    Mastering the Beast by @tinadonahue #RLFblog #eroticparanormal

    Today’s featured book is Mastering the Beast by Tina Donahue.

    About the Book

    Title Mastering the Beast
    Genre Erotic Paranormal-Romantic Comedy
    Author Tina Donahue
    Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
    Surrender is the only option she desires.
    Taming the Beast, Book 3
    No one believes that under the tough attitude and schoolgirl fashion sense, reformed
    demon Zoe burns for a man, love, and sex. She keeps those urges on ice and well hidden. She sold her soul for a guy once, and all it got her was a one-way ticket to Hell.
    Her job, keeping supernatural creatures in line at From Crud to Stud, is all work and
    no play. Until she’s saddled with a trio of new enforcers who ooze so much sexual heat she’s afraid to be on the same planet with them.
    Stefin, Anatol, and Taro try to contain their laughter as their adorable new boss tries
    to lay down the law. Apparently, no one told her they don’t take orders. They give them.
    And they’re determined to smooth her rough edges and tame her beast with acts so wanton they’ll make her scream—for more.
    Talk about all hell breaking loose. Surrender won’t come easily, but given their devilish
    charm and her aching need, her journey to submission is one done deal.
    Warning: Contains an unholy trio of demons who don’t like to take turns. Break room…snacking. After-hours…training sessions. In other words, a sensual ride on the pleasure express. Features m/f/m/m sex in every flavor except vanilla. Bring. It. On.

    Surrendering to the Beast @tinadonahue #RLFblog #paranormal

    Today’s featured book is Surrendering to the Beast by Tina Donahue.

    About the Book

    Title Surrendering to the Beast
    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.
