Seek (Delirious 0.5)

* Author's note: This story will unfold over the span of multiple Volumes. Not all secrets will be spilled yet in this prequel. Don't let this stop you from reading, though, because this series will be one heck of a ride. So open your mind and let me take you on a journey of delirious passion, unbendable trust, frightening illusions, dangerous secrets, shocking revelations, and disturbingly dark mind games. *

When illusions come to life, how do you tell what’s real?

My life ended when I came back from vacation. Death was at my doorstep. Everything ceased to exist. To protect myself, I pushed the memories away.
All I remember is him: Sebastian Brand, my savior.
I trust only him.
I am obsessed with him.
But all I know about him is his name.
Stuck in this mental institution, I try not to think about the terrible memories that lurk deep inside me. Sebastian is the only one who can help me forget. I don’t care that they say he doesn't exist, I need Sebastian and I will find him, no matter the cost.

This is a prequel to the Delirious Series. These books should be read in order.

~*~obsessed by books copy given in exchange for an honest review~*~

Where to begin....locked up, trapped, with no memories but of blood and fear. Lillith is in an institution with no explanation of how. Lilliths best friend is also there and she struggles to understand her anger and hatred towards her. She is lost ...confused het only lifeline a man named Sebastian Brand. He comes to her in the darkness, seduces her fears into passion and ignites hope in her soul. Is he real or a figment of her battered psyche?

Wonderfully written you are sucked into the rabbit hole where up is down and the night is day. Where this novella will lead you is certainly dark and definitely has demons lurking! Without spoilers all I can say is read this if you enjoy a mind f**k, that leaves you aching for more.

Title: SNARE (Delirious, #1)

Author: Clarissa Wild

Release Date: November 25, 2014

Genre: Dark Romance

Blurb

His secrets will destroy her. Taken. Humiliated. Used. With his smart mouth, dirty talking, and possessive behavior, Sebastian Brand has me hooked in the most shameless way. I’m obsessed with him. However, now that I’ve escaped the mental hospital, he seeks to control my every move. The overwhelming aloofness in his attitude and the darkness in his mind tells me there is more to this man than sheer dominance. Depravity is his playground and pain is a necessary evil. Keeping me away was his first instinct. Capturing me was his second. Claimed by a man with the exterior of an angel and the mind of a brute, I will do anything to unveil his secrets and face my own demons. A body in exchange for freedom. A heart in exchange for truth. Life is never a given. Only a certain death. This is Volume 1 in the Delirious Series, which contains 3 volumes and a prequel. This book is a full-length novel. These books should be read in order. WARNING: This book contains very disturbing situations, strong language, drugs and alcohol, dubious consent, and graphic violence. Contains a cliffhanger that will make your eyes pop.

~*~obsessed by books copy given in exchange for an honest review~*~

"know how this journey ends for the both of us. In shambles, chasing memories and impossible dreams. Destruction. And I will be the catalyst of it all."

Sebastian is a bad bad man. He tries to push Lillith away, he warns her but to no avail so he decides to keep her! At the end of Seek Lillith had escaped the institute and has tracked down her lifeline. This continues where that book ends and we continue the hauntingly captivating dark romance that unfolds.

Sebastian needs to be in control, he needs to dominate. Lillith is his perfect companion as she wants to be broken, to submit. In herind he is her only saviour in a world that has seemingly gone mad. Written in a dual POV we witness her own self loathing as his debased sexual desires equally turn her on and shame her. We travel the corridors of her fractured mind and slowly with the twisted therapy of Sebastian learn what she has locked away within herself. The truth ...ahhhhh my mind is reeling.

No plot summary required just suffice to say...read this now or you will be punished ;) The sex scenes are panty melting hot, not that Sebastian would allow you to wear any. The plot takes a fast paced corkscrew ride into crazy town as everything you think you know is stripped back and revealed. Honestly this is one of the best dark reads so far, it's relentless and doesn't stop playing with your mind. Lillith falls hard and gives her love to him unconditionally. Sebastian in his own way surrenders his soul to her. Is it enough? Can't wait for the next one..

This Venom Shade (Dark Stirrings, Book 2)

by Alex Demasi , London Beck

Thrall, an erotic paranormal novella by Alex Demasi from the second book in the Dark Stirrings series.

Elise doesn’t know when the web closed around her, but every time she struggles, it just twists tighter. Already on the run from a deadly secret, how will the strands around her warp and snare with the arrival of Brendan and Glenn, unaware of the terrible truth they’ve stumbled upon? Can she escape the venomous grasp of her mistress, or will they all become flies in the web of her insatiable hunger, her relentless passion?

The Girls Next Door, an erotic paranormal novella by London Beck from the second book in the Dark Stirrings series.

His degree not yet complete, Andrew rents a cheap room in an old villa where he plans to work on his thesis over the summer. The room is small and grotty, but it does have one advantage: a window on the house next door, providing Andrew an intimate peek into the comings and goings of the women who live there. But things are not what they seem and soon Andrew finds his world is entangled with theirs, his life spiralling dangerously out of control...

Review by Emma Mistress of all Dark & Twisted

5 of 5 stars

London Beck and Alex Demasi reunite again for Dark Stirrings #2 'This Venom Shade' in their paranormal erotic series. I adored This Dark Shade and book two does not fail to live up to and exceeds book one with chills, thrills and kills.

