Customer Reviews

Only 2 were truly bad boys - in the best kind of way of course

5 Stars for Can't Get Enough - Shelly Laurenston I absolutely love the humor and writing style of Shelly Laurenston. This is a wonderful addition to the Dragon Kin series. Shalin was the perfect balance of smart, strong, forgiving and stubborn. Ailean was... a really good bad boy. I loved him and his family with their can do attituide no matter how grim the situation may appear. 5 Stars for Spellbound - Cynthia Eden This is the first I have read of this author and it will not be the last. Well written story that moved fast. A lot was squeezed into this short story and yet it could have been a full book, I almost wish it was. The sex sizzled and the chemistry between Serena and Luis came across rather well. I will definitely be looking for more of her books. 1 Star for Turn Me On - Noelle Mack Yet another new author for me and I was not impressed. I didn't care for the characters or the story. The story was written from Beth's POV, lacked purpose and just fizzled. Justin was not a bad boy, he was more like a little boy. I had a hard time not skimming over the pages.

A Paranormal Winner!

Enemies abound and Ailian will protect Shalin at all costs. If he can show her a good time while doing it, well who can complain. Watch the sparks fly between Shalin and Ailian. You won't be sorry! Cynthia Eden-Spellbound Witch Serena Tyme needs help finding and destroying the warlock that is stalking her and her coven. But who in their right mind would call a merciless soul-hunter! But that is exactly what Serena does, but what price will she have to pay to keep herself and her coven safe. No matter the cost, Serena needs Luis D'Amil's help in finding the warlock and destroying him. But since Luis is a tall, dark and sexy as hell assassin, maybe the cost won't be so bad after all. Definitely a wonderful read! Noelle Mack-Turn Me On Beth Danforth needs a new job and when she interviews with sexy Justin Watts, CEO of Spectasigns, she thinks she has finally found her niche.

irresistable bad boys

CAN'T GET ENOUGH by Shelly Laurenston Ailean the Wicked has earned himself a myriad of nicknames over the course of his lifetime. His fighting skills and success with females have garnered him attention that he never desired. The most troubling of all is Princess Adienna's obsession with him. She's taken her rage over Ailean's disinterest in her out on the one female who does hold his affection - Shalin the Innocent. It's going to take every skill in Ailean's dragon arsenal to save his dragoness but he's going to discover that Shalin is neither `innocent' nor appreciative. Ms. Laurenston had me laughing out loud through much of this story. These characters are absolutely a riot and I couldn't help but adore them. Shalin's a fireball with an attitude that equals Ailean's. He may have a reputation for being wicked but she's just as wicked - just far more `innocent' appearing which results in some hysterical scenes. SPELLBOUND by Cynthia Eden Serena Tyme will do anything to save her coven from the warlock who's marking the witches. That's why she's chosen to summon a soul-hunter. Luis D'Amil isn't happy about being yanked from his normal existence but he can't deny that having Serena indebted to him is extremely appealing. Will Luis be able to catch the warlock before he marks Serena a third time and binds her to him? During the course of their time together Serena and Luis share an unforgettable passion - what will happen when it's time for him to return to his `normal' life? Ms. Eden delivers a tale full of passion, magic and a bit of suspense that keeps readers eagerly turning pages awaiting each new scene. Serena's sensuality and fear of the warlock play a pivotal role throughout this story. Luis may live forever but he's lonely and that becomes glaringly obvious as you read. At first `glance' Luis and Serena don't appear to be a likely couple but by the time I finished reading I couldn't help but think that they're perfect for each other. TURN ME ON by Noelle Mack Beth Danforth has finally found a job that she loves working with SpectraSign. The best part of the job is her employer Justin Watts. Beth can't help but find herself incredibly turned on by the dynamic man. What she doesn't realize is that Justin is literally made of light - that is until they share a heated sexual encounter and she wakes up to find him radiating light. How on earth will Justin explain about his unique abilities so that Beth doesn't bolt? Ms. Mack's truly stunned me with this tale. I'd never considered light or any of the other elements as having a `life of their own' but TURN ME ON gave me a new perspective. Beth's willingness to accept Justin's oddity fascinated me and Justin's adoration of her really charmed me. I loved the unique way Justin gets himself into trouble and who he has to `call' for help. The EVERLASTING BAD BOYS anthology continues Brava's fine tradition of presenting readers with the bad boys we can't resist. Shelly L

Well worth the wait.

This is an excellent book, well worth the money paid for it. I read anything by Shelly Laurenston and Cynthia Eden and can't wait for their next books. I had not read anything by Noelle Mack before but found this story very good. If you do not like sex and paranormal themes do not buy the book and complain about it later. I highly recommend anything by these two authors.

Three different short stories

This collection of short stories contains three very different tales, each with their own charm. 'Can't Get Enough' by Shelly Laurenston follows the playboy dragon Ailean who's always getting in trouble, usually at the hands of a woman. When he has to take responsibility for Shalin the Innocent, a quiet dragoness, he discovers that there's more to Shalin than the other dragons think. As he teaches her how to live with humans, and that horses and puppies aren't dragon food but are pets, he begins to discover what's important and what's worth fighting over. This story was the longest of the three, taking up about half the book, and although original in its ideas I found it slightly lacking in other ways, but it was a decent read. 'Spellbound' by Cynthia Eden had a storyline which was slightly familiar but still enjoyable. Serena is a witch and in order to protect her coven from a warlock who is attempting to bind them decides to summon a special kind of demon, a cazalone, who is extremely powerful and can hopefully defeat the warlock. Unfortunately the demon that she summons, Luis D'Amil, isn't too keen about being wrenched from another job - and he's less keen when he realises how attracted he is to Serena. The two have to work together to track down the Warlock - but Serena's opinions of assassins like the Soul-Hunter might begin to change. This was a good read with both hero and heroine being well written and with good pacing. 'Turn Me On' by Noelle Mack was the shortest of the three stories and, although enjoyable, I found the pacing a bit odd. Beth Danforth goes for a job interview at SpectraSign and finds the new CEO, Justin Watts, a very attractive man. However when their working relationship moves to something more personal she finds out Justin's not quite what she originally thought. Can a being of light and a human woman be together without some of his energy rubbing off on her? This story moved in odd leaps occasionally where a couple of weeks had suddenly passed, and it wasn't very easy to get to grips with how Beth thought. Justin was written in a rather childlike manner and I felt some disbelief that he could be a successful CEO. I also felt the ending didn't entirely wrap things up as I wasn't too sure about the resolution of some of Beth's issues. Still, this story was a reasonable read and an original plotline.
