Review by Poppy

Contemporary witch Cara Augustine is wanted by the Portalkind police. She broke a major covenant when she accidently made a werewolf her witch’s familiar. That crime is considered enslaving a human—and the punishment is death. But even on the run as a fugitive, she quickly learns a Synemancer’s life is never simple as she fends off an amorous Nephilim who has just learned he’s a powerful combination of half-angel and half-witch, a treacherous and deranged French werewolf who wants to enslave her, and the darkly handsome, formidable Nightkind who is determined to marry her. Each powerful supernatural man has his own reasons for wanting to possess Cara, body and soul, and nothing will stop them from pursuing her. In an effort to escape the Portalkind police, Cara and her companions stumble into another dimension and find themselves in a strange Garden of Eden. But they quickly discover that this dangerous world, filled with strange creatures that are both deadly and beautiful, is no paradise. Can Cara survive this world and find her way home? And if she does, will it only be to face her execution for a crime she didn’t mean to commit?

For a new twist on the paranormal genre, try Angel of Syn. I’ve never read a story with so many different paranormal beings, and hadn’t ever heard of a synemancer before. There’s a sexy nephilim, a super hot werewolf, and yummy Nightkind all fighting for Cara’s heart, soul and body.
There are mainly two different problems a man can not satisfy his partner. soft pill cialis Prescription for Kamagra medication:* No levitra pharmacy not take Kamagra if you are a patient of any of these health conditions- high or low blood pressure and recent occurrences of congestive heart failure, low blood pressure, consumption of medications for high blood pressure.

From the first page this book is all go-go-go … excitement, action, danger. Don’t pick this up unless you don’t mind heart-pounding thrills. Cara finds herself in constant danger, sometimes her own fault, sometimes not (and once it includes a scene that some may find disturbing).

The characters are many, but are well drawn and easy to tell apart. This was the second book in a series, but it only took a couple of chapters for me to figure out what was going on and I didn’t feel overly lost. I’d suggest reading book one for a clearer idea of the overall story, but I read book two without it and still enjoyed what I read.

The author has a skill with words and kept me engaged. I wasn’t overly excited by Cara’s constantly revved up sex drive, and having three men after her (and having her attracted to all of them) was sometimes overwhelming. Still, Angel of Syn is a good read, and I’d recommend it to any fans of the genre.

Review: Dance With Me, My Lovely

Dance With Me, My Lovely
by Jaye Roycraft

Cate Greenbush knows that a strip club isn’t the way to meet men, but when your job is talking to dead people, boyfriends are hard to come by. She also knows that the sexy headliner of tonight’s show is nothing more than a fantasy, and a dangerous one at that. During the performance she sees an image of a dead woman and a shadowy figure she fears is her killer, the dancer.

Vampire Garran Lux has no such lack of sexuality, and his public persona flaunts it to the world. During the week he’s an instructor at a dance studio, and on Fridays he headlines as an exotic dancer. But it’s a double life he leads, for his private life is one of secrecy and loneliness as one of the undead. Still, he’s been very successful at maintaining the balance in his existence.

Until now.

For some reason, the beast that rules his vampiric side is becoming stronger and harder to control. Without the control of his “human” side, he fears he’ll start killing again, and being reckless is no way to survive immortality.

Cate is an urban shaman who specializes in spiritual healing and soul retrievals. She’s shocked to find that her seven o’clock appointment is her fantasy lover from the strip club. But the young man insists he needs her help to repair his life, though he doesn’t explain the past tragedies that have led to the splintering of his soul. She agrees to help him, in spite of her fear that he may be a killer.

The quest for Garran’s lost soul becomes an exploration of human desire and inhuman lust. In the end the search is for love, if only Cate and Garran can survive the perilous journey to the Land of the Dead.

I really enjoyed that the story was written from both characters point of view, it made it interesting to see how each was feeling at the exact same time. I really liked the idea of showing how Cate and Garran’s past experiences with love and sex. Kamagra cialis prices in india is a compound called sildenafil citrate, which was earlier introduced to treat increase in blood pressure. Causes The dysfunctions in the process of lovemaking and natural male enhancement oil can be used to increase power and strength naturally. tadalafil order Frequent excessive use of alcohol can cause difficulty to achieve erection or buy viagra india erectile dysfunction. In their desire to obtain this permission they risk losing a significant number of their business generic levitra nichestlouis.com base since people are tired of the abuse. “Please, don’t send me anything – I know who you are and there are no legal issues associated with it. It gave you a look into why they are the way they are now. Cate does not know that Garran is a vampire when she first sets eyes on the hunky dancer at the strip club. She feels an intense connection with him that scares her. A woman’s spirit comes to her in glimpses while staring up at the dancer. She then wants nothing to do with him as she feels he could be a killer.

Garran later finds himself feeling lost and is looking for that piece of him that he is unsure will ever be found – his soul. He appears at Cate’s door looking for her spiritual help in the long journey to the Land of the Dead to reclaim his lost soul. She does not realize that he is a vampire at first, even with their first journey to the other world, nor even after their first romp together on the floor after coming back from the Land of the Dead together.

I have never read anything with a Shaman in it and reading the descriptive passages of how a Shaman’s journey actually works was very intriguing, especially when a vampire is involved. And then to add the intense sex scene at the end of that first journey made it all the more exciting.

The course of Cate and Garran’s relationship was a very different journey – one that brings them to the edge of death searching for a lost soul together. If that can’t bring two people together than what can? Trust is a big theme in the story as well. Both characters needing to be open, honest and share with each other so that they can trust enough to get through their issues.

Can a vampire truly get his soul back and fall in love with a human?
