Another Wednesday and another wishlist =) I have so many books I want right now hehe. So, I try to come up with a good mix of series I haven't read yet, series I have been following for a while and new series on my roster =)
Shades of Midnight is the 7th Book on Lara Adrian's Midnight Breed Series. I love this series and the mythology Lara has created for her Vamps =) The structure of the series is similar to the Black Dagger Brotherhood by J.R. Ward. Each book follows a main couple
and their journey into their HEA (Happly Ever After). However, I think that similarities apart, I find that The Midnight Breed Books have found a very special place in my heart. I can't wait for Kade's story in this book =) Besides, the cover is so hawt and is in the colors of my Homeland =P
Release Date: December 29th 2009
Summary:
"In a frozen wilderness steeped
in darkness, the lines between good and evil, lover and enemy, are never black or
white but drawn in Shades of Midnight.
Something inhuman is stalking the frigid Alaskan wilds, leaving unspeakable carnage in its wake. For bush pilot Alexandra
Maguire, the killings stir memories of a horrific event she witnessed as a child and evoke in her the inexplicable sense of otherness she has long felt within herself but never fully understood . . . until a darkly seductive stranger with secrets of his own enters her world.
Sent from Boston on a mission to investigate the savage attacks and stop the slaughter, vampire warrior Kade has his own reasons for returning to
the frigid, forbidding place of his birth. Haunted by a secret shame, Kade soon realizes the stunning truth of the threat he faces–a threat that will jeopardize the fragile bond he has formed with the courageous, determined young woman who arouses his deepest passions and most primal hungers. But in
bringing Alex into his world of blood and darkness, Kade
must confront both his own personal demons and the even greater evil that could destroy all he holds dear."
The Midnight Breed Series:
(in order)
My next Wishlist pick is the 2nd book in The Persephone Alcmedi series by Linda Robertson, Hallowed Circle. I bought the eBook for the the 1st book, Vicious Circle, on a whim and really enjoyed Persephone's world and journey. This week the Author has announced that there will be 4 books in the series so far. That makes me happy =)
Release Date: December 29th 2009
Summary from Book 1:
"A girl's got to do what a girl's got to do....
Being a witch doesn't pay the bills, but Persephone Alcmedi gets by between reading Tarot cards, writing her syndicated newspaper column, and kenneling werewolves in the basement when the moon is full -- even if witches aren't supposed to mingle with wolves. She really reaches the end of her leash, though, when her grandmother gets kicked out of the nursing home and Seph finds herself in the doghouse about some things she's written. Then her werewolf friend Lorrie is murdered...and the high priestess of an important coven offers Seph big money to destroy the killer, a powerful vampire named Goliath Kline. Seph is a tough girl, but this time she bites off more than she can chew. She needs a little help from her friends -- werewolf friends. One of those friends, Johnny, the motorcycle-riding lead singer for the techno-metal-Goth band Lycanthropia, has a crush on her. And while Seph has always been on edge around this 6'2" leather-clad hunk, she's starting to realize that although their attraction may be dangerous, nothing could be as lethal as the showdown that awaits them."
Book 2:
"Exciting urban fantasy featuring Persephone Alcmedi, a modern-day witch with a sexy rock'n'roll werewolf
boyfriend."
The Persephone Alcmedi Series:

#4 - Arcane Circle
Last but not least is the 1st in The Demonica Series by my *xara (Portuguese word for someone that has the same name as you) Larissa Ione. Pleasure Unbound. This series looks amazing and I gotta get to reading it ASAP.
Summary:
"In a place where ecstasy can cost you your life . . .
She's a demon-slayer who hungers for sensual pleasure-but fears it will always be denied her. Until Tayla Mancuso lands in a hospital run by demons in disguise, and the head doctor, Eidolon, makes her body burn with unslakable desire. But to prove her ultimate loyalty to her peers, she must betray the surgeon who saved her life.
Two lovers will dare to risk all.
Eidolon cannot resist this fiery, dangerous woman who fills him with both rage and passion. Not only is she his avowed enemy, but she could very well be the hunter who has been preying upon his people. Torn between his need for the truth and his quest to find his perfect mate before a horrific transformation claims him forever, Eidolon will dare the unthinkable-and let Tayla possess him, body and soul..."

I really like the 'Demonica' series. They're fun, sexy reads with strong Alpha males - pretty hard not to love.
I read Adrian's 'Breed' series before I discovered the Blackdagger Brotherhood. So I really loved them to begin with (Rio is my favorite, 'Midnight Rising' was so good!) but when I found JR Ward I kind of tossed the Breed series aside.
I totally agree with you Larissa Ione and Lara Adrian are two of my favorites! I enjoy Alexandra Ivy as well as J.R Ward and have been lucky enough to interview 3 out of 4. Your Blogs ROCK!
*sniffs* You guys are all so awesome. Totally made my week! :)
Happy Thanksgiving to everyone who celebrates it, and have a fantastic weekend to everyone else!
oh, I love love love Lara Adrian's series. I really need to start Larissa Ione's - I just need more time in the day! LOL I think after I finish Lords of the Underworld I will do Ione's.
