That’s what makes her no-strings affair with her boss so perfect—his power in bed matches his respect for her independence. Still, when he surprises her with a ménage for her birthday, her secret thrill wars with a nagging thought: Why would he so casually share her with another man?

Even though Mark Rodriguez holds Jodi at arm’s length from his heart, her self-confidence is a turn-on he can’t resist. Inviting old college buddy and future business partner Sam into their bed for one night was supposed to set free her wildest fantasy. Instead he finds the tables turned, forced to watch while Sam brings her to the height of ecstasy.

Now, Mark’s not so sure he wants to share his treasure…

A fun and kinky story, that I really ejoyed. Let me tell you a little on what you get before I get into the story. M/F/M with flogger, bondage, hot sex, video taping and rear door entire. Plus some fun with breaking and entering and getting caught.

Little spoilers
I liked reading Jodi. She is like most of us women that thinks a man has forgotten her birthday, but ends more suspired than she’d ever thought. She didn’t think Mark would take her fantasy list serious and start working on it nor was she expecting in being caught breaking into a mans house. Her job is to brake in to a house and get into a safe. Mark throws a little surprise in before she starts the job, he has her to put in a vibrator. Needless to say she is in full blown out vibrating when she is caught by the owner of the house. So fun to read.

Mark has shared women with Sam before, so he didn’t think nothing of it when he arranged for the both of them to share Jodi. What he didn’t expect to have a certain feeling to come up when he seen someone else touching Jodi either. I loved reading Mark and Sam both are hunks and ready to please. Sam’s book is the next one I can’t wait to read it.

Kyra is a con woman and a particular kind of thief. She steals with a touch, but she only takes one thing: her target’s strongest skill. Which means she can be a fighter, an athlete, a musician, an artist—anything she wants… for a limited time. Heartbroken, she turns her gift toward avenging her father’s murder; with deadly patience, Kyra works her way into casino owner Gerard Serrano’s inner circle. After pulling off the ultimate con, she flees with his money and his pride.

A hit man who never misses the mark.

Reyes has nothing but his work. Pity for Kyra, he’s the best and mercy never sways him once he takes a job. He’s been hired to find out where Kyra hid the cash—and bring her back to face Serrano’s “justice.” Dead will do, if he can’t locate the loot. He’s never failed to complete a contract, but Kyra tempts him with her fierce heat and her outlaw heart. So Reyes has a hell of a choice: forsake his word or kill the woman he might love.

The author's Site indicates the skin books should be able to stand on their own, but they are part of a series

Ok, I can really kick myself over this book, I have had it on my shelf for over 4 months and kept pushing it back. I just have two words for this book FREAKING AWESOME!!! If you have been like me and are pushing it back get to it quicker and if you’re a PNR reader and don’t have this one on your list please add it to try. There is a lot of wonderful reviews on this book already so I’m just going to highlight what I liked. I didn’t find anything I could dislike. There is intense action, violence, a hot car, hot romance and down right good old fighting for your life at times. I will say this is a very suspenseful PRN, so if you’re really into romantic suspense I think you’d enjoy this, its not overly heavy in the paranormal.

I love how the author takes you into the world of Kyra, her ability and Kyra as a con woman. I haven’t ran across any books where there was a Con woman, but Kyra is really good at what she does and how she uses her ability to go even further in her con. Excellent idea you don’t read everyday.

I loved Reyes as a matter a fact where can I find one like him? LOL. Reyes is good a his job, he always takes out his mark. Until he falls for Kyra. Now he will stop at nothing to keep her safe and happy even if its let her go.

These two are more alike than they think. I loved how the more you read the more their relationship in romance grows. The author really takes you into the hero and heroin characters into some depth and their twisted past lives. It makes more of an interesting read when you can get to know the characters more.

I found this book nothing less than a thrilling page turner, so much so I couldn’t turn the pages fast enough. I love a good suspense with out all that CSI stuff. If your looking for a book you can really sink you teeth in this would be it. I would suggest that you give yourself time to read this one its not a quick simple book to read. Cynthia delivers a punch in mystery, excitement, danger, emotions, and a enthralling cast of agent characters that I truly enjoyed reading. Plus she throws a few surprise’s along the way. I found the right amount of murder case and hot steamy romance between the hero and heroine, so I never got board with either one.

