    A Weekend for Reviews


    2010 - 04.05

    Posted in Crimson Carousel, Crimson Pleasures, Ellora's Cave, Reviews | Comments Off

    Wow, there were a bunch of review notifications in my inbox this morning and most of them were wonderful. Makes for a happy Monday morning.

    Here are snippets of a few:

    •  “a wicked, sensual read that I totally enjoyed from the first page to the last.” Contessa, Fallen Angel Reviews.  5 Angels!

    Contessa reviewed the first three books in the Crimson Carousel series and gave all three stories 5 Angels!

    • “A perfect ending to a fantastic series… (A Taste of Dawn)” Emily, Sensualreads.com

    • “Anyone who loves consuming emotions, blatant eroticism and characters that really complement each other will not be disappointed with Crimson Awakening.” Cris, Fallen Angel Reviews

    Cris didn’t score Awakening very high, but her main objection was that the book needed to be longer. If a reader wants more, I never consider that a bad thing. :-)

    Susan from Night Owl Reviews had this to say about CRIMSON AWAKENING, “a fascinating vampire world that I love revisiting with each of her stories in her Crimson series… pulse pounding excitement. Enjoy!”

    Thank you Susan!

    Book Three in the CRIMSON PLEASURES series
    is now available at Ellora’s Cave!

    While a stand-alone, this novel is best enjoyed when read with Crimson Thrall and Crimson Prey.

    Chantel Demarko is about to embark on a journey of self-discovery. Driven by instinct and soul-deep hunger, she will experience glamorous balls, pagan rituals, and the uninhibited decadence of ancient Rome.

    Two men await her surrender. Dark, demanding Thorne. And adventurous Jaron. Each appeals to her in their own way, but together they create a balance, an unshakable symmetry she has only imagined in her wildest fantasies.

    As she abandons herself to the wonder, she discovers the true potential of pleasure and finds reality itself is far more expansive than she ever dreamed. Boundaries crumble and time itself is redefined. But with new awareness comes new danger. Mysteries must be unraveled and Chantel must make painful choices before she can secure a future with the men she loves.

    Reader Advisory: If you’re looking for the gentleman vampire, this is not the book for you. Blood is their life. It is very much a part of who and what they are.

    More vampire fun in the Crimson Pleasures series! CRIMSON AWAKENING is now offfically contracted. Chantel Demarko was introduced in CRIMSON THRALL. She was so fiesty she had to have two heros.  LOL  This story went in a completly different direction from what I had planned. I can’t wait to see what readers think of CROMSON AWAKENING.

    Mary and I can’t start editing until the contract is processed and I won’t recieve a release date until the manuscript is edited. So the waiting isn’t over. At least it’s officallybegun…

    I’ll keep you informed as details become available.
