Kerrelyn Sparks is one of my most favorite authors. I came
across her book All I Want for Christmas is a Vampire a few years ago and was
immediately enthralled with her characters and her writing. Of course because
of my bad habit that this particular book was #5, so naturally I went back and
read the rest.
Kerrelyn’s Love at Stake series is more than just paranormal
romance there’s a lot of humor as well. It’s one of the reasons I love her
works. There have been many times I laugh out loud to myself and you should see
the looks I get from my husband. What’s better is the looks he gives when I insist
on telling him what I just read.
Now Kerrelyn has just released her 13th book in
the series Wild About You which is Howard the were-bear’s book. I just finished
reading it late last night and again she’s blown me away. I love that we
finally get to see more of Howard than just the big security guard who loves
bear claw donuts. We see as Elsa says….Handsome Howard...Hunky Howard...Hot Howard.... as well as a very sweet and humorous side.
Remember the post a couple weeks ago where I complained
about characters not coming back to the forefront hardly after their books.
Yeah, Kerrelyn made me eat my words. Shanna Draganesti plays a big part in this
book and she’s not just walking in and saying “hey” either. There is more
insight on her and how she’s dealing with now being “undead”.
Kerrelyn has taken her series from being, in the beginning,
vampire romance and has shaped it with many other paranormal beings. She’s done
this with grace. At no point have I ever gone “this is too far fetched” . Yes I
have read books and thought that. That the author has gone out of their “world”.
Kerrelyn has maintained a great world and introduced new aspects without
putting a wrinkle in it.
I won’t give spoilers, sorry but you can read the synopsis on
her website http://www.kerrelynsparks.com/books_current.html
but I will tell you Kerrelyn never disappoints. If you haven’t read Howard’s
book get to it. And if you haven’t had the pleasure of reading her Love at
Stake series…….what are you waiting for?! Hurry and catch up!!! *smiles*
Now I’m just going to sit here and wait for Mikhail’s story
which is in a novella called Vampires Gone Wild and will be released February
12, 2013. Ok I’m waiting……………is it February yet???
