Short Fuse Publishing Launches HOT FUSE EROTIC Imprint for Erotic Romance Novels

SAN FRANCISCO - Nov. 19, 2015 - PRLog -- Fuse Literary’s Short Fuse Publishing program has opened a new erotica imprint in their Hot Fuse romance division. HOT FUSE EROTIC will feature steamy novels, novellas, and short stories by celebrated authors of a diverse range of erotica. The imprint will also be the new home of the annual Hot Holiday Reads anthology series.

Best-selling author Anh Leod is excited to have her next novella chosen as the imprint’s lead title.

“I’m happy to be leading the launch for Hot Fuse Erotic, a new home for quality works that fall into the more sensual end of the romance fiction spectrum,” Leod said. “Love and sexuality are ever-fascinating subjects for readers and I am confident that this imprint will bring fun, exciting, and worthy titles to the public’s attention.”

Fuse Literary co-founder Gordon Warnock heads up Short Fuse Publishing and the Hot Fuse romance lines.

“I’m thrilled with how this line has shaped up,” Warnock said. “With some top talent aboard and what we’ve established with Short Fuse Publishing thus far, we’re able to offer high-quality erotic stories at affordable prices, a little something to help keep folks warm through this winter and beyond.”

Hot Fuse Erotic will launch with three titles: Claudia’s Pleasure by best-seller Anh Leod, the first novella in her Men of Myth demigod ménage series; Flexibility Training by Catherine Silver, the short story that kicks off The Erotic Circus series; and Juggler’s Dozen by Matt Inay, the second short story in The Erotic Circus. December will see future releases in these series as well as the latest installment in Fuse Literary’s annual Hot Holiday Reads anthology series, The Stockings Were Hung. This also marks the beginning of Hot Holiday Reads as a charity benefit, with 100% of the profits being donated to the UNHCR, the UN agency leading and coordinating international action to protect Syrian refugees, as well as a pay-what-you-want option so readers can donate as much or as little as they’re able.
