I enjoyed One Bit With A Stranger by Christine Warren and gave it a 3 star rating on Goodreads. This is the first book in The Others series and I enjoyed it so much, I also read Big Bad Wolf, the second book in the series, and Wolf at the Door. I won these books from Laura at fuonlyknew and boy oh boy are they ever sizzling…
MY 56
He stared into her eyes, his thumb smoothing the skin of her vulnerable throat while his other hand began to rub the furrow between her thighs with firm, steady pressure. She felt like a toy, positioned for his pleasure, dominated and controlled beneath his hands and his eyes and his breathtaking presence.
(Pages 56 in paperback published in 2008)
GOODREADS BLURB
When Regina’s friends insist on setting her up a “Fantasy Fix” to help her get over her cheating ex, she dreams up some kinky out-of-this-world encounters that they could never possibly bring to life. But the next thing Regina knows, her friends have got her laced into a shiny black corset, tight leather pants, and a sexy pair of stilettos. It’s time for some downtown vampire-fantasy fun. . . .
The Vampire Ball in Manhattan’s East Village isn’t really Dmitri Vidâme’s idea of a good time, but as a member of the Council that governs the Others, he has to keep an eye on all the young vamps who prey on the pretenders. After he feasts his dark eyes on fiery Regina at the bar, he knows that he must have her. But for the first time Dmitri meets a woman who is more than a match for his indomitable will. And he may be the fantasy Regina hoped for… until she—and her feisty friends—discover her sexy new lover’s bloodsucking secret…
I think I’ve read this one but am not quite sure. I know I have read a number of books by this author and almost always start at the beginning of a series. This week I’m reading “Crimson Death by Laurell K. Hamilton from my TBR mountain. Happy reading!
I won several paperbacks and this was one of them. I think I had read her before and I don’t always begin at the beginning of a series, especially one that has been around for a while. Have a great weekend, Kathy.
Oh, wow, two vampire stories today…LOL. Maybe I will grow bored of my usual fare and try one. I have enjoyed some movies about werewolves.
Thanks for sharing, and here’s mine: “SNAP JUDGMENT”
I never used to read much about vamps or weres, until I started blogging. AND my sister Laura over at fuonlyknew has been into them big time for years. Once I started I couldn’t stop.
Wow, that does sound sizzling. Glad you enjoyed them.
There’s been a couple of vampire novels in Book Beginnings today.
Yeah, not for the weak. lol
That’s right. Blame it on me. LOL Always glad to enable, Sherry:) Your excerpt almost made me blush. Wow!
Pretty hot 56!!! Wowsers!!! 🙂 Happy weekend!
