Release day - UNTOUCHABLE DARKNESS

Today is the release day of Untouchable Darkness by Rachel Van Dyken! This is the 2nd book in the Dark Ones saga. This can be read as a standalone. This series is fantastic! Make sure to get your copy of Untouchable Darkness.

To love a Dark One is to invite death...

It is wrong to love her.
It is worse to want her.
It is sin to consume her.
I desire all three.

I've been given thirty days to prove my love to another immortal--as a human. Cursed to use nothing but the side of myself I've always despised to win her affection. I am Cassius, the King of the immortals, A Dark One.
And today I tasted fear for the first time.
How can I win her when my human emotions over take every ounce of logic I possess?
A darkness is brewing.
One I cannot stop as a human.
One that Stephanie, my loves visions, have shown, will be my end.
Thirty days ago I was King of the immortals.
Today I know fear.
Today I know how I will die.
By her hand.

The woman I love.

Blog post - THE FIX UP

Check out The Fix Up by Tawna Fenske.

Uncovering this sexy geek’s charm is easy. Keeping her hands off of him is impossible. While he may look like the love child of a movie starlet and an NFL linebacker, Ben Langley has the people skills of a half-drowned porcupine. Why socialize when there are chemistry labs and bad sci-fi flicks? If he has any hope of taking the helm as CEO of the family business, Ben needs an image makeover. Pronto. Enter Holly Colvin, owner of First Impressions public relations and branding firm, and the woman who just saved Ben from the clutches of an over-attentive sales clerk. Holly’s rebranded hundreds of companies in her career, but she’s never rebranded a person. The guy clearly needs help, though, and she’s just the woman for the job. With the clock ticking for them both, Holly and Ben face off over wardrobe malfunctions and business jargon that sounds a lot sexier than it should. But can Holly make Ben into the man he thinks he should be without losing the man she’s starting to love?

Excerpt

“Yes,” Holly said, surprised by the breathlessness in her own voice. “I want you, you want me, and I’m tired of fighting it. Take the next exit, please.”

“Where are we going?” His hand moved a fraction of an inch up her thigh, and Holly nearly moaned with pleasure.

“You don’t have a bed, and my place is too far away. There’s a hotel right up there and it seems like the surest way to have you inside me within five minutes.”

“Yes, ma’am.” Ben grinned and slid his hand further up her thigh. “And this is why you’re well-qualified to coach me on assertiveness. You’re a woman who knows what she wants.”

“I think you’ve mastered a few things yourself, Mr. CEO.” She watched his hand slide further up her thigh as he pushed her skirt up higher.

“Yes, but a little hands-on experience is always valuable if I’m really going to get behind the issue for some strategic interplay.”

She grinned, pretty sure this was the first time anyone had attempted to use business jargon as a seduction tool. “I think I can slot you in.”

“Excellent. I’d like to touch base on the liquidity of your assets as soon as possible.”

He shoved her skirt higher and Holly let her legs fall apart. Ben accepted the invitation, his fingers grazing the satin center of her panties, and Holly heard herself gasp.

“God yes!” she gasped, pressing against his fingertips. “Right there.”

Excerpt

“Uh, Holly?” The sound of Ben’s voice from the dressing room stall jarred her from her incessant planning. “Yes?” “I’m having a bit of a problem here.” “What sort of problem?” She stood up, ready to help. “What’s wrong?” “There’s a thread or something caught in the zipper. I can’t get the pants off.” She hesitated, resting a hand on the wall of the dressing room. “Do you want me to help?” “You know, this really isn’t how I envisioned you offering to remove my pants.” She felt the heat creeping into her cheeks again, torn between the embarrassment of the situation and the thrill of knowing he’d basically just admitted he’d thought about her taking off his pants. It was a joke. Don’t get too excited. “Should I go find Marcus?” “Who’s Marcus?” “The clerk. That’s what his nametag said, anyway.” “I should pay more attention to stuff like that.” “There’s your first lesson in public relations—always look for nametags.” She lowered her voice a little and glanced toward the door. “And based on the attention Marcus was paying to you, I get the sense he wouldn’t mind taking off your pants. What is it with you and sales clerks?” Ben muttered something unintelligible that was probably some sort of engineering curse. “I’m about five seconds from whipping out my pocket knife and cutting the damn things off my body.” “Don’t do that! They’re the only pair in your size and they don’t even need to be tailored.” “I’ve been at this for ten minutes already.” “Are you sure you’re sliding it the right way?” “I have a doctorate in engineering,” he muttered. “I’m pretty sure I understand how a zipper works.” She hesitated at the edge of the dressing room, biting her lip. “Do you want me to try?”
