When Regina’s friends insist on setting her up a “Fantasy Fix” to help her get over her cheating ex, she dreams up some kinky out-of-this-world encounters that they could never possibly bring to life. But the next thing Regina knows, her friends have got her laced into a shiny black corset, tight leather pants, and a sexy pair of stilettos. It’s time for some downtown vampire-fantasy fun. . . .
The Vampire Ball in Manhattan’s East Village isn’t really Dmitri Vidâme’s idea of a good time, but as a member of the Council that governs the Others, he has to keep an eye on all the young vamps who prey on the pretenders. After he feasts his dark eyes on fiery Regina at the bar, he knows that he must have her. But for the first time Dmitri meets a woman who is more than a match for his indomitable will. And he may be the fantasy Regina hoped for… until she—and her feisty friends—discover her sexy new lover’s bloodsucking secret…
THE MIDNIGHT HOUR
by Karen Robards
Grace Hart is a single mother and a juvenile- and family-court judge in Bexley, Ohio — and her daughter, Jessica, has gotten out of control. When Jessica goes into what might be diabetic shock, hunky Tony Marino thinks Grace should practice what she preaches as a family-court judge. But there’s more to what’s going on than either Grace or Tony realize. While the love story that gently interweaves through the pages of The Midnight Hour grows more and more powerful, it’s definitely the bit of mystery and the thriller aspect of this novel that take over. What working mother hasn’t worried about the well-being of her child? Robards takes this to the nth degree with suspense and action that rival that in some of the best popular fiction of our day.
The love interest here, macho cop Tony Marino, has a very human side, too: Although he’s overly judgmental of Grace Hart’s ability to watch out for her own child, it’s mainly because his own daughter died. That loss has colored his world; he has both built armor around himself and become empathetic to the plights of others. Grace begins to find evidence of a stalker — and someone has comeintoher home and gone through her things. Soon the threat of violence escalates, and Grace realizes that she and her daughter are no longer safe in their own house. Tony moves in to help protect them, and the novel steams up with his presence. But who is after Grace? Who would want to harm young Jessica? Don’t miss this terrific new novel from one of the best romantic-suspense writers around. —Jessi Rose Lucas Jessi Rose Lucas’s first romance novel, The Swan Prince, is forthcoming. She lives on the New England coast and is currently working on her second novel, The Tarnished Knight, a medieval romance about Lancelot and Guinevere.

Jeesh, where do I not want to go???? I don’t know if I could pick just one. My husband grew up in a Navy family and has been all over the place. Me, Washington, Oregon, Idaho, California, Vegas(don’t get excited, I was 12 at the time) and Alaska. That’s not enough for me. There is sooo much I want to see and do. Hawaii, New York, Florida, Ireland, England, I could keep going. Where I would really love to go is Italy. My brother in law just moved there and if my kids would quit getting sick, maybe someday we can save up for a visit

Five stars are like six-pack abs on a really tan, hunky guy not wearing much. They make us drool, we stroke them (the books, not the guys! - sometimes the guys...) and want to make sweet, sweet love to them. Five stars is the hottest, we mean, highest honor.
Four stars is a total hunkalicious of burning love, but maybe we didn't like his hair for some reason. We still think he's hot, and we're still going to recommend him, we mean, the book, to readers because it's a damn fine ass, we mean book.
Three stars = that awkward guy at the party. He's cute and you know he's cute, and if you look at him the right way, he even looks like Brad Pitt a little, but there are flaws. Surprisingly, he's good in bed (because you got drunk and shit happens).
Remember that - yeah we don't either.
One star is like expecting a somewhat attractive guy and being sent a Grumpy cat meme. We appreciate the effort, but no. This book was not for us. Grumpy cat might want to use it for litter though.
I have a couple one is St Barts (tropical and warm), England I love anything regarding it Castles and what not, Ireland and Sweden.
sorry couldn’t pick just one. I love to travel.
