Leila and Vlad are back…And there is trouble in paradise. Turns out, it’s not easy being the human girlfriend to one of the most powerful vampire rulers in the world. He’s domineering, chauvinistic, emotionally unavailable…Leila has had enough. She decides that if Vlad the Impaler can’t give her what she needs in a relationship, she’s going to walk away…And she walks right into the hands of his enemies.

Can Leila and Vlad find a way to work out their differences so she can be happy and safe once again? Will the evil forces finally succeed in ending her life or kidnapping her to use her psychic gifts in their favor? Will Leila’s mortal body survive everything she puts it through?

Twice Tempted,  by Jeaniene Frost, is the next book in the Night Prince series, the first of which was called Once Burned. If you haven’t read the first book, it’s highly recommended that you do. Anyone who loves paranormal romance will want to give Jeaniene Frost’s books (she has other series too), a try on for size. Readers who like Pamela Palmer, Lynsay Sands, Kim Harrison, and Laurell K. Hamilton (and many more similar paranormal romance writers) will especially enjoy this series.

Vampires, Werewolves, Angels, Fallen Angels, Demons, Witches, Fairies, Pixies, Gods and Goddesses, the genre of paranormal romance, which took the world by storm some years ago, is still going strong, with a devoted following. Here are some authors and some of their 2012 releases, for those of you who try to keep up.

Rogue Rider by Larissa Ione

Posted in Erotica, Paranormal Romance, RomanceTagged , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

roguerider-200x321Rogue Rider, by Larissa Ione, is Book 4 of Lords of Deliverance series, which is made up of Eternal Rider, Immortal Rider, and Lethal Rider.   The series is about the 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse, (actually 3 horsemen and one horsewoman), born to bring on, or end, the Apocalypse, depending on the prophecy in play and the translators…These immortal beings have superhuman strength and very bad tempers…Not people you should mess with. As you follow the series, these unstoppable beings, one by one, learn the meaning of true love and find a more noble path to their destiny, sending a few bad guys back to hell along the way.

Rogue Rider is about Reseph, the Horseman responsible for Pestilence on earth, who goes from good to evil and back again, in a constant struggle as the power tempts him to turn to the dark side and join Lucifer in taking over heaven. He wakes up with no memory of who he is, and Jillian Cardiff finds him in the snow on her property. She helps him back to her house and feeds him, and she decides to help him figure out who he is and what he was doing out in a snowstorm. She has no idea that he is immortal or anything other than a VERY sexy stranger with amnesia. As they become friends, the sexual tension between them becomes almost unbearable, until they finally give in to the lust they share. But Lucifer is still trying to take over the world and demons are running loose on earth in the meantime. Reseph will have to figure out who he is and how to fight his own internal demons, then take down the enemy threatening his new life and his family. Can he overcome the evil once and for all?

This novel is a paranormal romance, and it definitely borders on the erotica side of the spectrum. It’s very graphic, both violently and sexually, and the language is very colorful. If you think you can handle some very sexual demons and fallen angels, this series (and Rogue Rider) will not disappoint. The audiobook format is also excellent if you like to listen to your smutty romance…But don’t drive off the road in distraction when things get steamy!

Shadow of Night by Deborah Harkness

Posted in Historical Romance, Paranormal Romance, Romance, Urban FantasyTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Diana Bishop is back in the second installment in the All Souls Trilogy-the first book of which was called A Discovery of Witches and was insanely popular among paranormal romance readers. In Shadow of Night, Diana and the sexy vampire geneticist Matthew Clairmont have time traveled back to Elizabethan England to find the famous manuscript, Ashmole 782,  that started the saga in the first novel. Diana and Matthew must get the manuscript to keep it out of the wrong hands, and every supernatural creature wants the book for his kind, and is willing to take out Diana and Matthew in the process-but the hero and heroine are determined to save the supernatural world by preserving the book and the current status quo between the species.

Christopher Marlowe, William Shakespeare, Queen Elizabeth, and MANY other historical figures make their way into the plot of the story, so if you love historical fiction, you will be tickled by the references made and the excellent attention to detail that the author, Deborah Harkness, is well-known for. If you read the first novel, you won’t want to miss the second, and if you haven’t, I suggest you start from the beginning!

Readers who enjoyed The Physick Book of Deliverance Dane, by Katherine Howe, and The Witch’s Daughter, by Paula Brackston, will love the A Discovery of Witches and Shadow of Night. Paranormal romance with a touch of history and elements of magic with hints of time travel….

Darkest London Series by Kristen Callihan

Posted in Paranormal Romance, Romance, Urban FantasyTagged , , , , , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Paranormal romance lovers (you know who you are), you have probably run through Laurell K. Hamilton, Kim Harrison, Sherrilyn Kenyon, Lynsay Sands, the works…And you may even be wondering if the genre has much else to squeeze out. Kristen Callihan has written a new series, The Darkest London series, which will be a pleasant surprise. Especially if you are a lover of all things British-this series is set in London (obviously) during the Victorian era. But the London in Callihan’s series is a London ripe with paranormal beings who lurk in the shadows and hide from polite society.

The first novel in the series, Firelight, is about a young woman who marries a Lord by arrangement to settle her father’s debts…A lord who wears a mask and has a mysterious past. Can Miranda learn to love this stranger? Will she learn his secrets? Someone is murdering gentlemen in the night streets of London-is Lord Archer, her new husband, involved somehow?

