Oh lord *snaps fan and does her best Scarlett O’hara accent * ‘I declar-er-ah I will be going hung-ah-ry again-nuh this week’.

Might I suggest a garage sale, or putting your crap up on ebay, ’cause its going to be an expensive week for book buying. I’ve already transferred ‘funds’ to my offshore bank account in Caymen Islands to ensure Mr. Smokin’ knows not what I WILL be spending this week.

Lover Mine by J.R. Ward

Releases April 27th

This book needs no explanation, it’s the one we’ve all been waiting for…John Matthew and Xhex!!!!!!!! <–Notice my excitement with the multiple exclamation points.  Hopefully we will get to read some heavy duty smoochie scenes with Blay and Qhuinn because that would be ‘boss!’

I will be doing a Giveaway Wednesday April 27th

In the darkest corners of the night in Caldwell, New York, a conflict like no other rages. Long divided as a terrifying battleground for the vampires and their enemies, the city is home to a band of brothers born to defend their race: the warrior vampires of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.

John Matthew has come a long way since he was found living among humans, his vampire nature unknown to himself and to those around him. After he was taken in by the Brotherhood, no one could guess what his true history was- or his true identity. Indeed, the fallen Brother Darius has returned, but with a different face and a very different destiny. As a vicious personal vendetta takes John into the heart of the war, he will need to call up on both who he is now and who he once was in order to face off against evil incarnate.

Xhex, a symphath assassin, has long steeled herself against the attraction between her and John Matthew. Having already lost one lover to madness, she will not allow the male of worth to fall prey to the darkness of her twisted life. When fate intervenes, however, the two discover that love, like destiny, is inevitable between soul mates.

The Darkly Luminous Fight for Persephone Parker by Leanna Renee Hieber (#2)

Releases April 27th

Psst this is where Alexi and Percy are married *swoons*

Giveaway on Tuesday the April 27th with Review.

With radiant, snow white skin and hair, Percy Parker was a beacon for Fate. True love had found her, in the tempestuous form of Professor Alexi Rychman. But her mythic destiny was not complete. Accompanying the ghosts with which she alone could converse, new and terrifying omens loomed. A war was coming, a desperate ploy of a spectral host. Victorian London would be overrun. Yet, Percy kept faith. Within the mighty bastion of Athens Academy, alongside The Guard whose magic shielded mortals from the agents of the Underworld, she counted herself among friends. Wreathed in hallowed fire, they would stand together, no matter what dreams or nightmares—may come.

Stealing Katheryn by Jacquelyn Frank

Releases April 27th

At times I feel this author is a hit or miss with me, I loved her 1st Nightwalker Book Jacob and Rapture of the Shadowdweller series – I’m crossing my fingers for Stealing Katheryn.

Sandman. Angus. Morpheus. He is known by many names, except his true one, Adrian. When he departs his world, it is to enter the sacred space of sleep, and he is not there to sow sweet dreams. Adrian’s mission is to reap the dark energy of nightmares, work that has twisted his soul as well as his once-handsome face. Now, he lives only to await the day darkness finally overcomes him. . .and to collect exquisite reminders of what he’s lost. . .

But there is one treasure that stands apart. Having risked everything to obtain her, Adrian soon realizes his mistake. For Kathryn has a wholly unexpected power over him, not only for what she represents, but for what for she is: a soul with desires as strong as his own, tempered by compassion that could save Adrian from his self-made hell–or condemn them both. . .

Wild Fire by Christine Feehan (Book 3 in Lepord Series)

Releases April 27th

Feehan really brought it with her previous lepord book Burning Wild, I’m looking forward to getting my hands on some Alpha shifters.

Leopard shifter Connor Vega carries the scent of a wild animal in its prime, and bears the soul-crushing sins of past betrayals. Isabeau Chandler’s never forgiven him-or forgotten him. The mating urge is still with her, and hotter than ever. Dangerously hot…

Duncan’s World by T.A. Chase (M/M

Available Now on Kindle

T.A. Chase is fast becoming one of my favorite authors for m/m fiction. I read and adored Angel’s Evolution, No Going Home, and Here be Dragons – I’m slowly making my way through almost all of his published works.

The only rebellion Kyle-s allowed himself is helping out with the bulls after the event. It-s on one such night that Kyle meets Duncan Hornsby.

Duncan’s the reigning world Champion, and has everything he could want. Yet the shy young man whose father is Duncan-s biggest rival catches his eye. Kyle makes Duncan feel protective and passionate. Even though he-s fourteen years older than Kyle, Duncan-s ready to risk rejection to see if Kyle-s lips taste as sweet as they look.

Could a relationship grow between them amidst the macho atmosphere of bull riding and the danger presented by Kyle-s father? Or will Kyle and Duncan prove that age doesn-t count in matters of the heart?

Simple Men by Eric Arvin (M/M)

Available Now In Ebook Format at Dreamspinner & Kindle

I saw this one while online cruising Amazon’s M/M New Releases (small pickin’s btw) and this one shouted to me “looksie KC”

Chip Arnold is a well-liked football coach at a small liberal arts college, but his personal life is in a bit of a rut. He goes out drinking with his colleagues, gets along well with his players, and dates all the prettiest women in town-he has the life most straight men dream of. But lately none of the women he dates seem to be igniting any passion in him. Then he meets the new school chaplain, Foster Lewis.

Romantic attraction to another man is new and terrifying, and Chip just can’t put his finger on why he’s drawn to Foster, but it’s stronger than anything he’s felt for anyone in his life. Never one to back down from a challenge, Chip decides to go for it. But love is never simple, and sometimes it’s a downright mess

Chasing Smoke by K.A. Mitchell

Available Now

Publisher Samhain & available on Kindle

Okay again technically this was released in the first week of April *waves hand* but you might have missed it and good ‘ole KC has got your back.

An old mystery brought them together. Solving it could tear them apart.
In the best of times, Daniel Gardner hates visiting his family. With his boyfriend pressuring him for a mortgage-serious commitment, Christmas in Easton, PA sounds, for once, like a welcome escape. His old house holds more than memories of a miserable adolescence, though. It has Trey Eriksson.
At seventeen, Trey was taken in by the wealthy Gardner family after his father was jailed for his mother’s murder. Until he left for the Army, he fought a double-edged battle—for proof of his father’s innocence and against his attraction to Daniel.
Fifteen years later, things haven’t changed. Trey is still looking for the real killer. And Daniel has never forgotten how Trey used to sneak into his room at night.
Now new clues to the murder are resurfacing—and so is Trey and Daniel’s sexual chemistry. Except this time, Trey has come to terms with his orientation.
But their connection may not be enough to overcome the mistakes of the past. Not while a murderer still walks free…

Warning: Anyone who would rather not read about hooking back up with someone who broke your heart, minor suspense, hot guys who can handle guns and each other, and lots of steamy gay sex probably isn’t reading this warning anyway, but if you are, back away slowly and keep your hands where I can see them.

How many of you are practically peeing your big girl panties with excitement that Lover Mine is almost HERE?