This book is a scary thriller, so if your kind of squeamish be careful this book is about a killer that gets to know his victims then he tortures and kills them and its not pretty to read

I loved the depth or intensity if you will, the author wrote between the hero and heroine its brilliant and it hooked me in the most. I really enjoyed both Luke and Monica they had relations once and now they are together again. I loved reading Luke. He knows both of them has secrets and he has to find a way to get Monica to tell all, before they can have a chance together. I loved how the author wrote Monica all tuff. She has a reason she knows the killers so well and its not pretty to read. It takes both Luke and Monica to take down the killer and in the mean time make things work between them. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who wants a good mystery suspense

Interview and giveaway with author Eve Langlais

I am pleased to have Author Eve Langlais, here with us today. I hope you guys enjoy the interview and check out Eve's books.

Laurie-Hello Eve, Nice to have you here with us today. Would you please tell us a little about what you write?

Eve-I write a variety of romance genres - fantasy, paranormal, science fiction, erotica, BDSM contemporary. If I had to choose a favorite though, it would have to be paranormal. I especially love to write stories about heroines who aren't considered good girls but who manage to find love anyways. Take Lucifer's Daughter, releasing August 9th from Liquid Silver. Muriel really wants to find love but being the daughter of the most infamous demon in the world has made her search for '/the one' /almost impossible. But when she does find her man, watch out, because she proves bad girls know how to heat up the pages.


Laurie-Tell us about your latest release? Is it a series? If so do you know how many books your writing for this series?


Eve-I've got two series that have come out recently. I'll deal with my super popular Alien Mate series first. Alien Mate is a hot story of alien abduction where one big blue alien with abs to die for kidnaps a plump and feisty earthling for his mate. In Alien Mate 2, recently released from Amira Press, we meet a new hunky alien who has come to earth to collect his mate, the only problem is the one he wants to spend the rest of his life with isn't the one that was chosen for him. Given the wild success of this series, I'd wager a guess that many of us women harbor secret alien fantasies. Can there be anything more romantic than a super stud crossing the vast galaxy just to be with you? Sigh. And for all you Alien Mate lovers, just so you know the voices in my head are clamoring for a third story where this time the big blue hunk will be the one abducted instead.
Now to my newest series which begins with my August ninth release from Liquid Silver titled Lucifer's Daughter. 'Being Satan's daughter can be hell.' Expect to have your vision of Heaven and Hell redefined, and as my editor laughingly admitted, make you love Satan in his role as father. The sequel, titled Snowballs in Hell, will be coming out in a few months and not only deals with the repercussions of Hell freezing over, it also delves into the naughty world of threesomes. Yum.

Laurie-What’s two of the biggest things that influence your writing?

Eve-Wow, I'm not sure. I think my mood when I sit down to write affects the direction of my stories. And the second thing, probably noise levels. With summer here and the kids out of school writing a good solid two or three hours straight without interruption is a vague memory. I really can’t wait for September and some quiet time. LOL. I do love the little monkeys though distracting as they are.

Laurie-How long did it take you to publish your first book?

Eve-I sat down to write my first book ever titled Take A Chance in February 2009. I finished it in April of 2009 and I submitted it to a publisher. I got a prompt revise/resubmit which I quickly did and by August of 2009 Champagne Books offered me my very first contract. Take A Chance, a fantasy romance about a modern day librarian and a cursed wizard, was released in June of this year. It's a sweet fairy tale romance with magic, danger and of course an evil sorceress. Its sequel, title Chance's Game dealing with characters met in Take A Chance, releases in February of 2011. Meddlesome gods and a magical quest make that one a real treat.

Laurie-If you could give one tip for an upcoming writer. What would it be?

Eve-Write. You can spend a lot of time researching, asking questions, reading blogs and socializing, but the most important thing is to write and make sure you finish what you start.

Laurie-What are some of your favorite books you’ve read?

Eve-Gosh, we could be here all day. LOL. I am a voracious reader. I inhale books on an almost daily basis. I will admit to being a Twilight fan. I do love Meyer’s version of vampires and the way she built a great love story without ever really having any sex. That takes talent! Kresley Cole is a great alpha male writer. I can never put her books down. Jim Butcher needs mentioning for his world building in the Dresden Files along with Patrica Briggs. They, and many more, all grace my groaning bookshelves.


Laurie-I read in your Bio you like to play the Wii? What are some of your favorite games?

Eve-LOL. I love Rockband. I am the designated guitar player with the Lego version being our music of choice. Mario Galaxy rocks as do all the Mario Party's. I'm proud to say I've played all 8. RPG's are my favorite games of all but sadly the Wii isn't too strong on those yet.

Laurie-What are you working on next?

Eve-Alien Mate 3 is currently brewing in my mind and begging for release. I've also got a Cleopatra paranormal that's partially fleshed out. According to her voice in my head, history didn't tell the whole truth and she's expecting me to set the record straight. I usually keep the projects section of my website, EveLanglais.com, updated with in progress works.

Your favorite TV show at this time?
