When Jenny Miller’s widowed mother becomes engaged to the father of Jenny’s ex-lover, Jenny is torn. She knows a renewal of her affair with Robert, her soon-to-be stepbrother, could jeopardize her mother’s marriage. But Robert was the sexiest, most commanding lover Jenny has had, and though he has a reputation as a heartbreaker, she yearns to get him back in bed.

When Robert plays the role of Pirate Blackwell in a video production, and Jenny plays the pirate’s wife, Robert’s passionate on-camera kiss sends Jenny’s libido into overdrive.

But now that Robert was about to become Jenny’s step-brother, she fought to find a way to curb her desire for the gorgeously masculine man. For one thing, Robert was not the settle down and commit kind of man. It would be emotionally dangerous to lose her heart to him. Also, her family had no idea of their earlier relationship and Jenny wanted it to stay that way, not knowing how it would be received.

Jenny, a practicing lawyer, is basically a conservative person. She has never had any success in choosing a man because she has always worked from an ideal of attributes that she believed would make a good husband. Ideals that she compiled using only the analytical side of her brain. But Jenny is not emotionally one-dimensional. She has a passionate, spontaneous side to her as well.

To forgive is divine…if he can pin his lover down long enough to beg for it.

Poconos Pack, Book 1

Ben Malone’s role as Marshall attunes him to every nuance of the pack’s wellbeing—which means he’s forced to feel every one of his mate’s hangovers. It’s the one reason Ben will never claim Dave Maldonado. Being alone is better than being with someone who lives in a bottle.

Dave was destined to be a pack Alpha until his first migraine hit at age fifteen, the day he caught his future mate holding hands with another boy. In the nine agonizing years since, he’s contented himself as Beta, but never learned to live with the pain and confusion of Ben’s rejection.

Dave’s worst attack yet sends him to the hospital—and brings them both face to face with the misunderstanding that’s kept them apart all these years. It’s too late, though. Dave is headed for Gay Pride Week at Disney World with one goal in mind. Forget Ben Malone.

Ben’s got a problem with that. Only one man is destined to hold his David. And he’ll give anything, even his last shred of pride, to win forgiveness—and the right to finally claim his mate.

Dana Marie Bell has written a touching romance of misgivings and mistakes, and new starts.

Ben Malone has known since he was fifteen that David Maldonado is his mate. But he refuses to claim him, because he is determined not to become involved with an alcoholic like his father. Ben suffered too much from his father’s drunken rages, and will never go through that again, even for his mate.

For David’s part, he doesn’t understand Ben’s attitude. He also realized long ago that Ben was his mate, and has been hurt by Ben’s attitude. After the most recent migraine attack, one that leaves David unconscious and hospitalized, he decides to go away and try to forget his mate once and for all. Better to not have a mate and be lonely, than to endure Ben’s scorn and derision every day.

When the pack alpha sits Ben down and lays the whole situation in front of him, Ben learns that drinking is not the cause of David’s pain, and what Ben thought were hangovers, were in fact severe and debilitating migraines. Now that he knows, Ben is determined that no one but him will ever claim his mate, and he realizes he has some serious groveling ahead to win the forgiveness of the only person he has ever needed. These drugs are very effective but it must be accurate according to your body viagra no prescription icks.org need.

This is the first of her Poconos Pack stories, but it fits together beautifully with her Halle Puma series, focusing this time on the wolves of Rick’s pack. I like that so many of the ‘old friends’ from the Halle Puma series are here, and to be honest, I have been waiting for Ben and Dave’s story for a long time. This one was worth the wait. This is filled with romance and of course, Ms. Bell’s marvelous sense of humor is ever present, making this one a joy to read.

David Maldonado is the pack beta to Rick’s alpha. He is big, strong and gorgeous; a gentle giant of a man. He is confused by Ben’s attitude, and decides to give up his dream of being claimed by his mate. He suffers through his headaches without complaint, and I could feel his pain, physical and emotional, throughout this story. I enjoyed the lengths he went to, once he had Ben where he wanted him, and the things he had Ben do to gain forgiveness were, at times, hilarious.

Ben Malone is pack Marshall, and he believes he’s doing the right thing for himself by not claiming his mate. Ben is strong and yet there is a vulnerable part of him, the part his father put there so long ago. When he sees what he believes are the signs of the sickness of alcoholism that gripped his father, in his mate, he refuses to be hurt again. When he realizes his mistake, he is miserable. I loved watching him ‘grovel’ to get his mate to his side, and laughed along the way with what he was willing to do.

