Hot Summer Nights Giveaway Hop

 On this stop on the hop Im giving away Betraying the Pack by Eve Langlais! She always rights the bestest and hotests scenes and Im glad to beable to share it with the lucky winner! 

 Pack law states she can have up to four mates, if she can find the courage to choose them.

Escaping a kidnapping duo, Bailey runs into a naked man in the middle of the woods. And he’s not alone.

Rescued by a quad of hunks, then kept against her will, she doesn’t know what to think or do—other than scream that is—when she discovers they are werewolves. Even more frightening, they want her as their mate despite her human status.

But there’s more to Bailey than meets the eye, and she comes to the attention of an evil force that wants to use her. Can Bailey keep herself from his clutches, or will he somehow force her to betray the pack?

And just how does a girl raised with human morals come around to accepting pack law which states females can choose up to four mates, and more shocking, take them to her bed, all at once?

Warning: Not all gorgeous blond cowboys with dark-haired sidekicks met in a bar will be werewolves, but if they are, prepare to howl, because when it comes to loving their mate, nothing beats their hands-on tag team approach.


Note: All the sexual focus is on her. There is no male on male action.

Review: The Dead I Owe

The Dead I Owe by Julie Ann Michaels
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Destined for greatness in the corporate world, Olivia Dahl's only regret is that an ideal love life eludes her. After crossing paths with the irresistible vampire, Benjamin Ward, Olivia is propelled into the middle of a demon invasion and forced to rely on the vampire that took her life. Olivia fights to save the city from being overrun by demons while resisting her unyielding attraction to Benjamin.

Together, can they stop a demon invasion? Can Olivia learn to forgive the Vampire that changed her life forever?

In a world of vampires, demons, and heady revelations, Olivia struggles to find new purpose.

This was a great and fast paced read! I recieved this from the author and the blurb looked good enough to give it a go. Boy am I glad I did!

After a date with Mr.Wrong, Olivia's sick of being alone. But finding "The One" is not as easy as she thought. Meeting the sexy Benjamin after her unimpressed date gives her hope that there are some great guys out there, unfortunately when she wakes up the next morning she realizes Benjamin has turned her into a vampire then she's thrust into a war between the vamps and demons! A chance meeting with Olivia and never in his wildest dreams did he intend for her to be his progeny. All he wanted to do was get some nookie and some blood and be on his merry little way but he never intended on enjoying her company then losing control.  Now he's got a sexy, foul mouthed and headstrong, baby vampire to take care of along with a war between Demons and Vampires. Him and those of his brethren are the only ones who stand in the way of Demons enslaving humans and becoming a scourge of the earth. Demons drink the blood of humans as well but the problem is, thats its an addiction to them and they almost always kill their victims, whereas vampires need humans to survive so they tend not to kill their victims. There's change erupting in the underworld, the heir to the throne is hiding in the human realm and the current ruler of the Demons is after her and wants her dead so he can continue to rule. Unfortunately she believes she is human and since her powers have yet to emerge she's a sitting duck until that happens. Now its up to Olivia and Ben to find her and protect her before the Demons get to her because she's the only one who can stop the Demons from crossing over into the human realm. The problem is...when she realizes who she is, will she want to close the gates and stop them from taking over the human realm?

All in all, I greatly enjoyed this read and am eagerly anticipating the next book in this series! I recommend this to all Paranormal Romance fans!

Review: Bared to you by Sylvia Day

Bared to You by Sylvia Day
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Published April 3rd


Our journey began in fire... 


Gideon Cross came into my life like lightning in the darkness-beautiful and brilliant, jagged and white-hot. I was drawn to him as I'd never been to anything or anyone in my life. I craved his touch like a drug, even knowing it would weaken me. I was flawed and damaged, and he opened those cracks in me so easily... Gideon knew. He had demons of his own. And we would become the mirrors that reflected each other's most private wounds... and desires. The bonds of his love transformed me, even as I prayed that the torment of our pasts didn't tear us apart...


At first I gave this book 4 stars...dunno why! There have been a lot of comparisons between this book and Fifty Shades of Grey. Christian Grey is a billionaire, is sexy, enigmatic, has a dark past and enjoys sex toward the dark of nature....in my opinion, thats where the similarities cease. Gideon Cross is in a class all by himself, with his dark and brooding demanor and drop-dead sexiness! He's a sex maniac but only with Eva and though he enjoys that sex in a dominating nature he doesn't delve into the inflection of pain as our favorite Dom, 50! Although both of these alphalicious sex Gods come from difficult backgrounds they are vastly different. During the story of Eva and Gideon we get a glimpse into his plethra of issues, he's controlling but in no way as ridiculous as our boy Christian. Gideon realizes that he needs Eva on such a fundamental level and it freaks him the freak out that he's that dependent on someone for his sanity.


