Writeminded e-Book Extravaganza Giveaway #26
Written by: Fatin on September 22, 2009
Someone wants their perfect weapon back, only she’s not coming quietly.
Alexa Wells wants her life back. She’s just not sure what that life was. The memories inside her head—a stripper’s—aren’t hers, and before she humiliates herself onstage one more time, she sets out to collect the scattered pieces of her mind. The trail leads to Boston, charges of identity theft and murder, and the real bombshell: a forgotten werewolf lover who insists she’s a werewolf hybrid.
Matt York doesn’t care that she looks at him like he’s been smoking crack between court cases. Now that he has her back he’s not about to let her go it alone, even if she can easily kick ass and take names all by herself. Amnesia only scratches the surface of her problems, and like it or not, she’s stuck with him.
She’s also stuck with Robert Gamboldt, a venture capitalist who’s not above murdering his way to the top. He’s not about to lose his prize possession without playing dirty. It’s a simple enough offer. Be his personal assassin, or go to jail.
With options like that, it’s enough to make a hybrid go full-blood.

Gone without a trace…now danger tracks them to their one safe harbor.
A hundred years ago, her mother’s plea gave Morag a second chance at life—but not as she knew it. Now she lives a mostly solitary life as a selkie, seal in winter, human in summer, barely aging while her family and friends pass away. As the lonely years become almost too heavy to bear, she clings to the memory of one intense summer affair with a young man who left her, as humans always do.
Nine years have passed since Clay hitchhiked to the Maritimes, where he embarked on a memorable if short-lived affair with a mysterious woman. Their enchanted time together called him back a few months later—but she had disappeared. Now, wounded and desperate, Selkie Island is the only safe harbor he can dredge from his feverish haze of pain.
When a strange boat plows onto the beach, Morag is curious—and shocked to discover her long-lost lover, unconscious and hurt. Nursing him back to health is the first thing on her mind…right after she convinces him she’s real.
As real as the danger following in his wake…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Falling in love is the last thing on his busy agenda…but compromising positions can lead just about anywhere.
David Strong knows how to do a lot of things—run an international fitness company, finesse stock portfolios and stay out of emotional entanglements. That is, until he gets tangled up with Sophie Delfino and her Sensational Sex workout. He’s supposed to help her demonstrate Kama Sutra positions for her couples’ yoga class. The rigorous postures require more than just physical control. And his co-instructor unexpectedly tests his control to the limit.
Sophie’s been fantasizing about David since her teens, but she never dreamed she’d actually be expected to run through her intimate desires—with an audience! The class is very professional, tame even—or it would be, if she’d been in any of the positions before. But she hasn’t—except in her wildest fantasies about David. Sophie knows she wants David in every way, and she’s flexible enough to use whatever she has to get him.
David can’t afford any unexpected distractions. Besides the sensual positions he has to endure without embarrassing himself in public, there’s an embezzler stealing from his company. And then there’s Sophie—who is well on her way to stealing his well-guarded heart.

Love will give them strength—or prove to be their fatal flaw.
Guardians of the Light, Book 1
Dara Khan Androcles is really in over her head this time. From childhood she’s been forced to hide her half-dragon mage fighting skills behind a public persona as a healer. Now, with a traitor and his demon threatening the throne of Safehold, Dara has no choice but to turn reluctant warrior—and seek help.
She strikes a bargain with runaway Elven prince Loren ta Cedric and his sentient, pain-in-the-butt war mare, Hani’ena. Loren’s not only too handsome for Dara’s own good, the powerful empath can see right through to the pain that drives her.
Loren can’t help but feel Dara’s every hurt, physical and emotional. Though his need for her drives him half mad, he must stay his course to see justice done for his people. Even if it means swearing a Life Debt to the distracting mortal.
That vow, made in the heat of their parallel quests, carries more power than either of them guessed. The power to bond the unlikely pair as Life Mates. The power to lay bare the fears and desires that could bind them to a single purpose—or tear them apart.
All the while a demon awaits, ready to destroy all that they hold dear.

One woman’s mission to bring down a sexy elemental shifter turns into a battle of wills…and hearts.
Falcon Mercenary Group, Book 1
Hostage recovery specialist Eli Chance has a secret. He was born a shifter. A freak of nature.
While on a mission, Eli’s men and their mercenary guide are exposed to a powerful chemical agent, and suddenly his secret has become easier to hide. Now he’s not the only one with the gift. But for his men, this “gift” is becoming more and more of a curse.
Tyana Berezovsky’s brother Damiano was the guide for Eli’s team and was the worst affected by the chemical. As he grows increasingly unstable, Tyana fears she’s going to lose him to the beast he is becoming.
Tyana will do whatever it takes to help him, even if it means using her body to go after the one man she thinks holds all the blame—and possibly the cure. Eli Chance.

I’ve been wanting Selkie Island and Stripped. Great selection.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:15 am
More awesomeness!
Another collection I’ve been wanting to read (except Into the Mist, which, of course, I have and love!
)
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:21 am
Great books again!
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:22 am
More new authors I haven’t read except for Maya.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:23 am
This is one of the Maya books that I haven’t read. I haven’t read the other authors in this selection either.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:24 am
I agree. This group is worth it for Into the Mist alone! That book is in, in my opinion, one of Maya’s top five books that have been released. (1. Sweet Persusion, 2. Sweet Surrender, 3. Be with Me, 4. Into the Mist, 5. Into the Lair) Now, I have an ARC of Sweet Suduction, which does not release until October 6th, 2009, and I will let you know after that date where I think it rates. Eli and Ty are hot, and we get introduced to Ian and Breden, the cat shifters, who are way alpha and hot. Great group. Marie R.
September 22nd, 2009 at 11:25 am
These are all new to me except for Maya’s! Great list of books.

I read Into the Mist,It was HOT and STEAMY!haven’t read the other books, They sound GOOD too.
September 22nd, 2009 at 1:24 pm
I am not sure what Maya’s writing schedule is right now. I know that she is very busy. I just heard that there will for certain be a 5th book in her Sweet Series, for Connor, and that will be relased in April of 2011. I am hoping that she will be slipping us a new FMG book in between there, but then with all the hype going on right now for the Sweet Series and Nathan and Julie’s book, and of course the 4th book as well, Sweet Temptation is due on April 2010 (Mr. Micah Hudson, can I hear a “We want Micah now out there?!). The woman has got to be booked for years; but I love her books. Marie R.
