Cover Re-Reveal: What the Heart Wants by Staci Hart

What the Heart Wants
by: Staci Hart


Love wasn't an option, until he met her.

It's 1984, and Tanaka Katsu is paving his way in the Yakuza. His marriage to Yuki was a business deal, and one that he has paid for with his happiness.

Aphrodite can't stand that he's so miserable, and Hera, the goddess of marriage and monogamy, has a strong hold on Yuki, who will do whatever it takes to get what she believes is hers. Aphrodite won't sit by and watch Katsu's life slip away with no chance at love, so when he takes a trip to Vegas, she'll introduce him to his match.

Kim never thought she'd be in the situation like the one that's coming her way, but what the heart wants is a powerful thing, and one that's impossible to walk away from.


About the Author:

Staci has been a lot of things up to this point in her life -- a graphic designer, an entrepreneur, a seamstress, a clothing and handbag designer, a waitress. Can't forget that. She's also been a mom; she has three little girls who are sure to grow up to break a number of hearts. She's been a wife; even though she's certainly not the cleanest, or the best cook. She's also super, duper fun at a party, especially if she's been drinking whiskey. Her favorite word starts with f, ends with k, and there a uc in there. Just saying. From roots in Houston, to a seven year stint in Southern California, Staci and her family ended up settling somewhere in between and equally north, in Denver. They are new enough that snow is still magical. When she's not writing, she's sleeping, cleaning, or designing graphics. But let's be honest, she's mostly writing.

Favorites Reads of 2013 Mistress of the Stone by Maria Zannini






Title: Mistress of the Stone
 Author: Maria Zannini
Genre: Historical Paranormal Romance
 Length: Novel
Reviewed by: Laurie
 Rating- 5 Sexual- 4











She was ready for his steel, but not for his flesh..

Luísa Tavares has a list of sins the length of the Antilles, but there’s no time to repent for them now. When a pockmarked Frenchman hands her Papa’s ring—still attached to his severed finger—she orders the Coral back to the Caribbean, despite her father’s earlier warning never to return.

It’s Luísa’s luckless fate that the only man who can help her is a blasted Inglés pirate hunter who’s more dead than alive and locked in a curse he doesn’t want lifted. Worse, his feral sensuality sparks a hunger she can’t ignore.

Xander Daltry hadn’t planned on kidnapping this wild woman—or succumbing to his uncontrollable desire for her. But he needs Luísa and the moonstone she wears around her neck to rescind a witch’s spell. His sister, long dead, and others like her have been cursed to remain in the mortal plane for eternity. Only the stone can set them free.

The only way to convince the reluctant pirate queen to help him is to withhold one small bit of the truth. For if she learns who really betrayed her father, the longing in her fiery eyes could easily turn to murderous wrath…


Mistress of the Stone is a paranormal romance reader’s haven. The author delivers the right about of romance and world building, and the way she describes the story you’ll feel like you're right there. You get not only a love story, but you also get a curse, shifters, ghost, gargoyles, witch and to top it all off, one sexy pirate and one hot pirate hunter.

This book had me hooked from start to finish. I don’t want to give out too much detail because this book is too good to spoil. I loved all the characters even the villain. I even felt sorry for him at times, but then at other times I really disliked him for what he was doing. I really enjoyed both Luisa and Xander, but there were times that I really wished Xander would have stepped up to the plate more and showed how much he really cared about Luisa, but do you ever get everything you want in a story. You can tell Luisa and Xander were destined to be together right from the start and that makes you really see the sparks fly each time they are together.

 I recommend this to any paranormal romance reader that loves a good, hot romance and lots of action.

Cover Re-Reveal: Snake in the Grass by Staci Hart

Snake in the Grass 
by: Staci Hart


The truth changes everything.

It’s round two of high stakes Love Connection on Olympus, and this time, everything has changed.

Ares is on deck, and Aphrodite is nervous, because as much as she loves to hook up with him, she doesn’t trust him as far as she could throw him, which isn’t very far. She never could resist him, not even when every part of her screamed that he was a liar, but after the last game, she’s seeing things in a new light, light that has cast shadows across her entire life.

