Carson Phillips was one character that I really felt
sorry for. Orphaned as a young child and left in the care of Alvaro
Magellan. A cold and remote man who takes very little interest in his
young ward. She really hadn't got that many breaks in life. A prisoner
of the awful migraines that she suffers on a daily basis Carson lives a
lonely isolated life. A life that falls apart and leaves her on the
run, when she sees her guardian brutally murder a man. Before long it
looks as if she's jumped from the frying pan into the fire when she
runs into Nikodemus who declares that killing her is # 4 on his list of
things to do.
I've been a fan of Carolyn Jewel since her crimson
series books so I was really looking forward to My Wicked Enemy and I
have to say that it didn't disappoint me at all. I found the storyline
and characters to be very interesting but do have to say that the
threesome in the middle of the story did take me a little by surprise.
Overall it was a fun and interesting read about a powerful young witch
and her sexy demon lover, and I'm very much looking forward to the
sequel in 2009.
A desire that can't be controlled...Carson Philips is
a witch on the run. For years, the notorious mage, Alvaro Magellan, has
held her as his psychological prisoner. But once Carson gets a glimpse
of the true extent of his evil, she flees Magellan's mansion--stealing
a stone talisman of unimaginable power on the way. Her only hope for
survival is a demon who ignites a voracious hunger in her she can't
deny, a longing she can't resist...
A hunger that can't be sated...Nikodemus
is a warlord with a mission: Kill Magellan and his green-eyed witch at
any cost. But when he meets the desperate Carson, the pull of her magic
takes his breathe away. He's not sure he can trust this tantalizing
woman--she is his enemy--and less sure he can keep his hands
off her. But Magellan will stop at nothing to reclaim what belongs to
him. Can Nikodemus stop him before his desire for Carson destroys them
both?

The Darkest Pleasure by Gena Showalter is book three in the Lords Of The Underworld series and in my personal opinion also the best. This story is about the ancient warrior Reyes, who lives a tortured existence because he is also possessed by the demon of pain. Reyes' demon forces him to constantly harm himself and he can know no peace until the day that he meets the beautiful Danika, the one woman who can calm his demon...
It's been a while since Danika Ford has known any peace herself. Her nice normal life has turned into a horrible nightmare with no end in sight. For some reason Cronos the King of the Titans has put out a contract on her life and that of her family...
I know that I described The Lords of the Underworld books as my newest guilty pleasure and this book is no exception. I love all three of the books for this series but this one is my favorite for several reasons. 1. the world building is already done so the author was more able to concentrate on the characters. 2. The character of Danika is just so well done, she is one of the most likable characters that I've read about in a very long time. 3. Even though the book is 368 pages long I really wasn't ready for it to end...
Reyes is a man possessed. Bound by the demon of pain, he is forbidden to know pleasure. Yet he craves a mortal woman, Danika Ford, more than breath and will do anything to claim her—even defy the gods.
Danika is on the run. For months she's eluded the Lords of the Underworld, immortal warriors who won't rest until she and her family have been destroyed. But her dreams are haunted by Reyes, the warrior whose searing touch she can't forget. Yet a future together could mean death to all they both hold dear.…

The Twist by Lee Silver is one of the most fascinating books that I've read in a long time. The story which takes place in the world of big business and high tech genetic research, is filled with interesting and very likable characters, humor, and above all a completely unique story.
This is one book that is definitely a keeper!
So if you're a fan of witty clever stories with a touch of science fiction thrown in then you are going to love The Twist...

The two are unwittingly reeled into a convoluted plan to steal $12 million.
Zane is changing into a carbon copy of Kathy, a pawn in a bizarre genetic metamorphosis, entangling Kathy in a sinewy web of seduction and deceit. Forging a bond that will set the course of their destiny, they fight to overpower the diabolic hold that has taken over their lives.

