Owen Rhys lives his life ingesting other's sins. An outcast of society, he had but one true friend in young lass Carys. Alone for many years, he only dealt with others when called. Death came to his land, bringing with it vampyres, and the remembrance from his departed father to steer clear.

Doctor Andras Maddock, the town physician, hides secrets of his own. The owner of a powerful weapon, he has the ability to do great things. While the secret he hides is dark, he lives to honor a promise made, to take care of the town folk, and more importantly Owen.
He doesn’t plan on succumbing to yearnings that plague him , but fails. Passion ignites between the two men, while danger hovers like a dark cloud over all. With perceived evil a definite threat, Andras must fight the biggest battle of his life, for his man who has sacrificed himself for a greater purpose.

Synopsis:
Notorious, handsome, and decadent, the Lords of Vice prowl the glittering ballrooms of Regency London— breaking rules and hearts with equal aplomb. But even the wildest rogue must eventually meet his match. . .
IT BEGAN AS A FAVOR. . .
Seduce Lady Juliana Ivers and then cast her aside: Those are his sister’s instructions. Alexius Braverton, Marquess of Sinclair—known as Sin to the ton—is happy enough to oblige, especially when he catches a glimpse of his target. Juliana is completely unlike the empty-headed chits who barely hold his attention for a week. A true gentleman would leave her to find a worthy suitor. But then, a Lord of Vice would never claim to be a gentleman.
WOULD IT END IN FOREVER?
Juliana is expected to marry well to improve her family’s finances, even if she secretly longs to make a living through her musical compositions. A dalliance can only complicate matters, though not even practical Juliana can help succumbing to the aptly named Sin. But one unforgettable night will draw her into a scandalous affair—and a seduction begun as sport will soon become deliciously, dangerously real. . .

I think this is one of the most smashing covers I've seen in a long time, don't you? Alexandra was kind enough to offer a copy of All Night With A Rogue. Please leave her a comment about the cover, along with your name and e-mail to be eligible to win.
Good luck, Keta

Publisher URL: RAVENOUS ROMANCE
ISBN: 9781607773191, Genre: {M/M} Historical, Paranormal
Rating: 5 Nymphs, Literary Nymphs Reviewer: Scandalous Minx
Being a sin eater is lonely, unrewarding work but it’s the only life Owen Rhys has ever known. His people in his small village in Wales
Andras Maddock has more than a soft spot for Owen and no one had better think twice about harming him. Andras and Owen discover their attraction is mutual, but the road to love is rocky. Secrets, hidden pasts and nasty villains will keep Owen and Andras on their toes.
Keta Diablo’s The Sin Eater’s Prince pushed Keta onto my list of favorite authors. After reading past stories, I was pleasantly surprised by her latest release and her ability to spread her wings. The Sin Eater’s Prince hits on three of my favorite genres. The realistic characters do a fantastic job of drawing you into the tale. Owen and Andras both have traits that I found enduring but in the end, Owen won me over. With his big heart, and desire to do what was best for all concerned, he was a pauper hero, rich in love and forgiveness.
The way the story ends leaves room for a sequel, and I’m so hoping this story rich and plot and imagery will have a continuing saga. Buy a copy and enjoy!

SHEILA STEWART IS IN THE KEEP!
.JPG)
Please welcome my friend, an exceptional author, SHEILA STEWART.
ABOUT CONSUMING THE DARKNESS
In Jacob’s Cove, where death is as common as apple pie, a serial murderer is a first. Lieutenant Sienna Storm, the town’s newly minted homicide detective, is eager to prove she’s up to the job of tracking down the demon who rips out his victims’ still-beating hearts. Even if it means using her innate ability to connect with him through his blood.
Detective Nathan Powers lost his partner to the aptly named Heartless Killer, and the trail of bodies leads him straight to Jacob’s Cove. However, this is no typical small town. It’s a strange world populated with bloodthirsty demons and run by a vampire. Still, the leggy blonde Sienna is a pleasant distraction. Until he discovers she’s after the same killer—and she’s not sharing.
Minds clash as the hunt intensifies, but the more they run into each other, the harder it is to stay apart. Together they discover not only clues, but a searing need that rises higher by the day.
That need may be their downfall when Nathan becomes the killer’s next target, and Sienna must risk everything to get him back.

Raves for The Sin Eater's Prince - Keta Diablo
Five Things I Love About The Sin Eater’s Prince
by Keta Diablo
January 11, 2010 10:01 PM EST
PAGAN SPIRIT BLOG
.JPG)
Sin eater: One gifted with magic, able to absorb the sins of a dying person so that person’s soul is free to go unencumbered to heaven. In Keta Diablo’s (http://ketadiablo.gather.com/) paranormal erotic romance The Sin Eater’s Prince, the sin eater is Owen Rhys, a pariah in his small village in Wales Carys
There is much to love in this lush novel from Ravenous Romance; here are my five favorites.
1. The hypnotic cover. From under a gray hood, the vampire stares at us. His eyes are icy blue, his hair and long eyelashes black, his gaze both beautiful and terrifying. This is Dagan, a nasty--but gorgeous--vamp who threatens to put a serious damper on Owen and Andras’s relationship. The cover perfectly captures what Owen feels: attraction and revulsion at once toward this terrible being.
2. The Welsh language and lore. The native, Celtic language of Wales Wales
3. The vampire’s prayer. Dagan offers an eerily beautiful but chilling prayer to his Dark Lord, the devil. For readers who like their vamps scary and dangerous, the vampire’s prayer delivers just the right touch of evil. An excerpt:
“Whatever flows through your body, flows through mine. I am in your likeness, he who feeds on the warm, red elixir of life. I am the dreaded vampire, a blessed composition of your energy, lust and desire. My day is the mortal’s night, my sustenance their blood. When earth has witnessed its last day, I shall rise again and serve you for all eternity. “
4. The kisses. In this very sensual novel, Owen and Andras crave one another’s touch. No parts of their heavenly bodies go unexplored as they make love desperately, ecstatically. Each encounter begins when Andras looks into Owen’s beautiful green eyes…and then they kiss. Keta Diable is skilled in the art of taut sexual tension, turning up the heat until it boils over with every steamy kiss in passages like this:
“Owen’s touch on his arm, the taste of his lips melding with his, sent a jolt of unbearable pleasure rushing through him. The sin eater’s fingers wound their way into the hair at the back of his neck and Owen drew him deeper into the kiss. Andras parted his lips with his tongue, evoking a breathless moan and a defenseless surrender of his body against Owen’s. “
5. Carys Carys Carys
Lovers of paranormal erotic fiction will find The Sin Eater’s Prince irresistible for these, and many other, reasons. It contains a well-crafted world of British Isles magic, wonder, and romance.
