The Final Jeopardy Installment

Phew! Not sure I'll be doing that again in a hurry. Releasing three books in three months was a tall order, and has left me a tad drained. Now the Welsh caravan is up and running, I'm gonna be taking a wee break.
Meanwhile, you have three days to get this one (and all the others) at the bargain price of 99c/99p. They will go up to full price on 2nd June.

Here's the blurb:
   Imagine if Sex in the City and Big Bang Theory spawned a lovechild back in 80s England, brought up by those Desperate Housewives. Doesn't bear thinking about, really. Seven whacky shorts stuffed full of steamy heat, nutty adventure and a helping of geeky chic.
   Mandy, Lucy and Karen take a turn at the mic, as do Mark, Ben and Rick. But Lexie is the star turn, piling on the pressure as she leads her men on a merry dance through bedrooms, motel rooms and boardrooms in her pursuit of pleasure - and the right man to give it to her.

Click on the links below to check them out - the thread running through the three volumes means they are better read in order for the best reader experience.

Getting Sassy with Classy Cassie

Sorry, these by-lines just get worse.
But it that kind of silliness appeals, you're in for a treat.
For less than a pound/dollar/euro, you can indulge in a unique bit of "mucky British smut." Five short stories full of cheeky sauciness, featuring the decidedly dodgy adventures of Sexy Lexie and a couple of her friends: Picky Vicky and Sassy Cassie.
Click to get your copy of More Jeopardy, but don't say I didn't warn you.

Don't take my word for it - here's what some of my lovely beta-readers are saying:

Dramatic, swoon-worthy romance – KC, Amazon Reader

Kent is my all-time favorite fictional boyfriend! Lord is he hot and sweet and romantic! And did I say hot? What happened with Cassie was so, so hot to me, when she gave him permission *swoon* that was some amazing reading! Mark and Lexie's story is a great addition to what happened in Triple Jeopardy, each of these stories add just a little more to Lexie's dramatic yet realistic universe.

Got my blood flowing!
– KB, Amazon Reader

I really like this series - I dream of Lexie!! I enjoyed meeting new characters and really felt bad for Vicky, although I saw it coming. The Domination part got my blood flowing, but I was happy to see that the action stopped when Cassie said NO. I like happy endings. My life is so busy that it is nice to read a short story and see the happy ending fairly quickly.

Dreaming, scheming & dodgy steaming – FJ, Amazon Reader

Sexy Lexie is back along with old & new friends. It conjured a song title from one of our favorite artists: “You can Look (But you can't touch)" - Springsteen. At least not without permission!

Truly a fantastic read! – Amazon Reader

Great premise: intriguing women in troublesome situations I love this author, she writes with sass and a fantastic British voice. I don't always enjoy short stories, I usually like my books to be more meaty, but the blurb sold me. I'm glad it did!

And here's some kudos from the professionals:

Unique, cute and sexyCarter Editing Services

Sexy Lexie is back and these stories are just as great as the first. Ms. Green is on a roll when it comes to creating sexy, hot tension between characters. And bonus! This time we get some romance and love stories with it. I LOVE the personality of Ms Green’s writing. Giving life to everything in the universe is a unique ability that not everyone can pull off and she does it perfectly.

Penetratingly Absorbing – Book Viral

Green has the uncanny ability to make readers care for her characters, delivering plots and narratives that vibrate with an impending sense of danger. The overarching theme makes her prose quite dark, but she always manages to inject a timely element of humour. There’s a powerful element of social commentary that’s expressed not in words, but in emotions that will leave many of her readers deep in thought.

Hanky Panky with Sexy Lexie

A couple more days left @ the bargain 99c/99p, then it's up to full price.
Click link for your copy of
Triple Jeopardy.
Thought I'd share the saucy advert I created for facebook. "Utter filth! I loved it darling." - as Craig would say.

Here's the short blurb:

A tight red skirt. A smutty remark. A nice girl’s undoing
Lexie thought engineers were pretty chaste - they certainly never chased her. Until Stark’s sleazy attention well and truly pressed her buttons.
Three dark tales featuring girls in trouble in the late 80’s. Not strictly romance, they flirt around the edges of suspense and saucy fantasy. These compelling teasers are hot and whimsical with addictive twists.

