New York Times bestselling author Nalini Singh stuns with a sizzling contemporary romance…

A bad boy wrapped in a sexy, muscled, grown-up package might be worth a little risk…

Molly Webster has always followed the rules. After an ugly scandal tore apart her childhood and made her the focus of the media’s harsh spotlight, she vowed to live an ordinary life. No fame. No impropriety. No pain. Then she meets Zachary Fox, a tattooed bad boy rocker with a voice like whiskey and sin, and a touch that could become an addiction.

A one-night stand with the hottest rock star on the planet, that’s all it was meant to be…

Fox promises scorching heat and dangerous pleasure, coaxing Molly to extend their one-night stand into a one-month fling. After that, he’ll be gone forever, his life never again intersecting with her own. Sex and sin and sensual indulgence, all with an expiration date. No ties, no regrets. Too late, Molly realizes it isn’t only her body that’s become addicted to Fox, but her heart…

I loved everything about this book! Rock Addiction is the first book in Nalini Singh’s sexy new series, The Rock Kiss Series. I love her paranormal series so I was excited to try her new contemporary series. I was not disappointed. A sexy rocker and a librarian heat up the pages. Nalini Singh hooked me from the beginning of the story and captured and held my attention. Fox is scorching hot and breaks down all Molly’s walls. He’s impossible to resist. I highly recommend this new series. It’s a great love story and left me wanting more. I’m so excited that the secondary characters will be getting their own books and will be dropping everything to read it when it releases. Go get guys! You won’t be disappointed! Rock Addiction is one of my favorite releases of 2014.

I’ve been writing as long as I can remember and all of my stories always held a thread of romance (even when I was writing about a prince who could shoot lasers out of his eyes). I love creating unique characters, love giving them happy endings and I even love the voices in my head. There’s no other job I would rather be doing. In September 2002, when I got the call that Silhouette Desire wanted to buy my first book, Desert Warrior, it was a dream come true. I hope to continue living the dream until I keel over of old age on my keyboard.

I was born in Fiji and raised in New Zealand. I also spent three years living and working in Japan, during which time I took the chance to travel around Asia. I’m back in New Zealand now, but I’m always plotting new trips. If you’d like to see some of my travel snapshots, have a look at the Travel Diary page (updated frequently).

So far, I’ve worked as a lawyer, a librarian, a candy factory general hand, a bank temp and an English teacher and not necessarily in that order. Some might call that inconsistency but I call it grist for the writer’s mill.

EXCERPT FROM LAURA KAYE’S FOREVER FREED, A BOOK IN THE TALL, DARK, AND PARANORMAL BOX SET

The bedroom door had barely clicked behind me when Samantha grabbed and shoved me toward the bed. I fell backward, and she was on top of me, clawing at my clothes and ripping off her own. Whatever had been going on with her all day was now clearly finding a release.

“Sam?”

She kissed me roughly and shoved her tongue into my mouth. I groaned and pushed her back.
Though we french kissed all the time, I generally kept her out of my mouth.

“Sam?”

Finally, she stilled. With her hands braced on my shoulders, her eyes burned down into mine. Her anger squeezed my chest. Her voice was strained. “Lucien, we’ll talk later. I promise. But right now I want you, and I need you. And I need you to know it, feel it.” Her words clarified little, but I nodded.

She unleashed herself on me, kissing and licking and roughly nipping at my upper body all while
maintaining eye contact. I thrust my hips into her when she lingered over my Blood Mark. I finally had to grab her hair and tug her attention away from it.

With a groan, she reached a hand down between her legs and worked herself as she devoured me. When I realized what she was doing, I moaned and gripped her shoulders and rolled on top of her.

I grabbed her hand and pulled it to my mouth, then noisily sucked on her wet fingers. I groaned at the sweet nectar of her arousal.

“You see what you do to me, Lucien? What only you do to me?” she rasped. “Take me, Lucien. I’m yours,” she offered as she planted her feet flat on the mattress and pushed herself up forcefully against my erection.

Her aggression spurred mine, and I grunted. “You want me?” I asked as I ground myself against
her wetness. She ran a hand over the bedspread and found the packet she’d apparently laid out earlier. She slid herself against me as she opened it and then rolled on the condom. “God, yes,” she whimpered.

I plunged forward and filled her in one hard stroke. She screamed and wrapped herself around
me. Hard breaths and grunts and strained curses in two languages filled the room as we battled through Samantha’s emotions with our bodies. She kissed me roughly and dug her nails into my flesh. The physical pain mingled with her radiating pleasure to coax what I was sure was going to be one of the most intense orgasms I’d ever experienced.

She came in a frenzy of screams and muscle contractions. And then bit against the taut skin at
the base of my neck. Hard.

My fangs and release shot out at the same time. I growled and in a blur turned my head in search of my biceps. I missed the tender skin of her shoulder by a hair as the urge to bite down became irresistible.

