Touch of Evil *reposted due to release date*

Touch of Evil C.T. Adams & Cathy Clamp

In a world where vampires are parasites called the Trall that shorten your life when they take you as host, being thrall is something most regular people avoid. Psychic Kate Reilly avoids it harder than most. Even though she has been designated 'not prey' after killing a Thrall Queen six years ago she once again finds herself being hunted. For only a strong psychic can be the Trall Queen and she's the dying queens first choice.

Kate not only has to dodge multiple thrall attacks without acting like prey and loosing her 'not prey' status but protect the girl who is the queens second choice at successor. Her ex, the guy who turned her over to the thrall six years ago, wants her back. A sexy werewolf fireman has moved into the apartment downstairs and is using every ounce of sex appeal he possess to draw her to him.

Maybe she'll end up with a guy, if only she survives the week.

I absoloutly loved this book even reading it for the second time, just like the first time I am dying to see what happens next. This is an excellent paranormal read with characters that are rock solid and real enough to make you worry for them. This book is a definite keeper.

Desire After Dark

Desire After Dark by Amanda Ashley

When a serial killer comes to town Vicki Cavendish knows she must be careful, the killer draining women of their blood targets women with red hair and green eye's just like hers but caution doesn't stop her inviting the stunning stranger into her home.

Victoria changes all that with her acceptance and love. Torn between leaving her to a normal human life and staying to protect what is his Antonio is forced to make peace with a hunter to ensure the safety of the woman he loves.

Once you get past the fact that Vicki falls into the to stupid to live category (I mean come on there's a killer in town this guy was seen with the victims LAST and she still lets him walk her home and invites him inside...sheesh) this story meets the standards set by previous books in the series. Revisiting the couples from previous books brought a nostalgic glow to the books ending while an eccentric ghost brought history and humor to the plot.

A Taste for Control

A Taste for Control by Patrice Michelle

Duncan Mordoor lived in seclusion, his strong psychic gifts making it hard to be around others. A life lived in total control filled with vampires who avoided him and humans who bored him, his only release found through his music. Beautiful melody's and spectacular public performances make him a local performing star but with so many people trying to break his self imposed solitude wil Duncan be able to resist them all?

Seeking proof of the existence of vampires, Rose Sinclair PI never thought she'd find it. Until a vampire kidnapped her and tied Rose to his bed. Naked and terrified Rose is glad to be rescued especially since her rescuer is sexy if somewhat strange. Together the pair must journey to discover their pasts before history destroys them or tears them apart. When each discovery is a foundation rocking shock how long before this pair find themselves drawn permanently together?

I think this is the best of the series featuring the enigmatic Duncan who gets knocked for six when his psychic gifts don't work on the woman of his dreams. Duncan relied so heavily on his gifts to interact with people that he had no idea how to react to a woman who was a total blank slate to him which caused some truly comedic moments. Rose was a strong vivacious woman who reacted better than expected to being tied up naked in a vampires room. Practical and sensual is a very sexy combination in my humble opinion and makes you want to follow the story further, with so many other extrodinary hero's available I can only hope that Ms Michelle chooses to continue writing in this dynamic world.

Book one of the series is A Taste for Passion the second book is A Taste for Revenge.

A Taste for Revenge

A Taste for Revenge by Patrice Michelle

After the vicious murder of her vampire hunting father Jacqueline 'Jax' Markson swore vengence and began the hunt. With a mystery informants help Jax keeps close on the heels of the responsible vamp when she runs across another hunter trying to steal her kill.

Ian 'the Enforcer' Mordoor is to take over leadership of the Bruen clan of vampires. First though, to prove his worth, he must bring a rogue vampire to justice. Together Jax and Ian battle evil to stop the pointless murder of his kind and hers, but how will Jax react when she finds out that she's begun to care for the very thing her father fought his whole life to destroy.

This second book in Ms Michelle's 'Taste' series comes through just as powerfully as it's predecesor. I found Jax to be a strong heroine capable of defending both herself and her man if necesarry. Watching as she put aside her grief to find the creature that tortured her father was very empowering, it was wonderful watching Ian trying to get past defenses she'd built against his kind believing them all to be evil.

