<span style="font-size: large;">The Hell's Bastard series is complete, but now you can read the spin-off.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">**************************</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">All Whisper wants to do is get to her wedding ceremony on time, but a series of unfortunate events delay her, leaving Edge to the groomsmen's humor. Because what he doesn't know would have him racing home to Whisper's side. It's not like he overreacts where his woman and his family are concerned.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Torque and Boxer are in charge of making sure everything runs smoothly, and the bride gets to say her wedding vows on time. But, Torque's being distracted by a golden-haired beauty who makes him think of sunflowers and shampoo adverts.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Torque's about to learn all about destiny, and Edge is about to learn that parenting can throw you curveballs when you least expect it.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Meanwhile, the nearly nine-year-old next door thinks he's in love—with Edge's daughter.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Oh, boy!</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Will Whisper get to her wedding on time?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Not. A. Chance.</span><br />

Whisper gives me the keys to the seven-seater black SUV, and I head toward their garage with my heels in one hand because I’m not driving with those ankle-twisters on. </div>
</div>
</span><br />
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I drop my phone onto the passenger seat and start to reverse when I hear the ‘<i>ping</i>’ I knew was sure to come. I ignore it until I am outside the gates, and the second ‘<i>ping</i>’ hits my phone demanding attention. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“I haven’t got time for this, boys,” I mutter to the air filling the cabin. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">My phone starts singing to me, and I know they won’t let up until I answer. I get it; it’s their job to question anything out of the scheduled day’s proceedings. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I pull over, place the phone in the holder and hit speaker, and start driving again. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Phoenix, sweetheart, how are you doing this fine day for an expensive wedding?” Devil’s proper Londoner accent greets my ears. He doesn’t wait for me to answer. “Shouldn’t all you pretty fillies and one bride be on your merry way to Cuvier Park by now? Where would you be taking your pretty self at this time?” </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Hi, Devil, and thank you for reminding me we all have a wedding to attend,” I say with a dash of sarcasm. “I’m just running a quick errand over to Boxer’s house, and maybe raid Slade’s closet, and then we will be good to leave.” There is all truth in what I just said. “Okay, goodby—” </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Slow down there, missy. Now you know my first port of call would be Boxer, but he’s conveniently not answering his phone and don’t think for a second that Zayne and I didn’t see the blood on the back of Boxer’s head and his torn suit because top-of-the-range-security-equipment, remember? Zoom technology is our friend. So, what should we be telling Edge? You know he’s going to cut our balls off if there is something we should be reporting into him where Whisper and his family are concerned and I’m very attached to mine.” </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Let’s just say Boxer took a tumble and smashed his head against the road and Evelyn has him covered,” I reply with another honest answer. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Whyyyy?” Zayne joins in on a sing-song. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Old age?” </span></div>
</div>

<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Try again, missy.” Devil’s tone means to coerce me into supplying more information. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“How about you boys let me drive safely without the chitchat? Boxer isn’t ignoring your call; he’ll be busy getting stitched up by Doc Evelyn, and I am sure he will keep you up-to-date with the shenanigans that have taken place when he gets some time. All is well, and Whisper will hopefully be back in the stretch Hummer within a half an hour, and yes, she will be getting word to Edge of her impending late arrival, and no, you don’t need to notify the groom about anything as Boxer will take care of what he deems necessary. Rest assure your balls will be safe from Edge.” </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“You know this is why Edge and Boxer pay us the big bills, don’t you, sweetheart? We are your friendly voyeurs making sure Whisper, and all the beautiful ladies and children don’t need us to call in the two men, Edge has stationed three blocks away ready to be notified if there are any issues,” Zayne enlightens me. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“This I don’t doubt, Zayne. All is good. We do have Torque here, and he’s quite capable and armed. Don’t think I don’t know he will have a weapon close by at all times. What I can have a guess at is you and Devil, are a bit bored and are looking for gossip, and I’m not about to feed it to you. You both know perfectly well Boxer will call you immediately if we need any protection. Now disconnect so I can get on with my errand, so Boxer has something clean to wear. It’s as exciting as a clean suit the reason I’m in the family SUV and nothing more.” </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Ahhh… so Doc won the bet,” Devil chimes back in. