Possess Me At Midnight by Shayla Black (Doomsday Brethren book 3)


Their attraction is forbidden but can their love last forever? Isdernus Rykard is one of the Deprived but a good man to his soul. When others thought him mad, even his Doomsday Brethren, Ice was not out to set them straight. His only goal was to kill Mathias for the killing of his sister two hundred years before. But once he set eyes on Sabelle he added a new goal to his plans to make this beautiful woman his mate.

Sabelle Rion a descendant of Merlin and sister to one of the council members was all about duty to magickind. She set out to find a cure for the curse that was killing her brother and ended up alone with the one man out of her reach. She knew no matter what her brother would never accept the mateing but would that stop her heart from falling deeply in love.

As a mysterious dark cloud drains the life of her beloved brother, Doomsday Brethren leader Bram, Sabelle Rion can think of little else. Still every time she meets Ice Rykard intense green gaze, her body aches with the need for the sexy warrior. Their attraction is explosive, incredible-and forbidden. As dangerous as he is unpredictable, Ice is her brother's sworn enemy. But as Bram weakens, a more sinister force is gaining power.
Evil Mathias and his ruthless Anarki army are on a bloodthirsty hunt for the Doomsday Diary. Sabelle must guard the potent book with her life-and Ice vows to protect the beautiful witch with his. Buty demands that Sabelle deny her lover's fiery call of possession and mate with a man who can sway the magical Council against the impending rebellion. With the fare of magickind hanging in the balance, will she forsake the burning desire she can't ignore or turn her back on her people for the courageous man she cant resist?
Shayla did not let me down in this book! Through the last two I was wondering what was going on between Ice and Sabelle and it was wonderful to hear their story. I thoroughly loved this book the same as the other two in this series.
Entice me At Twilight, the next installment in the Doomsday Brethren, comes out October 26th. For more information on this book or any Shaylas others visit her website at http://www.doomsdaybrethren.com/ .
I can't wait to met her at RT!!! And for the next instalment of this series!

Seduce me in Shadow by Shayla Black (Doomsday Brethren book 2)


He can deny his fate, but will he deny her love? Caden an ex-marine, hates magic. Coming from a magical family its a part of his heritage that no matter how much he wants to he can't ignore. After being brought from his home in Texas back to London to help his brother, he can't deny it any longer. After the Doomsday diary goes missing Caden must cozy up to a hotty of a reporter named Sydney Blair, and together save the magickind community.


Sydney Blair is out to prove to her parents she's a somebody. After coming into a source who tells her about the wonderful world of magickind she prints a story that changes her life forever. Not only is she now in possession of a diary that makes all her fantasies come true, but she also found an sexy photographer who is interested in not only her magickind story but also her body and eventually her heart.


Ex-marine Caden MacTavish has shunned his magical heritage all his life, but he will do anything to heal his desperately ill brother, a Doomsday Brethren warrior in mourning for his missing mate. Posing as a photographer, Caden must convince firecracker tabloid reporter Sydney Blair to reveal the source of her recent expose on a supernatural power clash. Unfortunately, keeping his hands of the sizzling redhead proves as hard as getting them onto the potent and mystical Doomsday Diary he discovers at her bedside. A bloody rebellion led by an evil, power-hungry wizard is imminent. If Sydney divulges the book's existence, she will jeopardize magickind's most deeply guarded secrets and become the ruthless wizard's number one target. Caden has never trusted magic's cruel and dangerous powers, but he will protect Sydney with his life and magic--even if it means risking his heart.


Another great story by Shayla. The book was easily transitioned from book one to book two. I couldn't put this one down. I love a strong independent woman and Shayla portrayed Sydneys character very well.


Posses Me at Midnight is the next installment! I am so looking forward to it.

Death the Vamp and His Brother by Lexxie Couper


Death exists for one reason and one reason only: to sever the life-threads of the living. She does her job with pride and an unweavering commentment. Nothing ruffles her. Until she encounter Patrick Watkins. The Australian lifeguard pushes all her buttons-and makes her tailbone itch like crazy. And when her tailbone itches, it means troubles brewing. Big trouble.