The first tale is Thrall by Alex Demasi and sees a tangled web of lies and deceit play out in this darkly, disturbing but captivating tale. The thrillingly erotic pages kept teasing me to read on whilst the hairs on the back of my neck said beware!!!

The tale follows Brendan Kingsley, a young wayward freeloader who wants nothing more from life than sex, drugs and rock and roll. His older brother Glenn has had enough of his ways and decides to dish out his own form of rehab at a boat club, well away from all of life's temptations. But, other forces are at work and the unsuspecting brothers are about to meet one very hypnotic, powerful and deceptive lady called Ursula and discover how far people have to go for those they love to stay safe, even when facing a threat that defies the realms of reality.

Book two by London Beck is The Girls Next Door. This is a cautionary tale about being careful what you wish for. Andrew Metcalfe is a college student whose down on his luck. He failed his exams due to having his grant declined, works to pay debts so can't join in socially at college and has the worst housemates ever... He is curious, bordering on Peeping Tom towards his beautiful dark haired neighbour and his curiosity lures him to discover more about them. Their his one enjoyment in his depressingly lonely life.

This novella is loosely based on the classic Cinderella tale with two beautiful sisters being cared for, protected and tended to by a dark haired beauty. Rest assured, Selene, Andrew's fixation, needs no prince charming to save her.

This novella is full of shocks, twists and turns and many scenes to scare you as their chillingly realistic. Believe me just when you think you know what's going on it turns out your wrong!! I devoured this book in one siting and now need my next Dark Stirrings fix soon!!

About

Alex Demasi and London Beck are writers of dark erotica, with a particular passion for the dark, the twisted, the suspenseful.

COVER REVEAL: BEHIND YOUR BACK by Chelsea M. Cameron @chel_c_cam #BEHINDYOURBACK.

Today is the cover reveal for Chelsea M. Cameron's upcoming title, BEHIND YOUR BACK. This book will be released in February 2015 but be sure to check out the author's note below for some special news about the release!

BLURB COMING SOON!

Add the book to GOODREADS.

AUTHOR'S NOTE: This past summer I traveled to Edinburgh, Scotland for a book signing. It was my first trip outside of the US and I was nervous as hell. While I was on the plane and begging for my motion sickness medication to kick in, I started thinking about a character I didn’t “know” yet. Every now and then I will get a character’s voice in my head and not have a story for them. More often than not, my books start with just one character. I don’t know where the story is going, or what they’re going to do. I only have their voice guiding me. I told myself I wasn’t going to work on anything new on my trip, since I already had existing deadlines. But of course the voice ignored me. He kept talking to me. I couldn’t resist, so I started working on his story in my gorgeous hotel room with its view of Edinburgh castle. I wrote some more words at the Elephant House, which is where J. K. Rowling started writing the first Harry Potter book. Over vegetable lasagna and jasmine tea, a story started to develop. It was different than anything I’d ever written. Told completely from a male point of view. It was also a romantic suspense, something I’d been dying to try writing, but didn’t think I had the ability to do. I called my mother in my excitement and her words were “that’s completely different than anything you’ve ever written.” This is that story. And since this story is so completely different, I’m doing something different when I release it. In February (date to be determined), you will not only get the first book on that day, Behind Your Back, you will also be able to buy the sequel, Back To Back! No weeks or months of waiting to find out what happens. You can read the two books in one day if you want. Instant gratification. I hope you fall in love with these books as much as I have while writing them.

TEASER: She wears a wig and colored contacts the first time I see her in person. Her electric green eyes are too memorable, even in a crowd. But underneath the plain brown wig and the brown contacts and the bored expression she wears, something shines through that she can’t cover up. I recognize it right away, even if I wouldn’t have been searching for her. Raising myself from my chair, I cross the coffee shop. She watches her phone, pretending to be the kind of girl who can’t abandon her Facebook page for longer than three seconds. But I know. I know her. Her finger hovers over the screen of the phone, her shoulders slump, but her foot jiggles just a little bit. Not enough for anyone but me to notice. But I see it. I see her. I pass by her table on my way out the door. I give her one glance. A visual brush over her body. I know she sees me, but pretends not to. She pushes the wig back and I can just barely see the flash of red hair at the nape of her neck, along with a tattoo. I can’t see all of it, but I don’t need to. I know that, too. A Celtic knot. I pass through the door and don’t look back. Her eyes follow me down the street to the crosswalk and until I’m out of view. She sees me.

The Blog Tour for A VERY GREY CHRISTMAS by T.A. Foster @tafosterwriter

A VERY GREY CHRISTMAS by T.A. Foster

Kissing Eden, book #3

November 2014

Goodreads link: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/23436581-a-very-grey-christmas

BOOK SUMMARY:

I was getting ready to spend the single most important holiday of the year alone. Completely and utterly alone.

That meant he wouldn’t be there Christmas Eve. No making Christmas cookies, or listening to my dad sing off-key while my mom bustled around wrapping last-minute gifts. No decorating the tree. No midnight Christmas kiss.

No waking up in Grey’s arms. We were actually going to spend our very first Christmas in different states.

That was until Grey gave me the most unexpected gift of my life.

Review by Mazzy Boss Lady

4 of 5 stars

Read in November, 2014

I received an arc in exchange for an honest review

This is a book for the romantics, that is set in the holiday season.

A good addition to the series and an easy read.

Well written and easily followed, the character likable.

A slushy romance, that will keep you warm and fuzzy.
