A Darkness Within de Jennifer Turner

ETERNAL SEDUCTION

After living on the streets of New York City for over a decade, Logan Ellis admits her perceptions might be a little skewed. But twisted or not, there’s a satisfying irony in watching a well dressed vampire stand in the middle of a ghetto alley, windblown trash scraping small circles near his feet. What she finds even more intriguing, is waiting for him to decide whether or not he’s going to kill her.

Kerestyan Nelek hasn’t quite made up his mind. As the Lord of New York, he can’t allow a homeless drug addict, whose memories are packed with knowledge of vampiric existence, to run free in his city. It’s not the first time he’s been in this situation with a human, it’s just the first time in thousands of years he’s come face to face with one who doesn’t seem to care. And that’s what makes the decision so damn difficult.What horrors would you have to witness before you went numb? How many years would it take for you to feel that way? What would it take to make you care again?Logan’s answers are simple: the worst humanity has to offer, almost thirty and something she never expected.

După ce a trăit pe strazile din New York peste un deceniu, Logan Ellis admite ca percepţiile ei ar putea fi un pic denaturate. Dar ciudate sau nu, există o ironie satisfacatoare in urmarirea unui vampir bine îmbrăcat în mijlocul unei aleei de ghetou,cu gunoiul zburat de vant invartindu-se in cercuri mici lângă picioarele lui. Ceea ce i se pare şi mai interesant e sa aştepte ca el să decidă dacă are sau nu de gând să o omoare.Kerestyan Nelek inca nu s-a decis.Ca Lord al New York-ului nu poate permite ca o dependenta de droguri fără adăpost,in ale carei amintiri sunt cunostinte despre existenta vampirilor sa umble nestingheria prin orasul lui.Nu este prima data cand a fost în aceiasi situaţie cu un om,dar e prima dată în mii de ani cand se afla fata in fata cu unul caruia nu pare sa-i pese. Şi asta e ceea ce face ca decizia sa fie al naibii de grea.La ce orori a fost martora de a devenit atat de napasatoare?Cati ani ti-ar lua sa devii astfel?De ce ar fi nevoie pentru a incepe din nou sa-ti pese?Raspunsurile lui Logan sunt simple:tot ce are mai rau umanitatea de oferit in aproape 30 de ani si ceva la care nu s-ar fi asteptat niciodata.

ETERNAL HEARTS

Toni Tutoro just wants to go home. Banned from Chicago’s vampiric society after cutting a swath of violence through the city, she must now successfully complete an investigation for the Lord of Chicago to regain the right to live in her hometown again.

To ensure Toni’s safety during her probationary period, Drake Black, a feared assassin, is secretly contracted to protect her. Even with direct orders to keep his relationship professional, and his own personal vow to never get involved with a female vampire again, Drake finds himself drawn to Toni in ways he can’t explain. But unbeknownst to him, he’s tied to one of the people who drove Toni to her night of destruction.

Drake’s heritage holds the key to Toni’s survival and success, but will she be able to forgive his connection to the brutal night that robbed her of those she loved most? Will Drake be able to forget the betrayals in his past and risk taking one more chance? But most of all, can they find a way to reach each other in the darkness?

Toni Tutoro vrea doar să mearga acasă.Expulzata de societatea vampirica din Chicago,după un sir de violenţe prin oraş,ea trebuie să incheie cu succes o anchetă pentru lordul din Chicago pentru a recâştiga dreptul de a trăi în oraşul său natal.Pentru a asigura securitatea lui Toni în timpul perioadei sale de probă, Drake Black, un asasin temut, este angajat in secret pentru a o proteja.In ciudata ordinelor directe de a pastra o relatie strict profesionala si juramantului pe care si l-a facut ca nu se va mai incurca niciodata cu o femeie vampir,Drake se simte atras de Toni in moduri pe care nu si le poate explica.Dar fără ştirea lui,el este legat de unul dintre oamenii care a pus in miscare distrugerea lui Toni din acea noapte.Moştenirea lui Drake deţine cheia pentru supravieţuirea şi succesul lui Toni, dar va fi ea in stare sa ierte legătura lui cu noaptea brutala care i-a rapit tot ce iubea mai mult?Va fi Drake capabil sa uite tradarile din trecutul lui si sa riste sa incerce inca o data?Dar mai presus de toate,pot ei găsi o modalitate de a ajunge unul la altul în întuneric?