Finally, I willed my fangs to retract and licked at the wound I’d made on my arm, then slid down a little and laid my head on her heaving breasts.

“I love you,” I whispered breathlessly.

She hugged my shoulders and combed her fingers through my hair. “I love you, too.” We lay together, panting, for a long time. “Lucien?” I lifted my head off her chest to look at her. “I’m ready to talk now.”

IMG_2304.JPG
From the author of Kinked and Oracle’s Moon…In the USA Today bestselling author’s latest Novel of the Elder Races, a woman finds herself in need of protection—and seduced by honor…

On the run from her former employer, Tess knows that she’s vulnerable on her own amongst the Elder Races. That’s why she decides to audition to become the human attendant of a powerful Vampyre of the Nightkind demesne. But while her position affords her the safety she seeks, her protector turns out to be more than she bargained for.

The right-hand man of the Nightkind King, Xavier del Torro is both terrifying and alluring. While his true nature frightens Tess, she can’t ignore the appeal of his innate sense of integrity and self-restraint. Thrown into Xavier’s world, Tess must quickly learn to navigate the dangers—both to her life and to her heart. But the biggest threat comes from her own past…

IMG_2303.JPG
I love this series! Thea Harrison creates a unique and exciting paranormal world with her Elder Race Series. Night’s Honor is the seventh book in this series and can be read as a stand alone, but I recommend reading the series in order. Night’s Honor was exciting and captured and held my attention from start to finish. The romance and chemistry between the characters doesn’t show up until the end of the story though. I believe this is because Tess becomes one of Xavier’s people and because she works for him it goes against his honor to have any romantic feelings for her. And Tess doesn’t like vampires and it takes a while for her to see past what Xavier is and see who he is to become attracted to him. Overall I enjoyed this new addition to the series and I can’t wait to see what Thea Harrison has in store for us next.

IMG_2191.JPG
Travis Bennett is exactly the kind of guy Lauren Davis has been avoiding for the past nine years. Religiously. Stubbornly. Successfully. She knows too well how easy it is to let lust ruin perfectly laid plans. And a small town farmer with no ambitions beyond the borders of his own cornfield is not going to change her mind. She’s got important stuff to do. Her company is literally working to stop world hunger. Her plans are much bigger than Sapphire Falls. No matter how hot those farmers might be.

The problem is—Lauren is falling in love. With Sapphire Falls. To kick her sudden desire to buy a welcome mat and start baking pies, she asks Travis to help her get over her crush. She wants him to show her what life in the small town is really like behind all the sweetness and sunshine and remind her that there’s no place for French manicures and Gucci heels on the farm.

IMG_2190.JPG
Getting Dirty is sexy and funny. Lauren wants to hate Sapphire Falls. It’s a small town that reminds her of a time she was willing to give up all of her dreams for the proverbial white picket fence and 2.5 kids. Travis Bennett loves everything about Sapphire Falls. The sense of community, friends he has had since he was a kid, and his farm is everything he wants and needs. Lauren thinks Travis is the perfect person to show her everything about the town. She thinks the more she knows about small town Sapphire Falls, the more she will hate the life, and be in a hurry to get back to her ‘normal’ life. Instead the longer she is there the more she becomes unsure if she will ever be able to leave. The chemistry between Lauren and Travis nearly set my kindle on fire. I love the entire Sapphire Falls series. They can each be read as a stand alone, but I recommend them all. This may be my favorite book in the series so far!

From the author of Breathe and Blush comes a blisteringly hot new novel about baring it all….

On her last night in Nevada before embarking on a yearlong veterinary internship, Scarlett Malone is celebrating–and looking for one night of incredible pleasure. But the man who draws her eye is not her usual type: He’s a cowboy whose alpha-male tendencies tempt her beyond belief. Scarlett can’t understand why she wants this man and no one else, but she’s determined to entice him to submit….

Dr. Logan Brody lives an isolated life in rural Montana, running a ranch and suppressing his submissive tendencies. Only on his occasional trips does he give into his hidden urges. He can’t deny his scorching attraction to Scarlett or that she makes him want more, but he never lets anyone break him down fully. He’s hers for one night and one night only.

But when Scarlett shows up at Logan’s door as his intern for the year, he realizes that the walls around his heart are about to crumble–and that this sexy dominant woman has no intention of letting him keep control….

IMG_2067.JPG
Linger is a hot and sexy twist on BDSM. Scarlett is giving up her life in Vegas to move to rural Montana for a veterinarian internship and before she leaves she wants one last night as Mistress S at the club. Logan is in Vegas for one night to escape his mind. Normally his farm keeps him busy enough, but sometimes he needs more. Logan is an alpha man that wants a dominatrix to take control of his body and his mind. He doesn’t want to think. From the moment Scarlett and Logan see each other the passion ignites. Their time together at the club is blazing hot, and she never wanted to change her plans and stay as much as she did after that night. When Scarlett shows up at the farm in Montana, she is shocked to find Logan to be the owner. Can Logan be the sub she desires? Will Scarlett be a strong enough Mistress for Logan? I prefer male doms, but I think the author did a great job telling this story.

