Excerpt: How to knock aliens unconscious

Louisa isn't having the best of days, abducted by aliens while on a field trip with her delinquent orphan girls kind of sucks, but not without resources she discovers the small green aliens aren't as tough as they look, so the girls arm themselves for a takeover.

Brax and Xarn have been best friends since they were born and brothers in swords since they could hold them up. There is nothing these two mercenaries won't share, except when they take a job and find Louisa, then all bets are off and it's every alien for themselves as they set to seduce Louisa and make her choose which one she wants to take to bed.

But she's denying both men, scared she'll break their friendship, and also they are purple aliens! But what's an earth girl to do when she's tag teamed by two hunky alien men who suddenly seem to think three isn't a crowd after all...

"Watch out universe, because if you thought the purple warriors, Brax and Xarn, were a menace to the galaxy before, then hang on tight, because hopelessly in love, they’re more deadly - and hilarious - than ever."

More! I absolutely have to have more! This series is undeniably addictive - it's witty, funny, sexy, entertaining, well written and hot! That's enough adjectives? Not nearly, but I'll refrain myself. Dual Abduction continues where Accidental Abduction and Intentional Abduction left off - Brax and Xarn the joking duo of extremely hot and dangerous purple alien hunks are about to meet their mate and her herd of delinquent teenage girls freshly abducted from earth and itching to get back. Of course that being a big no-no, they instead settle in the warriors' ship and wreak havoc on the furniture and on their minds and this is a delicious cue for frustration, embarrassment and earthly dating tips to get Louisa to come over to the Team Alien.

Dual Abduction made me laugh out loud, cringe at embarrassment and blush at the sexual endeavors. Who knew aliens had voyeuristic sides? Langlais knows how to write hot sex, and not just that, but built to it with sexual tension hot enough to fuel few spaces crafts! Dual Abduction being twice as hot with the bad boy hunks setting after our heroine's heart, teasing her, tempting her and showing her pleasure despite her virtuous attempts to steer clear of the best friends. That, girls, makes for a sizzling hot delicious read!

I have come to love science fiction romance, when I was younger I read lots of Star Wars novels, and now that I'm all into Romance, these two are so married! Dual Abduction is mainly about the romance, but I loved all the science fiction, the umm... well, molesting showers, space crafts, alien planets and vegetation, the non-humanoid aliens, the odd customs, the odd gestures and the weird cultures! I loved how eccentric and unabashed Brax and Xarn were and how they contracted with the slightly reserved and religious Louisa, who had a tough streak a mile wide, due to her teacher job.

I won't go on and on about how great this novel is ( though I want to squee and gush! ) but I will demand you buy the series! ;) If you have any interest in sci-fi romance then you must pick out these three books Accidental Abduction, Intentional Abduction and Dual Abduction because - trust me on this - you want to read them back to back and you will be annoyed if you can't start the next one right away. Ten dollars so well spent! ;)

Want my reviews on all these bad boys? Here they are - all 5 STAR mind you. ;) Accidental Abduction, Intentional Abduction and Dual Abduction!

Also, there is a fourth book in the works! Which just gets me giddy, waiting for the next Alien Abduction installment to come out in late 2012/early 2013!

REVIEW - INTENTIONAL ABDUCTION

"Waking up tied to a bed by a gorgeous redhead surely isn’t bad, but her wanting him to impregnate her strikes a wrong cord and he swears revenge on the fetchingly innocent warrior woman. Jaro’s stint in one relationship ended bitterly with betrayal and whoring around and hence he’s sworn off all women except for fun but Aylia drives him mad both emotionally and physically."

Excerpt: First Kiss

It has become time for Aylia to go hunt and kidnap a male to breed her first duaghter, who will become a warrior like herself – but as she’s adopted to the Zonian society she had to go find a humanoid male to chace, incapacitate, seduce and breed with. For a sheltered warrior like Aylia it’s a wonder how brave the men off the Zonian planet are, but she’s picked her male, the bravest and strongest she’d been able to find – Jaro.

