Emeral Isle Fantasie series, Jennifer LaRose, Phantom Mischief

I’m pleased to share with everyone a guest blog from authonr Jennifer LaRose, as well as a a special sneak peek at her book, Phantom Mischief.

*****

Hi Everyone,

I’d like to introduce you to a multiple author, paranormal series I’m involved in. It’s titled, Emerald Isle Fantasies, and it’s set in enchanted Ireland at a haunted castle/hotel. There’s ghosts, witches, wolf shifters, griffin shifters, time travel, as well as vampires and much more. Each story was created to stand-alone, so there’s isn’t any  reading sequence. The following books are currently available through Ellora’s Cave, as well as Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and other numerous ebook sellers. They’re receiving some really great reviews.

#1 Phantom Mischief by Jennifer LaRose
#2 Lord Griffin’s Prize by Katalina Leon
#3 Ghostly Persuasion by Dena Garson
#4 Crimson Lust by Rebecca Royce
#5 Selkie’s Rapture by Lena Loneson  releasing 10/18/13
#6 Tell me your Secrets by Virginia Cavanaugh releasing 10/25/13

Phantom Mischief – Quick Blurb: Swept off to Ireland by her fiancé for a fairytale vacation, Shanna ends up stranded and alone. Heartbroken, she crumples into the arms of  Castle Tullamore’s handsome and overly-endowed gardener, Niall. When a  determined, dark apparition begins stalking her, Niall realizes it may  be the key to their destiny. ~

A few more books from the series will be releasing soon! We’re very, very excited about them!  To give you a little taste of our setting, this is the castle we used for Castle Tullamore’s inspiration:

Emerald Isle Fantasies: Series Blurb:

     When guests check into the historic Castle Tullamore Hotel they expect  bucolic scenery and luxurious service. What they don’t anticipate, along with the 5 star accommodations, they get drawn into lots of  otherworldly Irish mischief and erotic enchantment.
     At  Tullamore there are ghostly lovers, griffin-shifters, vampires, selkies, witches and werewolves waiting to lure the lonely and the adventurous  into forbidden realms.The castle grounds are riddled with time portals where the unwitting can  experience vivid adventures in other timelines. For the most part the  hotel appears to be just a lovely Irish castle until things get wild and reality drops from underfoot like a swinging trapdoor. ~

Excerpt

 I’m out of here. Today. Shanna grabbed her purse, threw a lightweight sweater over her shoulders, yanked Derek’s suitcase off the floor then left the room. She’d barely slept a wink all night. And spending the evening crouched in a corner, starving, scared half to death because she didn’t understand what was happening and wrapped in a blanket with her head covered wasn’t her idea of comfort. Sure, she enjoyed every moment of the sexual encounters, but realistically, that type of thing only happened on TV. Why had it happened to her?

     She’d tried calling Adrienne at 2:00 a.m. to talk through the incidents but she couldn’t obtain any reception from inside the room. No cell phone, no ability to connect to the complimentary Wi-Fi, not even the landline worked, which had kicked the idea of room service to the curb. Talk about feeling entrapped and stranded.

When younger, she and Adrienne believed their house was haunted. Well, it was haunted. Shanna saw a ghost of an old woman to prove it. She’d even taken her claim to a psychic who said Shanna had the talent to communicate with spirits. Why in the world would she want to do that?

A talent? Really? It sounded more like an affliction.

Every noise she and Adrienne heard in the closets and every footstep thumping along the hardwood floor between their rooms, they’d attested to the predictable ghost. They’d even gone as far as setting tape recorders in their bedrooms to capture voices. They’d never caught any but the thrill was in trying. Then one morning before Shanna crawled out of bed to dress for school, the edge of her blanket lifted and a gnarled hand, like a demon claw, shot beneath the covers and grabbed her thigh. Terrified, she ran from the room screaming. Even though she’d showed her mom the scratches left on her leg, Mom tried convincing Shanna she’d done it to herself. That was the last time she’d mentioned ghosts and demons to her mother and she never again set a tape recorder inside her room.

Grandma, on the other hand, believed Shanna’s episode. Shortly after, she’d presented Shanna with the bracelet. Grandma said it would keep her safe because it’d been blessed with the greatest strengths of each zodiac sign. Although Shanna didn’t believe metal trinkets could play such an important role in her life because she felt no different whether it was on or off her wrist, she found comfort in Grandma’s gesture.

What would Adrienne say now if Shanna explained last night’s encounter with the supernatural? If Shanna had any self-respect left by the time she fled this place, she wouldn’t even mention it.

She slid her sunglasses from the top of her head to her nose to conceal the dark circles under her bloodshot eyeballs. Ugh. As if those weren’t bad enough, her entire genital area was swollen and tender.

Swearing on her life, she’d had sex with a huge cock. No, she hadn’t seen it, but she didn’t have to. She knew how a sound screwing felt. And just because she couldn’t see it didn’t mean it hadn’t happened. The fact was, she’d been wide awake. It wasn’t a dream or delirium from lack of nutrition. Nor had she fist-fucked herself. Seriously. To even suggest she’d do something so atrocious. And she knew she’d also been fucked on the bed moments prior to that incident. And she’d tried convincing herself she’d had a wet dream?
