After months of trying to find again their place in each other’s lives, Blake, his Sire Marc and their human lover Kate are going back to the fight against demons… but is Blake ready?

His time in a cell in the demon dimension left him with physical and mental wounds, and while the first healed without leaving a mark, the latter still cripple him at times, plunging him into nightmares until he can’t differentiate between horrific memories of abuse and a present in which his lovers tiptoe around him to avoid causing him more pain.

When Kate can’t stand the status quo anymore and risks pushing at the walls behind which Blake hides, things seem to take a turn for the best. Marc, however, decides to make up for his failure to rescue Blake from the demons with a bold move that could start the nightmare all over again… or bring this trio together, closer than ever before.

Fallen angel Aaron has found the woman of his dreams, an alluring nephilim who has no clue what she really is. By taking her as his mate, he can preserve his strength and immortality... something he’ll need in the fight against the angels who seek to destroy mankind. But first he must convince her that he and his Fallen brethren are not the evil beings they have been made out to be. 

Samantha Benson has the ability to interfere with electrical signals, an attribute which makes professional thievery the perfect career for her. As if her special abilities weren’t enough to deal with, a fallen angel lands right before her and tells her she has angelic blood. He also expects her to believe the Fallen are really the good guys, and that the rest of the angels plan for human annihilation. Surely the sexy-as-sin Fallen is lying. But if so, then why do his words make such sense?

As the Fallen plan to infiltrate a secret prison built by the angels, Aaron must not only convince Samantha that mankind needs her help, but also that the two of them are meant to be together...forever.

There are a ton of upsides to living in San Francisco. Sparring with your friends, annoying your brat little sister, and hospitable weather, if you don't mind the fog.

There's only one DownSide.

All of the deranged, mutated freaks live there on the polar opposite side below the City. Not that Zev Ruzik, Chief of San Francisco's Paranormal Bureau, has ever been there. Twenty years ago, the portals had been welded shut and Zev became a poster boy for Division and Separation of Enhanced People. Today, he's the last male of his kind: heavy dose of werewolf blended with a breed best left unmentioned.

Lyra Methelle is the yin to his yang. Heavy on the 'other' stirred with a moderate helping of werewolf, also last of her kind. Perfect mate for Zev, or so an ancient religion says, but that excludes the fact that she's a DownSide Control agent who just broke a dozen laws to storm through a portal onto his side of the Golden Gate. Lyra is a Tracker with one goal: hunting down her arch nemesis before it locates its target.

Zev is ready to throw Lyra back through the portal, even though all intercity communications are nonfunctional, preventing transport. That is, until he discovers that Lyra's prey is searching for his little sister.

Now, all bets are off and Zev is forced into an uneasy partnership that has him striving to stay focused on their mission and to keep hot and heavy thoughts about Lyra's lush, diamond dipped curves out of mind.

CENTURIES AGO,

Templar knights defied the archangels and unearthed the copper scroll, revealing the gates to hell. Cursed for their forbidden act, they forever roam the earth protecting mankind from evil. But darkness stalks them, and battles they fight bring them ever-closer to eternal damnation. One promise remains to give them salvation – the return of the seraphs.

Embittered by his purpose, Merrick du Loire must honor an ancient pact and bring peace to his cousin’s soul. When he stumbles upon history professor Anne MacPherson, he discovers she possesses a sacred artifact that marks her as a seraph. Duty demands he set aside his personal quest and locate the knight she’s fated to heal. As he struggles with conflicting oaths, Anne arouses buried hope and sparks forbidden desire that challenges everything he’s sworn to uphold.

Anne has six weeks to complete her thesis on the Knights Templar. When Merrick takes her to the Templar stronghold, he presents her with all she needs—and awakens a soul-deep ache, he alone can soothe. Yet loving Merrick comes with a price. If she admits she's destined for him, her gift of foresight predicts his death.

