AT HER WILL is LIVE! As you can see from the graphic, we've been getting some wonderful feedback on Vera and Rev, which I'm always glad (aka relieved to pieces, lol) to see. Thank you to all my readers who take the time to leave reviews at places like Amazon, GoodReads or Bookbub, or who share your reactions with friends, bookclubs, online groups and others. However, if you're not able or inclined to do any of those things, that is OKAY. Just purchasing the book is something I deeply appreciate as well, and I hope you ALL love the story. ♥💜♥
[Note: If you are a reviewer or blogger who uses BookSirens, the ARC is available there for your download.]
HAVE YOU READ ALL THE MBR BOOKS? Don't forget there are FOUR other standalone Mistresses of the Board Room stories. Whichever one (or more) you decide to try, I hope you have a blast reading them!
The other day, a reader asked for a list of my books with a Dominant heroine, and I figured those who love how I write FemDomme might want to make sure they've read them all. Or maybe you've decided to give them a try, and would like to know what those titles are. 📚📚📚 So here they are.
FEMDOMME BOOKS (as of 2/2025) - ⛓⛓ All can standalone unless otherwise indicated. ⛓⛓
VAMPIRE QUEEN
Vampire Queen's Servant
Mark of the Vampire Queen (read VQS first, this is part 2 of Lyssa and Jacob's story)
Vampire's Claim
Vampire Mistress (M/F/m - so there is some topping by the male Dom vampire)
Vampire Trinity (Part 2 of Vampire Mistress - need to read Vampire Mistress first)
Bound by the Vampire Queen (need to read Vampire Queen's Servant and Mark of the Vampire Queen first, as this is Book 3 of Lyssa and Jacob's journey)
Nightfall (the book I co-authored with the much-missed Desiree Holt)
KNIGHTS OF THE BOARD ROOM
Willing Sacrifice
MISTRESSES OF THE BOARD ROOM
At Her Command
At Her Service (Dom hero and Domme heroine; Dom hero does top her in some instances)
At Her Call
At Her Pleasure
At Her Will
NATURE OF DESIRE
Holding the Cards
Natural Law
Ice Queen (though heroine is a Domme/switch, with the switch being only for the Dom hero)
Mirror of My Soul (Part 2 of Ice Queen, so same applies and Ice Queen should be read first)
Mistress of Redemption
Branded Sanctuary (heroine is vanilla adventurous, not a natural Domme, but hero is committed service sub)
Divine Solace (F/m/f)
Truly Helpless
Hope that list helps! And remember if you ever want a printable list of all my titles, all you have to do is go to my website and click on the Books menu item at the top of the page (not the drop down menu).
On February 15, we had a good party at the JWHMembersOnly Facebook Group and Author pages on Facebook and MeWe to celebrate the release of AT HER WILL. Below are the post highlights, and I've included the links if you want to jump over and read them. These links are to my JoeyWHillAuthor Facebook Page.
First Worry About Writing this Book - Religious/Faith Issues (A Wiccan/Christian BDSM Romance - Joey, Are You Nuts?!)
Pictures that Inspired the Story
The Chosen Series as a Research Source
Second Worry About the Book - Racial Stereotypes
Though you'll find some reactions under these posts, most discussions and more involved comments happen over at the JWHMembersOnly Facebook Group. If you're interested in those reactions, you can Join the group (if you haven't already) and find these same posts by scrolling down and looking for February 15 postings. They are also all on my MeWe page if you prefer that platform!
I did have a post about this on release day, but since it's often the question readers most want to know, I thought I'd recap it right here. So...what book IS next? Umm… I don’t know, lol. Wait! Don't be alarmed.
As of this year, I’ve written sixty books, the bulk of them full length novels, some of them long enough to do double duty as door stops – ha! That doesn’t include my three character-revisit compilations (Cantrips 1 & 2 and Knight Nostalgia).
I have been writing since the late 90s, published since 2000, and a full-time author since 2007, with small press and NY publishers. I migrated into self-publishing in 2015 and took over the non-subsidiary rights on all my books by 2019. So I’ve been a professional author for 25+ years.
It’s time to take a beat and determine where I am mentally in this amazing journey. As I constantly (tediously) mention, I’m a muse-driven author. So what is my muse saying right now?
MUSE: “Take a break, dearie, and do a few months of marketing while I eponymously muse – get it?”
ME: *carefully hidden eye roll* “Yes, get it. Though I’m not sure if that’s a perfect fit, grammatically speaking.”
MUSE: “Just because a coupling requires some work doesn’t mean the two don’t go together. Look at the enormous equipment on some of our male characters. Ben, Dev… It’s like puzzle pieces. If you keep pushing it in, eventually it works.”
ME: "Yeah, next time a reader questions my word choices, I'll mention that. I’m sure they’ll give me a thumbs up." *under my breath* “you crazy sadist.”
MUSE: *frostily* “What was that?”
