Reader Halloween Costumes Rock! - Part 3

HAPPY HALLOWEEN! What better way to celebrate than with more of my readers in great Halloween costumes?

To the left is Sarah Fisher doing her best Steampunk impression. Gotta love the goggles :-) 

Here she is to the right with her daughter dressed as cartoon characters. Pretty hard to believe it's the same person, don't you think? She's a master of disguise!


To the left is Sheila with her friend's daughter at a fall festival. I don't know about you, but Sheila is the kind of witch I wouldn't mind having as a friend!
Shelly is my kind of mom! Every year she goes out with her son as a Shadow Hunter. Usually he dresses as a Hunter (as in deer hunter) LOL, but this year (pictured right) he dressed as a football player. Not just any football player, but Aaron Murry, former quarterback for the Georgia Bulldogs. I wonder if that means he'll be on the team one day. He certainly looks the part!

Thank you everyone for sharing! I just loved getting these pictures because dressing in costume is my most favorite part of Halloween. Can't wait to see what the rest of today brings! Happy Halloween everyone!

Always, Lexi

Reader Halloween Costumes Rock! - Part 2

Whoohoo! More awesome costume pictures from my readers!

Check out Jennifer dressed up in a Venetian mask she won from me. I don't know about you, but I think the purple hair is so her :-) 







And how about this gruesome pair.  
Jade and her husband look pretty awesome, don't you think?
 


Now you may think that Marsha's granddaughter was having the time of her life at FrightFest, and you'd be right! She didn't mind hanging out with these two ghouls.



In fact, she was braver than Marsha when this Gargoyle showed up. While grandma took fright, this cutie posed for a picture :-)

Aren't these fabulous? And there's more to come!

Always, Lexi

BLURB:
Jake Preston is on borrowed time. If he doesn’t stumble upon a miracle and soon, he’ll end up dead. And even if he does, he still might end up dead with a clever killer hounding his heels. He believes that the one miracle and antidote to save him is in Margot Davenport’s house, across the country and miles away from Boston. Somewhere locked in her home is the key to reversing an experiment that is killing him with each breath he takes. Margot doesn’t particularly care if she ends up dead. She’s lost everything she’s ever cared for. A divorce and the loss of her job as a corporate lawyer has left her with little faith in herself or in anyone else. Most importantly, she’s lost the one person on this earth she’s looked up to and cherished–her brother, Johnny. His death in a car accident has devastated her, and she can’t find the willpower to pull herself from the chasm she’s fallen into. Her only solace is at the bottom of a wineglass. Having moved back to the small town in northern Arizona where she was raised, she’s made a point of isolating herself both mentally and physically from everyone other than a few chosen friends. Little does she know that her life is going to explode into chaos.

Excerpt:
She opened her mouth to scream.
“It’s me, Jake,” he said from the darkness, holding onto her arms to steady her.
She let out a long, shaky breath. “What was that?” she asked in a hushed voice. “You must have heard it. It sounded so awful.”
“It was your cat.”
“Marmaduke?”
“Yeah.”
“But I could have sworn it sounded more human than—”
“I stepped on his tail.” He cleared his throat. “Scared the hell out of both of us. He took off somewhere. Sorry about getting you out of bed.”
“I’m just glad I found out what it was. But what are you doing up?”
“I couldn’t sleep.”
Relaxing, she glanced up, only to be blinded by the night. Thick, black and total, it draped over Jake and everything around her. His hands, warm and strong, grasped her upper arms. She grew conscious of the coolness of the house, of the silk of her nightgown against her skin, but most importantly of Jake, of the deep woodsy scent of his after-shave and how his hands, minus the gloves, were now slowly sliding up and down her arms. Her toes curled beneath her. He smelled like what she envisioned a man should smell like. Desire lapped against her skin until it seeped through her flesh and took hold of her body.
He slid a hand up her arm and over a shoulder to cup her throat, while the other curled around her waist to press against the small of her back, inching her closer to the heat of his body. She met his lips halfway, opening her mouth beneath his. The kiss deepened, demanded and took. She raised a hand to feel his own against her throat. He had a long fingered, strong hand, the skin smooth and flawless over the tendons and knuckles. She touched his face, his neck, his shoulders. Against her palms, his skin was satin over hard muscle. He was all male, all power.
He hauled her closer, pressing her sensitized breasts against his chest as his tongue mated with hers. His desire thrust against the shallow hollow of her hips. The thick, hardness of him scorched through the material of her gown to her belly and turned her legs to liquid. She slid her hands over the sleek texture of his naked back, over the muscles and tendons, down across the indentation along his spine and lower.
She froze.
He was entirely, absolutely, completely naked, every male inch of him. She whimpered as her breath came out in short, shallow pants, and desire slammed against her, painful in its intensity.
Margot stiffened. Oh, God. Had she completely lost it? Where was her sanity, her morals? She hardly knew this man.
“No!” She dragged in a lungful of air. “This is all wrong!”

