If life itself was not difficult enough, Isabell Dionysus needs a man; but not just any man. She needs a man that knows his magic and will understand what is needed to help her. Isabell is a witch, so not only does this man have to be able to feel magic, this man must fulfill the agreement that her great-grandmother had made with the fairies to save her. Isabell knows she is working against time. She put a Luring Spell out to bring forth the man that can help her and fit the bill to a T. Boy did it work, this man is all she could have ever wanted or needed, but there is one thing that is wrong, he wants nothing to do with Magic! What is Isabell going to do? Can she get David to change his mind in time? Can Isabell and David have the love that was destined to them? or will fear control them?
David Pennyfield wanted nothing to do with Magic, period. He had turned away from his gifts, and thought he had succeeded until Isabell Dionysus let lose her spell which caused his magic sight to return. He will do anything to make it go away again before he goes crazy like his mother had. He thought he would have done anything to stop his powers, until he meets Isabell. She tells him that having sex magic with her is the only way for him to get what he wants. What will David do? Does he want to have his safe life again, without magic? Or a life with Isabell, which has brought him in the short time she has been in his life, such joy?
This book kept me reading until the last word. It was a great, well written story that made you want these two to have a happy ever after ending. I loved the way the author made the storyline build. The heat between the two was "HOT", but not only was there great sex, but there was a build up of love. The storyline was well built so it made it a great story, not just all SEX, like some these days do. If you want to read a great book that has not only "Great Sex", but a great storyline that makes you want to read until the last word, then pick up WITCH LORE by Alison Paige

Dr. Jolie Blakney is picked to recruit Thorgan, a Union Cyborg, and his fellow Cyborgs to help them with their war. Jolie is a doctor that can help to restore sexual function to the cyborgs. The Federation has promised to help, but to help restore them in a decade or two. So she is sent to try to get him to see their way, and help them. Sparks fly between the two the first time they set eyes on each other. Jolie is willing to give Thorgan what he wants, her body, but not only to get him to see it their way, but because she is growing to care about this man. It is not a hardship to give her body to a man as hot as Thorgan, and boy does he know how to treat her. But will she get this man to see that she wants him for him, not what he can give her and the federation? Will she be able to get him to see this, and to know she wants him, so he will stop his dumb actions?
Thorgan hears what the Federation is offering him, and who they send to tell him this is Jolie, a woman whose body makes him see "flames". The Federation is offering to restore their sexual function if they are willing to help the Federation on there side of the sector. Thorgan is willing to take this woman to bed when he is offered for sure, but will the sexual drive back in the Cyborgs weaken them or build their strength back up? Will what Jolie has given him, her body and heart, be enough for him?
This book was "Great". It had me jumping out of my seat and laughing more than once while reading it. The storyline between Jolie and Thorgan was pure "HEAT". The authors excellent world building, creating the planet and its people made me want to know more; I didn't want this story to end. I can't wait to find more from this author in the future.

All Maura wanted was freedom, so when she tries to terminate her mating, she is thrown out of her Lunewulf home. But that isn't a bad thing in Maura's eyes, she is free. Memories of another werewolf from the Malta pack makes her want to find him. She knows that the chance of finding the man that draws her is small, but that is better than none. What Maura doesn't realize is that the man she is drawn to knows she is on the way to him. He has a gift that makes him able to read what she thinks or feels. Will these two have the chance at becoming each others mate for life? But they have some bumps in the road before they can have that future.
Unknown to Maura, Josie has already found her. He is shocked at the way she was treated. Due to his gift he can hear all that Maura thinks and feels. So with that he can find her and take her back to the pack. But then he finds out all the things her mate Pete had done to her before he had her thrown out of her family, her pack. Josie sees red and the only thing he wants is to see this man/beast dead. To him Maura is a beautiful gift that any man/werewolf would be pleased with having. All he knows is no matter what strife this causes the Malta Werewolves, he can't just let this man get away with what he had done to his mate, Maura; he must pay. All Josie wants is a future with this kind and gentle woman, but he must get through the ritual that allows him to have her as his mate first.
Well Lorie O'Clare did it again. This story was strong from start to finish. The relationship between Maura and Josie builds quite well, and beautifully. I loved the way that Josie wanted to right the wrongs done to his future mate by her past mate. I loved the way he wanted to protect her and show her how special she is and that he can give her what she deserves; and he is the one to show her. I hope that Ms. O'Clare keeps going with this wonderful series of the Malta Werewolves; I know I will keep reading and loving them.

