More Great November Releases with Tonya

I had such a high response to my first blog post. There are so many paranormal releases out there, I’ve had several readers and authors email me asking for more. So I am going to share a few more releases to look forward too.

Although this first book is more Sci-Fi it does have some paranormal elements and it sounds like a great read.

THE FIREBORN CHRONICLES: BOOK II BY Mary Andrews

Buy this book here

PSIONIC SCI FI: the inevitable fusion of man, machine

and the paranormal.

THEY’RE BACK

Once again the Dark Ops crew of the Nemesis is called into action.

But this time it’s personal.

When a former team member is kidnapped on a Hive drug mining planet

both the Universal Government and the new Corporate Overlord have to respond.

For the first time the Nemesis team and the Corporate Archangels join forces

against a psychic vampire, his strange twin brother,

and the Oracle menace threatening their universe.

But is anything truly what it seems?THE FIREBORN CHRONICLES: BOOK II

A Taste of Terror by Chastity Bush

Buy book here

When Cole Douglas is sent in search of a rogue werewolf, he expects the mission to go without a hitch, as so many before had.

But when sexy nurse/newly turned werewolf Chloe Dunn attacks him, his new mission take a surprising turn, as he learns that not only is she beautiful, she’s his mate.

As a Guardian, it’s Cole Douglas’s job to protect all living beings mortal, and immortal alike.

Refusing to acknowledge he’s found his mate, Cole continues on with his intended mission, only to find the beautiful creature that attacked him is not only his mate, but his ticket to finding the rogue werewolf he’s been assigned to kill.

Despite the danger lurking all around them, Cole finds himself drawn to Chloe unlike any woman before. From her golden brown hair, to her amber gold eyes, Cole realizes that just because he doesn’t think he’s ready for a mate, doesn’t matter when just a look from her can set his blood on fire.

Chloe Dunn is just learning to live life as a werewolf when the scent of a stranger sends her into a frenzy and leads her to attack him. Cole is dangerous and wild, something she needs no part of, but the overwhelming pull he has on her is more than she can bear. The more time she spends with him, the more she wants him, needs him and will do whatever it takes to have him, even if it means placing herself in the hands of the very rouge that turned her.

I am really looking forward to these two releases. Both of these authors are new to me. This will be the first time I read anything from either of them. I’m sure they won’t let me down. Please be sure to check them out as well.

As always, thanks for stopping by and reading my blog post. If you are an author and would like to feature your book, please send the cover, a short excerpt and/or blurb and any links you wish to add and the release date to tonyacallihan@hotmail.com

If you are a reader and have any suggestions please email me: tonyacallihan@hotmail.com

Everyone please have a safe and fun Thanksgiving (if you celebrate)

Worse, she finds him terribly attractive, but he’s half vampire. They don’t suit. A good reason to stop fantasizing about him.

Connection by Cora Zane

Gage is a cyber vamp, an AI being who feeds off energy, sexual and otherwise. Kiri loves that they can feel each other’s pleasure during sex…during those electric moments when Gage slips his fangs into her neck ports.

Kiri knew from the start Gage wanted a no-strings

relationship, but hadn’t realized his bite would grant him access to her heart. Hadn’t counted on being so lost to pleasure she lets loose her innermost desire. Now Gage knows her secret, and Kiri can’t bring herself to face him.

But Gage has a secret too. He’s found more than sexual satisfaction with Kiri. He’s discovered the ultimate connection—and he’ll prove it the second he’s back in her bed.

Harlequin Nocturne

Shadow of the Sheikh by Nina Bruhns

All are terrified of the ruthless legend of al Shahin—the Black Hawk. Sheikh Shahin Aswadi doesn't mind. It makes his job easier. He is one of the immortal shape-shifters who serve the ancient Egyptian god Set-Sutekh, and no human has dared approach his hidden oasis encampment for nearly a century.

That is, until intrepid anthropologist Gemma Haliday comes sniffing around after her missing sister. She has foolishly disregarded the dire warnings of the nomads in order to question the one man who may know of her sister's fate. To Shahin's gratification, she walks straight into the trap he has carefully laid for her.

Just one taste of Gemma's lips and he knows he must possess her fully…but he wants her willing. He wants her to burn for him as he burns for her—with a desire as hot and vast as the timeless Egyptian desert.
