I have no doubt I'll enjoy Lush! Oh and in truth? The horse shifter thing kinda squicks me but it wasn't a large part of the storyline so I could get past it. The spiders falling from the ceiling? EWW! I have book three and book four should be shipping soon from Amazon (on release) LOL, Sasha, I don’t count spelling errors in blog entries or replies unless it’s a rant about grammar!

I'd have to hurt you! LOL I loved Kissing Sin, who doesn't wasn a stallion of their own. *grin* I've already read book three too and am eagerly awaiting book 4 of the series. I've eyed Moon Called, but not picked it up yet. Maybe I will now. Hope you enjoy LUSH!! I’m so glad you didn;t put any spoilers for A FEW DOLLARS MORE. I’d have to hurt you! LOL

YES! Lauren rocks." Along with voting for my other favs. Sucks though when two favorites are pinned against each other. Also sucks when books you expect to see in a category as outstanding aren't there, ya know? Though it made it EASY to vote for Jaci under Demon category cuz neither Jackie nor Richelle were listed. No angst there. PS - saw Cascadia Wolves were nominated for several “Fantasm” awards - enjoyed muchly thowing in my vote and saying “YES! YES! Lauren rocks.”

Really. Jackie's Hell's Belles was also a wonderful read. And C.E. Murphy's Urban Shaman was one of the best UF books i've read in years. Jordan - Succubus Blues was outstanding. Really.

I just finished Blood Bound and loved it. Another favorite is Nightlife by Rob Thurman. Great stuff. :) I just picked up Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews. Hope to dig into it tonight. I've heard great things about Succubus Blues, but I haven't grabbed it yet. I agree that there are a lot of really good paranormals out there, particularly in the fantasy/sci-fi section.

Not enough Kisten for my taste either. Still, I loved it. Jo - thank you so much! I loved Touch the Dark too and I'm jealous you got hold of an ARC for the next in the series - I've pre-ordered it from Amazon - it's going to be a very good May and June I think. I liked Steelflower as well, I think Lilith Saintcrow's voice is wonderful. Rhian - the new Harrison is fab but there’s a twist that was rather shocking. Not enough Kisten for my taste either.

Along with Moon Called one of my favourite books last year, as was Touch the Dark by Karen Chance and I have just read the sequel Claimed by Shadow, which was just as good (her website has a couple of chapters of each book as excerpts). I have just finished Magic Bites by Ilona Andrews which is also very good (excerpt on her site) but unfortunately no sequel as yet! I think all 3 books are classed as Urban Fantasy. One more recommendation is a Samhain e-book, Steelflower by Lilith Saintcrow, which I stayed up way past my bedtime to finish. I also wanted to thank you for Chased and am looking forward to going back to Petal in the summer! Jo Ive read all the books you mentioned and like you enjoyed them all.

Just one of the reasons i love you and love your writing. Loved the Briggs books too - but then I adore Urban Fantasy and have for decades. (Scary that) Glad to hear you like new Kim book because it's in my TBR and when I read a negative review by someone who's tastes seem to run in same direction as mine, i developed a fear of picking up the book. I so didn't want to be disappointed. Whew. Will be reading it next week out at the Masters when I'm not pointing and shooting with the camera.
