Paranormal Hump Day Heroes!

Whether your idea of a hot paranormal hero is a love lost demon incubus with brooding looks, a werewolf bodyguard filling your heart with desire, or an alien cat hero who is alpha male perfection, these sizzling summer ebook and paperback reads will fire your imagination!


Nebulous by Shiloh Walker
Ellora's Cave
ISBN: 9781419927522; ebook.

Seven hundred years have passed since Azar’s birth. A demon-born incubus, his survival depends on women. Although he doesn’t remember all of his mortal life, he does remember his lost love…Caoilinn.

But he begins to dream of another woman. And demons do not dream. She rekindles the embers of his lost humanity and makes him yearn for things he cannot have.

Kerrigan dreams of Azar as well, and one night, while he watches her, she whispers his name. A name she can’t possibly know.

A name that will summon a demon…

Temptation in Shadows by Gena Showalter

Tall, lean, muscular—and definitely rough around the edges—Sean Walker is not your typical nightclub bodyguard. He’s a controller of shadows, able to wield darkness at will. But when a mysterious woman at the club turns out to have powers greater than his own, he has no choice but seduction…

Hunting Temptation by Lorie O'Clare

A manhunter by trade, Seth is on the trail of his most dangerous prey yet: a living, breathing, maneating werewolf. But the last thing he expects to catch in his trap is a beautiful, beguiling woman—with some wild animal urges of her own…

Heart On Fire - free on Smashwords

Cora has finally managed to migrate the last of her free reads over to Smashwords!

About Heart on Fire:

Hallie Richmond never would have guessed she'd be spending Valentine's Day working overtime with her sexy boss. However, Mitchell Draven is interested in more than company spreadsheets. He's in love with Hallie, and he's finally ready to confess face-to-face that she sets his heart on fire!

Heart on Fire is part of the Werekind series. This book was originally released in 2007 at the Midnight Moon Cafe as part of the Valentine's Day celebration held that year, but it's contemporary enough for everyday reading. It has been completely updated and re-edited for Smashwords. It does contain graphic naughty bits (adult content) so you must be 18+ to download it. :0)

Heart On Fire is available here: http://www.smashwords.com/books/view/18955

Enter the Night
by Maggie Berkley


About the book:


“Be careful of who you trust.”


Words of warning, something Morgan Crowe tended to ignore.


Born Morriganna nic Thulath over thousands of years ago in the ShadowedLands of the Immortal Sidhe, she was the leader of the Mor’sin’dar King’s Battle Crows. Named the Morrigu, she was deadly, precise and vengeful.

Favored by her King, Morgan lived an unrestrained life until her temper forced him to remove her from the Courts. For years she lived among the humans, keeping an eye out on things Fae and waiting until the time her beloved King resends his decision and welcomes her back with open arms. But things have changed within the Sidhe lands, deaths occurred and old rumors abound. Unknowingly Morgan has become the object of revenge of a hateful Queen and a sadistic enemy from her past.

Now enters a Were, shape changers with the natural ability to take animal form and with his appearance comes temptation and love. But is he all that he seems? And is she willing to defy her society to find out if he is. For Morgan, her world tumbles around in a whirlwind until all hell breaks loose.

Unchained

Hot Off The Shelf

Unchained
by Sharon Ashwood

Been there, slain that . . .


Ashe Carver, monster-killer, has the scars to prove it. But faced with a custody battle, she's hung up her stakes and taken a job at the public library, determined to show the courts and her ten-year-old daughter that she's as good a mother as she is a hunter.

Easier said than done. There are lovelorn vampires haunting the library, a slime demon in the shopping mall, and her new-mom sister needs a hand with her ghostbusting biz. Then, after centuries guarding a supernatural prison, Captain Reynard strides into her world like a hero from the library's Must Reads. Smokingly gorgeous, passionate and courageous to a fault, he has only weeks to live unless Ashe finds the thief who took his soul.

Ashe picks up her weapons to save the day—but not every problem can be solved with a stake. With so much tragedy in her past, Ashe fears the disaster she sees ahead—and prays she doesn't fail everyone. Again.

Memories are the hardest monsters to kill.

Playing By The Numbers

What numbers hold special meaning to you? Birthdays, holidays, special occasions in your life or the life of your loved ones? Have you ever noticed a pattern of numbers that seem to reoccur in your life?

Cassandra was born on the 16th, so 16 is an important number in her chart. She may see it repeating in her life. In the occult science of numerology, we would add those numbers together (1 + 6) and arrive at 7.


If the number 7 can be found in your numerology chart:

You are analytical, intellectual, focused, scientific and inventive, contemplative, meditative, spiritual and enigmatic. You are a seeker of truth and an accumulator of knowledge and wisdom.

You prefer working alone and you need space and privacy. You enjoy solitude, but you also like to display your knowledge in public. You are an abstract thinker, you are self-oriented, a perfectionist and you possess great mental strength

Number 7 in your chart means you might do well in these career paths:

Scientist, religious leader, philosopher, scholar, preacher, sage, teacher, inventor, researcher.

