A Job From Hell by Jayde Scott

A Job From Hell by Jayde Scott
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Amber can’t believe her brother got her a job as a housekeeper in Scotland, while the change of scenery is ideal considering her boyfriend put their relationship on hiatus, she is hardly a housekeeper. Amber meets Aidan the owner of the house and is surprised, he is young and handsome as well as a recluse. Little did Amber know that things really do go bump in the night and after her brother talks her into a life altering event, she becomes surrounded by people she doesn’t know if she can trust. Not to mention Aidan is her soul mate.

This was intriguing but there was so much it was hard to follow initially. Had a gothic feel and several story lines that look like will develop in future books. Liked the concept.

Hunting Season by Shelly Laurenston

Hunting Season by Shelly Laurenston
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Wilhelm Yager, leader of the Ravens knows one thing, Neecy Lawrence is going to be his. Neecy is part of the New Jersey Crows and although they both are fighting for their own clan, he has a plan to get Neecy in his bed, apartment, and wherever else he can take her. Neecy is not interested though, she doesn’t want to be anywhere near Yager. Will makes her a proposition though, 24 hours in his bed. Neecy agrees however she doesn’t realize that Yager has some loopholes of his own.

Very fun read. Neecy is a handful, but Will does not back down. He is half crazy and I loved the geek factor, citing Russ Meyers was a hoot. Completely different type of book for Shelly Laurenston, has a little bit of mythology twists into the story.

Desert Bound by Elizabeth Hunter

Desert Bound by Elizabeth Hunter

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Teodora “Ted Vasquez wants nothing to do with Alex McCann when he returns to Cambio Springs. She had put her heart out there twice only to have it stomped on and Alex leaving. Alex though is back for good and his intention was never to hurt Ted, but he inevitably did. Alex is the future alpha and he wants Ted by his side. There is opposition as Ted is a cat and Alex a wolve, but she is his sole mate. As a murder happens, Alex and Ted have to work together to figure out who did it.

I thought the way that Alex is introduced back into Ted’s life was very realistic, she is pissed and makes no effort to want to work things out. Alex is persistent though and eventually Ted is willing to trust him. I thought the mystery aspect of the story was intriguing, a lot of characters and what looks like more series in the future.

Her Boss The Alpha by K.S. Martin

Her Boss The Alpha by K.S. Martin

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Lauren doesn’t understand why Jake frequently stares at her, he is her boss but from what Lauren can tell she is one of the best workers he has. Jake knew the minute he caught sight of Lauren that she was his mate, he has been waiting a year to make a move but she always seemed unreachable. Jake gets his chance though and tries to go slowly with earning Lauren’s trust, but as a shifter you have to be constantly on guard and very few know of their existence.

I liked the idea of this story, but it felt like it was missing something. Both characters are likeable and it definitely has sizzle factor, I think I would have liked t get to know each character a bit more.

Blind Date With A Bear by Marie Mason

Blind Date With A Bear by Marie Mason

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Quinn Blackwood is doing his sister a favor by showing up on the blind date she arranged. In and out is his plan, until he smells his mate. When Quinn finds out that his blind date is actually his mate he is elated. The night is going smoothly until he is called away on business and although Quinn thought he made it clear that she was his mate, Paige Matthews thinks he is looking for a one night stand.

This was fun fluff, but I felt like there was some stuff missing in the overall story. Quinn was pure alpha, but very full of himself. Likeable but purely macho male. I liked Paige, she is a bit insecure but grows into herself. Would check out more in this series.

Siddalee always thought she was meant to be Jasper Gandillion’s mate, but when he leaves her for six months without a word, she is devastated. She would never allow Jasper to see that pain though and when he returns to claim her as his mate, she puts up a fight. However not all is as it seems with Siddalee and as the truth comes out, Jasper will have to be patient with his mate as they begin to build their pack.

Had quite a few surprises. I thought overall good story, Siddalee is very head strong and often makes a knee jerk reaction. Jasper is pure alpha, had a twist with him in the beginning I had a hard time believing. Would check out more though from this author.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Kurt, Marcus and Blaez are biker-shifters who live a cavalier life with women and hunting down a terroristic group of vampires who have no problem leaving victims in their wake. When Kurt, Marcus, and Blaez are called in on a new case they are ready to jump into action. Kurt knew he would be meeting his mate soon, the dreams he had set the path to his future. He had not expected it to be someone he had met briefly before. Suzette is everything his mate should encompass but he never expected to have to share, especially with Marcus and Blaez. With the threat setting it’s sights on Suzette, all three men have to keep her safe and mated to keep her by their side.

