I Want a Jackson Teague for Christmas: Delilah Devlin's Five Ways 'til Sunday (Delta Heat, #1)
Five Ways 'til Sunday by Delilah Devlin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Jackson Teague is one of those erotic heroes who transcends sexy books. A man who knows what he wants, loves a flawed and human woman, and will do anything he can to keep her.
This isn't a vanilla Prince Charming tale, but a story that will make your toes curl with pleasure. It's not called Five Ways 'til Sunday for nothing, and if you aren't into menage, this book is definitely not your cuppa tea.
Delilah writes her Delta Heat men with delicious detail, and her erotic scenes are blistering hot. This is not your grandma's romance novel, unless granny's very, very openminded. After you read a couple of Devlin's novels, your lover may be at his doctor's office begging for a script of little blue pills...

Delilah Devlin's Fournicopia (Delta Heat, #2), Doesn't Disappoint!
Fournicopia by Delilah Devlin
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Delilah Devlin writes sex scenes that are white-hot and read like erotica, not a cluster of cliched body parts and phrases whipped together. If you aren't fanning yourself and drinking a tall glass of something cold after reading her books, you must be dead.

Review of Night Pleasures
Night Pleasures by Sherrilyn Kenyon
My rating: 2 of 5 stars
This book ended up on my Nook as a special offering, and was forgotten. I love book covers, and I kept putting off reading the ebook because the cover was cheesy, as are most of the Dark Hunter covers.
Having lived in New Orleans and the surrounding area for many, many years, it intrigued me that this book was set in the area. Unfortunately there's very little depth to the settings, almost as if someone visited and said "hey, I'll make this a setting of my book" and left. I found myself rolling my eyes over the use of swamps and catamarans, alligators, Cajuns, and other things.
I found the dialogue predictable, repetitive, and cheesy, and the narrative jumped about so many times I found myself going back to see if my ebook had jumped several pages. Nope.
The characters were rather cartoonish at times, and the references to B movies distracting.
Here's another thing. It's time to go back and release the book after it's been updated. Palm Pilots, PDA, VCR's all date the story.
How this series has survived into so many books defies logic, but then what doesn't interest one reader can be catnip to another.
