Weekend Book Club--Glacier by Laurann Dohner

This week I read GLACIER by Laurann Dohner. It's the 9th book in her VLG series. Readers of this series will love it.

If you love paranormal romance, then you need to try Laurann Dohner. Her New Species series is fantastic as well.

BLURB:

Since that fateful day she was snatched from her job and turned into a Vampire, Mandy's life has sucked-literally. Forced to become an assassin for the Vampire Council, she finds solace in taking out the scumbag rogues she's often assigned to kill. Things go south when she realizes her next mark is an old coworker from her human days…a seriously hot one, who she had deep feelings for. Worse, the council was wrong. He's not a villain, but a protector. One she refuses to kill, regardless of orders.

Glacier's astonished to come face to face with Mandy in a dark alley. Even more so to learn the sweet one-time human is now an assassin-assigned to kill him, no less. His orders are clear. Eliminate her. But what's a GarLycan to do when duty conflicts with his desire to protect the woman he once had feelings for? He's about to find out.

Weekend Book Club--Dark Strength by Cynthia Sax

DARK STRENGTH is the third book in the Refuge sci-fi romance series by Cynthia Sax.

These books are dark and violent and the romance is unconventional, but they are stories of overcoming odds, of surviving, and finding love.

The heroes are anti-heroes. They aren't human and live in a violent world. They make no apologies for who they are or what they have to do in order to survive. The heroines are survivors, women with brutal pasts who must overcome that trauma not only to survive, but to truly live.

I'll be watching for the release of Dark Fire.

These books aren't for everyone, but if you enjoy a dark sci-fi story then you must read this series. If any kind of sexual trauma or violence bothers you, you might want to check out some of the authors lighter sci-fi romances.

As the author herself says on Amazon: This is dark SciFi erotic romance. If you're sensitive to violence (of ANY kind), please read one of my lighter SciFi erotic romances.

Series order:

All of these stories can be read on their own.
Dark Thoughts (Kralj's story)
Dark Flight (Orol's story)Dark Strength (Balvan's story)Dark Fire (Dare's story--not released yet)
BLURB:

The Bigger They Are, The Harder They Fall.

Balvan, the Refuge’s Gatekeeper, is huge, green, and has a reputation for crushing skulls. He’s a modified humanoid, genetically designed to be the ultimate warrior. One of a kind and considered monstrous by many, he never expects to find his mate, the one female meant for him.

Elyce, snatched from her home half a solar cycle ago, has finally escaped her brutal captors. She arrives at the Refuge barely alive. Only a blood transfusion from the largest male she has ever seen will save her life. But it will also bind her to him forever. Staring up, up, up at him, she wonders why she wants to be free. His gentle touch revives yearnings she thought dead. His lips set her skin ablaze. His massive muscles make her feel safe.

That feeling could be an illusion. Elyce’s captors want their slave back and they won’t stop until they have her. To give his mate her freedom, Balvan might be forced to give up everything he has – his role as the Gatekeeper, Elyce’s love, and his life.

Dark Strength is a STANDALONE Alien SciFi Romance set in a gritty, dark world.

Weekend Book Club--The Emerald Lily by Juliette Cross

THE EMERALD LILY is the forth book in the Vampire Blood series by Juliette Cross. This book is the exciting conclusion of the story arc that began in The Black Lily.

These books are a creative retelling of familiar fairy tales set in a world with vampires. I love this series and hope this is not the end of stories set in this incredible world that the author has created.

I would love to see more stories featuring the members of the Bloodguard.

When Princess Vilhelmina Dragomir is awakened from her hellish sleep with a blood kiss from a handsome stranger, she learns that much has changed while she’s been away. The armies of the Black Lily and the vampire Crown have amassed and are on the brink of war.

No romantic entanglements, no family. Mikhail Romanov, Captain of the Bloodguard, took a vow when he joined the Bloodguard. But he never planned for the gut-punching attraction he would feel for the untouchable princess. He must keep his focus, though. In order to avenge his family, it’s essential he help Mina claim her crown and keep his damn hands off of her.

But Mina sets her heart on the elusive captain, and keeping his focus on the great battle ahead becomes harder and harder. While they're making plans, the evil King Dominik has been making some of his own. This time, he will show no mercy to the Princess...

Each book in the Vampire Blood series is a standalone story that can be enjoyed out of order.

Series Order:
Book #1 The Black Lily
Book #2 The Red Lily
Book #3 The White Lily
Book #4 The Emerald Lily