P.S. Just in case you think you've already read Triple Jeopardy by Ro Green, these are three totally different stories, as you can tell from the descriptions:

Lexie's Awakening: Lexie's breakup with her boyfriend puts her back on the market; a natural target for her fellow engineers, who'd previously treated her like cut glass. The office Christmas party dress code says wear red, but her tight skirt attracts a powerful response from an unexpected source, leading to a whole new adventure.

No Gentleman: Ten tipsy executives. One naïve student. A foregone conclusion?
When Sandy took the waitressing job in an isolated country mansion, she never imagined the wealthy businessmen wanted more than serving food and drink. Until she saw the uniform.

The Dark Knights: A lonely road. A flat tyre. A girl's worst nightmare
Lexie's exploration of her secret desires leads to unexpected adventures as she seeks to understand and fulfil her dark yearnings.

Warning: Although generally lighthearted, these steamy, office-based shorts with a twist in the tail are not for the faint of heart. Or under-18s. Or people who don't like their heroines in too much trouble.

***For mature audiences only***

Kudos, already?

I'm just showing off now. My fabulous street team have been sending in some of their thoughts about the new improved Triple Jeopardy. Not to be confused with an earlier book of the same name, this is three brand new saucy short stories, featuring a leonine (that's just the hair) ingénue, Lexie, who seems to fall into more than her fair share of saucy adventures. Here's some wonderful comments:

Kudos for Triple Jeopardy by Ro Green

Whimsical, hot stories with addictive twists
Short stories are a hard art form, and I admire it very much when someone does it masterfully; it is like hearing a beautiful piece of music played. Each of these short stories was an easy read; beautifully written, on the literary side, hitting every note just right. I love the sly twists at the end and I love the idea of Lexie going about her work or tooling around in her car having these crazy sex-escapes. It really is whimsical as well as hot. That, as far as I can tell, is unique to Ms Green’s particular brand of 'steamy.'

Enchanting, innocent, and sexy.
These stories have a gentleness to them: sexy as can be, but enjoyable, and the endings make me want more. I can totally tell this is written from a different time frame (the way people looked at things then). The first, "Lexie's Awakening" indicates what a lot of people go through in their minds, questioning if they like what’s being said to them and how it makes them feel.

Sexy, dark, and thrilling!
In these short, hot teasers, Rowanna Green conveys the idea of pleasure for pleasure's sake. These stories explore secret desires and allow us to glimpse situations that could fulfill those dark fantasies. These are not love stories. They are fun, hot and exciting. Each short adventure grips you and you cannot put it down. If you enjoy adventurous pleasure exploration books, with a hint of non-con, then these stories are for you.

Hot, funny and compelling.
I enjoyed the characters, especially Lexie – that red skirt! The stories are so well written, I read them back to back. Although they are hot, they could have been more explicit, especially the second one, No Gentleman. I did not want to put them down - I had to read to the end.

Really great story.
I like the idea of this story, and I really liked the characters. I love how Sandy was smart enough to know that she was being manipulated, but was so sure of her self-worth that she knew when enough was enough and she was strong enough to walk away from a powerful man, especially in the time it was set (late 80's).

Modern office stories; too tame to be steamy.
I enjoyed the first story but felt the last two fell short of the mark; as though trying for light erotica but not quite getting there. I feel all the stories have further to go; it's almost like they were cut into chunks but they need more. I'm also not a fan of the level of pressure that Sandy was put under in No Gentleman while withholding the true depth of the plan from her.

As you can see, a mixed reaction from erotica fans, but hopefully it will let you know if these stories are at the right level for you. Still not sure if it's right for you? Read an extract

We likes a twist

As a little teaser for the forthcoming naughty shorts with a twist in the tail, here's an office-themed story. At least the first bit of it. If you can tell me the correct twist at the end, I'll send you a free copy of the first book featuring Sexy Lexie.
Hasn't Icy done an excellent job on the cover? I love it to bits.



Here's the story: to get the twist, you'll need to pay attention.

It's a Man's World
A naughty suggestion. A sleazy grope. How do you say no to the boss?