The second novel in the series, Moonglow, is about a young widow who is being pursued by something dark and evil-something murderous. Women who wear her perfume are dropping dead all over the city, and a sexy nobleman has decided to help keep her safe until the demon is captured…But will Daisy be safe from him?

There are more novels to come in this series, which many readers will find addicting. If you liked Gail Carriger’s Parasol Protectorate series, you will NOT want to miss the Darkest London series by Kristen Callihan. Hachette Audio has come out with Firelight and Moonglow on Audio, as well, and those of you who enjoy listening to your paranormal romance should pick them up today-and they are steamy, so if you are prude, be warned!

God Save the Queen by Kate Locke

Posted in Paranormal Romance, Steampunk, Urban FantasyTagged , , , , , , , , Leave a comment

Paranormal Romance meets Steampunk in the first in the Immortal Empire series, staring Xandra, a Royal Guard for her majesty whose sister has just gone missing. In her determination to find out the truth, this saucy british half-vamp faces Goblins, Werewolves, Vampires, and more…And she can’t quite decide who wants her dead among them. Friends and enemies have so much in common-hunger for human flesh being on the list.

Surprise alliances shake Xandra to her core, and a discovery of a secret underground group set out to overthrow the Aristocracy, a sexy werewolf pack leader, and a very creepy Goblin prince are only the beginning of the head-spinning violence and intrigue that fills the pages of this novel.

If you loved The Parasol Protectorate series, by Gail Carriger, then without a doubt, you should pick up this novel immediately. If you think that a British “Anita Blake” sounds like something you might like to try out, the fantasy world created by Kate Locke is elaborate and well thought-out. If you are not really a fan of either “steampunk” or “paranormal romance” then it probably won’t be your “cup of tea”. Pick up God Save the Queen today, if you think you can handle it!

The audiobook is also an EXCELLENT option for those of you who like to listen to paranormal romance. I listened to it while I was painting my house and enjoyed every minute.

Once Burned by Jeaniene Frost

Posted in Paranormal RomanceTagged , , , , , 4 Comments

Paranormal Romance lovers, your prayers have been answered.

Leila is a circus performer with a few special gifts. She is a psychic who can see your worst sin upon physical contact, and she can channel electicity, even to the extent that she can kill with her power. She has lived in relative anonymity, traveling with the circus, where any strange events can be passed off as showmanship and eccentricity.  Her best friend, Marty, is a vampire, and he has been helping to keep her gifts a secret for many years. But one day, Leila meets a couple, and when she brushes against one of them, she realizes that the husband has learned that she is having an affair and intends to murder her and dispose of her body in the wilderness. The crime is prevented, but suddenly she is famous…And this is dangerous for her, especially in vampire communities, where a psychic’s gifts could be put to use helping them to find, and kill, enemies.

In very little time, Leila has been kidnapped by vampires who want to kill the alpha vampire of all vampires, Vlad Tepesh (yes, Vlad the Impaler). She attempts to find him and finds herself talking to him in her thoughts. They have a psychic connection and he agrees to rescue her from her kidnappers…But there’s a catch. She will now be taken into custody by Vlad and his entourage until his enemies have been smoked out and destroyed..For her own safety, of course. So Leila finds herself sleeping in a castle in Romania, surrounded by vampires, and against her own better judgment, finding Vlad the Impaler to be sortof, well, SEXY. She is also finding that he can help her harness her powers and use them as a brutal weapon against enemies.

Before she knows it, Leila has become kindof a badass. And she has revenge in mind against the vampire who wants her for himself. So the hunt begins…

Once Burned is one of the more violent paranormal romance novels I have read, more like Laurell K. Hamilton’s Anita Blake books, or Anne Rice’s darker take than Twilight or other more cozy vampire novels. If you don’t like sheer violence, you may be put-out by some of the more gorey details…It’s also very sexy. This novel is the first in Jeaniene Frost’s Night Prince Series. Fanatics, don’t miss this one!

A Blood Seduction by Pamela Palmer

Posted in Paranormal RomanceTagged , , , Leave a comment

Paranormal romance lovers won’t want to miss this new novel in Pamela Palmer’s new “Vamp City” series, “A Blood Seduction”. Quinn Lennox is a research technician who has always been just a little different. She sees things that no one else sees, her clothes seem to change colors when she drives through rainbow-like beams throughout the city, and she is beginning to thing she is losing her mind.

When Quinn and her brother Zack go looking for a friend who has disappeared, and end up wandering into some kind of alternate universe that looks a lot like Washington DC, things start to get even more insane. The city is populated by VAMPIRES, and Quinn and Zack are on the dinner menu. They are attacked, and when Quinn wakes up, she is in someone else’s home, tied to a bed, and her brother is nowhere to be found. A sexy, dominant vampire named Arturo has decided to make her his bed slave, and despite the fact that he is very enticing, she has one thing on her mind: escaping to find and rescue her brother, wherever he is.

There is more to Quinn than even she realizes, however, because the vampires seem to know something that she doesn’t. They inform her that she is a sorceress and she will be forced to help them save Vamp City from destruction or be tortured to within an inch of her life until she complies. Arturo tries to keep the bad vampires away from her, but when everyone wants a taste of the sorceress, Quinn has very little time to do much besides trying to stay alive…And fight off Arturo’s wandering hands and intoxicating kisses.

Will Quinn find and save her brother? Will she escape Vamp City? Will she finally give in to Arturo’s cajoling? Find out for yourself when you pick up A Blood Seduction in stores today! Readers who love Laurell K Hamilton and Kim Harrison won’t want to miss Pamela Palmer!
