Appearing to her as a man, he learns she is Merys, a descendant of his last priestess. Though filled with lust, Sobek believes Merys deserves to be more than just his mistress.

Blurb:
Resurrecting a horrifying and romantic narrative that broke fresh ground for its genre, this soon to be re-released novel sets a vampire story in contemporary Los Angeles—the pleasure dome of late 1990s sex, drugs, and rock ‘n’ roll culture. Unlike the vampires that came before her, Justine does not shun crosses, she watches horror movies on television, and she sets upon her prey in an almost apologetic way, never killing her victims but leaving them unconscious instead. She soon finds herself entwined in a very human sexual relationship with Keith, a down-on-his-luck rock guitarist whose hands have recently been mangled by a gang of drug dealers. Justine nurtures Keith out of …

Guest Post: Integrating Fantasy and Reality by Tiffany Allee + Giveaway
Today we welcome the lovely Tiffany Allee to Book Lovers Inc, her debut paranormal romance, The Banshee Charmer (lookout for our review which is also going up today), is releasing tomorrow (24th January 2012)! Tiffany is here today to talk about the integration of fantasy and reality, something that is not easy to pull off! Take it away Tiffany…
I have always loved fantasy stories. They take me away to worlds that are very different from the one I live in everyday, offering an escape. I also love romantic suspense and cop shows. With Banshee Charmer, and the rest of my series From the Files of the Otherworlder Enforcement Agency, I bring these two loves together.
Banshee Charmer takes place in a world where otherworlders—non-human creatures—are an integral part of the world. Creatures such as banshees, succubi, vampires, selkies, and witches are an accepted part of society. If …

Book Blurb:
It’s the quiet ones that take you by surprise.
Beth Danube’s emotionally abusive husband is dead and buried. So is her heart. It’s no big deal, she has all she wants: her three little boys and a fresh start in a small Alberta town. What she doesn’t want is another man in her life—not now, maybe not ever.
After ten years of unsatisfactory, missionary-position sex, she never expected her libido to reawaken. One look at sex-in-boots Daniel Coleman in a Calgary bar, though, blows the dust off her sexuality.
Sensing an edge of desperation, even fear, beneath …