Sylvie Skylar is taking a much needed vacation on her beach. She worked so hard in her job as Gator Goddess, as she's called, that Sylvie didn't have a private life. When she is laying on the beach feeling the heat of the sun, she opens her eyes, and what does she see? A big male alligator that had just walked up onto the beach. But when she blinks and looks again, it is a gorgeous man. Big and beautiful, he tells her his name is Remy. Will the Gator Goddess not only get her gator, but also get her man that is a shapeshifter? Can she handle this big man, all night long, showing her what she has been missing all these years by letting work be the only thing in her life?
This was one great and funny story! I loved the way that Remy just walks on up the beach and shocks Sylvie when he shifts into one hot "Man". I loved the unusual animal Ms. Winter chose for her shifter, very unique. A fun read!

When Theo was taking pictures one night and takes some of what looked like a man leaning over a woman, the next day the woman is found dead. Theo can't believe he might hold the pictures of the murderer. Theo is a freelance photographer and he takes pictures where ever he goes just in case he gets something that is sellable. Then he catches Anna Grace trying to steal his pictures. See, Theo is a human, but he isn't like most humans. He has the power to push other people's minds into what he wants them to do. He uses that power on Anna, who is not a human but a vampire.
Anna Grace knows that she must stop this vampire that is killing humans before it goes too far. These vampires that treat humans as just food are who hurt others like her, and her family and friends that are vampires. Anna has gone to Richmond to find Titius, a violent vampire who is feeding off the humans in the city. When they find out that Titius has let himself be caught on film, all Anna knows is she must catch this vampire and get the pictures before they are published and let loose on the public. But when she goes to get the pictures from the man that took them, Theo finds her before she is able to and she finds out that he is a human with some of his own powers. Theo is able to dominate Anna and they have some of the hottest and wildest sex that she has ever had. Can they both work together to find Titius, the vampire that thinks humans are his food, and will take who ever he wants whenever he wants? Will their passion and feelings for each other make them stronger? They are working against the clock with this violent, evil vampire.
Mechele Armstrong has written one of the best vampire story lines I have read, "Ever". I love the way she writes the vampires in these stories as strong and passionate beings. And Theo, well he is pure "Heat", and I loved the way she made him human but having his own powers over Anna. I loved the fast paced chase and intrigue of this story. It keeps you on the edge of your seat wondering if they will be able to stop him in time, and if their feelings and love will be strong enough to last. I look forward to this author's next book, and can't wait until it comes out.

Orry didn't know what to do unless he was jacked into the stream, it's an addiction. But now he is on the run because he jacked, afraid of being caught he took a wrong turn in the net, and went into a room that had old and dirty files and took some. Now the Anths and the spiders have been hot for finding and capturing him at any cost. But Orry needed to Jack, so he is about to when he is captured by two men, and taken. What he doesn't realize at the time is they are there to protect him, and take him to safety. Dar and Cents are the men that are trying to help, but Orry is so scared all he wants to do is Jack, just for a moment. He didn't know what to do, he had been jacking since he was little and felt so horrible. Orry is known as the Steel Butterfly, well known for being able to get away from the authorities and the spiders that are after him.
Dar had been through this before with Cents. Cents had gone through the withdrawals of not being able to Jack, and Dar helped him through the hard times in between Jacking. Dar will keep his boys safe at any cost. At first Cents is jealous of Orry, Dar is his Man, no one elses. But Dar gets him to see the whole picture, and that Orry is in a lot of pain; and Cents knows how that feels. Dar has an idea of getting the information that Orry has in his head out to others so the more that know, then maybe Orry will be safe. Can they get the information out there before it is too late and they are caught? Will these three have a chance at life, not having to live in fear; a normal life where they can be happy together?
Well, Mike Shade has written one of the best stories I have read. At first there is some unfamiliar vocabulary, "jacking" and so on, but he explains it so well that the story flows without interruption. I loved his vision of this future world where the net becomes more the norm than real life, it was just so cool. I love anything that Mike Shade writes, but this was so different than any I have read from him, and let me tell you, It Was Great! I can't wait to see what the author comes up with next; I know I will be there with bells on to read it.

Will Vi give Cere the chance to prove that not all men are dogs, and that some can be trusted, ones like him? Will she also except that Cere isn't human? And will Vi being human be enough for Cere?
Anh Leod has written a great werewolf story. For some ladies out there that have experienced what happened to Vi, with a man you are in love with cheating on you, they can understand where Vi stands. I am in love with anything werewolf or vampire, so I have read a lot let me tell you. But the way Ms. Leod wrote this story was so well done. The relationship between Vi and Cere, the fight he had to show her that not all men are dogs, that some can be trusted and not to turn away from men just because some of the bad ones out weigh the good ones. Your true soul mate is out there and this story shows that.

