Come Read My Review of The Spurned Viscountess by Shelley Munro at Smexybooks

TheSpurnedViscountess_200x300
Favorite Quote:”After she freed her husband, she’d smack him over the head with a sharp object. That would knock some sense into his addled brain.”


Roseland Chandler is on the shelf, a poor relation, and thought to be a witch. Marrying Lucien, Viscount Hastings, was the best she could hope for in her situation. When she arrives at Castle St. Clare she is rudely told by Lucian that this marriage is not wanted. But Roseland wants security and a family of her own so she goes through with the marriage; only to discover that Lucian truly meant what he said.
Lucian has just recently returned from the continent mad for revenge for the men who murdered his first wife and unborn child. He has amnesia and doesn’t even believe he is Viscount Hastings. He hasn’t the time or inclination to marry Roseland but the marriage was contracted years ago. He may have to marry Roseland, but he will never love her. As accidents and close calls plague Roseland and threaten her life, Lucian will have to set aside his animosity and fear and find out who wants her dead and why.

Dark Peril (Carpathians #21) by Christine Feehan

Favorite Quote: “You reveal me. Then you heal me. Of all the scars and strife. And when my life was spinning downward, you caught me. I’d forgotten how to smile, but you re taught me.”

Dominic of the Dragonseeker line has given up all hope he will find his life mate so he decides to strike hard and fast at the heart of his enemies; taking them and himself out of the picture. The only way to do this is to ingest the parasitic blood of a vampire.  Once he does this, he will have little time to to get the information he needs and relay to the Carpathian leader. But he did not count on Solange Sangria.

Solange is a pureblood Jaguar, one of the last of the royal line. She has fought alone against her father, Broderick the Terrible, who seeks to capture and torture the remaining shape shifters. Broderick slaughtered her entire family and she is weary of the war. So she plans one last battle hoping to stop the man who has joined forces with the vampires. Dominic and Solange meet in their dreams-neither realizing that they are each others salvation until one fateful night they meet in reality. When Dominic hears Solange’s voice the world opens to him in an explosion of light, color, and emotions. From that day forward he knows she is his life mate. But Solange has spent her life alone in violence and knows nothing about the ways of men and women. As Dominic woos Solange to win her trust and heart; they both will have to deal with their past in order to secure their future.

My New Book Reviews Are At Smexy Books featuring J.K Beck and Samantha McHaque

Today I have 2 reviews up at my home away from home...





When Blood Calls (The Shadow Keepers #1) by J.K. Beck 



Charged with murder, Lucius is shocked when he sees the prosecutor is none other then his Sara Constantine. He never thought one kiss would become an all consuming passion he could not forget about it.

When Sara is promoted to a secretive position within the justice department she is thrilled. Until she realises that she will be prosecuting werewolves and vampires. Her first case...try and convict Lucius Drago. She and Lucius shared a single night of ecstasy that she can never forgot. Lucius knows Sara will do her job unless he can convince her he is not the monster she thinks he is. And that may mean making the ultimate sacrifice.
When Blood Calls is a dark and edgy justice based paranormal romance that takes us into a world filled with suspense, intrigue, and monsters. The world is full of humans and supernaturals trying to live in co habitation with the help of Division 6-a supernatural law enforcement agency. The supernaturals fight everyday to stay within the boundaries of their own laws. One wrong move can result in termination. The world that J.K. Beck has built is filled with a nerve racking tension that demands your attention. Multiple subplots with an ever present sense of danger permeates the story. Her characters are intricate and multi layered, each one poised on the pentacle of violence.

and

Timeless by Samantha McHargue





When Alexandra Kane meets Lance Reed, she feels like she is poised on the edge of something big. How right she is. Lance is not who he portrays himself to be. Lance is the leader of a mysterious project called Genesis. His mission is to recruit Alexandra and use her innate skills to achieve the projects ultimate goal-time travel. When Alexandra’s first mission goes horribly wrong and one team member dead, Lance and his team will have to use everything at their disposal to try and bring her home.




Timeless is an emotional story, rife with intrigue and romance, that kept me engrossed till the end. I could not put it down. Ms McHarque’s world is both vivid and enthralling in storyline and characters. From Lance and Alexandra’s burgeoning romance to the turmoil at the Genesis lab, you are taken on a journey in to a rich sci-fi world fueled by imagination and fantasy.

My New Book Review Is At Smexy Books-Devil's Highlander by Veronica Wolff


Todays review is on The Devil's Highlander by Veronica Wolff (1st in the Clan McAlpin series) 
Marjorie and Cormac have loved each other since they were children.When a childhood dare goes horribly wrong and results in Cormac's brother Aidan being kidnapped, Marjorie and Cormac go their separate ways both consumed by shame and guilt. Marjorie now needs Cormac's help. A young child she cares for has disappeared and she fears the boy has suffered the same fate as Aidan. Though 20 years have passed since they last laid eyes on each other, the passion between them still blazes out of control. As Cormac and Marjorie set out to find the boy they must also come to terms with what happened to them so many years ago. And decide if redemption is possible.
The Devil's Highlander is a passionate and poignant tale of love and redemption. Well written with a smooth flowing storyline, we are transported back in time to the Scottish Highlands. The story's back ground revolves around an old practice similar to pressing. Boys thought to be beggars were often taken (kidnapped) and transported to plantations to work as slave labor. Though it was argued that they were better off in the healthier environment it was still kidnapping and forced slavery.When Cormac's brother is mistaken for a a beggar, he is kidnapped and transported to the islands. Cormac and Marjorie loved each other even as children; but the guilt and shame over what happened to Aidan causes them to go their separate ways. Marjorie now volunteers at an orphanage. When one of her charges is taken she runs to the one man she knows can help her-Cormac. But Cormac is damaged. Back from the war, his heart is filled with nothing but shame and disgust for himself. Marjorie bullies him into helping and they soon find themselves embroiled in a conspiracy that reaches farther then they could ever imagine.
