The Darkest Seduction by Gena Showalter Giveaway!

Possessed by the demon of Promiscuity, immortal warrior Paris is irresistibly seductive—but his potent allure comes at a terrible price.  Every night he must bed someone new, or weaken and die.  And the woman he craves above all others is the one woman he’d thought was forever beyond his reach…until now.

Newly possessed by the demon of Wrath, Sienna Blackstone is racked by a ruthless need to punish those around her. Yet, in Paris’s arms the vulnerable beauty finds soul-searing passion and incredible peace. Until a blood feud between ancient enemies heats up.

Will the battle against gods, angels and creatures of the night bind them eternally– or tear them apart?

"This book was a MONSTER to write. I actually had four false starts, and each one was about a hundred pages long. A hundred pages I had to (mostly) trash. And you know, when I created the Lords of the Underworld, I had no idea Paris, keeper of the demon of Promiscuity, would become the reader favorite.  He seemed so...well, happy, as though he had his life all figured out. He never had to worry about commitment, he could have any woman he desired—and did, every day—and he was doing what he’d been created to do: fight alongside his brothers by circumstance.  But so many readers saw beneath the cocky exterior to the wounded heart inside, and knew this strong man with the warped sense of humor craved what his friends were taking for granted: love and monogamy.  But...I had no idea how to give him those things.  He had to sleep with a new woman every night or he weakened and died.  And if that wasn’t bad enough...
  When I first introduced Sienna ...and killed her...I had no plans to bring her back. (Sorry Paris!)  I wasn’t her biggest fan, and honestly, she was meant only to be a means of torturing him on yet another level.  Of course, that backfired and tortured me! Afterward, Paris would step onto the pages only to mourn her or look for her and finally I could take it no longer.  I gave him a taste of what he wanted, hoping he would realize he didn't actually need it.  And yes, that too came back to bite me. I tried to write this book with a different heroine (you’ll actually get to meet her in the book) but Paris wanted nothing to do with her.  After those four false starts I mentioned, I finally allowed him to take over and that’s the story you’ll read.
To sum this story up in one sentence: Through life and death, war and peace, one man will risk everything to save the woman who once sought to destroy him...the only woman he craves..."
