    Jocelyn Dex author of A Demon’s Gift @jocelyndex #RLFblog #PNR #99cents

    Jocelyn Dex author of A Demon’s Gift answers five easy questions to help readers
    get to know her better.

    Author Bio

    Jocelyn was born in Iowa and currently resides in
    hot-as-hell Texas. She shares her home with her very own 6’4″ alpha male
    and varying numbers of spoiled cats and dogs. Teaching one of her dogs to file
    his nails is one of her all-time favorite accomplishments.
    She thinks dragonflies are awesome, spiders are creepy and
    it’s rumored that she sleeps with a machete by her bed in case zombies attack
    in the middle of the night.
    Jocelyn’s writes paranormal and contemporary romances that
    include humor, lust, love, and four-letter words on the way to a
    Happily-Ever-After.
    What is your go-to meal
    when you dine out?
    Well, that depends on where I am!
    If I’m at a Mexican restaurant, it’s Spinach Enchiladas.
    Love those things. YUM! If I’m at a seafood restaurant, it’ll probably be
    shrimp and oysters. Or if in season, I might get some crawfish. At a sushi
    joint, I’ll definitely be ordering the New York roll. Oh my god, those things
    are good!
    What’s your favorite hashtag
    to watch on Twitter?
    #tenqueries
    Describe the perfect vacation.
    Sun, sand, palm trees, clear blue water, iguanas walking
    around, and a beer in hand.
    Tell us about your
    favorite toy as a child.
    Toads, tadpoles, rocks, trees… Haha. I was a tomboy as a
    kid. But, actual toys? Um…Oh, I know. I had a Merlin. Does anyone else remember
    those?
    When you read for pleasure,
    what kind of books do you choose?
    I pretty much stick with Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance,
    and Contemporary Romance. I occasionally deviate, but Paranormal tops the list
    for sure.

    Cordelia is a demon hunter in training. Passing her final
    test will allow her the freedom to celebrate her first Christmas, but one demon
    stands in her way. As much as she tries to fight it, to convince herself he
    repulses her, her body comes alive, betraying her, each time he’s near.
    Argoth, a sex demon, is locked in a cell, used as a punching
    bag for the demon hunter trainees. The only thing he looks forward to is his
    training sessions with Cordelia. The first time her fist connects with his
    face, he knows she’s different and that he has to have her, to save her, to
    make her his.
    When Argoth’s truth turns Cordelia’s world upside down, will
    she give in to her desires or run for her life?

    Sexy to Go Jocelyn Dex + 10 more @jocelyndex #RLFblog #boxedset

    Today’s author interview is with Jocelyn Dex.

    About the Author

    Jocelyn’s writes paranormal and contemporary romances that include
    humor, lust, love, and four-letter words on the way to a Happily-Ever-After. And
    sometimes she writes short, dirty stories just for fun.

    Interview with Jocelyn Dex

    Why did you write this
    book?
    Sexy to Go, Volume 1 was actually Eva Lefoy’s idea. She wanted
    to put together a variety of sexy short stories from different authors for readers
    who are on the go. There are paranormal and contemporary stories in the collection
    and we plan to release a new volume each month. It’s a great way for readers to
    find new authors and authors to find new readers.
    What is your favorite
    genre to read?
    Paranormal is my favorite. Give me a sexy demon or vampire or
    elemental (anything supernatural) and I’m happy. It’s also my favorite to write,
    but I like to change pace and read/write contemporaries too.
    Who is your favorite character
    from fiction (not including your own)?
    There are so many! But, one of my favorites is Wraith from Larissa
    Ione’s Demonica series. He’s bad, he’s good, he’s oh-so-sexy.
    What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you
    in coming months?
    I’m working on a couple of short stories for the next volumes
    of Sexy to Go. So be on the lookout for some more super-hot shorts coming soon!
    I’m also working on the next book in my Hunting Hell series. Watch out for that
    one too.
    Please tell us about your
    latest book.
    Sizzling short stories from top-selling authors. Sample romance
    in all its flavors in Sexy to Go. From paranormal to contemporary, you’ll find your
    short, sexy story fix here. Look for a brand new collection every month.

