"I am Chanku, Sebastian. After a run, I really want to f***. No strings. No ties. I just really, really want sex. Are you up for that?"

He shook himself, and she thought of a big dog coming out of the rain. But then he glanced down at the front of his slacks and raised his head and one eyebrow. "I guess I am."

Did I get your attention?

As if you didn't already know already Kate Douglas in one of my favorite authors. Not only is her writing smoldering hot but she is brilliant! Dark Wolf is the second generation of Chanku; The Spirit Wild Series is another Slam-dunk from the queen of erotic novels, Kate Douglas.

I have read along while the first generation met, mated, married, and eventually had children. Now I get to travel along with the pack again in this all new fresh look on their society. This generation knows their heritage and makes no excuses about what they are and what they want.

Lily Cheval is basically the princess of their kind and is all Alpha. She has never meet a man who challenged her and her wolf until Sebastian. Sebastian Xenakis is the son of Aldo Xenakis, a dark wizard that the pack has never trusted. But is Sebastian like his father?

Brutal killings are taking place and all signs point to Chanku. The pack feels like they are being set up and suspect their largest critic Aldo may have something to do with it. But Sebastian seems to be in all the wrong places at the times of the killings.

Lily is torn, she feels the pull to this strong man but if he even Chanku? Humans and Chanku pairs never work out. And something isn't right with Sebastian, could it be his fathers dark magic or is he playing Lily?

Dark Wolf is a thrilling and sensual dive back into Chanku society whether or nor you have read the first generation or not do not miss this one.

Fans of the Guild Hunter series or other Nalani Singhs books will not be disappointed with this next installment that has been very much in the making for several books now.  The chemistry between Ash and Janvier has been hinted at in several of Singhs previous works and in Archangel's Shadows we finally get to experience their explosive chemistry firsthand.  The story is intense, dark and intimate.  Singh continues to build on her paranormal world with amazing results.  Readers will enjoy the way she continues to tie in characters and build on a storyline that will keep them coming back for more.

After I read 'The Escort - Book 1', I was desperate to find out what happened next! I had to wait very patiently for the next story to be published and I was so happy that Lucia Jordan released this series as a bundle! The only thing I love as much as well written erotica is a bargain!!!

To recap the first story - Lisa is a high class escort, but for an agency that doesn't expect the girls to actually sleep with the clients. So when she is double booked she has few concerns begging her shy, and naive flatmate Bea to step in for her on a date with two gorgeous, playboy Scottish billionaire brothers! For those of you who are familiar with the author, you can imagine it didn't take long before Bea was facing all sorts of moral dilemmas!

So, I was dying to read the second story after waiting a few weeks since reading the first and - WOW! It was everything I wanted and much more. In this story, Bea is racked with all sorts of emotions after her lusty encounter with the sexy Scottish Rogues! Especially since they left her a lovely present in her purse. But, sensible Bea has gone back to her boring life and is reluctant to agree to see them again when they try to book her services again through the agency she doesn't even really work for. This time the brothers introduce her to the saucy world of BDSM, which I thought was an unexpected twist for the author, but one I really enjoyed!

In Book 3, Bea is feeling very overwhelmed by the attention the Wallace brothers are paying her, not to mention their dominating personalities. Bea is starting to question her feeling for the sexy brothers, and what exactly she means to them.

The final book was exactly what I wanted it to be - Lots of moral dilemmas for Bea, lots of enticement by the Billionaire brothers, and some downright dirty and underhanded dealing by the sexy Scotsmen to get their own way!

This is definitely the best erotic collection I have read so far - and I read more than my fair share of erotica;) If you love extremely well written erotica, with a strong plot and unbelievable desirable heroes then Lucia Jordan is the author for you!!!

 I have been on a mafia kick as of late and I am especially loving the Russian Bratva series even with Seducing The Badman only being book two.  I think its the added edge of danger, darkness mixed with sexually charged chemistry that has me wanting to read more and more about these characters.  The author has placed a warning in regards to triggers and if you have any triggers in regards to sexual abuse or darker reads please keep that in mind prior to starting this book.  While I love darker books I never want to not warn readers of a potential trigger especially for something related to sexual abuse.  Also please make sure you have read the previous book so you are not feeling lost, while this is about a different couple you will want to know what has happened in to first book.

