Lady Eleanor Ramsay is the only one who knows the truth about Hart Mackenzie. Once his fiancée, she is the sole woman to whom he could ever pour out his heart.

Hart has it all--a dukedom, wealth, power, influence, whatever he desires. Every woman wants him--his seductive skills are legendary. But Hart has sacrificed much to keep his brothers safe, first from their brutal father, and then from the world. He's also suffered loss--his wife, his infant son, and the woman he loved with all his heart though he realized it too late. 

Now, Eleanor has reappeared on Hart's doorstep, with scandalous nude photographs of Hart taken long ago. Intrigued by the challenge in her blue eyes--and aroused by her charming, no-nonsense determination--Hart wonders if his young love has come to ruin him . . . or save him.

Promo giveaway my Familiar Stranger by Victoria Danann



TITLE: My Familiar Stranger (The Order of the Black Swan: Book One)

AUTHOR: Victoria Danann (http://www.VictoriaDanann.com)

AVAILABLE FOR SALE AT: Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, Goodreads, Smashwords, 7th House for $5.99

RATING ACCORDING TO YOUR SYSTEM: HOT

DESCRIPTION: This is a smart, new e-series with REAL (capital R) Romance from the author of Seasons of the Witch.

BLURB: Minutes ahead of inevitable assassination, Elora Laiken is forced into an experimental device that transports her to a dimension that is similar, but not identical to her own. As a stranger in a "strangish" land, she makes the best of the situation as the first female operative in an ancient fraternity of vampire hunters and paranormal investigators known as The Order of the Black Swan.

She needs courage, wit, skill, and the enhanced physical abilities she gained by slipping dimensions to succeed as part of an elite team, but distractions abound with four men in hot pursuit: three want her affections, one wants her life.

Of course a young woman could suffer worse problems than having gorgeous men in love with her. Perhaps more importantly, in the midst of an epidemic of vampire related abductions, can she stay alive long enough to choose between the devotion of the noble and stalwart knight who has saved her life twice, the charm and sexual magnetism of the fun loving elf who wants to claim her as his mate, or the passion of the intensely seductive, six-hundred-year-old vampire?

CHALLENGE QUESTION: What do women want? (I know the answer. If you are a devotee of paranormal romance, you do, too.)

To enter answer the question above along with an email. This is an ebook coupon from smashwords so giveaway is international and the best thing is the author is giving away 10 of them so get in there and answer the question. Oh yeah in case you didnt know Smashwords  has several different formats for ebooks.

Guest romance author Juliana Stone


Please welcome guest author Juliana Stone!


I want to thank Bitten by Paranormal Romance for having me here today, to help celebrate the release of Wicked Road to Hell.  A lot of people have been waiting months to read his book, and I am so happy he and Ana can finally have their HEA!

For today’s I thought I’d do something different and combine my love of words with my love of writing and tell you guys what song best describes each character in Wicked Road to Hell!

First off, sexy sorcerer Declan O’Hara.  He’s tall, hot, with yummy abs and a passionate nature.  He’s loyal and honourable and above all else, willing to do whatever it takes to claim the woman he loves.  He’s like an outlaw in a way and I’m thinking ‘Blaze of Glory’ by the delicious Jon Bon Jovi kinda gives me the right vibe for Declan.

Next up, Ana DeLacrux. She’s a 300 year old vampire, who appears cold and condescending.  She can be rude, harsh and cutthroat.  But she can also be tender, loving and passionate. She yearns for a child she’ll never have and a love that can’t be.  I get sad when I think about her and her past. She’s lost Declan and now that he’s back in her life their future can never happen.  I think of the Dixie Chicks, Traveling Soldier and it totally fits the mood.

Now we get to Nico.  Another tortured male with a anguished past. (what’s with me and all the tortured angst?) LOL.  He’s a Jaguar Warrior who lost his mate tragically and he thinks he’ll be alone forever.  He offered himself up in place of Julian Castille so Julian could have his HEA.  He’s kind of bitter, pissed off a lot, and willing to get down and dirty to get the job done.  I’m feeling Five Finger Death Punch here and their cover of Bad Company.  Oh yeah!

I’ve a new character in this book, alpha werewolf Ransome LaPierre.  He’s smooth as silk, fierce and a real ladies man.  He’s loyal to his pack, his friends and will do what he must to keep New Orleans Safe.  With his dark, honeyed colour looks and sweet ‘Nawlins drawl, he’s one hell of a specimen.  For him?  Burn it to The Ground by fellow Canuks, Nickelback!

I love music and I love words.  Combining them just makes sense! So, any thoughts on a theme song for the book or series?  I’d love some suggestions!

Blurb: With the legions of the underworld gathering and chaos close at hand, Sorcerer Declan O’Hara’s deadly skills will be tested. But nothing will sway him from his duty, not even her…

Rescued from eternal darkness, vampire Ana DeLacrux owes her life to a mysterious stranger who asks for only one thing—her absolute allegiance. She serves this master without question until Declan, the one man who can make her forget her vow, returns. His magic is stronger, darker…more compelling than ever. His blood awakens a hunger she must resist, or risk deadly consequences.

As Ana and Declan join forces, the streets of New Orleans become a dangerous place for both humans and the otherworld. And the most dangerous place of all is a road Declan’s traveled before…the wicked road to hell.

1.       Would you tell everyone a little about yourself?
I feel way too young to be my numerical age or have kids my kids ages, or to have been married as long as I have. I love animals, chocolate, champagne, snow and hate to sweat. The national anthem makes me misty-eyed, as does anything having to do with the people who have served our country. I am eternally grateful to them. I’m pretty straightforward; what you see is what you get. Deal with it. J
