Just a touch of paranormal....

LuAnn McLane mixes a bit of pixie dust with romance in this collection of three intertwined stories, LOVE, LUST AND PIXIE DUST. In the first story, Crazy, psychic Mary Jane "M.J." Barone specializes in identifying the soul mates of people. When cowboy Brody Baker wanders drunkenly into her store, she is shocked to find he is her soul mate. However, Brody doesn't believe in the paranormal. Honky-tonk Angel is the story of M.J.'s sister, Sophia, who is a professional medium. Sexy bar owner, Logan Parks, is adamantly opposed to the concept of mediums, particularly when his sister wants to contact their deceased grandmother. In the meantime, Sophia fears the return of a man she helped put in prison. Walkin' After Midnight concludes this collection with the final Barone sibling, Lucio. Lucio is solidly grounded in reality as a personal trainer until he meets Logan's sister, Savannah. What happens when LOVE, LUST AND PIXIE DUST collide for these six individuals? LuAnn McLane does a fabulous job at maintaining the continuity between these three stories. As each story segue ways to the next, the overall plotline is further advanced. The Pixie remains a unifying figure as does the theme of country music. LuAnn McLane excels at creating snappy dialogue in LOVE, LUST AND PIXIE DUST. M.J., Sophia, and Savannah are all strong women but Brody, Logan, and Lucio are their perfect matches. The sizzling sensuality between each of these couples is sweetly done. The beautiful prose of Ms. McLane quickly engages the reader in each tale as love blossoms between soul mates. LOVE, LUST AND PIXIE DUST is a quick read that is perfect for curling up next to a fire on a chilly night. LuAnn McLane's tales will appeal to fans of chick lit who want just a touch of paranormal and spice in their stories. Fans of LuAnn McLane will appreciate the winning combination of stories found in LOVE, LUST AND PIXIE DUST. COURTESY OF CK2S KWIPS AND KRITIQUES

A romantic magical read that is out of this world!

Once again LuAnn McLane captivates her readers. This book is full of fun, romance, sizzle and magic! Three stories taking place in the cool town of Nashville, they portrait romances that are all tied together with characters that are individually unique. I love the way that she brings together the magic side of the story with the romance & matchmaking line. In this book the "opposites attract" becomes real, overcoming their differences to give her readers that happily ever after that we love so much if you don't believe in the magic of a romance, you will believe after this. This is a hot anthology you don't want to miss. Way to go LuAnn!

Another great and steamy read from Ms. McLane

Love, Lust, and Pixie Dust is a collection of three stories about the Barone siblings, who come from a family of psychics from New York. Each sibling finds love in the last place they expected to: Nashville, Tennessee. "Crazy" "Crazy" tells the story of Mary Jane Barone, a psychic from New York who has moved to Nashville and opened up Psychic Love Connection. She uses her psychic ability to help others find their soul mates. MJ has all but given up on finding her own soul mate, when in walks country singer, Brody Baker. MJ and Brody's chemistry and attraction to each other is instant and MJ knows he is meant for her. Now, with a little help from a mysterious friend named Pixie, she must find a way to make Brody believe in their fated love and in her psychic ability. This well-written story was laced with humor and hot, vivid, sexy scenes that will not leave the reader disappointed. "Honky Tonk Angel" This second addition to the collection tells the story of MJ's sister, Sophia Barone. A famous psychic medium, Sophia has come to Nashville to work on a book and to hide from a paroled murderer that she helped put away. Bar owner Logan Parks is instantly attracted to Sophia despite his skepticism over her ability. Logan must overcome his skepticism and accept all of Sophia in order to be with her or else ruin the relationship. With several laugh-out-loud moments and hot romance, this story is a standout in the collection. "Walkin' After Midnight" The final story in the anthology is about personal trainer Lucio Barone, MJ and Sophia's non-psychic brother, and Savannah Parks, Logan's sister. Savannah, an aspiring singer, is insecure about herself and her appearance. However, Lucio is instantly attracted to Savannah just the way she is and wishes to pursue a relationship with her. When Savannah gets a record deal and suddenly is too busy for a relationship, Lucio schemes to become her personal trainer so he can be with her. As with the other two stories, "Walkin' After Midnight" has its share of humor and steamy romance as opposites attract. Once again Ms. McLane has provided readers with a fun and sizzling read. Laced with humor and hot romance, each of the stories in this collection provides readers with an enjoyable experience. I would recommend Love, Lust and Pixie Dust to anyone looking for a sexy, humorous read with a touch of paranormal.

One Steamy Read !!

This is LuAnn's first venture into the world of paranormal and she has once again penned a wonderful, steamy and fun intertwining anthology. In CRAZY - we meet up with two secondary characters from Wild Ride. Brody Barker, a bass player in Travis Mackey's band from Hold On Tight, is now in Nashville promoting his own single which is about to be released. On his way to an interview and being drunk from too much celebrating he mistakenly enters The Psychic Love Connection Shop next door to Logan's bar. The shop is owned by Mary Jane (M.J.) Barone, the psychic from Worth The Wait. M.J. helps people find their love connection or soul mates but when she realizes that Brody is her one true love, she is stunned and wonders how she is going to convince him without coming off as a nut case. It doesn't help that she has a Southern ghost, that has a shimmering light, that only M.J. can see and who she has dubbed as "Pixie" always giving advice and interfering. When strange events, that Brody cannot explain start to happen the real fun begins. How can she make a believer out of Brody? How do you explain some things that even M. J. doesn't understand? But one thing is a given and that is the combustible heat that these two can generate when around each other, but can they overcome the obstacles that stand in their way?

WALKING AFTER MIDNIGHT - Is the story of Savannah Parks, Logan's sister, who is a talented country singer whose dream is a record deal and Lucio (Luc) Barone. Luc is the brother to M.J. and Sophie. He's a businessman who has a workout facility, filmed exercise videos, been a personal trainer to celebrities and now writing a book on fitness and nutrition, but through it all he is adamant that he does not have any psychic powers and to prove it has always been the bad boy. The heat between them is palpable right from the start. But when Savannah gets her chance, Luc becomes a complete jerk. He is so afraid of loving someone who is destined to be a star and having to live in the shadows like he has with his psychic sisters, much to Pixie's dismay. When he realizes what he has done he needs to come up with a plan to right things and hopefully g
