Hi all! I'd love to see us go for these back to back, and start them on November 1st! There has been tons of buzz about Seduction Game over in Pamela's Facebook group, and I'm starting to want to read it!
Mod
Ok. Though I don't have my audiobooks yet
We can push it off until you get the Audiobooks too, I'm just eager! I do know that Audio for Seduction Game had production delays so it isn't out yet. Hopefully it will be out this month!
Hi Trea and Ezi...Thanks for linking me here. Don't know how i missed it i went over all the October threads several times. *facepalm*
I'm ready any time you are.

We're waiting for Ezi to get Audiobooks, I think.

You guys can start without me. When the audio comes out on audible, I'll just jump in.
Trea wrote: "We're waiting f..."No rush.
I'm re-reading the whole series as we speak. Will fall in with you when everybody is ready to start.

Hopefully the delays I heard about in the Facebook group aren't that bad and they can get it to you this month.
Ezi, Pamela Clare just sent out a blog update today. In it she states "The audiobook should be out soon. There were unavoidable production delays, but things are on track now. I expect it will be available before the end of the month. The audiobook cover is quite sexy. I’ll let you know as soon as it’s out.In other news, Kaleo is busy recording Soul Deep right now for audiobook. It is slated for release on Dec. 29."
Thought you would want to know, since you're waiting for Audiobooks. With that information, do we want to push this BR to December?

Yes. Can we wait until Dec?
Those who need it for challenges can go ahead and read it. I don't mind.
Thanks Trea for the update
I'm fine anytime. My next must read is Winter coming out on the 10th.

You're welcome. Just got in, but have to go back out soon. I have it for one challenge, but I think I can swap it out, so no worries. Let's just have Denise keep this thread open for December when those sign ups go live.
Ezi, Ezi! Pamela just posted in the I-Team FB group, said she got a note from Kaleo, the narrator of the I-Team audiobooks. Guess what's available now?!http://www.audible.com/pd/Romance/Sed...

Tantor also emailed me an hour ago that it mailed me the mp3. I should get it Wed or Thursday. but it didn't include Soul Deep.
I am still pleased. I have heard good things unlike Darkest before Dawn by Maya Banks (KGI) which has been getting dismal reviews.
thanks Trea

You're welcome! Soul Deep is still being recorded, and according to what Pamela sent out last week, it will come out on Dec 29.
Do we want to keep this in December now, or move it back to November?
Mod
I am good with either
Ezinwanyi~Boo boo kitty wrote: "I am good with either"LOL! We need to flip a coin!
Mod
LOL! We need to flip a coin!"
it depends if we want to read Soul Deep immediately or do one book a month

I'm not the one who should decide that. Soul Deep would be a re-read for me, as I read it back in July when it first came out. (I got a bit eager to support Pamela! *ducks in case of flying wet noodles or tomatoes*) So, I'm going to make it your call.
Mod

so is there a big tie in or can they be read separately?
Ezinwanyi~Boo boo kitty wrote: "so is there a big tie in or can they be read separately?"It's more like an indirect followup to Striking Distance rather than a tie in to Seduction Game. Soul Deep follows the FBI agent that was injured protecting Laura, the heroine of Striking Distance, during some of her recovery. The characters from Skin Deep are revisited as well. However, I don't know if the events of Soul Deep will impact Seduction Game or not.

Hmmm, I barely remember Striking Distance. Let me think and I will be back on it
Ezinwanyi~Boo boo kitty wrote: "Hmmm, I barely remember Striking Distance. Let me think and I will be back on it"Okies.
Mod
Ezinwanyi~Boo boo kitty wrote: "I vote for Next week on Seduction Game. My audio is supposed to come in on Friday"Sounds like a plan! I'll mark it down for right after Naked in Death.
Mod
I'm with you.So we are all starting next Monday coming?
Amber wrote: "I'm with you.So we are all starting next Monday coming?"
I'm not. Next Monday I have Naked in Death to read. I'll read Seduction Game when I finish that, probably Tuesday or Wednesday.
Mod
So we are all starting next Monday coming?"
we can just leave comments in spoilers. Trea reads fast and will probably finish before me anyway, LOL!
*snorts* We'll see. It's been a while since I read Naked, so it may take me a bit.
Mod
Action right at the beginning

you really do keep up with her, LOL!
So in the first 5 mins, we have had a quick recap of the "couples" so far.
Who is your favorite? Mine is Sophie and Marc in
and then Tessa and Julian in
Mod
not loving the color schemes of late :(
Do NOT like the title dead by midnight.
Ezinwanyi~Boo boo kitty wrote: "Who is your favorite? Mine is Sophie and Marc in by Pamela Clare and then Tessa and Julian in Hard Evidence (I-Team, #2) by Pamela Clare"Nate and Megan from
are my favorite couple. I really don't have a second favorite couple.

is better than Seduction Game, imho.
Penni wrote: "Do NOT like the title dead by midnight."I think part of the reason for that is because she brings in Kaylea Cross' Hostage Rescue Team in this book.
Mod
why not?
Ezinwanyi~Boo boo kitty wrote: "Penni wrote: "Do NOT like the title dead by midnight."why not?"
Don't want anyone Dead by Midnight - unless I guess it's the bad guys.
Mod
I love Nick, but the character Holy---I am vacillating between Holly the Ho and Holly the Dingbat.
But in reality, I know both are roles since she is trained agent. I just hate her cover loose Bimbo persona
I'm 17% in right now. I really don't like Nick at all! Somebody spoiled it for me what's going on with Holly, but I'd be doing a "WTF?" right now about it if it hadn't been spoiled.
Mod
I'm at 73% in. I've never liked Holly as a character, and this book isn't changing my mind. Nick is a complete a-hole, and I don't like some of the sex scenes with Holly, because it feels like he's using sex as a weapon. About the only good thing is the suspense plot!

Mod
1) I never bought into Holly and Nick's relationship. It made me think of Speed and Sandra Bullock's quote relationships that start under intense circumstances, they never last. So I felt like this was one of those On the Run, High Adrenaline, Bonnie and Clyde relationships.
2) I know this is silly but Romantic Suspense novels are starting to erode my confidence in government officials---I will leave it at that.
3) holly's dad--is it possible that he is a step dad and not blood relationship? (view spoiler)
Mod
Pamela Clare did Holly a disservice after all these books. I think the author should have led Holly with a mission before introducing that she slept with some of her marks. We all know undercover agents have to do things, but leading off with her as a sex worker for the CIA took away from her expertise as an agent, her expertise in decoding messages etc.
She was just reduced to a sex object in this book and it ruined it for me.
Nick was the most underdeveloped male lead we have had in this series in a long time as well.
