Review: 

So I was a little concerned that this story could turn into some sort of GI Joe wanna’ be with a sappy side story, but it so didn’t.  The story was exciting, yet down-to-earth.  I could totally see this happening, which is key in a good fantasy story.

I was hooked from page one and couldn’t put it down.  I cannot wait to read the next books in the series.  I already added them to my wish list on Amazon and on Goodreads, and I don’t do that very often.  I also told my kids about it and told them they had to read it…and then bugged them to see if they had read it yet…another rarity.  I have found a new “one of my faves” author.

I give this story 5 out of 5 clouds.

Loup-Garou for You by Katalina Leon

Historical Paranormal Erotic Romance

Releasing September 27, 13

  Bayou Country, 1834. Aubert Marston awakens on the eve of his twenty-seventh birthday to discover he’s undergone some disturbing physical changes. His body is bigger, stronger and hairier than it’s ever been, and burns with the lust of a beast. To make matters worse, a hundred guests are about to arrive for the plantation’s annual ball. A mysterious young woman named Corrine appears in his home, tempting Aubert to unleash the inner lycan, and family secrets from a medieval past surface. Corrine lures Aubert to a bayou camp of Cajun Loup-Garous—werewolves. Aubert’s wealth and good looks are no advantage here. He must surrender to his feral nature and fight tooth and claw against another male pack member to claim Corrine as his own. Inside Scoop: This story contains mild bondage, southern hospitality, consensual sexual torment, female/female, male/male, anal play, cage fighting and unfettered animal lust. Enjoy!

Review: 

 

Who can resist a good pirate love story?  Certainly not me.  I’m a fan of all the Pirate of the Caribbean movies, the pirate ride at Disneyland, and any romance involving a pirate.  So I am pretty critical when it comes to these stories, and this one did not disappoint.

I loved that Her Eternal Rogue combined several genera of storytelling into one great story.  There was a kidnapping, blackmail, extortion, vampires, romance, erased memories (and I would have keelhauled him when I found out about it), a love triangle (although it was pretty one-sided), pirate fights, and high society.  The author expertly weaves all these different topics together into one excellent story.

I give this story 4.5 out of 5 clouds.

BLURB:

Vivienne Callahan has known only hardship. As if growing up with an alcoholic, drug addicted mother wasn’t traumatic enough, she’s escaped from her physically and verbally abusive boyfriend only to struggle every day to make ends meet as a waitress in a Minneapolis diner. 

Along comes Mikah Blake, a handsome stranger who quickly takes an unexpected and persistent interest in her. On the surface, “Mr. Suit” seems to be Vivienne’s opposite: rich, well-fed, successful. As Vivienne will learn, Mikah is more than he seems, and for reasons unknown, he’s determined to be her knight in shining armor. But after having finally found her own two feet after years of abuse, it’s difficult for her to accept Mikah’s help. 

Will her body’s unexpected response to Mikah’s touch be reason enough to overcome her pride and traumatic past and learn to love and trust? Or will her past, refusing to be left behind, come back to claim her?

BIO:

It is from Glendale, Arizona that Zoey Derrick, a mortgage underwriter by day and romance and erotica novelist by night, writes stories as hot as the desert sun itself. It is this passion that drips off of her work, bringing excitement to anyone who enjoys a good and sensual love story.


 


Not only does she aim to take her readers on an erotic dance that lasts the night, it allows her to empty her mind of stories we all wish were true.
Her stories are hopeful yet true to life, skillfully avoiding melodrama and the unrealistic, bringing her gripping Erotica only closer to the heart of those that dare dipping into it. 
 


The intimacy of her fantasies that she shares with her readers is thrilling and encouraging, climactic yet full of suspense. She is a loving mistress, up for anything, of which any reader is doomed to return to again and again.

Review: 

A modern-day Cinderella type story where the Cinderella doesn’t want to be saved.  This twist on the story type takes this story from mundane to enticing. 

Vivienne is used to standing on her own two feet and handling life, as hard as it is, on her own.  She is not interested in having some rich “suit” take care of her, even if he brings out feelings she didn’t know she had.  Mikah only knows that Vivienne brings out feelings he thought he would never feel again.  He wants to be with her and take care of her because she makes him feel.  Can these two find a happy ending?

I give this story 4 out of 5 clouds.
