Book Description THE ELEVEN--an alliance of ultimate predators. Primal, lethal, irresistible. THE PROPHECY--an ancient Mayan prediction that the world will end on 12-21-12. THE PREY--where can you hide from pure evil? Kelly Maloy opens her car door to much more than a great looking stranger at the Houston airport. Terror, desire, and a horrible truth climb in with him. She's only supposed to drive Ty Endeka around the city for a few weeks. Too bad no one tells her that once day fades she'll become part of a battle fought in the darkened streets with an enemy that isn't human. And the sensual man who feeds her fantasies hides a soul that gives new meaning to animal magnetism. Eleven Gods of the Night... The only creatures more deadly are the ones they've been summoned to destroy.

Love this new series by Bangs September 3, 2008 I've always enjoyed reading Bangs books for the humor factor alone. This new series "Gods of the Night," doesn't have the tongue in cheek funny her previous books have, nevertheless it didn't stop me from finishing it off in one night. It is very reminiscent to Sherrilyn Kenyon's Dark Hunter series in that there is the mysterious leader with what seems to be ultimate powers controlling the activities of blood-thirsty warriors and the love of their lives have to overcome some harsh test of her love to "marry" them. But that is where the similarities end. These Eleven have powers that I can easily say I have NEVER read of before. Get ready for this...they have the souls of DIONOSAURS, and can produce their souls in a manifestation around their bodies for fighting and protection.
I definitely recommend this one!
Great start to a series! August 22, 2008 I wont go into the plot because others have done such a fantastic job. I will say that this was a good book and I can not wait to learn and read more.
5 stars August 5, 2008 For sixty five million years, the Eleven have waited for this time, the time when the world would be poised on the edge of a violent change, one that would wipe out mankind, unless they, the protectors of humanity, could triumph against their foes. Now, with the long prophesied event upon them, it is up to Ty Endeka and his ten "brothers," for want of a better description, along with Ty's driver, Kelly, to prevent what would amount to Armageddon. For her part, Kelly had no idea what she was getting into when she accepted the job to chauffeur the sinfully handsome man, or any idea what he truly was. She did know Houston could get strange, but as she enters Ty's world, she finds out exactly how weird. Her planet is on the line here, and now, so is her heart. Ty is not an ordinary guy; in fact, he's so different that even if he saves the world, Kelly's looking at a broken heart, but she still has to risk it all.
***** This is a complex book, one that is tough to sum up without letting the cat, complete with sharp fangs, out of the bag, and that would absolutely ruin your enjoyment of this marvelous novel. Ms. Bangs can be relied upon to deliver a story worth her readers' time and money, but she truly reveals her range of ability in this one. We are used to light comedy from her, and it's there, but coupled with high drama, action, and concepts that are brand new, at least to me. Her hero is like nothing you've met before on the printed page, and I seriously doubt elsewhere either. As a native Houstonian, I can add in that she captures the city itself well, too, and a couple of places where she mentioned supernatural goings on taking place, I had to think, "You know, that could explain a bit." *****

Highly recommended August 2, 2008 I won't go into the plot here because others have already done it so well. I will say this is a huge departure for the previously funny Bangs. But I guarantee her fans will not be disappointed in this compelling read.
Another Can't-Put-Down Read! July 22, 2008 It takes a lot of courage to set aside well-loved characters and a writing style that launched you onto the Bestseller lists but Nina Bangs has done just that- with amazing success!
Eternal Pleasure is the first of eleven `Gods of the Night' series. Delving into the dark and serious side of paranormal, Nina has created an incredible new world full of original plot points and surprising twists-so much so, I am unable to summarize without ruining the story for you. Hint: She pairs a predator alpha-male with a perfectly normal human female, throws them in life-endangering situations with breathtaking frequency and- uh yeah- it's Nina; LOTS of sexual tension! Will they save humanity in time? I'm not telling, buy the book.
Suffice it to say this is a can't-put-down page turner (warning: if you're reading it pool-side, be prepared for a second-degree sunburn!) Congratulations Nina!