The Fallen Angels de J.R Ward

COVET

Seven deadly sins. Seven souls to save. This is the first battle between a savior who doesn't believe and a demon with nothing to lose!
Redemption isn't a word Jim Heron knows much about-his specialty is revenge, and to him, sin is all relative. But everything changes when he becomes a fallen angel and is charged with saving the souls of seven people from the seven deadly sins. And failure is not an option.

Vin DiPietro long ago sold his soul to his business, and he's good with that-until fate intervenes in the form of a tough-talking, Harley-riding, self-professed savior. And then he meets a woman who will make him question his destiny, his sanity, and his heart-and he has to work with a fallen angel to win her over and redeem his own soul.


CRAVE

Seven deadly sins. Seven souls that must be saved. One more no holds barred battle between a fallen angel with a hardened heart and a demon with everything to lose. Isaac Rothe is a black ops soldier with a dark past and a grim future. The target of an assassin, he finds himself behind bars, his fate in the hands of his gorgeous public defender Grier Childe. His hot attraction to her can only lead to trouble and that's before Jim Heron tells him his soul is in danger. Caught up in a wicked game with the demon who shadows Jim, Isaac must decide whether the soldier in him can believe that true love is the ultimate weapon against evil.

My Love Eternal de Liz Strange

Tall, dark, and sexy, as well as fabulously wealthy, Giovanni is everything a girl could ask for in a lover. There's only one catch. He's been undead for more than three hundred years. When Rachel is drawn into Giovanni's world, she learns that the rules of human existence mean nothing in the world of vampires. This, however, is a fair price to pay for a love that will last forever.

Hunted by the Desmarais family, who carry a centuries old vendetta, Rachel and Giovanni travel to the ends of the earth in order to stay one step ahead. Can their love survive, or will their eternity together end?

Tales of an Urban Werewolf de Karen MacInerney

HOWLING AT THE MOON

Sophie Garou seems to have it all: a great job at a prestigious accounting firm, a closet that rivals a Nordstrom showroom, and a terrific boyfriend who isn’t afraid to use the “M” word. 
There’s just one little itty bitty problem: Sophie is a werewolf and her time of month has a whole new meaning.
Needless to say, life among yummy flesh and blood humans is no piece of steak er, cake, but regular doses of wolfsbane tea and a mother who runs a magic shop have helped Sophie keep her paranormal pedigree under wraps. 


Still, when a sexy, golden eyed werewolf prowls into town, Sophie finds herself struggling to keep her animal impulses in check not to mention trying to keep things on track with her super hot (and super human) lawyer boyfriend. 
What’s more, someone is threatening to expose Sophie for what she really is. And when her mother is accused of selling a poison-laced potion, Sophie must sniff out a culprit before the fur hits the fan.


ON THE PROWL

Sophie Garou is a master at taming her inner beast, which comes in handy since she’s a werewolf. With a big promotion at work and a supersexy boyfriend, Heath (whom she recently spotted leaving a jewelry store with a beguiling ring box), she’s one happy girl.


But when Heath starts spending long nights at the office with his new associate a dead ringer for Career Day Barbie,Sophie smells trouble. 
And when her professional relationship with her big new client who also happens to be Texas’s brilliantly blue eyed most eligible bachelor begins to sizzle, she wonders if her animal instincts are leading her in the wrong direction.
 Just when it seems that things can’t get any more complicated, they do. The Houston werewolf pack has sniffed Sophie out, and their message is chillingly clear: you’re either with us or against us. 
And unless she can prove that she’s with them, the next full moon may just be her last.


LEADER OF THE PACK


On the outside, Sophie Garou is living every woman’s dream: she has beauty, brains, and a big time position in Austin’s most respected accounting firm (not to mention a very sexy, very successful new boyfriend).
But there’s one Sophie would rather keep under wraps: she is a werewolf.

