DOM WARS Round 4
Lucian Bane
It's time for Lucian Bane to face those demons. This time around we get to see the vulnerability that Lucian keeps well hidden. Most of the series Tara was the one who needed to be protected and Lucian needed to break through those walls. This time tho Tara is the one protecting Lucian. It was a great change to the protector turn into the protected. Tara does it with all she has. I am so excited to see Round 5 and find out where Bane takes us next.

DOM WARS Round 3
Lucian Bane
It's time for Tara to face her Demons. I loved how Lucian was there for her. She was obviously in denial and he did everything in his power to force her to face those demons for her own good. Once I started this book I couldn't put it down till it was over. Then I missed it and need to start 4!! I can't wait to see what demons Lucian has in Round 4. This is a hot BDSM love story. Don't miss this great series.

Stolen Gifts Blog Tour [PROMO]
Whoever said you can’t go home again was right.
My name is Van, and my life isn't exactly going the way I'd expected. I moved far from home, away from everyone I know and love to avoid having to reveal my Gift...a Gift so strong it scares me. A Gift so strong I know people would try to use me for their own gain, regardless of how much it may hurt me.
A dear friend from my youth is getting married back home, and while I'm thrilled for her, I know what waits for me there--disappointment from my parents, and concern from my brother and friend. But worst of all, I have to face Caine, a man I have loved for as long as I can remember, who just doesn’t feel the same way about me.
Somehow, Caine and I find ourselves in the middle of investigating the mysterious disappearances of other Gifted people. When the two of us are abducted, I have to decide if I am willing to use my Gift to save us, even though doing so will reveal my abilities to Caine. Little did I know that using my Gift is exactly what the villain is waiting for…putting both our lives are in jeopardy.
Synopsis:
Having a Gift is hard. Keeping the ability to read and manipulate minds a secret from family and friends is torture.
Vanessa (Van) Lyons is terrified of her very powerful Gift of Mind, and has been hiding it from her family since she was a child. Her Gift troubled her so much that she moved away from everything and everyone she knew to avoid the possibility of the truth being discovered. She's stayed away for a long time, making excuses for staying put in her charming little cottage in a small town far enough away to be a comfortable buffer. But an invitation to the wedding of her childhood best friend Kelley brings her back home...and forces her to confront all of her fears and emotions. It also forces her to be face-to-face with the man she has loved since they were young.
Caine Moore is a handsome journalist with a playboy reputation. Seen frequently about town or in the tabloid pages with a different beautiful woman on his arm, he has become a completely different man from the boy Van grew up with. Tension builds between them as he sends Van mixed messages throughout the pre-wedding festivities, confusing her and making her yearn for things she's spent a long time convincing herself she could never have.
Caine has been working on a story, and has seen things he shouldn't see. In his desire to protect Van, he inadvertently pulls her into an intriguing but deadly case that puts her right into the killer's path...
My Gift is a part of me. It lays dormant, wanting to be used and I have deprived myself for so many years. On the rare occasions when my control slips, and I use it, I feel whole. Denying it for so long was splitting my soul into two. I realized that I would have to learn a new kind of control. Instead of complete dismissal, I would have to use it on occasion to keep my mind and soul intact.
As the guard approached the door of our prison, I placed a Suggestion in his mind that he would believe what I told him. I wasn’t changing the way he behaved, just what he was going to perceive at that moment. He opened the door and stood in the archway.

This is a great paranormal romance story. A young woman needs to find her sister. She finds help in Kidd. They fight magic, demons, and fight to keep everyone safe. The humor was nice and made the book that much more fun to read. The deep conversations between the main characters where moving and gave a deeper understanding to the characters. Can't wait for the next book seems this couple can get into a lot more trouble.

This is a fun horror comedy. What I loved most about this story where the three men that were getting ready for a Renaissance faire. They had such distinct and different personalities you really got a sense of their unique personalities. At times some of the jokes seemed a little forced, but would have probably come off better to me if there was just a little more cheese. I loved laughing at the characters!! Three guys in the woods you know they are going to get into trouble.I also enjoyed how it seemed not just the town people had a mysterious history, but the town itself. I hope to find out more about that!!

I love the time period that the book is focused on, 1940's. You can easily see that the research was done and details were very appreciated. I love the movies and theater, so this story was perfect for me. It did read slow for me. I think if the "hints" of the other timeline happened more often and highlighted it would have kept me curious and more focused on the story line. The romance across time was beautiful and if you're a fan of romantic novels this one should not be missed.

This book made me think. It's woman's journey of self discovery and facing her self loathing. It was dark and beautiful. I never considered the difference between a great love and a soul mate. Fisher defines them perfectly and demonstrates what it means to truly be a soul mate. This is a psychological thriller that will keep you guessing right to the end. It will tug at your heart and drive you to the edge of madness.

