First Four Friday - Alien Embrace

Chapter 4:
    Amelia sobbed as she huddled on her lounger.
    Two days had slipped by since the clan's visit.  During that time creative inspiration reached a fever pitch, and she painted almost nonstop.
    She knew the consequences of prolonged work to her injured hands.

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 50

     Vax stared at him for a few moments, his eyes growing bright again with tears.  Finally he answered, "I don't hate you Bacoj.  But I don't like you very much right now either."
     He stood and walked to the door, his head down as if it was too heavy to hold up.
     "Where are you going?" Japohn asked softly.
     "I need to get out of here for awhile.  Looking at the two of you makes me sick."

Releasing today!

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 49

Lindsey shook her head, tearing up now over happy memories.  "Who would have ever imagined my scabby-kneed kid sister would be Empress of an alien empire?  You never fail to surprise me, Jess."

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 48

The women knelt on the seating cushions and peered at the Kalquorian computer, a paper-thin flat console lying on the table.  Shivering with excitement Tara spoke with the eagerness of a child on Christmas morning.  "Will someone tell me how to do this?"

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 47

Vax hunched and turned away.  Bacoj and Japohn exchanged a dark look, and Lindsey couldn't take anymore.

Releases tomorrow! (Or so they tell me)

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 46

Bacoj was crying.  The big, confident man had tears streaming down his cheeks, dripping off his chin to wet her face.

Countdown to Alien Salvation, Quote 45

The Dramok yanked her clothes off with almost brutal force.  He ravished her breasts with powerful hands as his mouth took hers with cruel passion.  She moaned, a little frightened and a lot turned on by his ruthless possession.

Alien Conquest and Unholy Union Nominated by The Romance Reviews

Wow!  I just got the word from The Romance Reviews that Alien Conquest was nominated for Best Erotic Paranormal Romance - Alien/Other World 2011 and Unholy Union was nominated for Best Erotic Paranormal Romance - Angel and Demon 2011.  I am utterly amazed to have been considered.

I'm in shock, so if I seem a little less than crazy/happy/thrilled, it's because I'm still trying to wrap my head around these honors!  I'm pretty sure I'll be dancing with joy when it sinks in. 

There are some really wonderful books nominated.  If you want to vote for these and other categories, you can do so here:  http://www.theromancereviews.com/bookvote.php
