A passion that won’t be denied despite the circumstances.
Though Leigh cared deeply for Jim, it was his fiery older brother Tre who held the key to her heart. For the past ten years she’s lived with the daily pain of knowing that Tre’d turned his back on the passion that had flared hot and bright between them.
A second chance at a once in a life time love.
Tre knew from the moment that he first saw Leigh stroking his half-wild horse that her elegant, delicate appearance belied the depth and strength of her spirit. He’d dared to make Leigh his own, showing loyalty to nothing and no one beyond the laws of nature that clearly decreed that she was his. But when Leigh denied what should have been undeniable, he first knew the bitter taste of betrayal.
Now a family tragedy has forced Tre and Leigh together once again. Guilt, anger and betrayal rage between them, but so does a desire hot enough to incinerate all else in its wake.

Grief and guilt-ridden Skylar Ammadon sometimes wonders if she has the strength to go on living. Her life mate Duse has been murdered for over two years and she still finds each day an unbearable trial. She lives and functions in the physical world only, denying her supernatural gifts or any subtle realities, existing only to ensure her precious son’s health and happiness and living far, far away from the shattering memories of Dunleavy Castle.
But as much as she tries to forget, as much as she strives to deny, as much as she tries to punish herself, her immense desire for one man will not be purged from her mind or body.
Jax Ammadon’s suffering has made him stronger than any Watcher alive. For hundreds of years he’s burned alive for the one woman that fate has designated could never be his. He watches helplessly as Skylar’s denial of the truth of what they are to one another slowly kills her. Her grieving period must come to an end.
It’s time for the new king of the Watchers to claim what’s his.

Life is rough when you’re gorgeous, rich, talented and so sexy that the media won’t leave you alone.
It’s certainly the truth in Christian Lasher’s case. He returns to the neighborhood of his childhood to escape the spotlight, hungering for a change in his creative endeavors. In the midst of his soul searching he meets Megan and is captured by the tantalizing hint of her hidden fires. Megan knows nothing about his wild, rebellious youth or his career as a rock star—and Christian would prefer to keep it that way.
There was much, much more to her than the role of a fragile victim.
Megan Shreve is a sculptor with creative depths and passions that tragedy had forced into the shadows. When she looks into Christian’s eyes she sees herself for the first time as an exciting, sexy woman. She longs to discover more of herself in Christian’s arms and in his bed.
Two passionate souls destined for one another—unless the stifling roles imposed by tragedy and fame rip them apart.

Once a servant…now the master.
Kit Chevalier has a serious problem. She’s loved Max St. Clair, her sinfully handsome guardian, since she was a child of six and he a young man of nineteen. But now he stubbornly refuses to notice that she’s grown into a woman. Armed with a few shocking secrets from Max’s servant, Kit sets out to persuade him she is no longer a child.
Long ago, Max was a servant himself, indentured like all St. Clair princelings to a noble family in order to teach them humility…and how to best pleasure their masters in bed. Once indentured to Kit’s parents, he is now pledged to protect Kit—and her virtue—until he can honorably hand her off to a suitable husband.
And hand her off he will. Quickly, before he loses his weakening resolve to keep his own hands off her. The last thing he wants to do is expose the fragile beauty to the carnal appetites of his ancient line.
But Max underestimates Kit’s resolve—and the passionate fires that burn within her are every bit a match for his own.

London, 1897. A world that embraces both the logic of science and the ghostly explorations of spiritualism, a time period where one need only scratch at the surface of staunch morality to find outlets for the most carnal of sexual appetites.
Dr. Vincent Devonald, the third Baron Rashleigh has become known among occult circles for exposing the trickery behind spiritualist phenomena. He has plenty of reasons to distrust the renowned medium Serafina Grovenor, the most important being that her charismatic magician father Samael was behind the disappearance of his daughter Melissa ten years before. He doesn’t believe for a second that Serafina can communicate with spirits and he’s determined to expose her ability to create fire for the theatrical sham that it is. But he can’t deny the powerful effect that the mysterious young woman has on his mind and body as she draws him into her circle of intrigue.
Serafina lives in a world of manipulation and fear. She’ll do anything to keep her younger sister safe…including putting her total trust in the one man who had the ability to tame her potentially lethal fiery nature and show her the true meaning of passion.

When she has an irrational, intense sexual response to the mysterious stranger Jack Caldwell, Belle wonders if it’s due to delayed grief for Sean. Sean was the only man she’d ever responded to so completely, after all. When she finds herself submitting wholly to Jack’s dominant, demanding manner in bed Belle begins to live on the sharp edge of doubt and certainty…even to the point of questioning her own sanity.