The Iron Hunt by Marjorie M.
Liu is an awesome roller coaster of an read with a tough kick-butt
heroine and some extremely fascinating secondary characters. In my
opinion the author has really out done herself with this novel the
writing is so beautifully poetic and darkly intense.
But if
you're looking light romance then this isn't the book for you, I would
describe it as a dark urban fantasy with more of an emphasis on the
actual story than a romance. Which is a lot like Karen Marie Moning has
done with her Faefever series...
If you've not already done so I
would very much recommend that you read that you read the prequel
Hunter Kiss first,otherwise you may find the story to be a little
confusing at first. You can find Hunter Kiss in the novella Wild Thing
which is also available on amazon...
Demon hunter Maxine Kiss
wears her armor as tattoos, which unwind from her body to take on forms
of their own at night. They stand between her and her enemies, just as
Maxine stands between humanity and the demons breaking out from behind
the prison veils. It is a life lacking in love, reveling in death,
until one moment—and one man— changes everything.

Christina Dodd's "Thigh High" is a fast paced page
turner! I read this in record time considering I am having one of my
busiest weeks ever with my business. I picked it up every chance I got.
Christina's
characters are wonderfully quirky, delightfully dysfunctional and
lovable to their cores. Mac and Nessa are one of the best book-couples
I have read about in contemoprary fiction in a long time! The winding
plot roads of this book kept me on edge and eagerly wanting more.
The
description of post-Katrina New Orleans and its Mardi Gras are spot on
and I felt as though I had visited the 'Big Easy' after I finished.
Absolutely wonderful and highly recommended for your summer reading list!
Reviewer - Rachel E. Moniz
Nessa Dahl always had the good sense to steer clear of trouble. Then
Jeremiah MacNaught showed up in New Orleans, determined to get to the
bottom of a string of bank robberies by two women wearing Mardi Gras
masks. Little does Nessa realize that the handsome investigator is
convinced she's involved with the crimes-or that he's willing to do
anything to get the truth. Even if it means taking the beautiful woman
he's convinced is a liar and a thief straight to bed...

The Chocolate heiress is a wonderfully fun blend of mystery,
suspense, misunderstandings, amnesia, and above all else love...
Zoe
Jones loves bright colors, short skirts and chocolate, she's also madly
in love with Martin O'Neil who doesn't seem to notice just how gorgeous
and sexy his late wife's best friend really is. Or so she thinks...
It's
been three years since the death of his wife and during that time
Martin has tried to be both mother and father to his little girl while
at the same running his own business. And he's just starting to realize
that most of that wouldn't be possible if not for his fun and sexy
friend Zoe...
Who exactly is Zoe Jones?
Full
of life. Unpredictable. Supermodel looks. Zoe is a far stretch from
anybody’s idea of a typical anything, and much too “big city” for the
small town of Grand River. She’s also developed a fondness for Martin
that just might rival chocolate, and for the first time in her life she
feels as if she really belongs somewhere. Well, sort of!
Once
married to Zoe’s old college roommate, Martin O’Neil has a little
dilemma on his hands. See, Zoe is his daughter’s favorite person and
the one woman on the planet who makes his own heart turn flips. Is
taking advantage of a case of temporary amnesia a dirty trick or an
absolute necessity? Either way, he just might be the one in for one
dangerously sweet surprise.

courtyard. On a sultry New Orleans evening, Jasmine takes these only
clues to her identity and follows them to a place she’d thought only
existed in dreams and ancient faery tales.
Through a doorway in
time, Hayden has come from the dangers of his dying kingdom to the most

the lost prophecies and end a war, he soon finds his quest, his
destiny, and his love are all entwined with Jasmine more than anyone

Kiss Of Fire A Dragonfire
Novel by Deborah Cooke is book one in an exciting new paranormal series
about a group of shape-shifting dragon warriors called the Pyr who consider themselves the guardians of the earth...
I'm
going to come right out and admit it, one of the main reasons that I
purchased this book was because of the cover. It's not very scientific
reason, but in this case everything worked really well. The heroine
Sara Keegan
is a nice normal maybe even slightly boring young woman who inherits a
new age bookstore when her aunt passes away. And that's when her nice
boring world is turned upside down, first she's viciously attacked
outside her store only to be saved by a fire-breathing dragon that
turns into a hot and sexy man. The hero of the story Quinn Tyrrell is a very likable character, he's a protective alpha male who recognizes

over-bearing in the way that the alpha male character is sometimes portrayed...

