Working as hard as Sylvia Amenabar did through the years to become one of the up and coming reporters was finally paying off. Doing what she needed to get the story made her feel alive, being out there searching for leads for a story that could make her "A Star" is just right around the corner. And of course the other favorite thing to do in life is hanging with her three best friends, Adriana, Juli and Tori. They all had the same things to talk about, men, sex, and being single; just hanging and having great fun with her girls. These three friends are the only ones that she can share her deep secrets with. And the other great thing, Carlos Ramirez, the man in her life. Carlos is a cop and one that doesn't give up easily as Sylvia finds out. He wants to find out what makes her tick, how to get inside and find a way to capture her heart forever. As things heat up with Carlos, a story breaks from his past. She wants to uncover what happened, but when she finds out one of her best friend's boyfriend could be in the middle of it makes it even harder. Sylvia needs to figure out, is a story more important than the ones she loves? Is the scoop worth tearing apart so many lives, including hers? Is her job worth losing the man she loves?
Carlos Ramirez knows how short life can be and wants to make what future they have strong and full of life and love. After he was shot in a case that had gone bad, Carlos will do anything to brake down the walls that surround Sylvia's heart, to show her that he is the man for her. But all of that comes to a pause when a story brings back a tragic event in his life that make Carlos wonder if Sylvia has her life in order, her priorities in place, a story cannot keep you warm at night, tell you they love you more then anything, can it? As time goes on and she gets more and more into the story the bridge they had between them becomes wider and wider. Can Carlos get her to realize that her job isn't everything, that life is short and if you keep putting your job before the ones that love you it will come up and bite you in the end?
I loved, loved this story. I came into this series on this book. That is the only bad thing I can say about this story. Sylvia, like many woman out there, find out that when you are trying to have a career and a lover, friends and family sometimes can be more than one person can take. Sylvia had fought to get where she is now in her career and it was starting to pay off. She has become one of the up and coming reporters in the sultry city of Miami. She has three of the best girlfriends anyone could ever ask for. They share everything, boyfriends, sex, just life. Then there is Carlos the man she is seeing and starting to fall for. Carlos has one of those jobs that can be scary, high risk, he is a cop. But when Carlos is shot in the line of duty, he starts to see that life can be short and you need to live each day to the fullest and you job is just a job, not your life. He wants to unlock the door to Sylvia's Heart, to see what makes her tick, to built on what they have because he is falling in love with her and wants more. Can he get Sylvia to see that there is more to life then her job? And it doesn't help that the big story she is chasing could include one of her best friend's boyfriend. Can Sylvia figure out that her job isn't her whole life before she loses the ones she loves? I now look forward to getting my hands on the other books by Caridad Pineiro.

When Clary Fray had thought to go to the Pandemonium Club she never would have dreamed she would have witnessed a murder. And on top of that the culprits to that murder where three teenagers that had strange looking tattoos all over them caring these weird looking weapons. She thought she had seen all she was going to see after going to New York to have some fun, but then the body of the victim goes on the lamb and no one can find it. So how can she call the police to let them know she saw someone killed when there is no body to show them, and the murderers aren't seen by anyone else around her? Unknown to Clary this was the first sight of the Shadowhunters, who were warriors dedicated to killing the earth Demons that are polluting Earth. But in seeing all of this she gets to meet Jace who was a Shadowhunter. To her he looked more then a pure man that would be called a angel from others, but he sure acts like a jerk to her, so that kinda kills the Angel thoughts she thinks when she saw him for the first time. Put as time goes on Clary is pulled further into Jace's world when she finds out her Mother is missing. Then more shocking things happen, Clary is taken by a Demon herself, but she has no idea why and what they would want with her? But in being captured by this Demon all of a sudden she gets the "Sight". Will Clary and Jace be able to find out what these Demons want with her and her mother witch up till now have been ordinary humans? Cassandra Clare has an amazing gift that pulls her readers in and keeps them hooked until the end. It had everything I want from a book, action, mystery and intrigue until the very last page. It made me feel excited and I couldn't get enough of it. I really can't wait for the city of ashes to come out to see where Cassandra takes the characters I have feel in love with.I know it's going to have me hooked from start to finish. If people are looking for a book that will keep you thirsting for more, then go to the store and pick this book up. I'm sure you won't be disappointed. Reviewed by Breanna M Harvey