Waking up tied to a bed by a gorgeous redhead surely isn’t bad, but her wanting him to impregnate her strikes a wrong cord and he swears revenge on the fetchingly innocent warrior woman. Jaro’s stint in one relationship ended bitterly with betrayal and whoring around and hence he’s sworn off all women except for fun, and even then only once per woman – but Aylia drives him mad both emotionally and physically. Threatening to sell her to a nearest pleasure planet after turning the tables on her, he gets one wild cat who can’t help but melt into a kitten in bed. But as it turns out, he can’t stand the idea of any other men touching her so how is he supposed to sell her?

This book was just as amazing as the first book in the series, if not even more so! Langlais’ writing is witty, funny and downright dirty at times! Her characters are fantastically out there, men the epitomes of alpha and the women strong, opinionated and talkative – Jaro and Aylia sure were a match made in heaven, their bickering, and verbal bitch slaps were so entertaining that I literally couldn’t set the book down until I was done!

The plot I loved, an Amazon type female character setting out to get la... umm, a man to impregnate her then casting him off to raise the baby to become a warrior on her planet. But her adopted status, her being a human and not Zonian guarantees things will not be going according to plan, and her falling for Jaro was so entertaining to read, and at times heartbreaking.

I love reading Eve Langlais' books, she knows how to write funny! It's thoroughly entertaining few hours spent in a totally alien world where moral laws don't ably and men are hunky and purple and woman aren't afraid to get physical, meaning few bunches and jabs, get your mind off the gutter...

Now to the gutter! The sexual tension in Intentional Abduction is delicious! All the "I shouldn't, I need to, I want to, I can't..." and then the give in, priceless! Langlais has a wicked style of seduction - which is a joy to read - that you can't help but get addicted to. Hence I recommend you get all these three Alien Abduction Novels at the same time, because you will seriously be pissed if you can't start the next right away! ;D

Now few words on Jaro. Hot, built, strong, possessive, bossy, addictive, funny, witty and sexy as hell, oh boy okay so more than few words. These purple men sure are a weakness when met, luckily there is more where they came from! In the next book we get not one seriously built Warrior but two! Brax and Xarn who help out Jaro get his human barbarian girl in Intentional Abduction. Joy!

I could go on and on about how great this novel is, but I'd be ruining the suspense so you'll just have to take my word on it and get this trilogy! Here is my 5 star review on Accidental Abduction, and in day or two you'll get my review on Dual Abduction! ( which just came out! )

I can't stress this enough, if you are at all into sci-fi romance, this funny, sexy, addictive trilogy has to make it to your e-reader!

REVIEW - RICOCHET

"As they race together through more setbacks and trouble than one can fit in a life time, feelings begin to blossom to the annoyance of both, dead set on not giving them away they take the frustration out in the only way they both know how, arguing like there is no tomorrow - and let's face it with a race like Nebulon Trake there might not be."

Excerpt: Chapter 1

Willa has something to prove to her father and her brothers, that's she's just as good a pilot as they are and not just a female to carry on the family line. Raining on her parade is that she's signed up with Stratton in the Nebulon Trake space race, her chance to come up on top and win some serious respect. Stratton is known for conniving chauvinist attributes and spending time alone with him fills Willa with anger - he better not hinder her chances at winning.

Stratton is beginning to question this pairing, the woman's a nuisance of the worst kind with a sharp tongue and prickly attitude like he's never countered before. He's in this race to catch another racer and collect the bounty on him, the last thing he needs is a smoking hot tempered woman to hinder his chances of making money.

As they race together through more setbacks and trouble than one can fit in a life time, feelings begin to blossom to the annoyance of both, dead set on not giving them away they take the frustration out in the only way they both know how, arguing like there is no tomorrow - and let's face it with a race like Nebulon Trake there might not be.

Ricochet is a fast pace thrill ride of epic proportions! Bickering, arguing, fighting passion filled trip from one check point to another, spiced with crashes, criminals and rivalry like no other. Sookoo knows how to write them exciting! I absolutely loved the verbal sparring, the bickering, the passion, the lust and the pride! In one word amazing!

