Thinking about what I wanted to feature today, I decided to reach to my Kindle, seeking inspiration.
I wasn't disappointed. How could I possibly be, when my reading choices were as endless as the Night is Dark...
Welcome to the world of 1001 Dark Nights.
Welcome to the world of 1001 Dark Nights.
Brought together by a common cause, a love of writing Romance, 1001 Dark Nights gives readers a treasure - the opportunity to read work by different Authors, from within the many available sub-genres of the Romance category as a whole.
Whether their work is light or dark, the sex hot or mild, the hero paranormal or contemporary, there remains one qualifying factor - their work earns the merit to stand on its own, fancy name and logo notwithstanding.
These are Authors whose work regularly lands them at the top of the bestseller charts. Their work sits at the highest echelon within the Romance genre, with cause. You can't climb much higher up the ladder than these Authors have, without reaching Heaven itself. But, then again, you may already be there after reading one of their novellas.
In order to give you the opportunity to look at each title, I've listed them independently. However, due to spacial limitations, I have kept each brief, giving only the title's blurb.
Keep an eye out below for links to their work! Enjoy! =)
They had nothing in common but a desperate passion…
Billionaire Jason Denning lived life fast and hard in a world where anything could be bought and sold, even affection. But all that changed when he met “Greta,” a beautiful stranger ready to explore her hidden desires. From a blue collar family, Gia Angelotti wore a badge, fought for right—and opened herself utterly to love him. Blindsided and falling hard, Jason does the first impulsive thing of his life and hustles her to the altar.
Until a second chance proved that forever could be theirs.Then tragedy ripped Jason’s new bride from his arms and out of his life. When he finds Gia again, he gives her a choice: spend the three weeks before their first anniversary with him or forfeit the money she receives from their marriage. Reluctantly, she agrees to once again put herself at his mercy and return to his bed. But having her right where he wants her is dangerous for Jason’s peace of mind. No matter how hard he tries, he finds himself falling for her again. Will he learn to trust that their love is real before Gia leaves again for good?
It's a happy time for Sloan Trent and Jane Everett. What could be happier than the event of their wedding?
Their Krewe friends will all be there and the event will take place in a medieval castle transported brick by brick to the New England coast. Everyone is festive and thrilled . . . until the priest turns up dead just hours before the nuptials.
Jane and Sloan must find the truth behind the man and the murder—the secrets of the living and the dead—before they find themselves bound for eternity—not in wedded bliss but in the darkness of an historical wrong and their own brutal deaths.
Bounty Hunter Naya Blade never thought she'd step foot in Surrender, Montana again. Especially since there was a warrant out for her arrest.
But when her skip ends up in the normally peaceful town, she has no choice but to go after him to claim her reward. Even at the cost of running into the cop that makes her blood run hot and her sense of self-preservation run cold.
Deputy Lane Greyson wants to see Naya in handcuffs, but he'd much prefer them attached to his bed instead of in a cold jail cell. She drove him crazy once before and then drove right out of town, leaving havoc in her wake. He's determined to help her hunt down the bad guy so he can claim his own bounty—her.
And amidst all the chaos and confusion, a stalker lurks and threatens to tear Ursula and Oliver apart before they can blood-bond.
Derek Brighton has become one of Dallas’s finest
detectives through a combination of discipline and obsession. Once he has a
target in his sights, nothing can stop him. When he isn’t solving homicides, he
applies the same intensity to his playtime at Sanctum, a secretive BDSM club.
Unfortunately, no amount of beautiful submissives can fill the hole that one
woman left in his heart.
Unhinged
Karina Mills has a reputation for being reckless,
and her clients appreciate her results. As a private investigator, she pursues
her cases with nothing holding her back. In her personal life, Karina yearns
for something different. Playing at Sanctum has been a safe way to find peace,
but the one Dom who could truly master her heart is out of reach.
Enflamed
On the hunt for a killer, Derek enters a shadowy
underworld only to find the woman he aches for is working the same case. Karina
is searching for a missing girl and won’t stop until she finds her. To get
close to their prime suspect, they need to pose as a couple. But as their
operation goes under the covers, unlikely partners become passionate lovers
while the killer prepares to strike.
Even
in the fathomless depths of the underworld and the bleak chambers of a damaged
heart, the bonds of love can heal…or destroy.
He
holds the ability to annihilate souls in the palm of his hand. He commands the
respect of the most dangerous of demons and the most powerful of angels. He can
seduce and dominate any female he wants with a mere look. But for all Azagoth’s
power, he’s bound by shackles of his own making, and only an angel with a
secret holds the key to his release.
She’s
an angel with the extraordinary ability to travel through time and space. An
angel with a tormented past she can’t escape. And when Lilliana is sent to
Azagoth’s underworld realm, she finds that her past isn’t all she can’t escape.
For the irresistibly sexy fallen angel known as Azagoth is also known as the
Grim Reaper, and when he claims a soul, it’s forever…

Life is hard.
Life leaves you
beaten, broken…alone.
Then one day, a stranger touches your hand and you feel
something intense, unforgettable, but yet, you want to forget. You need to
forget. It’s safer than believing in things you’ve decided don’t exist. You
know all about shattered promises and lost hope. You know them so much better
than you know this excited, warm, wonderful feeling, and it scares you. He
scares you, but he also makes you feel alive again. He makes you realize you
haven’t really been living. You’re surviving and you fear he’s the one who’ll
make you forget how to keep doing it. But what if he’s the one who changes
everything?