Eva is a very likable character. She's no damsel,  not a virgin...at all and is a well off independent woman in her own right! I loved that about this book. Gideon lavished her with expensive gifts and didn't have to fight with her to take them...like someone we know(Ana)! She has a dark past of her own which makes it difficult for her to trust and having a controlling and mercial man like Gideon is a tough pill to swallow but she learns to love him anyway. Another thing I loved was Cary, Eva's roomate and bi-sexual best friend. He contributed to the light and funny side of Eva's personality and made the whole story more interesting since Cary has his own shit he deals with as well! I don't want to give much away so Ill keep this review short so....


All in all, I absolutely loved it especially on audio! Sylvia Day hit a home run in my book. It was dark, sad and the sex scenes between Eva and Gideon were scortching hot! I recommend this to all the 50 fans and those that are not but love a great erotic romance with depth! I cannot wait to read more about this fantastic couple...they've got a long road to recovery!


5Stars!

Fire Burnin'

Once Burned by Jeaniene Frost
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Released June 26th by Avon


"You think my blood is the only tie between us?"
His voice was low, yet edged with palpable hunger. It seemed to rub me in places I'd only ever touched before, making my anger fade under a flash of desire. Vlad was so close that his hair was a shadowy veil all around me, and when he began to caress my face with light, sure strokes, it was all I could do not to close my eyes in bliss.
"This is our true tie," he whispered, his breath falling hotly onto my lips. "You're meant for me, and I will have you."


A tragic accident leaves Leila disfigured and with supernatural powers where she can connect to someones past, present and future with just a mere touch as well as the power to channel electricity. Finding herself disowned by the only family she has and working as a sideshow freak in a carnival, Leila along with her best friend Marty, a midget vampire, she's starting to build a life for herself and survive the best way she knows how. But an accident at the local bar, her anonymity is threatened and is no longer just Frankie the carnie, she attracts the attention of some evil vamps that kidnap her and she's forced to locate the infamous Vlad.


Vlad Tepesh, master vampire and fierce protector of his line, he runs his vamps with an iron fist. But a chance meeting with the lovely Leila, threatens his emotionless existence and awakens feelings believed to be long destroyed. Together with Leila its a race to uncover the vampire set out to destroy him. And now that he has Leila he's desperate to keep her by his side.


After finding out that Jeaniene Frost was adding another spin-off to her Night Huntress series and it featuring the sexy, cocksure, enigmatic Vlad I was ecstatic to say the least! But imagining it and reading it are two different things. In one word A-fucking-mazing! Vlad and Leila are more than I expected and I enjoyed every page of this book. As I read it in like a day.


Vlad was certainly a cocky bastard and Leila is a perfect counterpart for him. She's fierce, strong and totally kick ass! She was able to keep up with him physically and their banter was great. She's definitely a woman that knew how to get her way and fought for what she believed in. One of my favorite scenes is when she wanted to set a trap for the bigbad in the story, where she was trying to get Vlad on the same page....she tried her best to stroke his ego so-to-speak(not that she needed to..its already big enough as it is):


"Not Dracula," I said with a faint smile as I turned around. "Vlad Tepesh former viovode of Wallachia and the most arrogant, deadly, frightening man I've ever met."

His lips curled with disdainful amusement. "Compliments won't sway me more than the word please, Leila."

"You take those as complements?" Gretchen was incredulous.

"Of course." His smile bared fangs. "She named all my best qualities."


Not being able to touch anyone with out killing them and/or causing them serious harm, Leila has had to face some serious obstacles add that to knowing all the sins of those she's touched and everyday life for her is a struggle. But the through it all Leila still kept her spunk! All her challenges, she still had serious lady balls and I loved that about her. She was able to keep up with Vlad and his cockiness.


"You're hot, big deal," I shot back, refusing to let his knowledge of my most intimate thoughts daunt me. "I'm attracted to a lot of hot guys. If Chris Hemsworth were here, I'd light him up like a firecracker with how fast I'd jump on him."

"And that would kill him," Vlad noted.




Speaking of...Vlad was just wonderful! He was definitely his fierce, alphalicious self and I fell in love all over again! Fans of the Night Huntress series will just gobble this one up...I know I did! His self assuredness knows know bounds which made for an enjoyable read.


