Catalina, Queen of the Nightlings

Volume #1 Cleopatra's Pearls

by

Now, I know exactly what you’re thinking, “Not another vampire.” Yes, all the signs are there, but I adamantly refute the title. I am a Nightling. Not any insignificant Nightling though. I am Catalina, Queen of the Nightlings. Still confused? It’s easy to understand why. Fangs, bloodsucking power, and ageless beauty. Yes, I possess all the telltale signs of your classic vamp. Alas, I am not one of those adrenaline-sucking egomaniacs.

So, what exactly is a Nightling, you ask? Over the centuries we have been called many names. Succubus, Lorelei, seductress, mantrap, siren, enchantress, lady of the night, the list goes on and on. Any of those ring a bell? Let me explain.

The realm of bloodsuckers is not as black and white as the world has always thought. To be truthful, besides our choice of chemical needs, we are quite alike. Let me break it down so there is absolutely no confusion.

I am an ancient creature. I was born as I am. Others have been made, but not me. I have fangs that retract, which are capable of extracting the hormone oxytocin from the human bloodstream. My razor-sharp fangs work two ways. First, they extract the hormones I need to survive, and second, they pump back in the blood you will most definitely need. However, I have complete control as to whether I give back the fundamental fluid. I usually do. Usually.

Oxytocin is the hormone that is secreted when the body feels pleasure, arousal, or passion. Enter the succubus. The hormone keeps me strong, fed, and eternally beautiful. On the other hand, vamps extract adrenaline from their victims, which is why they use fear to extract the chemicals they need. And yes, they have the power to return the human blood as well, but they are a grumpier sort of monster.

Death does not come easy to either of us. Light, crosses, and holy water are completely useless. However, garlic does taint the blood, and vamps say it inhibits the manufacturing of adrenaline. I think they just like to whine about anything they can.

As far as I know, death only comes from dismemberment. However, my bones are as strong as steel, and my skin like marble. You really have to piss off one of your own kind to get killed. I generally try to avoid such situations. The phrase, “I’m a lover not a fighter” was originally coined by me.

 

REVIEW FOR VOL.1 CLEOPATRA'S PEARLS

 

 

A sensual, sexual, stimulating ride!

Caution: This book is not for the faint of heart. Catalina Purdy, the heroine in the story, has a truly insatiable appetite, not only for the chemicals she needs to survive but for sex too (both men and women). Her quest for the second pearl lands her in many compromising situations and eventually, straight into the arms of a past lover, Dorian- a male that really gets her blood pumping.

This story is a quick, enjoyable read. Vivid, action-packed scenes will draw you in if Catalina's wit doesn't. Catalina is a real, no-nonsense, Nightling with a good heart and readers will find themselves clamoring to be on her side and rooting for her all the way past the end of the book.

Catalina Queen of the Nightlings Volume 1 & 2
by J Lee Roberts

I haven't read an erotica book in ages, but boy am I glad I discovered this book, 'Catalina Queen of the Nightlings' by J Lee Roberts. This story is of the adventures of an immortal sexy seductress named Catalina who feeds her soul off of sexual encounters! The book is not only wildly tantalizing, but the story line behind all of her heavenly adventures were deeply captivating!! I just kept wanting to read more & see what happened next. It left me in suspense & kept me begging for more through & through!

Even though it's a very sexual erotica, it is written in such a way that brings a god & goddess type of mystical fantasy filled with love making that brings you into a world you could only dream of! I highly recommend this book to readers of erotica & even those who aren't. It'll bring out a side of you that may have been hidden away for years or even your entire life! I can't wait for Volume 3 to be out to continue on this sexy adventure!