   Chris sat nervously in the secretary’s office, waiting the five minutes until the appointed time, remembering quite different sensations from the last time. There had been nerves then too, and apprehension, but behind it all was hope and promise, not this cold, dread sickness. It had been nearly three months ago, the first interview for a job – even before the final A-level exams finished.
   Mr Benton, “Please call me Andy,” had been very kind then, appreciating how nerves can affect a performance and doing his utmost to create a relaxed, easy atmosphere. He frequently mentioned his “open door” management policy; reckoned he was famous for it. “If you’ve any problems, work or otherwise, just make an appointment with Jane and we’ll try to sort it out.”
   Chris dearly hoped the guy would show the same understanding over this delicate matter as he had on the first meeting.
   Being in the office triggered all manner of memories: Coming out after the interview with the promise of a probationary contract to start the week after the last exam. Chris remembered that feeling of elation. Ok, it was conditional on the A-level results, but after the wall-to-wall study, this should not be a problem. 

   Better still; Andy mentioned the possibility of a full-time sponsored degree in the autumn if everything worked out well. Hearing the secretary put the important call through, Chris figured the time would be usefully spent cataloguing the major incidents, and scribbled a few notes as the memories played out.

   It had been an inauspicious start; most of the tasks a student was allowed to do were mundane and trivial; little more than clerical. But Chris quickly built a reputation as someone who would complete a task – however boring – accurately, efficiently and in half the time it took most new starters.
   Everything went well, and the jobs got more demanding after two weeks. Then everything changed.
   Sam came back from holiday and, right from their initial meeting, there were clues. Little things like the appraising once-over, and the inordinate length of their handshake, should have sounded warning bells, but Chris was far too inexperienced to read the signals.
   At the start, the touching was extremely subtle: a hand placed on an arm, a shoulder, or even a knee if they were sat together. Although Chris was not used to this amount of physical contact, coming from a cold, dispassionate family, it was not unpleasant. Ma’s standing advice had always been along the lines of: “Make allowances, everyone is brought up differently.”
   Every time it happened, her voice would play out with its plethora of platitudes: “Don’t take it to heart,” “It doesn’t mean anything,” and, “Some people are very tactile.” The real saving grace was that they didn’t meet very often; Sam had recently been promoted.

   Then Chris’ team leader, Roy, was out for a few weeks, so all of his team’s projects were temporarily transferred to Sam. Consequently they were spending almost all day together for a few days until the proposal for Chris’ new software suite was firmly outlined.
   The whole touchy-feely thing became more and more intrusive. It started with any excuse to use the soft chat area supposed to encourage better flow of ideas with its low comfortable sofas and coffee tables. Sam insisted they used one of the two-person sofas, and managed to take up so much room that their legs clashed; occasionally sitting so close that their thighs touched. Another favourite trick was to creep up and grab Chris from behind, taking great satisfaction in the resulting effect without a thought for personal boundaries.
   Chris began to dread every time there was a phone call and made sure the coffee pot was never empty to reduce the reasons for Sam to get up. What really brought the situation home was a chance comment when passing a group clustered at the water cooler.
   Trevor made a remark about how a certain manager seemed to have a problem keeping their hands off a certain trainee. Chris blushed furiously and hurried past to copy the schematic. If other people were noticing …
   As usual, the paper jammed, and Chris bent down to free it, unaware of Sam’s silent approach until the hand connected with denim, and the accompanying, “Never could resist a tempting target – nothing quite like a pert butt in tight jeans.”
   The shock knocked Chris off balance, banging head-first into the photocopier and cutting a finger on a sharp edge as one hand reached out instinctively to break the fall. It was humiliating enough to have Sam offering to “kiss it better” without having Andy witnessing it and walking off muttering something about horseplay in the office.


   Later that morning, Trevor was alone in the tea room and Chris asked as casually as possible if anyone else had noticed Sam’s excessive attention.
   He gave a knowing look. “Getting a bit much is it? It’s always the pretty ones. If you want to know about sexual harassment you should go and talk to Angela in the commercial department; she knows all about it.”
   Trevor didn’t say any more as someone else came in, but luckily Chris knew Angela – a petite blonde with a gentle smile.