"If I didn't want you so much", he said in a deadly purr, "I'd let you keep fucking me with your gaze, but you're making me impatient."


All in all, awesome start to a series that has me begging for more. I found myslef laughing out loud and fanning myself on many occasions. Leila and Vlad are the best couple second to Cat and Bones and I'm dying to read more about these two....especially since we were left with a tantalizing line from dear Leila:


"Get ready, Vlad," I whispered into the empty room. "This is far from over."

My Favorite Book Giveaway Hop

 This giveaway is hosted by Reading Romances, sharing our favorite romance books this year. 

Im choosing 2 books to giveaway and they are Gabriel's Inferno and Gabriel's Rapture by Sylvain Reynard.

 Enigmatic and sexy, Professor Gabriel Emerson is a well respected Dante specialist by day, but by night he devotes himself to an uninhibited life of pleasure. He uses his notorious good looks and sophisticated charm to gratify his every whim, but is secretly tortured by his dark past and consumed by the profound belief that he is beyond all hope of redemption. 

When the sweet and innocent Julia Mitchell enrolls as his graduate student, his attraction and mysterious connection to her not only jeopardizes his career, but sends him on a journey in which his past and his present collide.

An intriguing and sinful exploration of seduction, forbidden love and redemption, “Gabriel's Inferno” is a captivating and wildly passionate tale of one man's escape from his own personal hell as he tries to earn the impossible...forgiveness and love.

 Professor Gabriel Emerson has embarked on a passionate, yet clandestine affair with his former student, Julia Mitchell. Sequestered on a romantic holiday in Italy, he tutors her in the sensual delights of the body and the raptures of sex. But when they return, their happiness is threatened by conspiring students, academic politics, and a jealous ex-lover. When Gabriel is confronted by the university administration, will he succumb to Dante's fate? Or will he fight to keep Julia, his Beatrice, forever? In Gabriel's Rapture, the brilliant sequel to the wildly successful debut novel, Gabriel's Inferno, Sylvain Reynard weaves an exquisite love story that will touch the reader's mind, body, and soul, forever.

Both of these books are fantastic and I just fell in love! Gabriel and Julia are a great couple and their love story touched me so Im sharing it with you all! Just fill out the rafflecopter form below and Good Luck;)

This week's question:

Q: If you could “unread” a book, which one would it be? Is it because you want to start over and experience it again for the first time? Or because it was THAT bad?

HeatherJay's answer:
I couldn't pick just one but I did narrow it down to two. The first is Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold. Sometimes a topic is so disturbing that it should not only never be a topic of conversation let alone the entire subject of a book. Call me crazy but child rape and murder is at the top of the list. I found this book to be gratuitous and ridiculous and just because the topic is shocking does not mean that you are a good author. The second is Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger. I was brought up to believe this was a classic and one of the best literary pieces of the 20th century. FYI, it BLOWS!!!!! It's the story of a privileged, spoiled, shallow brat who spends the entire book feeling sorry for himself. I'd read Twilight again 10 times instead of reading either of these books! TEAM EDWARD!!!

Dirty Little Secret

Dirty Little Secret is a weekly meme hosted by us at Under the Covers. Every Thursday we get to know other bloggers and our readers more intimately by asking them a question hoping to reveal their dirty little secrets. We hope that you will all join us!

This week's question:

What book would you recommend to to heat up your summer!

HeatherJay's Answer:
I recently picked up Molly Harpers' How To Flirt With A Naked Werewolf and I loved, loved it! It's the perfect combination of sexy and fun. It reminded me of one of my favorite old T.V. shows, Northern Exposure, but with a paranormal twist. Perfect for a good beach read!

Northern Exposure Even in Grundy, Alaska, it’s unusual to find a naked guy with a bear trap clamped to his ankle on your porch. But when said guy turns into a wolf, recent southern transplant Mo Wenstein has no difficulty identifying the problem. Her surly neighbor Cooper Graham—who has been openly critical of Mo’s ability to adapt to life in Alaska—has trouble of his own. Werewolf trouble. For Cooper, an Alpha in self-imposed exile from his dysfunctional pack, it’s love at first sniff when it comes to Mo. But Cooper has an even more pressing concern on his mind. Several people around Grundy have been the victims of wolf attacks, and since Cooper has no memory of what he gets up to while in werewolf form, he’s worried that he might be the violent canine in question. If a wolf cries wolf, it makes sense to listen, yet Mo is convinced that Cooper is not the culprit. Except if he’s not responsible, then who is? And when a werewolf falls head over haunches in love with you, what are you supposed to do anyway? The rules of dating just got a whole lot more complicated