She wanted to further herself and prove that just because you are a woman, doesn't mean you can't be in the military. So when she has great success on the last few missions, she was hoping that would show how good she is and they would be anxious to advance her in rank. The missions went so well also due to the elite vampire force. When she gets word of what her next mission will be, her dreams turn to horror when she learns what it all entails. The Vampires she has worked with and gotten to know quite well are in danger from the government she works for. Ursula knows she must contact the Elder Turi, even at the cost of her career and her life, and tell him what is going to happen. With the help of two "Damn Hot" Vampire Fighters, Max and Solomon, she tries to beat what the Military has planned. As she works with Solomon, she feels pure heat and attraction that shocks her to her toes. And when he returns the attraction, oh that makes what they are going against a little less scary. As they work with each other, the danger and threat causes them to grow closer. But can these two go against the Government she has worked for and survive? Will one or both of them make it through this so they might have a future together?
I am one "Great Big Fan" of vampire stories, and these two authors made me love this story in a "Great Big Way". I loved the way they made Ursula such a strong woman, showing us that there are woman that can do things many say we can't. I loved the attraction between Solomon and Ursula, the passion they shared was quite hot, but so romantic and loving. To me that makes the story so "Strong". I would love to have the chance to read their book "Blood Lust"; I went into this story not knowing what some of the characters' stories were in that book. The story line was fast pasted and written quite well, I can't wait to read more by these two authors, Miriam Pace and Jacqueline Hamilton.

Reviewers Name- Nicole Harvey
To Naomi McElroy, family meant everything. Taking care of your family, the house; that is what was embedded in her. But inside Naomi dreamed and wanted more. So when they came and found Naomi she was ripe for the picking. She was seduced in a beautiful garden under the full moon. And on that night and under the full moon, she became someone else, someone that thrived on the hungers of blood, and the erotic nature of the taste of blood, the Undead. She now lives with the hungers for blood that will never go away. She is no longer known as Naomi McElroy, but as Belle. She now has a new family, a vampire family. They all share the ups and the downs of the struggle and need for blood.
In Belle's new life she craves and needs desire and passion to thrive. Belle is drawn to this new life, but she also hates the new way of life she is living. The joys of the way her body has changed and grown, the way she now has such strong senses, the strength of her new body, the way other sicknesses could have killed her, now they can't. Her new lover, Silvija, can give Belle what no other can; the feeling of what skin to skin connection with a lover that knows what you need and crave. The pains of betrayals from ones you thought you knew, the pain of losing ones you love; this all comes with Belle's new life. Can Belle, with the help of her new clan, come through these rough times, and deal with the loss the people and the life she had?
Oh "WOW", I want more by this author! The way she wrote this story was so passionate that I couldn't put it down. I will be reading the others before this story to get a chance to see where this all came from. I loved Belle. The way Fiona wrote the soft side of Belle but then also her "Kick Ass" side that will not allow you to hurt anyone she loves drew me like no book has in a long time. This author is going places, and straight to the number one spot.

Amara couldn't remember a day she hadn't been in love with Griffin. But she hasn't seen him for a while, but even if he hadn't been right in front of her, he had been a huge part of her fantasy life, the way he could love her, oh man could he love her. When she writes her books Griffin is the hero, well if she can't have him in life, why not in one of her books? So now she is heading to California to make her book into a screenplay, but oh if she only knew what lay in front of her in California, the man she has loved from afar. Griffin runs the studio that is doing her screenplay, boy how life can change at the drop of a hat.
Griffin had meet Amara years before through her brother. Griffin and her brother had been part of role-playing games; that was the day that the feelings he felt for her started. But he never acted on it because she was his best friend's younger sister. But that has all changed years later when she steps back into his life, now the gloves are off. Now he can go after what he wants, and he even has more leverage to bring her to him, her screenplay. All he wanted to do was show her the heat and passion that he had only lived out through his dreams. To share the experiences with her, the passion that explodes between them when they are near each other. So each night a roll of the magically enchanted die brings the two of them into a dream realm where they can live out the fantasy that they had only thought would be in their dreams, but now can be reality in this dream realm. And the days they share, they get to know each other, what makes them tick, what makes them happy, what they had done through the years, getting to know the man and woman they have become. But is this for real Amara wonders? Does this mean the same thing to Griffin as it means to her? Or does he just want to play games, share passion and walk away after they are done? All she wants is to win this man, and win him forever.
This is the first book I have read by Rowan West, and I can say it won't be the last. The way she weaves the characters through this story of passion and magic makes you feel you are living out their dreams. Rowan West has great thoughts, if we could only live in this dream realm just for a night, oh what fun we all could have. A great debut, I look forward to reading more by Rowan West in the near future.

