Genre: Paranormal Romance

What do you do when you’re magically inept in a world where your worth rests on your magical ability?

This is the question that has haunted magic-less Warden Lyssa all her life. So when injured Warrior Hawk mistakes her for a full Warden and claims sanctuary she agrees, thinking she can hide the truth for just one night.

Unfortunately it’s not so easy with a Warden execution squad on her tail and then a steamy encounter with her handsome warrior challenges everything Lyssa thought she knew about herself…

Favorite Quote:

“When Lyssa cried she sounded like a cross between a pig and a donkey, her eyes went bright red, and her nose ran so much it could double as an Olympic contender.”

My Review:

I rarely read paranormal books, but I have learned to make an exception for Mina Carter.  Ms. Carter has a way of making her unusual paranormal stories smoking hot, while also being fun and witty at the same time.   Her stories contain odd-ball and sad-sack characters, as well as sexy beasts that are - on occasion – beasts.  This time our sexy beast is a leather wearing Warrior, whose purpose is to hunt and kill the scary bad things that most humans don’t know about.  I want one.   He may not have been the star attraction of the story, but he was for me – I though he was yummy.

Mina was born and raised in the East Farthing of Middle Earth (otherwise known as the Midlands, England) and spend her childhood learning all the sorts of things generally required of a professional adventurer. Able to ride, box, shoot, make and read maps, make chainmail and use a broadsword (with varying degrees of efficiency) she was disgusted to find that adventuring is not considered a suitable occupation these days.

So, instead of slaying dragons and hunting vampires and the like, Mina spends her days writing about hot shifters, government conspiracies and vampire lords with more than their fair share of RAWR. Turns out wanna-be adventurers have quite the turn of imagination after all.
..

(But she keeps that sword sharp, just in case the writing career is just a dream and she really *is* an adventurer.)

The boring part: A full time author and cover artist, Mina can usually be found hunched over a keyboard or graphics tablet, frantically trying to get the images and words in her head out and onto the screen before they drive her mad. She's addicted to coffee and would like to be addicted to chocolate, but unfortunately chocolate dislikes her.

Release Day Blitz and Review: Sinfully Naughty by Mina Carter

Sinfully Naughty

by Mina Carter

Tour Organizer: N K Author Services

Five Sinfully Naughty Stories! Let us take you on a journey of seduction and desire with this bundle of contemporary and paranormal tales from bestselling author Mina Carter.

**Coming End July 2014!**

Claimed by the Blade – He’s waited years to claim her. Tonight, she’s all out of excuses…

Thrill of the Night – She walked away from the life years ago. Will she trade safety and security to be in his arms?

Tori’s Secret – She’s trying to find Mr. Right. So far all she’s found are Mr. Arrogant, Mr. Self-Obsessed and Mr. Downright Scary. But is she looking in the right places? Is her Mr.Right something more than human?

Hitting on the Hooker – One sexy rugby player. One chance encounter. One explosive night neither will ever forget.

Siren’s Seduction – Half mermaid, half… something else, Dualla’s always been the odd one out. A healer like her mother, she’s had the same dream for years — dreams of a man who is more than a man, and a dragon with purple scales who sets the sea on fire. A warrior to her mystic. A man with a broken heart… one Dualla knows she was born to heal.

Favorite Quotes:

I attempted a sexy saunter as I walked over.  All I managed to achieve was slopping the coffee on the tray and almost putting my hip out of joint.” 

“Most humans couldn’t tell a paranormal unless one came up and bit them on the ass, which was actually a possibility with some of the demon-kind, so she was fairly safe.” 

My Review:

I don't typically read paranormal, willingly, but I make an exception when it comes to Mina Carter.  I recently stumbled onto her work when I read Paranormal Protection Agency, and found her work to be both funny and smoking hot at the same time, regardless of the genre.  And she has done just that, yet again, with Sinfully Naughty.  An entertaining collection of delightfully naughty tales with equal servings of humor and spice, yet you find yourself also pulling for the characters to overcome whatever strange trial or unique adversity has befallen them which is complicated by their various species.  Interesting wrinkle to realize that whether the character was a mermaid, dragon, or Wraith, they all just want to be loved and have terrific sex.  Hmm… don’t we all?  I found this collection a nice change of pace from the contemporary stories I generally read.

Book Blitz: The Letter (Mr. July) - Mina Carter

The Letter (Mr. July) 

by Mina Carter

Release Day Blitz

July 2nd

Sergeant Rick Week’s career ended in a hail of bullets and the death of a friend. After months of recuperation, he’s finally able to fulfill a promise he made to that friend. All he has to do is find a girl and deliver a letter. Simple. Maybe…

Hattie Jameson lost the man she loved. KIA. A year and a half later, she’s trying to move on but a letter for a charity calendar shoot addressed to her late fiance, Billy, rocks her. Not as much as the sexy as hell Scottish soldier who turns up on her doorstep. The man who was with Billy when he died. She shouldn’t find him attractive. Not at all…

Meanwhile fate, and Billy himself, have plans to bring the reluctant lovers together.