Stratton "Sin" Sinnet was a handsome as sin arrogant, chauvinist, crude, brash specimen of a man with a lighting fast temper and sour mood - all those things made him despicable. And then enter Willa and Sin gets a run for his money, she gets under his skin and before he knows it he cares what she thinks or why she turned out like the ice queen she is. Sin was the worst type of alpha, but Willa softened his insult a bit and gave some humor to him which made him so adorable with his temper tantrums.

Willa was a heroine of strength and weakness in all her qualities, proud, arrogant and strong and all in excess! She came out as an ice queen, cursing, head strong and snarky - which made her one kick ass woman. She took crap from no one and held her own even when all odds were against her and even Sin was out of the game. Got to love a girl like that! But she was also too proud, ungiving and arrogant for her own good, but her teaming up with Stratton gave her a nice softer edge, without wiping away the grit of who she was.

I highly recommend this, just for the verbal fighting alone its awesome! The sexual tension undercurrent sure keeps the reader entertained, and when things do heat up it gets Hot! For ½ a star more I would have liked to have seen more love scenes, like maybe a quicky in the back of the ship or something. ;)

Ricochet is a hot romance between two arrogant pilots both willing to give nothing, but wanting all! And look at that cover - kicks ass doesn't it!

REVIEW - THIS ENDRIS NIGHT

"Shiya, a Yupik supermodel, travels to Alaska in pretense of attending a party where she’ll find the man of her dreams. But her real intent is to lure the man of her nightmares to where she can finally end a deadly game of cat and mouse. Gunnar is on Earth for one reason—to recover the wreckage of a Doppelganger crash that is scattered for miles, throughout an Alaskan resort and human settlements."

Shiya, a supermodel has had the unfortunate luck of getting herself a stalker. Tired of running from him, she sets up plan to use Madame Eve's 1NightStand agency to get herself in to Alaskan Ball where she's going to end this.

Meeting Gunnar wasn't part of the plan, falling for him wasn't part of the plan, and him telling her he's a shape shifting alien sure as hell wasn't part of any plan!

Gunnar sees in Shiya the genes passed on by his ancestors, she's half Doppelganger and with her genes activating she's about to experience the change. Unable to resist her he claims her, making sure their genes mix and neither can resist the other.

This novella is part of "Madame Eve's 1NightStand Holiday Anthology" with the following stories: Cerise DeLand ~ Santa, Cutie, Desiree Holt ~ He Came Upon a Midnight Clear, Stacy Kennedy ~ All She Wants For Christmas Is Her Dom, Rebecca Royce ~ I'll be Mated for Christmas, Liia Ann White ~ Her First White Christmas and Clarissa Yip ~ Silent Night’s Seduction. Stay tuned this week for the reviews on the novella you see above in bold italic.

D.L. Jackson is a superb writer, she can create a world that you can just feel yourself sinking into. This novella has a great paranormal setting, not to mention having a sweet science fiction twist. Is it too corny to mention horny aliens. ;)

The characters are all likeable, and the novella keeps great with the theme of the Anthology. I sure want to read more from D.L. Jackson! Loved her writing style!

REVIEW - BROKEN

"In a post-war future world where First Contact has been made, humans are colonizing the stars, and the nations of Earth have been united under a central government, Extrahumans are required by law to belong to the Union..."

Author: Susan J. Bigelow

Pages: 302 pages

Publisher: Candlemark & Gleam

Published: November 22nd, 2011

Form:Paperback

Series: Extrahumans #1

Genre: Sci-fi / Dystopia

Amazon: Buy / $19.95

“...When a young man with visions of the future sets out on a mission to define the course of human history, he encounters a devastated former hero, a fascist dictatorship bent on world domination, and the realities of living in a society where affiliation is everything.

Broken figured she was done with heroics when she lost the ability to fly and fled the confinement of the Extrahuman Union. But then the world started to fall apart around her, and the mysterious Michael Forward entered her life, dangling the possibility of redemption and rebirth.

