Welcome to the
Romance Madness Hop! I'm thrilled to be one of the participants because this hop, hosted by
The Romance Reviews, is all about the romance. I have been an avid reader for as long as I can remember, and romance has always been my genre of choice. I love everything about it. That first glance the hero and heroine share, accompanied by the sudden racing of their hearts. Their first words. First shared laugh, particularly if that laugh is elicited from one who doesn't do so often. First touch. And, of course, those happily ever afters. :-)
While I read romances of just about every subgenre, paranormal romance is my favorite. That's why I chose to explore
it when I dove into writing myself. So, for my prize, I'm giving away a signed copy of the winner's choice of one of the first three
Immortal Guardians books +
Immortal Guardians swag.
Immortal Guardians Book 1
"A thrilling and chilling new paranormal series. Fantastic!"
4.5 stars, RT Book Reviews
Once, Sarah Bingham's biggest challenge was making her students pay
attention in class. Now, after rescuing a wounded stranger, she's
landed in the middle of a battle between corrupt vampires and powerful
immortals who also need blood to survive. Roland Warbrook is the most
compelling man Sarah has ever laid hands on. But his desire for her is
mingled with a hunger he can barely control . . .
In his nine
centuries of immortal existence, no woman has tempted Roland as much as
Sarah. But asking her to love him is impossible -- when it mean
forfeiting the world she's always known, and the life he would do
anything to protect.
Immortal Guardians Book 2
"This blend of kick-butt action, intriguing plot twists and heartfelt passion is utterly addictive!"
4.5 stars, RT Book Reviews
Ami isn't much for trusting strangers. She has a hard time trusting
anyone. But she's no coward, and she's no pushover in the protection
department either. So when she comes across a mysterious warrior taking
on eight deranged vampires on his own, she doesn't hesitate to save his
bacon. Of course, that was before she realized what one little rescue
would get her into . . .
Marcus Grayden has been an immortal
protector of humanity for eight hundred years, and at the moment he's
not interested in backup. From the moment Ami arrives in his life, he
can't deny that she's strong, smart, and extremely skilled at watching
his back. But she's also destroying his protective solitude and
stirring desires he can't bear to awaken. After all, whatever her
secrets -- how can she defeat death itself?
Immortal Guardians Book 3
"With this excellent entry, rising star Duvall is fast proving to be a major player in paranormal romance!"
4.5 stars, RT Book Reviews
Dr. Melanie Lipton is no stranger to the supernatural. She knows
immortals better than they know themselves, right down to their stubborn
little genes. So although a handsome rogue immortal seems suspicious
to her colleagues, Sebastien Newcombe intrigues Melanie. His history is
checkered, his scars are impressive, and his ideas are daring. But
it's not his ideas that have Melanie fighting off surges of desire . . .
Bastien
is used to being the bad guy. In fact, he can't remember the last time
he had an ally he could trust. But Melanie is different - and under
her calm, professional exterior he senses a passion beyond anything in
his centuries of experience. Giving in to temptation is out of the
question - he can't put her in danger. But she isn't asking him . . .