Maggie wanted to keep Rafe happy and safe. It has been only a week since she had saved him from the demons in hell and she was already telling him things to try to keep him safe. She lies to him, she just wants to keep everyone she loves safe from Abatu the demon. She has been causing trouble for way to long for most, and needed to be stopped. So Maggie has plans, she wants to take him out, to stop him from screwing with her life and others. She wants to do it by herself, in that cause then everyone she loves will be safe, but how smart is that? And Abatu is hiding in hell until he can get what he wants by destroying the world and turning it into his and his alone. Will Maggie be able to take him by herself? Or will she give in and ask for help when she needs it? Or will she lose her life trying to save everyone she loves?
This story socks a Punch from the first page. This book was a great add to this great series of the Demon Hunter. I am a big fan of Maggie, I mean who wouldn't be. Yes sometimes her choices are not the smartest, but she does all her choices with her heart not always with her head. When you take someone like her that is used to being alone, doing things without asking for help, it is not human nature to just change that over night. And Rafe, he is gentle and kind and just loves Maggie. The love making scenes between these two will blow your socks off they are that full of passion. I can't wait to read more by Michele Bardsley.

Well this book was "Hot" let me tell you. I am so attracted to bdsm done in the loving way, and some pain play can be so erotic also. This author made this story loving and erotic that it made it one of my favorite bdsm stories to date. I loved the way that Ry made Brighid feel she could let loose, give her control over to him. What woman hasn't dreamed of doing that? I know I have, and with this story I could put myself in this story, and believe that with the write man, lover you can get all you desire.

But as Angelica knows death isn't done yet with Ocenaview, it has just begone, and Angelica is in the middle. Will Angelica be enough to stop this evil before more die?
I enjoyed this story quite a bit, but to me it needed more to the storyline. It had to much and not enough plot. Don't get me wrong, it was a very good book, very well put together, just not enough meat to the on going story as you read it. That is the only thing I felt was not quite right with this story and stopped me from giving it a 5. But this author has a "Great" voice and a great imagination on Her that I really can't wait for her next story to see where she goes with her talent.

Charlotte Reynolds life is busy enough, taking care of being the money supporter of her family of Vampires and keeping the ones that are human safe and alive. That leaves hardly any time to breath, let alone a relationship with a man. But with that also comes loneliness, not have someones shoulder to cry on, or tell someone your pains or hurts. Then when things start to go wrong with the worldwide vampire community witch takes up even more time our of her life she doesn't have, makes her feel that being alone is lonelier and harder then what she thought it would be. I mean having freedom since you are not tired in a relationship has its pluses but also it's draw backs. Can she teach the ones in her family to take care of themselves in time before it is to late for them? Or when she is given that chance at love, will her family's ways of always depending on her to fix there things stop her at the love that is standing right in front of her face? Also she must at any cost keep her one Sister alive and safe without losing the one true love that will be the one to support her through eternity? Will she be able to do all this before it is to late and she loses everything she holds dear?
Savannah Madanelle is one of those author's that pulls you in from the first page. The way she wrote this woman, so strong, the supporter of her family, the teacher of how to stay alive and sufficient. I loved that, to show a strong woman that can do it all is great, but to be able to do that and have a lover that is the love of your life, is even better. I loved how Savannah wrote that she was strong before she met the love of her life, but that she became even stronger and a powerhouse with her lover beside her site was so great. I loved her vampire family, the way this author builds her stories is just great.

"Oh God" this story was Damn Great. But come on what did we expect, right? This author knows how to write a story with Intrigue and passion and story line, all of what you need for a 5 book. I loved the passion that was between these two. And the storyline, of her thinking she lost the love of his life, and raising their son by herself has happened to many times in real life, so to read a story with a happy ever after, for me as a reader is so "Great". To read a book like this that helps you escape from life is what is needed more in life that is for sure.

Kevin had been one of the " Normal" every day men, he worked in Tech Support, very smart that some could be intimidated by. Some would have called him a brainy nerd.

This was such a cute little read.

Gee who out there hasn't done that at one time or another? I look forward to reading more by this author in the future.

