Fire Burn and Cauldron Bubble by H. P. Mallory 

Life isn’t bad for psychic Jolie Wilkins. True, she doesn’t have a love life to speak of, but she has a cute house in the suburbs of Los Angeles, a cat and a quirky best friend.

Enter Rand Balfour, a sinfully attractive warlock who insists she’s a witch and who just might turn her life upside down. Rand hires her to help him solve a mystery regarding the death of his client who also happens to be a ghost. Jolie not only uncovers the cause of the ghost’s demise but, in the process, she brings him back to life!

Word of Jolie’s incredible ability to bring back the dead spreads like wildfire, putting her at the top of the Underworld’s most wanted list. Consequently, she finds herself at the center of a custody battle between a villainous witch, a dangerous but oh-so-sexy vampire, and her warlock boss, Rand.

The only way to break the curse is by the beast's submission to a virgin maiden. Could the arrival of the unexpected beauty, vowing to save her brother, be the key to breaking the curse?

Erotic short story, only for those 18+.

Caressed by Night Description:

Nook

Dimitri Arsov, the last remaining pure vampire, was thought to be dead for the past four hundreds years. Now, he is back and has a score to settle with the traitor that had tried to kill him centuries ago. But as he waits for his prey to blindly step into his carefully laid trap, his overwhelming hunger for blood is triggered when he saves a beautiful art historian.

Kerstyn Ingmar’s life was normal and straight up boring until the night she is rescued by the dangerously sexy, powerfully mesmerizing, Dimitri. Unable to resist his diamond blue eyes and intense kisses, she is drawn into his world of darkness and closer to her impending doom.

While their desire consumes them, Dimitri is haunted by images of a bloody and deadly future. As his enemies draw near, he must find a way to save his mate from her destiny before fate destroys them both.

Question of the week:  This week's question comes courtesy of Shannon from Cocktails and Books.  Which song reminds you of a favorite book or character?

Where do I begin?! There are so many that remind me of my favorite characters (from my Rulers of Darkness series. Music is a huge inspiration.)


Staind - It's Been Awhile http://youtu.be/araU0fZj6oQ
This song has influenced Dimitri, Gabriel, and Hadrian from the Rulers of Darkness series as well as a Mr. Deathly-Seductive that has yet to be named, who will be featured in an upcoming series.
I absolutely LOVE this song. I can feel the pain, the love, the need and it translates into my characters.

Describes the main character of my upcoming release, Hadrian,  very well.
Tech N9ne - Delusional http://youtu.be/xb09HZhJNcs

Tech N9ne - Happy Ending http://youtu.be/i9y6kDgwbGs
(Love Tech N9ne!)

The relationship between Falcon and Hadrian, some hunks in the Rulers of Darkness series.
Dr. Dre & Eminem

The above 3 are among a list of many. For more songs, visit my wesbite forum.

Sexy Snippets

(Sexy Snippets is a weekly feature hosted by Reading Between the Wines for the 18+ crowd.)

Tuesdays just got sexier.

            ~ Victoria kissed him soundly again on the lips before trailing her tongue down his throat. She released her hold on his trousers and they fell to the floor, his manhood standing proud and now staring her in the face. She tugged on her bottom lip nervously and then she looked up at him. Dorian’s eyes were black and whirled with desire and defiance. He wanted this too, he needed this, but he would deny them both. She would not let him.

            Dorian closed his eyes in ecstasy as Victoria’s tongue swirled up his shaft. Her mouth was like fire surrounding him, drawing him in. He clenched his teeth as lust, yearning, hunger, and thirst surged

through him. Her lips were so soft, her tongue was so hot, and he knew he could not let this go on. He tried to speak but the words would not come as sensation after pleasurable sensation lapped at him with every stroke of her tongue.

            He yanked her to her feet and claimed her lips with a soul-searing kiss while his hands ripped at her nightgown.~

Review of Demon from the Dark (Immortals After Dark #8)

Demon from the Dark (Immortals After Dark #8)

by Kresley Cole 

5 of 5 Stars

Description:

A DANGEROUS DEMON SHE CAN’T RESIST . . .Malkom Slaine: tormented by his sordid past and racked by vampiric hungers, he’s pushed to the brink by the green-eyed beauty under his guard.A MADDENING WITCH HE ACHES TO CLAIM . . .Carrow Graie: hiding her own sorrows, she lives only for the next party or prank. Until she meets a tortured warrior worth saving.TRAPPED TOGETHER IN A SAVAGE PRISON . . .In order for Malkom and Carrow to survive, he must unleash both the demon and vampire inside him. When Malkom becomes the nightmare his own people feared, will he lose the woman he craves body and soul?

(from goodreads) 

Review:

LOVED IT!

This has become one of my favorite within this series. I felt that this was a great beauty and the beast type love story. Malkom Slaine stole my heart from the first and Carrow Graie was strong and goal orientated. 

The book stars with past scenes of Malkom's life then flashes forward to Carrow in a high security cell.

Question of the week: Since it's Cinco de Mayo weekend here let's have a fun question this week! What's your favorite beverage to drink while reading?  

Normally, I read with either a cup of coffee or, if I want something a little less strong, tea. But, then there are days when you just need a drink and a great book to relax: a LARGE glass of wine is the best! How about you?

Dorian Vlakhos is no ordinary aristocrat. He is a vampire king, who will do anything to save his clan from complete annihilation, before an ancient curse can claim his immortal life.

Penniless and orphaned, Victoria Kingston has nothing to bring to a marriage, yet she must shackle an unsuspecting gentleman into marriage by the end of the month or forfeit her rights as guardian of her younger sister. With the help of her dearest friend, Victoria begins her hunt, and vows to stay far away from the dark, mysterious, Dorian Vlakhos.

After meeting the beautifully innocent Miss Kingston, Dorian had to have her. He would do absolutely anything to make Victoria his. One sweet stolen kiss would bring them together while a force, more powerful than any vampire, would bind them for all eternity, but treachery, war, and death rule Dorian’s dark world and Victoria would be fortunate to survive.
