I found this as I was searching the web and thought you guys would enjoy!

I have officially validated my word count for NaNoWriMo and have been declared a winner!! This was an amazing opportunity and I can not even begin to thank all the new and old friends that have helped me along the way.

Now I just have to wrap up the ending to my book to submit to Avon publishing next month! Fingers crossed!

Wishing you and yours a Happy Thanksgiving and many blessings for the holidays!

I have to say that I really enjoyed this book. It is one of those books that you can sink into the head of the main character and really understand what drives her.

Julia is your typical college graduate with no really “career” prospects. She is locked into what I would describe as unhealthy relationships. There is Greg who is her drugged up sex buddy who wouldn’t know a woman loved him if she knocked him over the head. There is Brian who is Bi, but I suspect as feelings for Julia. Then there is Duncan. He is the college boyfriend that cheated on her but she still manages to have a pseudo relationship with.

It was nice to read a story that was not front to back sex scenes. She alludes to sex between the characters but the story was more about Julia’s interpersonal relationships. All in all a very good read, and I am happy to support a fellow Wrimo!

I have to admit when I first became aware of this series, I was expecting something a little darker and more erotic. To hear some of the stories and television reviews, this was a truly naughty set of books. Now that being said, I really did enjoy this series. It took me 2 days to read all three of the books(thank goodness they were all available on my Kindle!). I laughed and giggled through most of the books, Ana really was very naive on so many levels. I did find it strange that a 21 year old in today’s society wasn’t a little more knowledgeable in some of the sexual areas. Not necessarily in the actual sexual acts themselves but she just seemed to lack some basic sexual knowledge. Christian, what can I say about him other than yummy? This is a man who knows what he wants and takes it. I am in awe of his prowess. I would recommend this series to anyone that wants a good love story with a little bit of edge to it.

Sex and Vampires. Does life get any better than that? I am huge fan of real vampire stories(Twlight was okay but not earthshattering)and Ms. Hughes knows how to bring the steam to the pages! Rafe is a creature that all paranormal romance readers would love to sink their teeth into and I am awed by how well developed his character is. Cara is an interesting heroine to say the least. The dynamics that arise between the main characters is amazing and I was surprised at the way it all played out. This is one of those books and series of characters that you find yourself longing for more of.
