30 Days of Demons, Day 22: Demonica
(Day 22? Day 22!!!)
Today, I want to talk about one of my favorite demon series–the Demonica series by the wonderfully talented Larissa Ione. :-) I know many of you have read these books, and if you haven’t read them, well, here is your chance to start! (I’ll be giving away a Demonica book–winner’s choice–to one commenter).
Larissa’s Demonica world is dark and sexy and so enthralling that I literally couldn’t put the books down when I read them. Yes, they were that good. Her first book, PLEASUR

Hi, everyone! You’re in for a serious treat today–one very lucky commenter will win an ARC of Jessa Slade’s October release, SEDUCED BY SHADOWS. I took a look at the cover the other day–and, wow, what a cover. Wait–look. See what I mean?
This looks like one fantastic new series, and I’ m eagerly waiting for the October release! Jessa, welcome to my demon fun!

First, let me say Thank You! to Cynthia for letting me play on 30 Days of Demon. This is my first guest posting, very much in advance

30 Days of Demons, Day 20: Seduction
[image error]
I think part of a demon’s charm is that he (or she) can be incredibly seductive. And speaking of seduction…today’s Snippet Saturday focuses on seduction, or, rather, failed seduction. All of the authors participating in this Snippet Saturday are posting excerpts (or discussing) failed seductions.
For my excerpt, I’ll focus on a scene in which the hero’s seduction of the heroine just doesn’t quite work out. 
Here’s my failed seduction scene, from my upcoming (only 10 days until release!) dem

30 Days of Demons, Day 19: Why Leanna is Awesome!
Today, I’m jealous. Yes, I’ll just come right out and admit it–I’m jealous b/c I want the prize that my guest author is offering. Who is my author today? The lovely and talented Leanna Renee Hieber. And guess what she’s giving to one very lucky commenter? An autographed ARC of her upcoming Dorchester release, The Strangely Beautiful Tale of Miss Percy Parker. I cannot wait to read this particular book!!! When August 25th gets here, I’ll be at the front of the bookstore line, this book clut

30 Days of Demons, Day 18: Sandy Lender
Today’s guest is Sandy Lender, author of CHOICES MEANT FOR GODS. I have to say, I think that is one fabulous book title. And, yes, I’m a title gal. Titles draw me in, they make me want to pick up the book, flip it over and dive into that blurb!
Sandy, welcome to the demon fun!
(A quick note: Sandy is participating in a blog tour, and I’m happy to be one of the stops on her tour. During each week of her blog tour, she selects one commenter–from all the blogs she visits–and that person wins a

30 Days of Demons, Day 17: Making Deals
“The devil went down to Georgia, he was looking for a soul to steal.
He was in a bind ‘cos he was way behind: he was willin’ to make a deal.”
Oh…one of my favorite childhood songs. :-) These lyrics are from “The Devil Went Down to Georgia” (by the Charlie Daniels Band). Sometimes, I catch myself singing this song to my son as a lullaby. Yes, we have odd lullabies in my house.
But the songs draws me b/c I’ve always been intrigued by the idea that the devil–or just demons– can appear and make de

30 Days of Demons, Day 16: Michele Hauf
I’m actually in the middle of reading Michele Hauf’s latest release now (FAERIES GONE WILD), and I’ve got to say–it’s great. :-) If you’re looking for a hot paranormal author, then should definitely check out Michele’s stories. Welcome, Michele!

30 Days of Demons, Day 15 with D. Renee Bagby
Today’s guest author is D. Renee Bagby. I had the pleasure of cyber meeting Renee through the FF&P RWA Chapter (for those who write fantasy, futuristic, and paranormal romance), and I’ve got to say, she is one busy woman! Welcome, Renee!

Proverb: Raise no more [demons:] than you can lay [down:]. 
A good saying except, as much as I would like to lay down Melchior, I can’t. Number one he’s fictional… more’s the pity. Number two, even if he was real, I’d have to go through Serenity to get him… I do

30 Days of Demons, Day 14: My Demon Lover
How about a blast from the past?
For today’s post, my topic is “Favorite Demon Movie.” And my all-time favorite movie?
Please tell me I’m not the only one who remembers this movie.
And, hey, maybe it’s the nostalgia talking, but when I think about this movie, yes, I think 1st of the demon part, but 2nd, I think of the romance. Because this movie was a romance at its core. A funny show, an unusual hero, a heroine who–poor girl–had a few obstacles thrown in her path. And…you guessed it…a guara

30 Days of Demons, Day 13: Saturday Snippets
[image error]
Today’s Saturday Snippet focuses on Outtakes. Those scenes from novels that just, well, don’t quite make the final cut. :-) Since I’d celebrating my demon month, I chose to use an outtake from my succubus story, MIDNIGHT SINS.
When I write, sometimes I’ll try a few different beginnings as I attempt to get a feel for the characters and the story. Today’s outtake is an alternate beginning for MIDNIGHT SINS. This one didn’t make the cut, but it did help me to get a better feel for my heroine, Ca
