Greek tales of Monsters and Gods have become a common place in modern stories. Retellings abound giving a tragic turn to Medusa or Hades. Award winning author, Rita Arens shares a romantic retelling of Helios, which will have you cheering for more!

Blurb:
Instead of heading to college, eighteen-year-old Meg lucks into a temporary position as personal secretary to Helen Cleaves, CEO of Aethon Power & Light.

When Helen's charming son turns his romantic attention toward Meg, she finds herself pulled along on Parker’s rule-bending quest for power within Aethon -- and her own struggle to determine the woman she will become.

What happens when you're not ready for the power you desire?

Revisit the Greek myth of the sun god, Helios, and his son Phaeton -- only this time Helios is Helen, the fiery-haired chief executive of Aethon Power & Light in Chicago and Phaeton is Parker, her hot-headed son and only heir.
​
THE BIRTHRIGHT OF PARKER CLEAVES offers for mythology what Marissa Meyer’s CINDER did for young adult fairy tales – a nostalgic plot, a powerful love interest and a fresh twist.

This week, I review Stuber. If you want, you can listen live on WHMI on Monday morning at 8:40 am or you can check out my review on my review page. 

Have you ever booked a Uber? Good or bad experience?

Vampires are portrayed as being single minded, only thinking about their next meal. But in Clara Winter's series, we see the important pieces they played in history. Now in the third book of her Immortal Kindred Series, we see bad boy vampire Alexandre has turned a new leaf after losing his head!

Blurb:
Love has no limits…

Alexandre has retreated from the world. He has no one to love, nowhere to call home. While licking his wounds in the middle of nowhere, Alexandre is approached by Irish lass, Bria. She has a proposal for him; to follow her to Ireland and fight demons.

Alexandre finds this amusing, but intriguing. More than anything, he is curious to see the individual who sent Bria, someone from his ancient past. 

In Ireland, Alexandre confronts a dilemma greater than fighting demons. He must face down fiends of all kinds, deciding once and for all who he really is. Sparks fly between Bria and Alexandre, adding to the already complicated situation. Can a bad boy vampire really change?
 
The King of Kings is set in southern Ireland with a glimpse back to Ancient Egypt.
 
EXCERPT:
The finely decorated lobby was full of posh men and women, all wearing their best designer clothes and bespoke suits. Bria wasn’t fazed in the least by her surroundings as she devoured a granola bar, crumbs falling to the marble floor. She was wildly out of place here and I kind of loved it. Her flaming hair was enough to draw attention. Her clothing, which screamed survivalist, made her that much more conspicuous.

I moved up behind her. “You deserve a spanking for the ruckus in the hallway.”

“The man who spanks me is suicidal,” she said in a loud voice, drawing even more looks from the guests and staff. Bria began walking toward the glittering revolving door, not bothering to see if I followed.
​
We took the train to the coast, making it just in time. Bria chided me the entire way for “sleeping in”. I couldn’t wait until we were on the boat with what I hoped was a roaring motor.

Blurb 
Having come so close to Parliament falling into a foreign country’s hands, Amy wishes to help keep her country safe by being the finest spy Chavier has ever taught.
 
Since no one but Chavier, and those who know her well, perceive her to be anything but a charming, but silly young girl, she will have easy access to those who are apt to cause trouble, since they will think her harmless.
 
Amy is the finest spy that has ever existed. Her ability to hide in plain sight is almost magical. Her ability to heal is beyond what should be possible. Her hearing is acute as is her ability to smell. Thus, she can throw a knife with accuracy in the dark and hit her targets with precision. In addition, she now knows ten languages: English, French, Scottish, Dutch, Russian, German, Portuguese, Finnish, Spanish, and Swiss. Thus if, someone whispers in a different language she not only has acute hearing to hear it, but it is very likely that she will understand what they are saying.
 
EXCERPTToday, Amy had managed to arrive for their mid-day meal before Chavier. Thus, she was able to fill her plate with her favorite meats, fruits, and vegetables. She even made a little plate of meats for Patience, which she held in her lap.
Chavier entered and smiled at her full plate. “Did you leave me anything to eat?” he chided.
“Shall I ask the head server to bring out more?” Amy asked. “I’m sure she will, if I ask.”
Chavier gripped her hand and kissed her knuckles in a sensual manner that made her hungry, but not for food.
“I will share my food, if you wish,” she offered and moved her chair closer to the corner.
“I believe you are sharing sufficiently with your pup. I will manage with the scraps you’ve left.”
Her forehead wrinkled. “Truly, I do not want you to go hungry.”
“That will never happen. Since the head server adores you, she ensures you nor I ever go hungry.”
“She does. but still, I will share my food.” She stabbed a thick chunk of roast with the serving fork. “Would you like this strip? I’ve already eaten two slices.”
Chavier laughed. “I have no idea how you remain so thin given the quantity of food you consume.”
“You may have this slice if you wish.”
“No, I’ll just take the scraps you left me.” He then stabbed the remaining cut.
Just then, the head server entered with a fresh plate of roast strips.
“My, but you two must be starving. When was the last time either of you ate?”
“Yesterday,” Chavier replied.
“Me too! What were you doing yesterday?” Amy asked.
“We’ll discuss that later,” he promised Amy.
She smiled, hoping that meant she was going to do more spy work. Her first attempt at spying had gone very well. Chavier had hidden documents in the library and she had found them all before the hour was up. However, this time she wanted it to be a real event. That would be ever more exciting.

