Ten Nights of Love: Shelly Laurenston

For most of the previous entries in this Ten Nights of Love series, I automatically knew who the various authors were going to be and all I had to do was make sure I arranged them in chronological order to tell the story. For this last post, though, I knew what the content was supposed to be about but had three author under consideration and three different reasons for selecting them, which for some odd reason totally and completely confused me, but more on that in a moment.   You see, a couple of years ago, I actively started dipping my toe, heck, my entire foot, into the so-called erotic romance sub-genre. I call it “so-called” because I’m still not entirely convinced that all the books with that tag are labeled … Read entire article »

There be dragons here

Recently while looking for something to read that had dragons in it, I was digging through my ebook shelves and realized that I’d collected quite a few favorite dragon shifter stories. How that came to be, I’m not quite sure since dogs and cats are what usually pass for the norm in shifters. Anyway, I thought I’d share my list of top author & series that I tend to reread the most. And, yeah, quite a few of them are labeled erotic romances, but not all. D’Arc, Bianca – Dragon Knights Maiden Flight (erotic romance) Border Lair (erotic romance) Ice Dragon (romance) Prince of Spies (erotic romance) Wings of Change (erotic romance) Fire Drake (erotic romance) Dragon Storm (erotic romance) due out Nov 17, 2009 Aiken, G. A. – Dragon Kin Dragon Actually (romance/paranormal) About A Dragon (romance/paranormal) Mumford, Debbie Sorchas’ Heart … Read entire article »

A Sexy Shifter collection

Okay, so this week I found out my several year shapeshifter binge wasn’t over when I splurged on several titles as Samhain that have that theme. Do you see me worried? No, you do not. One set of stories I picked up is introduced thusly, according to a post entitled Dreamy Steamy Shape-shifters: What if you had a shot at just one wild night with the man of your dreams, the one you always thought was out of reach? What would happen if a dream lover you thought was nothing more than a nocturnal fantasy showed up in real life? What if you found out the guy you’d been dreaming about since you were sixteen had been dreaming about you all along? As to the individual stories, I’m still working my … Read entire article »

Da Twilight Zone

So, I’m reading a new ebook called Dragon Actually over the weekend and really enjoying it. I mean laughing and giggling my way through it and not in a bad way. Then it occurs to me that I know these characters. I’m sitting there happily reading along and suddenly absolutely sure I do know this wacky family of dragon shifters. Only I’m scratching my head trying to figure out whether I’ve read this specific story before or not. I mean it was just weird. Because I knew I hadn’t read the author before. Or so I thought. Anyway I kept reading. And then it hit me. I really did know the characters. Those exact characters. Just not the story. I went straight to my eBookwise Librarian and pulled out the other book that … Read entire article »

Never say never, maybe

Not sure if this is solid proof of that old maxim or just more evidence of it but since I’ve been dipping my toe into the, shall we say, erotic side of storytelling, I’ve probably run into several stories that made me think I’d never like certain things. No, I’m not listing them here for you. Suffice it to say that one of them, though, was menages and that goes for larger group situations too. So, imagine my surprise when I checked out a set of stories this weekend, starting with the one that didn’t have “that stuff” and then branching out to the rest and found I actually enjoyed the stories. Okay, some of the funny business in at least one of the stories I could’ve done without but for … Read entire article »

Vampire, werewolves & superheroes, oh my!

Dithering on the Susan Sizemore book (see yesterday’s blog entry) made me realize that I think I may be vampired-out, which is weird, because I don’t even read vampire romances, not counting Feehan’s Carpathians and Sands’ pseudo-vamps, that is. And I haven’t read that many werewolf books either. Uh, actually come to think of it, the only one I can even remember at the moment was Night Play by Sherrilyn Kenyon. I think that’s the right one. (Vane’s book?) And I started to say alien for the last but decided I really hadn’t read enough of those to count anyway so I changed it to something close but dearer to my hear. Superheroes. Yeah! I’ve read every one of those I can find and for the most part enjoy them. … Read entire article »