Sophie’s life gets a little more hairy when her long estranged father, Luc, arrives in the Live Music Capital to attend the werewolves’ annual Howl and reconnect with his daughter. But Luc’s plans fall apart after he’s accused of murder and arrested by his archrival, Wolfgang, leader of the Houston pack (and one notoriously dirty dog). Wolfgang drools at the thought of Luc’s impending execution, but Sophie won’t let her father die without a fight. Determined to prove his innocence, she and her friends set out to find the real killer. Along the way, Sophie must deal with taboo attractions, Machiavellian intrigues, sinister agendas, and hair raising betrayals.

Alpha and Omega de Patricia Briggs

CRY WOLF

Anna never knew werewolves existed until the night she survived a violent attack and became one herself. After three years at the bottom of the pack, she’d learned to keep her head down and never, ever trust dominant males. But Anna is that rarest kind of werewolf: an Omega. And one of the most powerful werewolves in the country will recognize her value as a pack member—and as his mate.











HUNTING GROUND
Mated to werewolf Charles Cornick, the son and enforcer of the leader of the North American werewolves, Anna Latham now knows how dangerous being a werewolf is, especially when a werewolf opposes Charles and his father is struck down. Charles's reputation makes him the prime suspect, and the penalty for the crime is execution. Now Anna and Charles must combine their talents to hunt down the real killer,or Charles will take the fall.

All I want for Christmas is a Vampire(Love at Stake)de Kerrelyn Sparks

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS A VAMPIRE

Toni Davis's Christmas wish list

1. Springing my best friend from the psych ward.

2. Living somewhere that doesn't have coffins in the basement. Occupied coffins.

3. Finding Mr. Right. Please make him tall, dark, handsome, and alive.

This Christmas isn't so merry for Toni. Her best friend's been locked up in a mental hospital ever since she told the police she was attacked by vampires, and the only way for Toni to get her out is to prove that bloodsuckers really do exist. So she's taken a job as a bodyguard for the Undead, but she gets more than she bargained for, especially when she meets Ian MacPhie, a Scottish rascal looking for Ms. Right.Although Ian's nearly five centuries old, he looks and acts like a twenty seven year old hunk.How can a dead man be so damn sexy? Could Mr. Wrong be Mr. Right? One forbidden kiss could lead to an eternity of passion and all it takes is one moment under the mistletoe .

THE UNDEAD NEXT DOOR

Three signs that something is very different with your new man:

1. He sleeps all day, which would be annoying except he's so attentive at night.

2. He's attacked by sword wielding assailants, yet insists he can handle it on his own.

3. He never seems to age.

Heather Westfield has always lived a quiet life, but that all changes when she helps a very handsome, very mysterious stranger. There's something not quite right about Jean Luc, but still, she's never been with a man so charming, so attractive, so wonderful. Now if only a murderous villain wasn't after them, they might get their happily ever after.

Torn from her native New York City and dumped in the land of cookie cutter preps, Candice is resigned to accept her posh, dull fate. Nothing ever happens in Swoon, Connecticut until Dice's perfect, privileged cousin Penelope nearly dies in a fall from an old tree, and her spirit intertwines with that of a ghost. His name? Sinclair Youngblood Powers. His mission? Revenge. And while Pen is oblivious to the possession, Dice is all too aware of Sin. She's intensely drawn to him but not at all crazy about the havoc he's wreaking. Determined to exorcise the demon, Dice accidentally sets Sin loose, gives him flesh, makes him formidable. Now she must destroy an even more potent and irresistible adversary, before the whole town succumbs to Sin's will. Only trouble is, she's in love with him.What do you do when the boy of your dreams is too bad to be true?

Call me Sin.

For it is I who was unjustly condemned to death in the town of Swoon, Connecticut, in the year of Our Lord 1769. It is I who swore vengeance upon the place, and I who returns to latter-day Swoon, slipping without sanction into the unsuspecting vessel of Pen’s body, possessing her, using her as an instrument of retribution. And it is I who inveigles Dice to free me from that vessel, make me flesh once more, infuse me with great vigor and determination andYes, I coerce Dice.
Yes, I defy her.
Yes, I betray her. I do. Yet above and beyond all that I love her, and if you doubt it I beseech you to read this story, this swoon, and find out for yourself if my love, her love, our love,impossible though it may be,is true.