When Rainie rushes an injured dog
to a clinic, she’s appalled to recognize the veterinarian, Jake Sheffield.
So not fair. His memory has haunted
her for over a decade. And then he showed up at her Shadowlands BDSM club. And
now, he owns the veterinary clinic? The Gods of Cruelty must be laughing at
her.
Master Jake is sophisticated,
wealthy, and gorgeous. Rainie’s a fluffy, ex-slum-rat. He’d never be with a
woman like her. Besides, she’s been burned enough times that she won’t get
serious about any man. Sure, the BDSM club trainees are supposed to be seeking
a permanent Dom, but no harm, no foul—the Masters don’t need to know the truth.
As a Shadowlands Master, Jake
watches out for all the trainees. But one is special. Lush body, a gift for
living life to the fullest, always laughing or smiling. Now he’s learned she
also has a big heart. Although Rainie trips all his switches, she’s avoided him
since the moment she arrived…and he let her have that play. But when she lies
to him about her goals, he knows the time has come for a Master to take an
active part in her training.

Ambition has always been his
biggest downfall…until he meets her.
With his cowboy charm and rugged
good looks, world champion bulldogger Sutton Grant lives hard on the road and
plays even harder. When he’s temporarily sidelined by an injury, he needs help
keeping his horse in competition shape, but he knows sweet-talking premier
horse trainer London Gradsky is a losing proposition.
London is humiliated when her
boyfriend dumps her for a rodeo queen. What makes the situation worse? She’s
forced to see the lovebirds on the rodeo circuit every weekend. In an attempt
to save face, London agrees to assist the notoriously wild Sutton Grant with
his horse training problem on one condition: Sutton has to pretend to be her
new boyfriend.
Sutton has always had a soft spot
for sweet and sassy London. Being in close quarters causes the attraction
between them to ignite. The more time they spend together, the more Sutton
realizes he wouldn’t mind being roped and tied to the rough and tumble cowgirl
for real…

Once, they lived in secret
alongside mankind. Now, emerged from the shadows, the Breed faces enemies
on both sides—human and vampire
alike. No one knows that better than Lazaro Archer, one of the eldest, most
powerful of his kind. His beloved Breedmate and family massacred by a madman
twenty years ago, Lazaro refuses to open his heart again.
Sworn to his duty as the leader of
the Order’s command center in Italy, the last thing the hardened warrior wants
is to be tasked with the rescue and safekeeping of an innocent woman in need of
his protection. Nor is the embittered Breed male prepared for the fierce desire
his beautiful charge stirs within him, tempting him unlike anything he has ever
known….
Cassidy Burke has the best of both
worlds, a driven and successful husband and a wild, impulsive best friend. But
after a decadent Mardi Gras party, Cassidy finds both men pulling away from
her. Did the three of them awaken secret desires during a split-second of
alcohol-fueled passion? Or is Mardi Gras a time when rules are meant to be
broken without consequence?
Only one thing is for certain—the
chill that’s descended over her marriage, and her most important friendship,
will soon turn into a deep freeze if she doesn’t do something. And soon.
Light this flame at the scene of
your greatest passion and all your desires will be yours.
The invitation stares out at her
from the window of a French Quarter boutique. The store’s owner claims to have
no knowledge of the strange candle. But Cassidy can’t resist its intoxicating
scent or the challenge written across its label in elegant cursive. With the
strike of a match and one tiny flame, she will call forth a supernatural being
with the ultimate power—the power to unchain the heart, the power to remove the
fear that stands between a person and their truest desires.

There are some who believe that
immortality is a gift. The seven members of the Phoenix Brotherhood
know that it is a curse…
Rainer Engel has lived a thousand
lifetimes. He has died a hundred deaths. And he has been reborn each time in
the Phoenix fire, unable to escape this earth or the life to which he has been
bound.
He has seen those he loved grow up,
wither, and die. He has known loss and pain. He has lied. He has killed. And he
has shut his heart tight.
For Rain, death is his only goal.
His, and the death of the Frei, a demon-breed that Rain and his companions
inadvertently set loose upon the world so many lifetimes ago. Eradicate the few
remaining Frei and the brotherhood can sleep.
He is focused. Single-minded. And
he has no time for love.
At least not until he meets Callie
Sinclair.
Callie wants only one thing: to
find her missing father. Desperate, she turns to Phoenix Security for help,
unaware that Phoenix is the brotherhood’s front company.
When it becomes clear that the
missing man inadvertently caught the attention of the last of the Frei, Rain
realizes that Callie and her father may be the key to his redemption—and his
death.
Unlike most humans, Callie is
well-aware of the shadows in the world. After all, her professor father chased
demons for years—and his obsession destroyed her childhood and took her
mother’s life. But despite her disdain for those who hunt demons, she finds
herself drawn to Rain. To his strength, his edge, even to the darkness that
clings to him.
As for Rain, he can’t deny the way
this beautiful mortal awakens a fire deep inside him. He wants her—will do
anything to possess her.
But in order to have her, Rain must
face the most brutal of choices. Because once the Frei are defeated and her
father is safe, Rain’s time on this earth will be over … and so will his days
with Callie.
