HOT DEMON NIGHTS Prize Offering!

WINNER -  BLOG PRIZE - WINNER
CRYSTAL816
WINNER  WINNER WINNER WINNER WINNER WINNER
In honor of the May 1st release of HOT DEMON NIGHTS, my first Nocturne Cravings novella, I'm sponsoring a contest. I'm giving away a bag of my books, both from my ELLE JAMES pen name and my sexier MYLA JACKSON pen name.

All you have to do is leave a comment on this blog telling me what your favorite paranormal creature is. I'll select a winner on May 7th. Be sure to check back at my blog to see if you're the winner.

HOT DEMON NIGHTS isn't much of a stretch from either of my pen names. I've written paranormal for Harlequin Intrigue and Nocturne Bites and I've written paranormal stories as Myla Jackson.

What's different about HOT DEMON NIGHTS is that it's written in 1st person from the point of view of my kick-ass heroine KATYA DANSKE.

HOT DEMON NIGHTS



Tired of being taken for granted because of her looks, determined rooky Paranormal Investigative Agent teams with a sexy, womanizing demon to catch a zombie-generating fiend before he destroys Manhattan.

She didn't ask for the job, it landed in her lap, literally. Rookie cop and budding paranorm butt-kicker, KATYA DANSE, becomes a member of the Lower Manhattan order of the Paranormal Investigation Team (PIT). This elite group of multi-skilled law enforcers is tasked with keeping peace between the human and otherkin inhabitants of Manhattan. Katya never knew she had special skills until a flesh-eating zombie fell in her lap from the second story of her apartment building and she promptly lopped its head off. The rest is history. From rookie cop to PIT crew, she's sniffing out zombies and tracking down rogue demons, vampires and were-creatures for a living, counting the days until her next vacation away from NYC and the beings crawling out of the gutters. Nicked-named Iceman for her ability to cut a man's ego down in a single word, Katya has never met a demon she can trust. The last thing she needs is a smart-ass demon dogging her every step, especially one with mind-melding gazes and sex-appeal that could corrupt even the most heart-hardened PIT crew.

BLAISE MICHAELS, one of the few paranorms recruited as part of the select PIT crew, arranges to team with Katya to discover the source of a fresh outbreak of zombification and nip it in the bud. Not only is he interested in the challenge of awakening Katya's inner demon, he knows their adversary is dangerous, beyond even their initial indications. Forced into close proximity, Katya's and Blaise's investigation takes them into the darkest, dirtiest shadows of the Manhattan underworld, pitting their superhuman skills against a barrage of creatures fighting for survival and domination in a world most humans will never know exists. As their investigation intensifies, so too does the heat between them, fire melting ice, a combustible outcome sure to ensue.

My favorite paranormal creature is a wraith, I think they are creepier than a regular ghost!

LKF said...

I am a fan of vampires, who wouldn't want immortality, but I’m fascinated with shape shifters. Not sure if they fall in this category but that would be my vote.

Congrats on the new release ~ can't wait to read it! Hmmm...I'm going to have to say shifter, and lol, it's hard to choose between wolf and cat, they are both so sexy and awesome! I pretty much just love para's though...I read about 60% if not more para anymore...I find myself hunting down shifter stories if they're not jumping out at me. Yeah, I gotz it bad!

Reneec23 said...

This is hard, my favorite paranormal creature is usually whatever I'm currently reading, and right now I'm between books. So I guess I'll go with werewolf/shifter.

I always hate this question because I love all things paranormal. And, the less normal the better :) I think I have to say vampires because they were my first (If you don't count Dr. Who which I consider SciFi.) BTW, I think the prize is so awesome that it deserves all of the "prize"s you put around it. Thanks for the giveaway. jepebATverizonDOTnet

My favorite paranormal creatures have to be Vampires and shape shifters. I am a vampire junkie, but lately I have been reading books about various beasties that go bump in the night.

Victoria B. said...

I love werewolves, but not cursed ones - humans who can shift at will. I also love things that are Fae.

Tameka said...

My favorite paranormal would have to be a shapeshifter and I just love when they change into preditors. Wolfs, lions, tigers and bears oh my. Etc.... Lol

Oh, Greenduckie! Witches! I'm excited by the release of my first full-length Nocturne novel in November called WITCH'S INITIATION. It has witches and a Chimera, and it was so fun to write! Dark, sinister and wicked...

ELF said...

I have to say that shifters are my favorites since I love furry animals, especially those who purr. However, I don't like it when the change is painful. Thanks for the giveaway and congratulations on the new release!

Author Nikki Prince said...

Wow the book is going on my TBR for sure. Sounds great. Thank you for the contest.

Betty said...

Thanks for the great contest. I love all kinds of paranormal creatures, but I think my fav would have to be witches. The best thing about paranormal stories, is the creature/hero/heroine can be what ever and have any powers the author wants. That's why there is such a wide and great variety of different books to read. A true win-win for readers :)

Mary Preston said...

I have to say ANGELS. I love the whole concept.
