There''s Nothing Uglier Than A Vampire Singing "Feelings" If I hadn''t seen it for myself, I''d swear it couldn''t be true: my brother, Christian, living in a trailer park and working at a karaoke bar. We''re talking about the snob who''d probably sniff the plasma packets and send ''em back in a huff if the blood type wasn''t the right vintage. But after centuries of living in the undead fastlane, he''s made up his mind that this is exactly where he needs to spend the rest of eternity, atoning for his many, many, sins. But sometimes things just don''t work out like you think they will. Sometimes your hell can turn into your heaven. And thanks to Christian''s chatty neighbor and boss, Jolee, things seem to be getting a whole lot nicer in Shady Fork Mobile Estates. Not that either of them has the first idea how to have a normal relationship--we are talking about a woman''s who''s only dated dead-beats, and a guy who''s only dated the dead. Well, nobody''s perfect.

Destiny May Not Be Set In Stone,But At Least He''s As Hard As A RockErika Todd moved to New Orleans because she needed a change--and, well, yes, because that''s what the fortune teller said she would do. Not that she''d admit that to many people. But so many of the psychic''s predictions--about her work, even finding that stray black cat--have already come true. Now all the lonely sculptor needs is to meet and fall in love with the prophesized dark-eyed prince. . . Reclusive musician Vittorio Ridgewood has a new neighbor he''s been trying to avoid. Sure, she''s gorgeous, but she''s coming on strong, and the last thing the 200-year-old vampire needs is to get involved with another mortal. Especially since several of his former human paramours have lately been turning up dead. . .Sensing the relentless beauty needs someone to watch over her, Vittorio agrees to sit for a sculpture, and their attraction to one another quickly ignites. But is passion even this hot worth dying for?

A Demon. . .Not Just In BedPractical Josephine "Jo" Burke has no patience for the paranormal--even if she''s been having some strange visions lately. But if she is losing her mind, at least it would explain her new attraction to her co-worker, the least suitable man she could ever fall for. . .Maksim Kostova has no idea why he''s so drawn to feisty mortal Jo, but he does know how she feels about the supernatural. Forget about her accepting him for what he really is, she''d never even believe him in the first place. Or would she? When Jo confesses to him that she''s been seeing visions of a dead girl, it seems anything''s possible. . .

Bite MeOne thing you have to know about my brother Sebastian: he loves being a vampire. He''s eternally twenty-five. He''s single, and frankly, he''s a chick magnet. Yeah, undeath is good. The only thing he''s serious about is his nightclub, Carfax Abbey. It''s the sort of dark, happening spot where vampires can really let their fangs down. My brother Rhys and I have tried to get Sebastian to clean up his bad-boy ways like we did, but then he went and called us "fang-whipped." Okay, Bite Boy, chew on this. . . The ultimate righteous reformer, Wilhemina Weiss, is on a mission to shut down Carfax Abbey. It seems the spirited, sexy-without-knowing-it vampire is working undercover as a cocktail waitress while waging a secret war to bring him down. Sebastian''s A-positive he can convince Miss Goody-Vampire-Two-Fangs that nothing beats the ecstasy of a good vampire bite. I gotta tell you, the suspense would kill me--if I weren''t already undead. . . "A unique blend of heat, humor and heart!"--Erin McCarthy

Oh, Brother! I''m watching my brother swagger through our New York City apartment. . .smiling. Rhys, the detached, surly man who turned brooding into an art form. But he''s not brooding now. No, he''s practically threatening to pistol whip me for shaking hands with the beautiful, half-dressed creature named Jane who just tried to sneak out of his bedroom. Weird. Brother Grim has a sex drive?That''s not all that has me freaked out. Something terrible happened last night, something that made Rhys break his own rule and save the life of a mortal. Trouble is he doesn''t remember anything from the past two hundred years. Like that he''s a vampire, not a Regency viscount with an English accent.All I know is this mortal woman has managed to touch my brother''s frozen heart, and I, Sebastian Young, will do whatever it takes to help him keep her. . .

She''s No AngelA bodyguard? Why in the world would a demon need a bodyguard? Yes, it''s true Ellina Kostova is only half demon. . .and an author with a cult following, but that just means strange stuff happens. She isn''t in real danger. Heck, she''s in more danger from Jude Anthony, the guy her brother has hired to protect her. In big danger, actually. Because she just cannot be attracted to. . .well, anyone. She''s too much of a demon in bed. No, really.Jude has grown accustomed to being an outcast, adrift in both the mortal and preternatural worlds. Being a paid fighting machine isn''t glamorous, but he does it--and many other things--spectacularly well. And man does Ellina Kostova need a lot of protection. But he needs protection, too. She''s making him remember what it feels like to be human. And he''s already learned no good can come of that. Especially when he''s been hired not only to protect her--but also kill her. . ."Fangs for the Memories will make you laugh until milk comes out of your nose. No, really."--MaryJanice Davidson

Hot? Hell, Yeah.If you ask Killian O''Brien, Hell gets a bad rap. True, he''s a demon, so he''s bound to be a little biased. But he''s got great job security, all the women he can handle, a body to die for--literally--and free reign to do as he likes. Or he did, until teenager Daisy Reed and her two friends got hold of a book of spells and summoned him to do their bidding. Their demand: find Daisy''s older sister, Poppy, a boyfriend. Can''t be that difficult, right? It''s not like the woman is unattractive. Truth be told, Poppy is irresistible--and mind-blowingly sexy. Which is exactly why finishing this simple little assignment so he can be sent back where he came from is turning out to be the hardest thing Killian''s ever done. . .Praise for the novels of Kathy Love". . .a compelling concoction of dread, desire, and delight."--Erin McCarthy on What a Demon Wants"Fangs for the Memories will make you laugh until milk comes out of your nose. No, really."--MaryJanice Davidson

