Excitable Gals by Leigh Ellwood

Leading Lady
Cult TV star Dina Joseph doesn't mind working the sci-fi convention circuit, so long as every day of signing autographs ends with a night of out-of-this-world sex with a well-hung Mission: Jupiter fan. Naturally she's eager to take on two "elves" with phasers set to stunning, but when Kray and Lane reveal they actually are elves--come from an alternate universe to claim the missing link in their triad--Dina must decide between the adoration of many in this world or the eternal passion of two in a different reality.

Excitable
Nobody seems to believe Jenna McCoy's claim that her boss, Dina Joseph, was kidnapped. Private detective Jeremy Vanderkellen couldn't care less, either. He's concerned about becoming Head Wolf of his pack. When he's passed over he threatens to tear Toronto apart, but his superiors have a way of taming the beast. So Jeremy must learn to respect others as a good leader should, and find a love to sustain him. But, can the lovely Jenna be consoled by a selfish, obnoxious man who transforms during the full moon into a vicious, fang-bearing...Chihuahua?

Publisher's Note: This book contains explicit sexual content, graphic language, and situations that some readers may find objectionable: Anal play/intercourse, ménage (m/f/m).

Working the TBR



No one is surprised when feisty Delilah Dickinson opens her own literary travel agency in Atlanta after her divorce. But during her first group's tour of an old plantation modeled after Tara from Gone With the Wind, she finds herself in the middle of a murder mystery-and everyone knows death is not so good for business. So, with God as her witness, Delilah vows to find the killer.

Things start quietly enough: a visit to the quaint apartment where Margaret Mitchell wrote her great opus, then a stop at the Gone with the Wind Movie Museum, and a hearty Southern luncheon at Mary Mac's Tea Room that will surely guarantee her new clients will never be hungry again. What could possibly go wrong?

Quite a lot, it turns out. During an overnight stay at a lovely recreation of Tara-complete with a full cast of actors-things start to really go south. The actor playing Clark Gable playing Rhett Butler is found dead, apparently the victim of a fatal dose of Southern in-hospitality. Before anyone can even think "Where shall I go? What shall I do?" the police have the place under lockdown, insisting everyone remain at the mansion while they investigate.

Delilah finds herself taking over the investigation when their #1 suspect is her son-in-law Luke-the not-so-bright husband of her daughter, Melissa. But life starts imitating art when the actors begin taking their roles a little too seriously-believing they actually are Ashley Wilkes, Scarlett O'Hara, and Melanie. Next stop: Sunset Boulevard.

With all the drama of Margaret Mitchell's epic story suddenly coming to alarming life, Delilah's only chance to head off a not-so-Civil War is to track down and confront the deranged murderer. But shemust move quickly and very quietly, or risk becoming the next victim of a killer-who frankly doesn't give a damn..

An Attack of Random

First I'd just like to say: Dude, it's totally Monday.

Okay, now that that's out of the way, I'm struck by random observations this morning.

--Running late on a Monday is never good.

--When your four-year-old says he doesn't want to go to school, the next fourteen years are only going to get worse (in that respect).

--Said four-year-old plus backpack plus lunch box plus winter coat equals HEAVY. And yes, I carry him from the parking lot to the cafeteria where his class meets every morning.

--Doors without portholes or windows leading into hallways should not be allowed in schools. Either said four-year-old or I have been hit by wildly flinging and fast opening doors at least three times since August.

--Teachers, assistants and school employees should not wildly fling doors without portholes or windows leading into hallways open.

--"Rules of the road" should be observed in school hallways. No diving down to the inside corner for better position. Not NASCAR, I swear. Hugging square corners doesn't improve your time from the cafeteria to your classroom.

--Hall monitors should, you know, monitor the "rules of the road" and hugging square corners and third graders holed up outside the bathrooms.

--Giggling children are always up to no good.

--PTA members on bus duty should speak to everyone, or at least speak when spoken to. Nothing like having your "Good morning!" met with silence, only to hear So-and-So speak to the person behind you.

--Little old ladies who can barely see over the steering wheel and the interstate fast lane do not mix.

Sophie's Secret by Michelle Cary

Dumped by another boyfriend, Sophie Green decides it's time to make some changes in her life. Since her relationships have left her sexually frustrated, she concludes her horrible encounters with men must mean she's doing something wrong. Obviously, a weekend of uninhibited sex is the answer to her problem, isn't it? Sophie turns to roommate and friend Logan Rutledge for help.

Logan's had a thing for Sophie for years, but a 'hands off' promise to her brother caused him to steer clear. Until now. The mere thought of another man pleasuring Sophie has Logan putting not only his friendship, but his heart, on the line to help her. He knows he can never be the husband/father figure she's looking for, but if its no-holds barred sex she wants then he's her man.

Agreeing to keep their tryst from her brother, Logan whisks Sophie away for a romantic weekend at the beach. Recruiting their friend Reese, Logan introduces Sophie to a hedonistic new world, complete with silk scarves for bondage and fruit as foreplay. When an accident threatens Sophie's life, Logan realizes how much he wants their relationship to be more than one clandestine encounter. Keeping their secret from her brother is one thing, convincing Sophie he's Mr. Right is another.

Publisher's Note: This book contains explicit sexual content, graphic language, and situations that some readers may find objectionable: Anal play/intercourse, bondage, domination, ménage (m/f/m), spanking.