    Dai’s Dark Valentine @pendarielraye #RLFblog #PNR

    Dai’s Dark Valentine
    by Dariel Raye 
    This quick interview includes info about the author, and introduces
    the story. Join the author’s Facebook party on Feb 21st for fun and giveaways.
    What happens when a sheltered cat-shifter and a dark fey come
    together?
    Three-hundred years is a long time, but left to its own devices,
    what began as the vendetta of one man can grow to encompass even more formidable
    hatred.
    Daitre Salons is a beautiful but naïve heiress whose true heritage
    has been kept secret even from her. Now, her abilities are emerging and her father’s
    enemies want her dead, but what bothers her most is that her new husband “in
    name only” insists on treating her like a child.
    Joban Beaucoup, professional guard to the Salons family, and
    dark fey (alternate spelling from Vodouin origin), has chosen to leave the quaint
    yet suffocating French town of his orphan-childhood and venture to the Americas,
    but he needs one thing he cannot concoct, despite his magical abilities: a wife.
    When Joban agrees to marry Daitre and take her to the Americas
    with him, he carries her three-thousand miles away, then whisks her three-hundred
    years into the future to assure her safety, but while Daitre struggles to adjust
    to this strange new world, manage her newfound powers, and make peace with her feelings
    for Joban, Joban learns that even here, their enemies have followed them, now more
    deadly than ever.

    Character Interview: Dawn – Reborn to Burn @TheAnnaDurand #RLFblog #PNR

    Reborn to Burn
    by Anna Durand 
    The character interview allows a hero or heroine to tell
    readers about himself or herself. Today’s interview is with Dawn from Reborn to
    Burn.

    Interview with Dawn

    Tell us about yourself,
    please.
    Until yesterday, I was a mummy who died 3,000 years ago in Ancient
    Egypt. Scientists regenerated my body, though nobody knows how or why I woke up.
    Since I have no memories of my previous life, I let my hero Jake name me. He chose
    Dawn, because the Egyptians believed the dawn was a time of rebirth.
    What can you not do (but
    need to do) during this story?
    I need to remember my first life, understand why I was reborn,
    and escape from the scientists who are hunting me.
    What inner doubt causes
    you the most difficulty?
    I feel I shouldn’t be alive; I’m an abomination, a freak with
    DNA from frogs and microscopic creatures. Am I truly human again, or something more
    sinister? The question haunts me.
    In the story world your
    author created, explain what it is you fear most and why.
    I worry I’ll turn into a zombie or some other unnatural monster.
    Jake says that’s ridiculous, but who knows? Hey, I’m a resurrected mummy girl, so
    anything seems possible.
    Tell us about your significant
    other, that person who makes living worthwhile.
    Thaat would be Jake Maxwell, the man who helped me break out
    of Redeo Biotech. He claims he’s just a grad student, but I suspect he’s a secret
    agent or maybe a superhero in hiding, given his talent for outsmarting the bad guys.
    He doesn’t see a monster when he looks at me, just a woman — and he awakens desires
    in me I never imagined existed.
    What would that person
    say about you?
    Jake says I’m a woman, not a thing. He calls me beautiful, sexy,
    and wonderful — and more importantly, he makes me feel that way.

    About the Writer

    I’m an award-winning writer, a reader, a freelance librarian,
    and an audiobook addict. I specialize in sexy, suspenseful paranormal romances.
    Why did you choose this
    character for the interview today?
    Reborn to Burn, and whole Reborn series, is all about Dawn’s
    journey. Jake undergoes a transformation, too, but the stories revolve around Dawn’s
    literal rebirth and the questions swirling around her origins and nature. She is
    a mystery — a woman with no memory, no name (until Jake christens her Dawn), and
    no explanation for her awakening.
    When writing the book,
    what did you discover about this character that surprised you?
    I uncovered a shocking secret about Dawn and what rebirth has
    done to her, but I wouldn’t want to spoil the big surprise! I also learned she’s
    willing to sacrifice herself to save Jake, which surprised Dawn, too.
    Are any sequels planned
    for this book?
    Yes. Reborn to Burn is the second book in the Reborn series,
    with Reborn to Die as the first one. The third installment, Reborn to Avenge, will
    be published later this year.
    What genre(s) would you
    like to write that you haven’t tried yet?
    I’d love to try historical romance and urban fantasy. I read
    voraciously, and those are two of my favorite genres — after paranormal romance,
    of course!