Like I stated above I love a good mafia or Bratva book, add in that it is dark romance and this book whore is in heaven.  Seducing The Badman, in my opinion was even better than the previous book.  I loved the angst, the emotions that I felt, that feeling of your stomach knotting up in anticipation, the pounding of my heart and the fact that I was so completely drawn into the book that I didn't want to have to put it down for any reason.  Emiliya and Radimir will seduce a piece of your heart and soul while reading their story.

Ms. Faiman is an author I only recently had discovered and the more I read from her, the more I am enjoying her writing.  I honestly think that Seducing The Badman is my favorite book from her yet.  I am anxiously awaiting more from this series and waiting to see if she can top this one.

This is a dark erotic story of kidnapping and possession, and it's a fascinatingly good read.  Nora is kidnapped by Julian and taken to a Pacific island, where he teaches her to respond to - and eventually need - his dark sexual needs.  The sex scenes in this book are very erotic and sometimes borderline brutal.  The story and characters are all well fleshed out.  Ms. Zaires is a very talented writer and this book was without the numerous editing flaws that have been found in recent books of this genre.  Also, the book has a REAL ENDING - no cliffhanger! - but it does also segue into the next book, which will continue Nora and Julian's story.  I am eagerly waiting that book to be published, and will put it on auto-buy!

This was a hot dark twisty read about Marlowe and Harley.  The twists and turns kept me on the edge of my seat.  I couldn't aft teasing until I finished this dark sexy story. The sexy times were hot, dark and so deliciously naughty.  This was a great addition to this awesome series by Alta Hensley.

I have been waiting for this book with baited breath ever since I found out there would be a sequel to One Cut Deeper. One Cut Deeper was one of my favorite 2015 read and I was so excited to spend more time with Charlie and Ranay.  In Two Cuts Darker, we meet Vincent, Charlie's brother.  Vincent is just as disturbed and troubled as Charlie (and his heartbreaking past make the reason he is how he is perfectly clear) and he has dark sexual tastes like his brother.  His love interest, Mad, is crazy and you need a crazy take no nonsense woman to be able to take Vincent on.  Like One Cut Deeper, Two Cuts Darker is a dark erotic thriller that kept me on the edge of my seat.  Joely Sue Burkhart gives us these fabulously complex and deeply troubled characters we should probably want to get as far away from as possible, but who manage to get under your skin and steal your heart.  This was a fabulous read and will likely end up being one of my 2016 favorites.

Lyssa does it again! This is an excellent addition to this delightful series. Shy Prince Duncan gets his story, and it is well worth the wait, especially since the beginnings of a spin-off series begin here. Fans of Sanzel will love this, as Lyssa expands her universe to include wolf-shifters (look for these books to come down the pike, still in production). Lyssa's strength lies, I believe, in focusing on the love that the characters feel for one another. Hot sex is always welcome to read, but the deep, abiding emotion that her characters feel for each other is what keeps readers wanting to return to the world of Sanzel. New comers to this series are advised to start at the beginning, to have a true appreciation of this exceptional series

Two of my favorite dark authors collaborating yet again on another storyline. Who wouldn't love it.  If you are a fan of dark reads then this one is for you.

Through the Soldiers of Wrath MC we were introduced to Zeke and of course his daughter.  This story dwells on the making of who Zeke came to be and also the creation of his daughter.

I hate to reveal too much in a book when I am giving a review so I will try to keep this short and simple...Zeke is into acquiring girls who like sex, prostitution but for whatever reasons find themselves in the hands of abusive pimps, johns, etc.  He acquires them and gives them a better life of selling sex.

Through this system he falls upon a broken girl name Alessandria. At first glance, he could tell that this girl did not want to be here. That she did not enjoy selling herself for sex. Someone had pushed this girl into this world to gain information.  Zeke begins to see something else in this girl and that's where the story begins. Their walk through his tormented world full of darkness.

