The release of ANGELS' BLOOD is getting so close! I can't wait for March 3rd!
ANGELS' PAWN is already out! Check out the buy links here.
Today, I have an ARC of Shannon K. Butcher's paranormal debut to give away. I had the chance to read Burning Alive early and found it a great start to a new series - it's intense, passionate and the world building is unlike anything else out there.
Burning Alive releases May 5th this year and the ARC will be posted out when ready! Here's the blurb:
CAUTION : readers MAY feel the heat coming off the pages.Today's entry question is: If you could have your way with one paranormal creature, which would you choose?
They are the Sentinels...
Three races descended from ancient guardians of mankind, each possessing unique abilities in their battle to protect humanity against their eternal foes - the Synestryn. Now, one warrior must fight his own desire if he is to discover the power that lies within his one true love.
Helen Day is haunted by visions of herself surrounded by flames, as a dark-haired man watches her burn. So when she sees the man of her nightmares staring at her from across a diner, she attempts to flee - but instead ends up in the man's arms. There, she awakens a force more powerful and enticing than she could ever imagine. For the man is actually Theronai warrior Drake, whose own pain is driven away by Helen's presence.
Together, they may become more than lovers - they may become a weapon of light that could tip the balance of the war and save Drake's people.
Oh, this one's hard. I do love my sexy, affectionate changelings, but the angels have something going for them too. Decisions, decisions!

Hm ok, def vampire. I've read too much to not be interested in it haha
Oh thats easy, Vampire!
:)
Mine would also have to be definately a vampire most of them are sexy as hell!
Oh, that's so hard! There are things I love about so many of them. I can't pick. Vampire, Changeling, Angel. One of those three though ;)
Any paranormal creature that would be interested in me for me :P
Hmm...either vampire or angel, for me.
*ponders*
I've read so many vampires over the years, I think I'm going to go with angels. Got to have some variety, yes?
:)
Ummm, my first thought was vampire. But as I thought about it, still vampire but with a tan! *g*
Vampire most certainly.
Dragon maybe, but Nalini's Big Cats are pretty darn appealing
oooh I would have to say a vampire! love them =)
I would choose a cat shapeshifter.
I am such a sucker for vampires, lol, yes I would have to go for one of those...or a sexy elf wouldn't be wrong. It's the ears
Hmm. One of Nalini's Changelings (mmmm... sexy leopard men) or one of J.R. Ward's Black Dagger Brotherhood.
That's a tough one. I would have to say the wolf changelings :P
Oh my, tough question. I'll have to go with the vampire, because I've had a love affair with them longer than with the shifters, etc. Tall, dark, and fangy does it for me, what can I say! (Not that I would turn down a well built shifter, or maybe a gargoyle or hmmm.) Thanks for the contest!
I'd say a shifter of some sort. Yummy, warm, smells good...oh yeah. :D
Djinn, I blame Rachel Caine's Weather Warden series. Her djinn can shift form any time they choose so I could have Johnny Depp, Miyavi, Cillian Murphy, or anyone else I wanted any day of the week. The added bonus is that they can merge energies which has all kinds of possibilities if you've read the series. Yummy!
I'm thinking I'm going to have to go with your angels. Not because it's your contest, but because I can kind of relate to Elena's fascination with flying. The idea of being high in the air and being able to look down....yeah, I wouldn't mind taking advantage of Rapheal's wings for a few moments. Granted, I would have a death grip on him the entire time, but it would still be amazing.
Definitely a shifter. A big cat shifter :)
Oh. Hot and hunky werewolves. Defintely.

Definitely Jericho Barrons (whatever he is)!!!!!
kevin_cindy @ verizon.net
Changlings or vamps. Can't pick one
Vampire! Always had a thing for them!
Shifter, definitely shifter.
Probably a werewolf or some kind of shifter.
Definitely a wolf changeling.
mmmm . . .give me a Leopard. I love cats and having a huge territorial, possessive, alpha kitty of my own would be Purrrrrfect!
Shapeshifter/Changeling would definitely be my first choice. Next would be a vampire.
Ooh, a sexy vampire for me! ;-)
Shapeshifter/changeling would be for me, I think. Definitely a dominant if not an alpha - love the presence and charisma.
I once thought vampire could be romantic, but somehow, the Twilight vamps undid that for me because they were cold and granite to the touch. I like warm.
Automatically drawn to pick the vampire. I'd love to "meet" a shape shifter be it werewolf or werecat.
*´¨)
¸.·´¸.·*´¨) ¸.·*¨)
(¸.·´ (¸.·´ * Jess*
Definitely one of Nalini's cat changelings.
Oh my...this is hard. I guess I would say Carpathians (the "good" vampire-like beings in Christine Feehan's Dark series).
Ohh vampire by a landslide!
I would like Hawke, please. I don't ask for much. *g*
Nymphs!
i have this thing about werewolves.. i dunno why hehehe
Ooooh.... this is a hard question. I'm very fond of angels, myself. But werecreatures are nice, too... An incubus would be excellent, but I'd like to keep my soul, thanks.
