Excerpted from Forbidden Magic by Jennifer Lyon. Copyright © 2012 by Jennifer Apodaca.
The setting for excerpt: Ram and Ginny alone in the Axel of Evil Nightclub after closing.
Excerpt
He lifted her and settled her on the counter that ran beneath the bar. “You want to know what it’s really like to be kissed by trouble? Think hard before you answer.”
She put her hands on his shoulders. “I want to know what it’s like to be kissed by you. Really kissed.”
The contact blazed through his t-shirt right to his skin. Oh hell yeah. Ram slid his hands down her hips. Full and round, he savored the feel. Then he drew his palms down the tops of her thighs.
She shivered. More heat colored her skin, making her eyes nearly shimmer in contrast. She caught a deep breath. Her breasts strained against her shirt. Her scent filled his nose and throat.
This was what Ram loved, learning the sensuality of a woman as he held himself in rigid control. It was so fucking hot to get a woman’s trust to follow his orders and unleash as much pleasure as she could take.
But with Ginny?
Explosive.
Ram fought hard for control. For her. He’d show her a kiss that would sear her dreams. Fuck the warning flares going off deep in the jungles of his mind.
He wrapped his hands around her knees and pressed her legs open.
Wide.
Her fingers dug into his shoulders as she obeyed.
Ram stepped in. Tight. He gave her no escape. He wanted to fill her vision, fill her senses. “You’re going to kiss me again. A real kiss, Ginny.”
She tilted her head back, staring at him. “A dangerous kiss.”
“It’ll be wet, Ginny.” He leaned closer, until he knew she’d feel his words as well as hear them. “I’m going to take command of your mouth. All of it.”
Her eyes glazed. And her mouth, Christ. Her pink tongue darted out, sweeping over her lips then disappearing. “Exactly what I’ve dreamed of.”
Damn she was killing him. He lifted his hands, cupping her face. Then he brushed his lips over hers. Pure heat blazed through Ram. He gave her a second and then he angled her head back and touched his tongue to hers.
She tasted so damned good. So fresh and bright, like clean water in the desert. Ram flexed his thighs and fought to keep control of the kiss.
Of her.
Of the wild blazing lust snapping between them. Sliding an arm around her waist, he pushed her back until she lay on his arm and he consumed her. Tasted all of Ginny, learned every little shiver.
Felt her nipples tighten and bud against his chest.
Then he felt her slide her tongue into his mouth, at first tentative, but growing bolder.
And bolder. She reached up, burying her fingers into his hair, throwing herself into the kiss.
Damn, he wanted to strip off her clothes and keep tasting her.
Soul mirror! The words screamed in his mind.
He ripped his mouth from hers, lifting her upright. “Shit.” He reached out, grabbed the beer she’d opened for him, and drained half of it in a couple swallows.
It did nothing to cool his raging desire for her.
He drained the rest of the beer. Set it down, then looked over at her sitting to his left.
She met his gaze. “That was a hell of a kiss. Is it always like that for you? Are you that good?” Wonder tinged her tone, while desire thickened her voice.
Tearing his gaze from her swollen lips, he answered. “No. Never like that.” He wouldn’t lie to her. And he wanted the truth in return. “You’re a virgin.”
With her hands braced on the counter where she sat, she closed her eyes, dropping her head. “Yes, and I need to stay that way.”

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Wing Slayer Hunter, Ram Virtos, must find his soul mirror witch and convince her to mate with him before his Thunderbird tattoo kills him. But while that witch might be able to save Ram’s life, it is the mysterious Ginny Stone who inflames his passion.

Ginny has been deeply fascinated by Ram for months, but dared not act on it or she’d be torn from her mortal life on earth and thrust into her dreaded destiny as a half-breed angel. But when her beloved brother’s soul is at stake, she must do the one thing she both fears and desires…

REVIEW PROVIDED BY: Kelly            
5 Stars

REVIEW:
What do you do when the one person who can save you, runs from you?  But the one person you want, the one that is always there, the one willing to do anything and everything for you just might be the only one to really save you?  

This is the very problem the Ram finds himself in, in Forbidden Magic.  His soul mirror witch, has deserted him, left him to deal with the curse and his demons on his own.  Ram feels the pull to the one witch that can save him and his soul, but his heart has other plans. Ram’s heart belongs to someone he can never have.  

Ginny knows that it is just a matter of time before she gives in to her father’s demands.  But she is not in any hurry.  Although being around Ram is very tempting for her to break her own rules.  When Ginny’s father blackmails her and gives her no choice, by threatening the two men she cares about the most on this earth, her brother Eli and the man she is head over heels in love with Ram, Ginny finally realizes that her father has won.

Fate always seems to have a way of knowing what and who is best for you.  But what happens when Fate is wrong?  What happens when your heart won’t let fate win?  What happens when you love the wrong person so much,  it makes it is so very right?

If you want the answers to these questions you need to pick up a copy of Forbidden Magic.  And see who wins, Love or Fate….

Huge thank you to Jennifer Lyon for allowing me to read Forbidden Magic early.  And for totally sucking me back into the world of the Wing Slayer Hunters and reminding me of how very much I love this series.   This novella took me on a wild, tortuous journey with Ram & Ginny and left me dying for more..

Winter’s Favorite Giveaway Day~~23

Welcome to Day 23 of Winter’s Favorites.
I have another of my ALL-TIME Favorite authors on the blog today. 
Please welcome the so beyond nice Jennifer Lyon.


For the Gifts From the Heart
A Lesson From my Children
By Jennifer Lyon
     One of my favorite times of year is Christmas, once all the gift shopping is done.
     Gift shopping makes me really anxious as I constantly worry, fret and second guess myself. What’s ironic about that is the people on my list—my family—are pretty easy to buy for and never complain. Yet I always get that same anxiety.
     But once the shopping is done, I turn to something I love. Holiday baking. Growing up, my mom didn’t bake. But my sister-in-law did, and one year, she gave us a Christmas tin full of things she’d baked.
     I was amazed. I can still vividly remember seeing all the fudge and candies in their own little paper cups tucked into a pretty red Christmas tin.
     So I began teaching myself how to bake. But something amazing happened along the way. The days would turn cold (okay, as cold as it gets in Southern California), rainy and it got dark early. So my very young boys were bored and I got them involved in the baking. They loved it!

But we ended up with a lot of baked goods. So we decided to give some of the cookies and candies to the neighbors. The kids and I scoured the stores for packaging, either boxes or tins, that we could afford.

My kids were delighted. They loved this and it became a tradition in our neighborhood. Every year my sons couldn’t wait to get started on the baking. We would plan and shop and even had a few disasters along the way. On the evening we planned to deliver the baked goods, they were so excited they would barely eat their dinner. Almost as excited as they were Christmas morning.

They delivered those gifts with huge smiles as their dad and I watched. They learned the true joy of giving with your heart, and I learned it right along with them. And it was all quite by accident. I certainly wasn’t smart enough to plan this as a life lesson, but like many of the best things in life—it just happened.

Each year, as fall gives away to colder weather and shorter days, and I start to feel anxious about Christmas, I remember what my kids taught me—giving with love is all that really counts.
Wishing all of you warm, safe and happy holidays filled with the gift of love.
