds of attitude, be frisky, a tease, and a hell of a ride in bed. Is that the right kind of hussy?

Yep. You just qualified top of the class - that must’ve been too easy. LOL So here’s a challenge for you - if you had to describe a woman to a blind man who’d never seen one, how would you go about it?

I’d find out if he could read Braille, then talk to my buddy Marcus to see if he could bring one of his photo models over for the blind man to read by touch. If I couldn’t do that, then I’d have to describe how I see women.
Women are God’s creation of temptation. From the curvature of their body, to the scent of their hair, the softness of their skin - everything that is seen as beauty comes from the female form. No two are exactly the same and all have features that attract men differently. Their hair is different lengths and has a different feel to it. Their breasts are supple or buxom, but they all feel soft to the touch. A woman’s lips are moist and kissing them can make your knees buckle, their hips are for holding as you ... Um, I am getting distracted.
I see women as works of art. Women breathe sensuality. They show their emotions, they show their moods. But what’s inside is the essence of the female.
I haven’t even started talking about a woman’s taste. If I get started I won’t stop. You know how I am about this.

I do indeed. In fact I think we covered this in more than a few chapters of the five books we’ve co-authored so far. And you know how I love to hear it!!!(grin) But besides writing with me, there are quite a few solo Carpenter volumes out there. For example, you’ve written three books in the “Lust” series (Dark Lust, Strange Lust 1 and 2), collections of short sizzling stories that so many readers love. I understand there’s another in the pipeline coming to delight us…can you tell us about it?

NAKED LUST. I have been writing these short stories since the beginning. I figure sometimes a reader wants a quick little laugh or tease between running around the house, kids, late night reading or work. Something to make them smile and squirm. That’s what the LUST series is. Something to take your mind away and give it a little ride.



The newest one is a little different than the older ones because the stories are a bit longer. The centerpiece is about a woman with multiple partners. But as usual I have some outrageous sex in some stories, some to make you scratch your head and say, “huh?” and even one that makes you think “I know he didn’t just say that.”
The LUST books are basically me. A little off center but wanting to be fun and playful.



Lemme tell ya, folks, Scott’s mind works in strange and twisted ways that translate into incredibly hot and hilarious novels!!! He really is fun and playful!! No kidding - that’s him to a T! In addition to his upcoming releases, he has stories in four Pocket book print anthologies that you’ll find listed on his website, www.slcarpenter.net - I recommend you drop by and check ‘em out, along with all the other wonderful stuff he has there to tickle your inner Hussy! Of course, you can find a complete list of his books at Ellora’s Cave too.

On your behalf, I’m giving him a big Hussy hug along with our thanks for sharing some of his precious free time with us! Keep those wonderful stories coming, Scott. You have a lot of readers out there just aching to read more. I’m sorry we couldn’t arrange to get the Hussies naked with you, but maybe soon…
