Riveted by Meljean Brook (Release Date:  September 4th) - This series quickly became of on my favorites and I can't wait for this new installment.  How pretty is that cover?

Mate Claimed by Jennifer Ashley (Release Date: October 2nd) - How Iona is able to resist Eric Warden is beyond me.  I'd be more than happy to take the Shifter town alpha off her hands but it looks like Eric's not letting her get away so easily.  I'm looking forward to the chase!

Lord's Fall by Thea Harrison (Release Date: November 6th) - Dragos is the alpha among alphas but he has another thing coming if he thinks his mate Pia will bow to his requests.  I LOVED their first book and have been looking forward to this one all year.   Here's hoping for scenes with Peanut  :-)

Rogue Rider by Larissa Ione (Release Date:  November 20th) - From villain to hero, Reseph's (the horsemen Pestilence) book is going to be emotional one for sure.

Shadow's Claim by Kresley Cole (Release Date:  November 27th) - A spinoff of the Immortals After Dark series, I've been ready for the first book in the Decians series since it was announced.

Knight Awakened by Coreene Callahan (Release Date:  December 4th) - I've only the first book in Coreene's Dragonfury series but I like what I've read so far and I definitely planning to try out her new PNR series.  

Last Kiss Goodnight by Gena Showalter (Release Date:  December 26th) - I've yet to try a Gena Showalter series and be disappointed so as soon as I saw this beautiful cover I knew it would be
