Bradford Round Up!
Posted in Romance on July 31st, 2009 by Cynthia Eden
Some of my Bradford sisters have new releases out, and I just wanted to take some time to pimp their books. 🙂
First up, Shelli Stevens (oh, my touring buddy, congrats on your release!):
Blurb:
After years as a slave to the pleasures of the powerful, Talia knows how to make a man mad with lust. But her pleasure counts for nothing—until a handsome, ruthless stranger appears. Ryder dares to look at her… to touch her… to awake in her a desire she’s never imagined. When he kidnaps her to learn her secrets, Talia vows not to let her passion take control. But soon she discovers that her captor’s intense gaze and searching hands can perform their own kind of interrogation, a sweet torture she finds impossible to resist…

Then I’ve got Jess Granger‘s anticipated release:
Blurb:
In a universe torn apart by civil war, a warrior and a slave must fight for their freedom, for their lives, and for a love that may destroy them both…
After five years behind enemy lines, Captain Cyani is ready to retire to her homeworld of Azra as one of the Elite — the celibate warrior sisterhood that rules the planet. But first she must complete one final mission to rescue her fellow Union soldiers. The last thing she expects to find is a prisoner, chained and beaten — but radiating feral power and an unbroken spirit…
Soren is a Byralen, an enigmatic people who possess a unique hormone that they use to bond with their mates — and that is sold as a sexual narcotic in the shadow trade. For years, he has endured torture at the hands of his captors as they leeched his very essence. The last thing he expects is to be freed from slavery by a beautiful warrior woman with radiant blue eyes.
Driven by her rigid sense of honor, Cyani frees Soren even though her life hinges upon the success of her mission. But after so many years in bondage, his hormones are so unbalanced that he will die if he does not bond with a woman. Can the lovely but distant warrior be the woman he needs to survive, or will the forbidden bond destroy them?

And Lauren Dane has a sexy tale for your reading pleasure:
This book was named a Top Pick in the August issue of RT (go, Lauren!), and here’s part of the review snippet: “In a word, this book is amazing. All three characters are magnetic and thoroughly realistic. They’re expertly woven into a roller-coaster story that will have you crying one moment, aroused the next and laughing with glee at each triumphant step along the way.”
Makes you want to read the book, doesn’t it? You can check out an excerpt here.

Michelle Pillow has a new release, too:
Great cover, Michelle!! And there’s a wonderful excerpt up here.
And the final Bradford author with a new release? The very talented Elisabeth Naughton.
And just take a look at this teaser:
His past tore them apart. Her lies thrust them back together. Now a killer’s out for revenge, but the biggest threat for both may just be the heat they thought they’d already lost…
Oh, I want to read this!!! STOLEN HEAT is the second book in Elisabeth’s “Stolen” series, and I must say, I sure did enjoy the first installment!!!
