Payne, twin sister of Vishous, is cut from the same dark, warrior cloth as her brother: A fighter by nature, and a maverick when it comes to the traditional role of Chosen females, there is no place for her on the Far Side… and no role for her on the front lines of the war, either.
When she suffers a paralyzing injury, human surgeon Dr. Manuel Manello is called in to treat her as only he can- and he soon gets sucked into her dangerous, secret world. Although he never before believed in things that go bump in the night- like vampires- he finds himself more than willing to be seduced by the powerful female who marks both his body and his soul.
As the two find so much more than an erotic connection, the human and vampire worlds collide … just as a centuries old score catches up with Payne and puts both her love and her life in deadly jeopardy.

The Good: Anytime I get to see the BDB boys and girls is a good time. I was very happy to see Payne and Manny get their HEA and Specially to see Vishous get some closure. A lot of emotions in the air, my heart broke, I cried and enjoyed every minute!
The Bad: It felt more like V’s story than Payne and Manny`s and I felt like things got wrapped up too nicely for Payne and Manny. It felt too easy =/
The Smex: Payne and Manny were hot, but I have seen much hotter in this series =/

Coming on March 27th, 2012!
Cassandra Palmer recently defeated a god, which you'd think would buy a girl a little time off. But it doesn't work that way when your job description is Pythia-the world's chief clairvoyant. Cassie is busier than ever, trying to learn about her power, preparing for her upcoming coronation, and figuring out her relationship with the enigmatic sexy master vampire, Mircea.
But someone doesn't want Cassie to become Pythia, and is willing to go to any lengths to make sure the coronation ceremony never happens- including attacking her mother before Cassie is even born.

Thanks so much for tuning in and I’ll see you soon!
xoxo,
I can't believe I haven't read Lover Unleased yet. I'm not sure I'm mind if the story is more about V since I love him so much. You mentioning that makes me want to read it now. LOL
Thanks, hun.
Felt like V's story, well nothing new there. Why does she do that?
I do love me some V! Agree Payne and Manny's story seemed to wrap up too soon.
I need both these books. I'm woefully behind on the BDB and I think I need me a brother fix. Oh and Cassie. I love that series. I need to get back into it as well. Yep, I have some wishlisting to do! :)
@Missie
LOL I hope you enjoy it hon =D
@Blodeuedd
No idea =/ well, he did need some closure hehe
@Patti
exactly! =P
@Melissa
LOL Hope you love both! =D
I agree that it feels more like V's story. That disappointed me.
I love Karen Chance and this series. Thank you for sharing today.
I do agree, it did feel more like V's story, but it made sense to me. I still loved it. I didn't like that it took so long to get to Manny's and Payne's sex scene, but I still loved it. Manny is hot. Can't wait for Tohr's book although I am worried that his is the only one that doesn't have a female companion with him. What gives?!
I haven't read Karen Chance's books yet, but it has been on the wishlist. So hopefully soon *fingers crossed*. Great reviews hon, thank you :)