Reader Halloween Costumes Rock! - Part 1

I have the coolest readers! 

When I said I was missing seeing people dressed up in Halloween costumes and asked my readers if they could share pictures, I was wowed by the response!

Check out Bray's costume above, which her mom Ashley sent. Love it! I was just as impressed with Ashley's front door. Awesome!

And how about this cool Travelocity Gnome costume on my reader Bonnie? What an incredibly clever idea! And she actually wore it at work! Love that!



Then we have this adorable little troll! Yup, my reader Crys crochets troll hats! If that's not creative I don't know what is.

I'm loving receiving all these photos and will post more. Hope you like them as much as I do :-) 

Always, Lexi

The Devil's Fool by Rachel McClellan


A witch named Eve.  How charming. 
 

Yet, Eve has a long way to become a charming witch.  She sees the rage, anger, and evil of her parents.  Their actions are for power and greed, and Eve vows to not be like them. 

 A handsome vampire, Boaz, floats into her life and claims he can give her whatever she wants.  Their powers together are incredible and unstoppable.  Together, they kill and destroy just for a laugh.  And it’s intoxicating and addictive.

The Devil's FoolEve reveals her love for Boaz.  He gives her an ultimate gift from a vampire.  This gift will create more strength in their union.

Until an elusive vampire, Lucien, gives Eve his hand for a brief, new experience.

Lucien’s touch feels safe and positive.

Eve is left in a state of confusion between her initial vow to be the opposite of her parents and the fun experienced through falling into Boaz’s trap of love and the new warm and comforting aura Lucien covers her with.

For better or worse, which angle (or vampire) does she take?

An incredible romance based on the simple theory of right and wrong, power and greed, and the distrust of anything that appears too good to be true.  And a great Halloween read!!

Happy reading,

Dawn

The Highlander's Reward

I hope everyone is having a lovely weekend. I will be diving into a newly discounted book by Eliza Knight. She is one of my favorite authors. Just this week, The Highlander's Reward went on sale for just 99 cents. Check it out and read about the hunky Scot for yourself.


BOOK ONE: The Stolen Bride Series She belonged to another… But was destined to be his… Lady Arbella de Mowbray abhors the idea of marrying an English noble occupying Scotland. When she arrives in Stirling, she is thrown into the midst of a full battle between the Scots and the English. Besieged by rebels, she is whisked from her horse by a Highland warrior who promises her safety. But when he kisses her she fears she's more in danger of losing herself. The last thing Magnus Sutherland wants is to marry the beautiful English lass he saved. As the laird of his clan, he has a responsibility to his clan and allies. But when Arbella is attacked by one of his own men, he determines the only way to keep her safe is to make her his. A decision that promises to be extremely satisfying. Magnus brings Arbella to his home of Dunrobin Castle in the Highlands. And that’s where the trouble begins… Their countries are at war and they should be each other’s enemy. Neither one considered their mock marriage would grow into a deeply passionate love. What’s more, they were both unhappily betrothed and those who've been scorned are out for revenge. Can their new found love keep them together or will their enemies tear them apart?