Ven's gut tells in that Death is taking aim at his kid brother. He should know-he died and was turned vampire while trying to prevent anotherfailed murder-attempt eightenn years ago. Patrick is meant to do something important in the world, and Ven will do anything to keep him safe. Even take on Death herself. In more ways then one.

As far as Patricks concerned, the whole thing is a load of bull. But what if everything Death tells him turns out to be true? How is he expected to save mankind from the worst fate of all-the Appocalyus? Expectually when all he can think about is how quickly he's falling in love with the most feared Horseman of them all...

Warning: This book contains enough heresy to shame the devil, more scorching sex then one person can handle, Oh, and lots Austrailian colloquiamlism. A bloody lot of Austrailian colloquiamlism.


Lexxie puts a whole new spin on the tale of the four horseman. As normal everyone just assumes that all four horsemen are males but not in Lexxies world two are men and two are women. I love that she doesn't go with the norm and impowers us women its great!

I won Lexxies book in The Internation Globalwarming Blog Tour. And I am so glad I did. I now know that paperbacks are not the only books that are worth the money.

For information on this book and others check out her website at http://www.lexxiecouper.com/ .

Thanks for the great read! I look forward to meeting you at the RT Convention in May!

Pride Mates by Jennifer Ashley


What do you get when you combine an Irish accent and shape shifting abilities? One really delectable and totally hot man! Liam Morrissey is a leader of sorts to his pride and one hell of a guy. Hell bent on living his silent life the way it is, little did he know what one little sassy human lawyer could do. Now with new feelings for a human girl he will discover a destiny that he was meant for.

Kim Fraser is all for justice. When a Shifter is accused of killing his human girlfriend Kim is the DA on his case. The only hope to saving her client from the executioner is Liam, but what happens when the only man that can help refuses to give you anything you can use. One day Kim is cool, calm, and collected but that all changes by meeting one man. One man with the cunning of a cat that finds his place into her heart and soul.

To most, they are animals--even when in human form. they are to be collared and kept on the fringes of society, scorned because they are feared, hated for their extraordinary powers. And DA Kim Fraser has to go right into the heart of their lair.
It's her job to defend those in need. But there's absolutely nothing defenseless about Liam Morrissey. His soft Irish lilt and feline grace can't disguise his sheer strength. Nor can the silver chain at his throat, designed to control the aggression of his kind, completely reassure her that this man has been tamed.
Yet when a feral shifter begins to stalk them both, Liam is the only one she trusts with her life. She'll let him claim her-- for her protection, for her pride, and for a passion that knows no bounds.
Jennifer has opened a whole new world of shape shifters for me. I love the family dynamics to all the characters how loving and compassionate they are. Its hilarious how Kim gets used to all the hugging and touching, because that's just not how humans behave. Ellison cracks me up I hope he get his own book in the series. So many questions to be answered in the future of this series and I am looking forward to having them answered.
If you want information on this book and others by Jennifer visit her website http://jennifersromances.com/ .
I can't wait for the next shifter book Jennifer. But I guess I will have to tide myself over with Stormwalker ;)

Semper Fi : Magnus By Jambera Jo Jones


Marine Colonel Joe “Magnus” Rivers’ job is his reason for being. Protecting the
United States of America from all threats is his sole purpose in life. That life is turned upside down when a woman is assigned to his team of elite Marines and his attraction to her threatens his career.

NCIS Special Agent Emily Patterson’s orders: infiltrate Colonel Rivers’ team and
find the culprits behind a slate of kidnappings connected to a sex slave ring. Her mission parameters didn’t include an attraction for Colonel Rivers but nothing in Emily’s career could have prepared her for Magnus. Her job becomes more difficult as she gets to know the man behind the uniform and Emily finds herself wanting to prove herself to him, potentially exposing her identity before she clears Mag.