For
millennia, the shape-shifting dragon warriors known as the Pyr have
commanded the four elements and guarded the earth's treasures. But now

treasures, and the Slayers, who would eradicate both humans and the Pyr
who protect them, is about to begin...
When Sara Keegan decides
to settle down and run her quirky aunt's New Age bookstore, she's not
looking for adventure. She doesn't believe in fate or the magic of the
tarot-but when she's saved from a vicious attack by a man who has the
ability to turn into a fire-breathing dragon, she questions whether
she's losing her mind-or about to lose her heart...
Quinn
Tyrrell has long been distrustful of his fellow Pyr and a self-reliant
loner. So when he feels the firestorm that signals his destined mate,
he's determined to protect and possess Sara, regardless of the cost to
himself. Then Sara's true destiny is revealed-and Quinn realizes he
must risk everything- even Sara's love-to fulfill their entwined
fates...

The Killer Among Them by
Anita Whiting is a fast paced and fascinating murder mystery that will
keep you guessing right up until the end. One of the things that
impressed me the most about this story was the author's vivid
descriptions. Anita Whitings style of writing really draws you into the
story making it almost impossible to put down. The characters are
equally well written and very interesting. Kat Ramon is a strong,
beautiful, and successful defense attorney. She's also a clairvoyant,
which gives her a definite edge up on the competition when it comes to
solving cases. And Cole Collins the gorgeous sexy and very likable
Police Chief is the perfect and at first slightly reluctant match for
Katrina.
So if you enjoy a good murder mystery along with some
romance and a little of the paranormal thrown in then you're going to
love The Killer Among Them...
Can her sixth sense be enough to stop the murders or does the killer have his sights set on her as his next victim?
Katarina
Ramon is a busy, well respected attorney in New York City. Yet the
dreams still torment her. More than dreams—they are replays of the
clairvoyant flashes that show every detail of her parents’ murder years
ago. She resents her gift, these sudden flashes that come out of
nowhere, but accepts that she can see things others can’t.
When another couple is found murdered in her small hometown, her aunt begs her to come home and assist in the investigation.
Police
Chief Cole Collins isn’t at all pleased with Katarina’s interference.
Nor is he immune to her charms. Yet with someone in this little
southern town is continuing the same murderous ways that killed her
parents, Katarina and Cole are left with no choice but to work
together.
Katarina’s vivid memories and sixth sense may stop the killing—or make her the murderer’s next victim.

When it comes to erotic romance Jasmine Haynes sets the standard. Her characters are so very real and believable. The sex is hot and sizzling but never meaningless, and this her latest story is no exception. The plot of The Fortune Hunter (wealthy heiress meets fortune hunter) seemed more suited for a historical romance so I was pleasantly surprised at just how well it worked in a contempory setting. Faith is the type of heroine that almost anyone can identify with. She's a very nice, normal sized woman who also happens to be a little insecure about her looks, and as a result doesn't always realize her own worth. Connor as the not-quite reformed bad boy is the perfect hero and proves the old adge to be true that reformed bad boys make the best husbands. He's the kind of man who knows what he wants and goes after it, in spite of the fact that he doesn't believe in love it's very obvious that he quickly falls in love with his delightful new wife... The Fortune Hunter isn't at all like your typical erotic romance, instead it's a hot, sweet, and very tender love story that will leave you believing in ever after long after the story ends....... If she wants to realize her lifelong dream of having children, heiress Faith Castle had better find a husband-pronto. But there are two roadblocks on her road to happiness, she knows no eligible men, and she's not exactly Miss California. Then she meets Connor Kingston. He's yummy. He's available. And he thinks she's sexy... But he's also honest. After a kiss that leaves them hot and bothered Connor offers to marry Faith, but purely as a career move. It's far from romantic, but it's as good as an offer as she's going to get. Each has a caveat, though. She requires fidelity-and he wants a no-holds-barred sex life. From their wedding night on, they get more and more adventuresome-and Faith starts feeling differently about herself and her body. And somewhere in the midst of ecstasy, she comes to know the most exciting aphrodisiac of all-love. Now, if only there was a way to make him sucumb to it...