One More Chance
By: Julie Mishler
For one more chance
Would you?
Give up everything
To hear his voice
To see his face
What would you give?
For one more chance
To change it all
To fix the wrongs
Make things right
Could you forget the past?
All the pain he caused?
For one more chance
Would you risk it all?
To hear his laugh
See his smile
Can time heal?
All that has been broken?
For one more chance
Would you sacrifice?
To kiss his lips
And whisper his name
To feel his body
Would it still feel the same?
For one more chance
What would you do?
If you only knew
Things would change
He would be
The man he said he was
The man you feel in love with
The man you have missed and longed for
The man who held all your dreams
In the palm of his hand
For one more chance
What would you give?

Indulging in Irelyn
D.L. Raver
Zolt Hamil, a hot ex-football star turned lawyer. Everyone knows Zolt, men want to be him and women want him in their beds. A chance encounter with Irelyn during the life changing game stuck with him. All he wants are one night stands and doesn't even bother to pretend he knows their name. Until he see's Irelyn again. She just happens to be the daughter of his new boss at the new law firm. Once the meeting at the law firm happens I felt like the romance was rushed. I know Zolt is hot and everyone wants him, but maybe a little chase may have kept my interest more in the story. It's a hot story and you'll want a Zolt in your life too!

Chris Culver
This was an interesting multicultural investigative story. I enjoyed the main character's inner struggle. I haven't read any other in the series, so it may be that without that information I wasn't as prepared for this story. He come up on an accident and with an inexperienced detective he directs other officers on what to do on the scene. Ash is a Muslim alcoholic police officer trying to hold his life together. It's well written story and clearly has a direction. The cliffhanger I didn't love, but it does add to the mystery and makes me want to read not only the next book but the ones that came before it.

Wolf Sirens Forbidden: Discover the Legend (Wolf Sirens #1)
Tina Smith
I started this book reading the preface and it grabbed my attention immediately. I was very excited to start the story reading about how and why the town of Shade was cursed with werewolves. Lila Crane moves to Shade with her mother, who recently became divorced. At the beginning of the book it was mentioned that the mother was from this town and I hoped that her mother and her past would of been an interesting part of the book, however I didn't see much about the mother other than her not handling her divorce well. For me I think if the timeline was changed a bit it would of helped the flow of the story. Almost as soon as she got there she was invited to join the "popular" group. It felt like it was almost a week before she saw the principle and he suggested she should take a tour of the school with Tealy Sutten. It seems to me the tour and gossip might have been better if it was before the invitation to the cheer leading squad. The mystery and the investigation of the town would of been more of the focus. Of course I love mystery and intrigue so I may be bias. This is the first of the series and I'm curious to find out where Smith is going to take us.

Allen Zadoff
A young boy taken from the his life and recruited into The Program. I was so entertained reading this book. A 16 year old boy is an assassin or rather a "soldier", as he describes himself. The story is told by the main characters point of view. You get his innermost thoughts as well as his memories that he begins to regain. He has an inner struggle that I think most teenagers have. No one wants to just blindly do as your told and not ask questions. It was exciting and suspenseful right from the start and didn't let up will the end. I can't wait to read the next installment! Crime suspense and YA books are your thing give this one a try. It's great!!

This is the second time I've read work from Cross and once again I'm left stunned. I thought I knew where this short story was going, but it went in a direction I didn't expect. Well done once again. If you love erotica don't miss Paying the Rent or any of the other works by Cross.

Synopsis: If you'd asked me what love was two years ago, I probably would've said, 'It's this amazing feeling that obsesses and possesses you; it's what me and my husband currently have.' If you ask me that same question today, I'll say, 'Please get the hell out of my face.'
Claire Gracen's life is picture perfect. Her career as a marketing director is on the brink of being legendary, and her marriage to her high school sweetheart has never been stronger. No, wait. It has. It used to be amazing and fulfilling, but one day Claire realizes that she's been living a lie and her best friend and husband have committed the ultimate betrayal.
Broken and depressed, Claire is in need of something new--new city, new job, new friends.
When she happens to attract the interest of the sexiest man she's ever met, a man significantly younger than her, she immediately turns him down--only to later discover that this man is Jonathan Statham, self-made billionaire and CEO of Statham Industries. Her boss.
Jonathan Statham is unlike any man she's met before. He's used to getting whatever he wants--whenever he wants, and he isn't about to take no for an answer.
Sexy, unpredictable, and charmingly clever, Mid Life Love is a story that will captivate you, entertain you, and force you to fall deeply in love with the characters.

Synopsis: If you ask me if Jonathan Statham makes me happy, I’ll say ‘Absolutely. He’s the man of my dreams and I can’t wait to marry him.’ If you ask me why my ex-husband Ryan is currently one inch away from me—staring into my eyes and pressing his hand against my cheek, I’ll say, ‘I have no fucking idea…’
Claire Gracen finally has the life she’s always wanted: A career she loves, a man who’s willing to do any and everything for her, and friends that show her the true meaning of the word ‘friendship.’
As she and Jonathan prepare to make the ultimate commitment to one another and plan the wedding of her dreams, she quickly realizes that the hurtful past she left behind in Pittsburgh is a lot closer than she thought.
Sexy, unpredictable, and as charmingly clever as ‘Mid Life Love,’ ‘At Last’ will captivate you from the first page and never let you go.
