Wickedly perverse, scintillatingly pleasing!
Izzy and Lucas have been through quite the ordeal over the last year: chased down by demons, hunted by Dark angels, and sought after by a sadistic, gorgeous mother-in-law. Now they’re back, and there’s a lot of loose ends to tie up. Like the army of juiced up toddlers, the flamboyant villain, and the sociopathic Mother Dearest. Not to mention, it’s now their sole duty to seek the help of the seven kings in the In-Between realm, which sounds easier than it is.
Dawning follows Izzy as she is once again the woman of the hour, the woman who can bring the realms together, the woman with that special something-something that everyone, including her vindictive, crazy mother-in-law, are working tirelessly to capture. Being special never felt like so much work. Saving the world was never something Izzy planned to do, but she’ll have to if she doesn’t want the mortal world to end, or any others for that matter.

Wickedly perverse, scintillatingly pleasing!
And Izzy the Vampire Slayer was going on holiday to a scary realm with two hunks that loved to fight over her when she’d rather just stay here; fight vampires; eat donuts; save the world in a normal way rather than go on some realm-wide crusade to enlist the help of six kings that could very well imprison her, or worse.
They were awesome! Sci-fi awesome! Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon awesome! But they gave me pause. I didn’t know how my power would play into my attacks, and honestly, I was a little worried I might hurt the head honchos’ wife. I’m pretty sure that would result in a punishment of never-ending exercise. I’d be deprived of donuts for the rest of my life. I’d be banned from sweets. Wouldn’t even be allowed to look at them. I’d be tortured slowly with healthy food. Victor would turn me into a vegetarian against my will and make me eat vegetables for the rest of my days. I shivered at the prospects of my punishment
Dawning not only introduces new allies from the realm but also introduces Izzy to Victor’s new Cor Vocanti, Lilly and a new team member, Malakai, or Teddy Bear as Izzy likes to affectionately call him. With all the danger and intrigue, Izzy still finds time for plenty of sexy times with Lucas. Life wouldn’t be so worth living without the close calls with death and the love of your soul mate. A very engaging read, I couldn’t put Dawning down. While I know this series was originally supposed to be a trilogy it looks like Ms. West has at least one more in store for us in the Promiscus Guardians series. I sure hope we don’t have to wait too long for the next installment. If you are as enamored of good PNR as I am, you’re really going to enjoy these.

O Factor: Scorcher
My foot slipped on tile as I was pushed inside the steamed up glass box. The skin of my back pressed up against ice-cold granite, triggering my spine to curve as I gasped sharply.“That’s fucking cold!”
Lucas didn’t give me long to complain. His looming form, which was glistening with water over golden flesh and drool-worthy definition, was pressing my naked form forcibly into the cold granite, molding me to it. Water sprayed over us, wetting down our bodies as Lucas leaned all the way down, capturing my lips and sliding his hot tongue into my mouth. My hands grasped around his much-too-large biceps, eating into the flesh and anchoring myself to him.
He was so goddamn hot; I’d catch fire.
I slid along the surface of the wall as Lucas cupped the backside of my thighs and lifted me upwards in one fluid movement. My naked flesh fused with his, thighs clutching tightly to his trim, taut waist, clinging desperately.
My head fell back, knocking lightly against the hard stone wall, moan spilling from my lips. The delicious feeling between my legs, of my intoxicating beau’s hard length pressed against my moist one, flushed warmth into my lower belly. I rolled my hips, feeling the velvety, soft flesh of him and seeking more of it. I wanted him so badly I was panting for it. Moaning for it.
“Lucas,” I rasped as his muscled frame continued to imprison me to the wall.
Dark eyes shining with his increasing desire, Lucas restrained my joined wrists above my head, scraping his fingers down to my breast and kneading it with his large palm. His mouth dominated mine again, entwining our tongues in a heated battle that stole the air from my lungs. Then, he took my breast into his mouth, mouthing it roughly, then rolling the hard nub between his teeth. I inhaled sharply, head turning away as I panted greedily at the air, vision speckled with black dots at the intensity of his touch, his heat. His large hand coursed over the length of my abdomen. Fingers skimmed over my wet sex, teasing it in small, deliberate swipes.
“Fuck,” I exhaled, moaning when his fingers pressed harder, surer, sliding up inside of me and curling to shoot fire through my thighs. My legs shook as I fought to keep them grappling tightly to his hips, keeping me airborne. “Oh god, Lucas.”
Lucas swallowed my cries as he consumed my mouth again, ravaging me silly. “We are unfortunately short on time.” His voice was gruff as he pressed his wet forehead against mine. “I want to savor you. Taste you until I am satisfied. Pleasure you until you can think of little else. However, we do not know when the others may return.”

Lilly Hughes, pureblood witch and Guardian-in-training, has worked arduously the last three years to become the best Guardian in her class in hopes of securing a position on Lucas Easton’s team, the highest coveted position in the Guardians and the team her late mother was a member of. However, she suffers from a dangerously clumsy nature that threatens to make that dream just that, a dream.
Until she meets Victor, supervising angel to Lucas Easton’s team and active member on the Promiscus Guardian council. He’s an angel with a gentlemanly demeanor and incredible looks that immediately turns her bad luck for good. Or does he? His gentle nature is hiding a dark secret, a past that Lilly has been desperate to know since she was told of how her mother perished in a mission.
What is Victor’s connection to it? How can she control these subsurface desires for the one man who might hold the key to her future and the secret behind her mother’s death? Will it ultimately lead to tragedy?
I am a mother of three, living in California, USA. I have always been an avid reader of romance, particularly the paranormal genre. However, in the last few years, I have taken a serious interest in writing my own versions of these worlds. I write mainly romance, mainly featuring paranormal, supernatural, and vampires. All of my stories have an element of humor. I want to create a world that my readers can really immerse themselves into as the main protagonist.
