    Do you love Vampyres and Shifters?
    Ever wish they could be friends instead of foes?
    Well, if that’s the case, The Angel’s Kiss is the book for you.

    When Lyssa discovers her fiancé munches on his bodyguard to survive, and learns mankind’s survival rests on the shoulders of the supernatural creatures to whom she’s mated, what’s a girl to do but join in the chaos?

    Sound like your kind of read?
    It’s certainly mine. That’s why I wrote it.
    The notion that Vampyres and Shifters could be more than just enemies intrigued me, and so, I created a universe with a very unusual way of making sure that happened…
    The Angel’s Kiss explains it all.

    Cover Artist: April Martinez

    When Lyssa discovers her fiancé’s idea of a la carte dining is munching on Dima Vasin, his bodyguard, she’s more pissed off at the fact she has to share him than the life-altering discovery Vampyres and Lykaens truly exist.

    Niko and Dima have been seeking their mate ever since the war between their races came to an end two centuries ago. Now Lyssa’s in their arms, all they’re focused on is making her accept her role in their lives, and, the honeymoon in Maui. But Fate has other plans.

    The Fomor, an evil race of Celts, are at war with mankind. A war no one but the Gods, the Sidhe, and the malevolent creatures are even aware of! Banished to the depths of the oceans, the Fomor have sought their freedom for milennia. With every escapee from their icy prison, humanity is tarnished a little more, the evil in man’s nature exploited for the worse.

    The sins of mankind and the destruction of the planet fall on the Fomor’s shoulders, and it’s up to the Gods’ footsoldiers, the Lykes and Pyres, to save Earth and its residents before crisis strikes.

    But the clock is ticking, and for Lyssa, Dima, and Niko, it might just be too little, too late…

  • Overtime by Toni Aleo

    My Review
    Jordie has not had the perfect life.  Far from it.  He turned to alcohol to numb the pain of traumas.  The only thing that had kept him from going completely crazy has been hockey.  Since his injury, his drinking got bad, but when he left the one person who has ever truly loved him, he has gotten seriously worse.  So bad that that the Assassins give him an ultimatum, rehab or he is cut from the team.  Having no choice, he goes to rehab.  It isn’t until he realizes he can’t live without Kacey and the birth of his Goddaughter that he truly puts his heart into getting better.
    Kacey had her heart broken in more pieces than anyone knows.  She puts up a good front, but inside she is not whole person everyone thinks she is.  When Jordie comes back into her life, she is not sure if she should give into her feelings, or protect her heart.  
    This ia a very touching story.  It is everything I expect from a Toni Aleo novel.  I laughed, I cried, and had my heart touched. 
    Synopsis
    Down and out with an injury keeping him away from the game, Assassins’ defenseman Jordie Thomas lives for the blades of his skates on the ice and the feeling of oblivion off it. With no choice but to heal, he’s forced away from the sport that runs through his veins. With everything at stake and darkness setting in, he quickly finds himself spiraling even further out of control. As his life begins to come crashing down around him and his contract with the Nashville Assassins on the line, he’s given an ultimatum. Ready or not, Jordie is forced to face his past, the fears that consume him, and the one woman he let walk away.
     
    Kacey King had her professional dreams come true, yet her heart was battered and broken. With an Olympic gold medal around her neck, she’s ready to look forward to the future but without the one man she wanted in it. She’s missing the key pieces of her heart she left months ago with the only person who was capable of destroying it, causing her to falter in all her plans to move on.
     
    In the game of life, there are winners and losers, and neither Jordie nor Kacey want to be on the losing bench. If only Jordie could convince Kacey he’s a changed man and that he wants her right by his side as his MVP for the biggest and best parts of a life they build together. With emotions running high and the game on the line, can two proud people find happiness with each other, or will their hearts and souls be left in the cold? Will they see that sometimes having someone by your side who knows the good, bad, and broken is better than going it alone and losing everything through the back of the net? They are out of time on the game clock and fighting for the win of their lives.
     
