NEWSLETTER SIGN UP FORM

We (my best friend Jen, and I [Michelle]) created this website to have a 'home' for LITERAL ADDICTION, our Paranormal Book Club, to give members a place to check in and see what's up in-between discussion gatherings.  We simply wanted to share our passion of reading and all things Paranormal with like-minded individuals, meet some new people, and make some new friends. 

That was 2 years ago, and we're SO much more than just a Book Club now! :-)

We definitely accomplished our goal of sharing our passion with like-minded individuals, and with a fanbase of over 1,300 people now, we have met some amazing folks and have made some incredible friends. 

While we're not able to do the 'book club' thing any longer because of our amazing growth, we do share tons of book recommendations and discussions over on our Facebook pages.  We also Review books and provide feedback that way for anyone who's interested.  

We promote for authors both new and established thus allowing readers to learn more about their favorite authors and find some new amazing authors as well, and we're always running fun and creative contests for different things book and/or paranormal related.  

I also offer custom Bookish Fangear and Bookthong design and order/sale as 'Chelly Belle Designs' for readers who are fangirls like me. :)

If you are a reader who is interested in becoming a part of our wonderful literary family, and/or an author wanting to join forces, please contact me via Email, Facebook, or Twitter.

As always... HAPPY READING!

Guest Web Event with:

Erin McCarthy

Hello everyone!  LITERAL ADDICTION and Book Monster Reviews are honored to welcome Erin McCarthy to our sites today!  

Erin is a NY Times bestselling author who sold her first book in 2002 and has since written more than 38 novels and novellas in the Paranormal, Contemporary Romance, and Young Adult genres. 

A RITA award finalist and an American Library Association winner of the Reluctant Young Reader Award, Erin is a member of RWA, Horror Writers Associating and Ohioana. 

Erin’s library of literary excellence includes the FAST TRACK, VEGAS VAMPIRES, NY GIRLFRIENDS, BOWLING FRIENDS, CUTTERSVILLE, and SEVEN DEADLY SINS series, as well as many single titles and Anthology contributions.

We’re here to help her celebrate her entire amazing backlist, but also to promote her upcoming releases, “Jacked Up”, FAST TRACK book #6, which will be released on 6/5/12, and “The Fangover”, a collaboration with Kathy Love, that will be released on 11/6/12 (we’re actually hoping to have the 2 of them back together to promote that one even more).

For those of you new to Erin’s work, we thought we’d give you the synopsis of the first book in each of the series listed above as well as the blurb for the upcoming FAST TRACK novel to peak your interests. 

FAST TRACK series

“Flat-Out Sexy”, FAST TRACK #1

Independent single mother Tamara Briggs wanted to find a new, sexy, no-strings-attached man-just not one as young as NASCAR driver Elec Monroe. But he sure does get her heart racing. And after she’s tricked into a blind date with him, Tamara gives in to her passion. Things screech to a halt, though, when he asks to meet her children. Whatever happened to wham-bam-thank-you ma’am? Suddenly Tamara has to decide how much risk she’s willing to take to experience the power of true love.

“Jacked Up”, FAST TRACK #6

COMING 6/5/12!

She’s holding tight. He’s hanging loose.

Eve Monroe is a stock-car PR pro who puts her career first—until an on-track wardrobe malfunction reveals more than the sexy smile of her race-car brother’s jack-man, Nolan Ford. The video’s become an internet sensation, and it’s Eve’s job to calm the sponsors and put a spin on the unexpected exposure. It may be purely a public relations job, but now that Eve’s seen what’s under Nolan’s crew suit, it’s gotten a little personal—and after a few dates she has Nolan pretty revved up. If only she’d learn to relax and enjoy it…

And they both have the same drive.

Nolan’s sure that the spontaneous birthday bash he’s throwing for Eve in Las Vegas should loosen her up. It does more than that. Somewhere between cocktails and a smoking-hot motel-room derby, Eve and Nolan wake up hitched, thanks to a post-sex-high detour to a Vegas chapel. A hangover marriage to a virtual stranger isn’t good for anyone’s image, so Eve plans to play the happy wife long enough to satisfy the press, and then quietly part ways. Now all she has to do is convince her new personal jack-man. But Nolan has plans of his own…

VEGAS VAMPIRES series

“High Stakes”, VEGAS VAMPIRES #1

From the USA Today bestselling author, a vampire-meets-girl story set in the city that never sleeps-except during daylight.

He's a bloodsucking freak of nature. But, unlike other politicians, Ethan Carrick is actually a nice guy. Not to mention a very hot, wealthy, casino-owning vampire. It's an election year for vampires, which means he'll first have to escape his opponent's hit men. Then he'll have to find a suitable First Lady, preferably here in Vegas.