More About the Author
Liza O’Connor’s favorite books are Pride & Prejudice and Douglas Adams’ four book trilogy, The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy. Go figure…
Raised in the southern mid-section of U.S., Liza escaped to the East Coast once out of college. She’s worked as a journalist, a radio DJ, a security guard, a stockbroker, a strategist, and a business solutions consultant to name a few of her many occupations. Again…go figure.
She learned to fly planes, jump out of planes, hang-glide, kayak and scuba dive, to name of few of her ‘let’s kill Liza’ sports. However, her favorite activity was to hike with her dog Jess among the shaved mountains of NJ. Jess is near 20 years old now, so he’s not up to much anymore. So I just garden and write more books.

Do you have a favorite horror movie? I loved Poltergeist and the original Friday the 13th movie. 

Many of us dream of a perfect mate. The one who can complete us, making us feel loved and appreciated. What if that was someone who could shield you from harm? Their magic worked in harmony with yours. What if they were the last of your species?

Ms. Pagano's new series is about a supernatural hotel where the last two faeries find themselves. Neither one came in thinking about love or a perfect mate, but they found it...along with danger. 

Blurb:
Hidden in plain sight, is a mysterious hotel that doubles as a supernatural refugee: The Soppronaturale. 

Each supernatural inhabitant has a specific purpose, job, and destiny. 

All to keep the hotel running and its secrets safe.
 
Vampires exist. Werewolves exist. Witches exist. Shape Shifters exist. And now Faeries exist. 

The last two Faeries, once unified, could be the most powerful forces on Earth. 

Ommily, newcomer to the Soppronaturale, offensively controls and manipulates the four elements; Fire, Earth, Wind and Water. While Link defensively uses their energy to shield Ommily and himself from even the darkest magic. 

They could protect all others. But first, they have to defeat the Gauntlet.      

EXCERPT:
The elevator doors cut off our connected gaze. The second they shut, I hunch over the counter in relief, leaning on Kyran.

“What the hell was that?”

“I think you mean, who the hell was that?” Kyran pats me on the back. An evil and cunning smirk creeps across his face.

“What do you mean who?” I grip my chest, scrunching up my starchy uniform underneath.

Kyran spins me into the back room when no one is watching. “That, my dear boy, that was you. The only other you in the whole, vast world.”

“That’s impossible.” I say in a brittle voice, my eyes swelling with tears.
​
“Impossible…yet here she is.”

About the Author:
Ashley Pagano has always dreamed of being an artist both figuratively and literally. Her love of art was instilled by her mother who always inspired her to be creative either with a paintbrush or with a pen and paper. As far back as she can remember her life was always centered around introspection, storytelling, and imagination. Because she is so artistic, she took to the idea of creative writing very passionately. Her ability to describe a scene, person, or place, she compares to painting a picture, where she can describe every detail vividly in order to make the reader feel like they’re truly living in the story. Her works of writing usually center around a powerhouse female protagonist (which reflect her own personality), who progresses through many wild and extreme obstacles. Ashley loves to write stories that end with a cliffhanger, that have the reader begging for more and questioning what happens next. Her most recent novel sets the stage for the paranormal romance of the century and includes ghosts, poltergeists, and demons who just love to get in the way of true love. Ashley has won awards for her design, art, and writing. 

Ashley doesn’t believe in down time whatsoever and actually loves having a full “To-Do”list. Ashley is a wife to her wonderful husband, Eric and a mother to a beautiful little baby girl named Dakota. She is also a Graphic Designer and a health and fitness coach. Her husband and daughter inspire her to be the best person she can be and encourage her to pursue any of her dreams (no matter how extravagant they may be).