Raina Zharov has decided that she deserves to get one of her fantasies to come true since it is her birthday, I mean that isn't asking for too much now is it? This birthday isn't just any birthday, it is her Millennium birthday and with being a Vampire Queen. Being the Queen has gotten her lots of men, but none of them fulfilled the dream she craved and needed. And that dream is having two men in her body and at the same time, to feel a connection that only two men can make you feel. Marcus has been the only man she has loved with her body and soul, but he was killed at the hands of the vampire that was pure evil, the one that killed him, made her. So now many years later, she wants what she has needed, to have this fantasy come true to make her feel more alive and not the shell she has lived. So when she sees the men that she feels can make that come true, where does she find them ?, she finds them at the slave block of all places. And like she finds out, it is not just the average slave block, it is where men are auctioned as sex slaves, and they will have sex with anyone or anything. But when she looks at them closely she finds out they are not just any men, one is arrogant who is a leader, and the other man is the one that follows the first anywhere he may lead. So she knows she can get the follower to follow what she wants, but can she get the lead man to see what she wants, to follow what she wants? Could this man be the man/mate finally?
Johan Stone is used to doing and saying what ever he wanted or needed, no one told him what to do that is for sure. But all of that changes when he is sold to the woman called Raina who is the Vampire Queen. But Johan is not a stupid man; he knows that this might be the only choice for his best friend Zane. Zane needs help in a bad way, he is dying and Raina can save him. So Johan will do anything to save his best friend. See Zane isn't just a friend, if things had been different they would have been lovers, lovers that have been through so much, being Warriors of an elite Exodus team to a group of fallen Warriors who had been treated horribly, being sold like animals at actions, markets. But what cost will Johan pay to keep his friend alive? Can he bow down to Raina and let her have control of both of them? Johan is used to being the dominate, the one in control. Zane had kept hidden from his best friend Johan his real feelings, the feelings that share him as a submissive, but is afraid to tell Johan this. Living a lie has torn him apart; can he keep this from Johan any longer? But when Zane sees Raina he knows anything is possible. He sees Raina as their savior, the one that will bring them out of hell and into a life of pure love and fulfillment like no other. Zane doesn't even want to think of what would have happened to them if she hadn't bought them. Can Raina get the two men to see that her buying them was something that had been meant to be, that they were meant for each other?
Oh my god, I couldn't put this book down. With this being Jo Carlisle's first published story, I was pleasantly surprised. She wrote like a seasoned author that had many books under her belt, which just goes to show you what will be in her future. She showed the love and passion between all three of the main characters that just makes you feel their emotions. Then you have the evil villain on their tail that was sent to kill at any cost. This story shows you that you do have soul mates out there, and that your soul mates might not be who you expected. The way she writes just shows you a very talented, passionate author with a gift to bring her story alive. I look forward to reading more by Jo Carlisle, she is on the top of my list from now on.

Traycee had a fight on her hands to convince David Carlisle, a Dominant, to show her the way in BDSM. This makes her sister Linzee not to sure about him and she wants to check this man out before he gets anywhere near her little sister. But unknown to Linzee is that she is drawn to this Master/sub world. She is drawn to it even when she doesn't want to be. David tells her that this will be just a platonic teacher and student relationship, nothing else, to show her what it is that her sister is drawn to, but is her sister the only one drawn to this? Linzee is very unsure of this, but takes him up on his offer of showing her what it takes to be in a Master/sub relationship. But what nether realizes is that Linzee is a hidden submissive, and what that will bring out in a Master like David.
David uncovers Linzee's true nature, that she wants to be a love slave to a man that is a Dominate that can take her in hand and give her all she needs and desires. But Linzee goes between anger and wanting this man, she doesn't want to need or want him at all. What this man can do to her with a whip and his voice can unthaw or turn hatred or anger in any woman, or is it just in Linzee? All this started when her sister said she wanted to get a man like David to show her the BDSM life. But where did it go so wrong? Can David show her that he is the man for her, that she not only has found the woman inside herself but has also let the Dominate side of himself find the true woman for him, that she can fulfill him like no other?
Yes, Reese Gabriel did it again. She wrote a very strong story that shows us woman out here living our lives hidden inside because of what others think is wrong and what is right. I love the way that she writes a woman like Traycee, she is straight-laced and has no clue who she really is inside, until she meets a man like David that releases that woman. No matter what she writes, she writes a well rounded, fresh story that draws me in each and every time. I can't wait to read her next book to see what she does next.

I love the way that Josh wrote Adrien and Jake's characters, the way they played off of each other and the way Jake is kinda Adriens' while shinning hero. Just "Hot" and I want more by this author.