Weaknesses commonly associated with number 7 in your chart:
Not to worry, you probably don't have all of these traits. :P

Intimacy can be difficult for you. Tendencies might be: cynical, selfish, egocentric, withdrawn, aloof, lonely, overly reserved and suspicious.


Cora was born on the 28th, so 28 is an important number in her chart. She may see it repeating in her life. In the occult science of numerology, we would add those numbers together (2 + 8 = 10; 1 + 0 =1) and arrive at 1.

If the number 1 can be found in your numerology chart:

Extraordinary leadership skills, very ambitious, driven, goal-oriented, strong will power, courageous, unconventional, inventive, creative, original, pioneer, unique approach to problems, independent, individualistic, great potential for success.

Number 1 in your chart means you might do well in these career paths:

Entrepreneur, leader, manager, business person, inventor, scientist, ideally you should be your own boss.

Weaknesses commonly associated with number 1 in your chart:
Not to worry, you probably don't have all of these traits. :P

Stubborn, dominant, impatient, aggressive, demands respect and attention, pride, need to feel in command.

What is your birthday's core number?

The Language of Numbers

Behind the Language of Numbers
By raphnix cruz

Often associated with occult and astrology, numerology is any of the many systems, tradition, or beliefs in a mystical relationship between numbers and physical objects or living things. It is the study of numbers and letters significance. In the process of analyzing one's name or birth date, numerology is a tool to help understand the Eternal OM.

It is perceived to be attacking the laws and teachings of the Bible. It does not. The use of numbers in the Bible, Koran and some religious books have been noted in the interpretation by people of what is wisdom.

Numerology works in many ways. Through numerology, a person gains deeper knowledge and a broader idea of one's destiny. It also soundly enlightens someone with a better understanding of others, both in the good and bad aspect.

The birthday number is known to be the key of one' s fate. It influences the life and it is unalterable . Birth decides the note of harmony and vibration. It relates the material side of life. Since there are only nine numbers in numerology, each person is assigned to all these numbers.

The heart number on the other hand, helps someone to find the person's desires. While the heart number works for desires, the maturity number signifies the dominant traits that shapes his decision making process. While people may have any number names, the deciding factor is the destiny number.

Tested and believed, numerology can be used to find the time best for investing, getting a job, marrying, traveling or plans of moving.

The combination of the letters in the name and the date of birth gives clues of what character, strengths and weaknesses a person has. This information can be useful to get back on track and head to the same direction one is destined to take. Changes in one's life can be pleasantly surprising at how everything seems to be falling into place, and the happiness that one feels is realized. While going on the wrong way with what has been laid up on birth might be too stressful and might lead to an unfulfilled life.

Numerology when used in the right way unleashes someone from perceived limitations and pushes someone to the best he can be. Knowing the weakness, alerts a possible action to alter this into strengths.

The use of numerology depends on the person. Either one uses the positive traits or ignore it. Either one notes the negative trait and develop it to a positive one or the reverse. The end of it still lies on the person.

Crystals for Moon in Aquarius

by Darlene Siddons

January 20 - February 18

Moon Crystal: Clear Quartz
Intuition Crystal: Aquamarine

When your moon is in Aquarius you dislike change and really avoid it at almost all cost. The crystal that helps balance this for you is Clear Crystal, this crystal has a very clear vibration and it stores, releases and adjusts energies. This is one of the best neutral crystals you can carry and it balances out your fear of change.

You tend to be independent with a flair of eccentricity and anything scientific can grab your interest. You can find your self first in line at any Go Green events as ecology, the planet and humanity are on the top of your list of interests and are very important to you. Encouraging social change and the evolution of the earth's population is your passion and Blue Celestite assists you in accomplishing these important issues with grace and ease.

Even though you place so much importance on humanity, you tend to feel isolated from it also; and have the feelings and needs of emotional independence, carrying Chalcedony helps balance out these two areas that seem to create a tug and pull on you and it also helps you find the intimacy that you really need in your relationships.

Aquarian Moon people have that feeling that they are misplaced and don't really belong here, they have that pull within themselves to reunite and want to go home as they just don't feel comfortable here on earth. If you carry Moldavite with you always, this will help relieve this feeling of not belonging here.

Another area that pulls you in two directions is the part of you that wants change just because and then the part of you that resists change just because; all of this can create extreme mood swings and what stabilizes this is Selenite. You can also use Aquamarine as it assists in the resistance to change that seems to plaque you.

When you find yourself needing to feel nurtured and grounded the best crystal for this purpose is Vanadinite as it will help you feel comfortable here on earth and supports a comfortable connection to where you live here on earth. You can also use it for meditation and it helps you to self-nurture; another great meditation crystal is the Aquamarine as it quiets the mind and helps clear the thoughts and helps you tap into your intuition and higher consciousness.

Friday Flirts Game!

Men often say they have a difficult time reading our signals. Are we women too complex or too subtle in our flirting? Do you have a favorite gesture or a signature move that indicates you're attracted or ready for love? ;)

I'll go first. My main move is to bite my lower lip just a little. I do it almost subconsciously when I am attracted to someone. But beware guys—I also chew on my lower lip when I am doing math! rofl. Maybe I am mixing my signals.
