Children of the Moon Novel #5
Berkley Sensation - July 2013

Chrechte wolf shifter Caelis turned his back on his human lover Shona so that he could remain loyal to his pack. Six years later, he thinks she’s dead. He’s wrong...

After being rejected by Caelis, Shona was forced to marry an English baron. Now she’s on the run from the deceased baron’s heir. Determined to protect her children, she heads north to Balmoral Island, to the only family she has left. And runs into the one man she never wants to see again—and the only one who might be able to save her.

As powerful and charismatic as ever, Caelis has been charged with saving his pack from the corrupt laird
ruling them. This time, however, he refuses to abandon his sacred mate. He lost Shona once and swears he will never be separated from her again. Passion and love urge Shona to join him. But she has to wonder if she truly comes before the pack, or if nothing has changed at all...

Happy Halloween ... Romance Style!

It's Halloween and for many, that means dressing up ghoulishly and visiting the local haunted maze, or taking the children trick-or-treating.  We love to dress up around the Monroe house and delight in passing out candy to little (and big) kids coming to our door.

But it wouldn't be a holiday fro me without a little romance.  And the truth is: some of us are going to be looking for a quiet night in, or a cozy read between doorbell chimes.

So, let's start with a couple perfect reads for Halloween.   Eyes of the Wolf by Desiree Holt is a sexy, short story you can pick up from Amazon for .99.  Now, that's a deal and it happens to be by an author I enjoy.  What could be better?

If you prefer your romance of the historical variety, then you absolutely don't want to miss Tori Phillips' reissued  Halloween Knight  available on Harlequin.com for under $5.

A simple rescue becomes a full-blown invasion, with mischief and mayhem and a devious plan to rid the castle of all its vermin at a haunted banquet one Halloween night!

According to the Irish American Mom blog, Halloween is all about romance.  Which you all know makes me very happy indeed.  A holiday is so much more of a holiday when it includes a little (or a lot) of romance!

Irish Halloween Superstitions Foretelling Romance, Love And Marriage
Move over Valentine’s Day – Halloween is nearly here, and in olden days in Ireland, this was the time of year for predicting romances, just waiting to flourish...

Hugs and happy reading!

Fabulous Fall Reads - October

There are so many good books out there, my TBR stacks are tottering.  In the interest of making sure yours are too, here's a list of the books I've been recommending in my Fabulous Fall Reads series on FB & Twitter:

The Boy with the Painful Tattoo
by Josh LanyonBuy Print or eBook at B&N
Josh writes amazing mystery romance and is one of the few authors I buy as soon as the book is available, no matter what kind of deadlines or family commitments I've got going on.

The Dating Dilemma
by Laurie LeClairDebut book in her new romantic comedy series.Buy eBook at B&N
I met Laurie for the first time at RWA National in San Antonio this year.  She's an absolute sweetheart who puts her readers first.  (She and her husband spent a lot of time getting books to give away to readers that they could have been doing other stuff.  I was impressed!) And she writes amazing comedy romance!


The True King of Dahaar
by Tara Pammi
Harlequin Presents
November 2014

Tara is a newer author for Harlequin Presents with her own unique point of view and author voice.  I'm very excited she's joined our series and hope you'll give her books a try.

A bonus recommendation from another new Harlequin Presents / M&B Modern / Mills & Boon Sexy author with her debut book.  Aren't both these covers absolutely delicious?!!

A Deal Before the Altar by Rachael ThomasHarlequin PresentsOctober 2014
Any author's debut book is exciting, but I have a soft spot for Presents authors since Harlequin/Mills&Boon was the first publisher to buy my own books.  I've been able to write some of my most memorable stories for Presents as well.


Charade (Impetuous & Outrageous)
2-in-1 Reissue (Print & eBook)
by Lori Foster

Lori Foster has been on my auto-buy list for 15 years. Her books touch our hearts while entertaining us at the same time.  Impetuous and Outrageous are two two of her stories I've re-read many, many times.

If you didn't get your copy the first time around, this is one 2-in-1 you don't want to pass up!

My final Fabulous Fall Reads for October are a couple of those fantastic deals I can't help sharing, especially since my friend and award winning author Rachel Grant is part of this mult-author anthology/bundle.

Twelve Shades of Midnight by Liliana Hart, Dakota Cassidy, Rachel Grant, et. al.

The stroke of midnight ushers in many things. From hijinks and mischief to danger and evil, romance is the magic that binds these paranormal novellas together. Join 12 bestselling and award winning authors as they explore the different shades of midnight in exclusive, never-before-released stories.

Autumn's Kiss by 10 authors including Kristy Tate, Debby Lee, et. al.

Ten sweet stories of love. Ten great authors. Ten ways to celebrate Autumn.
Falling in love is timeless. From a sexy medieval stonemason to a small town shopkeeper - Regency England to Napa Vineyards, this selection of Historical, Contemporary, Paranormal and Time-Travel short romance stories is sure to capture your heart.

Enjoy and happy reading!
Lucy