Since the day Lyall entered into Janus' life things have been so much better for Janus. The sex is "Hot and Intense", the strong feelings he brings out in Janus, and he will do anything for Lyall. Through Janus' vampire years he had avoided a lot, I mean being a vampire sometimes is hard enough, with all the other vampires that might want you dead, competition, and the human hunters, well don't get him started on them. So now all those things he tried to avoid through the years are now coming down and coming down hard. And in the process he has been left with a vampire Lieutenant that has no love loss for him, Lines that fight right and left with his body. But the one thing that is sane and going well is his Lyall. Sex is still "hot and great".
Then you have Vision, another Vampire that has been through hard times but now he is on the upswing and has a man that he loves more than anything, Hanz. Hanz is the most perfect Lieutenant that he could have ever asked for. Hanz knew what he was doing; he kept Vision's life in pretty good order. And the great thing about Hanz is that he can take control away from Vision even when vision is the Boss, but there are times Vision needs someone to dominate him and take control away, and Boy does Hanz do that. When he thought his life couldn't be any better, in walks his past love Seraph. They had been made around the same time and had gone though so much with each other. But then Seraph turned his back on him and turned against him for another, which hurt Vision. Now it is years later and his life is back to normal or as normal as it can be. Seraph now works for Lore, a new vampire that wants to take over an older vampire's area. Then all hell breaks lose when Lore takes Lyall, and Janus and Vision must work together to get him back. Janus and Vision have a history of not getting along, but they must put that aside to work together. Will they find Lyall in time?
I so love this series, I have read each one in order and they just get better and better. I love the way Angela Fiddler has made a new type of vampire, one I have never read before. To me, a Lover of Vampire books, this was such a nice new read. I loved the way the author wrote Vison and Hanz's relationship. You have Vision who is a younger vampire but stronger than some of the older vampires. So Vision has to be strong and smart, but when Hanz takes control, oh he takes control away from Vision and gives Vision times when he doesn't have to always be in control, to me that was "Hot". I loved the way she took the men from book 1 and book 2 and wrote this 3rd book with all of them having to work together to save the ones they love. I hope Angela Fiddler writes more books and expands into shape shifters or really any genre, because she is a gifted writer.

Jake had a serious chip on his shoulders, but for good reason. He wants more, he is tired of feeling like he is a sex toy to Kate. She keeps what they do always in private, like she is afraid to show what they have. If she wants to be "His" submissive, then she needs to accept it and show that he owns her body and soul, and be proud of it, not ashamed. He wants to take what they share into the real world, not just in the bedroom. What they have and share is so much more. But can he get her to see that and to not let her fear of what others will think rule there lives? He knows she needs and wants what he can do for her, and will have this woman, and have her now!
There is only one man that can fulfill all her fantasies and that man is Jake. He is the one that can dominate her and she loves it, but what they share still is so new to her, and she is scared to let others know. He wants to not only dominate her in the bedroom, but bring it outside the bedroom into the real world. Is she ready for that? But if she lets him do that, then her colleagues in the District Attorney's office would find out, is she ready for that? But she knows she can't give him up, the side of her that craves submissive desires, can't be shut off any more. So will she give into Jake and let him show who she is?
Doreen DeSalvo writes some of the Best "BDSM" stories that I have read. I loved this story! I loved the way Jake wants to move what they have into every day life, a true Master wants his slave all the time, but knows when to fight for what he wants, and when not to. And Jake knows he wants to dominate her in more then just there bedroom. So will he win? Will Kate see that she wants it but is letting fear of what others will think of her if it gets out? What is more important, people you work for? or people you love and have as your lover and Master? I Just "Loved It".

Adam Holderman isn't the typical twenty year-old, he has a woman called Scarlett that talks to him in his head, that helps him decide when he should go for something, or when something isn't right, what twenty year-olds have that? She always seems to have things to say when she thinks he needs to do something, and that something is "get some" of the new worker at Wild Waters Park. Buzz isn't the norm guy he usually befriends, but oh this man makes him laugh and have fun and for Adam that sometimes is the best thing. See Adam hasn't even told his mother that he is gay. And Buzz is so not afraid of others knowing he is. He wants Buzz's way of life, the freedom of not caring what others think, even if he is different than what Adam thought he would fall for. Buzz dresses like a "Goth", he wears eye liner, even though to Adam that is "Damn Hot", he never thought he would think that. But it is more than that; it is the man behind it all that draws him. For a month now Buzz has been asking him out and their working together is almost over. In a week Adam will be a full time college student again, and Buzz will go full time at his other job. So Adam let's lose and agrees to go out with Buzz. Boy is he glad he did, Adam can't believe how much he gets into this man, and how he makes him feel so good and free. The kinky things they do that night are things that Adam never, never thought he would be into or do, yeah dreams about it, but to do it! Will Adam be strong enough to say this man is who I want, and it doesn't make a difference if he is a "Man" and not a woman? Will Adam be able to stand up to his family or will the outside world tear them apart?
This book was "Great". It was funny, and the way that Buzz brings out the kinky side in Adam was great. The way he makes Adam feel free to love and to show who he loves is great. I loved the way that it showed when you find the one for you, the one true love, they bring out the side that you keep hidden from others and family; that shows true love. I love anything Ally Blue writes, she is an auto-buy because her stories, no matter what genre, are always well written, and show that "Love" conquers all, and who wouldn't want to read that?