ME: “Nothing. Hi ho, hi ho, it’s off to market my books I go.”
Most of my series with natural ending points have reached them, if that’s where they wish to be left, and the open-ended ones, Nature of Desire and Naughty Bits, can stop or start at will, because their theme/setup makes them eternally open-ended. But all of my series still have characters with stories that could be told.
Bastion, my sexy office manager in the Mistresses of the Board Room series, is a very good example of that. He’s standing expectantly on that threshold, but he’s a patient Dom. If it’s not yet time, it’s not yet time. Over the years, you all have also given me plenty of input into characters whose stories you’d like to see happen. Some of them agreed enthusiastically. Others appreciated the interest, but have never volunteered to take center stage (or at least not yet). So a lack of material isn’t an issue. I just need a break to ponder.
There’s also a practical reason for this decision. The 4-6 week marketing breaks I’ve taken these past several years after reaching my “two releases a year” goal have resulted in good things, but where the market is right now, more is needed. I need a solid few months of dedicated effort to see if it will be enough to carry me forward, financially and creatively.
So I’ll keep you posted, and in the meantime, I hope you’ll enjoy re-reads of my books (or catch up on the ones you haven’t yet read) and help me spread the word about my stories to your friends who are avid readers. I’ll of course continue to be very present on my social media platforms and with my monthly newsletter so you can keep track of the latest status!
THANK YOU for the many ways you all support my work, not only by purchasing my books, but by spreading the love to other readers, through reviews, participating in book discussions in online groups, doing posts about them on your social media platforms, or recommending my work to friends and family. It is the best kind of marketing any author can have.

2023 CONFERENCE SCHEDULE
No conferences this year, but look under the Extra Stuff section for ways to get a signed book or swag from me anyway!
Want a Kindle signature? My books are listed at the Authorgraph site, so if you'd like a "Kindlegraph", send me a request! Just go to Authorgraph.com, put Joey W. Hill in the search line, and it will pull up my books, with a "Request Authorgraph" button beneath each.
Want a signed bookplate for your print book and a bookmark? No need to be bummed about not seeing me at a book signing. Just shoot me an email at storywitch@PROTECTED with your mailing address and the title(s) of the book(s) for which you want a signature, and I'll send you personalized bookplates anytime, free of charge. And I always send it with a signed bookmark!
HAVE YOU CHECKED THE AUTHOR'S WEBSITE?
I am ALWAYS delighted to hear from my readers, and I never mind answering your questions. However, about 90% of the general questions I receive on email can be quickly answered on my website, www.storywitch.com. And the cool thing is you get your answer in the time it takes you to do a couple clicks, versus having to type up your question and send it to me, then wait for me to emerge from my writing cave and check my email.
A lot of authors experience this now. Because we have so much more of a presence at FB, Twitter, and the like, it's easy to forget that most authors still maintain a website where you can quickly get info. On my site, you can not only find BLURBS and FREE EXCERPTS for every book I've published, you can find SERIES ORDER, including recommendations on which ones can stand alone or need specific titles to be read first. Under the In the Works page, you'll find information about UPCOMING RELEASES and what's percolating (the popular "will you ever write a book about so-n-so" question would be answered there).
Just go to my website, storywitch.com, and enjoy your visit. It is specifically and deliberately designed not to be flashy or confusing. Just look at the drop down menus at the top for what you're seeking.
Want a SIGNED BOOKMARK? I have seven beautiful bookmarks, each design representing one of my series: Knights of the Board Room, Nature of Desire, Vampire Queen, Arcane Shot, Daughters of Arianne, Mistresses of the Board Room, and Naughty Bits. You can look at them here (click on the one you like for a larger view).
Just shoot me an email at storywitch@storywitch.com with your mailing address and tell me which bookmark you want. I'll send you two of that design - one for you and one to share! And yes, I WILL mail bookmarks to international readers. NOTE: some of these show previous cover editions, but hopefully that doesn't detract from their appeal!
Want a SIGNED BOOK? Email me at storywitch@storywitch.com with 1) what book you want, 2) your mailing address, and 3) if you want me to personalize it to a particular name (Mary, Marie, Marissa, etc), or no personalization, just a signature and a cheery note. I'll send you an invoice and, once that's squared away, the book will be on its way to you!
Want a SIGNED BOOKPLATE? Want a bookplate for your favorite JWH book(s)? Just email me at storywitch@storywitch.com with your mailing address, the title(s) of the book(s), and I'll send you personalized bookplates anytime, free of charge. I always send it with a signed bookmark!
Want to read BONUS CONTENT STORIES revisiting my characters? I have over a dozen FREE novellas/shorts with easy BookFunnel download links. You'll find them all under the Cantrips (Vignettes) menu item on my website.
Want me to visit your BOOKCLUB? I'm available for online bookclub meetings and even sometimes in-person clubs, within a reasonable geographic range. Don't hesitate to ask! Just email me at storywitch@storywitch.com.