EXCERPT
Dan tore down the gravel driveway and turned onto the highway so fast the back of the truck fish-tailed.
“Dan, please, if we die who will care for Danny and Alice?”
He slammed on the brakes and brought the truck to a complete halt. “So, you remember our children?”
She stared at him in confusion. “I didn’t do this to hurt you or them.”
“Did you think about them when Alex was enjoying you?”
“No. I wasn’t thinking about you, the children, or my wonderful life. All I was thinking about was this insatiable need for pleasure that I couldn’t control.”
His face tensed with fury, but his words came steady and firm. “You could have controlled it.”
“No, I can’t. I know you can control your desires, but then Alex doesn’t come after you. You have no idea the hell I’m in!”
“You don’t think women come on to me?” he challenged.
“I’m sure they do, but I don’t think they have one tenth of the seduction skill Alex possesses. I can resist normal come-ons. My problem is with Alex.”

Ms. O'Connor's books grab you tight and take you for a ride. 

Little Falls is a wonderful town where people look after each other but sadly some people have their own agenda's. In this case, Carrie found her world turned upside down one day and reaches out to the one person who is there for her. Little did she know just how devious he was. 

I really enjoyed the first book in this series and couldn't wait for the second. It had everything I love- horses, cute kids and love. Ms. O'Connor didn't disappoint in book two! The stakes were higher but the happy ending that much sweeter. 

Michigan is beautiful this time of year. Everything is green and growing. Flowers are blooming and the weather is warmer...It's the time for romance in the air. Michigan author, Susan V. Vaughn has tapped into the Michigan romance for her latest release, Sweet Escape about two unlikely people who fall in love despite their differences. And while you don't have to be a Michigander to appreciate the story, it does give you an added bonus seeing your town come to life!

Blurb:
Ted Harper knew moving to Milford to open his dream bar wouldn’t be easy. But he could have never imagined he would be so easily distracted from his goal. Violet Marino is beautiful, smart, captivating, and unfortunately, his next-door neighbor. Now Ted has a dilemma on his hands he didn’t anticipate as his life becomes entangled with a woman he can’t seem to forget.

Violet Marino has spent decades caring for her family and working at her father’s restaurant as a waitress. Hardly the life she dreamed of living when she was a little girl. But after her mother died, she was never a little girl again. Thrust into the parenting role for her two younger siblings, Violet sacrificed everything for their well-being.
​
When a handsome business owner offers her more than just a sweet escape, Violet is tempted to take him up on the offer. Even if that means jumping into the unknown. 

EXCERPT:
He saw another opportunity to tease her and decided he had to take it. She kept leaving herself open. “Oh, I get it. You’re one of those narrow-minded types.”

“I am not!” she said with outrage.

He shook his head sadly. “Sounds like you are.”

“No, I just…” She paused, seeming lost. “Well, look at you. You’re like this perfect, broken nose Ken doll.”

And there was the bad review based on his “cover”. “So you’re saying I’m plastic and handsome?”

She exhaled noisily, obviously flustered, and he enjoyed every minute of it. “I just mean, you’re, like…well, you are handsome, I guess. Probably to most women. But that’s not the point.” 

She seemed frazzled, like she was trying to talk herself out of admitting any attraction. But he had seen the heat in her eyes when they locked gazes, and he wasn’t about to let her off the hook. “So what’s the point?” 

“The point is you don’t look or act like someone who spends his off time reading books.”

“That’s the funny thing about me.” Seeing his opening, he stood up and walked over to her chair. “I have a lot of layers to my personality.” He grabbed her hands.

She arched her head back, staring up at him, probably trying to figure out why he was now standing so close and touching her. “What are you doing?”

He pulled her to her feet. If he waited any longer to kiss her, he would probably lose his mind. 

“Showing you another layer,” he said, and then, before she could react, he pressed his lips against hers and felt the world come alive.

Three dominant men will rock her world…
 
Surrender might be a wanton Malibu club, but it’s hardly fun and games for Jacquie. As the owner’s assistant, she’s all work and no play. That changes when three bad boy rockers scout the lifestyle club as a provocative idea for their new album.
 
As the frontman for Dominant Men, Max is lusciously male and unqualified alpha, eagerly playing Dom to a willing sub. Backup singer and lyricist Andy is more laid back. However, his wild, reddish locks hint at the fire within, which he proves in bed. Entertainment reporters have dubbed composer Devlin ‘the blond devil’. To him, vanilla sex is for when you’re too old to make the effort. The more daring the play, including BDSM, the faster he’s onboard.
Ready to live, Jacquie offers to be their carnal guide through Surrender, willingly delivering herself to these sexy beasts for an adventure like no other.
 
This is book two in the Surrender series but can be enjoyed as a standalone
 
Publisher’s Note: This steamy, contemporary, reverse harem romance is intended for adults only. It contains elements of sensual scenes, power exchange, and adult language. If any of these offend you, please do not purchase.

Excerpt:
The door swung inward.

My freaking god. This is actually happening.

Max entered first, pure alpha, his features rough, grin mischievous, his freshly washed hair dancing over his shoulders, his stubble tempting as hell. Tonight, he wore a dark blue suit, a sapphire shirt, and matching tie. Totally hip. At twenty-nine, he was male to the extreme.