   That lunchtime, Angela was sat alone and didn’t mind when Chris asked to sit next to her. After a little initial uncertainty, she seemed quite happy to talk about her experiences.
   Her manager had been much more abusive; he’d got very physical very quickly, touching her quite intimately after she’d only been working for him for a few days. In spite of her horrified rebukes he’d been really persistent, following her home and ringing up to tell her husband about their “affair.”
   Chris’ eyes widened in horror.
   “Bless you, it was horrific. Thankfully, the company were very supportive and moved him to another office.” “I bet you were made up. What a monster.”
   “You don’t know the half of it. Apparently, he tried it again, so they got rid of him. I was working for Andy Benton at the time, and he was so supportive.”
   Chris smiled, that was good to know.
   “Actually, there were a few benefits, strange as it seems.”
   “Really? What good could come from something like that?”
   “I enrolled in a course of self-defence classes so I could handle it if it ever happened again. And best of all, it brought me and my Joe closer together – he came along to the classes.”
   Chris couldn’t help but admire the way she’d been strengthened by the incident instead of being distressed by it. She went on to describe how she occasionally spoke at women’s meetings or to classes of schoolgirls about what had happened to her and what she had done about it.
   She cocked her head on one side. “But why are you interested in all this?”
   “Oh it’s just that I think someone in our office is suffering unwanted attentions at the moment, and I wanted to find out what the options are so I could offer some help.”
   “Oh that’s really sweet. Presumably it’s a manager doing the harassing? I thought so. Tell her to talk to her immediate boss – the company has very strict rules about this sort of thing.”
   Chris sighed. Not an option.
   Angela cottoned on quickly. “Of course, if it’s her immediate boss doing the harassing, she should go to his boss. But if she has any problems, tell her to come and talk to me; I’ve built up a few contacts in this area now.”
   Sam was in a meeting all afternoon, giving time to plan the best course of action; with the added bonus of no further incidents. Roy was due back the following day; maybe he would have some advice on how to handle the situation.
   When Roy finally had a minute to spare, however, he was not much help at all, casting doubts on everything he heard. “No way. Doesn’t sound like Sam at all. Are you sure about this? You couldn’t have mistaken friendliness for …”
   “No. Nothing friendly about being patted on the knee.” Or brushing thighs. Or being smacked on the butt.
   Roy frowned. “Well if you are absolutely sure, the only real solution would be to take it higher to Andy; but only if the facts are watertight and you have evidence to back it up.”
   Chris expected this kind of reaction from a man, and glared.
   “If you’re determined to pursue it, I can’t stop you. Just be aware this kind of accusations can ruin a promising career.”
   What about the fact my promising career is being ruined?

   The replay ended as the manager’s secretary came out with a kindly smile. “You can go in now.”
   Chris’ legs turned to jelly.
   Mr Benton listened patiently as the story unravelled, his face hard and stern; this was, after all, a serious matter. He got up at the end and paced round the room, obviously struggling with something in his head. Finally he said, not unkindly, “I can’t believe what I’m hearing. Sam is one of my best managers with renowned people skills. The results from the management training course were exceptional; they’ve never had a student score so highly.”
   Andy leaned against the edge of his desk, sighing as he sought a reasonable explanation. “I think you may have misinterpreted one or two gestures. Some people do tend to use touch as a form of emphasis; I’m sure that’s all it is.” He looked at his watch as though he had a lot more things he’d rather be doing right at that moment. Folding his arms, he suggested there should be no problem now Roy was back. “Unless you have a problem with Roy as well?”
   Chris figures there wasn’t much point staying, he was obviously not taking this seriously. The next statement confirmed this.
   “Look, you don’t have much longer in the department, but we don’t want you to suffer. A transfer can be arranged if the situation really was unbearable.”
   It doesn’t get much worse. Chris left the office with mixed feelings of anger and frustration at the lack of support and helplessness of being unable to stop someone from taking advantage of their position of authority.
   It wasn’t that Sam was unattractive. Indeed, under different circumstances … That train of thought was stopped abruptly as its subject appeared round the corner looking quite grim.
   “Ah, Chris. My office, half an hour.” Chris nodded meekly, then watched, horrified, as Sam entered Andy’s office, wondering if he was going to discuss their conversation; they’d probably have a good old laugh about the whole thing.
   Just before reaching the office, he passed Angela who stopped. “Oh by the way, Chris. You know that matter we were discussing the other day? I forgot to tell you something. Your friend could keep a log of all the incidents – you know, date, time, place, brief description and most importantly any witnesses, that sort of thing … what’s the matter?”
   Chris felt self-pity surfacing and it must have shown as Angela said with concern, “Come on, tell me all about it, it looks pretty serious.”
   Unable to look her in the face, Chris swallowed. “It wasn’t a friend I was talking about, it was me.”
   “You? But how …? I mean, who was doing it?”
   “Sam.”
   “Impossible.”
   The certainty in Angela’s voice plunged Chris deeper into despair. “I thought you might believe me …”
   “You don’t understand. It couldn’t possibly be Sam. I know this because ..."


