My Sister Is a Werewolf
Cute and fun (and really really HOT!!)! I always feel like I can relate to Kathy’s characters. Unlike many of the paranormal books I’ve been reading lately, her characters aren’t as “ancient” and still retain many of their very human qualities. They continue to concern themselves with mainstream human lifestyles, are emotional, and experience a range of insecurities, that of which us “mortals” can comprehend. And, what’s more, they fall in love with “mere mortals” too!

Book Review – The Darkly Luminous Fight for Persephone Parker by Leanna Renee Hieber
The Darkly Luminous Fight for Persephone Parker
I received this book from the author, and I must say, the second installment in Percy’s saga is just as beautifully written as the first. Exciting, dramatic and romantic, it will take you away to a world of intrigue, while simultaneously having you laugh out loud as you bond with the jovial characters.
In the last installment, the mystery of Percy’s past was revealed, along with how she is emotionally linked to Alexi. The revelations continue in this book, uncovering details from how they came to be, and how The Guard has progressed through time.
Book Review – Gentlemen Prefer Succubi by Jill Myles
Gentlemen Prefer Succubi (The Succubus Diaries Book 1)
People…I have an announcement to make. There’s a new vampire in my life (and possibly my favorite). Yes, I know, I am fickle, but I just couldn’t choose before. Well, this book made it easy for me 😉 Zane’s the man! He’s all bad boy, with some “good” that keeps peeping through. And those fallen angel wings of his…mmmm…yup, I’ve discovered that I especially like my paranormal men with a few “added” features. Horns, fangs, wings…it’s all good!
Book Review – Dark Needs at Night’s Edge by Kresley Cole
Dark Needs at Night’s Edge
I read this one (Book #4) while “watching” the Superbowl (“watching” is used loosely, here). Yup, I’m that behind in my reviews again. I’m tellin’ ya…this series is really good, and quite hard to put down.
So my question was…how in the world was an entire story about a vampire falling in love with a ghost going to work? No biting? No touching? Nooooo…well, you know 😉
As I expected, this book did not contain a ton of that, but one thing it did do is recount a beautiful tale of two completely different beings overcoming their physical issues, to ease each other’s suffering and forge an unbreakable bond.
Book Review – Wicked Deeds on a Winter’s Night by Kresley Cole
Wicked Deeds on a Winter’s Night
Bowen’s book was, to me, just as riveting as book #2. Bowen was introduced to us in Book#1 (Lachlain’s lykae cousin, in mourning over his dead mate), and appeared again in Book #2 as one of the ruthless competitors in the Hie (a contest for preternaturals, akin to “The Amazing Race” but much more deadly).
Bowen, hoping to win the prize in Book# 2 (a “key” that would allow him to time travel twice), shows himself as a cutthroat unyielding competitor. Desperate to win the key, and go back in time to save his mate, he even goes so far as to seal some competitors in a cave together. Unfortunately for him, his biggest competitor, still in the game (Sebastian the vampire in Book# 2) defeats him, because he too, is fighting for his mate’s life.