Bree rattled the papers to catch Jacquie’s attention for the performance she suggested.

No good. Jacquie couldn’t look anywhere except at him. To keep from throwing herself into his arms and ruining her badass-chick act, she dug her nails into her palms.

His gaze zipped down her, crawled back up, settled on her cleavage for a long, long while then inched up to her mouth, where he also lingered, then met her eyes.

Male interest sparked in his, his grin widening.

Warmth poured through her, followed by certainty she’d rarely known. Bolstered, she returned his smile. Not as a fan, but as a woman needing a man’s firm touch, followed by his regard, respect, and tenderness. Something crossed his face.

Pleasure? Passion? Both? Neither? She couldn’t read the emotion. Crap.
Tempering his earlier joy, he stepped deeper inside, homing in on her, Bree forgotten, no one else existing for him.

Worked for her.

Andy entered the office, his auburn hair striking, his baby blues soulful yet also eager. The perfect combination in any man and ideal for a lyricist who wrote songs that brought her to tears. She liked his burgundy suit, gold tie and shirt, the colors outstanding on him. Unable to wait any longer for his smile, she grinned hard enough to make her cheeks hurt.

His preppy features lit up. He blushed then beamed, more beta than alpha.

Fine with her. He was a year younger than Max and Devlin, his response to her the greatest gift she’d known.

Devlin elbowed past both men, his dark blond hair swinging, his leather suit outrageous and totally him. Like Max, he was alpha to the core, at least during their performances and in entertainment articles she’d read. His tuxedo shirt and bowtie tamed him—somewhat. His beard-shadowed cheeks, upper lip, and chin showed what a bad boy he was. He winked.

Her smile approved of it and everything he was.

Bree cleared her throat and tossed the papers on the desk. “We’ll go over those details tomorrow. For now… Gentlemen, welcome. Max, Andy, Devlin, this is Jacquie Reynolds, my assistant. Jacquie, Dominant Men.”
They stepped forward as one, delivering their heat.
Max offered his hand first. She slipped hers inside his and almost died. His palm was calloused and hot, one thousand percent masculine, his touch firm yet tempered in strength. At six-three, he looked down at her, the stilettos not making a dent in their differing heights.

“Nice to meet you, Jacquie.”

His smooth, deep voice caressed her name. She’d never forget the sound. “The pleasure is mine.”

No lie, given how she melted inside. However, her tone remained even, not betraying her arousal or anxiety.

He offered another killer smile and leaned closer, his brown eyes so dark they looked black.

His scent washed over her, something fresh and aquatic, similar to the sea. Fitting for a man who resembled a pirate. Wild. Unrestrained. Commanding. He was definitely starring in her first romance. She shook inwardly.

Devlin offered his hand next, crowding out Andy who either didn’t mind being one-upped or wouldn’t show it.

Not liking Devlin’s behavior, she gave him a cool look.

He smiled sheepishly and bobbed his hand up and down, reminding her what to do next. “It’s great to meet you, Jacquie. I hear you have no equal in your work. I don’t doubt it for a second.”

At his praise and silky baritone, her disapproval crumbled faster than a sandcastle during a hurricane. His solid grasp said he wouldn’t let go anytime soon. Exactly what she needed from him in bed. “I do my best. I’m delighted to meet you, too.”

He stroked her thumb.

Pleasure blossomed within her. She reeled.

“I’d say we’ve waited far too long to meet.” He brushed his lips over her knuckles, his stubble rough, mouth ungodly soft.

Another second of him being his devilish self and she’d beg him to do her then ask the others for the same. His sensual, bold fragrance enthralled, a spicy-musky scent bringing to mind torrid summer nights, satin sheets, and naked flesh.

Before she lost what scant control she had, she eased her hand from his, ready to meet Andy.

He regarded her boobs, plumped by the dress, then met her gaze, with naked craving in his eyes.

His brief intensity surprised her, his grip as impressive as the others, but also friendly and caring. His scent proved minty, pleasant, and masculine.

It should have calmed her. Instead, her desire shot into the stratosphere. “Hey.”

His grin stretched ear to ear. “Hi. Great to meet you, Jacquie. Thanks for showing us around tonight. I’m sure you have other work you could be doing.”

Loving his rich voice, she shook her head hard enough to make the earrings tap her jaw. “Not in the least. That stuff can wait until tomorrow.” She looked at Bree. “Right?”

Bree struggled not to smile. “It’ll be waiting for you at your desk when you come in. Until then…” She regarded the guys. “Have fun. Enjoy Surrender. Let your imaginations run wild.” After giving Jacquie a knowing look, she ushered them from her office.
