Day 18 of Harlequin's 25 Days of Christmas

No books, it's coloring pages.

After the one-armed paperdoll men I was almost afraid to look. But there are some cute pages. I've no plans to color them, but they are all kid appropriate.

December 17-18: Just Stay, by Aria Grace

Spoiler:

Book 4 of the More Than Friends Gay Romance Series

More Than Friends #1
More Than Friends #2: Drunk in Love
More Than Friends #3: Choosing Happy
More Than Friends #4: Just Stay

All books in this series can be read in sequence or as a standalone novel.

When Spencer agreed to help take down the leader of a Portland crime family, he didn't realize he'd end the night with the bloodied body of an unknowing accomplice in his arms. His initial interest in Dylan was purely physical but when Dylan stepped in front of Topher's gun and saved Spencer, the lust quickly turned into something more. Something he wasn't sure he'd ever find in the fast-paced dot com world he was from.

For mature readers.

December 18-19: The Judas Contact, by Heather Long

Spoiler:

Hope may prove their most dangerous threat.

Boomers, Book 1

Doctor Ilsa Blaine
Codename: Doc
Abilities: Designs programmable bioware, enhanced understanding of brain chemistry
Mission: Research, analyze and troubleshoot the team’s active microchips

On the cutting edge of neuroscience, Ilsa is developing microchips that can be inserted into the brain and deliver information. The applications are endless, but her current goal is just to get dogs to return to their owners should they ‘become lost.’ When her college roommate turns up asking for lunch, she’s hardly prepared for the chaos that ensues or the revelation her chip changed the world, and the lives of five heroes from the future. And now they need her help…

Garrett Fox
Codename: The Viper
Abilities: toxins, poisons and assassination, he can kill with a touch
Mission: Protect Ilsa Blaine

One of five desperate men sent back in time to save the future, Garrett volunteers to be the doctor’s guinea pig as she studies their neuro-chips. It’s not his first time being a lab rat. In close quarters, the unthinkable happens—an attraction that could kill Ilsa. Drawn together by science, and on the fast track to destiny, Ilsa and Garrett must save his team from their chips before they can end them, and maybe Ilsa can prove to Garrett he isn’t toxic to everything he touches…least of all her.

Heroes come in all shapes and sizes. An alliance with the modern day Halo has given their leader a taste of hope. For these five lonely soldiers, the single emotion may prove their most dangerous threat.

Weekly Report:

Read:

• Frozen (Northern Waste #2.5) by Eve Kenin (B/4 stars)

In addition to several Harlequin Treasury titles, I "reread" Eve Kenin's Driven and Hidden (or read the expanded versions for the first time, depending on how you look at it) as it's been years since I read the Shomi editions. Since she wrote the new novella I'm really hoping we'll finally get Yuriko's story soon

December 20-21: Better When It Hurts, by Skye Warren

Spoiler:

"Better When it Hurts is an intense and heartbreakingly beautiful story. I couldn't read fast enough to see what would happen next with Blue and Lola. A definite 5 star read for sure!"
~ Jenika Snow, USA Today bestselling author

A forbidden romance about pain that binds us together...

Five years ago we lived in the same house. He was the ultimate bad boy.

And my foster brother.

Now he's back. Tougher, harder, meaner. All of it aimed at me, because I was the one who sent him away. It's payback time. He wants his pound of flesh, and I am helpless to say no.

****************

December 21-22: Hexbreaker, by Jordan L. Hawk.

Spoiler:

Will a dark history doom their future together?

New York copper Tom Halloran is a man with a past. If anyone finds out he once ran with the notorious O’Connell tunnel gang, he’ll spend the rest of his life doing hard time behind bars. But Tom’s secret is threatened when a horrible murder on his beat seems to have been caused by the same ancient magic that killed his gang.

Cat shifter Cicero is determined to investigate the disappearance of one friend and the death of another, even though no one else believes the cases are connected. When the trail of his investigation crosses Tom’s, the very bohemian Cicero instinctively recognizes the uncultured Irish patrolman as his witch. Though they’re completely unsuited to one another, Cicero has no choice but to work alongside Tom…all the while fighting against the passion growing within.

Tom knows that taking Cicero as his familiar would only lead to discovery and disaster. Yet as the heat between them builds, Tom’s need for the other man threatens to overcome every rational argument against becoming involved.

But when their investigation uncovers a conspiracy that threatens all of New York, Tom must make the hardest decision of his life: to live a lie and gain his heart’s desire, or to confess the truth and sacrifice it all.

There are a bunch of Harlequins and a couple of Carina Press books on the Kindle Daily deal today. Here's the link:

Kindle Daily Deal

Of these, I loved Act Like It by Lucy Parker which set in the London theater world and is a romance between an up and coming actress and a very grumpy leading man who are both appearing in a play together.