Bale Ammadon’s life mate died under the cruelest of circumstances at the hands of the Watcher outlaw Asmoday. The knowledge that he’d been unable to protect Helen, though as King of the Watchers he was one of the most powerful beings on the planet, was a constant pain that Bale endured for a century.
Reborn in the way Watcher mates are after their human deaths, Helen has returned to Dunleavy Castle. But she’s not Bale’s kind, wise mate of old. She’s become contemptuous and rebellious and vexes Bale at every turn, leaving him to wonder if the circumstances of her death have polluted her new life and if her killer still has a hold on her spirit.
Now, despite her fear of him, Helen finds herself hungering for her mate’s touch. Her dreams have told her that the key to being whole again lies in Dunleavy Castle. Unfortunately, in order to get what she needs Helen will have to face both the man whose starkly handsome face has haunted her dreams and her deepest, darkest fears.

What do you get when you mix together a man who was about to make a big mistake in marriage, a woman who would do anything to convince him of it, and a bag of bachelor party sex toys? One night of steamy, phenomenal sex of course.
But what about tomorrow?
Libby Taylor couldn’t let John Wolfe get married - not without ever having kissed his lips just once, smelled the scent on his neck, seen the expression on his face when he came. She’d fallen in love with the sexy reporter through the unlikely mediums of the computer and his father’s stories. Now, on the eve of his wedding, Libby was determined to have him for just one night before he became a married man.
John was having doubts about going through with his wedding but that didn’t explain the high-voltage blast of pure lust that hit him when he walked into his bedroom and saw a red-headed woman standing there wearing nothing but a pink bow and stiletto heels. She told him that she’d been sent by his friends for one night of wild sex.
And John found that he didn’t have either the interest or the will to turn down such an inspired gift.

Asmoday is back.
This time he’s determined to wreak havoc on his hated enemies, the Ammadons, through the dangerous medium of the Astral Plane. What better way to seek revenge and regain his physical body than through the divine doorway of one of those gifted, powerful women who has the ability to become a Watcher mate? Actress Sophia Galanis is the perfect prey because she doesn’t know what she really is–or what she has the power to become.
The last thing that Che Ammadon has on his mind the night he challenges Asmoday’s corrupt spirit is finding his life mate. Every Watcher longs to find such a gifted, exceptional woman, whose essence is rarified enough to acknowledge his existence on the physical plane—a woman who could confer him with no less than a fully corporeal body with her sexual response. Asmoday wants Sophia’s power for his own and will gladly kill her to get it. But Che isn’t known as the foremost warrior among the Watchers for nothing. Now that he’s found Sophia, no force of nature—be it supernatural or merely Sophia’s stubborn nature—will keep him from completely possessing what is his.

Lady Lora Alexander thrived on adventure and got it by regularly sneaking around London by way of the subterranean tunnels of the buried Fleet River. The wild, tempestuous beauty required a measure of discipline, but no one dared give it to her until she literally ran into the infamous Blade, the dashing gentleman thief who had been regularly stealing priceless items of Egyptian art from the British aristocracy.
Sin Drake had been captivated by Lora’s portrait since he’d first used the underground tunnels of the Fleet River and raided her bedroom. His informant’s reports of Lora’s scandalous, out of control behavior increasingly irritated him. He dared her to become his sex slave, thinking not only of his own satisfaction, but also knowing from personal experience that the fiery young woman sorely needed a measure of self-control before she burned and destroyed everything in her path…most importantly herself.
But as Sin spent more and more time with Lora, he began to wonder what he wanted most—to tame her or watch her run free; to let her go or keep her by his side forever.

Duse Ammadon has been without Skylar for over four hundred years and he’ll not wait another minute. His life mate is the first to be reincarnated since the depraved Watcher, Asmoday, killed his brother’s mate, forcing her into a sexual response, which robbed her of her magic essences. Now a whole world of criminal possibilities has opened to the once innocent race of Watchers. Because Duse knows Skylar could be the next target for Asmoday’s depravity, he doesn’t have the luxury of re-introducing Skylar to Watcher ways or for a slow, patient seduction. To set the protection spell, he has to make love to her immediately. If only she could remember him from one lifetime to another.
Skylar Halifax always knew she was different. She could see auras and manipulate subtle matter to promote healing. She sensed there was something unique about Duse, something beyond his god-in-man form and phenomenal good looks. Duse can’t waste any time convincing Skylar that he is different. So different, in fact, that he’s not even human.
Will Skylar accept Duse as her life mate or will Duse have to use other means to convince her that he is her destiny?
5 Hearts from the Romance Studio
I thought it was great that women did not get interesting to the watchers until their “second change” or when they were in their thirties, which was an interesting twist. They thought women that were younger were “children”. Skylar is a strong woman who doesn’t like the fact that she’s being pushed around a bit in order to stay safe. The added twist that Duse’s brother Jax is in love with her too makes the story hard to put down. I thought the interactions between Skylar, Duse and Jax made the story come together into something that should not be missed.