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">These men are always betting on the silliest things, not that I haven’t joined in a time or two. I’m just miffed I didn’t get an invite into the betting pool. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“I guess we can both leave you alone now, sweetheart,” Zayne pipes back into the conversation. He’s a sweet guy with boy next door looks. He’s got a swimmer’s body: broad shoulders with that whole tapered waist thing going on, which lends itself to a lean strength. His short blond hair often flops about in his face hanging over the frames of his glasses. He’s not as tall as Devil, who is at least six feet, three inches. He’s quieter than Devil and is very thoughtful. Zayne comes with old school manners. He’ll open the door for you, regardless of gender and he’ll be the first to offer to buy a round of drinks. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Damn, I was enjoying our conversation, missy.” Devil sounds more than a little amused. Devil is very good at what he does, and he knows he’s good looking. Think tall dark and devilishly handsome in that Henry Cavill way, although the guy looks like there’s Italian in his blood, but I’ve never taken the time to ask about his life. Devil’s a ladies’ man, and that gets old quick. At a guess, I would say he’s around twenty-seven-years old. He’s cocky and at times overconfident, but I know he would go down with the ship if it means saving every last woman and child. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">I’m a private investigator, and I’ve learned there are a lot of untrustworthy people walking around waiting to hustle and con their way through life. They are the dicks-of-society. Boxer and Edge trust both men, and that’s good enough for me. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">“Okay, guys, time to disconnect and I’ll give you a wave when I get back to the house.” </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Devil takes the hint and then I’m left with Sam Hunt on the radio and <i>Body Like A Back Road</i> to keep me company. </span></div>
</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">

</div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Ten minutes later I pull into Boxer’s driveway. A thought occurs to me. In all the shenanigans I bet nobody thought to keep Juan in the loop. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I’ve roomed with Juan’s hubby—Holland—in the past when they were relatively new to dating each other. At the time, I needed to give my twin brother, Retro, space to be with his girl, Birdie. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Shelby Nichols is an average woman who is married to the only guy she ever fell for. Her life is organized and predictable, revolving around her husband and two children. All that changes the day she stops at the grocery store for some carrots. As the cashier rings up her purchases, a gunman is busy robbing the bank inside the store. When a customer grabs the robber's mask, he is shot and everyone runs for cover. Everyone except Shelby, who finds herself face to face with the killer. The next thing she knows, she's lying on the floor with a bullet wound to her head. Luckily, the bullet only grazes her scalp, and she doesn't suspect any lasting effects until later when she suddenly 'hears' what people are thinking. With this uncanny ability, her life takes on a whole new dimension. Her kids think she's bossy and too old to understand them, but that's nothing compared to her husband. He says he loves her, but what is it about the redhead at work that he doesn't want her to know? As if that isn't enough, the gunman knows she can identify him, and he's out to silence her forever. In her fight to stay alive, she is saved from certain death by a handsome hit-man with ties to organized crime. This pulls Shelby even deeper into danger, where knowing someone's thoughts can not only hurt her feelings, but get her killed.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I bought Carrots in September 2014 and have only just read it and now the Shelby Nichols Adventure is a full-blown series. All the covers are so pretty. I do love them.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Who knew buying carrots could lead to a bullet graze to the head resulting in the ability to read people’s minds?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Shelby is a stay-at-home mum with two teenage children, well, one is twelve. Her husband, Chris, is a lawyer. Shelby pretty quickly gets mixed up in a whole pile of shenanigans which lead her to a confrontation with Ramos, Uncle Joey’s hit-man and standing in front of the mob boss and making a deal with him.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Let all the crazy begin.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The one thing I did enjoy very much was Colleen bringing to life the real-life complications of being married and being able to read your husband’s thoughts. I don’t know how many relationships could withstand that one-sided knowledge and come out the other end, not altogether unscathed, but still in love. That is opening up a <i>whole</i> world of hurt for the person who can read those thoughts, not to mention the invasion of privacy Chris had to deal with. I felt his pain, I really did. But at the same time, he was a bit of a PITA with his ignorance of Kate, the redheaded vixen in the office. I mean...really? Dude you’re supposed to be intelligent. He did redeem himself with me and his love for his wife conquering the hurdles placed in their path. Also, he gets a pass for the invasion of privacy his wife had to learn to deal with and try to control.