CADAVRUL CARE RADE

Anita Blake vaneaza vampiri. I se spune Calaul. Harold Gaynor, un cap al lumii interlope, ii ofera Anitei un milion de dolari pentru a reanima un zombi de aprope trei sute de ani. 
Stiind ca pentru asa ceva va fi necesar un sacrificiu uman, Anita refuza oferta, intrand in conflict cu Gaynor care-si va trimite asasinii pe urmele ei.

Night Huntress de Jeaniene Frost

HALFWAY TO THE GRAVE

Half vampire Catherine Crawfield is going after the undead with a vengeance, hoping that one of these deadbeats is her father,the one responsible for ruining her mother’s life. Then she’s captured by Bones, a vampire bounty hunter, and is forced into an unlikely partnership.

In exchange for help finding her father, Cat agrees to train with the sexy night stalker until her battle reflexes are as sharp as his fangs. She’s amazed she doesn’t end up as his dinner,are there actually good vampires? Pretty soon Bones will have her convinced that being half-dead doesn’t have to be all bad. But before she can enjoy her status as kick-ass demon hunter, Cat and Bones are pursued by a group of killers. Now Cat will have to choose a side and Bones is turning out to be as tempting as any man with a heartbeat.

ONE FOOT IN THE GRAVE

Half vampire Cat Crawfield is now Special Agent Cat Crawfield, working for the government to rid the world of the rogue undead. She’s still using everything Bones, her sexy and dangerous ex, taught her, but when Cat is targeted for assassination, the only man who can help her is the vampire she left behind.

Being around Bones awakens all her emotions, from the adrenaline rush of slaying vamps side by side to the reckless passion that consumed them. But a price on her head,wanted: dead or half alive,means her survival depends on teaming up with Bones. And no matter how hard Cat tries to keep things professional between them, she’ll find that desire lasts forever and Bones won’t let her get away again.

AT GRAVE'S END

It should be the best time of half-vampire Cat Crawfield’s life. With her undead lover Bones at her side, she’s successfully protected mortals from the rogue undead. But though Cat’s worn disguise after disguise to keep her true identity a secret from the brazen bloodsuckers, her cover’s finally been blown, placing her in terrible danger.

As if that wasn’t enough, a woman from Bones’s past is determined to bury him once and for all. Caught in the crosshairs of a vengeful vamp, yet determined to help Bones stop a lethal magic from being unleashed, Cat’s about to learn the true meaning of bad blood. And the tricks she’s learned as a special agent won’t help her. She will need to fully embrace her vampire instincts in order to save herself and Bones,from a fate worse than the grave.

DESTINED FOR AN EARLY GRAVE

Since half vampire Cat Crawfield and her undead lover Bones met six years ago, they’ve fought against the rogue undead, battled a vengeful Master vampire, and pledged their devotion with a blood bond. Now it’s time for a vacation. But their hopes for a perfect Paris holiday are dashed when Cat awakes one night in terror. She’s having visions of a vampire named Gregor who’s more powerful than Bones and has ties to her past that even Cat herself didn’t know about.

Gregor believes Cat is his and he won’t stop until he has her. As the battle begins between the vamp who haunts her nightmares and the one who has her heart, only Cat can break Gregor’s hold over her. She’ll need all the power she can summon in order to bring down the baddest bloodsucker she’s ever faced even if getting that power will result in an early grave.

THIS SIDE OF THE GRAVE

Half vampire Cat Crawfield and her vampire husband Bones have fought for their lives, as well as for their relationship. But just when they've triumphed over the latest battle, Cat's new and unexpected abilities threaten to upset a long standing balance .

With the mysterious disappearance of vampires, rumors abound that a species war is brewing. A zealot is inciting tensions between the vampires and ghouls, and if these two powerful groups clash, innocent mortals could become collateral damage. Now Cat and Bones are forced to seek help from a dangerous ally,the ghoul queen of New Orleans herself. But the price of her assistance may prove more treacherous than even the threat of a supernatural war to say nothing of the repercussions Cat never imagined.

Black Dagger Brotherhood de J.R Ward

In seria Black Dagger Brotherhood de J.R Ward au aparut 8 volume si un ghid al seriei,The Black Dagger Brotherhood:An Insider's Guide,care contine informatii despre membrii fratiei si o noua nuvela despre Zsadist si Bella.