Washington, D.C. … capital of an empire. Powerful. Exhilarating. Corrupt. And in the shadows … vampires far older than the nation itself.

A power unto himself, Duncan has served at Raphael’s side for nearly the entire two hundred years of his existence. But long laid plans have finally borne fruit, and the time has come for Duncan to leave Raphael and tackle the greatest challenge of his life. He will face treacherous vampires and murderous humans. He will rock the halls of human power if necessary. But Washington, D.C. will be his.

Emma Duquet cares nothing for vampire politics. She just wants to find her missing roommate and best friend, Lacey. But Lacey’s been playing with vampires of a particularly dangerous kind, and Emma will have to deal with the new vampire in town if she’s going to find her friend.

Battling powerful enemies who will stop at nothing to keep their secrets, Duncan and Emma will dig beneath the corruption and depravity that is Washington, D.C. and uncover the most heinous conspiracy of all…

My Ratings

Review

Sexual

As with her other novels, Ms. Reynolds uses flashback and we are graced with not only the beginning of an eternal friendship, but that of Duncan’s loss and rebirth. However, this novel is not as gritty, violent or bloody as the previous ones. What you will find is an underbelly of deceit and corruption in the halls of Washington D.C. The subject matter of nonconsensual sex is handled very well and given kid-glove treatment.

Raphael has finally met his match in Duncan. No, Raphael hasn’t been usurped – as these two vampires vary so greatly in their display of powers. Duncan is the epitome of the Southern “Vampire” Gentleman. He holds his power close to himself, only showing any type of display when absolutely necessary. And then, “Katy bar the doors!” This Southern “Vamp” Gentleman also knows how to treat a Lady. *wink wink*

Without giving too much away, there is one part where:

Duncan looked over Alaric’s shoulder, his gaze finding Emma in the deep shadows beneath a drooping tree on the other side of the yard. She stood motionless, staring at him, her hands clasped against her mouth. He slapped Alaric’s shoulder and stepped aside, starting toward her. She watched him come, her violet eyes dark, a suspicious sheen telling him she’d been crying. Her heartbeat raced faster with every step he took. When he drew close enough, her hands fell away from her face as she ran forward, his name on her lips as she threw herself in his arms.
“Duncan,” she cried, then sucked back a sobbing breath.
“Emmaline,” he whispered against her ear, burying his face in the warm silk of her hair, filling his arms with her softness and drowning himself in the scent and touch of her.

This, My Dear Friends, is why I read romance.

But, no, Ms. Reynolds isn’t content to stop there. She has to throw one helluva wrench into the story and WTH!!! I was blindsided by this one. Bravo – Well Done!

As an added bonus, we get more lusciousness in the forms of Miguel, Baldwin, Lucas, Louis. GAH – She is such a tease!

After months of no work, interdimensional bounty hunter Ronin Meyers jumps at the chance to locate an incubus who’s using succubi as murder weapons. Faced with the possibility of being forced to return to hellish Infernum if he fails, Ronin and his brothers will stop at nothing to take out the incubus and anyone else involved—even the beautiful succubus who stole his heart, then nearly his life, during the most mind-blowing hour of his existence.


Night after night, Amara and her fellow succubi are forced to extract special abilities from the strongest Otherworlders for their psychotic master’s growing collection. When the gorgeous angel-demon hybrid she believed to be dead captures her, Amara is both stunned and elated. But the happily ever after she’s dreamed of will have to wait. Together, they must bring down the madman hellbent on destroying them…and become each other’s salvation in the process.

My Rating

Sexual Rating

This is the third story in the series, and it was just as amazing as the first two!  It has the perfect mix of steam, romance, and suspense.  We get to know Ronin so much better in this story. He is an absolute sweetheart who completely adores Amara.  Who can blame him?  Amara is in a bad situation, but she's fighting hard to get out of it while trying to protect the people she cares about.  He was definitely the protector in the relationship, and it worked well for the two of them.  Lario knows how to write a steamy scene and this story was really sexy without being over the top.  She also manages not to be repetitive which makes each scene even more exciting.  