The sexy Young brothers may know a fang or two about the art of seduction, but their sister, Elizabeth, is positively mooning over a few issues of her own. . .Bad Moon RisingElizabeth Young''s brothers think they have it rough as vampires? Ha! Two words for them: unwanted hair. What werewolf Elizabeth craves is a normal life with a husband, kids, and less shaving. Unfortunately the vaccine she''s researched isn''t working yet. Worse, she''s in heat--and soon every dangerous wolf pack for miles around will be at her door. To buy time, she needs to have sex, and often, with the first human male she can find. . .Veterinarian Jensen Adler just meant to drown his sorrows, until a stunning, leather-clad brunette made him an offer he couldn''t refuse. Now he''s caught up in something really weird, definitely dangerous, and, okay, extremely hot. So his new girlfriend''s hiding something (and she''s a little freaky about the moon), but Jensen knows true love when he feels it, and this time, he''s not giving up. . .no matter how hairy things get.

Is That A Treble Clef In Your Pocket-- Or Are You Just Glad To See Me? Maggie Gallagher spends her nights with lots of men. Of course, they''re all dead composers, but why nitpick? Her love life is just like the musical compositions she researches--undiscovered. It''s time for Maggie to let loose and go wild. In a dive bar on Bourbon Street, Maggie makes a real find in the house band''s keyboard player. He''s hot. Sexy. Flirtatious. Soulful. And she could swear he''s playing an unknown piece she''s been researching, which is impossible, unless he''s dead. . . Centuries before he was a badass vampire with a rock-star wardrobe and Big Easy charm, Ren was Renauldo D''Antoni, a composer on the verge of great success until he was betrayed. No one could ever know that, but tonight, the shy strawberry blonde with the big eyes and obviously borrowed outfit actually seemed to recognize his long-lost composition. Now, she wants to know about the composition, and Ren wants to know her. . .intimately. But what starts as attraction--and distraction--just might lead to the biggest discovery of their lives. . .

In this delightful, heartwarming novel, Kathy Love introduces the Stepp sisters, three women whose lives are about to take a turn for the wild, the unpredictable, and the absolutely enchanting. . . Meet Abby.Note To Self:Remind me to have my head examined. What exactly possessed me to come home to Millbrook, Maine, where nothing changes but the weather? Oh, right. A six-month grant to do genetics research at Rand laboratories. What can I say--I''m a smart girl. And smart girls get what they need and get out again. Smart girls don''t dream, they settle. And smart girls do not get completely tongue-tied while holding a basket of fried clams when they bump into the most gorgeous man they haven''t seen in fifteen years: Chase Jordan.Remind me to have my hormones removed. Chase Jordan. Town bad boy. Rebel with a cause to show up in my dreams unannounced. Oh boy, this is not good. Not smart. It''s like high school all over again. But in a good way. A heart-thumping way. An I-have-no-idea-what''s-going-to-happen way. A way that''s making me feel like maybe settling for what I have isn''t so smart. . .but really going after what I want is the craziest thing I may ever do. . .

In her delightful novel, Getting What You Want, Kathy Love introduced the Stepp sisters, three unique women with wildly different ideas about love and life. Now, meet Ellie, the romantic middle sister who''s about to take a chance on having what she''s always wanted. . .This Can''t Be HappeningIs he flirting with me? I must be imagining things. Why would Mason Sweet, the gorgeous mayor of Millbrook, Maine, the man I''ve secretly been in love with since seventh grade, flirt with me? He''s the town golden boy, and I''m, well, the local librarian. The Stepp sister who stayed close to home. The one who bakes brownies. . .then eats them all. My thighs make that whick-whick-whick sound in pantyhose. He can''t possibly be flirting with me. So why is he giving me that melt-you-where-you-stand look? Why is he pulling me close? And what is he whispering in my ear. . .Sorry, could you repeat that? Now I''m hearing things, because I swear Mason just asked me if I''d like to. . .well, he wasn''t asking for a book recommendation, let''s put it that way. Oh my, my, my. Okay, Ellie, stop blushing like a teenaged girl. I''m sure he didn''t mean it. Maybe I should just alphabetize something. Be the good girl everyone expects. Eat another brownie. Forget this ever happened. So why is it I can''t stop myself from saying, "Yes. . .."

Wanting What You Get. Now, meet baby sister Marty, a savvy city girl with a score to settle who''s about to get more than she bargained for. . .Fate, You Are On My Bad SideYou have got to be kidding me! On a night like this, when most sane people are home to escape a blinding snowstorm, I happen to run into Millbrook''s biggest jerk, Nathaniel Peck, the boy who broke my heart at my junior prom. The one who kissed me on a dare and let his buddies laugh at me. Well, eat dirt, Nathaniel Peck, because you might have noticed me on the covers of a few magazines under the heading: Supermodel. I live in New York City now. I will be leaving as soon as the weather clears. And frankly, if it were a choice between kissing you or braving downed electrical wires, I''d have to think about it. It''s official: I''ve regressed. It''s just that I can''t stand the Cult of Nathaniel Peck that has come over this town. Okay, so he is Chief of Police. So he did make sure I got home safely. So he didn''t try anything funny with me. So that old smirk has been replaced by a sexy, sad smile. . . No. People just do not change that much. Somewhere inside Nate is the same leering, conniving womanizer I remember. And I intend to prove it. . .
