Yolanda Sfetsos Featured Author

MMC friend and February's Midnight Brew Author, Yolanda Sfetsos writes paranormal and sci-fi romance with passionate flair. If you missed reading her Brew this month, catch it on our featured page today, or watch for the archived interview later this week on our website.

When asked who she'd pick as the actor to play her hero Colt Marshall (from her book Wither), she said she'd cast Colin Farrell in the role, since it was this picture of the dangerous bad boy she referred to while writing the book.

Hmm, yes, I think we'd agree, Colin would make a delectable Colt. :wink:


Yolanda has written some very sexy heroes, and today you will get a chance to win your own!

Just leave a comment on this post and you'll be entered to win *winner's choice* of one of her ebooks.

Contest ends Monday, March 1st at midnight and the winner will be announced Tuesday, March 2, 2010. Good luck.





Thanks to Yolanda for offering up such a cool treat for our readers! You totally rock, sugar!

Her Dark Desires by Charisma Knight


Charisma Knight's Her Dark Desires


Dremon, a five hundred year old tall, dark, and brooding vampire has been alone far too long. From the moment he laid eyes upon Anais, he read her like an open book. Swearing an oath to claim the sensual goddess, Dremon suddenly realizes she is what he has searched for his entire existence. Her exquisite looks, strong will, and fiery passion intrigues and seduces him all in one breath.

Two different beings from two entirely different worlds quickly discover they have an insatiable thirst of forbidden carnal desires. Together, they delve into the depths of the darkest parts of their souls, discovering they can never truly sate the untamed fire down below.

Featured Book: Skyler White's and Falling, Fly

Hot fresh, paranormal...

Introducing, Skyler White's

and Falling, Fly

Olivia is a vampire bored with modernity. Tattooist, boyfriend, black-metal singer: everyone you don’t love tastes the same. The fallen angel returns to Ireland’s subterranean L’Otel Matillide—the Hotel of the Damned—to bury her hope with her severed wings.

In this flame-papered, inertia-powered hotel, Olivia encounters Dominic O’Shaunnessey, a revolutionary neuroscientist secretly plagued by impossible visions. Dominic, convinced that Olivia is delusional and not damned, urges her to enroll in his research. His medication, he asserts, can cure her of mythology. She counters that his hallucinations are past-life memories and part of an ancient curse of repeated, remembered incarnations.

In a secret Hell where billionaires and burned-out rock stars mingle with ancient and allegorical beings, Olivia and Dominic discover the only force consistent between their opposing realities is the deep, erotic gravity between them. Bound to each other finally in a knot of interwoven freedoms, Dominic and Olivia—the vision-touched scientist and the earth-bound angel, reborn and undead—encounter the mystery of love: it is both fall and flight.

Available in paperback from Berkley Books, March 2nd, 2010

Weirdly 3 - Only the Moon Will Tell

Weirdly 3 is now available from Wild Child Publishing.

From paranormal to weird, from chilling to odd to scary, Weirdly: Volume 3 will sate your lust for strangeness in bite-sized pieces. Each tale weaves its own spell. Beasts, ghosts, demons, evil creatures and, of course, every day, as well as evil, people inhabit Weirdly's pages.

An ice trucker goes out on his first journey only to meet a legend... a jack-in-the-box like you've never seen... Gilbert Boggs yearns for years past and discovers that wondering "what if" might be more than he bargained for... When Jolie Broussard moves to the small town of Maison Rouge, she's just looking for a solitude, but it's not what she gets. Can she save herself? Sally and Bob love children, but they love their pets too... And much more. Do you dare to read them?



The Midnight Moon Cafe's own Cora Zane has a story in this volume, called Only the Moon Will Tell.


About the story....
Jolie Broussard is an outsider in the little town of Maison Rouge, Louisiana. Her curious, monthly routine comes under suspicion when the town folk invite her to a firelight fais-do-do at Richard Park? What secrets will be revealed in the dark of night? Only the moon will tell.
