Purchase Info: Amazon - B&N 

One woman. Seven men. All bound by one man’s undying devotion.

Fundraiser Linden Hill has a knack for reading people. She always knows which conversations will put a prospect at ease, which drink will loosen a patron’s lips—or his wallet, and how cleavage will make a donor sweeten the deal. She’s even foreseen her dateless weekends four hundred and sixty-four times in a row.

But ten years after watching life drain from her former mentor’s and first love’s eyes, her skills for divining the predictable are lost. When Cyril returns, he’s still gorgeous, but this time he’s beyond human, far less dead, and pissed. His lack of memory drives him to desperate acts, and his turbulent re-acquaintance with Linden pulls her into his war with a creature hell-bent on his destruction. His group of six supernatural men share a tantalizing secret, but despite the hunger, it’s love that leads her to sacrifice everything to save him…

Holy Sexy Whirlwind!!

From the beginning I was sucked in and didn't come up once for air! 

Honestly, there are some many amazing things about this book I can't even find a good place to start. Coming into this book I wasn't expecting combustible romance, characters to swoon over AND a fantastic plot! Considering Linden's life is focused on her job, romance is out of the picture. I mean every man she's ever been close to dies....

Enter Cyril. Tall dark hair, handsome, dangerous. Seriously how could you not be attracted to that? But it's the history between these 2 that grabbed my attention. How would you react if a man you watched die came strutting back into your life?? FREAK-OUT, that's how I'd react!
Linden on the other hand knows that there's some logical explaination behind it, and there is. Immortal. Grimm Reaper. Vampire?? 

You get the idea, and right now I'm trying super hard not to make this a spoiler review....help me.....Ms. Mason, why must you be torture us? WHY??

Basically go out now and buy this book!
End.Of.Story.

5/5

Don't you just want to grab this set through the screen?!?!

Here's a little taste of what to expect:

Lash by L.G. Castillo


“Naomi, about what happened back there.” Lash took a step back and brushed a hand through his hair.
“I, uh, I crossed a line that I shouldn’t have.”
“Oh.” She turned away.
She should have known better. She was just a mission for him to accomplish.
“I got carried away in the heat of the moment.”
“Yeah, yeah. I get it.” She waved him off.
“We’re still friends, right?”
“Yeah…friends.” She could barely say the word.
There was no expectation that they were or would ever be a couple in the romantic sense. She admitted that she liked him and being friends was a good thing. But why was it so painful? Bear trotted to her, wagging her tail, and Naomi picked her up. Bear gazed at her with sad eyes, sensing her heartache and licked her hand.
The bed sank and Naomi felt him behind her. She couldn’t let him see her like this, like some love-struck teenage girl who just found out the quarterback of the football team only liked her as a friend. She had to be strong.
“Are you crying?” She bowed her head glad the shadows hid her face.
“No.” Good. Her voice sounded strong instead of the driveling mess she felt like.
“Turn around.”
“No.” “Let me see your face, Naomi.” He moved closer to her.
“Go away.” Bear barked, warning him to keep his distance. He reached around her, brushing her arm as he patted Bear’s head.
“Please.” His warm breath blew on her neck.
The tenderness in his voice tore at her and her eyes grew wet. She took a couple of breaths, calming herself before she spoke.
“I get it. I’m a job for you, and you felt sorry for me.”
She stroked Bear’s fur. “I’ll be fine.”
She took another deep breath, placed Bear on the floor, and took a pillow off the bed. She couldn’t stay in the same room with him. It was too much. She liked him better when he was being a smartass—that she could handle. She needed to get back to the bathroom to be alone. Maybe she could sleep in there. The bathtub didn’t look too bad in spite of the dark ring around it and the questionable green stuff on the walls. Lash grasped her hand and she bit down on her lip, fighting back the strong feeling that bubbled up inside her. She felt herself weaken as she sank back down on the bed, keeping her head down. Don’t make me look at you. I’ll break if I do. Gently, he placed a hand under her chin and lifted her face to his. His eyes swam with tenderness. She couldn’t hold back anymore and she closed her eyes.
“My beautiful Naomi. Please don’t cry.” Soft lips pressed against her forehead and lingered, her breath caught at the heat of his touch. The roughness of his chin grazed her skin as he moved to her eyelid and kissed it and then to the other.
Her chest rose and fell as his lips slid down to her cheek, her nose, and then the other side of her face, chasing away the tears. His nose glided along her cheek and paused over her mouth, hovering, his frantic breath lingering with hers. She was afraid to open her eyes. Afraid of what she’d see when she looked at him. Then his voice, so soft, as if he was speaking from inside her mind, whispered, “Naomi.”
She opened her eyes and her breath hitched at the raw emotion on his face. The wall he kept around his soul, his true self, disappeared. This was the real Lash—vulnerable, sweet and passionate. She couldn’t deny the truth that was sitting in front of her, tugging at her, consuming her.
She loved him. “Fight me.”
His voice rasped as a hand swept over her hair. “I shouldn’t be doing this. I don’t want to hurt you.”
His words warred with the longing on his face. He wanted her as much as she wanted him. Then she realized what he was asking of her. He was an angel. He was on his way home. After tonight, she would never see him again. The thought crushed her. In the back of her mind, she knew there would be an end. He couldn’t be with her forever. The end was soon, and this may be their last time together. Tonight, she’d follow her heart, even if it meant her heart, her soul, would be left bleeding in the end. If all they had was one night, one moment—she’d take it.
“You won’t.” She leaned in, her mouth brushing lightly over his lips.
He quivered. “I can’t stop myself anymore.”

Kissed by a Dark Prince

Ready??

Set.....

TA-DA!!!

\

GORGEOUS, RIGHT?!?!

Well besides being easy on the eye, here's what you can expect between the covers:

Kissed by a Dark Prince (Eternal Mates Romance Series Book 1)
Olivia thinks it’s her lucky night when a dangerously handsome unconscious fae ends up on her inspection table. He’s her chance to redeem herself with her employer, the demon-hunting organisation, Archangel. But when the tall, dark and deadly immortal warrior awakes, she gets much more than she bargained for…

Attacked by his enemy in the elf kingdom, the last thing Prince Loren expects when he comes around is a beautiful angel watching over him and medical technology of the mortal realm. Hazy from his injuries, all he can focus on is the pulse ticking in her throat and the sweet allure of her blood.

One single bite reveals she is his eternal mate, triggering a bond between them that will leave him weakened until it is completed… or broken, and pulling Olivia into the crossfire of his ancient feud.

To protect his people and his mate from the machinations of a madman, Loren must risk everything by working with Olivia at Archangel to find a way to break the bond blossoming between them.

But will Loren be strong enough to place duty before desire and give up the one thing he has waited millennia for and craves above all others—his eternal mate? And will Olivia be able to resist the incredible heat that burns between them and the temptation of her dark prince’s kiss?
