What I’m reading…

Here are the blurbs:

 

Deadly Desire (Riley Jenson, Guardian, Book 7)~

Seduction that kills. Pleasure to die for.
She just can’t resist . . .
 

Guardian Riley Jenson always seems to face the worst villains. And this time’s no different. For it’s no ordinary sorceress who can raise the dead to do her killing. But that’s exactly what Riley expects to find at the end of a trail of female corpses used—and discarded—in a bizarre ritual of evil. With pressure mounting to catch one fiend, another series of brutal slayings shocks the vampire world of her lover, Quinn. So the last thing Riley needs is the heat of the upcoming full moon bringing her werewolf hormones to a boil—or the reappearance of a sexy bounty hunter, the rogue wolf Kye Murphy.
 
 
Riley has threatened Murphy with arrest if he doesn’t back off the investigation, but it’s Riley who feels handcuffed by Kye’s lupine charm. Torn between her vamp and wolf natures, between her love for Quinn and her hots for Kye, Riley knows she’s courting danger and indulging the deadliest desires. For her hunt through the supernatural underworld will bring her face-to-face with what lurks in a darkness where even monsters fear to tread.

 

 

Bad Blood (Crimson Moon, Book 1)~

Sasha Trudeau knows all about working beneath the shadows, back-alley deals, and things that go bump in the night. She also knows that the world is unaware of the existence of the paranormal—and that the government would like to keep it that way.

 

As a highly trained Special Ops soldier, Sasha and her team are an elite group of individuals who are survivors of werewolf attacks, now trained to be loyal to only to each other and their government. But when she returns from a solo mission, she finds that her team has mysteriously gone missing. Shocking government conspiracies, double-dealing vampires, and a host of stunning revelations about who—and what—she really is are only just the beginning…

 

 

Have you read eitther of these series yet? The Riley series is a little hot for me, so I have to spread out reading them. I haven’t started the Crimson series yet, but I ended up with the first four books in the series because they all sounded so darn good.

 

What do you think?

    OOooo I like that Bad Blood cover. I’ve never read any of Keri Arthur books. How do you like this series?

      To tell the truth, it took me a little while to get into them. I have such a romance background, that I had a hard time getting over her multiple partners.

      Now saying that, I will let you know that I purchased all 9 books of the series. There’s just something engaging about the writing and storyline that drew me.

    Hmm not too sure I could get into the multiple partners thing. I’m like you, I’m very much into the romantic setting which multiple partners just doesn’t work with. Meh, to each their own, I guess.

      That’s my thought as well.

      The author tried to give a valid reason why this character switched partners so often. It fit the worldbuilding, but I’m just a little old fashion I guess.

      I did get invested in the characters and world, though, so I’ll keep reading.
