Whoo-damn! I love a parade! Especially a patriotic one…
             

           

 

Humans go to hospitals. Animals go to veterinarians. But where do injured, ill, and decapitated demons go? It isn’t as if every supernatural being possesses the ability to grow a new limb to replace one that’s been hacked off by a demon slayer scumbag.

Fear not, fellow vamps, werewolves, and demons, for help has arrived.

Three brothers, incubus demons by birth, human in appearance (mostly), have pulled together to make the most of the healing skills common to their species.

Welcome to Underworld General Hospital, where sexy demons are doctors, HMOs are non-existent, and the blood bank sometimes doubles as the cafeteria.

And you don’t even want to know what goes on in the supply closets…

Pleasure Unbound: Deomonica Book 1

Someone is killing demons–someone other than the Aegis demon slayers, anyway. Now Eidolon, a doctor at Underworld General as well as a demon whose instincts to mate are growing stronger, must pair up with a sexy Aegis Guardian named Tayla Mancuso to learn the truth behind the killings. But Tayla has her own agenda. Her assignment is to find a way to destroy Underworld General. When she falls for Eidolon, who has shown her erotic pleasures she’d never dreamed of, she must face the horrors of her past and choose between becoming one of the very creatures she’s hunted–or death.

Desire Unchained: Deomonica Book 2

Though some of the black market killers have been put down, the threat remains, weakened, but growing stronger. When Shade is captured along with an ex-lover who blames him for a terrible betrayal, he is forced to confront dangerous emotions that, if acted upon, could result in a fate worse than death.

Passion Unleashed: Demonica Book 3

Both a demon and a vampire, Wraith has waited a hundred years to escape his miserable existence and make the change that will allow him to seduce anyone and anything, and then impregnate it without a care in the world. He has standards, though, and no humans need apply. So when he finds himself needing to seduce a human female named Serena in order to save his life, the horrors of his past come back to haunt him. Thanks to a divine charm, Serena is immortal, but only if she remains a virgin. Can she resist the ultimate temptation, the touch of a tortured, dark-souled demon who is sex personified?

Ecstasy Unveiled: Demonica Book 4 – Coming February 2010

Lore, half brother to Eidolon, Shade, and Wraith, is the black sheep of the family. Where his brothers can use their Seminus abilities to heal, Lore’s kills. His brothers run a hospital; Lore is an assassin. But now he’s been tasked to kill someone his brothers – and a sexy angel – want to keep alive.

Nic’s Recommendation:

It’s been a while since I’ve made any book recommendations. I’ve been in a bit of a reading slump, unable to find anything that really drew me in, biding my time waiting for the next Black Dagger Brotherhood book. Then I discovered a great series, Demonica by Larissa Ione. While it did take me a little while to get into the first book, I’m glad I gave it a chance and kept reading because the second half is filled with non-stop action that hooked me on the series.

The premise is fresh and brilliant, the world Ms. Ione has created for Demonica is fascinating, the characters are vividly written, and the plot twists and turns will keep you on the edge of your seat. My only complaint is that I have to wait until February to get my hands on Lore’s story, Ecstasy Unveiled.

For more on the series check out Larissa Ione’s website, Amazon, or head to your local bookstore.

AJ and I have been waiting for Transformers 2 since seeing the first movie. We got tickets to the 12:01 am first showing in IMAX.

Ask my 14 year-old and he’ll tell you that Transformers 2 may just have replaced Iron Man as his favorite movie. While impressed with the constant whirl of transforming and clashing machinery, I was a bit overwhelmed. We had a blast and the movie was great, but there so much going on it was difficult to keep track of what was happening at any given time. Still, I recommend this movie to action lovers and Transformer fans.

Woot! There’s not much better than books on sale. I feel a book buying spree coming on. *G*

The dreaded A word is Arthritis. I’ve been having some pain in my fingers. Its a bone deep ache that disrupts my sleep and at times makes it nearly impossible to write. Over the past week, I’ve discovered the ache gets worse when it rains. I’ve been in a state of denial until I finally broke down and took an xray of the worst hand. There are definite signs of joint inflammation and early signs of arthritis. I’ll be headed to my doc to discuss treatment options and how we’re going to keep my fingers functioning so I can continue to write. I’ll keep y’all updated when I know more.

Whoo-damn! Saying anything else is unnecessary.

     

AJ and I went to see the movie today. Christian Bale was great as John Connor. And Sam Worthington as Marcus Wright…*deep sigh*…be still my heart. We both loved the movie, plan to see it again, and highly recommend it to Terminator fans and fellow action flick junkies!

Oh my! Too bad I just bought that darn truck. I knew making a big down payment was a mistake. Now I don’t have any spare $$ to bid. Dang it! I had it all planned out too. Pick a menage book and you get two hunky models with you on the book cover. Oh yeah! I might have to beg, borrow or steal some money so I can get a shot at this. LOL!

Bidding ends on May 31st so get a move on if you want to help a good cause and win yourself one heck of a hot photo!

Ah, yes. One of the big milestones has to come visit. My son will be turning 15 this fall and getting his learner’s permit. No way is he practicing in my car. Unh-uh! I’m not about to put a 15 year old with too much testosterone behind the wheel of a muscle car with 350hp. Over the past several weeks we began shopping. Our criteria was pretty simple. Less than 10 years old, less than 100K miles, automatic, no V8s, well maintained pick-up truck. Oh, and having working a/c was crucial since we live in Florida.

Last night we found what will start out as a second family vehicle and will eventually be AJ’s first car. Its a sonic blue 2002 Ford Ranger XLT with cute little drop down seats in the back. Only has 38K miles and had a clean Carfax report.

AJ’s already planning all the cool accessories he’s saving up money to buy since he’s now broke after paying 1/3 of the cost to buy the truck. He save up for 4 years from allowance, birthday and Christmas money. I also involved him in all aspects of checking out the vehicles and calculating all the costs involved such as tax, tags & title, insurance, maintenance…

My baby’s growing up.

   

I hope you all have a wonderful Mother’s Day!
