SOFIA'S LOBO by Lauren Blades Copyright © LAUREN BLADES, 2008 All Rights Reserved, RED SAGE PUBLISHING, INC. REVIEWS: Sofia's Lobo - Lauren Blades Overall rating: 5 HEARTS! Sofia Tijerina is the host of the television show This Old Haunted House and she's returned to her old stomping grounds of Juarez, Mexico. She hopes to capture the area's local legend, La Llorona, on film for her show. While it's a heart-breaking case that took place only a few years ago, it would be fabulous for her ratings. The ghost of a woman who allegedly murdered her children for a lover, then killed herself when he spurned her, supposedly appears each year on the same night -- the anniversary of the deaths. The only thing that could hinder Sofia in her efforts to document this spirit is Antonio Valdes, the lover she left behind in Juarez six years before. She loved Antonio and had him to thank for her career in a way. He was a werewolf, and her first experience in the secret world of the paranormal. Without him, she might never have went after her position on a ghost hunting television program. But now seeing him again brings old wounds to the surface, especially when he's dead set on seducing her. Even more troubling, Sofia discovers a chilling connection between Antonio and the ghost she's there to film. Could Antonio have anything to do with the horrible events of the night the woman and her children died? Sofia's Lobo promises romance and suspense -- and it delivers. I was absorbed by this tale of lovers reunited beneath the shadow of a horrible night. The characters really came to life for me and the author fleshed them out with so much emotion that I wasn't able to set the story aside until I finished. Everything about Ms. Blades' tale rang true from the snappy dialogue to the depiction of a non-white couple without all the annoying cliches. The sensual scenes were well written and perfectly suited to the two main characters whose genuine love and desire for each other never truly diminished. Equally impressive was the surrounding story of the local ghost and the way the author tied it to her characters in a meaningful way. The resolution of the story was incredibly satisfying and had me smiling through tears. This story and this new author are a wonderful addition to Red Sage and I'll be anxiously looking for more stories from Ms. Blades. ~~Cameron Foster - THE ROMANCE STUDIO 5 STARS! Sofia's Lobo by Lauren Blades Sofia hosts a TV show about real life supernatural events called This Old Haunted House. She is back in Juarez, Mexico because of La Llorana, the story of the crying woman of the Rio Grande. The ghost of Maria Suareza is seen walking along the bridge looking in vain for her lost children who it is said, she allegedly murdered for a lover who rejected her when she told him what she had done. In despair she threw herself into the river where she drowned. Sophia hopes to find out exactly who the apparition is and to capture it on film if possible. She runs into Antonio Valdes who had been her lover six years ago. He is a werewolf, and she has him to thank for her success in television. Until her affair with him, she hadn't believed in anything paranormal. He is set on seducing her and wants her back in his life. She is afraid because of the secrets that he kept hidden from her. Sofia while at the bridge experiences a paranormal phenomenon. She sees the ghostly figure of Maria Suareza and she watches while another apparition of a tall man with dark hair appears next to Maria. Who is he? Was he the lover who'd rejected her? Why is he there? Sofia soon discovers a connection between Antonio and the female ghost. Could Antonio be the man responsible for Maria’s death, and the death of her three children? Lauren Blades writes a beautiful story of romance, mystery, and shape shifter werewolves. I was so caught up in the story that I had to finish it. You are drawn into the plot where the characters are truly in love, and where a ghost is tied in with the tale. This is a sad story, but ends in a satisfying and happy way. I truly recommend Sofia’s Lobo to readers that enjoy reading a good ghost story. ~~~Lauren Blades - Manic Readers Review To My Reader: I can't begin to express how thrilled I am to share Sofia and Antonio's story with you. He's a sexy werewolf, she's a ghost hunter and television personality. Together they're steaming up the Rio Grande as they try to unravel the mystery of La Llorona. Enjoy! EXCERPT FROM SOPHIA'S LOBO: Jerking the menu out of her grasp and flinging it to the side, Antonio captured her hands in his. Sofia trembled in his grip, she couldn't help it. Just that simple touch ensnared all of her senses, making her body storm to life in a carnal way. "What if I told you that everything would be different now?" His fingers caressed her hands with butterfly strokes causing the heat pooling low in her belly to build. "No secrets." "Right." Sofia shook her head at him even as her traitorous mind started plotting out how it would work. It didn�t help that her body was fast becoming one big quivering mass of want. No, she couldn't hear this. She wouldn't take his words to heart. "Antonio, my life is totally different now. I've come a long way from the girl who was the weekend anchor of the local news. I have a very successful show and it's important to me. Why should I give all that up just because you say things will be different now?" "Why would you have to give it up?" Don't do this to me. Don't give me options. Do you have any idea of how close I am to just straddling you here in this booth? After all, most everyone had already seen her panties. "Well, I'm hardly ever home for one thing. I travel extensively as you know since you've watched the show." Antonio nodded. "And?" "And? A relationship where I'm home two days out of the month at the most?" He cocked a sable brow at her. "It's always like that?" "Not always but often enough." "What else?" Shit. He was dead serious about this. "What about the fact that I'm the host of a ghost hunting, paranormal seeking television show? What happens when they find out that my significant other would make a great special on lycanthropy?" Antonio smirked at her. "Maybe it would boost your ratings." "Shut up." Sofia would not lose control here. She had a major story to grab. Under no circumstance would she allow Antonio distract her from this. "It's not going to happen so stop." "Why?" "Because I don't want this." "Yes, you do." Damn him. She did still want him. But she'd be damned if she'd tell him that. "I can't." "Can't or won't?" "Both." Lifting one of her hands in his, he brought the tender flesh of her inner wrist up to his warm lips. That alone almost brought her out of her seat. When his tongue snaked out to tantalize her skin with slow, wet lashes, she thought her control, which was tentative at best right now, would snap. "Give me one night then." His dark eyes locked with hers, bright with the same desire that raced through her veins. "Just one more night with you." ABOUT THE AUTHOR LAUREN BLADES Lauren Blades has been reading romance since she found the secret stash in her grandmother's house.