Note: Donna tried this book first and was unable to finish it because of the PTSD issues in it. Here’s her thoughts.
As the wife and mother of PTSD sufferers, I cannot in good conscience finish this story. The author writes very well and I found the surface story intriguing but feel that PTSD needs professional medical help, not broken down and rebuilt by a Dom.

Lauren Jameson Lauren Hawkeye/ Lauren Jameson never imagined that she’d wind up telling stories for a living… though when she looks back, it’s easy to see that she’s the only one who is surprised. Always “the kid who read all the time”, Lauren made up stories about her favorite characters once she’d finished a book… and once spent an entire year narrating her own life internally. No, really. But where she was just plain odd before publication, now she can at least claim to have an artistic temperament.

Lauren lives in the Rocky Mountains of Alberta, Canada with her husband, toddler, pit bull and idiot cat, though they do not live in an igloo, nor do they drive a dogsled. In her nonexistent spare time Lauren can be found knitting (her husband claims that her snobby yarn collection is exorbitant), reading anything she can get her hands on, or sweating her way through spin class. She loves to hear from her readers!

From the author of Hot Pursuit and the Firefighters of Station Five novels…

When a dangerous criminal targets those whom Sugarland detective Chris Ford holds dear, nothing will stop him from hunting down his man.…

Chris is one the best and brightest at the Sugarland PD, but lately a mysterious illness has him struggling to get through the day. When his symptoms land him in the care of brilliant and sexy Dr. Robyn Lassiter, Chris realizes that he is the latest victim in a rash of mysterious poisonings in the area—most of them fatal. Figuring out who’s causing the fatal outbreak has become a very personal—and deadly—race against time.

Despite battling her own personal demons and painful past, Dr. Robyn Lassiter can’t fight her attraction to her new patient. But as she struggles to help Chris track down the sick mind behind the deaths, she’s not only at risk of losing her heart but of falling headlong into a lethal plot that could take her life.…

IMG_2031.JPG
I enjoyed this novel and how Ms. Davis wove the hot romance in with the mysterious threat surrounding them. It was also refreshing to see two destined lovers open to the possibilities and not fighting the attraction with every breath. They made a great couple and did I mention their romance was hot? All the characters are believable and it’s clear they share a closeness and comradery that is common among emergency personnel. All in all, a very fun read that kept me guessing until the end. I’m looking forward to the next visit to Sugarland Blue and the hot guys that work there.

Spotlight & Review: Dark Blood (Carpathian Novel, Book 26) by Christine Feehan

Dark Blood (Carpathian Novel, Book 26) by Christine Feehan
Publication Date: September 2, 2014

Rated: 4.5 Stars

IMG_1996.JPG
The fates of a warrior reborn and a seductive Dragonseeker are irrevocably entwined in the new Carpathian novel by #1 New York Times bestselling author Christine Feehan, “the queen of paranormal romance” (J. R. Ward).

At long last you are truly back with us…

Zev Hunter was an elite warrior, a dark-blood dealer of death to rogue Lycans who preyed on mankind. He was a loner, never given to personal attachments, and damned fierce at his job. But Zev begins to question his past and his purpose when he awakens in the darkness of the sacred cave of warriors—and is soothed back to consciousness by the sensuously familiar voice of one woman, the woman who has haunted his fantasies for centuries. She was Branislava, member of the Dragonseeker clan…

Mother Earth called the ancients to witness your rebirth…

For this half-mage, half-Carpathian temptress, the ritual of awakening Zev to the council of warriors was the only way to save him. Locked away for his own protection, the time has now come for his rebirth, for his blood to stir with that of the ancient warriors before him. He has been assured by Branislava that their fates are entwined, that their spirits are woven together for eternity and that his new purpose in life is beyond imagining.

Now, with a blood-sworn vow of honor, mercy and endurance, and under the influence of a siren as bewitching as Branislava, Zev begins to wonder what his purpose is, what it means for the future of the Carpathians and what it is about his rebirth that he has to fear…

IMG_1995.JPG
Another exciting trip into the Carpathian world where danger and passion keep you gripped in its web. The love story between Zev and Branislava was hot and sensual like we’ve come to expect in this series. I loved that she is a strong alpha in her own right and that Zev not only appreciates that but loves it. A perfect match in all ways where they give and take as the situation demands. My only complaint is that it got a bit bogged down in the intricate parts of magic and spells. Thankfully it more than made up for that with the finale. I couldn’t read fast enough and heaven help anyone that tried to interrupt me. I won’t give anything away but am excited at the possible subject material for future books.

Note: Dark Blood is book #26 in the Dark Series and book #3 of the new Dark Trilogy.