This was a really great story. Easy to read. One that you will not want to put down. I enjoyed it thoroughly. It even gives you an insight into the next Soldiers of Wrath MC involving Striker.

Yummy!  That sums up this book, but I guess I should write more.  ;)

This is book 2 in the Masters of Shadowland, and it is yummy!  Dark Citadel introduces you to Kari and Master Dan.  She was reluctantly taken to beginners night at Club Shadowland by her current boyfriend who turns out to be a wanna-be master that is rude, crude and a jerk.  Kari was able to realize she wanted more but wasn't confident in the man she was currently involved with, and with good reason.  Master Z recognized that Kari was a true submissive and hooked her up with Master Dan.

I really like that Cherise Sinclair again introduces us to a real woman with insecurities, it is so true to real life that I easily connected with Kari and with Master Dan.  Even Master Dan has a hidden insecurity after losing his lover and is now afraid to love again, but can he get past that loss and love again?  This newbie sub Kari awakens his sexual desire and it's game on!  Steammmmmmmmmmy!

More Masters are introduced and we get to see more of Master Z and Jessica too!  I loved this book!

Wow. Just wow.
After the book hang over that was Salvatore, I was so excited to read Dominic, and I was not disappointed! It's dark, raw, and gut-wrenching perfection. I couldn't put it down, and was so glad i didn't. With plot twists added to the beautifully broken characters, this one is a must read.
Dominic has spent his life being beneath everyone and every thing. Never enough. Always the monster. Gia is the daughter of a foot soldier and not like anything Dominic saw coming.
The dark drama and constantly twisting plot will keep you turning pages and going through every emotion with Dominic and Gia. Love, hate, anger, empathy, loathing, and did I mention love. Another beautiful five star read by Natasha Knight!

Happily I just realized that these 12 hot pages are part of a longer novel that I already own!  Thank goodness for that!  And, better still, it's free on every website except Amazon at the present time.  This bit zeros in on the scene when Lia and Ryder stop pussyfooting around each other and actually act on their overpowering feelings.  But, hot as they are for each other, this is still not the time to make love and join their two wolves together.  (And there's no doubt in my mind that it's going to happen soon!)  So, when you hit the last page of this out-take, write your review, and head over to THE ALPHA'S FIGHT, and see what happens next!  Personally, I can't wait.

This is the best Dark Series book in a long while. This is a return to Feehan's early books that made me love the series. It was great to see so many of the couples from earlier books, something Christine has never been good at including in new books. Dark Celebration being the best exception.

Fen, the male protagonist, is a kind of hybrid of a Carpathian and a Werewolf. A major story element in this book is that the wolves don't allow hybrids to live because they are too dangerous. However, what they really fear is a vampire/werewolf hybrid, which is a particularly dangerous creature.

I enjoyed the adventurous spirit of Tatijana, one of the dragons, who along with her sister, were rescued several books ago. She's an intelligent, independent and strong heroine. She and Fen make a great couple; he's not overly dominant and she isn't a doormat. They're both cautious yet interested in one another. It was good to see their passion not overtake them. Sometimes, the Carpathian lifemate attraction element seems to control the couple. While it is very present in this story, neither lets it lead them or direct their actions.

It was wonderful to see so many previous characters. Gregori is always a plus. We were also introduced to Dimitri and Skyler's story. There is also the possibility of romance between Tatijana's sister, Bronnie, and Zen, an elite werewolf that hunts rogues. I think there were several great story elements. The werewolves are pretty kickass. The werewolf element could have been kind of hokey but I thought it worked really well. I have not been much of a fan of the jaguar element done in previous stories. The Carpathians have their work cut out for themselves with the rogue werewolves that they battled a number of times as well as with the legitimate werewolves that are not their enemy, at least not yet. We'll find out more about the werewolf/Carpathian conflict in Dimitri's story.

Fen is fierce, smart, loyal and extremely powerful. The Carpathians are a little leery of him and the werewolves would destroy him if they knew of his mixed blood. The mixed blood has repercussions for mating with Tatiajana and for Dimitri should their relationship become known by the werewolves.

In the end, however, the werewolves do discover Dimitri's mixed blood and that seems to be where the next book will start. I'm looking forward to Skyler and Dimitri's story.

