The Last Wolf by Sue Brown

USA Today - Becky Condit

"....When a book is over but the ending for the main characters is not yet complete, is that a satisfactory conclusion to the book? I will tell you that it is, if the book is well written. This is especially true when a book is part of a series....

....Ms. Brown sets us off on a journey of love and hate in the Sapphire Ranch series, and this is only the first book. I can hardly wait for the next one!..."

Catching Kit by Kay Berrisford


Paranormal Romance Guild - 

"....It is strange that this novella captured my imagination the way it did…. immediately. Ms Berrisford being a new to me author made it so there was no expectation for her work. I just love when a plan comes together!

This is the first in this series and an adorable and yet very sexy read. I write no more as I want no spoilers...Give it a chance and while you get this, follow up on other books from this author....I will...."

Dead Things by Meredith Russell

The Novel Approach - Lisa

"....From page one, Ms. Russell does a fantastic job of setting the tone and pace of the novel. Her descriptions are palpable, creating a mood of unease and a sense of overwhelming bleakness as it becomes clear humans are at a distinct disadvantage in a world that’s now overrun by monsters. Each trip beyond the relative safety of the prison walls in which a small band of survivors dwells is a risk, but is also integral to their survival. The danger and suspense, not to mention the gruesomeness of each zombie encounter, is filled with heart-pounding, adrenaline pumping moments, and I loved it...."

Capture The Sun by RJ Scott and Meredith Russell

Because Two Men Are Better Than One - Nic Starr

"....I really enjoy this series. It’s like receiving a lovely little gift each time a new book is released. What makes it appealing, at least for me, is the familiarity of the setting – who can resist a gorgeous tropical island? – and also the chance to get little glimpses of characters we’ve met before. Plus I always like the pairing of the men in the story.

....This story combines some hot sex with a sweet story as these men get in touch with their emotions. It’s a gentle, read-in-one-sitting kind of book, that leaves you smiling at the happy ending...."

Reviewed by Josie Goodreads - 4 out of 5 stars

"....Catching Kit is a delightful, surprisingly cute but quite kinky story. I loved it when I first read it two years ago, and it’s just as wonderful now...."


"....As with any good stories I did wish Catching Kit was longer, it’s only a novella, and now it’s been re-released I’d love to read a sequel, find out how Denny and Kit are getting on, did they ever get EB rights? And I just have to mention the new gorgeous cover designed by Meredith Russell. The first one was lovely but this one is just perfect, showing the two characters exactly as I imagined them to be.

If you love adorable sweet elves, the paranormal, and crave happy endings don’t miss Catching Kit, it will leave you warm and fussy inside...."

Rainbow Book Reviews


Reviewed by Serena Yates

"....All I was going to do was read the first chapter, just to get a feeling for what this story was like. I am still not sure what it was—The situation? The characters? The dialogue?—but I could not put down the book. There is something very real, something fascinating, at least for me, in a werewolf story set in an otherwise completely contemporary world. The general public doesn’t know about shifters, yet there are some hidden politics going on, secretive, brutal hunters on the prowl, and a semi-military group that comes in to help. It almost sounds normal–except for the shifter part...."

"....If you like werewolf stories that feel so contemporary you may think the paranormal creatures really ARE among us, if two men from different worlds who need to learn to work together if they want to survive sound interesting, and if you’re looking for an action-packed yet entertaining read with some very hot man-on-shifter action, then you will probably like this novella. I definitely want more of the same—as soon as possible...."

Underground Elves Series

Book 1 - Catching Kit

Denny is a top secret agent on a mission to protect London from Ethereal Beings – elves – who are seen as dangerous mind-reading parasites who prey on human emotions.

Kit is an elf on the run, misunderstood and persecuted by humans. When Denny catches him, he shatters everything Denny’s been taught about elves. He’s gorgeous and funny and claims he’s been searching a long time for a guy like Denny. He shares Denny's kinks and now he needs Denny's love to survive.

But if Denny doesn't take Kit to jail, he’s in big trouble. Dare Denny break the law and gamble his life to save the Ethereal Being in his bed?

Note: This is a revised version of a previously released title.


Do you like urban paranormal stories? Personally, I’m a big fan of tales set in familiar worlds but with a touch of the supernatural or magic, and of course, a large dose of m/m romance. I love reading them…and writing them too.

So I was thrilled when Love Lane Books gave me the opportunity to revisit the universe I created in Catching Kit, the story of a romance between an elf and an elf catcher, set in an alternative London where elves are (obviously!) real.

In Catching Kit (Underground Elves, Book 1) we meet Kit, an elf—or, an Ethereal Being, as his species are called by humans—searching for a man he can love in a world that misunderstands and rejects him. 

He kindles an unlikely romance with Denny, an Ethereal Being Containment Agent. Denny is supposed to be taking Kit to jail but he ends up trying to protect him. At the end of Catching Kit, Denny and Kit find a way to be together, but their troubles are far from over. Elves are still persecuted, and although originally I wrote an epilogue intended to clear their problems up, I felt that there was still more story to tell.

So onto Underground Elves, Book 2, which I’m busy writing at the moment (well, I’m trying to! What with moving house and starting a new job this summer, real life is currently conspiring against me.) The second book is provisionally titled Alfie’s Game and tells the story of Alfie, a reckless, larger-than-life elf who yearns to be an actor. My original character notes for Alfie said “John Barrowman-meets-Robbie Williams-meets-Laurence Olivier”…then I screamed in horror, and started work on making him all his own. Nobody can be that larger than life.

Alfie hooks up with quiet computer hacker, John, in an “opposites attract” romance, and they join with Kit and Denny in the fight for elf liberation. Though, of course, it’s going to be a bumpy journey, full of peril, love, and dangerous chases through London and the English countryside. So far, it’s been fun to write, and I hope you will enjoy joining us on the ride.

Kay writes m/m adventures and contemporary paranormal tales, usually set in her native England.

When she isn’t buried in books, she’s stewarding at a medieval house, or shouting at the world to get involved in awesome events celebrating all things historical.

She loves angst-filled romances, in which the heroes suffer a bit (sometimes a lot!) but they always get their happy ever afters.

Finalist for the Rainbow Awards in the fantasy catagory (2013) and nominated for Best Historical at Love Romance Cafe (2011).
