Pick of the Week

(June 27th – July 3rd)

Been a while since I got off of my ass and did one of these.

There are a few good ones out this week – Pamela Palmer has her fourth Feral Warriors book out, called Rapture Untamed.  Nancy Gideon‘s Chased by Moonlight sounds good, too.  And of course, Gena Showalter‘s The Darkest Lie is a biggie.  But for me, my pick of the week is from Cynthia Eden.  I’ll be Slaying You is the second book in her Night Watch series, giving us a fresh take on the world of “the Others”.  Her writing is smart, her stories are sexy with a bit of mystery thrown in, and I always look forward to her books.  Book three, called Eternal Flame, is due out at the end of November.

From the back cover…

Cynthia Eden returns to the realm of the Other, where the supernatural bounty hunters of Night Watch work hard and play harder…Sandra “Dee” Daniels is a vampire’s worst nightmare. Sure, she couldn’t get up to five-six in the highest heels money can buy–not that she ever wears heels. But the monsters in her past and the stake in her boot are enough to keep most bloodsuckers interested in staying undead out of Baton Rouge.

But there are changes afoot on her turf. Rumors of a Born Master in town–a vampire so powerful he can make the streets run with blood. And a new face in Dee’s dive bars and alleyways–Simon Chase, a strong, sexy shadow with a haunted past of his own. Simon knows a lot about the dark side of Dee’s work. He knows even more about how to make her body spark with desire. But the hot lust shimmering between them is only the beginning. Because Simon also knows a secret that will change Dee’s life–if she can live long enough to uncover it.
