Absolutely delicious and wonderfully unique!

I have become addicted to Ellora's Cave authors. The erotic romance novels in this e-imprint are erotic, sensual and creative to the core! I decided to give erotic fantasy a whirl with Cheyenne McCray's Forbidden, the first installment from the Seraphine Chronicles. This novel sucked me in and didn't let go until its last page. This is an insatiable story of tasting the forbidden fruit. Liana has been chosen by the Sorcerer. She cannot mate with anyone other than him. The Sorcerer has got to get her before moon change... but Aric, the king of the Nordain, beings that transform from human to bird form, captures Liana before this happens. Liana cannot believe that the object of her fantasies and desires has come to her rescue. Aric, too, is attracted to Liana and he finds it difficult to resist the beautiful faerie girl with the moonlight tresses and luminous beauty. But Aric cannot succumb to Liana's seduction, for he'd endanger the fate of his people. But will he be able to resist the forbidden fruit?I just loved the erotic descriptions in this novel. This novel contains several of the best erotic scenes ever. They're delectable beyond words. And this is also one of the most unique love stories I've ever read. This novel takes fantasy into new heights! I just couldn't put this novel down. It enthralled me from beginning to end. The other parts of this series haven't been released in paperback, but I hope that Ellora's Cave releases them soon. I have become addicted to this author's work! I cannot recommend this beautiful fantasy romantica enough!

WONDERFULLY UNIQUE

Since I read a great deal this is truly a compliment. Ms McCray has created a world of wonder and magic. There are wonderful creatures, elves, shapeshifters, and a nasty villian. A prophecy about to be fulfilled and a world on the verge of change. If you love fantasy and even if you have never read any before you are going to love this book. In addition of the outstanding fantasy Ms McCray is one of the hottest romantica writers on todays market. Her love scenes will have you turning up the air conditioning or standing in a blizzard to cool down the heat. Her books are a nost buy for anyone wanting more spice in their romance.

New Author and New World!

Incredible! This is an author to watch and buy. The world created in this series [yes a series, and the author has a variety of titles available through Ellora's Cave] is unique, the author, however, brings it right to life for the reader...puts them right there with the characters.The characters! Well, they are multi-dimensional and, despite being something other than human, the reader has no problem relating to them and their triumphs and losses.Yes, this is erotic fiction - a perfect read for the person looking for real sensuality in with their romance. Yes, a must author and a must title!

First book of the Seraphine Chronicles series.

Tanzinite woman, wingless and wan Nordai of Power, of twins, we warnOne path to doom, enslavement and wallsWith unholy mating, Dair rises or fallsIt is the above prophecy that affects the characters in SERAPHINE CHRONICLES BOOK I: FORBIDDEN, by Cheyenne McCray.Liana is a Tanzinite female who was banished from her people, because she was born without wings. She, along with her heart-sisters Tierra and Ranelle, was forced to live and work among humans. Liana's gift as a Seer is her means of support until she can escape. Liana has been promised to mate Zanden, who is a Nordian betrayer, and now an evil sorcerer. Liana has a short time to escape this mating. In the meantime, Liana is strongly attracted to a stranger, a forbidden one.This dark stranger that so attracts Liana is Aric L'tiercel, King of the Nordain, Aric is bound to prevent the mating between Liana and Zanden by whatever means possible. He rescues Liana and then finds out his biggest fear - remaining in Liana's presence. She is forbidden. He is afraid he cannot resist her. Liana and Aric demonstrate an amazing example of heartmates. It was Aric at first who realized this. He'll do anything to be with Liana forever, even if it means giving up his kingdom. Liana and Aric are from opposing worlds. Though they were forbidden to each other, their passions were impossible to resist. It is as if they were two halves from the same stone. While safe in Aric's care from the evil sorcerer, Liana feels that, even though she loves Aric with every fiber of her being, she cannot allow him to give up his kingdom. So she flees Aric and is placed in immediate danger by Zanden's minions. She is again rescued and is bound to Aric as his queen. It is a dangerous time for them, yet, because Zanden is still on the loose. Liana has to deal with her past, and the fact that she has not seen her friends since her rescue. Liana's visions show her they may be in danger. FORBIDDEN was just the type of book to keep you turning pages. There are plenty of suspenseful elements here to keep your attention. The sensuality of this book is incredibly hot. The passion between Aric and Liana was very arousing, all the while, reading of the sensual Elves and their views on physical pleasures. Even with the Elvish influence, Aric and Liana remain completely devoted to each other. In FORBIDDEN, you'll be left looking forward to the rest of this chronicle. It continues with Ranelle's story in BEWITCHED, available now, and Tierra's in SPELLBOUND, May, by Ms. McCray.Robin TaylorIn the Library Reviews
