    Genre Erotic Paranormal-Romantic Comedy
    Author Tina Donahue
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    When she’s good, she’s very good. But when he’s bad, she’s better.
    Taming the Beast, Book 2
    As a good fairy, Heather is empathetic and chaste to a fault.
    No bad language, no dirty thoughts, flirting and no sex. But when a satyr named
    Daemon steps up to her reception desk at From Crud to Stud, she finds herself on
    the fast track to exquisite corruption.
    Daemon is the total bad-boy package with a kiss straight from
    the dark side. Though he’s here for a supernatural makeover, Heather can’t imagine
    why any red-blooded woman would want him to change.
    A disciple of the god of wine, Daemon has had his share of good
    times. But sex has never been this good. Heather brings out a new side of him, a
    side that makes him want to protect as well as pillage.
    But Daemon needs a little creative backup to help set his fairy’s
    naughtiness free. And that means bringing in Mistress Jin. Under the genie’s tutelage
    and Daemon’s shameless lust, Heather is about to learn what it means to let loose.
    Warning: Not your typical bedtime story. May lead to indecent
    behavior, a taste for voyeurism, discipline, bondage, m/f, m/f/f and f/f action,
    which will result in screaming orgasms. Proceed with caution.

    The featured book is Bringer of Chaos: the Origin of Pietas by
    Kayelle Allen, owner of the Romance Lives Forever blog. 

    Publisher: Romance Lives Forever Books
    Heat level: PG13
    Genre: YA (older young adult), action adventure, science fiction, space opera, military
    science fiction, space marine, genetic engineering
    Two enemy warriors: one human, one immortal. Different in belief, alike in spirit,
    marooned together on an alien world.
    Imprisoned and in isolation over a year without food or water,
    the immortal Pietas survives. Though broken in body, his intellect and will are
    intact, thanks to Six, the special ops warrior who captured him, but kept him sane.
    The warrior had no hand in his deprivation and, like Pietas, was betrayed by his
    own kind. When Pietas is abandoned on an alien world with nothing but his honor–and
    Six–he must find and rejoin other immortal exiles. After centuries of war, Pietas
    detests humans and kills them on sight, but he is too damaged to continue on his
    own. Though he despises needing help, he allows Six to nurture and restore him to
    full strength, and then accompany him. As they cross the planet together on foot,
    the immortal begins to wonder if he has found his first human friend, or if Six
    is loyal only because Pietas could keep the others from tearing him to shreds. This
    human will either be his closest living friend, or the one whose betrayal will trigger
    all-out vengeance by the most powerful immortal ever born.
    Immortal. Warrior. Outcasts. Traitors took everything. Except
    their honor.

    Seduction in Seville a new #Romantic Suspense by @olivianightread #RLFblog

    This quick interview includes info about the author, and introduces the story.
    About the Author
    Olivia Night, a fictional character herself, has always been an avid reader and writer. She found the romance genre in college and has never been able to get enough. One sleepless night, the main characters of Book One in her Men of FTI  series sprang from her head fully formed. They demanded she tell their story; so she did. As they revealed themselves, so did two other intriguing characters. Those characters convinced her to give them their own books because their stories were worth telling too. And so Olivia suddenly became a romance author. When Olivia is not writing, she has the best job in the world, which, too, will remain a secret. In her free time, she reads, write, drinks wine, or is, most likely, out emulating Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Olivia lives in one of the most diverse and vibrant cities in the U.S.—Baltimore. She lives with her cat, which she is convinced was a gladiator in his past life. Olivia plans to continue being awesome at this thing called life. Really, that’s her only goal.
    Interview with Olivia Night
    Why did you write this book?
    This novel is the second in a series. The main characters, Patrick Kane and Madison Lockwood are introduced in the first novel. Their story is very different from Seduction in Sierra Leone, but all the suspense, sexiness and love are all there!
    What is your favorite genre to read?
    It actually varies depending on my mood. But I have an entire book case dedicated to Historical Non Fiction and Biographies. So totally different from Romantic Suspense obviously!
    Who is your favorite character from fiction (not including your own)?
    Anne Shirley, without a doubt. I love her spunk. And I like to think that I have it, too!
    What are you working on at the moment, and will see from you in coming months?
    The third novel in this series, Seduction in Scotland will be released on August 1st. I also just finished a manuscript for a new series tentatively titled A Second Chance Series. I am really excited about both of these novels. A spin off of The Men of FTI is in the works as well. The series is titled Interitus and follows a  group of military men who are part of a secret “peace making group”.
    Please tell us about your latest book.
    About the Book
    In a hospital in Seville, Spain, Patrick Kane lies in a coma. Ambushed and shot while protecting a friend, he fights to survive.
    She never thought she would see him again. Patrick, the man who’d brought her back.
    Eight years ago, Patrick Kane, a joint partner in Fairlane Trade International, descended into a basement of horrors. That horrible day he rescued many women, but one he would always remember. Her beautiful doe eyes filled his dreams and haunted his nightmares.
    Madison Lockwood, a nurse, has struggled to put her past behind her, trying to forget the time she spent in captivity. But she recognizes the man who rescued her and brought her out of that terrifying reality. She owes him her life. Patrick is gravely injured, and Madison vows to see him through.
    When Patrick opens his eyes, he instantly knows that he made a mistake leaving Madison after freeing her from the clutches of a human trafficking ring. She is meant to be his. As Patrick tries to win over a wary Madison, the past they both thought was gone for good comes back with a vengeance. One by one, the survivors of the horrific ordeal are being murdered. Patrick knows that Madison will be next if he doesn’t protect her.
    Together they must fight for their survival. Seduction In Seville, book two in the Men of FTI series, is a tale of redemption, murder, new beginnings, and love that takes the reader on a wild, exotic ride.