This is a touching love story about two people and how misunderstanding and secrets can come between them. David and Ben needed to open up and just talk, and much of their heartache would never have happened. I loved some of the secondary characters that were new to this story, and I would love to see more of both Steve and Charlie in future books from Ms. Bell. I enjoyed the experience of this story, and was delighted with the happy ever after for these two.

Living in a world where men were treated like a rare commodity, Ethan Spears did what he could in order to survive. But when the proverbial rug was pulled out from under him, desperate measures called for desperate actions. To save his sister, he entered The Lottery, offering himself to one woman for a year.

Karlyn Bowman was a rebel in her family, choosing not to climb the corporate ladder in order to pursue her love of art. Lonely, ostracized by the family who should have loved her, she pushed forward trying to become a success. When her friend gives her a lottery ticket to cheer her up, she puts it aside and forgets it. Imagine her surprise when the knock came to her door and her life—and his—were changed forever.

“For every one male, there are thirty plus females on this planet. Men are chattel, plain and simple”, used to serve women. When Karlyn Bowman took a lottery ticket for her birthday, which was against the law, to please a friend she did not think she would “win one calendar year with a hot, sexy, man toy.”

I will admit I was not sure if this was a story for me with an orgy and the whole male sex slave thing in the first chapter. However, I had to give the book a chance by reading a few more chapters to see if it picked up and if there was some kind of unique plot in the works. Wow! Let me tell you I am so glad that I did.

Ms. O’Hurley has been added to my list of favorite authors after reading The Lottery and I will be looking for more of her books from here on out. The sex scenes are great but the story line is just amazing and well worth reading. Don’t let this one pass you by because believe me it is definitely a first-class read. I am so glad that I didn’t stop after the first chapter because it would have been my loss and I would have missed out on a literary tour de force.

GUEST BLOG: A.R. NORRIS

Right There the Whole Time
By A.R. Norris

Almost two decades ago now, I walked into a billiard room and ran smack into something I thought didn’t exist…love at first sight. No, really, I did. He was six and a half feet of pure sexy male, leaning on a pool stick, waiting to hose my cousin for all of his money. His mischievous bright green eyes peered across the room, zoned right in on me, and shot me through the heart with his devil-may-care grin.

Okay, okay…it wasn’t love. But it was that spark of attraction where my woman instincts kicked in and warned my heart that man would be mine.

What came after surprised me. What happened wasn’t in any of the romance books I read. Wasn’t spoken of once in any of the juicy stories told around the girl’s night table. Heck, never even seen in a movie.

We didn’t play a game of cat and mouse with each other. There were no “evil” females waiting in the wings to chase me away and take my place. There wasn’t even an antagonist with wary plans to have him move halfway across the country.

No, he took me to his parent’s house. We bowled, ate pizzas, hiked, went to movies, and…hung out. I found out he hid his shyness with the hot grin I took for cocky sureness. That twinkle I assumed was mischievousness…it’s a natural zest and joy for life in general. Not only that but I found out the cool red-head was, in fact, a geek himself. We became best friends over cheesy B flicks and Japanese television. This AC/DC lovin’ man trusted me with his — now don’t tell anyone — secret love for Chicago.

What’s more, I learned he dreamed of fatherhood, always wanted to live near family, and loved Valentine’s Day. Looking back, I realized I had a wonderful romantic story that was probably closer to fairytale than, well, fairytales.

Why weren’t more authors writing about this kind of romance? Why weren’t these true Princes ever told? It was crazy. It was insane. It was…an opportunity. Sometimes the world around the characters are so chaotic, the romance doesn’t have to be. The romance, in turn, can be the stabilizing force for both main characters. The one thing in their crazy world that keeps their compass on target.

I guess, in summary I’m trying to say…love doesn’t have to be difficult. Love is an exhilarating experience that — when finding the right person — should bring strength and sense of wholeness and rightness to one’s life. That should be celebrated more, don’t you think?

In my debut novel,Duty and Devotion, coming out next month from Desert Breeze Publishing, I worked in a romance similar to mine for one of the sisters. Yes, there’s a bit more hesitancy on her part than was ever in my relationship…I mean, come on, it is fiction, it is space, and it is set in war time. Poor Nettie has a lot going on in her life.