Elaine Llewellyn didn't know what to do with her life, she was a workaholic, and didn't know what to do unless she was at work. But now that she is on a "Enforced" vacation, she is not sure what to do. Now that she can sit still and think she isn't liking it at all. It makes her think of things from the past that then brings up thoughts and feelings, not good, not good at all. She had done quite well keeping those hidden in a little corner in her mind, but now she couldn't seem to do that. So she decides to go on a road trip to Maine. On the way she hits a storm and needs to take cover and has to stop at Damon Thorne's Private Retreat. This man is well known, and seems to have been expecting her? Stuck in the house now and no way out Damon seems to be worming his way into her heart and head even thought she is fighting tooth and nail all the way. He is using all he can to get her to open up her heart and let him in to show her what life is really about, not all work. So when the storm is over, Elaine has a choice, to let the man that has broken her walls down in and not leave? Or go back to her old life, of only life being her life? give up all the passion, all the nice moments with this kind man for just Work. And talk about the "Passion", oh god she would be crazy, wouldn't she?
Damon Thorne knew he had his work cut out for him. He had known that Elaine Llewellyn was on her way to him, and saw how her life has been centered on work and only work. It becomes Damon's mission to show this woman there is more to life then work. That there is passion and Living for one. And he is the man to show her that there is. To show her that she hasn't been living, but part living, and when the day comes and the job is all she has, will it keep her warm at night? Will Damon with all his powers be enough to show Elaine that there is more to life, and that she has hidden powers of her own?
Well Charlene Teglia, did it again. She wrote a "Great" story with a wonderful man in it that shows Elaine that there is so much more to life then her job, and that she has hidden powers of her own. I love anything to do with books with Psychic men or woman in them. The draw of being able to see what someone needs before they do, or help them when there is danger, oh that just makes the story so much more for me. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Being Raised in the inner city of Detroit made Tempest Moon stronger and smarter for sure. She is very gifted with not only being head singer and lead guitar playing, and of her own band. See Tempest thinks that is she knows what she wants, why not go for it and she is good and strong enough to have the future she dreamed about, but it isn't just a dream any more, no now she is living it. This way no one else can say she isn't good enough or talented enough, no she is in control of her destiny and life, and this is what she wants. One horrible stormy blizzard night her and her band were playing in a downtown dive. She has one more set to do before they can leave and get somewhere safe from this blizzard storm. But before they are done, a man walks in, Tempest can tell that this man is "different" not the norm and he draws her to him. He is one gorgeous piece of man that she has ever seen, but he is so pale like no color to his skin. But that makes him seem more intriguing to her. Who is this man? Could this man be her future? or is he going to be the death of her?
Malceaux went into the bar to get out of the storm and to not have to kill any more of the worthless minions of the vampire's territory boss's. Then he sees Tempest, and is glad he came into the bar, so glad. Malceaux has a special cir4circumstance where he has to find an offspring, a female thrall that could fulfill all his sexual needs and passions he would go mad. He had had this pasted down through his sire. And Tempest draws him like no other woman has, he must have her. She is the child he has been searching for. Will he get Tempest to let him make her his?

Hera St. Aubryn's book drew me, for one I love anything vampire :), but also the story line was different then most I have read lately. And Hera St. Aubryn won me over as a reader and reviewer. The story was strong, the characters played off of each other quite well. The passion between Tempest and Malveaux was "Pure Fire". I look forward to reading more by this author.

Crystal Jordan leaves me in awe of her writing skills. This story any woman that has lost a child can understand the pain they are going through. I loved the way she wrote the emotions and pain that these two were going through, to show that sometimes having another shoulder to cry on is OK. The only thing I hate was that this story wasn't longer. This author has a gift and will go far with her writing.

How could that be? they seemed almost human. Then in her head one of them talked to her and told her her day had come. What day was that? and how could the wolf be talking to her? all she new is that she needed to survive to get the medicine to her grandmother or her grandmother would die.
A silver wolf came out of the shadows and growled at the wolfs and in her head she heard it talk to her and tell her to "Run". She ran until she made it home. That night when she told her grandmother what had happened to her while she was making her medicine up, her grandmother freaked out, she told her to never go into the woods again. Later that night she told Kira that she had had a Dam and a Sire for parents, what did her grandmother mean by that? she couldn't have come from wolfs could she? The next day she meet to strangers that needed lodging because of the weather, or did they? One was called Sharp and the other one Valgard. Valgard brought out feelings in her that she had never felt before, and Sharpe seemed to bring out fear in her, what is that? Can her grandmother be telling her the truth and that she needed to find her path in her peoples life's? that she needs to pick if she wants to be part of the Darkness, the evil part or the Army of the light, the lightness of her people. How will she choose? will she pick the right path? The right man? Or be drawn into the darkness like her grandfather had been and many other good people had been drawn into?
This book was a new light on werewolf stories for me. I really enjoyed it, I just wish it was longer and that you could have gotten to know the characters better. Had the relationship between Kira and her mate. If you love a good werewolf story then this is a book for you.