I don't usually identify favorite lines, but I have to in this case since it was so touching.  "Love wasn't something that could be captured or bought, or even earned. It merely was. In one's heart, in their mind. In their soul."

We also meet two new bad guys.  The plot was interesting and suspenseful.  There was a lot of action in the story, and I never quite knew what was going to happen next.   The brothers continue to work together and make some heavy appearances in here along with their lovely ladies.  We also get a nice setup for the next story which I will be anxiously waiting for!

This eBook is to be released Sept. 1st 2010

After being plunged into a chaotic and deceitful society, Maria Guerrero finds comfort in the arms Enrique Torres, a man she believes is innocent of her world. She keeps him ignorant of her inner monster, and the blood oath she took to save her brother's life. Instead she prefers to use their sexual play as an escape from her supernatural world. When her secrets catch up with her, Maria is forced to confess her sins. Will Enrique find it in his heart to forgive her deception? He must, before her vampire master demands that Maria pays him his due. With the help of a disillusioned fey warrior, she convinces Enrique that vampires are real, and danger lurks around every corner.


Enrique can’t allow himself to fall for Maria charms, or he’ll risk revealing secrets of his own -- secrets which would not only scare her, but put his mission in jeopardy. He hopes that by forming a physical connection with the young vampire, he’ll lower her defenses and earn her trust, for only she can help him bring peace to the Immortal Realm. As they play out their sexual fantasies, her true identity is uncovered. On impulse Enrique gives her his trust, and her betrayal hurts him to the core. Now he wants revenge… but at what cost? As the Immortal Realm descends into chaos, Enrique and Maria must choose whether to trust each other again, or fall victims to the dark deceptions that rule their world.

Book is primarily m/f, but does contain one m/f/m scene. There is some light bondage and food play

Rating

Sexual-

This is one wicked vampire book! If your looking for a hot vampire book with body possession, betrayal, adventure, hot M/F/M sex and some bondage, a little spanking this is a excellent one to try. I enjoyed reading all the characters even the villain.

Enrique is part of the immortal console. He is human and he knows his lover Maria is vampire, spite her using her magic to hide the fact. You have one power hungry villain, Carlos is using Maria to seduce Enrique, so he can be under his control to make the clan stronger. But what he doesn’t know is Maria love for Enrique is too strong. This story is not all m/f/m, it has one scene and the rest is mostly between the hero and heroine, except one scene, but I not telling how that one came about. Its different and you’ll have to read and find out. Oh ya, there is also use of a water spring (*wicked grin*).

From the first time Delius became trapped in Selina’s mind and seduced by her provocative thoughts, he was drawn to her. She was a mystery that turned into an obsession. Yet for them to have a life together, Delius would have to go against his own race that demanded he fulfill his destiny. One that did not include

Very unique demon world and a good start for the first of a series. Each demon feeds off of humans fears in different ways. It makes for an interesting storyline. You have 5 hot brothers with their mom as the leader.

Unfortunately for me I just couldn’t get into this book like I really wanted. I wanted to learn more about the heroine Selina and I didn’t like how she just rolled over and believe in the demons and Delius. The story starts out slow but builds more in the middle. Over all its good read, I really liked the brothers and the storyline

Sexual-

A emotional heartfelt story that takes you back to Indians and the wild west. I enjoyed reading this adventure. If you’d like to go back in time with a time hot Indian time traveler name Ethan that takes a white wife and has power of the unknown then give this a try. I enjoyed the cast of characters especially Good-Looking-Woman.

I liked both the hero and heroine they were great to read. The only thing I found wrong is it dragged for me at times. Don’t take this book too lightly, it has some great hardships one is where the heroine Cesca has to stand in the sun for three days, because she helped her brother escape. But this is where Meko (Ethan) Steps up and shows his powers. There is a list of Cheyenne words in the back to make your reading easier
