Image
Paperback: 234 pages Publisher: Entangled Publishing, LLC (November 1, 2011) Book blurb: While attempting to escape the agonizing memories she associates with Christmas, twenty-nine-year-old widow Megan Snow builds a snow family outside the mountain cabin she once shared with her husband and collapses in tears against the snowman at the sight of what she'll never have. Called to life by the power of Megan's tears, snow god Owen Winters appears unconscious on her doorstep in the midst of a raging blizzard. As she nurses him to health, Owen finds unexpected solace in her company and unimagined pleasure in the warmth of her body, and vows to win her heart for a chance at humanity.

Image
Paperback: 252 pages Publisher: Lands Atlantic Publishing, LLC (March 21, 2011) Blurb: For Teagan, these last few months have been heaven on earth - especially now that Garreth, her boyfriend and guardian angel, is earthbound. But perhaps Garreth is becoming a little more human than either of them expected.

In this continuation of Angel Star , Lemniscate will draw you even deeper into the world of dark and light as Teagan realizes the angel who could possibly save them all is the one angel she feared the most. Our review: David Bowie has sung about c-c-changes and in the sequel to Angel Star , there are plenty of changes going on. As much as I enjoyed the first novel, I must admit the second was even better. We now witness and learn that the dark side Teagan first encountered is not something she alone grapples with. ...

Virtual Book Tour: Soul Seduction

Image
Blurb:  Ashlee Bennett has her priorities straight. Fighting demons is at the top of the list until she meets her sexy neighbor, Luke Byrne. Even though he is human, she can't stop dreaming about his buff body and sexy grin, until her dreams turn to nightmares.  Her world is turned upside down when Luke follows her one night but instead of being afraid, he is only more determined to stand beside her and fight. Ashlee knows she needs to keep her distance from Luke, not just to protect her virginity but her heart as well. But Luke may be the only one who can save her from the night, and her dreams. Guest post topic: How do you keep it 'fresh' in erotica?  Keeping it fresh in erotica is pretty easy. Everything in the story is changing, from the scenery to the circumstances of how the hero and heroine get together. It would get repetitive if they were constantly retiring to the bedroom for some missionary sex and falling asleep after sex. But Ashlee isn’t t...

Book review: Melody Burning by Whitley Strieber (YA)

Image
Reading level:  Ages 12 and up Hardcover:  224 pages Publisher:  Henry Holt and Co. (BYR); First Edition edition (December 6, 2011) Book blurb:  Beresford doesn’t remember much about his past or how he came to live in the chutes and crawl spaces of the posh high-rise that shares his name. But when rock star and teen sensation Melody McGrath moves to an apartment on the fiftieth floor, he knows he has to be near her. Although she doesn’t realize it, Melody is threatened by more dangerous forces than her manipulative stage mom and the pressures of life in the spotlight. The owner of the glamorous building has been hiding a fatal secret within its walls, and Beresford puts all his plans at risk. Will Beresford and Melody be able to escape with their lives (and love) intact?  My review:  Could those noises we hear while alone inside our room at night be more than our imagination in overdrive? What if there was an actual person on the other side of that wall...
