Book 1 in the Fever Series, I have had this book on my TBR pile for a long time. I can’t believe I didn’t pick it up until now.
MacKayla Lane is living a good life with manicures and clothing a key part of her life. Suddenly her sister is murdered while studying abroad in Ireland. Before she knows it she is drawn into an unbelievable paranormal world of which she plays an unknowing part. While trying to track down her sisters killer she meets Jericho Barrons. A man who is much more than he seems and recognizes that MacKayla may hold to the key to his search for an ancient magical book the Sinsar Dubh. This book is bringing about the destruction of the world as we know it.
The third in one of my fav kick-ass series, Tempting evil is even better than
Kissing Sin. Riley has advanced her training and is making her way up to a full guardian. She is not happy about this, but knows she has not moral choice in the matter.
Having found the compound of past nemesis Deshon Star through an inside connection, Riley prepares to go undercover as a female wrestler to gain access to the compound and eliminate Deshon and end his genetic experiments. Ok, so that sounds like a cheesy plot and perhaps it is, but Arthur has a way of building a complex world while weaving in erotic sex and interesting plots. I could not put this one down.
To honor the passing of an favorite author, I pulled this off my keeper shelf. I cannot remember how long it has been since I read it, ages for sure.
The interesting thing I am finding is that as I mature, my views and tastes are changing. When I put this on my shelf another decade ago I get the feeling I like it for different reasons then I do now. As an old time bodice ripper it has the elements of a captured, forced slave all the rage in its time. That time has long gone, but it still has elements the keep it on my favorite list.
This book is an old favorite that is part of my keeper shelf. I don't remember how long ago I read it, but every once in a while I pull it down and breeze through it.
Shay Morrison is a nude model who makes a living bearing her "assets" - in a tasteful manner of course. Shay decides to visit her mother who has recently been remarried. While visting her mom's home she is walks in on her new stepfathers son, Ian Douglas whom is exiting the shower. She is quick to admire his body if not his singing talent.
Later downstairs when Shay is introduced to her mom's houseguest/step son she puts her foot in her mouth when she discovers he is a widowed minister. Shay is extremely put out by Ian's condesending manner and proceeds to try and seduce him. Being a minister as well as a healthy man he is torn and tormented.
I love stories with sexual tension that cannot be acted upon.
Grade: A and a keeper.
