Make Me Shiver by Heather Slade

 There are still dukes and duchesses, spies, and assassins in the current world.

The Duke of Wells, nicknamed Shiver, is in line to move up when his ailing father dies.  Intelligent and iconically good looking, he has a problem that keeps him on his toes other than running a county in the near future.  His problem comes in the female form with a lot of metaphorical fires to put out.  


Losha is her name.  The rest about her is unimaginable such as she is a former Russian assassin on the run with her baby.  Once the property of Russia, it's impossible to divorce yourself from the government's grip.  She has a bounty on her head and only a few people she can trust to help her escape.  

With a large team to help him find Losha, Shiver will not stop his search and believes he can save her and the baby, no matter who the father is.  

Their past, filled with intensity and lust and love, does not allow Losha to give in to Shiver.  It's a path of deception, killing, and hiding until a romance may have a chance if the heart wins on both sides of the game.

Happy reading,

The Kremlin Conspiracy by Joel Rosenberg



Oleg Kraskin impresses the Russian president and is honored to be given the right to marry his daughter.

Oleg didn’t know there’s a price to pay when marrying into the oligarchy at the highest level.  Can he keep his marriage filled with love alive? Will his thoughts and actions as he realizes the intent of the president separate or kill the marriage?  Especially for what Oleg feels he needs to do for the love of his country.The Kremlin Conspiracy

Marcus Ryker already met the end of his marriage in a shooting that shattered his life.  In the U.S., being a secret service agent never leaves the blood even after Marcus took a hiatus for four years.  A close friend requested Marcus to return to action on a simple detail, protecting a senator traveling to Russia.  He’d try it just this once.

In Russia, Oleg sat next to the Russian president.  Oleg approached Marcus, on the side of the senator, and congratulated him for his many honors.

That was the start of Oleg’s precarious activity in contrast to his loyalty to his president.  And Marcus’ biggest test to protect his country.

Oleg And Marcus have a treacherous goal that may cost them lives and love, or strengthen both.

Well written and spellbinding.  Each scene heightens the possibility of growth or destruction in nation and in personal love.



Happy reading,

Lie To Me by Tori St. Claire


The intense suspense and erotic nature of Tori St. Claire’s novel is a magnificently written tale of Sasha Zablosky’s and Alexei Nikaniva’s connection to human trafficking and the CIA’s covert operation to break it up deep in Russia’s political venue.

Everybody lies to everybody to attain their missions.  This includes the beautiful Sasha and gorgeous Alexei.  Matter of fact, Alexei is the one who trafficked Sasha as she was mistaken for another two years prior to the story. 
Lie to Me -- Tori. St. Claire
Alexei is supposed to be one of the good guys, but how can Sasha accept this when he’s the one who put her in jeopardy.  Can she believe he’s trying to save her now, or put her in the hands of another militant?

Lie To Me has a plot loaded with surprises and well developed characters.  If only I could’ve butted in and told Sasha and Alexei about the lies that slowed their escape tactics and love, they would’ve been happy a lot soonerJ