You can find your copy here or at your favorite retailer.

Shameless Self-Promotion - Captivating Captains Box Set


Hello, gentle readers!
Doing a bit of shameless promotion here. My publisher, Crimson Romance (I love them!) is releasing a box set called Captivating Captains and my story, A Treasure Worth Keeping is included (whooo-hoooo!).
Here’s your chance to meet Captain Trey, my hero. I pictured Hugh Jackman the entire time I wrote it. Do you remember the movie Australia with him and Nicole Kidman? Most of the movie, Mr. Jackman is scruffy (unshaved, umkempt…you get the picture…love him like this!), but there is a scene where he cleans himself up—freshly shaved, hair slicked back, dressed in a white sport coat—that always makes me gasp no matter how many times I’ve seen it (hang on while I clean up my keyboard….I just drooled on it). Anyway, that’s how I picture Captain Trey.
         Here’s what A Treasure Worth Keeping is about:
Caralyn McCreigh has always believed in three things: that her father, Daniel, would never force her into marriage; that she could have a storybook romance with a man who sweeps her off her feet and a loving marriage like the one her parents share; and that Queen Isabella’s legendary lost treasure, Izzy’s Fortune, exists. When her father tells her that her marriage has been arranged, all her beliefs are shattered, and she does exactly as he hopes she will - embarks on a quest to find Izzy’s Fortune. She believes that if she finds the treasure, she’ll be able to buy herself out of a marriage to a man she doesn’t know or love. And who better to help her than Captain Trey, the infamous treasure hunter?
Tristan Youngblood, captain of the Adventurer and future Earl of Winterbourne, would much rather sail the oceans and search for lost treasure than settle down and take over the reins of the Winterbourne estates. However, when he receives news that his future has been decided for him, he knows he has no choice. He has no qualms against marriage itself, except for what he witnessed in the misery of his parents' union. He does not desire the same for himself, but instead of rushing home to England to court his future wife, Tristan accepts Caralyn’s proposal and embarks on one last grand adventure to search for Izzy’s Fortune.

ZOE'S MATES by Izzy Szynn and a $10 Amazon Gift Card Contest!

Zoe's Mates By Izzy Szyn
Izzy is giving away a $10 Amazon Gift Certificate. Please use the Rafflecopter below to enter. Remember you may increase your chances of winning by visiting the other tour stops. Those locations may be found here
Blurb: 
Previously released under the title Sexual Healing in the Coming In Hot Boxed Set. 
Zoe's Mates has been edited with some new material. 
Paramedic Zoe Whitaker is set to become engaged to Saratoga Falls Hospital's Chief of Staff Derek Barnes. But when his twin brother Liam returns with his lover Brent Taylor, Zoe begins to think she's with the wrong twin. 
Liam and Brent came back from Ravana for one reason only, to claim Zoe Whitaker.

Buy Link: Amazon

Excerpt: 
“What are you doing to me?” she asked them. “Making you ours,” Brent brushed the hair from her face. “You’re our mate, we’ve waited too long to take what is ours. What has always been ours.” Lifting her by the waist, Brent laid her across the padded bench in front of the couch. Kneeling between her thighs, Brent opened her lower lips, before sinking his tongue inside her. “BRENT,” she cried out. Damn, that felt good, she thought, opening her thighs wider, her hands going to Brent’s head, pressing him closer. Suddenly Zoe was glad that Derek wasn’t willing to do this for her. It seemed right that Brent and Liam were the first ones to give her the experience she’d always craved. “I love this table, it gives us the right angle to do certain things,” Liam said.  Zoe’s head lowered, Liam’s cock near her lips. Mentally licking her lips in anticipation. She just hoped she did it right, “Liam, I’ve never,” she started to admit.  You’ve never sucked cock before?” asked Liam, “Derek is even dumber than I thought. I’ve been waiting for the day that I can see your sexy lips wrapped around my cock. Sliding in and out of your mouth, down your throat. ”“OH FUCK ,” she yelled. Her body stretched, never in a million years did she think it would ever feel this good.
