Carnival Tarot


Jory Strong - 2006
    Did all men take one look at her well-endowed breasts and think sex? The last thing she was about to do was make out in a tiny car on some godforsaken mountain with a date she never wanted to see again. Daniel Fox wanted to forget a case gone bad and a relationship gone sour. When a client he had defended killed his wife, Daniel took a leave of absence and, alone, heads for a mountain retreat to deal with the guilt. The last thing he wants is company. A winter storm forces them together and they must share a tiny cabin with one bed. In that bed they discover a dark passion that rules them both. Neither of them gets what they had planned...but both get something better.

The Talisman


Marilyn Lee - 2004
    Or it would be inexplicable, if not for the fact that they are the great grandchildren of Louisiana born and bred lovers who were forced apart by their families near the end of the nineteenth century. Before the ill-fated lovers parted, they exchanged two talismans, which were then passed down to their grandchildren, who used them improperly and spent their lives in an aimless search for love. Now in possession of the talismans, Cassy and Chandler begin having erotic fantasies and dreams of each other. As Cassy slowly succumbs to the lure of her talisman (a small golden figurine of a mating couple), the line between her feelings for Chandler and those of her long dead great grandmother for Chandler's great grandfather blur. Can a couple driven together by the power of magic remain together or have they, like their grandparents before them, become slaves to the talismans with the same heartbreaking results? Publisher's Note: this title is loosely connected to the Bloodlust series.
