Feature and Giveaway: Cherished by Maya Banks and Lauren Dane

In one volume---two all-new novellas that cross the boundaries of desire in CHERISHED by Maya Banks and Lauren Dane.

Exhiled by Maya Banks...Enticed by the island paradise where an enigmatic prince is living in exile, beautiful, virginal Talia is introduced to a world of forbidden pleasure. But when the prince is summoned back to fulfill his duty to his struggling country, reality is thrust upon Talia all too soon. She returns home, heartbroken until the day the idle ruler and his most trusted men arrive on her doorstep, determined to have her back where she belongs.

Sway by Lauren Dane…Levi Warner is an established, older man---wealthy, powerful, and above all, respectable. Then Levi meets Daisy, a hot 24-year-old tattoo artist. Daisy’s young, free spirit brings out something in him that he only experienced in fantasies. When their scorching affair turns into something more, Levi finds himself torn between preserving his reputation and exploring a wilder and much more satisfying kind of life.

Maya Banks lives in Texas with her husband, three children and assortment of cats. When she's not writing, she can be found hunting, fishing or playing poker. A southern girl born and bred, Maya loves life below the Mason Dixon, and more importantly, loves bringing southern characters and settings to life in her stories.

The story goes like this: While on pregnancy bed rest, Lauren Dane had plenty of down time so her husband took her comments about “giving that writing thing a serious go” to heart and brought home a secondhand laptop. She wrote her first book on it before it gave up the ghost. Even better, she sold that book and never looked back.

Today Lauren is a New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of over forty novels and novellas across several genres. Though she no longer has to deal with Polly Pocket and getting those tiny outfits on and off, she still has trouble blocking out the sound of iCarly so she can write a love scene.

  4. I really love all kinds. I love it when they are all growly, but I also love it when they are not afraid to express their feelings and show their nerdy side. Variety is the spice of life after all.

  16. My favorite is a hero who has some deep dark thing that he feels makes him unworthy and he has to work that out with the heroine. He also needs to be passionate, caring, honest, with just a touch of arrogance.