As they work together, and flush the killer out, the stakes grow higher when the killer wants them dead. Can Brad and Alex stay alive long enough to catch the killer? And can they stop him before he kills again?
This story was a fast pasted, action packed, high passion roller coaster of a ride. Anita Whiting had me going from the first page. I loved the way that Anita Whiting had Alex not just a normal Private Investigator, no she was a Clairvoyant Private Investigator, my favorite. I loved the way that she shoot the heat between Brad and Alex through the roof, but also she wrote this story with more then just that, but caring and a relationship, that to me is what made this book a "5" in my book. The Intrigue of, "Are they going to catch the killer" or will the Killer strike again, was what kept you glued to the story until the end. I look forward to reading more by Anita Whiting.

Down deep Charity Vincent was still Miss Charity Vincent, a gentleman's daughter, not the whore she was forced to become. Becoming destitute Charity was forced to ether become, Cherry the whore, or something much much worse. But down deep to stay sane she has to keep telling herself she still was the well bred young lady. When Eliot Stevens goes to London on business, he figures why not have some fun along with his business, you can't live sleep your work, so it is time for him to have himself some fun. So when he sees Cherry, he figured why not, she can show him all he needs to know to make a go. So she teaches him what manners he will need so that he fits into the society and not look like a sore thumb. And as payment for her showing him her breading, he will show her the pleasures a woman can feel when she is lucky enough to be with a man that knows what he is doing to please a woman. But in showing Charity these things, it shows her how shallow her life really is, and that she is falling for this man that only shows her kindness and passion like nothing she has ever felt before. What will she do? Let him walk away from her and go back to what she hated ? Or dream for better with a man that can give her the moon?
This was a short but sweet story. This story can show you what could really happen to woman in those times and still the times we live in now. To be made to take this type of life to stay alive, to go against what you feel is right. I felt for this woman, and it just tore at my heart, until Eliot came into her life. I look forward to more by Summer Devon.

Elwyn and his fellow workers are trying to find a great slogan to sell this new product to the public. It is Rookery Cove Aphrodisiac's new product. So Elwyn, the senior ad man that does the campaigns of any new products, needs to find a slogan that will sell this product, but they don't have much to go on with the short message the maker Kyler, the Dark Elf sent to Elwyn. So that leaves Elwyn no choice but to go down to the Dark Elf and try to pry more information out of him on this product. See, Elwyn has had a crush on the Dark Elf and has dreamed and fantasized about him about but never let on what or how he felt. When he finally finds him, it is like a bomb went off, passion hits both of them to where they have no choice but to give in and touch each other until they explode. But in the process, when Elwyn has high passion he shoots light and of course the room they were in was the room with the plants that help make the product. Since Elwyn's luck isn't all that good when it comes to this man, the light that comes from his body after his orgasm, it kills them all. Plants that had taken Kyler weeks to groom and grow. Kyler hits the roof and tells him he needs to go back where he came from. But is that the last time Elwyn will see the man of his dreams? The man he has grown to love and need more than his next breath?
Kyler, the Dark Elf had come up with the new intoxicating beverage that will make anyone's sex drive shoot off the charts. When the ad king Elwyn comes to him to get more information out about this new product, things get out of hand; he loses his head and things go from there. When Elwyn loses control and kills all the plants, Kyler tells him he must leave, but inside he wanted him to stay. See Kyler had been hurt so many times that he had just shut himself off from the part of the world where light comes from, he lives in the dark, where he is in control. But when the chance comes, the Dark Elf takes it so he can see this man that makes him feel alive again. Will he be able to put aside the fear of letting someone else in? Or will he keep living a lonely life where no one can hurt him?
Well, Wow, I couldn't put this book down, and I ran to see if I had the others in this great series so that I could read them also. I loved the way that Kira Stone writes; I have been drawn to her books since the first one came out at Changeling Press. She has a certain way of writing that makes me feel part of this wonderful world and the story she writes, and to me that shows what a fantastic author she is. I can't wait for her next book to come out, I know it will be as good if not even better.