    The Pleasure Device (Harwell Heirs Book 1)

    Title The Pleasure Device (Harwell Heirs Book 1)
    Genre Historical erotic romance
    Author Regina Kammer
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    In Victorian London of 1879, a new device for the treatment of hysteria has just arrived from France. Dr. Julius Christopher plans to use the invention for his own salacious scheme. Can Dr. Nicholas Ramsay prevent his beloved, the virginal debutante Helena Phillips, from being the next patient?
    The Doctor and The Debutante
    Nicholas Ramsay, renouncing his aristocratic heritage and dark past, has chosen a career as a doctor. He arrives in London ready to embark upon his practice and find a suitable wife.
    Helena Phillips, born into scandal and disgrace, is making her London debut. To atone for the circumstances of her birth, she must find a titled husband—no less than an earl will do.
    A Dangerous Passion
    Nicholas and Helena’s chance encounter during the Season leads to a dangerous attraction–and forbidden explorations. A taste of passion leaves Helena longing for more, and her lovesick wretchedness is confused for hysteria, a mysterious ailment afflicting many Victorian women.
    A Devious Scheme
    Dr. Julius Christopher’s new electro-mechanical vibrating machine for the treatment of hysteria is the perfect device to test his radical theory of female sexuality. To fully explore his hypothesis, he requires a virgin and seeks to ensnare Helena for his experiment.
    Can He Save Her?
    Nicholas is determined to rescue Helena from the clutches of Dr. Christopher. But to prove he is worthy of Helena’s hand, Nicholas must reconcile with his past, embrace his future, and show her pleasure is more profound when coupled with love.
    The Harwell Heirs
    Victorian aristocracy has very strict rules concerning marital connections and familial obligations. But the Harwell heirs—Helena, Sophia, and Arthur—discover love doesn’t always follow the rules. Scandalous affairs force these scions of society to choose between duty and desire, deference and destiny.

    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    In 1860, the railways of Victorian England transport American stevedore Joseph Phillips to the lush countryside of Lincolnshire…and into the arms of Lady Sophia Harwell. But Sophia is betrothed to a violent villain who wants only two things: her virginity and her dowry. Can Joseph save his beloved without scandalizing upper-class British society?
    The Lady…
    Lady Sophia Harwell has just been presented to Society—and its eligible bachelors—and is quite unimpressed. Her parents are encouraging the suit of the Duke of Royston, a man older than her father! Yet free-spirited Sophia is smitten with Joseph, her brother’s handsome American business partner, a man who introduces her to sensual delights beyond the bounds of propriety and the dictates of her social standing.
    …And The Laborer
    Joseph Phillips is out of his depth amongst the British aristocracy trying to secure investors for his American railroad enterprise. To make matters worse, he can’t keep his hands off his business partner’s sister. Sophia is far out of his league and expected to marry a duke. But when the duke reveals his villainy, Joseph decides some risks are worth taking, and, to protect Sophia, he embarks upon a partnership of an entirely unexpected nature.
    The Harwell Heirs
    Victorian aristocracy has very strict rules concerning marital connections and familial obligations. But the Harwell heirs—Helena, Sophia, and Arthur—discover love doesn’t always follow the rules.

    Meet Queen Morgan from King Arthur’s Sister in Washington’s Court #scifi fantasy @KimHeadlee #RLFblog

    Meet Queen Morgan from King Arthur’s Sister in Washington’s Court by Kim Headlee.

    Author Bio

    Kim Headlee lives on a farm in the mountains of southwestern Virginia with her family, cats, fish, goats, Great Pyrenees goat guards, and assorted wildlife. People and creatures come and go, but the cave and the 250-year-old house ruins—the latter having been occupied as recently as the mid-twentieth century—seem to be sticking around for a while yet. She has been an award-winning published novelist since 1999 (Dawnflight, first edition, Simon & Schuster) and has been studying the Arthurian legends for nigh on half a century.