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Uncle Joey... fear him or love him, he plays his part well. Kate is an excellent biatch. You will loathe her, which equals author's-job-done.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This installment is very silly, possibly a little eye-rolling and a tad predictable, but I will be coming back for more. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Ramos seems a bit of a knock-off of Ranger from Stephanie Plum, but I can live with Ramos if he can show me he’s worth adoring like I adore Ranger. #teamranger</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As per the Stephanie Plum series, you will be sure to be getting a car explosion. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I couldn’t rate this first installment any higher because I’m not altogether believing in Shelby’s character as much as I should be from this first installment. She did annoy me a fair bit with her choices and after reading so many Steph Plums, Ramos seemed a little transparent and I do fear a Chris/Joe-Shelby-Ramos/Ranger situation possibly coming over the horizon</span>. </div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">But I won’t know until I read more.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Assuming. Much.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Forensic psychologist Miri Fox travels across the globe when her now-employer, psychic detective, Quentin Black, calls from a police station in Bangkok and asks for her help.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">She arrives to find Black undercover inside a gang of local criminals, determined to discover which of them is killing street children and ritualistically burning their bodies inside Buddhist shrines. But Black isn't the only one with an interest in the crimes, and soon his investigations get the attention of the local sex traffickers, along with a crime syndicate out of Russia that doesn't appreciate his meddling one bit. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When Miri shows up to help, she manages to catch the attention of all the wrong people. Events quickly spiral out of control...until Miri soon finds herself the hunted. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The second book in the paranormal mystery romance series starring brilliant but dangerous psychic detective, Quentin Black, and his partner in crime, forensic psychologist, Miri Fox.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">What I so enjoy about this series is Quentin Black. Miriam Fox aka Miri is a great character and they make a great team, but Quentin is gorgeous to read. I will admit I do cringe when he begs for sex from Miriam when he is such an alpha character otherwise, but that is my only complaint. I hoped JC wouldn’t repeat it after book 1...but...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am gonna say the only reason I am not giving this installment 5 stars, is </span><span style="font-size: large;">because of</span><span style="font-size: large;"> the trigger scene. Not because it is a trigger scene because authors, by all means, go ahead and </span><span class="" style="font-size: large;">be</span><span style="font-size: large;"> brave with your content, but... (cue the dramatic music) I needed more than a shower and a few band-aids with the after-care.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">OMG!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This is a very graphic chapter where Miri is put through the most horrific things, for many days, over and over and...I'm not upset it's written so detailed, but I wanted her at least checked over afterward by a professional.</span><br />
<br />
<i><span style="font-size: large;">GOOD LAWD!</span></i><br />
<i><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></i> <span style="font-size: large;"><i>Holy shit on a pumpkin stick!</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">QB has people who he trusts and dude must need medical care at some stage of his long life, if not write one in, and make it a female doctor. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Seriously, I find this quite lacking and in need of sufficient words to make it better. A sentence that explains whether there are causes for alarm from diseases, pregnancy... damage within the inner girlie department. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Something!</i></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Don't get me started on what your mental state would be afterward.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">As I said, this is a very graphic chapter. It is brutal on Miriam. I can see a lot of readers have dropped stars for this, but I can only bring myself to drop a quarter star because taking that one chapter into consideration, compared to the rest of the story, I won’t dock more.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I just think if you are gonna go detailed and I mean DETAILED, then you gotta whip some more words out, JC. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Rant over.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We do get told Miriam is an ex-soldier and she has martial arts skills. I would like to see that side of her coming into play more. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Other than that, I am coming back for more as I do adore QB </span><span style="font-size: large;">teaming up with Miriam </span><span style="font-size: large;">and the sexual tension thrown in among the mystery.