For months Beau has frequented the Gemstone Burlesque Club for one reason–– the gorgeous, mysterious performer known as Amethyst.
Amethyst has noticed that Beau is drawn to her so her performances have begun to have a sole purpose–– lighting him on fire with want and desire.
After months of playing cat and mouse, both decide to stop the charades and play together...
Will the reality of their passions be as explosive as the tension in the air when Amethyst is on stage? What will happen when Beau is more than just an observer in the audience?
***Gemstone Burlesque is a thirteen part, erotic romance serial. There will be thirteen different short stories. All are standalones. All stories will be between 7500-9500 words. THIS IS NOT EROTICA.

48 pages, Kindle Edition

Amethyst has had her eye on the drop dead gorgeous man occupying table #3. She doesn't know his name but he's there for every performance. Is this the night? Is this the night where they take the next stop and she invites him back-stage? Taking the plunge, she gives a slight nod as she finishes her song. What happens next is surprising... to them both.

I loved this quick romance! Note: this is not erotica or even erotic romance. This is a quick contemporary romance about two people drawn together by sizzling chemistry. I loved Amethyst as a character and rooted for her to give into her desires.

Wow

When you think about a book, you want to feel what the characters are feeling and Skye does that for me. For a short story it was really hot. Can't wait for the next one.

Hot And Steamy

Amethyst learns that a job isn't everything. You've got to go for happiness too. Oddly, it's her boss who taught her this. A hot & steamy quick read!

Quickie

A very quick read. It’s a straight to the point short story. It’s fast paced, but a good read and good story.

Being a fan of burlesque and romance books I jumped at the chance to read this book. Whilst it is a quick read, it still has a beginning a middle and an end that will leave you wanting more.

Noticing that she has a rather attractive admirer that sits at the same table every night just to see her perform. Sexual desire takes over and the game of cat and mouse finally comes to an end as Amethyst decides to meet her sexy stranger. Amethyst is feisty but struggles with what her head and heart want, especially after her mysterious spectator gives her some surprising information.

A great short read and I'm really looking forward to reading the other girls stories.

What do you say about a book so hot and sensual that you almost internally combusted?!! While it's a short book, it certainly isn't lacking. I myself have always wondered what it'd be like to have that one adoring fan who you simply know is meant to be yours... Have no fear... This book is guaranteed to ignite your passion and light your flame of lust! Amethyst is certainly someone is love to be in my other life... And her man.. Beau hits all the spots needed for a "quickie" Ms. Turner is a master of literary lust. Bring on the next Gemstone Diva!

Wow

Once again you surprise me on how you can put so much heat into so little amount of words. I'm loving your monthly standalone series. With your first standalone series when I hit December I was like damn I want more. I'm so glade you did another dear diary series. I know it's only January but I can't wait wait you have in store for April.

Another great one from Skye. A good, quick read with enough action and heart to satisfy anyone. I love that it is all set in the same place and each story "tells" you who the next one will be about. If you had all the girls in each story it would get too crowded.

Love this first short about the Gemstone Burlesque Club. Skye paints a sensual picture of seduction and desire. You can feel the chemistry and heat. Just when you are drawn into the story...it ends. It's just a taste...leaving you wanting more. Bring on the next story.
