Chosen by Desire by Kate Perry
I'm a sucker for a fun hot romance, especially one with a touch of the paranormal, so this was right up my alley. I loved it. By the way, this is the second of the Guardians of Destiny, after Marked by Passion, but I didn't feel like I missed much by not reading the first.
Carrie is working on finishing her thesis and needs final proof before she leaves China: Wei Lin's journal. She ends up "borrowing" it from a monastery, along with another scroll, the legendary Book of Water. She just kinda got stuck, stealing is not something she would usually do.
Here begins the Book of Water, wherein lies the truth about man and energy. For energy is but a tool, good or bad determined by he who wields it... (pg. 44)

I read this book in May of 2008. At the time I wrote, "I honestly couldn't put this book down. I loved it- sex, love, adventure, danger, magic, all rolled into one."
Jacob (The Nightwalkers, Book 1) by Jacquelyn Frank
Since time began, there have been Nightwalkers——the races of the night who live in the shadows of the moonlight. Love with humans is absolutely forbidden, and one man makes certain to uphold this ancient law: Jacob, the Enforcer.
Jacob knows the excuses his people give when the madness overtakes them and they fall prey to their lust for humans. He's heard every one and still brought the trespassers to justice. Immune to forbidden desires, uncontrollable hungers, or the curse of the moon, his control is total...until the moment he sees Isabella on a shadowy New York street. Saving her life wasn't in his plans. Nor were the overwhelming feelings she arouses...
I want to thank Susan Kearney, author of Lucan, for taking a page in my notebook today to tell us a little about why she loves fantasy and about her Pendragon trilogy. Read on for a chance to win Lucan, the first in the trilogy. I just finished it yesterday and it was great.

She’s a dragon shaper. She can morph into a fire breathing dragon. ...
