The Demon You Know (The Others, Book 3)

The Demon You Know by Christine Warren


My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Call me slow, I'm just starting to figure out that many of the books I'm reading are Romance novels first and paranormal second. This series by Christine is a good balance of the two. The mythology in this urban fantasy is well done and the romance while sexually active doesn't over reach into pure porn like some stories I've read.

Bottom line is this is an entertaining series and I'm sure to read the next two.

Cheers!

She's No Faerie Princess (The Others, Book 2)

She's No Faerie Princess by Christine Warren


My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is Christine Warren's second book in The Others series. Like Cynthia Eden's Midnight series there is quite a bit of sex in this book, but the sex here was integral to the story, and told with an intensity and purpose that both stimulated and amused us at the same time.

This is a world of Urban Fantasy. Through 2 books we have been introduced to various types of Shapeshifters, some pack oriented others not so much, Vampires, Witches, Demons, Faeries, Pixies, and Imps. I have enjoyed her mythology and by the end of the second book we have much history revealed and we're learning more each story.

Well Done Christine, I can hardly wait to start the next story.

Midnight's Master

Midnight's Master by Cynthia Eden


My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The third in Cynthia Eden's Midnight series. I continue to think she is too preoccupied with sex and making it graphic must make it better? The sex in this book though like her first Hotter After Midnight is constructive to the story and so I'll forgive her for being a little overzealous in this department. That aside I do love the mythology that she has setup in her world and thoroughly enjoyed the story.

I'm tossed up though because I think she is getting to be a tad too predictable, so while I enjoyed this book it may be the last of this series that I read.

Of course since this is currently the most recent book she has written in this series I have a year or so to change my mind before she comes out with another. :)

Dead to the World

Dead to the World by Charlaine Harris


My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This was the second book in a row that had the higher level of mystery and suspense that I enjoy in my favorite paranormal reads.

In this book Charlaine expands her world with the entry of witches and a closer look at Pack structure and shifter lore.

Add to this a surprising romance and you end up with a very entertaining read.

On to the next.

Club Dead by Charlaine Harris

Club Dead by Charlaine Harris


My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This story was more to my liking. Varied characters, suspense, romance, action and some mystery. It has taken three books but the author is finally adding some depth to her creations. This book is also the first that I've read that is a total departure from the TV series (which I love). I'm glad I have finally out distanced the screen writers. Although season two already is diverging in many ways from Book two.

Both the books and the HBO show True Blood are worth the time.

Looking forward to the next book.

Hotter After Midnight Review

Hotter After Midnight by Cynthia Eden

rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story revolves around Dr. Drake a shrink for the after dark crowd. Like all good paranormal writers she has little things in her mythology that makes this world her own. And this world is definitely hers.

I have read many Urban Fantasy / Paranormal Romance, but this is the first book that I would have to give an adult label. It is an excellent story that has a few explicit sex scenes in it. The truly interesting thing to me was that the sex was totally integral to the story. It was raw, hot, instinctual sex appropriate to how the characters were progressing.

Time to start the next one in the series Midnight Sins then at the end of this month the third book comes out, it should be interesting.
