My upcoming release list for Sept. 30th.
Current mood: working
Vampire Manolito De La Cruz has caught the scent of his destined lifemate in MaryAnn Delaney, an all-too-human female who'd never surrender herself to an aggressive and brutish Carpathian male. But MaryAnn may not have a choice. This edition includes bonus scenes.
This is the mass market release of this book. I started the series in mm and have no room for hardbacks, so I'm a little behind on this series from Ms. Feehan.
A feisty huntress is forced to choose between love and revenge, in this second installment of the Moon Chasers series. Original.
The first book in this series was a blast to read, and I hoping that the second is just as good as the first.
When Regina's friends insist on setting her up a "Fantasy Fix" to help her get over her cheating ex, she doesn't expect to be laced into a shiny black corset, tight leather pants, and a sexy pair of stilettos and sent to the Vampire Ball in Manhattan's East Village. Original.
For those who remember that Ms. Warren originally wrote this book with the title of Fantasy Fix for Ellora Cave, this is the remake. I have heard that she has expanded the book from its previous edition, so we should be in for a treat.
Hot on the heels of her series featuring the Argeneaus, "New York Times"-bestselling author Sands begins a new series focusing on the Rogue Hunters--immortals associated with the Argeneaus who work for The Council and hunt vampires who have broken their laws. Original.
If they're as sexy as the Argeneaus, then Ms. Sands has another hit with this series.
Sasha Trudeau and Hunter are on a mission to stop a new wolf pack from destroying the Shadow Wolves, an elite group of werewolf attack survivors trained to protect the government. Original.
I haven't had a chance to read the first book in this series. Hopefully I will get a chance to before I buy this book. While reading the previews for the first book, it seemed different from her vampire huntress story that I decided to try Ms. Banks again. I did not care for her huntress stories, too much street slang.
The Romanian estate of master vampire Aleksei Rachlav has become the headquarters for those paramortals who stand against Dracula's army. Gillian Key finds herself with a group of new clients, including a disfigured masked man who haunts a Parisian opera house. Original.
Ms. Gryphon's first book in this series got a lot of flack from different readers as being unbelievable and childish. Yeah, the main character had a chip on her shoulder but she was still likable and the other characters were diverse and complex. This is the third book in the series, and the second one is in my TBR pile.
Wilson delivers the third stunning novel in her "New York Times"-bestselling Tairen Soul saga. In this installment, Rain and Ellie return to the Fading Lands to save the dying Tairen and to consummate their love. Original.
I got a chance to meet Ms. Wilson at DragonCon, but no spoilers about her latest book was given to me. You will just have to read the book, like I do.
A Celtic demigod, Mac Lir finds eternal life incredibly boring until he meets a mysterious, captivating woman who arouses him like no other, but who has the power to destroy all he holds dear. Original.
If you have had an opportunity to hear about this series coming from Dorchester publishing, then you know what a fantastic storyline this is. This is the sixth book in the series, with two more scheduled to be release.
Featuring sexy vampires, dangerous devotion, and unparalleled romance, Ashley's thrilling sequel to her "New York Times" bestseller "Night's Touch" explores a passion as smoldering as it is risky. Original.
Well, that is all for now. I hope to post some reviews for you guys soon. Trying to wade through my TBR pile, and I'm not making too much progress.
This is the other half of book list that should have been posted.

Donovan Shea knows Alex's project is important to the ongoing Pyr/Slayer war. So when he sees Alex being followed by a Slayer, he reacts and defends her. Original.
Well, I was going to read the 2nd and 3rd books in the Anna Windsor Dark Crescent Sisterhood series but I made a mistake. My mistake was in taking those two books with me on my vacation and leaving them in my hotel room. I understand that stuff winds up missing out of hotel rooms everyday, all the time. However, we the hotel staff takes it upon themselves to rummage through a closet into a piece of luggage that is closed up to find things to steal. That's when it goes too far. But the even worst part of the whole episode, the security for the hotel was drunk and didn't want to file a report because it did not happen on his shift. So, if you happen to stop in Atlanta downtown and want to stay at the Wyndham Garden hotel off of Piedmont Ave. NE. Don't do it, go to another hotel.
I will stop ranting now, and wish everyone a great Labor Day and hope that everyone is stuffed with BBQ and beer.
Leaving on Vacation, but had to share my latest book run.

Spreading the fires of passion into the realm of Arthurian legend--but with a tantalizingly modern twist--Black delivers a richly sensual paranormal romance. Original.
In the thrilling finale of Windsor's supernatural trilogy, the forbidden attraction between a sensuous sorceress and a streetwise cop heats up as the dangerous mystery they're chasing down becomes even more chilling. Original.
Erika Todd moves to New Orleans to pursue her career as a sculptor, staying with friends Ren and Maggie. Ren's brother Vittorio, an enigmatic, attractive musician (and vampire), shows up to stay with them, too; after a rocky start, Ericka and Vittorio cannot suppress their mutual attraction for one another. That draws the wrath of Vittorio's insane mother, Orabella, who has been hunting and killing her son's mortal lovers for decades, and sets the plot—son and lover with conflicted loyalties—in motion. Orabella is deliciously psychotic, but there's little beyond her in this familiar tale of Big Easy haunting.
Experienced romance suspense author Herron (Under His Skin) kicks off her new series with a bang. FBI agent Vincent Valtrez, the son of a devil and an angel, is a Dark Lord with the potential for great good or great evil. His dead father, Zion, is about to be named the new leader of Hell's legions, and Pan, god of fear, wants to harvest Vincent's soul and win Zion's approval. He lures Vincent back to his hometown by targeting psychic Clarissa King, for whom Vincent has long felt an attraction. Herron manages to strike a balance between the romance bubbling between Vincent and Clarissa and the horror of Pan's actions. Vincent displays enough self-loathing to make him an interestingly brooding hero, and readers will enjoy the chase after Pan's earthly agents and Vincent's struggle with his figurative and literal demons, right up to the obligatory cliffhanger ending.

