=====

Note: The author's brand of "paranormal romance" tends to be more complex/spiritual > commercial (lots of ground to cover!). The focus is on the story, not romantic/erotic fluff.

Reviews:

"Devilishly delicious." -- Horror Author, Andy Love

"I really enjoyed this story of an incubus and the woman he transforms...the author really hits her stride in paranormal stories." -- Review @ Bitten by Books

"You're a brilliant writer. [Your books] are not shallow reads--they entertain but also make you reflect on what is really important in one's life." -- e-mail from a reader, 2011 (The Philippines)

Excerpt:

He looked like he did the night before. Same shirt. Low-rider jeans with shreds across the left thigh. One hand was behind his back, and he held it out, presenting a bouquet of white and smoky purple lilies.

"These are for you."

Purple and white -- my favorite colors.

"Th...thank you." The lilies were divine. They were fresh stalks, unbound. "These smell...wonderful."

"They're straight from the underworld, by the way. They are everlasting. They won't die."

Review by: Kait Nolan on Aug. 01, 2010 :
I have to say that this book just didn't work for me. I feel that this was mostly an issue with it not being my type of book rather than many issues with the work itself. If you have issues with your hero or heroine having sex with others, this probably won't work for you either. I should have expected it--I mean, incubus/succubus , hello, but hope springs eternal. That's just an iron clad rule of romance for me. The book was well formatted. There were some editing issues that pulled me out of the story, and it does seem that the author has a little way to go to get into the show rather than tell range of writing, but I'm sure the story would totally work for the right kind of audience. That just wasn't me. I will say I really appreciated the jerk in the book getting his comeuppance in the end (I love that in a story). I shall have to check out her other non-incubus stories. They'd probably be a better fit for me.