    About the Book

    Title Reborn to Burn
    Genre Paranormal romance
    Author Anna Durand
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    After three thousand years as a mummy, Dawn awakened to a dangerous
    new reality where science and the supernatural collide. Her only ally is Jake Maxwell,
    a mysterious grad student with an unusual talent for evading bad guys. Dawn’s resurrection
    spells trouble and power for the scientists responsible, and they have no intention
    of letting her go without a fight. But as she flees with Jake, a shocking revelation
    about her newfound life rocks them both. While their enemies close in, they discover
    a fiery passion — and a bond deeper and stronger than time itself. But can they
    outrun the past before their future is shattered?

    Ley Lines: Ruled by the Moon @TheGoddessNaomi #RLFblog #PNR

    Ruled by the Moon
    by Naomi Bellina 

    By Naomi Bellina

    I’m minutes away from hopping on a plane leaving St. Louis Missouri.
    I’ve been visiting my mom and sister and I’m waaaaaay past ready to go home. For
    one thing, I’m freezing my butt off! Time to get back to Florida. I grew up in St.
    Louis and I knew without a doubt, it was not the place I wanted to spend the rest
    of my life. Now before you St. Louis dwellers start blasting me for picking on your
    city, let me say, there are many wonderful features of this area. Fans love and
    support their sport teams, for sure. St. Louis offers a wide variety of good food
    and entertainment, a fantastic highway system, nearby wineries to make you drool
    and the most beautiful autumns you’ll ever see.
    But not for me. I longed for something more in whatever place
    I lived. I can’t describe what that something was, but knew I’d recognize it when
    I felt it. In Ruled by the Moon, magical people such as witches and werewolves are
    drawn to Nocturne because of powerful ley lines that run through the area. I’ve
    always been fascinated with ley lines so I did some research and found they could
    very well be running through my fictitious Midwestern United States town. Check
    out this Google
    page for some great maps of ley lines. They’re everywhere! According to Wikipedia, ley lines are
    “…supposed alignments of numerous places of geographical and historical interest,
    such as ancient monuments and megaliths, natural ridge-tops and water-fords.”
    I believe they’re spots that contain certain kinds of power.
    On this visit to St. Louis, I checked in to see if I could feel
    energy from that strong line running through Missouri. Nope. At least not anything
    I could pick up. Or maybe, the energy that flowed was exactly what I found unpleasant.
    Maybe it affected me on some level I wasn’t even aware of. I live in Florida now
    and though there are many qualities I love about this state (it’s soooooo much better
    to be here in February), it’s still not quite my perfect home. I’ve always been
    drawn to mountains and after a recent visit to Taos, New Mexico, would love to explore
    that area. Maybe one day.
    How about you? Do you have a place that resonates with your soul?
    Thank you so much for visiting today.

    About the Book

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    A psychic vet, a secretive werewolf, a menace stalking the shifters.
    Welcome to Nocturne.
    Dylan is a werewolf with a problem. He shifts at the new moon
    as well as at the full moon. He was born a werewolf, not made like most shape-changers
    and due to these unique traits he’s avoided joining a pack and has given up hope
    of having a normal life. Morgan is a veterinarian, ready to be on her own for a
    good long time after leaving a cheating, spineless husband. She has a plan for her
    life that doesn’t include a bossy, furry man.
    Both are drawn to Nocturne, a town filled with magic due to a
    strong convergence of ley lines in the area. Morgan and Dylan recognize a connection
    when they meet, but neither one is looking for romance. After a harrowing encounter
    with a panther shape-shifter, they must combine forces and work together to uncover
    a menace that threatens the town. If they can learn to trust each other and let
    their guard down, they have a chance to solve the mystery and open the door to love.