My favorite part of the story is the introduction of the children. All of the books have addressed in some fashion the difficulty that Carpathians have reproducing and how it is leading to the extinction of the species as well as taking away hope for the unmated men. Gregori's twin girls were adorable and I like that the next Prince's Second may very well be a female.

All in all, this was a very enjoyable read. I had reached the point where I was about to give up on the Dark Series. I liked the Drake Series but I haven't been a big fan of Feehan's other series. This book is old school and why I started reading the series in the first place. I'm very much looking forward to the next book.

Michelle M. Pillow never ceases to amaze her fans.  Her writing has progressed and has reached hidden depths with each book.

This is the second book in the Tribes of the Vampire series.  Here, we see Jaden, half mortal, half vampire.  She has been trained to kill vampires and spends her nights hunting the dark creatures that roam the streets looking for food.  Being a dhampire she is more than armed for the job.  She has never doubted her cause, or her Uncle's mission.  But one night, a mission goes badly wrong and she finds herself doubting all she has been brought up to believe.

Tyr is a Dark Knight.  He belongs to an elite clan of vampires who judges and executes his own, according to the Vampire Council's orders.  Fiercely loyal and honourable, he is sent to investigate charges against Jaden and her Uncle.  Are they involved in secret experiments with vampires?  Are they involved in capturing vampires and for money letting humans torture, rape and kill them?  But when Tyr meets Jaden, he is surprised to find a hunter who is sick of the hunt and who only wishes to find peace in death.

Truly a wickedly dark, delicious tale, Ms Pillow has used wonderful imagery to bring her whole world of vampires to life.  Beautiful descriptive passages help the reader to see, feel and experience the emotions described.  Two very complex protagonists, Tyr and Jaden battle their own emotions, their fears, their love, their very beliefs throughout the whole exciting story.  The dialogue is sassy, witty, the plot flows at a very good pace, so that the reader is excitedly turning the pages to find out what happens next.  There are a bevy of secondary characters that bring the story depth and life.  The sex scenes are wonderfully intimate, sensuous, passionate and truly very romantic.  Can you tell that this reviewer loved this story?  It was difficult to leave and was begging to be read in one sitting.  A tale, truly to be read slowly and savour, this reviewer knows for certain that lovers of vampires will be thrilled by this offering from Ms. Pillow.  Keep up the good work!  This reviewer will be waiting not so patiently for the next one in the series to be published.

LOVE Sherrilyn's work! Been hooked on her Dark-Hunter series since the beginning. Addicting! Love the Were-Hunter books in the series as well - wonder if that line will eventually spin-off to become it's own series. Great to see the novellas all in one book.

Wolf is one of the 12 Masters at Blasphemy, an exclusive club for the BDSM lifestyle. Wolf gets stood up from a perspective submissive and notices a beautiful woman!
Olivia ( Liv) is on the date from hell and needs to escape to the bathroom but runs, literally runs into the sexiest man shes ever seen.  She may be in need of a rescue from her horrible date, Wolf is eager to help her out!
I like that there is a back story for Liv, she has been shamed about her fantasy. Liv is an exhibitionist who just met her perfect match. Meeting Liv has given Wolf a fresh new look on life and his place as a Master at Blasphemy. Wolf and Liv were made for each other!
I loved their story and I think this was the hottest book in the series thus far! My favorite scene was the first time Wolf and Liv were together in the hotel, the window,

Loving Clarissa's work, I couldn't wait to read this. This is one hell of a dark romance and is a twist on the Beauty and Beast element.

Viktor is a man that hides away in the shadows, he is complicated, angry and very dangerous. Having gone through a harrowing experience he has cut himself off from the outside world. He indulges in call girls, where there is no physical contact, that is until one girl fascinates him.

Alexis is a young woman that is doing the best that she can to support herself and her sister. Resulting in the only job that can provide for the two selling her body is the only way.
Making sure that she is always safe, she takes on jobs provided by her pimp that pay well. One such job comes along has consequences she never thought could happen.

This is another fantastic read by Clarissa, and I highly recommend to lovers of dark reads.
