Naughty Nick By Louisa Bacio “I like Nick,” an editor-friend recently told me. And you know what? I really like Nick, too.  First introduced in book 2, The Vampire, The Witch & The Werewolf: Chains of Silver, Nick is a vampire hunter thrown into close proximity with the world of the Others, paranormal creatures. He’s grown up with Silver, his best friend’s younger sister, and he’s faced with sudden un-brotherly feelings toward her. When Silver finds her blood brother, Trevor, she discovers some hidden genetic make-up in the family. She’s a werewolf, who’ll first shift after reaching her sexual maturity.  Nick takes the changes in stride, surprisingly. He’s one of those characters that follows me around on a daily basis. While he seems so real, it’s been almost impossible to find an image to represent his physical description: “His creamy mocha-toned skin contrasted with his long, blond dreads and pale brown eyes that appeared catlike. He wore a white tank top, and as he turned slightly to the side to check out a disturbance, Silver admired the pointed stake tattooed on his shoulder. The only accessory definitely out of place was the ghastly black fanny pack around his waist.” (from Chains of Silver)   While creating the book trailer, the creative artist Lex Valentine used an image that more represents his aura/personality than strict appearance. In my current release, A Threesome Wedding Adventure, Nick falls a bit into the background, but continues to show different facets of his personality.  Here’s a short passage from later in the book: “Do you have any weapons in that bag of yours?” Nick finally asked, breaking the silence. Trevor shook his head. He didn’t feel like explaining to Nick why he packed so light. “I didn’t think we’d need anything. Come on, we’re a tough vampire and a werewolf.” “Going up against the Devil, man?” “We know Dr. Black’s in custody, right? So odds are that Mirabella’s up there all by herself, waiting to be saved.” “By the likes of us?” Trevor held his arms out, palms facing upward. “Think of Shrek, the reluctant hero. We fit the part well. We may not be knights in shining armor, but we’re what she’s got.” “True dat, my man, true dat.” Nick held his fist out to Trevor, and they knocked them together. “So what’s the plan?” As you can tell, his dialogue has grown strong, and he stands out. You know what this means, though? Oh, yes, I can’t leave him alone … yet. Currently, I’m working on book 4, The Wolfe Pack, and Nick plays heavily in the story. Let me tell you, he’s got some growing up to do. The Vampire, The Witch & The Werewolf: A Threesome Wedding Adventure  By Louisa Bacio Planning a wedding can be stressful and crazy-making.  Planning three weddings at the same time? That’s insanity. While The Vampire, The Witch & The Werewolf embark on a nuptial excursion, Silver & Nick hold down the home fortress in New Orleans.  And as if everyone doesn’t have enough to deal with, the Voodoo King comes calling with a magic elixir that diminishes sexual inhibitions and an eerie quiet spreads across the French Quarter. Life as they know it may never be the same. The threesome is forced to put off honeymoon bliss in order to banish the demons of their past, and embrace the uncertainty of the future. Available via Ravenous Romance, Amazon and other eRetailers. Thanks so much for hosting me today. So tell me, what do you look for in a hero? Can a character sometimes be too unique?  Drop in for a visit at http://www.louisabacio.com   Facebook Twitter http://louisabacio.blogspot.com http://louisabacio.com

Willing Sacrifice by Cree Walker

The sequel to ‘Whisper on a Scream’, the paranormal, shape shifting erotic book by Cree Walker, ‘WILLING SACRIFICE’… is due out on the 17th July. It will be available from the Naughty Nights Press EStore and all good ebook sites. Synopsis: Sugar Coon is the widowed wife of Jack Coon, her werewolf pack’s former Alpha. After having died because of a long forced separation caused by the Elder’s Council he hasn’t giving up their ‘forever and ever’ just yet. Werewolves mate for life and normally when a mate dies the other is soon to follow, but Sugar is different from the rest. She is a natural Born Werewolf just like Jack, however, for unknown reasons she doesn’t die within a year of Jack’s death. Sometimes she wishes she had. The haunting from her dead husband starts out as gentle whispers and soft caresses on her skin, but soon as he grows stronger his real intentions are not easy to mistake. He wants what every werewolf wants – a forever mate – and if Sugar won’t die naturally, Jack is willing to take whatever steps necessary to bring them together again. The Elder Coon, Jack’s Grandmother, summons Sugar in an effort to overthrow its newest Alpha, Robert. For Sugar, meeting Robert isn’t exactly love at first sight, but she does feel drawn to him. A part of her thinks it’s just her bad taste in men. Sugar is confused as to her role the Elder’s plan to overthrow this new Alpha. She’s wondering if it’s even such a good idea. The Elder Coon was fond of using Jack’s pack as a bargaining tool to control him, forcing him to become her own personal weapon of mass destruction when things weren’t going her way politically. Trial and error unravels the web of lies and deceit the Elders have woven in order to control her, and attempt to control Robert to further their future conquests. Having decided they both want the same thing they find themselves on the same side when it comes to taking out the main source of the werewolves problems, the Elders. They also find themselves falling in love, something that terrifies Sugar since losing her last mate. Sugar discovers she has a bargaining chip to play with when she speaks to a witch about a little poltergeist problem. Jack isn’t a ghost – or he’s not just a ghost – he’s a Hellhound. It seems that’s where all the bad werewolves go when they die. Hellhounds become servants to the Reapers who handle them in the afterlife, using them as retrievers for the hard to handle spirits headed south. This particular Reaper is willing to help Sugar take out the Elders if she’ll help him trap Jack, but there is an additional cost to the deal. Sugar is pregnant with twin girls from separate fathers. One is Robert’s and the other is Jack’s, it seems Jack had one final wish as well. The freedom of the werewolves has cost Sugar greatly and though she’s made several willing sacrifices in the name of leadership and love, she’s made one she is not willing to forgive herself for. The Reaper has made a request that Sugar love and care for both of her daughters equally, but one day he will return and chose one of them as a final cost for his part in their deal.
