Author: Ursula Whistler | Website
Ursula Whistler transplanted to New Orleans four years ago from central Virginia. The culture shock wasn't too terrible since she spent most of her life in northwest Florida, which everyone considers lower Alabama. She's got two degrees that have nothing to do with literature or writing, and she'll tell you more than you want to know about that if you ask her.
While pregnant with the second of her three children, she had a recurring dream that she dutifully wrote. We all know how dreams go, thin plot and lots of deus ex machina. She learned to not show that manuscript to anyone even after she edited it. She continued to write paying closer attention to plot, and she joined RWA and the Southern Louisiana Romance Writers. That has made all the difference.
Her first story, Party Favors, is an erotic romance set in present day New Orleans and tells the tale of a girl who needs just a bit of help to feel how she'd like to feel. That's the nicest way to say it without making some people blush. In February from Rebel Ink Press, you can read Basically Bad, set in the wilds of Louisiana.
You can find her on the web at UrsulaWhistler.com, where she blogs about writing, inspiration for writing, and her oversized Bichon Frise. Ursula will always say that she isn't bad, she just writes that way.

Behaving Badly
Sexy nightclub entertainer Jessica Oldham has a secret. She's prim church secretary by day, but when the lights go down she becomes a siren on New Orleans' stages. Handsome security expert, Drew Favreau ignites the flames of lust she's held at bay for so long, trapped in her boring world by commitment. She feels free in Drew's arms, so free she entertains the idea of letting the naughty side of her come out to play until she can find a way to weave the dream into reality.
Drew has a problem--he's not into security, he's an investigator working undercover--and sexy siren Jessica is on his list of embezzlement suspects. Jessica is all sweet and innocence at her job, but when she leaves that world she becomes bold and wanton in his arms, and he wants nothing more than to forget the job at hand. Yet there's a crook to catch, and unfortunately, Jessica's name isn't so easy to clear.
Will Drew be able to resist the Jessica's lure and solve the crime? Or will she convince him she's innocent...except while Behaving Badly?
Basically Bad
Socialite Jackie spends her evenings as Delilah, a sex toy saleswoman, but her boyfriend Vince has grown tired of her reliance on battery-powered toys to have an orgasm. Under the ruse of a special weekend away, he lures her to his primitive fish camp on Lake Maurepas, Louisiana where he plans to delight her without vibrators. To Jackie, the camp is another world compared to her comfortable Uptown New Orleans home, and she's afraid that she'll lose this man due to her toy use like she lost her ex-husband. She doesn't know if she can do without the toys or without the man.