Mag and Emily struggle against their growing feelings for one another, both
knowing the consequences of giving in to lust. Mag is Emily’s team leader and
fraternizing is against the rules. Emily is investigating Mag and his team; getting involved with him could ruin her investigation and her career.
I loved this book! The relationship between Mag and Emily is so funny sometimes. I loved the elements she put onto this book it took me most of the book to try to figure out who the actual leader of the ring was which I loved. I hate nothing more then to guess the ending by the middle of the book. I sure hope she comes out with more! I want to see the relationship between Ben and Fins twin sister!
I won Jambera's book through the International Global Warming Blog Tour. I am so excited that I decided to do this tour because I got the opportunity to read and learn new authors of all kinds of books. I am normally one of the gals who buy her books in paperback but this tour taught me good books can also come in ebooks too.

Thanks for the great read keep up the good work!

With very little help from her own family Gisele faces death or the help of a stranger. She soon learns that when nothing else is as it should he's the one man that she can put her trust in to save her body, mind, and soul.

Nigel Murray ran from a family he country to escape a women he knows he could never have. Waking up face first in the dirt after one of his drunken nights gave him a wake up call, of how he has been lacking in his life. When discovering two people in the woods little did he know this one siteing was all it took to change his life forever.


Nigel Muray saw through her masquerade from the first: a woman trying to pass herself off as a page. It almost worked --until she was unmasked in battle with the English, at the point of a sword. Recklessly, Nigel saved the beauty whose secrets now endangered them both. He spirited her of to Scotland, determined to erase the terror he tasted in her kiss.
Giselle knew the dark side of men, having barley escaped the brutality of her highborn husband, Lord DeVeau. Now, with DeVeau murdered and a price on her head, she was every man's prey-- hunted for a crime she did not commit. Nigel is her only refuge, a handsome stranger whose fiery sensuality burns all fear in its wake. but to truly trust him, Gisele must leave the past behind, and let her heart accept the simple truth-- of his undying love.

I love the vivid imagination that she put behind the husbands death. I have read quite a few of Hannah's Books. Although I am more into paranormal romance, she always seems to keep me intrigued and wanting more. I am a sucker for a hat man with an accent no matter what time period he is written in.


Check out Hannah Howell at her website http://hannahhowell.com/ . Shes got tons of wonderful books there for you too take a look at!

I know I am looking forward to seeing her at the RT Convention!!!!!

DemonFire By Kate Douglas






In her first mass market release Kate Douglas gives us the first installment in her compelling Demonslayer series! If your into steamy demons and the women who help them this is the book for you!


Heres the inside cover story!


Newspaper Reporter Eddy Marks thinkds she knows everything about her quiet hometown. She couldn't be more wrong. Turns out Evergreen, California, is the site of a vortex that allows demons to cross over to Earth, and the one one who can stop them is and unbelieveavbly sexy fallen demon named Dax...who had just crashed into Eddy's life.


Since he was cast out of Abyss, Dax has been a lost spirit with no hope of redemption. Now the Edenites habe promised him eternity in Paradise--if he can destroy the forces wreaking havoc on Earth. Losing Earth to choas is unthinkable. But succeeding--and leaving behind this headstrong, sensual womanwho tempts and intrigues him beyond measure--will test him to the core.


This being Kates first Mass release this is the first that I have read of her. I love her style of writing makes the story go smooth and makes it even harder to put it down. She adds elements of surprizes that you don't see coming until the very end. Which lets admit is really hard to do with some of the books out there. She has put a new spin on the supernatural world that keeps you wanting more.


My favorite character from this book is Willow I love that even though shes a little sprite shes not afraid to voice her opinion when ever she needs too. I don't want to spoil the book so I will go sheepish on the details but her relationship with Bumper is comical. I also loved how the book ended with all three major characters getting a happy ending! Or in Altons case a adventure to come!


Kate Douglas is defently worth the price I paid for the book! Her second relese in The DemoSlayer series is tited Hellfire coming out September 2010 to Zebra Books! Check out her site for more details http://katedouglas.com/ .


I know I can't wait to add the next one to my collection!
