The Demonica series goes as follows:Pleasure Unbound - Eidolon's storyDesire Unchained - Shade's storyPassion Unleashed - Wraith's storyEidolon, Shade and Wraith are Seminus Demon Brothers (Seminus demons are sex demons). These are steamy books, but also a lot of action and funny one-liners. I have really enjoyed this series and am very happy Continue Reading

One Nighters
Last night I sat down with When Twilight Burns, the fourth book in the Gardella Vampire Chronicles series by Colleen Gleason. I did not get out of my chair until I finished the book. At one point I looked up, husband was trying to talk to me (how dare he :) and I realized I only had about 100 pages left. I hadn't meant to read the entire book in one sitting. I meant to read for a bit, get some laundry done, ask husband how his day was :) But that is just how good these books are. Now I know, Continue Reading

On the rare occasion I don’t read at night
Being home with two preschool age boys all day, where nap time went bye-bye a long time ago, my only chance to read is after they go to sleep at night. So, it takes a lot for me to put my book down and do something other than reading in the evening hours. There are only four television shows I can think of that will drag me away from my book:1. True Blood - HBO.Well, how can I resist this show! Based on Charlaine Harris' Southern Vampire series, this show has sexy vampires and good looking Continue Reading

First of all, I don't want to give too much away because I find it so much more enjoyable when you start a book if you really don't know what is going to come at you. Continue Reading
