Fallon is a stripper. Only she doesn't truly strip mostly she just dances in an erotic manner. Needing extra money to pay expenses, such as the boob job she just had she seeks a job on the side. One ad catches her attention, someone is looking for a private dancer and the pay is great. She arrives for an audition, the man is sitting in shadow and she is unable to see him. He starts the music and she dances. Ryder won't tell her any personal information. He hires her as his private dancer and sends her home with a tape to practice with. After she leaves he talks to the whispering voices and the crows that surround him constantly. He has made his decision she is the one he wants. He hates that he will be taking everything from her and that she will be hurt, but he needs her. But it must be her decision or she will become one of the dead whispering voices that follow him around torturing him for the evils he had done. When she listens to his music she dreams that she is making love with Ryder. Only she isn't certain if it is a dream or reality. Suddenly she is very confused.

Ms Cory has scored another hit. Private dancer has elements of mystery, intrigue, and romance. The characters are well developed and believable. The flow is smooth, and the story intriguing. Ms. Cory has written a romance with extra elements to keep you tied to the pages; there is tension and suspense, and mystery throughout the story. I would have liked the sex scenes to be a little longer, but considering the length of this story it was an excellent read.

I respected his need to feel loved by free will. A couple deeply in love they share a powerful need for sex and the enemy character is strong.

Zoey is stranded at a truck top and she and another girl have decided to pair up while hitch hiking for safety. They are in the bathroom and the girl, Zoey doesn’t even know her name, passes out from something she has taken. Zoey doesn’t want to get mixed up with the cop, so she goes to use the pay phone to call nine one one for help. On her way to the phone she is stopped by a handsome truck driver that is very charming. She is about to ask for a ride when the store manager walks up asking her about her friends he has just found in the bathroom. He demands to see her ID and the handsome trucker gives him a hard time and says he is leaving with him. The manager says they cannot leave until they talk to the police. The manager doesn’t trust the truck driver and attempts to get Zoey to stay with him, but she refuses. The trucker hides her in his truck and gives he a coke to drive while he talks to the police. While he is gone she realizes that she had been drugged, which is probably also what has happened to her ride companion. She crawls from the truck hoping to escape. The store manager has disappeared.

At the same time the truck driver had told the store manager to meet him behind the store at the back near the woods. The manager is ready to fight right there. The truck driver says he doesn’t want the girl to see what he is going to do to the manager. Thinking that it might save the girls life he goes around the back of the store to fight with the man that appears to be turning into a werewolf.

Ms. March has written a fantastic story. I was gripped with suspense, and couldn’t wait to read what was going to happen. The characters were great and it also points out the dangers of trusting merely because of a handsome face. The slow was smooth, the sex intense. Although a short this is a great story am happy to recommend.

Genre: Contemporary Vampire

Lars is a love sick vampire that lost his lady love on the night he was made a vampire. He feels certain that his lovely Lila has been reborn and he is going to look for her. He doesn’t care if she is old or ugly as her sweet soul would be inside and that was all that matters he loves her. Going to a fortune teller he demands to hear what he needs to hear not what he wants to her. What she tells him is that Lila has been reborn, but she is not as she used to be. Lars is unconcerned as he had known she would have a new body.

Lars is not gay and is unhappy when he learns that Lila is not a woman. Can he learn to accept this new form, never had he been turned on by a male.

This is an adorable love story. If you aren’t gay or don’t usually read stories with gays it doesn’t matter that it is two males, because you know the female spirit is inside. Straight or gay I believe this will be a pleasurable tale. I am not going to reveal the surprise ending, but it will be totally unexpected. So don’t even bother to attempt to guess ahead of time, just sit back and read the story and enjoy.

The characters are well defined, I knew and understood where each is coming from on an emotional and physical level. Ms. Ellwood has written a very enjoyable, erotic, romance that warms the heart with dreams of undying love. Although I wanted more, I was satisfied with the conclusion, which to me is a sign of a good story.

When he is finally release he slowly begins to realize that he is being set up, by more than one person, and that he and Hood’s sister are stuck in the middle of something but he doesn’t know what or by whom.

The storyline is great. The male character is well developed. The female character is slowly revealed to us throughout the story, which builds mystery and intrigue around the female character. Jack telling the story is interesting, although I am not a big fan of first person. However, Jack does tell his story are though he were sitting across the table from you drink coffee and telling you the events that have gotten him to this point in his life, and he has an interesting story to tell. This is a continuation of the Wanton series and you will see characters that have been introduced in previous books, but this story can stand-alone. You don’t have to read previous versions to understand what is going on.

Only she cannot see his face and doesn't know who he is, or how she met him. Going to the bathroom for aspirin she is sitting on the toilet feeling sorry for herself when the door opened and Chaos stood before. Suddenly she is terrified, Chaos has a terrible temper and a violent reputation. No one looked him in the eye and she just did. She has no memory of how she had hooked up with him, but she waited, knowing he was going to kill her.

Cary Weldon has the heartbeat of tension and romance in this wonderful werewolf tale. The sex is steamy, the flow is good, the characters are believable (I loved the alpha male Chaos),and the story line is intriguing. I was drawn into the tale right away and couldn't stop reading until I finish. This one is a keeper, a recommended read.