Ares has a plan to keep Aphrodite, for good this time. He wants to win the game, but he’ll hold back, if that’s what it takes. He’s sitting on a chance that was thousands of years in the making, and he’ll do what he has to do to convince her to stay forever. The only thing that could stop him is the secret that he’s been keeping for eons. If she finds out, it will destroy everything.

Aphrodite picks Kat, a gun toting drag racer, and Ares decides on Dillon, a badass boxer who never loses. Both of their lives revolve around keeping their siblings safe, and they’ve sacrificed everything to make sure things stay that way. They are tough and loyal, fierce and determined, but they become each other’s weakness, even though they fight it, and even though it means danger for Kat and her sister.

Favorite reads of 2013 Claudy Conn Moon-Quicksliver



Title: Hungry Moon-Quicksilver
Author: Claudy Conn
Genre: Paranormal Romance
 Length: Novel
 Reviewed by: Laurie Rating- 5 Sexual- 2




Ravena MacAllister doesn’t want to admit what she is. She wants to continue pretending she’s just human … only human, like her mother, like her friends.

But she isn’t human.

Heartbreak and betrayal send her off rushing to Scotland, to a familiar haven where she has spent so many summers with her father, but she soon discovers that everything has changed.

From the moment she meets Quinn MacValdane, shock waves travel through him to her and back again, wrapping them in a tide of passion she had never dreamt possible. But if they are to have a future together, she must confront who and what she is, for she will need to call on the powers within her as she becomes embroiled in an adventure that will alter her life forever.

The time for pretending is over.



Quicksilver is a priceless gem among the paranormal romance genre. I simply loved every minute of reading this book. Claudy Conn did an outstanding job creating the world and characters. I loved how everything was explained in detail and I felt like I was right there in the middle of everything.

 You find everything from, wizards, druids, demons, shape-shifters and so much more in the story. This story has action, mystery, magic and a passionate romance.

 What I liked best was Quinn. Not only is he a wizard he is also a werewolf and not the type we normally read, you know just a regular wolf shifter. Nope not Quinn, he is not the really cute and cuddly dog type we read about all the time. However, with his Scottish accent and really hot looks when the full moon is not out he can really draw a lady LOL. Unfortunately Quinn ends up cursed and waits an eternity before one woman can save him. I want to address this sex.

There is not much sexual action in this story. You get a few good lengthy sex scenes but mostly you get some hot sexual tension. I really thought what was presented fit the story and characters well. I loved the HEA ending and hope to read the next book soon.

Review: Hand of Miriam by Eva Gordon



Title: Hand of Miriam (Bayla and the Golem #1)
Author: Eva Gordon
Source: Author Request
Genre: Steampunk Paranormal Romance
Length: Novel
Release Date: December 6, 2013
Reviewed by: Jasmyn

Rating - 3
Sexual - 2

On an archaeological expedition, Bayla Gideon, is widowed by a supernatural force and
branded with the Hand of Miriam or Knowing Eye. Threatened by evil, she awakens the golem; a mythical man of clay, who protected the Jewish community over three centuries ago. The golem, Gesher, is surprised. Freedom –by a beautiful, enchanting woman. His desire is to return to the celestial spheres and regain his status as an avenging angel. Yet, Bayla challenges his mind, body and soul. Would he risk his return to the heavens for her? Besides, dealing with the otherkind, mad inventors and an unrelenting matchmaking aunt, Bayla is equally determined to resist her steamy attraction to the striking fallen angel. Thrust into a malevolent war, which includes facing Jack the Ripper, they must resist the magnetic pull toward each other, while protecting the world from encroaching evil.

 Hand of Miriam is a great mix of steam punk and romance with just a twist of religion to keep it even more interesting.  Bayla Gideon has been marked with the ability to sense evil with a touch. Bayla is unique from women of her time in other ways as well.  She is an academic that loves to go on expeditions looking for antiquities.  One of her late husband's great prizes is a golem.  When Bayla's new abilities begin to lead to threats to her life she decides to give life to the golem, never realizing what his true history really is.

