Chelsea is enthralled by the magnetic violinist Kyle Montgomery, and at the first pure notes that trilled into the night, she is bombarded by a lust so powerful she lost her breath. She loses control of her body, and she hungers constantly for the hardness of a man's arms around her. To confound her further, she finds herself attracted to the equally compelling brilliant composer Grant Thornton...who dislikes her.
Bound by the magic that flows from the violin, the three are inexorably drawn to one another to assuage their deepest needs. But when the notes fade away, who will be left to play the symphony?
Reader advisory: This book contains scenes with same-gender sex.
Reviews for Madison Blake
From Night Owl Romance – Reviewer Top Pick:
“Ms. Blake pens a passionate story [Playing For Real] with entertaining and intriguing characters and steamy romance. She has created believable, fleshed out characters that seems to jump of the page and an imaginative plot that reaches out and hold your attention. The sexual tension and spicy ménage a trois romance, she blends perfectly with the bonds of trust and friendship. This is a page-turner that I didn’t want to put down and a fabulous addition to my keeper collection. I definitely recommend this book and can’t wait to read it again.”
From The Romance Studio:
"[In Love In Mysterious Ways] Madison Blake has taken a smoking hot tale of fantasies and desires between a husband and wife and turned it into a well-crafted, emotionally-driven story of love, attraction, curiosity, and finally sexual honesty between husband, wife, and lover… The sexy shenanigans between the three literally scorch the pages with their explosive passions and sensual play while offering enough variety and spice to ménage play. Any reader who enjoys their erotica with a whole lot of kink will want to devour this one up!"
From Dark Angel Reviews:
"Perhaps Love is a touching and heartfelt story couched as a fantasy… The plot sequence of this story is tautly-derived and well-written. Scene flows into the next with no choppiness and the reader is captivated immediately from the first paragraphs. The characters of Esmeralda and Orin are especially well-delineated… Perhaps Love is a story readers will be happy to find and will wish to reread for its emotional content and sensual stimulation."

An Interview with Madison Blake
By Holly Hewson for The Romance Studio
HH: Madison, thank you so much for talking with us at TRS BLUE. Please tell us about your featured work, Sex Symphony.MB: Sex Symphony is the first book in the Musical Aphrodisiac series. We have Kyle Montgomery, a supremely musically-talented young man, with a lot of baggage from his past. Wild and restless, Grant's love grounded him. However, this love is to be tested with the advent of Chelsea White, the fated true mate in their triad. Chelsea has her own troubled history, and her past has made her afraid to love again. How will this particular symphony play out? Well then, you'd have to read the book. *grin*
HH: This is the first book in your Musical Aphrodisiac series. Where did the idea for the series come from? MB: The central holding item throughout the series is actually a golden violin that has been in the Montgomery family for generations. The violin is magic, in that it inspires lust in true mates whenever it is played in their hearing.
There were two sources that served as inspiration for this series. The first was the one ring in The Lord of the Rings. You know, the one ring to bind them... So, my mind played with it and came up with the one violin to rule them all in lust...
Then, why the violin and not some other item, like maybe a charm bracelet or something? Here is where the second source came into play. I've always had problems coming up with titles for my story, so when "Sex Symphony" dropped into my lap, I just had to use it. Then, I had to decide on a musical instrument, and I thought the violin's music was hauntingly beautiful, so the violin it is.
HH: How does Sex Symphony kick the series off? MB: Sex Symphony introduces the readers to the Montgomery family and gives the first taste of the awesome power of the magic violin.
HH: What do you like best about Kyle Montgomery? MB: His awesome musical talent. I've always found guys like him very sexy, not to mention those who can cook (Jamie Oliver!) or guys who love babies (still waiting for one to come within sight).
HH: What can you tell us about the books to come in the series? MB: The stories are going to be hotter and more complicated, more happenings and plot twists. The next one tells the story of Jason, Kyle's older brother, and the third one is about Sarah, Kyle's older sister.
HH: What else do you have in store for lucky readers? MB: I've got a futuristic paranormal (psychic) story coming up in April entitled "Psychic Heat", with a little bit of suspense thrown in. Telepath Rhiane has been having blackouts, and she's afraid that her psychic talent is fading. She seeks out the help of healers Morgan and Jaden, and what they found was enough to chill their brains, because someone was deliberately tampering with Rhiane's mind.
I've also got a contemporary-fantasy entitled "At Long Last, Love". It's a sweet, hot, heartwarming story of a woman who's long searched for love, and the man who just might fulfill her dream. The question is, when he finds out who she really is, will he still be able to accept her?
HH: What would you most like to accomplish in your career this year? MB: I hope to write several more books that are floating in my head that would give readers several hours of pure entertainment, and I hope more people would get to know more about me and my books.
HH: Will you be attending any conventions or events this year? MB: I wish! I'd love to meet everybody! Unfortunately, not this year. I'll keep everyone posted should circumstances change.
HH: What do you consider a good writing day? MB: When I've written a lot! Seriously, a good writing day is when, after writing, I feel a warm glow of satisfaction.