Brittany Baldizzi fits the bill. She's smart, pretty- and sweeter than a glass of diabetic O-Negative. But her protective sister Alexis steps in with a message for Ethan: Bite me. It's then that he realizes it's the sexy, no-nonsense Alexis who raises his stake. And as much as she denies it, Alexis wouldn't mind a romp in the coffin with him. But can a mere mortal, even one who risks her life for him, make a centuries-old, womanizing vampire feel something entirely new?

NY GIRLFRIENDS series

“The Pregnancy Test”, NY GIRLFRIENDS #1

Ordinarily, I'm a fan of pink-lovely colour, does smashing things for the complexion. But not when it's the bright, glaring stripe staring back at me on the pregnancy test. Then, pink is the colour of major oops, of morning sickness, of boyfriends who seemed decent but now are part of some Jerk Witness Protection Program.

Still, I've got a few things going for me-bitter humour, a divine right to eat till I'm the size of Marlon Brando, and good friends who've managed to get me a job interview with one Damien Sharpton: in need of a personal assistant, and some say, a good, swift kick in the arse. If you want to make a lasting impression, by all means, toss your cookies in your future boss's wastebasket, which is located directly between his excruciatingly sexy legs.

Apparently, Mr. Gorgeous-But-Unbearably-Anti-Social must like personal assistants who violate his trash can, because I got the job. And if I can avoid him via text messaging for the next seven months of health insurance, everything will be just fine. Except that he's just asked-no, insisted-that I go with him on a business trip to the Caribbean. Gulp. Ordinarily, this would be cause for celebration. Ordinarily, I'd shave my legs, pack my bikini, revel in day-glo drinks and my seething lust for Mr. Swarthy-And-Secretive. But there's nothing ordinary about this situation...which means it could be absolutely extraordinary...

 

BOWLING FRIENDS series

“Bad Boys Online”, BOWLING FRIENDS #1

From cybersex partners to hackers gone awry, each of McCarthy’s three fiery tales involve couples who interact with computers and find love in the process. In “Hard Drive,” Kindra is mortified when her coworker and secret crush, Mack, catches her cavorting online with her cybersex lover. But when Mack offers to show her the benefits of love the old-fashioned way, Kindra realizes what she has been missing. In “Press Any Key,” it seems like Jared can’t stand his sexy coworker Candy. But beneath his scowl, he is deeply attracted to her sweet ways. “User Friendly” finds Halley reluctantly turning to her best friend, Evan, for help with a hacker. They both have feelings for each other but are afraid to act on them until the heat of the hacker chase finds them giving in to their lust and discovering the perfect mate in each other.

 

CUTTERSVILLE series

“A Date with the Other Side”, CUTTERSVILLE #1

In the three years Shelby Tucker has been leading tour groups through the haunted houses of Cuttersville, Ohio, she's never caught a glimpse of a ghost. But she does get pretty startled when she waltzes into the bedroom of a supposedly vacant cottage and stumbles upon a sexy, hot-blooded, naked man.

This is no ghost, though. This guy is solid as a rock. Bad boy Boston Macnamara is renting the so-called haunted cottage...and he's about to shake things up in Cuttersville. At least for Shelby, who's never been so hot and bothered before. And she may find herself haunted with desire if some feisty matchmaking spirits have their way.


SEVEN DEADLY SINS series

“My Immortal”, SEVEN DEADLY SINS #1

In the late eighteenth century, plantation owner Damien du Bourg struck an unholy bargain with a fallen angel: an eternity of inspiring lust in others for the gift of immortality. But when Marley Turner stumbles upon Damien's plantation searching for her missing sister, for the first time in two hundred years it's Damien who can't resist the lure of a woman. But his past sins aren't so easily forgotten-or forgiven.

We know, they sound incredible.  Well… they ARE incredible!!  Now that we have you hunting them down from your favorite book-seller, what do you say we learn some more about the author behind these fabulous titles?

Stacey Kennedy's "Beg for It" cover has been unveiled!! 

BEG FOR IT

Pact of Seduction Book Two

Publisher: Loose Id

Release date: May 29, 2012

Website: www.staceykennedy.com

The Pact of Seduction has one rule—fulfill your ultimate fantasy. Bella’s problem, she can’t live up to her vow. But her failure spins events that lead her into unknown territory. Kole, a Dom at the sex club Castle Dolce Vita, wasn’t part of her fantasy, but he’s about to show her he should have been.

Kole is more than willing to introduce Bella to BDSM since he’s held an interest in her for some time. But the feisty woman isn’t easily tamed and her strong personality proves to be difficult. While she might be determined to keep him at a distance, Kole has other ideas. He won’t allow her to shut him out.

A pact between best friends brought them together, emotional barriers tear them apart. Kole skillfully reminds Bella through pleasure and punishment that she is now his submissive, and her place is under his command. 

In celebration of the plethora of incredible releases coming out in the month of May, we're holding an A-MAY-ZING RELEASE contest for a prize pack consisting of misc books and swag from over 20 authors who are gifting us with new reads in the month of May!!