There is a huge storyline in this book - almost too much.  It involves the presence of Jack the Ripper - only his victims aren't only human.  He's been killing vampiresses as well (oh yes did I mention there are vampires, werewolves, ghouls, demons, all sorts of fun stuff).  Bayla and her golem, Gesher, are out to try and find out just what is going on - madness ensues with lots of fighting and lots of Gesher saving the day.  And all along the way they are slowly falling love - but if they follow their desires he will never be able to return heaven - major issue.

The story is how they deal with the baddies, resolve their love delimma, and end with a mostly HEA.  It is a series so there has to be more to the story somewhere.  The only downfall for me was there was one too many "endings".  I thought for sure she had written a fantastic ending that I loved, loved, loved, and then there were another 50 pages and another ending that just wasn't quite as satisfaying for me.  I think the extra bit was important to the overall storyline though.

 Rating- 5 Sexual- 2

Exerilla is a white witch.

Her father is a dark and dangerous warlock with an agenda to marry her to someone she despises. He has the power to do this before she reaches her majority, which will occur at Samhain, Halloween.

Her mother has a plan and against her daughter’s will, implements that plan, which sends Exerilla into the past, where she must remain until October 31st—months away. And magic is something she can’t use because her father could trace it to her.

Here is the problem, plans have a way of seeping from black and white into gray


I Love Claudy’s paranormal romances, they are always fresh and exciting to read. Lady X is a time travel paranormal romance that is very realistic.

 What I loved most was the way she ended the story. You come to a point where you’re thinking, there is no freaking way she is going to be able to pull this all together and clean up all of these loose ends, but she does and it suits the whole book. Exerilla (X) and Lord Hunter MacTorry, romance doesn’t start with sparks right off the bat but once they start flying its nonstop, until one of them Exerilla is left making a hard choice, that will leave one left behind in time desperately trying to find the other. I loved both X and Lord Hunters characters, they are both strong and are willing to do anything for the ones they love.

 I recommend this book for readers who love any of these paranormal, time travel and historical romances.

Review: Call Her Mine by Lydia Michaels

Title: Call Her Mine (The Order of the Vampyres, #4)
Author: Lydia Michaels
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Length: Novel

Rating- 5
Sexual- 3


Delilah Starling has never been a shy girl. The moment she sets eyes on Mr. Tall—Dark—and—Broody, she knows she’s going to have him. Sarcastic sexual banter leads to the best sex of her life—until he kills her.

Christian “Bastard” Schrock is an Amish immortal with no patience for social pleasantries. Rather than risking his demise, he takes what is rightfully his when he is called to his mate, an English female who owns a tattoo parlor and swears too much.

When Delilah wakes up on an Amish farm—not dead, but no longer mortal—she is outraged. Mr. Sexy-Pants has turned out to be a delusional maniac set on ruining her life, which he’s already stolen without her permission. Christian is at wit’s end with his belligerent, stubborn, mate. He demands obedience, but never has he faced such frustration as Ms. Delilah Starling. Worst of all, he’s falling in love with her.


Do you miss REAL alpha males in your PNRs? You know, the ones that take what they want, when they want it, and just don't give a damn? Well, Call Her Mine will bring you back to those golden days when powerful males said, "Mine!".

Don't get the wrong impression, though. The heroine, Delilah, is no pushover. Christian might take what he wants, but that doesn't mean Delilah meekly recieves what he's giving. She's an alpha in her own right and it makes the sparks fly.

My only complaint would be that the outside conflict (there's a baddie running around) was resolved a little too quickly. I, almost, wish that the side-line drama wouldn't have been there. Believe me, Christian and Delilah have enough of their own drama to keep the tension and laughs flowing.

If you haven't checked out The Order of the Vampyres series I can't recommend it enough. If you have been keeping up with this interesting cast of characters, then you're in for a treat! I think Call Her Mine is my favorite of the series so far :)

Favorite readers of 2013 Dani Harper First Bite




Title: First Bite (Dark Wolf, #1)
 Author: Dani Harper
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Length: Novel
 Reviewed by: Laurie Rating- 5 Sexual- 2
Geneva “Neva” Ross doesn’t want to die. But now that she’s been turned into a werewolf against her will, she’ll do anything to protect her family and friends…even if that means taking her own life.

