BLITZ with author Chandra Ryan
Hey
everyone! We are back together again … literally. For those of you
who remember, a couple of weeks ago I featured author Chandra Ryan
with her SciFi Romance Ulterior Motives. Today, Ms. Ryan is back with
an Erotic PNR. I had a lot of fun getting to know about her last book
and thought that it would be great getting to know a bit about
another one of her fabulous stories. Please allow me to introduce to
the blog, once again:
**CHANDRA
RYAN**
**BIO**
Being
from a rather nomadic family, Chandra Ryan loves to travel and meet
people. But she’s found that sometimes, like when you’re stuck
inside because of a good old-fashioned Southwestern heat wave, you
have to make do. Fortunately for her and her loving family, who don’t
like seeing her suffer from cabin fever, she’s found creating new
people and places equally as fascinating. Also, you’re a lot less
likely to spill your ice tea.

**BLURB**
Izzy
has lived between two worlds her entire life—one filled with magic
and darkness, the other populated by mundane humans. She was born
into the magical world of the Community. But sexy, forbidden DEA
agent Jacob belongs to the other. He has no idea her world even
exists.
But
that doesn’t mean he hasn’t noticed her. They’ve worked
together for the past six months, attempting to bring down her
drug-dealing half-brother while driving each other crazy with pent-up
desire. But now that it’s time to say goodbye, they both find it
impossible to let go.
After
one passionate night together Izzy realizes her mistake. She can’t
bring him into her world. She has to end things before she gets too
attached. When he refuses to leave, she must find a way to guide him
through the darkness.
Inside
Scoop: In this scorching urban fantasy, ink is thicker than

She’d
almost made it to the next section when a familiar face grabbed her
attention. He was wearing tight jeans and a black t-shirt instead of
the suit that she’d grown accustomed to seeing him in, but there
was no mistaking his smile. Or his lean, muscular physique.
As
if hearing her thoughts, he looked up. His gaze caught hers for a
second before he began making his way toward her.
“Isabella.”
“A—”
Realizing she was about to call him Agent Phinney, she stopped and
shook her head to clear it. “Um, Jacob. This is a surprise.” She
couldn’t help but wonder how he’d gotten past the guards.
He
smiled rakishly as he ran his fingers through his short black hair.
It was a gesture she’d become endeared to over the past six months.
“I know, small world.”
“What
are you doing here?” She’d expected to see him, but not
until the bust had gone down. And, try as she might, she couldn’t
think of a single good reason for him to be at the bazaar. Admittedly
it was difficult for her to think of anything at all given his
proximity. He was so close she could smell the spicy mint of his
shampoo and her arm would brush against his chest if she swayed ever
so slightly.
“I’m
on a date.”
The
words snapped her out of her haze. He didn’t seem to notice,
though. He was too busy staring at the voluptuous redhead several
people ahead of them whose singed fingertips hinted at fire
manipulation.
That
explained security. With someone like her as a date, they’d have
let him through, no questions asked.
“Funny,
she isn’t what I’d imagined as your type.” Izzy realized that
he could never be hers, not really, but she didn’t like the idea of
him being with someone else. Especially when that someone could
manipulate fire. In her experience, pyros were one of the more
dangerous types. They tended to run hot in all things—including
their emotions. “She looks kind of dangerous.”
“Although
I do go for the dangerous type,” he whispered with a playful wink,
“you’re right. She just happened to be in the right place at the
right time—here.”
Hearing
his words, a possible reason for his presence became painfully clear.
“Wait. Are you checking up on me?”
He
looked genuinely hurt. “I thought you knew me better than that. I’m
here as backup, nothing more,” he whispered softly.
He’s
human, he’s human, he’s human…The warning echoed softly in
the recesses of her mind. But as his fingers tucked a lock of her
hair behind her ear, it faded into silence.
“I
couldn’t live with myself if anything happened to you on my watch,”
he said.
I
am totally caught by the premise of this story. It sounds sexy,
mysterious, dangerous, and altogether entertaining. What did you all
think? Your comments are always a pleasure and I Love getting your
feedback. Would you read this book? Have you read Ms. Ryan before? Let
me know!
I
want to thank Ms. Ryan for being here with us again. And thanks to
all of you who keep coming back for more. If you were caught by what
you experienced here today, please consider purchasing a copy of this
book for yourself and showing your support for this author. I hope

wonderful day! I will be seeing you very soon. But until then ...
