Blog Tour: Seduce The Darkness by Gena Showalter

Bride is a vampire and as far as she knows, the only one of her kind. She's desperate to find someone like her so that she can understand herself. Her only true friend and the most special person in the world to her Aleaha, has vanished and Bride is on a mission to find her.

Devyn, who has sex written all over him, runs into Bride and soon becomes obsessed with her. He's not one to be tied down so he's enamored with Bride and furious with her all at the same time. They are both stubborn and try to deny the mutual attraction.

There is one slight problem. There is a Queen alien who plans to pass on her deadly infection to the people of Earth. Can Bride and Devyn keep their passion and tempers at bay long enough to save their planet?

I'm a HUGE Paranormal fan. I don't know what it is about vampires, werewolves, etc., that excite me but I can't get enough. I did not want to put this book down! Gena's going on my list of author's I'm obsessed with. If you like Paranormal Romance, you should reserve your copy now.

You can visit Gena's site here.

You can check out Gena's blog here.

You can friend her on Myspace here.

Thank you to Sarah from Pocket Books for sending me this book to review.

Skin Free Review Continued

Hi guys, I'm adding to my original Skin Free review which can be found here.

My mom is 52 and suffers from eczema and she's always nervous about using new products. Most soaps that she has tried just end up irritating her already irritated skin. But after she felt my arm after one time of using Skin Free, that was enough to convince her. She even used the Sugar scrub on her face (this was a big shocker because her face is more sensitive than the rest of her body). She looked younger. I'm not talking like 5 years younger or anything but her face was brighter and her skin was smoother. My mom isn't very girly. She doesn't enjoy being pampered like us normal females, LOL. When she came out of the bathroom I could tell by the look on her face that she was as awestruck as I was when I used it. She's sold on this product as well.

My nephew, Damien, will be 2 in October and my sister has struggled to find something that will help relieve his eczema. When I told her about this product, she was skeptical because her son also has sensitive skin and allergies. Due to her desperation, she agreed to use this product on her son after my mom and I both tried it and all it did was clear up some spots. (I'm not talking magic but I've only used it twice and I've noticed a huge difference in the texture of my skin. I've only used it twice because I'm trying to use it sparingly because it is somewhat expensive, worth every penny, but the company I was working for had to let me go because of the economy and I was the newest employee.) Anyway, this worked on my nephew. My sister was almost in tears because I was able to find something that soothed her baby's skin. She's sold on this as well.

And now for the best part! Julie at Skin Free has given me permission to give away a $30 gift certificate to one of my readers!!

Blog Tour, Review & Giveaway: Knight of Desire by Margaret Mallory



Knight of Desire tells the story of a young woman, Catherine, who is forced to wed a violent man. When she has had enough of his behavior, she betrays him and sends word to the king that her husband is a traitor. Her husband is captured and killed. The king has decided to let Catherine's fate and her home lay in William's hands. He has given William the choice between sending Catherine to the tower which would undoubtedly result in her death or wedding her the very same day she became a widow. William is an extremely honorable man and decides to take Catherine as his wife.

This book is filled with romance, lust, love and betrayal. I loved this book! If you enjoy Historical Romance, this is a MUST READ!



AUTHOR BIO (taken from here):
MARGARET MALLORY recently surprised her friends and family by abandoning her legal career-and her steady job-to write tales of romance and adventure. At long last, she can satisfy her passion for justice by punishing the bad and rewarding the worthy-in the pages of her novels, of course. She lives in the beautiful Pacific Northwest with her husband and their two college-age children. KNIGHT OF DESIRE is her first book so she would dearly love to hear from readers.

You can visit Margaret's site here.



Thank you to Anna over at Hachette who sent me this book to review and who has given me permission to give away 5 copies of this book.

Blog Tour, Review & Giveaway: My Forbidden Desire by Carolyn Jewel







Alexandrine has just found out that her brother, Harsh, is still alive. He's got some very unpleasant news for his sister. Her birth father wants her dead. Harsh decides to make his friend Xia stay with her as her protector. The only problem is Xia hates witches with a passion but not nearly as much as he hates Alexandrine's father who enslaved him.

Alexandrine and Xia both fight their desires for one another but in the end are unable to help themselves. They fall deeply for one another and end up making some mistakes that may be irreversible.

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. If you like Paranormal Romance then this is a great book to add to your to be read list.