The first book in this series is A Taste for Passion and the third book is A Taste for Control.

Erotic and exciting, Ms Michelle has created a perfect blend of hot sex and suspenseful drama. With a well planned world and dynamic, realistic characters that bring the story to life I found myself quickly enthralled by this first book in the 'taste' series and eagerly sit down to read A Taste for Revenge' and A Taste for Control.

Hot in Here

Hot in Here by Susan Lyons

Reporter Jenny Yuen was always after a good story and attending the competition to select the twelve firemen for the calendar gave her the opportunity for a great story and a chance for the awesome foursome to get together and oggle some hot bods. But when a sexy fireman did a sensual tap rather than the bump and grind that had set the tone for the night Jenny was so distracted by his sheer sexuality she forgot to breathe let alone snap pictures. Determined to 'interview' Scott Jackman aka Mr February Jenny heads backstage, using her powerful personality to draw his attention Jenny gets granted her interview now it's up to her to see where she can make it lead.

Scott Jackman was a probie, pushed into the competition by the crew at the firehall he was just glad to have won so they wouldn't have another reason to give him crap. All the hot women hitting on him were just a bonus and after how unexpectedly arousing he found performing he defiantly wanted to take one of them up on their offer. Preferably one of the hot busty blonds, but when a tiny asian woman flicks her hair at him while asking for an interview Scott finds himself drawn to her and her cheeky navel piercing.

When absolutely mind blowing sex results from their encounter Jenny decides to take a leaf from Suzanne's book and create the fantasy rules, after all it's not like she could take Scott home to her ultra traditional chinese family. So whether its her creating a fantasy for him or Scott going all out to fulfill her fantasy's she works to keep the serious stuff out, unfortunately her heart doesn't know the rules.

Is it Hot in Here? It most certainly is. Following the precedent set by Champagne Rules, Hot in Here is full of hotly erotic scenes and beautifully emotional bonding. The awesome foursome is back again to give support and encouragement to each other as they journey towards friendship and love with the men they thought were good for nothing but sex. Susan Lyons just gets better so I know I'm not the only one who will be eager to read more of this fabulous authors work. I will definatly be looking forward to Anne and Rina's storys as well as their fabulously erotic men.

Champagne Rules

Champagne Rules by Susan Lyons

One sunny afternoon in Crete Suzanne Brennan shared a magical moment and fantastic sex with a stranger. Although they never exchanged names Suzanne has never forgotten him, nor found any other man to measure up. So with a little encouragement from her friends Suzanne sets out to find her mystery lover again.

Jaxon Navarre had never forgotten the sexy mermaid who'd rocked his world in Crete. Through a marriage and divorce she remained his fantasy girl, but with no name she was impossible to find, not that he had time for a relationship anyhow. But when he found an add on the internet, one that suggested she was looking for more sexual fun, he couldn't resist answering. Perhaps given more time he'd be able to work her out of his system.

Together Suzanne and Jaxon create the Champagne Rules, rules designed to keep their sexual relationship fresh and fizzy by stopping the conversation dipping into the mundane versions of their lives. Will this creative couple be able to stick to the rules or will their real lives intrude upon their sexual interludes?

The absolute first thing you notice about this book is the hot sex, not ususally the first thing you notice I hear you say, that's because normally books don't start with hot, panty dampening sex. What a fantastic beginning you get really drawn into the couple and then they separate. Introduce the awesome foursome, Suzannes friends who encourage and support her in all her endeavourers. Jenny, Ann and Rina help Suzanne to locate Jaxon and in the process ender themselves to you. Good thing Susan Lyons is giving them each their own books. A journey mixed with tender moments and steamy sex follows as the pair struggle with the realization that they are perfect for each other. Watching them deal with IM and phone sex as well as the real page melting and generally semi public sexual encounters will keep you turning the pages until you get to the end, and trust me you will want more.

Hot sex, best friend bonding over the rehash and a sexy twin who comes out to play when Jaxon comes to town what more can you ask from a book? Nothing, and in my opinion that makes Champagne Rules a keeper.

Autographed copies are available at Rosemarys Romance Books.

Sequel to Champagne Rules is Hot in Here available in August
