"You go your way and I'll go mine. I'll look for your boys in blue to fish your body out of the Aneirin River in a couple of days."

He shook his head. "That won't happen."

In Maggie Stiefvater's Shiver, Grace and Sam found each other.  Now, in Linger, they must fight to be together. For Grace, this means defying her parents and keeping a very dangerous secret about her own well-being. For Sam, this means grappling with his werewolf past . . . and figuring out a way to survive into the future. Add into the mix a new wolf named Cole, whose own past has the potential to destroy the whole pack.  And Isabelle, who already lost her brother to the wolves . . . and is nonetheless drawn to Cole.

At turns harrowing and euphoric, Linger is a spellbinding love story that explores both sides of love -- the light and the dark, the warm and the cold -- in a way you will never forget.

Comes out in stores everywhere July 20th. Pre-order here.

Enter to win an advanced review copies of LINGER, Sisters Red, The Dead-Tossed Waves, and The Replacement on Maggie's blog.

My Summary:
Lore is an enslaved assassin. In order to end his enslavement, and save his sisters life Lore has to complete one last kill. The only problem is the target is protected by an earthbound angel. Idess, just happens to be the earthbound angel that is protecting Lore's target, and she's going to do her job no matter what. The sooner she can ascend into heaven the better she believes she'll be.

Right off the bat I fell in love with Lore, a badass with a soft side that even he didn't want to deal with. My type of hero. I'm not going to lie, when I started reading Ecstasy Unveiled and the first scene was a sex scene, I wasn't too sure where this book was going to go, or if I would even like it. I like some sexxin' but right off the bat it kind of scared me. However, it was that sex scene that really introduced me into the nitty gritty of Lore. Plus, the praying mantis like demon ... heck yes!

Idess as a character was a kick ass chick. I loved her as well. Actually, I loved all the characters that I met in Ecstasy Unveiled. And even though it's part of a series, I didn't feel as if I missed anything massive, in terms of plot, by not reading the rest of the series. However, I am going to go back and read the series in order, because I want to know about the other characters.

Ecstasy Unveiled, was an energetic steamy read. I would gladly recommend this to anyone who likes paranormal romance, with a kick.

Just wanted to let you all know that I am out of the hospital and recovering nicely. I know I am behind on quite a few posts right now, so I'm hoping on taking this weekend to get everything in order and hopefully all my posts will be up this week. I'm sorry for the delay and all that :)

Thanks for all the warm wishes and such, it really meant a lot to me!

Hey, all. I wanted to let you know that Jess will be MIA for a little bit. She is in the hospital recovering from unexpected surgery. She's doing well, but she won't be back home for another day (or so). She knows she owes posts (maybe one for a blog tour?) and promises to post them as soon as she can. -Drea

After weeks of avoidance - mainly to piss off his boss - it was time to take his punishment like a man. Well, a half-man, half-incubus.
