Brought to my attention by Dixie:
“I was wondering if you could add the “Tales of an Extraordinary Girl” book series by Gena Showalter.”
You bet Dixie! This one looks right up my alley. π
About the series:
Earth, Wind and Fire aren’t just a band anymore!
Used to be my greatest achievement was holding a job more than three days. Now suddenly I can shoot fireballs, chill your drink, or blow-dry your hair at fifty paces with a blink of my eye!
It all started when this crazy scientist dropped something in my Grande Mocha Latte. Of course I got wicked sick. Next morning I’m waking up with this total hottie bending over me. He tells me 1) his name’s Rome Masters, 2) he’s a government agent and 3) I can control the four elements with a thought.
He seems even less pleased by my (apparently irreversible) transformation than I am . . . Because now he’ll have to kill me.
A twenty-four year old barista Β develops unexpected superpowers over the four elements. Β She’s now hunted by super sexy Paranormal Studies and Investigation agent Rome Masters, who’s got a secret of his own…
- Playing with Fire
- Twice as Hot (Hqn)
- Possibly a third book – (author says: “Right now, nothing is in the works. However, I have an idea for the third story and would really love to write it. So, to answer the question, maybe. :)”)
Loved each and every one of these! Especially because I spend hours upon hours in coffee shops and nothing cool ever gets dropped into my drink! Sexy, funny, and totally kick a$$…. Yay for adding these to your list! (probably not the best review I’ve ever written, but I was so stoked when I saw this post this is the best I could come up with)
I have both of the books in the series. I LOVED them. You have romance, sex, thrills and good laughs. Both books are great!!! I have been waiting and hoping that she would right another in this series but still nothing. But soo worth reading.
I LOVE these books! When I first discovered Gena Showalter, I went on a HUGE kick and bought all her available books! I’ve yet to be disappointed. Belle and Rome are the characters you continue to root for throughout the series! And the twist in the 2nd book — I was so frustrated waiting and hoping for it to work itself out!!! If you’re looking for a fun, easy and sexy read — definitely pick up these books or any of Gena’s books.
Great series π
I read this series a while back and it’s still one of my favorites. The only drawback to reading this series is that it is all but dropped after the second book. IMO, this series is Showalter’s greatest series.
Wow… you guys have me excited. Does #2 end on a cliffhanger? I suppose not since she mentions no real idea if there will be a 3rd book…
