Great review for Lure of the Jaguar from Fresh Fiction
LURE OF THE JAGUAR has received an amazing review from FRESH FICTION.
"LURE OF THE JAGUAR is truly hypnotic!...I hate to see the end of the Hades Carnival series, and was thrilled when author N.J. Walters took pity on her readers and gave us all seven of the warriors' stories....LURE OF THE JAGUAR is the perfect end to a really great series." ~Annetta Sweetko

Weekend Book Club--Burned by Darkness by Alexandra Ivy
BURNED BY DARKNESS is the first book in Alexandra Ivy's new Dragon's of Eternity series. There is plenty of action and a sexy, stubborn dragon who has set his mind on claiming the the one woman who got away. Danger lurks from several different sources. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on your point of view, they have help in the form of everyone's favorite gargoyle, Levet. If your familiar with Ivy's Guardian's of Eternity series, then you know and love Levet.
This is a fantastic start for the Dragon's of Eternity. I can't wait for the next book in this exciting new series.
BLURB:
The Dragons of Eternity were once creatures of mist and legend. Now they’ve returned to the world, prepared to claim what’s rightfully theirs…
Tayla is desperate for a place to call home. After years on the run, the young imp impulsively buys a teahouse and is determined to build a new life. Unfortunately, she’s barely opened the doors when she’s tracked down by the dragon who purchased her from troll slave-traders. He demands she pay off her debts…in his harem.
Baine has devoted a quarter of a century to tracking down his beautiful concubine. And now that he has her in his grasp, he’s not about to let her go. But it’s soon apparent that he isn’t the only demon hunting her. He must uncover her secrets or risk losing her forever.

Lure of the Jaguar Available Today!
Lure of the Jaguar is finally here. This is the final story in the Hades' Carnival series. I've loved writing all these books and am sorry to see the series end, but it's time. Hope you all enjoy Stavros's book.
Lure of the Jaguar
Hades has one last trick up his sleeve...and this cat is running out of lives.
Hades’ Carnival, Book 7
The curse that imprisoned the Lady of the Beasts’ warriors is broken. Their mates are safe from Hades, but not their human friends. As the only unmated warrior, Stavros retreats to the Louisiana bayou. Better to be alone than put anyone else in danger.
Then he senses a presence in his woods. It’s a woman stalking wildlife with her camera, a woman who has unwittingly put herself on Hades’ radar—for she is Stavros’ mate.
Wildlife photographer Toni Richards doesn’t need any man to be her hero. But when three suspicious men try to kidnap her, she’s shocked when the rare jaguar she’s been tracking leaps to her rescue—then morphs into a man. An incredibly sexy man with a jaguar tattoo snarling across his back.
Despite his better judgment, Stavros can’t keep his distance, even though he knows that when the time comes, much will have to be sacrificed to foil Hades’ plans. Stavros prays Toni will forgive him for what he must do to protect her soul.
Warning: A shapeshifting warrior, an intrepid photographer, and a vengeful god generate enough heat in the bayou to send the entire state up in flames.

Wolf in her Bed now available in Paperback
WOLF IN HER BED is now available in PRINT from Samhain Publishing! This is the second book in the Salvation Pack series.
BLURB:
Is he Prince Charming or the Big Bad Wolf?
Anny Conrad is a single thirty-year-old librarian—a cliché complete with two cats. Dragged out to a local bar, she’s rethinking her life plan over a few drinks when a man walks up and asks her to dance. And what a man. Tall, rugged and more than a little untamed. Before she knows it, she’s in his arms and throwing caution to the wind.
With a pack war in full, deadly swing, the last thing Armand LaForge needs right now is a woman in his life, much less a human. But one thing is certain, he’s met his mate, the one woman in the world for him.
The kindest thing to do is give her all the hot sex she wants and then leave her alone. But when the morning comes, fate isn’t done screwing with them. Anny is confronted with the fact that the myths in her library books are real…and now she’s one of them.