    But overtime was made for an Assassin like Jordie.

  • Trouble Walked In by Michelle Roth

    Troublewalkedin-evernightpublishing-jayAheer2015-banner2

     

     

    Hi there, everyone! I’m Michelle Roth and I’m here to introduce my latest release, Trouble Walked In [The Forsaken Few 1]. This story started as a submission for the Bad Alpha Anthology but quickly grew out of control with regards to word count. There was no way I was going to be able to tell the story I wanted to in a measly 10,000 words!

    Once it was clear that I wasn’t going to be able to tell the story I really wanted to tell, I decided the book was more important than the anthology. It became MUCH easier from then on! I decided that rather than just a wolf shifter story that I would make this about something larger. Lorelei, Florida was born.

    Each forsaken by their own kind, a small community of shifters from all walks of life have come together to form an unbreakable bond that defies the laws of nature. Both the hunters and the hunted stand side by side to protect themselves from all who would threaten their way of life.

    Troublewalkedin-evernightpublishing-jayAheer2015-smallpreviewThis is Ronan and Moira’s story…

    The moment Moira Devereaux walks into his bar, Shapeshifter Ronan Kelly knows she’s going to be trouble. No matter how tempting she is, he won’t risk the safety of his makeshift pack. He has every intention of sending her on her way until he hears her compelling story.

    When Moira’s father, the mayor of Lorelei, tries to force her to wed a man she doesn’t know, she runs to one place he won’t follow. The local shifter bar. Nothing could have prepared her for the immediate attraction she feels for the owner, Ronan.

    In a moment of weakness, Ronan offers her a job and a place to stay despite his misgivings. No one is more shocked than he is when he discovers that she’s his mate. Will he be able to convince her that he’s worth taking a risk on or will he be forced to let her go?

    Excerpt

    Twenty minutes later, his energy restored, he wandered into the kitchen. He grinned when he found Moira making a sandwich. “Hey, gorgeous,” he said, feeling lighter than he had in a very long time. He leaned in and pressed a kiss to her neck.Hungry?” she asked, tilting her head to the side. When he continued to press light kisses against her skin, she set the package of cold cuts down on the counter. Seconds later, she leaned back against him and gave a soft hum of pleasure.Not for food,” he murmured, nipping at the soft bit of skin just below her earlobe.

    Moira pressed her hips back against him and playfully asked, “What are you hungry for then?”

    He grabbed her and held her back against him. Then he moved his mouth so that it hovered just above her ear. “You know exactly what I want, cupcake. And you’re gonna give it to me.”

    Oh, am I?” she teased, moaning softly when he began to rock his hips against hers. “What if I just wanted to eat this sandwich and go to bed?”

    His hands slipped up to cup her breasts through the thin cotton tank top she wore. Stroking her nipples, he waited until she shivered against him. “I’ll make you a deal.”

    The voice trembled with need when she asked, “What kind of deal?”

    If I reach down into your panties, and I don’t find you soaking wet,” he said, his hands trailing down her belly to work at the button of her jean shorts. “Then, by all means, have your sandwich and go to bed.”

    Okay,” she agreed, rocking her hips back against him, her feigned disinterest long gone.

    But if I do find your pussy as soaked as I think I’m gonna,” he continued, “then I own this body for the rest of the night. Sound fair?”

    Moira gave a needy whimper in response. “Fair enough.”

    You sure about that, cupcake?” he asked, his own voice rough with need. “I’m not going to go easy on you.”

    No longer able to manage the pretense of disinterest, Moira whispered, “I don’t want you to.”

    You don’t know what you’re asking for.” He groaned, his fingers slowly dragging the zipper of her shorts down. At her shuddering breath, he slipped his hand inside her panties and said, “As I suspected. Cupcake, you’re not going to sleep any time soon. You better have the sandwich, though. You might need your strength.”

    Fuck the sandwich,” Moira moaned. “Touch me.”