Grrrr.... can I pick a paranormal creature I designed? Because if I could it'd hands down be my race of raptor human hybrids. Mmm, I'm such a sucker for them.
If I can't, then.... hmmm... it's a tie between angels and werebeasts. I just can't decide between them, they've both got their perks. *Coughintheskywithanangel.*
Shapeshifter of some sort (wolf, big cat...)... hmmmm!
I would have to say vampires they have always been my favorite and probably always will be.
Changeling....leopard or wolf, but I think probably the former :) Although...they'd have to want me too :)
No contest... vampire!! They're too delicious for words! :)
I'm going with a changeling ;)
Vamp. They are so sensual!
Werewolf! Roarrrr. LOL.
Gonna go with an angel 'cause the whole wings and flying thing would be really cool. But a changeling would be cool, too, 'cause they're so affectionate.
I have to agree with so many of the previous commenters---Vampire, easy answer. However, the harder answer would be 'Which Vampire'? I mean, we have J.R. Ward's, Lynn Viehl, Christine Feehan's, etc... So many decisions! :D
WEREWOLF!! :)
Oh wow, I just realized that I met Shannon Butcher at a booksigning a few years ago. She was with her husband, Jim Butcher. Both from MISSOURI!! :) She was so incredibly nice as was he! VERY COOL!
Vampire, no question.
Wow that is a hard decision..but those changeling males...yummy!
would have to be a dragon shifter definiltey. I could ride one in more ways than one lol.
I would have to go with the vampire. There is just something oh so sexy about them.
I love me some werewolves...something about that wild, raw, animal energy makes me all kinds of happy. :)
And some of my fave characters are werewolves or have some connection to wolves...Lachlain and Bowen from IAD, Jacob from Twilight, Lupin from HP, and of course my fave HAWKE! :D
Give me a sexy Dragon anyday :)
I love those Dark River cats, especially Dorian! Shifters do it for me every time.
Werewolf. They keep can keep me warm!
Oh goodness, do I have to choose? Can't I just have a bunch of them (vampires, shapeshifters, greek warriors, angels, dark-hunters) hunky paranormal hotties in a room for a party? And if any one of them happen to fancy me as I fancy them, well then...YAY for me!! =)
I'll take one of those sexy lykaes from kresley cole's series!!!
yum!
A werecat or a werewolf, as long as their "parts" don't have any weird extras.
Definitely a shifter
It's really, really hard to choose 'cause I like them all but if I really have to I say that vampires intrigue me the most.
A shifter, but only a big cat or wolf.
A shapeshifter, doesn't matter if it is a wolf, panther or tiger.
Some kind of feline Changeling / Shifter. Panther, Jaguar, or Leapord. Rippling suppressed power under a deceptively sleek exterior.
One of Nalini's shape shifters - wolf or cat, doesn't matter. Those guys are all HOT!!!
Can I have psy? I love to think that under all those cool facade, there are the passionate man inside.
I would have to go with a werewolf. I have read a lot of stories with a lot of sexy wolves!
Toss up between a werewolf and a demon...don't make me choose!
A shapeshifter of some kind, I love the animals :p
Vampire. They are just the sexiest things out there.
Very hard question. Probably a vampire. Maybe a shapeshifter. Uhh, both?
I would've said werewolf until lately when I've read quite a few good cat shifter books. So probably any type of shifter/changeling for me.
A changeling, because they seem the most real to me. But I like most of the characters, so a vampire or an angel or whatever will do if a changeling isn't available.
Can I do a Menage *wicked grin* If i had to choose it would be a shapeshifter. Although Archangels and Vampires are also very high on my list LOL
Vampire or changling ... man, the decisions!
A were-cat of some kind. All that purring, what can I say. :)
This is definitely a hard question to answer because there are so many great paranormal creatures out there. I think I'd have to go with a Fae warrior - though I might like an Angel...
hm... a shapeshifter or a vampire
Hands down werewolf.
An angel sounds great. It's all about the wings.
Definitely angels!! Because they have wings!!! Omg, the perfect man has wings. I know how crazy that makes me sound, but I don't care lol.
Werewolf - but only if he shared all the good traits of a real wolf :D
It's very hard to pick but I'd have to say one of the changelings, either leopard or wolf. They're not as scary as a vampire or werewolf to me.
One of the big cat shifters for me.
I'm on the changeling/shifter bandwagon. :) Thanks for the contest!
That's really hard to chose. I like them all but I think vamps are probably at the bottom of the list since the whole taking my blood would freak me out.
I would have to go with a shapeshifter. The one I would want would be Curran from Ilona Andrews' Kate Daniels series cause he's my fav. *grin*
Someone should count and see who's winning.
Vamps had the early lead but I see weres rapidly approaching the winning line!! (a la racing horses? who knows..)
It would have to be shapeshifters of any kind. I love how their personalities tend to be a reflection of their animals.
VAMPIRE. hands down. since i was nine years old i've wanted on one. :D
Shapeshifter for me as well- I think they are more sexier than vampires :D
I really can't decide, can I have more than one? Vamp (Frost's Bones), purring cat shifter, dark angel. And yeah, whoever said Jericho whatever he is!