LOVER MINE

In the darkest corners of the night in Caldwell, New York, a conflict like no other rages. Long divided as a terrifying battleground for the vampires and their enemies, the city is home to a band of brothers born to defend their race: the warrior vampires of the Black Dagger Brotherhood.

John Matthew has come a long way since he was found living among humans, his vampire nature unknown to himself and to those around him. After he was taken in by the Brotherhood, no one could guess what his true history was- or his true identity. Indeed, the fallen Brother Darius has returned, but with a different face and a very different destiny. As a vicious personal vendetta takes John into the heart of the war, he will need to call up on both who he is now and who he once was in order to face off against evil incarnate.

Xhex, a symphath assassin, has long steeled herself against the attraction between her and John Matthew. Having already lost one lover to madness, she will not allow the male of worth to fall prey to the darkness of her twisted life. When fate intervenes, however, the two discover that love, like destiny, is inevitable between soul mates.

LOVER AVENGED
Caldwell, NY, has long been the battleground for the battleground for the vampires and their enemies, the Lessening Society. It’s also where Rehvenge has staked out his turf as a drug lord and notorious nightclub that caters to the rich and heavily armed. His shadowy reputation is exactly why he’s approached to kill Wrath, the Blind King, and leader of the Brotherhood. Rehvenge has always kept his distance from the Brotherhood, even though his sister is married to a member. Because he’s a sympath, his identity is a deadly secret- the revelation of which will result in his banishment to a colony for sociopaths. And as plots within and outside the Brotherhood take their toll against Rehvenge, he turns to the only source of light in a darkening world- Elhena, a vampire untouched by the corruption that has its hold on him- and the only thing standing between him and eternal destruction.

Membrii Black Dagger Brotherhood:

Wrath: the last purebred vampire on the planet and the vampire race's king. Essentially blind, he is the leader who is not willing to lead until he is forced to care for a half-breed he falls in love with.

Rhage: the strongest of the brothers and the best fighter. Cursed by the Scribe Virgin, he is possessed by a dark side which is a danger to everyone. Ultimately, though, he is gentled by a very special human woman.

Zsadist: the most lethal of the brothers. A former blood slave who was mercilessly tortured during the first hundred years of his life, Z is the one who has fallen farthest from grace. But he is utterly worthy of redemption.

Phury: the loyal one, the one who sacrifices himself for others. Phury is Zsadist's twin brother and a celibate who cannot truly live because of everything his biological brother has lost. Used to giving rather than receiving, he needs love coming back at him to bring him alive.

Vishous: the most intelligent and the one who is specially gifted. His curse is his ability to prognosticate: he sees the future, though not the 'when' of events so he is tortured by his inability to save those he loves from danger. His love puts him at odds with a secret about himself he did not know and could never have guessed.

Tohrment: the steady one, the calm one. He is the one whose betrayal by fate will cut the deepest.

Ecouri din trecut de Diana Gabaldon la Editura Litera

Claire Randall este călătoare în timp. Aruncată în negura vremii, cu peste două sute de ani în urmă, ea se îndrăgosteşte de rebelul James Fraser, sufletul ei pereche, şi decide să rămână împreună în vremea lui Jamie, în secolul al XVIII-lea. În urma unor evenimente care îi pun viaţa în pericol, fiica lor, Brianna, alege să trăiască în relativa siguranţă a secolului XX, la o veche fermă a strămoşilor ei din Scoţia, împreună cu Roger, soţul ei, şi cei doi copii.
Dar întâmplările petrecute cu două secole în urmă prind viaţă prin intermediul scrisorilor lui Claire. Fragilele file scot la iveală dragostea ei pentru Jamie Fraser, omul mult încercat în luptă, călătoria lor din Carolina de Nord pe mare, unde întâlnesc piraţi şi iau parte la lupte navale. Căutând să afle cât mai multe despre Claire, Brianna şi Roger descoperă şi lucruri despre ei înşişi, deoarece destinul familiei din munţii Scoţiei pendulează între viaţă şi moarte în Războiul pentru Independenţa Americii.
Ecouri din trecut este o carte despre călători în timp, despre oameni care şi-au dorit să schimbe istoria, despre caractere puternice care au luptat pentru convingerile sau pentru iubirile lor. Un roman care rămâne în mintea cititorului multă vreme după ce povestea s-a terminat.