  • Unlikely Allies by C.C. Koen

     

    My Review

    This was a touching story with laughter and even had me tearing up at points.  People say that children and animals know a person at a soul level.  This seems to be so when it comes to Cecily and Herbert.

    Out of anywhere Herbert could have scurried into, he did so into Rick’s office.  Cecily came in looking for him.  When Cecily waltzed into his office looking for her rodent, he had no idea that she would waltz right into his heart.  Once her mom, Maggie, comes to find Cece, Rick knows he is in real trouble.

    Maggie has been through a lot.  Moved in with her sister, she is working nights for a security firm whiled during the day she attends culinary school.  When her daughter wanders into an office, she had no idea that fate would step in and her life would never be the same again.

    I love how this book takes us through the precious meeting that leads to a wonderful love story.  I love how sex is not the prominent part of this story.  But most of all, I love how we follow the couple and Cece all the way through Cece is old enough to go to work herself.  I don’t feel like there is any holes in the love story of Rick and Maggie.  I am hoping that we get to know Kat’s love story next.

    Synopsis
    What happens when a single mom’s four-year-old daughter falls in love with Mr. Right and she doesn’t?

    Maggie Tyson’s rule: no bad boys. Her incarcerated ex-husband broke her of that attraction. Needing to escape his threats and the scrutiny of the people in her hometown, Maggie relocates to New York City. Determined to not make the same mistakes, she has a mile-long list of dos and don’ts. Unfortunately, her daughter, Cecily, doesn’t like to follow them. When Cecily wanders away from her and right into Rick Stone’s office, Maggie knows he’s the exact type she’s been trying to avoid. Can she resist him or will she succumb to his willful charm?

    Rick Stone’s rule: bed them don’t wed them. Running a multibillion dollar business doesn’t leave him with much time to do anything else, particularly with an overbearing grandfather breathing down his neck. But when a man works hard, he needs to play even harder. Voted America’s most eligible bachelor, Rick doesn’t have any problems getting women into his bed—except one.

    Two auburn beauties stumble into his life.  One will break his heart.  The other—heal it.  Will he love or leave them?
     

    pleading for anything and everything she could give.

    My Review

    Gavin is a member of the rock band Sphere of Irony. He always receives threatening letters, heck many stars do in one way or another, however, he now has a stalker that is leaving “gifts” no one would ever want. The label hires Mitch to help figure out who is stalking and threatening Gavin.

    Gavin wakes a part of Mitch he has denied for a long time. Once together, Gavin will rock more than just his music, he will rock Mitch’s world.

    It was interesting to watch Gavin and Mitch come to grips with their sexuatlity and their budding relationship. The last chapter was my favorite, because I am a sucker for a happy ending and that Mitch gets his song.

    Synopsis

    All Gavin Walker, bass player for the multi-platinum selling band, Sphere of Irony, wants to do is surf, play music, and occasionally get laid. The problem is that Gavin has a stalker. A potentially deadly one. The threats he receives always mention something about Gavin being gay, which isn’t public knowledge since the record label wants to keep it quiet.

    Mitch Hale used to track serial killers for the FBI. A live-changing incident led him to quit the bureau and start his own company providing computerized security for Los Angeles’ wealthiest people. Mitch doesn’t know anyone when he moves across the country from D.C. to California, and all he has for companionship is a pathetic string of failed relationships with women.

    When Gavin’s manager hires Mitch to find the stalker, the men instantly hate each other. Despite the constant fighting, attraction between the two blazes hot, confusing the former FBI agent. Spending time with Gavin forces Mitch reflect on what he’s denied about himself for the last ten years. Listening to Mitch’s plan to catch a madman thrusts Gavin’s personal life out in the open for the entire world to see.

    Can Gavin and Mitch stop fighting long enough to stop a stalker before someone gets hurt? Or will they stubbornly resist the feelings that develop when they’re forced to work together?

    This is book 3 in a 4 part series. It is a spin-off of the Famous Series. These can be read as standalones.