Well, that's it for now. BTW, for all those e-book readers I have a question for you. Have you come across e-books that have serious grammatical errors and mistakes, a lot? I have in my recent experience with buying and reading e-books on my Ebookwise reader. I cannot begin to tell you how aggravating it is to read a line, then have to re-read it to understand what the author is trying to say. If you are having the same problem as I, please let me know.
As promised, here are some more books.

Dark Elves 3: Salvation
Irin was raised among the raedjour -- dark elves bred by their goddess for sexual pleasure. When Irin was a toddler, sorcerers cast a protective spell on her to quell the lustful urges of those around her. Under that spell and the watchful eyes of her protectors, Irin has a happy, if unique childhood as a human girl among all raedjour boys.

Can we say, Sex in the City with a twist of Hell?
Current mood: jedi
Category: Blogging
AFTER THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF ONE-NIGHT STANDS, A GIRL JUST WANTS A LITTLE MORE.
Working for Satan is a hot gig. The Devil really does wear Prada, and Lily can sport all the dazzling fashion she desires, eat all the fabulous food she craves, and hang for all eternity with her three demon girlfriends. But serving up bad boys to the fiery pits of Hell is just getting . . . lonely.
Lily gives the jerks, the creeps, and the liars the best (and last) night of their lives, but she's tired of waking up to a pile of ashes. She wants a guy who will stick around.
BUT A MYSTERIOUS MAN IS TURNING UP THE HEAT. . . .
Nathan Coleman is a devilishly handsome, laid-back P.I. who wants to ask Lily a few questions about a missing man. But someone–or something–wants Lily and her friends dead, and Nathan seems to know more than he'll admit to. Can a sweet-talking mortal and a girl from Hell find true love?
I know that most of you have at some point in time watched an episode of Sex in the City. The girls are always talking about fashion, sex, food, sex, men, sex, clubs, and sex. Well, this is the same thing just add a twist that Satan is your best bud and goes by the name Martha. You are a succubus, and have been one for several thousands of years and have never known true love. Your girlfriends include a goddess, a demon of lust, and a former oracle from Greece. All of you are servants of Satan, and have been targeted by a group of Satan hating men who wish to destroy you. Get the picture? This was an interesting take on the ideal of the succubus legend brought to life in modern day terms. I am curious to see where the author decides to take this series because she left us hanging at the end. At the bottom of this post, I will include the sequel to this book.
Megan promises listeners to her new radio call-in show that she'll "slay their personal demons," and they believe her. So do the personal demons... although she doesn't know it, Megan is the only human without a demon on her shoulder! Megan and her allies - a demon lover who both protects and seduces her with devilish intensity, a witch with poor social skills, and three cockney guard demons - have to deal not only with the personal demons, but a soul-sucker, ghosts of Megan's past, and a reporter who threatens to destroy Megan's career!
Now, Megan is a psychic who has a practice where she helps her patients confront and overcome their fears. She is presented with an opportunity to have a radio show that promises her listeners that she will slay their demons. Well, you can imagine how the demon world feels about this. So, you have a family (think the Mafia, only more demonic) who send a representative to Megan to convince her to work for them and not to accept other offers. And you have an entity who is after Megan for reasons of his own. Trust me, Megan doesn't want to know why he wants her. At first, I wanted to slap Megan around for being hostile and antisocial when her life is in danger from zombies and attacking demons. Not to mention, an associate who is being manipulated to hurt her and this chick just doesn't get the picture. I would recommend this book because its a entertaining read and the author encourages the other characters to show their stuff. This one gets 4.5 stars.
Next on the TBR pile; Half Moon Rising by Margo Lukas. Werewolves, don't you know.

Please forgive the lack of postings here lately. Between myspace mistakes, the fourth of July, and life in general my world has been in chaos. For those who are still waiting on the outcome of the poll for the next series of books you would like to see me read and post reviews, I apologize. I did however read several print and ebooks, put none of the ones listed on my blog. Here is a sample of what I have been reading:
As the carrier of a rare gene, Sirantha Jax has the ability to jump ships through grimspace-a talent which makes her a highly prized navigator for the Corp. Then a crash landing kills everyone on board, leaving Jax in a jail cell with no memory of the crash. But her fun's not over. A group of rogue fighters frees her...for a price: her help in overthrowing the established order.
For someone who likes a mainly Science Fiction storyline, this is your book. It had enough techno babble for the geeks out there, but for you romantics this is not the book for you. Don't get me wrong, there is a love affair between Jax and her pilot, but the author does not go into flowery prose about it. Plus, Jax is coming off from her previous lover being killed in the accident that the company she works for is trying to place the blame on her. Overall, I give this book 4.0 stars.
Let’s have some fun!!
