"Step forward, tesoro mio," he said softly, his voice husky and sexy as hell. "Grasp the post of the bed."
Heat rushed deep into her body and, intrigued despite herself, she stepped forward. She glanced back at him. "What are you going to do?"
The small, devilish smile combined with the heat of his eyes had her pulse soaring, her body dampening, and her legs turning to jelly. Whatever he had in mind, she wanted.
Long fingers sled her jeans down to her thighs, then returned for her panties. "Step back, cara. Lean over." 

I am really diggin' this series. It's dark, the vampires drinking blood as well as emotions from their prey. They are deadly and some are losing their last pieces of their humanity, falling in a sinister darkness that threatens to break them. I love it! And Arturo Mazza has discovered that Quinn is the sunshine he needs in his life. Great paranormal read about a hidden world of vamps, weres, traders, and other unique characters with a fresh spin.  

Now it's your turn to show me your sexy! Leave me a comment, I'd love to hear from you ~

Take me down to Vampire City...

Vampires live only for lust and pleasure in the eternal twilight of Vamp City. But the city's magic is dying. The only person who can restore it? A beautiful woman from the mortal world...one who knows nothing of the power she wields.

Quinn Lennox is searching for a missing friend when she stumbles into a dark otherworld that only she can see—and finds herself at the mercy of Arturo Mazza, a dangerously handsome vampire whose wicked kiss will save her, enslave her, bewitch her, and betray her. What Arturo can't do is forget about her—any more than Quinn can control her own feelings for him. Neither one can let desire get in the way of their mission—his to save his people, hers to save herself. But there is no escape from desire in a city built for seduction, where passion flows hot and blood-red.

Welcome to Vamp City...  

Book Review

 



Author Pamela Clare creates a paranormal world where vampires are a little more dark, a little more blood-thirsty, and a little more deadly.

In the 1800's, a powerful sorcerer created a protective barrier-a place for vampires to live-to protect them from the sun. An alternate plane hidden from humans. This 'world' is similar to Washington, D.C., yet much darker. Sunlight never shines in Vamp City. The land is somewhat barren and flowers never bloom. There are sinister creatures living here-vampires, weres, and other scary things that go bump in the night.  

The magic used to create this world start to crumble and weaken and two unsuspectings human fall inside through the beams of light from the sun. There are holes in the barrier that magic has created and the search for another powerful sorcerer has started--someone to help strengthen the invisible walls around Vampire City before the Sun can fully penetrate its barrier.

While all that sounds nice and not in any way scary--the vampires in this alternate plane have taken humans as their slaves. It's not pretty. The humans are used to feed their hungers. And they're not just hungry for blood.

I don't want to give too much away because I loved reading about this twisted world that Clare created. And the sexy vampire, Arturo, is no Edward Cullen. He's darker and makes no apologies for his vampiric nature. But at his core is a somewhat moralistic vampire who lured me with his very sensual charms.

The heroine, Quinn Lennox, has always known she was somewhat different growing up. But she cannot believe what Arturo is telling her. She is the sorcerer that can strengthen the walls around Vampire City. She has a powerful magic embedded deep within, and no clue as to how to release it.

I cannot wait for book 2 of this very fascinating new series.

    He tasted of dark liqueur and darker nights, lush and crystal clear. Without thought, she wrapped her arms around his neck, pressing her breasts to his chest, the feel eliciting a moan deep in her throat.

Firm hands slid up her ribcage and down over her hips, back and forth, making her moan with the pleasure. She loved being touched. Especially by a man with a sure, if gentle, hand. A man who knew what he was doing. His fingers slid into her butt cheeks, gripping them hard, kneading them as he pulled her against him and the hard ridge that lay between them within his pants. Her own hips began to rock of their own volition, seeking...needing... Oh yes, her vampire knew what he was doing.      

I have only read one Pamela Palmer book ( I can see all of you gasping at this, I know)...but I got this book at AAD this past week, picked it up to check it out. You know---read a few pages to see if it hooks me in!


And, yeppers, it did. Sucked in like it was a freakin' HOOVER. Very different spin in paranormal and it sounds interesting. Can't wait to read more of this series.

And Arturo? He is one sexy Vamp!

Now it's your turn to show me YOUR sexy!