I would have liked to see how the ending played out a bit more, everything was resolved but I could of used a few more pages of seeing this couple pave their way. I liked Suzette and found her to be perfect for all three men. Good book.

Unable to resist the scent

Mist Unveiled

Nancy Corrigan

Elemental Desire, Book 1

Cat has one love in her life—science. Facts rule her, not passion. At least it doesn’t until an unknown deadly virus claims her sister’s life. Cat’s quest for answers takes her to Greenland and drops her into the arms of the one man who sways her devotion from logic to passion. Rune stirs her lusts, ignites her desires and fuels her carnal cravings, but he isn’t simply a lover, nor is he human. He’s a weapon, one that has the potential to save or destroy her.

Rune, a child of the mist, awakens into a world hovering on the verge of destruction. Rising temperatures have released his enemies from their frozen prison without his knowledge. He searches for them but finds Cat, a human with the power to save him and the world. He hungers for her—blood, body and soul. Every moment of shared passion convinces him of the truth—she’s his greatest treasure, one he’ll die to keep.

A Romantica® paranormal erotic romance from Ellora’s Cave

Excerpt

She’d noticed he only answered the questions she posed, nothing more. She supposed many people would be annoyed with him for it. Part of her was too. The rest of her appreciated the silence he offered. She had to admit, though, she was interested.

“What did you do in Iceland?”

He mapped her face before focusing on her eyes. “Security.”

She chuckled at the one word answer. Yesterday, she would’ve been content with it because really, did she need more than that? Despite her attraction to him, Rune was a stranger who would pass through her life. In a few days, she’d leave Greenland and him behind. Her curiosity demanded more, however. A few details would be nice to add to her memory of him.

“As a guard?”

He gave her a single nod.

“Of what?”

He skimmed his finger down her throat, but thankfully dropped his hand before she combusted from the simple touch. “Important people and their possessions.”

“And what do you do here in Upernavik?”

He took her hand and rubbed his thumb over her palm, heating her chilled skin. “The same, but you are my sole responsibility now.” His gaze locked to hers. “And you are the most valuable person I’ve ever been responsible for.”

Review

After seeing her sister die from a deadly virus that has no cure, Cat is on a mission to try and find a cure. Cat has no idea that the virus has more to do with things that go bump in the night, arriving in Greenland she finds herself attracted to a man named Rune. Cat is not one for relationships or distractions, but everything about Rune has Cat on edge and wanting something more.

Rune is a child of the mist who has awoken to save the world from destruction. One fateful moment has rune taking the first step in claiming Cat as his consort. Cat would be unlike any consort he has been with though, she would be only be his. With the world teetering Rune doesn’t need the distraction, but he is feeling the need to claim his mate who is unsure of what Rune actually is.

Intriguing story. I thought this was a fantastic read. Very different and you were able to visualize every moment in the story. I loved Rune, he is out of his element and doesn’t quite know how to handle Cat which leads to a very fun read. Highly entertaining.

Here Be Sexist Vampires by Suzanne Wright

Here Be Sexist Vampires by Suzanne Wright

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

When Sam Parker was turned into a vampire, she did not realize her life would take a dramatic turn. As a consort/assassin for the last three years for her vile maker, Sam just tries to get by on a daily basis looking for an out. That out comes in the form of a mind changing offer, try out for the Grand High Masters Vampire Army. It is a rare offer especially for a woman, but Sam’s gifts are unprecedented and would be a huge asset to the Army.

Of course when she meets Commander and heir to the Grand Master, Jarod, he makes his intent clear she is perfectly suited as a..consort and the sooner she comes to his bed the quicker she can go back to her life. Sam though has other ideas, including whipping his ass for his sexist behavior. The challenge is set and when Jarod is told Sam will not be his trainee rather his co-worker, all bets are off the temperamental vixen has Jarod determined to make her is, but she won’t settle to be treated as a piece of meat in his harem.

Absolutely one of the funnest vampire stories I have read in a long time, Sam is a kick in the pants and tough to boot. She completely keeps Jarod off guard and he struggles, boy does he struggle with his arrogant demeanor. Definitely reread worthy.