 Don't forget, if you can tell me the correct twist at the end, I'll send you a free copy of the first book featuring Sexy Lexie.

Birth of a Monster

Ok, maybe monster is overstating the case, but I'm feeling pretty monstrous, having mired myself in a bunch of reading matter which is not my normal happy hunting ground.

Let's just say, after reading all the way to the end of Grey (50 Shades from Christian's PoV), I'm now much better informed about the whole BDSM scene which I alluded to in a couple of my "Naughty Shorts." So now I need to make a few adjustments. 💋

It was like this - I've spent the last month revamping my dozen short stories (written back in the 90s before I'd written the 15 full-length published novels, and the 4 awaiting publication). In doing so, I spotted a common theme and, despite many of the stories having different heroines, there was a way of pulling them together. And so Sexy Lexie was born. As her name implies, she's a bit of a minx, and I had several steamy nights filling in the back story of how she got to be this person.

If you like short stories with a bit of sleazy steam, you can witness her creation here. It's just a teaser, and you can read the full story by signing up to join the launch team.
Imagine Anne Robinson looking over her glasses at you as she reads this in her deliciously stern voice: Be warned - I will be asking questions. 😉

Do I look excited?

The jumping up and down, 90-mile-an-hour handclapping and happy dancing round the room may be a bit of a giveaway.
After years (over 20) of lying unloved and forgotten in a file (or six) on my computer, I'm breathing life into some of the very first stories I ever wrote. If you're a writer, you'll know the ones I mean; every author has them. The ones you wrote just to see if you could do this writing thing. And I suspect many others have a tale or two tucked away.
The reason I'm revamping these naughty shorts is because they all feature a topic I cannot escape from right now - the sexploitation of young, vulnerable (mostly) women.

The strongest motivation for me is the opportunity to change the commonly held opinion amongst people who have never been in the sorry situations these girls find themselves in. The attitudes that, "she was asking for it," or "she should have just stood up for herself," or the fallback, "what did she expect, dressing like that?"
Trust me, it's really hard when the person abusing is someone you've been told you should respect: a family member, a customer, a boss. And who's gonna believe the words of a mere girl over a respectable pillar of society?
Hopefully, these stories will do their bit to open eyes and change attitudes.

Right now, I've just come to the end of some intensive edits, and in some cases and almost complete overhaul. Back in the mid 90's, I was learning my craft and the prose, plotting and (especially) grammar/punctuation left a lot to be desired. With the help of my awesome editor, they are now fit for human consumption, but I need some help. If you are interested in helping with this venture, I'm in desperate need of some beta readers. Find out more here.

I'll keep you posted.

Happy New Year

And so far, it really is.
I ran a little "January Sale" on my two Juke Box Musicals, and they ended up at #1 and #2 in the Musicals Bestseller list.

Also, my youngest passed her driving test, and my middle daughter picked up her Masters Degree in Voice teaching from none other than Lenny Henry. That's the 5th graduation ceremony I've attended, and it was head and shoulders above the rest - that guy really knows how to work an audience.

So far this year is looking a wee bit barren on the releases front for Ro - concentrating on building up the Jacky Gray series with at least three more planned in the Hengist and Bryant Rockwell series.
Maybe the summer will bring forth another juke box musical. Or there's a trilogy which may make it past Nano ...
Oh, and Chris Evans just reminded me February/March will bring with it another 500 Words competition. Another 60 kids' stories to grade. I do love my life, honestly.
