A smoldering debut novel.From the time she was a child, Mona Lisa knew she was different—but she never knew how different until a man of otherworldly beauty entered her life.Publishers WeeklyOnce readers get past the silly premise of Sunny's sizzling debut-a humanoid race called the Mon re came to Earth from the moon 4,000 years ago-they'll find much to like in this intrigue-filled erotic paranormal. The "children of the moon" are ruled by "Queens," rare females whose ability to pull down the moon's rays allows them to heal rapidly and live 300 years. Gorgeous, shape-changing males protect, serve and have sex with the often ruthless Queens, who sometimes cruelly abuse them. After treating one of these males, Gryphon, at Manhattan's St. Vincent's Hospital one night, 21-year-old ER nurse Lisa discovers she's not only a part-human Mon re herself but also the first "Mixed Blood" Queen, Mona Lisa. Her human blood makes her impervious to sunlight and silver-the banes of the Mon re-and her latent powers pose a threat to the nastier Queens, who want to destroy her. Mona Lisa shares many traits with Laurell K. Hamilton's heroines, including having lots of hot sex for good causes, but mercifully without their kvetching and self-doubt. (Sept.)

\ From Barnes & NobleThe Barnes & Noble Review\ Readers who love Laurell K. Hamilton are sure to enjoy this strong, sexy paranormal introducing Mona Lisa and the people of the Monère. These non-humans are the exiled children of the moon, dependent on various warring Queens, whom they serve and mate with in exchange for prolonging their lives. \ \ We first meet Lisa as a lonely ER nurse in Manhattan, a perpetual outsider with unusual healing powers. She is strangely drawn to Gryphon, the wounded patient in Bed 8; and her healing powers confirm to him that she is part Monère and the first Mixed Blood Queen. Their flight from the hospital kicks off Mona Lisa's introduction to her real life and a new world full of enemies. There is the race to find the antidote that is poisoning Grphyon, the discovery and rescue of a long-lost brother, and the saving of her other protector, Amber, through sexual healing. This promises to be a great series to follow.
