We are taking nominations for group reads for June. Since the month of June is upon us, the group read will start around the middle of June and last through July 15th. The same will apply to each month this summer (15th-15th of the month).

Group Read Guidelines:

1. Books should have dangerous hero content and should be no more than NC-17 in content since this is a general audience group.

2. Books can be past group reads, but let's try to select some different books that we haven't read as a group.

3. Please add your book selection with a Goodreads link, using the 'add book/author' function so that it's easier to tell which book is being nominated.

Any questions?

The poll will go up on June 6th.

Nominations so Far:

Against the Dark by Carolyn Crane
Beyond The Veil by Pippa DaCosta
Gentlemen Prefer Succubi by Jill Myles
The Unleashing by Shelly Laurentson
Lights to My Siren by Lani Lynn Vale
Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning
Katie's Hellion by Lizzy Ford

Yeah, I've got one of those myself!

I like your nomination too Danielle, as that book has been on my Kindle for awhile.

I have a fantasy rec that should fit the NC17 dangerous hero Beyond The Veil (The Veil Series, #1) by Pippa DaCosta

Free on Amazon

Elizabeth (elizabeth_greece) Against the Dark is not on my TBR but since it's free on Amazon and I can get the audio for 3 euros I could join.


message 7: by Martel (new)

Martel | 29 comments Just found it on audible. I hope listening to a book counts too :). Contemporary isn't my favorite genre but the blurb and the sample both seem promising, so I will follow you on this one !


message 8: by Jennifer (new)

Jennifer I'm in for this book as well, as it is in my TBR pile and waiting patiently on my Nook. :)


message 9: by Chelsey (last edited Jun 01, 2015 01:01PM) (new)

Chelsey (chels91) | 1 comments I'll second Beyond The Veil (The Veil Series, #1) by Pippa DaCosta . I've been meaning to read that for ages now.
I'd also like to nominate Gentlemen Prefer Succubi (Succubus Diaries, #1) by Jill Myles (it's been a while since I read this but I'm pretty sure it fits the NC17 requirement).

Jennie (liebermann) I read against the dark unfortunately

I read it too. I gave it 3 stars but I was being generous. It was okay. Not horrible but nothing that really grabbed me.

Tammy | 395 comments I wouldn't mind reading Against the Dark (The Associates, #1) by Carolyn Crane

Suzanne Hakeos | 3 comments I have not read either of the nominations, but I liked the summary of the The Unleashing nominated by Shen.


message 17: by Keri (new)

Keri (mindcrusher1376) | 14 comments I'm new to the group. Is there a list of past reads so I don't suggest a repeat? Looking forward to this btw ;)


message 18: by [deleted user] (new)

I think it's been awhile since this group has done group reads, but here is where you can find that information.

Keri (mindcrusher1376) | 14 comments My favorite Alpha bad boy is Barrons so I'd recommend Karen Marie Moning's Fever series, starting with Darkfever.
DarkfeverThe Fever Series 6-Book Bundle: Darkfever, Bloodfever, Faefever, Dreamfever, Shadowfever, Iced

Cindi (ourtrumpcard) | 381 comments I just checked The Unleashing out of the library...I'm ready!


message 21: by Suzanne (new)

Suzanne Hakeos | 3 comments They are definitely great books Keri. I have read them all and cannot wait for the new one in January!

Me too. I love the quality of writing but I wish she could write faster! Curran in the Kate Daniels series is probably my second favorite alpha. Can't wait for the next book to come out. Rahr!


message 23: by Suzanne (new)

Suzanne Hakeos | 3 comments Keri, I have not read Daniels books. Thank you for a good idea for my next series.


message 24: by Storm (new)

Storm Chase Against the Dark suits me. Is it complete and self standing, though? Hate cliffhangers.


message 25: by PepperP0t (new)

PepperP0t It's not a cliff hanger

Oops. It's only the 12th. If you don't mind, I'm going to go ahead and close the poll, since The Unleashing has the most votes.


message 33: by ✿ Natalie ✿ (new)

✿ Natalie ✿ | 428 comments Ha, just didn't quite get there in time to vote lol.
There was such a great choice of books for this Summer read! The Unleashing is one I've had on my TBR since before it's release - plus it has a very nice and interesting cover ;-)