Michael Forward can see the future, but all he wants is to escape the destiny he has struggled against all his life. When the moment comes, though, he finds he can't refuse. Now he needs the help of a homeless ex-superhero to save a baby who may be the key to humanity's freedom.

Monica had a good life with her large family, until two strangers and a baby showed up at her door. Now her family is gone, her life is in ruins, and she's on the run from the law.

In a time of spreading darkness, when paranoia and oppression have overtaken the world, can three unlikely allies preserve a small ray of hope for a better, brighter future?” ~Goodreads

Broken is a story of extrahumans in a dystopia sort of police-state sci-fi world. As an idea it’s great! But I had a real hard time getting into the story, the beginning was choppy to me, even though I know it was convening the aloof, memory loss and detachment of Broken, a woman who use to be the superhero Silverwyng, now a runaway dogging attention to keep herself away from facing her punishment.

This fell flat for me, I really wanted to like it, and tried to get into it but ended up abandoning the book.
If I had read this six years ago I bet I would have loved it, due to what was intriguing to me at the time.

The writing though, I liked, there was a fun rhythm to it and it was fast pace at times and slowed down to grab attention at other times. The world was interesting, original and had a cool edge to it.

I’d recommend this to sci-fi lovers and people who like their superheroes broken. ;)

REVIEW - DOCTOR WHO II VOLUME 1

"The Eleventh Doctor era begins here!
Join the eleventh incarnation of the Doctor and his latest companions, Amy Pond and her husband Rory Williams, as they travel to the far reaches of space - a planet populated by holograms - and the distant past - where they become embroiled in the Jack the Ripper murders in Victorian London.
This book collects the first four issues of the ongoing series, written by Tony Lee (Doctor Who: The Forgotten), with art by Andrew Currie (The Ultimates), Richard Piers Rayner (Road to Perdition), and Tim Hamilton (Fahrenheit 451).
 Doctor Who: The Ripper is now available in stores."

We do not get quite to The Ripper yet, this story begins with Rory's use of off the limit phone to check out what people said about their wedding (his and Amy's) but it turns out things escape through the connection and random characters all over the net pop by for a long term visit. From facebook requests to helpful stablers. And it's up to the doctor to figure out what to do with Rory's fub up.

Fun read! But I was expecting Jack the Ripper and this first part doesn't quite get that far yet. It's nice to see recently married Amy and Rory though!

REVIEW - JANE'S WARLORD

Author: Angela Knight
Paperback: 320 pages
Publisher: Berkley ( June 1, 2004 )
ISBN-10: 0425196844 
Adlibris: Link

And here I was afraid it was gonna be cheesy!

Tells you not to judge a book by its cover or name.

I did make new cover for it though, just for kicks and giggles, the original cover is below. I just felt it needed that something extra.

Now to the book!

The story begins with Baran making a time travel jump to Jane's 2005 to make sure serial killer who's stolen a jumpsuit is stopped from killing Jane Colby.

Baran is teamed with a giant wolf with voice manipulator allowing it the ability to speak, which is probably the best comic relief from an animal I've seen since Aisling Grey's demon Jim a newfie.

Jane returns from reporting on a savage killing for her small town newspaper to find a six foot four Viking of a man in her bedroom. A delicious "I'm here to save you - I don't believe you" ensues. Showing Jane's no run of the mill romance lead lady.

As the two battle things out, they try and catch the serial killer who keeps taunting them.

This book is filled with future, sci-fi and steamy scenes. It goes overboard in a fun readable way, the book is easy to finish in 24 hours.

To the depth of the characters, Baran has his issues but doesn't seem to lose control often, whereas Jane is tortured by the ghost of her father. I would have liked more on Jane's relationship with her father, and closer to the questions she bonders. But then again these characters don't linger too long after you finish reading.

It's a fun read, nothing too serious. So yeah, I'd recommend it for those days when you want to skip reality.
