On Hiatus

Hi, all! Just a quick note to say that Book of Secrets is going on hiatus for a while. I'll try to get some blog hopping in when I can.  Happy Reading. :-)

Fitness Friday {Week of 2/3 - 2/9}

A weekly progress report on my

attempt at becoming fitter and healthier in 2012!

 

There will not be a Fitness Friday report today.  I was sick with a cold all week, so not a lot of fitness was going on. :-(  However, I did get a fantastic core workout from all of the sneezing and coughing. :-)

 

Waiting On Wednesday: SAVAGE BOND by Anne Marsh

The Fallen, Book Three (eNovella)

Release Date: 5/1/2012

Book Blurb:

As a former Dominion warrior and Fallen angel, Vkhin knows how to fight. How to track his prey. And when to deal out death with brutal efficiency. Redemption isn’t part of his plans—until he finds himself chasing Fallyn Lee through a wasteland. Now, he’s hunting for the woman who could restore both his lost wings—and his soul.

Ria Morgan was just doing her job, shooting recon photos of a secret Fallen prison. When her chopper goes down, however, she figures her days are numbered. Until the dark angel hunting her offers her a temptingly seductive deal: bond with him and he’ll keep her safe. Safety’s tempting—but Vkhin is even more so. Now, Rhea must choose between long-held loyalties and the wickedly sensual pleasure of Vkhin’s touch.

Secrets of an
Accidental Duchess

By Jennifer Haymore

With her pale hair and slim figure, Olivia Donovan looks as fragile as fine china, and has been treated as such by her sisters ever since a childhood bout with malaria. But beneath her delicate facade, Olivia guards a bold, independent spirit and the kind of passionate desires proper young ladies must never confess...

It was a reckless wager, and one Max couldn't resist: seduce the alluring Olivia or forfeit part of his fortune. Yet the wild, soon-to-be Duke never imagined he'd fall in love with this innocent beauty. Nor could he have guessed that a dangerously unpredictable rival would set out to destroy them both. Now, Max must beat a madman at his own twisted game-or forever lose the only woman to have ever won his heart.

Waiting On Wednesday: MOONGLOW by Kristen Callihan

Forever; Aug 2012

Once the seeds of desire are sown . . .

Finally free of her suffocating marriage, widow Daisy Ellis Craigmore is ready to embrace the pleasures of life that have long been denied her. Yet her new-found freedom is short lived. A string of unexplained murders has brought danger to Daisy's door, forcing her to turn to the most unlikely of saviors . . .

Their growing passion knows no bounds . . .

Ian Ranulf, the Marquis of Northrup, has spent lifetimes hiding his primal nature from London society. But now a vicious killer threatens to expose his secrets. Ian must step out of the shadows and protect the beautiful, fearless Daisy, who awakens in him desires he thought long dead. As their quest to unmask the villain draws them closer together, Daisy has no choice but to reveal her own startling secret, and Ian must face the undeniable truth: Losing his heart to Daisy may be the only way to save his soul.

oOoOoOo

The story of the unusual Ellis Sisters will continue...

I'm almost finished with book one in this series, FIRELIGHT.  It's really good!  I'm excited to see that Daisy's story will be next.  She's an feisty handful. ;-)
