Stay Heated until the end.
I started reading this book and thought Oh its just the usual same old same old. Boy was I fooled. Javier and Lilah just burn off the pages. There has to be more to their story ,the club alone sounds so interesting. The character Snow doesn't even cool off anything in this book. The forbidden love that catches fire the way Ms. Heaton writes it leaves nothing to imagine their strong desire and pent up love for each other once they act on it. Wishing there is more to come as Lilah is turned . I can only hope . Thanks for the ARC.
I didn't want to give much of the story away to spoil it for everyone but I would love to read more about the character Snow. The way it was written he was sounding maybe evil but no way I believe there is a loving man there just needing the right woman am I a romantic nah! who me?

Unseen By Heather Graham my book review
The FBI has some unsolved murder cases linked to Rose Langley and the Alamo. Rose was supposed to have been kidnapped and murdered by Matt Meyer in room 207 at the Longhorn Hotel in San Antonio. Rose was hiding the Galveston diamond he wanted and she wouldn't give up. Agent Jackson Crow is sent to form a team of Special agents to find the killer of these woman who all seemed linked together. A woman was murdered recently in room 207 but the body was never recovered. Logan Raintree a Texas ranger and Wind Spirit lost his wife because he couldn't get to her in time and she died he is being considered leading the team he talks to ghosts. So does Kelsey O'Brien she was sent to consider a job offer ,currently a U.S.Marshall living in Florida. She is staying at the Longhorn Hotel because her childhood friend Sandy now owns it. Birds have a odd way of showing up crows mostly and they also get some help from a very old ghost they both see and talk to from the Alamo who is in love with Rose.Logan and Kelsey grow into a relationship while they work on the case. Kelseys friend Sandy disappears . Lots of things are going on in town a documentary of the Alamo ,a rodeo . More people are called in for the team even though no one really says they are a team they all work the case to solve the crimes. The ending is wonderful and leaves us once again with recipes.
I was roped from the beginning I do believe some in not seeing ghosts but feeling passed on family members presence in my home. I love to get to the bottom of a mystery even if its who left the coffee spilled on the kitchen floor for me to clean up.
Unseen starts off as a mystery for the two main characters because they are on a interview for a job not even knowing what's going on . Once they find out of course they are in but don't really say Yes they'll take the job. Their Special abilities are never really mentioned at the meeting . During the investigation they are always professional enjoying each others company on and out of work. Logan and Kelsey seem to fall in love but its never said just assumed they care for each other.I really did enjoy the story and only figured out the one killer but not til the end the other surprised me . I really do enjoy the recipes at the end just love Heather Grahams idea of that . Yet who killed the drowned woman ? Must go back and read it again think I missed something.

Frost Moon by Anthony Francis
Oct. 18,2011
Dakota Frost is a tattoo artist, not the normal one hers are magical she is also a Skindancer. She tattoed herself and her body tats move on her. Dakota is asked by her Uncle Rand to help find a serial killer who is killing magical tattoo artists and stealing tats some before the person is dead. Dakota gets many clients one is a werewolf named Wulf who wants a spell tat that will help him control his Wolf at the time of the full moon. Its a Nazi symbol so Dakota wants it checked out because it may be harmful to him. She is very careful about her art. Wulf has a lot of mystery about himself and this causes him to be a suspect when people start to die. Dakota also ends up with a challenge from a wizard who she admires . She goes to many lengths to help find the serial killer before he kills others or herself. Dakota also seeks protection from Vampires but they can only do so much . Her friends and herself end up in danger and a surprise person ends up saving her in the end. She does manage to defeat the serial killer with her magic even though he might be working for someone else. She meets a weretiger she saves and ends up adopting her. Seems like things are happy in the end.
This story was really good . I enjoyed it from beginning to end. Knowing it was fantasy the way it was written I could actually see the tats flying around the room. It had all the things I enjoy in a story. Took me until Chapter 41 to figure out who the killer was but I like a good mystery. I kept wondering why Frost Moon? Thanks so much for explaining that. I will definitely look forward to more . I hear there may be a lot more I can't wait.

The Evil Inside by Heather Graham
Oct 15,2011
Returning home finds Sam Hall in the middle of Haunted Happenings . He finds a young man Malachi drenched in blood. Malachi is accused of murdering his family. Not only them but naybe two other members of the town. He lives in Lexington House which has a past prior two owners have been killers ,killing their families. The town is full of tourists they love this time of year and the fact that witches and other religions are practiced there. Malachi has a firm supporter in Jamie who asks his niece to assist Sam on the case . Which being a lawyer he agrees to take after meeting the boy . The three believe he didn't do it. Jenna the niece is an FBI agent for the paranormal and brings in her team to help. The town people just want Malachi locked up but there lies another secret of some sort. Jenna has a talent to hear ghosts and see the past.
During the investigation Sam and Jenna are drawn to each other and become lovers. Among all the towns beliefs and the Halloween things going on things start to unfold. Since Sam's family was from the town he knew the Sheriff and was able to access some help. Jenna also knew people she went to school with but what really helped them was not the living in the end it all worked out well.
The story gave us some background but not enough to make it boring I liked that. Gave enough suspects and reasons to chose them and try to figure out on your own. Made you think Sam was going to be the one to figure out who the killer was yet Jenna did also. But the twist was there were two killers. Kept my attention through the whole story I enjoyed it from the beginning to end. Plus the recipes at the end were really nice. Thanks.

Blood by K.J. Wignall
Will is a really old Vampire who hibernates and wakes up randomly,someone prepares for him a room to live in under a church. He doesn't know who or why so he searches to find out. He must feed so he uses those that won't be missed like homeless people. He comes across a man named Jex who speaks to him of things about himself . As Will is killing him he tells Will he needs to save a girl and gives him a diary the girls picture is in it tells him the name of a person who is evil . Will sets out to find the girl and the person who made him a monster or gave him the sickness. Eloise is her name and Will saves her from some young boys who are harrassing her. He eventually has to tell her what he is and she wants to become just like him. Together they set out with some help from two other people to find the one who made Will a vampire fighting demons along the way. Finally Will comes face to face with his maker and doesn't get any answers before he has to kill him. He does find out there is a evil being that is more powerful in the world that has seen something in Will that made him seek him out . Eloise is also part of the puzzle and part of Will's destiny. She has the other half of the pendant that Will's maker had around his neck. Will was told by the Women who were accused of being witches and burned that the evil one will approach him and William will do evil . There is a wizard involved some how named Wyndham . He approaches one of the boys that harrassed Eloise and is training him for something . Wyndham believes that Will of Mercia is evil.
There were flahbacks explaining how Will became bitten during the burning of the witches. I couldn't understand why he would hibernate or why he was turned into a vampire and left alone for all those years. The witches and Wyndham seem to think Will is evil yet to me he doesn't seem to be and Eloise sure does trust him. He doesn't kill for the fun of it. I sure would like to know the answers I hope there will be another book. Kind of leaves too many unanswered questions just when it was starting to get good.
