Pleasure unbound

About the book:

In a place where ecstasy can cost you your life…
She’s a demon-slayer who hungers for sensual pleasure—but fears it will always be denied her. Until Tayla Mancuso lands in a hospital run by demons in disguise, and the head doctor, Eidolon, makes her body burn with unslakable desire. But to prove her ultimate loyalty to her peers, she must betray the surgeon who saved her life.
Two lovers will dare to risk all.
Eidolon cannot resist this fiery, dangerous woman who fills him with both rage and passion. Not only is she his avowed enemy, but she could very well be the hunter who has been preying upon his people. Torn between his need for the truth and his desire to find his perfect mate before a horrific transformation claims him forever, Eidolon will dare the unthinkable—and let Tayla possess him, body and soul.

My thoughts:

I loved this book. It was a quick read full of passion and alot of action. Tayla is a very strong character. It was interesting to learn more about her especially her past. I also liked that there were so many different types of demons. Eidolon is a very dedicated Dr. I really enjoyed that about him. I really can't wait to read the rest of this series.

Midnight's Master

About the book:

Tall, dark, and formidable, Niol Lapen is the last demon on earth most people would ask for a favor, yet the sexy little reporter who wanders into his club dares to do exactly that. Holly Storm already knows too much about his kind, and Niol has no wish to help her get in deeper over her head. But working alongside her may be the only way to stop a killer, even as it ignites a primal desire unlike anything he’s known.
Holly has seen firsthand what Niol is capable of, but that doesn’t frighten her nearly as much as her body’s instinctive reaction to him, or the wild, fierce passion that would tempt her to follow him through hell itself. Something evil and relentless is prowling the streets of Atlanta. And as Holly’s search leads her into danger that even Niol could never have predicted, she’ll uncover a secret that could rip her world apart….

My thoughts:

This is the last book in the Midnight Series. Niol is the owner of the club Paradise which is frequented by the supernatural community. He is a powerful demon that seems to dwell on the past. We get to learn alot about Niol and what kinds of things shaped the person he's become. Holly Storm is a reporter who has recently learned about the Others. Someone starts killing demons in the city and Holly investigates which of course means she has to deal with Niol.

I really enjoyed this book. There were a few surprises. I also wanted to know more about McNeal and Nathalia. All and all this was a great read. So far I'd say Midnight's master is my favorite but I haven't read Midnight sins yet.

I would definitely recommend Midnights master to anyone who loves paranormal romance.

Midnight's master will be released on June 30. Also check out the author's site. http://www.cynthiaeden.com

Red headed stepchild

About the book:

In a world where being of mixed-blood is a major liability, Sabina doesn’t really fit in. And being an assassin – the only profession fit for an outcast – doesn’t help matters. But she’s never brought her work home. Until now.
Her latest mission is uncomfortably complex, and threatens the fragile peace between the vampire and mage races. As Sabina scrambles to figure out which side she’s on, she uncovers a tangled political web, some nasty facts about her family and some unexpected new talents. Any of these things could be worryingly life-changing, but together, they could be fatal …
This time, it’s personal.

From Jaye wells site http://jayewells.com/books/

I enjoyed this book from the beginning. It started off pretty dark but had alot of humor. Sabina is a mixed blood vampire mage who denies her mage side. She was raised by her vampire grandmother and trained to be an assassin. Eventhough she is raised in vampire society Sabina still remains an outcast. Red headed stepchild is set in contemporary times. The world includes supernatural community that consists of Fae, vampires, mages, demons . I like the backstory of Lilith being the mother of the dark races it's very interesting.

Sabina's Grandmother sends her on a mission which starts her questioning her grandmother for the first time. From here on there is much action and surprises. You see Sabina go through alot and change from who she was at the begining to a stronger person.

Redheaded stepchild is book one in a trilogy.

What I read today

I recently was rearranging the books on my shelf and came across Charmed and Dangerous. I finished reading it today.



Quoted from Candace Havens site:
When Bronwyn turned twenty she took the oath to protect, and for the last five years she's kept that promise, working as a kind of one-witch secret service to the British Prime Minister. Her arsenal includes a combination of potions, spells, explosions, mind-reading tricks, and general butt-kicking skills. But Bronwyn has a soft side, too-especially when it comes to Dr. Sam, the favorite physician of her new hometown, Sweet, Texas. He's smart, funny, adorable, everything she could want in a man. Except he's also a warlock-a big no-no in Bronwyn's book of dating. Being a witch is definitely getting in the way of her sex life. If zapping evil jerks is easy, why is finding a boyfriend so hard?

Source:http://www.candacehavens.com/index.php/books/

My thoughts:

I love sassy and strong heroines. Bronwyn is all that and more. She never backs down from a fight. Sex, romance, witches, and warlocks. The book is kindof written like it's a journal showing time, Bronwyn's location and also briefly summarizes happenings. Charmed and Dangerous is very funny especially the interactions between the people of Sweet Texas. I was happy to see that this is the first part of a series called Bronwyn the witch. Book two is called Charmed and Ready and the third is called Charmed and Deadly. There is also a book about Bronwyn's friend Kira Smythe.

I would definitely recommend this book. I plan on reading the rest of the series.
