BOOK DESCRIPTION

Lethal Beauty




As a covert operative in Elatia's elite military, Sway Waybourne is used to fending for herself. But a powerful uprising means she's now responsible for guarding the leader of a neighboring planet. Within seconds of meeting Dason Cavaletti, sparks fly and Sway realizes she's gotten more than she bargained for.

Dason is curious about the arousal taking over his mind, body, and soul. When he can no longer stand the overwhelming desire, he confronts Sway. But the disturbing news she delivers isn't at all what he expected. Mating with the gorgeous woman could kill him….

WARNING: Sarcasm galore from a fiery heroine who can take care of herself thank-you-very-much. She won't take anyone's guff-even from the leader of the free universe no matter how handsome he is. A unique genetic quirk leads to inventive foreplay, one blazing hot hands-on session in the bathtub and a gender bending encounter that signals this ain't your father's Star Trek. No redshirts were harmed while writing this novel.





EXCERPT

Lethal Beauty




"This is…quite the situation."

She blew out a breath as she slumped onto the far side of the mattress. "You can say that again."

Sensing her frustration-which matched his own-he reached over and clamped his hand around her ankle. She didn't fight as he dragged her across the bed and into his arms. "It's not as if it's the end of the world."

"No. It's just…I'm used to being able to handle any situation."

"And you don't know how to handle this."

"Not really."

"I'm sure we can come up with ideas. In fact, I'm thinking of one right now."

"You're going to be the death of me."

"Way I understand, it's the other way around." Her laughter rang out in the room, shattering the tension. He pulled her closer, content and sated for the moment. "You're a remarkable woman. Strong, determined, not to mention sexy as sin."

She squirmed against him and he took it as a signal she wasn't used to hearing such things said about her. Her reaction made him decide to shower her with attention while they were trapped together.

He was both amused and terrified by her reactions. Her extraordinary skill set was evident and he found her tenacity admirable. She possessed a vulnerability, though she clearly did her best to hide that aspect of her personality. By his guess, she thought it would show a weakness if she let others know about any flaw in her perfection. A good covert operative couldn't have any visible flaws. Otherwise, they weren't very good at their job.

By the looks of things so far, she was very, very good at her job.

And for reasons he didn't completely understand, he had begun to fall in love with her.

This weeks Top Ten List

Top Ten Books I'd Want On A Deserted Island





Witchblood

Title: Witchblood

Author: Emma Mills

Witchblood was very different than any book about vampires that I had ever read. Each new vampire had to do whatever they were told to do by the one that turned them.










Shatter Me (Shatter Me, #1)

Title: Shatter Me

Author: Tahereh Mafi

I loved Shatter Me it was a great book with a lot of twist and turns that keeps you turning pages and wanting to know more. A page turner that will keep you up half the night.













Darkness Falls (Darkness Falls, #1)

Title: Darkness Falls

Author: Jessica Sorensen

I really enjoyed reading Darkness Falls it was a great read. I love reading anything about vampires, post-apocalyptic and the paranormal.











Fire Baptized (Habitat, #1)

Title: Fire Baptized

Author: Kenya Wright

I really, really loved Fire Baptized. I loved that it had a new twist on all the different supernaturnals like Vampires, Shifters, Fairies, Witches etc... It kept me on the edge of my seat all the way to the end before the murder was revealed.







The Sword and The Prophet (#1)

Title:The Sword and The Prophet

Author: Missy LaRae

The Sword and The Prophet is one of those books that is going to stick with me for years to come. One that I can't seem to get out of my head. You know its like when you get a song in your head and keep hearing it over and over and over. That is how this book has been for me. Instead of a song stuck in my head there's a book stuck in my head.







Intangible

Title:Intangible

Author: J. Meyers

Intangible was a fast, enjoyable read a real page turner. I loved all the characters. I also loved that the mix of fairies and vampires as well as gifted humans.












The Witching Pen (The Witching Pen Novellas, #1)

Title:The Witching Pen

Author: Dianna Hardy

The Witching Pen wasn't exactly as good as I thought it would be. It was a hell of a lot more than I ever imaged it to be. Dianna threw in just enough to keep you hanging on and wanting more.










Of Poseidon (Of Poseidon, #1)

Title:Of Poseidon

Author: Anna Banks

When I read the ending I was like "no, no, no you can't do this". I was very shocked at how it ended but I did love it. I mean its like your sitting on the edge of your seat and you can't put it down because you just got to know what is coming next. What is Anna Banks going to slam us in the face with next? And then when you least expect it bam "the end". I thought about that ending for days and days. Who am I kidding I am stilling thinking about it. I guess I will for along time to come.







Dead World

Title:Dead World

Author: Shaun Jeffrey

I loved the whole concept, idea that is being portrayed in Dead World. It is not just about zombies or Gods in general. I love the aspect of telling a story with in a story. Shaun Jeffrey has an amazing, awesome way of telling a story. He is a brilliant story teller. To understand what he is trying to say you would have to have an open mind. The whole time I was reading Dead World I kept thinking that Shaun Jeffrey has a way of telling stories that makes me think of Stephen King.







Wanted Nightmares

Title:Wanted Nightmares

Author: Pura Preis

Amaya is a very strong willed girl she knows who or what she wants out of life. She is strong enough to stand up for what she wants and fight for it if that is what it takes. She learns that she is far stronger than she ever realized. She will face obstacles and come out on the other side flairing better than most ever could.
