Publishers Weekly has reviewed My Lady Quicksilver by Bec McMaster.
Full review here."The third trip to McMaster’s vampiric steampunk world (after Kiss of Steel and Heart of Iron) is rich, dramatic, romantic, and dangerous. ... Sensuous memories and unfulfilled desires help build tension between the leads, and fans will enjoy the expansion of McMaster’s detailed setting."
It also received a 5 star review from Tome Tender.
"Bec McMaster weaves a fabulous tale, with each twist and turn you get pulled deeper into her storytelling web. The characters are genuine with detailed backgrounds that envelop you into their plights. Insurmountable odds, an epic romance, facing the ultimate sacrifice, McMaster's writing genius brilliantly shines through."

Christina Phillips received a 4 star review from Romantic Times BOOK Reviews for Bloodlust Denied:
"Phillips takes on a tricky trope in this steamy paranormal novella but navigates it with skill, keeping her characters and readers in the dark for as long as possible and captivating them with the heady sensuality and visceral desire of each scene. The dangerous, addictive passion that singes the main characters is all-encompassing and surprisingly revealing."

Christina Phillips has received a Thumbs-Up Thursday and 5 star review for Tainted from Love, Lust & Lipstick Stains:
Full review can be read here."What starts out as an extremely erotic, yet thoroughly sensual and beautiful relationship between Gawain and Antonia, soon turns into what I could quite easily class as epic love. It's the kind of story where everyone is against them and you can't see how they could possibly be together yet you yearn for it so much your heart aches. They come together very quickly but the chemistry is so intense and Antonia's reasonings so logical that is doesn't seem rushed and it's easy to see why they fall for each other. Both are strong characters in their own way, balancing out one another and both are able to laugh and love generously."

Two covert operatives, adversaries, forced to unite to prevent a heinous crime...
Lucien St John, has been deep-undercover for two years working to expose corrupt businessman, Karl Chekno. Playing a role long-term has consequences. Lucien is prepared to do anything for the mission, including sacrificing his real identity. With success almost in his grasp, he must produce a fictitious fiancé, or jeopardize his cover.
Jade Walker, ex-covert operative, is re-enlisted to act as the demure future bride of the one man in the agency she detests. A week spent living together at Karl’s country estate, could it get any worse?
Unfortunately, yes. Discovering their suite is under audio/video surveillance, the agents must give an award-winning performance in and out of the bedroom.
Jade attracts Karl’s personal interest, putting her in danger. With suspicions aroused, events turn sinister. Refusing to fail, Lucien and Jade risk everything, including their lives…
The Hostage
A covert operative so secretive, she’s known only as Omega…
Kidnapped, held in chains, beaten and without hope. Wealthy businessman James ‘North’ Northam believes he’s a dead man. Until a daring rescue by a woman who disappears before he can thank her.
North is compelled by a powerful need to track down his mysterious saviour. The truth he discovers about her is both surprising and intriguing. Omega has always kept her covert identity separate from her real life. Until James Northam invades her world, and her privacy.
This determined, impossibly distracting man is getting under her skin. Her plan is to deny everything until he gives up and goes home. The plan doesn't seem to be working. And so begins a battle of wits between two very strong willed people. Neither of them realise someone else from Omega’s past has tracked her down, for much more sinister reasons.
Astrid Cooper's latest release (m/m paranormal romance) is Love at First Lick (Bk#7 in the Monsters "inK" series), debuted (and remained) at no. 4 in the publisher's best-seller list. Her other Monsters back titles also featured as best-sellers, too.

Trouble enters his life in the form of the snow leopard shifter, Shandor, whose sexy smile and emerald eyes are firmly set on Zef. The damn cat won’t take no for an answer and Zef and Shan play a game of catch me if you can. More than whiskers twitch in the game of chasey between the two men. But just when Zef thinks he can trust a cat, Shan discovers the truth about Zef and that sets the cat among the vampires…
