“Beyond the Veil” is a Dark Angel Recommended Read!

The good reviews continue to come in for “Beyond the Veil!” Here is an excerpt of the review from Dark Angel Reviewer Amanda Haffery…

“BEYOND THE VEIL is a knockout winner in my opinion. Filled to the brim with every aspect a paranormal story needs, I was on the edge of my seat in anticipation from beginning to end. Bruce and Carolyn are divine. I couldn't get enough of their encounters. Carolyn's ability, with the help of the ring, really added some nail biting moments to the amazing storyline. Carolyn is a multi-layered character. One moment she's so sweet and innocent and the next she's like a sex kitten who can't get enough of Bruce. Bruce is so sexy he made my mouth water. Poor man is a ghost which really made things interesting for him and Carolyn both. Being a ghost didn't alter his man bits though and he was more than able to perform and satisfy both Carolyn and this reader. I couldn't wait to find out if these two would live happily ever after and whether it would be in the real world or BEYOND THE VEIL. Amanda Sidhe really captivated me with her creative world, her characters and the passion that exploded between them. She's definitely someone I'll be looking forward to for a long time to come.”

Fallen Angel gives a wonderful review of “Beyond the Veil”


Excerpt from the review:

“Beyond The Veil is a unique, erotic tale of two lovers against insurmountable odds, trying to discover a way to be together. As they get to know each other, their intimate encounters were ethereal and sensual, all at once, causing me to fantasize about a paranormal encounter of my own. Sometimes on her plane of existence and sometimes on his, the two come together in a way that gives new meaning to the term “timeless romance”.

Fallen Angel gives a glowing review of “Hand-Dipped Pleasure”


Excerpt from the review:

“This story starts out hot and gets hotter and hotter and as it progresses. This is the first Exotika book that I have read and I enjoyed the book. My first inclination was that it would be all about the sexual experience that the couple went through and that the story itself would not exist but that was not true with this story. I think the fact that the couple already knew each other made it very interesting and made the sexual scenes much more intense. If this is the case for all Exotika’s books then I will be reading more and more of them in the future. I encourage you to check out this book, it has a great friendship that could develop into something much more and the strawberries just might make you want to try a few of your own…maybe the way that Tasha and Dale did.

Deliciously naughty!

Hand-Dipped Pleasure
By Leannan Mac Llyr

Tasha has always had a crush on Dale, the young stud muffin who owns the confectionery. The morning of the Strawberry Festival she comes to deliver strawberries for his specialty, Hand-Dipped Chocolate Strawberries. Only Dale hasn't even gotten his naked self out of bed yet. All thoughts of business fly out of her mind as Dale not only claims her, but teaches her the game of dominance. With some whipped cream and chocolate Dale shows her how sweet bondage can be and that their age difference means nothing to him.

Available now at Ellora’s Cave!


Excerpt

Tasha could barely breathe. Such a fine specimen and here he lay within reach. Her hand reached out and ever so lightly stroked Dale's hair. It was as soft and full as she had thought it would be. He didn't even stir at the touch. Tasha drew back her hand and sniffed her fingertips. His shampoo and personal scent clung to her and she smiled. There was no way she could ever have him for her own. Their age difference alone made that obvious, but still.

Once more she reached out. Lightly she rested her fingertips on the cap of his shoulder. Just to wake him, she told herself. Warm and firm to the touch Dale felt so real to her right then. Not that he'd not been real before of course, but he always seemed somehow more image and attitude than flesh and blood.

Such a nice body wasted on such a childish jerk. She stroked down his back, all the way to his fine, tight ass. "And you are an ass, aren't you?" she whispered. And then she did something she never in a million years would have thought herself capable of doing. She whacked his ass. Hard.

Dale flipped over suddenly. In mid-turn his arm flew out and he snatched Tasha by the wrist. With a squeak of surprise she flipped off her feet and landed right on Dale's chest. He didn't stop rolling even then. Not until he was on his side facing her as she lay on the far side of the bed from where she began. Her body pressed to his. Thighs. Tummies. Breasts to chest. His right arm beneath her and embracing her tightly. His other hand still gripping her wrist. Faces inches apart.

"Mmmmm," Dale mumbled. "I'm the only one who does the spanking around here."

"Uh-huh. I'll remember that," Tasha stammered, acutely aware of every inch of contact between them. She'd meant her comment to sound pithy or sarcastic, but it had come out with a tremble. One that traveled the full length of her spine and cascaded out to the rest of her body.

"You do that," Dale told her, his voice deep and sexy and not in the least bit miffed. Finally his eyes opened. The rich, dark chocolate brown melted her resolve like caramel in a double boiler. The little grin teasing the corners of his mouth turned her resistance to jelly. And not even the semi-firm jelly of a jelly bean, but the ooey-gooey jelly of a plump jelly donut that would blob out the other end when you bit into it. Even if she wanted to get away she couldn't have convinced her throbbing libido of that. Dale continued, "There is another rule to this room. No one is allowed to be dressed here without my express permission."

Tasha raised her eyebrows. "Oh, really?" Again, not sarcastic as she'd aimed for. Instead it came out all breathless and "take me now, big daddy."