After witnessing Neva’s leap from a high ledge, Travis Williamson—a Changeling with a dark past—uses his powers to save her life. He feels a connection to the strong-willed woman whose eyes flash that familiar Changeling green. While Neva is hospitalized, Travis risks everything to kidnap her, knowing the approaching full moon will put everyone in jeopardy.

Bickering constantly to hide their growing attraction, Travis and Neva run from the authorities…and from Neva’s sinister sire, Meredith de la Ronde. Meredith delights in creating new shape-shifters and compelling them to do her dark bidding; now Neva must join Meredith’s murderous wolf pack…or die.

Intensely suspenseful with deliciously sexy twists, this paranormal romance—the first in (the title of series)—intertwines sensual passion with an epic, thrilling battle between good and evil.


Dani has an awesome start to a new romance series and I believe this is her best book yet. I loved all of the characters, heck even the villain is awesome at being a true villain. This is a true example of keeping the right balance of romance, story and sex. Dani didn’t go overboard on either one.

 Neva is having nothing to do with being a werewolf so she sets out to do something about it by killing herself. Neva has a very good reason to do this and to be whining about the whole ordeal, heck even I would have been crying the blues if I was her shoes. It's not everyday someone close to you want's you dead or controlling you and when I mean controlling I mean you would have to kill others under their command. Look at it this way, someone has just change your life forever and changed it into something that is a killing machine, wouldn't you cry about it for a bit before you suddenly take control because you see it's the only hope you have? I know I would, but I guess not everyone is like me.

They think life is grand and they embrace everything bad that comes there way, with no whining. Whatever. As a paranormal romance reviewer I myself love the emotional roller-coaster the author took us on with Nava. I loved reading her denial and her embarrassing her fate. Neva takes her time to warm up to the Changeling ways but she has some excellent help with hot Travis by her side,that is when she’s not ditching him.LOL. Once she finds out what she really wants in life she'll stop at nothing to get Travis back, even if it means coming face to face with the danger she so much wanted to kill herself to keep away form. Travis isn’t a week hero he will risk his life to keep Neva safe from the evil that is after her, but he also knows when to back off and let someone else take lead. Together they both find love and danger in every corner.

 There are a few secondary characters introduced and I hope to read about them in the future. If you love paranormal romance this is one book not to be missed.

Aphrodite never loses, not when it comes to love.

Immortality has its perks and its downsides. Boredom, for one, is unavoidable, but instead of playing parcheesi, the gods devised a game that uses humans as pawns. Remember Shakespeare? That was Apollo. Bonnie and Clyde? Aphrodite versus Ares.

Aphrodite is on deck once again, and she’ll defend her domain of love as she works to get the humans together before the clock runs out, while her opponent tries to keep them apart.

Game one is against Apollo, and Aphrodite knows she has her work cut out for her when he chooses Dean, a brooding rock star man-whore who believes women can’t be trusted. Aphrodite decides on Lex, a perfect match for Dean, even though her heart is guarded, locked away tight. She’d never let anyone in. Not ever. Of course, she hasn’t met Dean.

But there’s always more at stake than just the game when you’ve lived for thousands of years. The Olympians are the original dysfunctional family, surviving eons of love and lust, betrayal and lies, as friends and enemies, through feuds and wars. From Ares, the douchebag, who’s forever trying to start a fight and get Aphrodite into bed, to Persephone, her best friend, who she can always count on for a healthy helping of bacon on a bad day, the gods will take you on a lighthearted trip as they mess with humans, laugh and fight, lose love and gain power.

Every princess should be kissed. And by a man who knows what he's doing. Beatricia had been enjoying just that with Farris Turner when she was caught.But running only drives her into the arms of a stranger. A man who wants to offer her one night together, to offer her the experience her life and duties in the city of Sun-Airor--a place set out of space and time--have denied her.It'll be her only chance before she's forced to enter a loveless marriage...but who exactly is her stranger? And what will kissing him reveal?







This one just didn't hit the spot for me.  While there were quite a few very hot scenes, there just wasn't enough storyline.  The story that was presented seemed to be an afterthought to the sex.  Because of this I just didn't sync with either character.  Beatricia is out for what seems to be a one night stand, but I never really understood why.