    About the Book

    Title King Arthur’s Sister in Washington’s Court by Mark Twain as channeled by Kim Iverson Headlee
    Genre Science Fiction and Fantasy
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings G, PG, PG13, R): PG for combat violence, language, and Victorian-style innuendo
    WINNER, 2016 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Gold Medal for Science Fiction & Fantasy
    Morgan le Fay, sixth-century Queen of Gore and the only major character not killed off by Mark Twain in A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, vows revenge upon the Yankee Hank Morgan. She casts a spell to take her to 1879 Connecticut so she may waylay Sir Boss before he can travel back in time to destroy her world. But the spell misses by 300 miles and 200 years, landing her in the Washington, D.C., of 2079, replete with flying limousines, hovering office buildings, virtual-reality television, and sundry other technological marvels.
    Whatever is a time-displaced queen of magic and minions to do? Why, rebuild her kingdom, of course—two kingdoms, in fact: as Campaign Boss for the reelection of American President Malory Beckham Hinton, and as owner of the London Knights world-champion baseball franchise.
    Written as though by the old master himself, King Arthur’s Sister in Washington’s Court by Mark Twain as channeled by Kim Iverson Headlee offers laughs, love, and a candid look at American society, popular culture, politics, baseball… and the human heart.

    Introducing Queen Morgan the Wise

    Welcome to Romance Lives Forever! We’re happy to have you here today.
    Name: Morgan
    Age: Sixteen hundred and eight in the latter years of your century. In my rightful century, my age is none of your concern.
    Gender: Female
    Birthplace: Tintagel Castle
    Profession: Queen of Gore
    Ethnicity/Species (if not human): I am human. That is all that should matter to you mad people.
    Describe your body and build, skin tone, height and weight. Include any unique features such as dimples, freckles, or scars.
    My glorious silken hair is auburn. Anyone who calls it “red,” like that of the coarse, unruly mane sported by my dead husband, King Uriens, shall join our dungeon’s denizen who made that same mistake. Provoke me to exceptional anger, and I shall arrange faux funerals of your kin for you to watch from your window slit too.
    All my other features are kept perfect by cause of my magic… or cosmetics, to which my assistant Clarice introduced me in your century. Using cosmetics in lieu of magic I have found to be ever so much more efficient in terms of energy expended, allowing me to focus my magic on far more important pursuits, such as causing the peerless Malory Beckham Hinton to become President for Life (she vetoed my idea to make her Queen of America, though I know for a certain fact that she would be quite good at it).
    Who is the significant other in your life?
    In my ancient life, the man I loved best was Sir Accolon, the comeliest of men and manliest of lovers. In the latter twenty-first century, Sandy Carter—who could be my dead lover’s twin—owns my heart, and I his. Sandy surpasses my dead lover in all respects, bedchamber prowess most especially, by a hundred fold.
    Please tell us a little about yourself.
    My name, Morgan, was chosen by my mother, Duchess Igraine, to honor the Great Queen of the Old Religion, Mór Rigan, goddess of war. My mother never knew how prophetic her choice would prove to be.
    I am the daughter of Duke Gorlois, the sister of Queen Margawse and Queen Elaine, the wife of King Uriens of Gore, and the mother of Sir Uwaine of the Table Round. Blessed good fortune made me all of these things.
    By the capricious hand of ill fortune, King Arthur became my younger half brother, spawned upon my most virtuous and blameless mother by that demon in man’s raiment, Uther Pendragon.
    I despised Arthur from the very hour of his birth.
    What is your viewpoint on wealth?
    I love it, of course, and the more, the better. It can be quite the burden, but it does convey its own brand of magic too.
    On what special skills do you rely?
    Have you not heard of Morgan the Wise, healer and sorceress extraordinaire? What is the name of the rock under which you have been living?
    What kinds of things do you always carry (in pockets or purse)?
    I am never without my circlet, for I find it useful in your lunatic century to remain mindful of my true nature. Well… almost never. You shall have to read my chronicle to discover what caused me to become bereft of that symbol of royalty, which had to do with the other item I keep concealed upon my person for emergencies and which I am fully capable of wielding to deadly advantage: a dirk.
    Do you have children?
    My only son, Sir Uwaine, lies dead and gone these past fifteen centuries. But a mother never forgets the tautness of that eternal bond, I assure you.
    Do you care about what others assume about you?
    La, what a question! I am a queen. Of course I do not give a single overripe fig for what the masses think of me; I do not require their approval, only their obedience. That said, however, there is one man whose approval I have sought more and more often of late: my lover, Sandy. He has been known to influence my decisions even when he is not present. I find that most disconcerting… and yet not at all unpleasant.
    If someone from your past showed up, who would you most want it to be, and why?
    When Sandy reunited with his lost and presumed-dead sister, I discovered that I craved to see my long-dead brother, King Arthur, that I might set things aright between us. That wish looks unlikely to be fulfilled, alas, though I do remain hopeful that it shall come to pass one day.
    What inner doubt causes you the most difficulty?
    I never had experienced such a calamity of the arts as when my time-travel enchantment failed by three hundred miles and two hundred years. Since I know not how the spell went awry, I confess I have been afraid to assay it again, lest it leave me forever lost in time.
    What are your biggest hopes and dreams?
    Although I have experienced marvelous adventures in your shiny new century, and Sandy has become more dear to me than any other man I have ever known, I do hope I can one day return to my rightful era. I have made quite a fine place for myself as owner of the London Knights world championship baseball team, but I do not belong here. Sandy, naturally, wishes for me to stay,—but he is man enough to bow to my wishes in this sensitive matter. He is, was, and always will be such a daisy.
