I actually saw this idea over at Anna Kathryn’s blog as part of her Saturday Salacious Suggestions. Since I started to write my new Willow Creek Series, I haven’t had much time to read and I love getting lost in new worlds and adventures but finding those adventures isn’t very easy when there are literally thousands of books out there. So, on Tuesdays, I’ll be giving you book recs…of MY favorite books but, there’s a twist….
In the comments, I’m going to let other authors Rec their OWN books to you so, if you’re a author, and would like to suggest one of your books to my readers, look to the bottom of this page for the rules.
But first…my Book rec for today.
Author: C.L. Wilson
Title: Lord of the Fading Lands (Tairen Soul #1)
Blurb:
Once he had scorched the world.
Once he had driven back overwhelming darkness.
Once he had loved with such passion, his name was legend…
TAIREN SOUL
Now a thousand years later, a new threat calls him from the Fading Lands, back into the world that had cost him so dearly. Now an ancient, familiar evil is regaining its strength, and a new voice beckons him–more compelling, more seductive, more maddening than any before.
As the power of his most bitter enemy grows and ancient alliances crumble, the wildness in his blood will not be denied. The tairen must claim his truemate and embrace the destiny woven for him in the mists of time.

The Lawman – Historical Western Romance
On the run from her ex-lover…Jilted by a no-show husband…And now mistaken for a whore in the Diamond Back Saloon…Abigail Thornton doesn’t think things can get any worse. That is until a single slap to a man’s face starts a barroom brawl that lands her in the last place she expected to be.Town Marshal Morgan Avery wants nothing more than to wash away the trail-dust and sleep for a week, preferably with a soft, willing woman by his side. Instead, he gets Abigail Thornton – all one hundred pounds of her thrust at him seconds before a fist connects with his face. Breaking up the fight takes more effort than he wants to admit and when the last man falls he finds Abigail still standing and not looking the least bit contrite.Throwing her into the town jail for the night would salve his wounded pride and then he will let her go. Or that was the plan. When morning comes he finds himself oddly reluctant to do so. Miss Thornton is hiding something and he aims to find out what, even if he has to bed her to do so. But will one night in her bed be enough?

It’s great when authors get together to cross promote. We should do it more often so thanks for this op.

In The Dark With You
by Alexandra Marell

Damien Lucius is the boy no one ever sees. Having spent all his life behind the walls of the Lucius mansion he’s become the stuff of legends. The villagers say vampires live there and Damien is only too happy to encourage the tales as it earns him a prestige he could never hope to have. Now, aged 21, the years of loneliness and despair are taking their toll, but Fate, it seems has a job for Damien. On his first time out of the mansion he meets Alicia Stanton on the cliff road, hurting and scared and when she accepts his offer of a place of safety their futures are forever entwined.

Moonlight on the Palms
by Lisa Greer
contemporary gothic romance novel
29 year-old professor of Modern Literature
Astrid Kent is enjoying her summer in Seattle when she gets a call that
catapults her back into her sordid past. Her mother, famous artist Maeve
Garza Kent, has died suddenly back in Brownsville, Texas, and Astrid
has inherited her home and other belongings–including an ex-lover in
residence.
Astrid goes reluctantly back to her childhood home, La
Casa de la Luz. She soon realizes the house and grounds have secrets
when her mother’s ghost appears to her, she finds a letter and a coded
note that say “trust no one,” and she sees someone prowling around at
night. Matters are complicated since Astrid is drawn to two men who
spend time at La Casa: Manfred Banes, a painter with looks just as
Nordic and chilly as his personality and the dark and driven Juan
Marquez who broke her heart years before and is rumored to be in the
drug trade. Astrid must determine whom she can trust before present
events spiral beyond her control.

Oh isn’t CL Wilson’s Tairen Soul Series just beyond Fabulous. She wrote such amazing characters, a truly epic fantasy and a Romance for the ages
Oh gosh yes! I read these as they came out and I ‘still’ think about these characters from time to time. They stick with you, always. Not a lot of characters do so its always an added bonus when you come across those books that do. I know she has a few more books that take off from this series and I can not wait until they’re released.Thanks for stopping by, Shauni!
