Sorry there haven't been more reviews lately. As you can tell, I have plenty to read. My daughter has a part in The Nutcracker (she's a one of the Mouse kings little mice minions), the holidays, and a new project at work I haven't had the time to sit down and write the reviews for what I've read. You should see a few of them roll out this week though.
They are called Feral Warriors - an elite band of immortals who can change shape at will. Sworn to rid the world of evil, consumed by sorcery and seduction, their wild natures are primed for release...
For a thousand years she has haunted him - Ariana, Queen of the Ilinas, a beauty of mist and light. His love, his life mate ... Kougar believed her lost to him forever, until the truth of her stunning betrayal left him bitter and hungry for revenge. Now she alone holds the power to save two trapped and desperate Feral Warriors.
Ariana, caught in a deadly battle of her own, is neither the soulless creature Kougar believes her to be nor the savior he seeks.
And when darkness threatens to annihilate both races, the greates danger of all becomes the glorious love Kougar and Ariana once shared. A love that must never rise again. A love that has never died.
An angel with immense power and insatiable desire. Adrian Mitchell leads an elite Special Ops unit of the seraphim. His task is to punish the Fallen - angels who have become vampires - and command a restless pack of indentured lycans.
But Adrian has suffered his own punishment for becoming involved with mortals - losing the woman he loves again and again. Now, after nearly two hundred years, he has found her: Shadoe, her soul once more inhabiting a new body that doesn't remember him. This time he won't let her go.
With no memory of her past as Shadoe, Lidsay Gibson knows only that she can't help being fiercely attracted to the smolding, seductive male who crosses her path. Swept into a dangerous world of tumultuous passion and preternatural conflict, Lindsay is soon caught between her angel lover, her vampire father, and a full-blown lycan revolt. There's more at stake than her love and her life - she could lose her very soul.
They say no good deed goes unpunished. Brynna Malak is living proof.
A fallen angel in human form, Brynna is trying to earn another chance at heaven.So far, her road to redemption is littered with casualties, especially since Lucifer's minions are intent on dragging her back to hell. And being mortal only got more complicated since Brynna became involved with Detective Eran Redmond.
Still, Brynna's relationship issues - like the fact that one glimpse of her can drive men crazy with desire - may have to wait. A mysterious "hero" is saving Chicago's citizens from certain death, with strange and sinister consequences. Brynna know too much about demonkind to believe in coincidences. Some dark force is at work here, and Brynna may be the only one who can stop it...