Touched By Darkness by Catherine Spangler is book one of her exciting new sentinel series.
I
found it to be a superb dark fantasy woven around the ancient legend of
Atlantis. For the most part stories about Atlantis have become a tired
and over-used concept so I was pleasantly surprised at just how
entertaining the story actually was. The world building was excellent
in that the author gives you just enough information to compliment but
not overwhelm the story.
Seven years ago Dr. Kara Catrell's
lover was brutally murdered by a Belian, an evil demon like spirit that
occupies a mortal body. And ever since she's been on the run, trying to
protect her young son Alex from the same evil that killed his father.
But now it seems that same evil has again found them and the only thing
standing between them and death is Damien Morgan a dark and dangerously
sexy sentinel who forces her to remember feelings and desires long
forgotten. This story has a very interesting twist that will keep you
guessing right up until the end as to who the Belian really is....
After seven years on the run, Dr. Kara Cantrell thought she and her son, Alex, were safe. She was wrong.
Kara
settled in the sleepy town of Zorro, Texas, convinced she and her child
had escaped the sinister reach of a supernatural underworld. But now
dark forces may jeopardize her new life. Her only hope is Damien
Morgan, a dangerous, alluring man with superhuman abilities. He and
Kara share a mystical link that triggers desires they must ignore. But
as they work together to protect her son, and to track the evil
stalking them, something threatens to push them toward the edge...of

The paranormal romance Guardian's Keep by Lori Devoti is book two of the exciting new unbound series and offers an enjoyable and fascinating glimpse into a strange and magical multi-layered world. Although it's not necessary that you read Unbound first you might find it helpful as it does offer an explanation of why the two main characters Kelly and Kol are at such odds with each other. The chemistry between the two of them in spite of or maybe because of their differences is scorching hot that's not to mention the fact that from start to finish the action never ends. If you enjoy stories that are filled with non-stop action, romance, witches, shape-shifters, and all manner of magical beasts then this is one book that you're sure to enjoy....
Kol Hildr had spent the last century battling hellhounds and warlocks who sought to usurp his portal's magic. A mighty shape-shifter with the ability to change into wolf form, Kol made accessing the powerful gateway nearly impossible - unless you were a witch of Kelly Shane's talents. She had a score to settle and would do anything to close the portal that led to her unearthly prison. Though an alliance with her compromised Kol's purpose, something about the little witch overwhelmed his firece, battle-worn soul. But when he learned Kelly's life might be in jeopardy, could Kol put aside the one thing he thought he valued most- the portal-to jouney to the other side and rescue her?

Night Season by Eileen Wilks, is a wonderful blend of magic, adventure, and romance and in my opinion her best story yet.

Along the way they encounter numerous hardships and fantastic adventures. their very hard to put down story is literally filled with action, adventure, romance, magic, and even a dragon. Before reading this story I would recommend that you read the previous books in the series, so that you will understand all of the nuances of this wonderful and magical world that the author has crafted.
Pregnancy has turned FBI agent Cynna Weaver's whole life upside down. Lupus sorcerer Cullen Seabourne is thrilled to be a father, but what does Cynna know about kid's? Her mother was a drunk and her father abandoned his family. Or so she's always believed...

I found For Kicks by Jenna Bayley-Burke to be a charming, and lively read about two of the most interesting and engaging characters that I've read about in a very long time..........
He's about to show her...
On the management fast-track, Breeze Cohen has no time for family. No interest in love. No inclination toward romance, lust, dating-or anything that doesn't include retail business strategy and cornerstone client Nitrous' most important product launch ever. No way is she going to let a live-for-the moment, life-is-only-about-fun guy like Logan Chandler tarnish her professional reputation and derail her career.
...his plan for her isn't just for kicks.
Recovered from a near-fatal bus accident, Logan has successfully moved from professional athlete to key player for Nitrous Kicks athletic shoes.