The ending was sweet, and it would have been nice if I had felt more about what was going on throughout the story.  If you're looking for more of an erotica book with a little extra backgrough though, this would be right up your alley.

Cover Reveal: Point of No Return by Tara Fox Hall

Title: Point of No Return (Promise Me Series #7)
Author: Tara Fox Hall
Publication Date: February 2014
Publisher (Indie): Melange Books




When Sarelle discovers Theo's love for Tasha is not all it seems, she breaks the spell, even as she fears the consequences. Dreaming with Theo again awakens old feelings, even as Devlin’s possessiveness increases when Sar is discovered to be pregnant. Influenced by her blood bond to Devlin and Danial, and her magical bond with Theo, Sar is determined to make the relationship with her lovers work. But can Sar trust her heart fully, much less her own desires?

Excerpt from Point of No Return:
Lash stood there waiting in the doorway, his eyes as flat as ever, his forked tongue flicking angrily.  He was dressed warmly all in black, save for a blood red scarf at his neck.

"What do you want?" Theo said gruffly.

"Sarelle," Lash hissed angrily, drawing out my name in a long sinuous sound.  "Devlin wants her at Hayden."

"I'm here," I said, trying to slide past Theo.  "I'm ready."

Theo blocked me, eyeing me frostily.  "No one said anything to me about it," he said stonily.

"No one need tell you anything, Cat," Lash hissed.  "You have no say."

"I have a say in Danial's property," Theo growled.  "I need to check with Danial before I let her leave."

"Then go check," Lash said baring his fangs.  "I'll wait inside."

"You'll wait outside," Theo said, and slammed the door in his face.

"Theo, he's right -"

Theo grabbed a hold of my arm and hauled me into Danial's bedroom door.  "Danial" Theo said, pounding on the door loudly.  "Lash is here.  He said he's here for Sar."

Danial came to the door dressed.  "Theo, it's okay," he said calmly.  "It was good of you to check, but I knew Sar was headed to Hayden tonight.  Let her leave."

"You're just going to let her go to him?" Theo said, his tone dagger-filled.  "I can smell that you were just together."

Danial gave him a slow smile of gratification.  "Devlin has rights to Sar now, just as I do, whether you like it or not.  She'll often leave one of us to go to the other, something that doesn't invoke my jealousy, as it's given under our Oath.  Reconcile yourself to this situation, or leave my employ."

"As soon as the ranking's settled, I probably will," Theo replied curtly.  "And I'll be taking Elle with me."

Danial's eyes flashed red.  "We've been over this.  If you want to leave with your woman, you're free to go.  But Elle is staying here."

"Then stop the digs," Theo shot back.  "None of us planned how this all worked out.  Elle is my daughter.  If you want her to stay here, then we need to work together."  He glanced over at me, then back to Danial.  "I don't want to see anyone hurt."

"He isn't going to hurt her," Danial said patiently.  "He loves her."

"Devlin loves nothing but himself, and you now it," Theo growled.

Danial gave me a gentle kiss.  "Have a good time.  Call tomorrow from Dev's, and tell me when I can expect you to return.  If it's a few days or more, that's no problem.  I'm neck deep in cases."

"I will," I said uneasily.

Danial nodded, then went back into his bedroom.

"You must have worn him out," Theo said sarcastically.  "He's right about his work -"

I tried to push past him.  He blocked me.

"Let me past, Theo."

"Sar, don't do this," Theo said, grabbling my arm.  "He'll hurt you without Danial there to mediate -"

"I've been alone with him before," I said meaningfully.  "He didn't do anything to me I didn't want.

"Didn't he?"  Theo said just as meaningfully.  "Give him time.  He will."

"It's really not your business anymore, is it?"  I said mockingly.  "Why does it matter to you, anyway?"

The door suddenly banged open.  Lash glared at the both of us with his flat eyes as he walked in.

"You brok the lock," Theo bitched.

Lash threw some money on the floor.  "We are late already, Sarelle," he hissed.  "Get moving. Now."

Everything happened at once.  I went to move past Theo, he put out his hand to stop me, and something slid through the air with a sharp crack.  Theo went rigid, grabbing at his neck, choking, his eyes bulging, the end of Lash's whip tight around his throat.