But, her romantic build up is with someone who’s both a peer and a friend. And even though she freely admits his attractiveness, they share a light and funny camaraderie that supports her through some very tough times with the strength of their friendship. In the beginning of the story she thinks she’s fallen into love in two of the stereotypical places: the strapping yet reserved leader and the mysterious and sexy dancer.

In the end, love was right there all along…in a friendship that hadn’t blossomed to its full potential. Below is an excerpt showing this relationship. (Watch out…warning there are a couple curse words and suggestive terms. These are soldiers, ya know.)

Excerpt:
The three waited just long enough for the Commander to exit the training deck before they did a little dance and hugged. Kaitlin picked up both Nettie and Jenny and tossed them a few feet before she headed towards the locker. Nettie ran and jumped on Kaitlin’s back, piggybacking into the locker room with Jenny practically skipping ahead of them.

“Don’t celebrate too soon…we’re on our way in,” a voice taunted behind them.

Nettie slid off Kaitlin and turned to see James Northman standing at the simulator entrance. Man, he knows how to work the hotness. Tall and fit with dark auburn hair and piercing green eyes, he stood with a confidence that bordered on cocky.

“Don’t get overly excited, Northman. Wouldn’t want ya coming down with blue ball,” Nettie hollered.

Northman’s laugh echoed through the large simulation room. “Thanks for the advice. I’ll remember it.” He blew her a kiss and turned to enter the simulator.

“Ugh, that guy drives me crazy,” Nettie grumbled. Giving another appreciative glance at his fit rear-end, she headed into the locker room with the other two.

Kaitlin chuckled and started to strip. “Well, he and his crew are good. If it’s not us getting first, it’s them.”

“It’s us more,” Jenny defended.

“Damn straight,” Nettie agreed. They high-fived each other.

*****

“Lunch is always so exciting,” Nettie picked at her pasta-like meal with suspicion.

“We’re out in bum-fucked universe. What do you expect?” Jenny forced a bite. Her scrunched face gave enough information.

Kaitlin plowed through the meal and downed some water. “What? It’s good.”

“You think this is good? What do you all eat on Jupiter?” Nettie asked, incredulous.

Kaitlin looked up, her pink and purple eyes swirling as she paused to think about it. The cartilage around her mouth tightened. “Hmmm. Oh, this and that I guess. Our taste is underdeveloped so…pretty much anything that can go down tastes fine.”

Someone tapped Nettie’s shoulder.

“Well, looks like you won today, but only by a slim percentage.” James leaned against the booth, his head in between her and Kaitlin.

“Well, maybe next time,” Nettie held her smugness in check.

James smirked. “No comeback? Is war over? ‘Cause I know hell region froze over.”

She nudged him lightly and chuckled. “Shut up. Fair’s fair and you were sportsman enough to come by.”

James gave her a wicked smile and winked. “Well…I did have an injury.”

“What happened?” Jenny asked, a flicker of worry in her eyes, before Nettie could stop her.

James laughed. Nettie and Kaitlin stared at their friend, waiting for her to remember. Jenny finally caught on and groaned. “Oh, you are such a sicko. Outta here you perv.”

“Quick bite first?” he asked. “We ran over, hence the second place.”

Jenny handed him her plate. “Just take it.”

“Thanks, lovely.” He took it, winked at her, then tossed an amused grin at Nettie. “Catch ya next time around.” He ruffled her hair and headed off to his crew’s table.

“What an ass.” Nettie straightened her hair into place.

The gorgeous woman in the booth has been nursing a coke all night since her dinner and Sam refreshes her drink before heading into the back room to restock.

This scorching hot story sparks and flames off the pages and doesn’t stop burning until the last word. There is trouble in all this heat when the heroine gets a bad case of cold feet. I won’t give away the ending, but I will say that the hero does rise to the occasion. My only complaint is that the author didn’t take it deeper into the telling and make the story a little longer. Even so, she did an excellent job of setting the pace and of turning out an engaging, upbeat story with interesting, believable characters and hot, wild sex. I enjoyed it thoroughly and recommend it highly.

That’s the question when it comes to Cody and Keata.

Despite being in constant danger from unknown sources it’s nice to see the mates being able to cut loose and live a little.

Keata’s story has been a long awaited addition to the series. I’ve ondered since book five who his mate would be. The struggles these two men have endured are completely worth it in the end.