"Yes. Really. And do you know what?" His gaze slid over her face and settled on her lips until she thought for sure he was going to plant a kiss her.

"Uh… What?" Her head tilted, inviting the kiss. Wanting it.

"You don't have permission."

In the basement of the Warren Mansion Museum, Carolyn discovers a diamond ring enchanted to allow the wearer to see and interact with spirits. Bruce, cursed hundreds of years ago, is trapped as a spirit beyond the veil between worlds. Carolyn is the first person to see him in ages. And not just see him, but touch him. The attraction between the dominant and sexy Bruce and the passionate Carolyn builds with each sizzling encounter. Curses have a way of not wanting to be broken, putting them both in serious peril. Will the love between them, combined with the power of the ring, be enough to defeat the curse of a powerful voodoo priestess?

Excerpt:

Bruce crossed to her suddenly, reaching her in two long strides. The hungry, demanding way about him set her heart suddenly racing in fear and desire. She’d barely managed to take a half step back before his arms circled her. Bruce crushed her to his chest, stealing her breath. His mouth covered hers. Her lips parted in surprise, allowing his tongue to drive between them. Feeling overwhelmed, yet safe, in his arms, Carolyn surrendered to him. Surrendered to the plundering kiss.

She wrapped her arms around his wide shoulders and held tightly to him, as much to keep him close as to keep her from sinking weakly to the floor. Besides the coolness of his body, nothing about him seemed the least bit ghost-like. The moisture from his mouth mingled with hers as their kiss deepened further. Even his chest expanded as he breathed. Most noticeably his thick cock, trapped in his trousers, jabbed into her stomach.

Her own body responded instantly to Bruce. Some magnetism he possessed snared her. There was no right or wrong, just sudden and intense need. Her sensitive nipples rubbed hard into his chest, sending echoes of pleasure through her. She wrapped one leg behind his calf, as if to prevent him from retreating from this commanding embrace. If not for his powerful arms supporting her back the force of his kiss alone would have knocked her down. There was barely an inch of the front of her body that did not mold perfectly into him. He had to know, from her responsiveness, that she would not resist him.

As he drew back from her mouth Carolyn leaned forward, reluctant to end the single most intense kiss of her life. Bruce tangled his fingers in her hair and gently forced her neck to arch back. Her swollen lips remained parted, ready and wanting more. “I’m sorry about this,” he murmured.

“About what? Kissing me?” Carolyn drew herself even more forcefully against him, showing him that she wanted more. Needed more. Certain beyond all logic and reason that Bruce could fulfill it, fulfill her, in a way nothing else could.

“No. About this…” He reached behind him and drew out a length of leather cord. Using her hair to control her, Bruce peeled her off him and turned her around. He forced her to lean against the basement wall. His hand moved from fisting in her hair to gripping the back of her neck. Bruce pressed his body against hers, pinning her to the wall.

Carolyn closed her eyes. Her body felt alive sandwiched between Bruce and the wall. Every place they touched felt incredible. Their thighs. His hips against her bottom. She knew from letters she’d found about Bruce’s occasion forays into bondage play. That had been one of the things that had specifically interested her in his history. He released her neck and both his hands found her wrists. With practiced skill he bound her wrists together with the leather cord. Whether or not she should have resisted him, she did not. Lightly she tugged on the bonds and a slow smile spread on her lips. Not too tight but definitely secure. She laughed softly, “Nice.”

Blue Ribbon Reviews gave "Summoned by Lust" 4.5 out of 5!

This Kinsmen Vampire romance has been just raking in the positive reviews. Feedback from readers has been fantastic. Everyone seems to really enjoy the intense relationship between Razor and Karma.

I am frequently asked when the next Kinsmen Vampire Romance will be published. I am hoping to see Shade's story published before the end of this year. (Shade first appears in "Raging Passions" which you can read for free on my homepage at http://www.AmandaSidhe.com )

In the meantime... "Beyond the Veil" comes out this month! 4/18/08 is the release date. It is a hot paranormal erotica. A sizzling ghost hunk, a sexy historian with a thing for bondage and a voodoo curse. How hot is that?


From the review of "Summoned by Lust":

"Karma knows one wrong move and her life will end at any moment. Having been summoned by the most notorious vampire in the Kinsman, she knows Razor will be a challenge. Her telepathic abilities have kept her alive thus far, but with Razor, the blood lust was raging out of control.

"Human servants rarely survive an encounter with Razor but Karma lives for the challenge. In every effort to stay alive and not become undead, Karma uses her telepathic powers to change the blood lust into physical lust, though she didn’t expect Razor to have his own telepathic abilities.

"Caught in a world where fear and lust are the only emotions, Karma must decide on who to trust. Though she’s only servicing Razor for a short time, and her clan expects her to return for the next case, Razor wants her to stay, even if that means killing to get his way.

"SUMMONED BY LUST gives the reader a fresh look into a complex vampire world. Karma is delightful and smart while Razor is the perfect bad-boy with a heart. I enjoyed Ms. Sidhe’s writing and look forward to her next enchanting tale.
