Charley Davidson isn’t your everyday, run-of-the-mill grim reaper.  She’s more of a paranormal private eye/grim reaper extraordinaire.  However, she gets sidetracked when the sexy, sultry son of Satan, Reyes Farrow, moves in next door. 

To further complicate matters, Reyes is her main suspect in an arson case.  Charley has vowed to stay away from him until she can find out the truth…but then dead women start appearing in her apartment, one after another, each lost, confused, and terrified beyond reason.  

When it becomes apparent that her own sister, Gemma, is the serial killer’s next target Charley has no choice but to ask for Reyes’ help.  Arsonist or not, he’s the one man alive who could protect Gemma no matter who or what came at her. But he wants something in return. Charley. All of her, body and soul. And to keep her sister safe, it is a price she is willing to pay. Charley Davidson is at it again in Fifth Grave Past the Light, the sexy, suspenseful, and laugh-out-loud funny fifth installment of the New York Times bestselling series by Darynda Jones.

PRIME SELECTION by Monette Michaels

BOOK 2 of the PRIME CHRONICLES Series

DESCRIPTION

Commander Nadia Petrovich, Science Officer of the Alliance Starship Galanti, has a problem, which has nothing to do with science. Her problem is Commander Huw Caradoc, the Galanti’s Chief Engineer. She and the stubborn Prime male have a growing connection he refuses to acknowledge—a bond that could drive him mad.

They are connected psychically and the bond grows stronger every day. If Nadia didn’t know it was impossible, she would suspect they were mating in the Prime tradition—a biological imperative that locates and marks a Prime’s optimum mate. But she isn’t Prime, as Huw tells her and anybody who’ll listen.

Nadia’s emotional anguish couldn’t have come at a worse time. The Prime and Galactic Alliance merger is finally under way, and the all-male Prime crews are learning how to work with female Alliance crew members. The Antareans threaten the outer arms of the Milky Way, and Prime rebels wreak havoc on the Prime home planet and elsewhere.

Despite the conflict surrounding them, Nadia and Huw will not be able to avoid their fate or their growing love. Prime selection will make the decision for them whether the timing is right or not.

If you hang around with dead people, life can get pretty complicated. Take it from Charley Davidson, part-time private investigator and full-time Grim Reaper. Complicated is her middle name.

When Charley and Cookie (her best friend/receptionist) have to track down a missing woman, the case is not quite as open and shut as they anticipate. Cookie's friend Mimi disappeared five days earlier. Mimi then sends Cookie a cryptic message telling Cookie to meet her at an nearby coffee shop. The coffee is brewing, but Mimi's still missing. There is, however, a clue Mimi left on the bathroom wall: a woman's name. Mimi's husband explains to them that his wife had been acting strange since she found out an old high school friend had been murdered. The same woman whose name Mimi had scribbled on the bathroom wall.

Meanwhile, Reyes Alexander Farrow (otherwise known as the Son of Satan. Yes. Literally) has left his corporeal body and is haunting Charley.

Because if the demons get to Charley, they'll have a portal to heaven...well, let's just say it wouldn't be pretty.

Can Charley handle hot nights with Reyes and even hotter days tracking down a missing woman? Can she keep those she loves out of harm's way? And is there enough coffee and chocolate in the world to fuel her as she does?

FIRST GRAVE ON THE RIGHT by Darynda Jones

A friend said to me over a year ago, "You'll like this series. It's different. The heroine is a Grim Reaper." I scratched my head and read my Science Fiction Romances when I had time. I confess Book 1 lived on my ereader for a while, making me feel guilty when I saw it. 

When I finally did get around to reading it, I consumed the entire series in a couple of weeks. Now I'm as bad as any other fan. I nag Darynda for the next one every time I see her. They are funny, smart, and yes--they are different.

If I still collected print books, these would go on my shelf.

Complicating matters are the intensely hot dreams she's been having about an entity who has been following her all her life...and it turns out he might not be dead after all. In fact, he might be something else entirely.

But what does he want with Charley? And why can't she seem to resist him? And what does she have to lose by giving in? With scorching-hot tension and high-octane humor, First Grave on the Right is your signpost to paranormal suspense of the highest order.

Combining Romance with other Genres

I am a risky reader. I like my romance with healthy dose of originality and rule breaking. How about you?

As an author, I'm currently writing Science Fiction Romances because I had this Star Wars, Star Trek, Firefly inspired itch I had to scratch before it drove me crazy. Gads, they're fun to write. Fight scenes. Aliens with mega powers. Laser weapons. Bigger spaceships. Missions to rescue people.

My paranormal work

But I'm also filling up my ereader with Dragon books because they are my current reader of paranormal books obsession. Friends turned me on to Thea Harrison's Elder Races series a few months ago. On a recent plane trip, I devoured Dragon Bound (Book1) on the way there and Storm's Heart (Book 2) on the way back. Two others in the series are now waiting for me. I think I have every G.A.Aiken book. I have Kate McAlister's. I have author friend Liliana Hart's which has a setting like an Urban Fantasy and maybe one of the toughest dragon heroines I've ever read. Recently, I also met Bianca d'Arc at a conference where she was on a panel talking about dragon books. I have two of hers now.

The point is that I found these amazing authors through friends who loved Dragon books and told me about them.  I've been trying like crazy to find a way to spread the word about my SciFi Romances in the same manner.  Maybe potential readers just don't know where to find them.

I'm starting this site with the hopes of just collecting, featuring, and referring out books to readers who love this kind of work.  At the moment, I do not plan to do any reviewing. There are plenty of sites that do that. I might connect to review sites. I will definitely connect to where a title can be purchased and/or the author's website. I will "feature" authors who want to be featured and offer them a chance to include a cover shot, author bio, and excerpt from their work, if they are willing.

Here is what I'm planning to do with this site, but this list is subject to change as I change:

1. Build a giant list of all kinds of paranormal books, authors, and links. See the links across the top for the starting ones. To keep this from getting too crazy, a book will only be offered in two lists, so if you're a reader, please look at several lists.
2. Feature an interesting book once a week or so.
3. Take reader questions and get authors to answer them. For example, I might ask "What's the dragon like in your books?" and get several dragon book authors to answer. The number of ideas here are endless.
4. Feature author interviews.
5. Keep the blog as PG 13 as possible, going no further than R ratings in language, presentation, etc. I don't want to block readers and demand proof of their maturity. While I read some SciFi and Paranormal Erotic romances, I don't want the headache of filtering them on this site. In those cases, if an "Erotic Paranormal/SciFi" book is featured, the article will most likely contain the author's photo linking to their web page where you can see the book. That said, I am not going to put warnings next to books about what is in them, so let the reader beware that they will occasionally run across a shifter menage or a shifter m/m book. The point is to collect paranormal. Sub-genres are the prerogative of the author. 
6. Though I love all writing, I guarantee no listing. Low ratings over time (indicating poor crafting/editing), taboo subject matter (incest, etc), and books that I wouldn't share with my reading friends will not appear here. My hope is to make these recommendations as genuine as possible.

Well, that's certainly enough goal setting for the blog post. Hope you find something here that piques your interest.