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>New Biker Romance series from New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, Victoria Danann. No cliffhangers.</b><br /><br />Two brothers, one a player, one a playboy, are on a crash trajectory with destiny and two broken hearts.<br /><b><br />BONUS PREQUEL INCLUDED: Intro to the Sons of Sanctuary MC. A Season in Gemini</b><br /><br />Brigid was a graduate student at the University of Texas. She had no trouble getting her thesis approved, but finding a Hill Country motorcycle club willing to give her access to their lifestyle was looking impossible. Then she got a lead. A friend of a friend had a cousin with family ties to The Sons of Sanctuary. Perfect. Or was it? <br /><br />What Brigid wanted was information to prove a proposition. The last thing she had in mind was falling for one of the members of the club. Especially since she was a feminist academic out to prove that motorcycle clubs are organized according to the same structure as primitive tribal society. <br /><br />Brash was standing in line at the H.E.B. Market when his world tipped on its axis. While waiting his turn to check out, his gaze had wandered to the magazine display and settled on the new issue of “NOW”. The image on the cover, although GQ’d up in an insanely urbane way, was… him. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><span style="font-size: large;">After reading the article, Brash threw some stuff in a duffle and left his only home, a room at The Sons of Sanctuary clubhouse, with a vague explanation about needing a couple of days away. He left his truck at the Austin airport and caught a plane for New York, on a mission to find a mysterious guy walking around with his face.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br /><br /><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;"><b>BOOK REVIEW:</b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">This is my second Victoria Danann read, my first being My Familiar Stranger, Knights of Black Swan # 1.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I really enjoyed the bonus prequel story A Season In Gemini. It is a great background introduction.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I did have a little trouble with Two Princes.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Two grown men going to one hell of a lot of trouble to play at essentially ‘The Parent Trap.’ It did feel a little…erm… what is the right word? Immature?</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I found it hard to believe an MC guy and a billionaire (twins) wouldn’t just straight up talk to their parents. It felt kinda lost on me the energy they spent setting it all up. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I have to rate this book in the lower range of 3.5 STARS as it just didn’t feel realistic that a billionaire couldn’t just straight up talk to his mother and an MC guy couldn’t just speak to his father about it. Not the way this story was written anyway. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">There was no obstacle put in the path of the twins to make them choose the path they took (swapping identities) only to do the big reveal and the parents didn’t have a major reason to not have told two grown men about their brother. There wasn’t like a dirty reason or anything. I think I was looking for some major reason for the whole shenanigans apart from the mother’s father which was kinda lame. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I needed there to be a real purpose to going to the lengths they did rather than just talking it out.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">There were other things like Brigid paying $250,000 for something so she could write her thesis. I don't care how much money a student has got, that just seems preposterous to think it's okay to spend that kind of money to get information for a thesis. If it's gonna cost you that kind of money, pick a new idea for your thesis. </span><div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">I get what Victoria was doing, but a little OTT. </span></div>

<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #a64d79;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This story starts off in one direction, and I actually forgot dragons were going to be involved and then we make an abrupt right angle.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Enter the dragons.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I did like the idea for this story. I do understand it is a shorter read, but within these pages, I would have liked a little more time spent in some areas.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I really liked Aaron’s character, but then…</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">I ended up pretty much forgetting about the lad in the first part of the story as I'm now in the reverse harem of sexy dragons, which I likey, maybe a little bit too much.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Hunter is a fave.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I did feel like Elizabeth's character was more seventeen than twenty-four, but then there is what felt like a rather large leap in maturity towards the end of this first installment, which I found a little hard to grab hold of.</span><br />
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I think what I am trying to convey is the story felt a little hurried along for me to be able to give five stars.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I will be reading more in this series as I am intrigued and the covers are beautiful.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I will say this was a good start, but for me personally, I would have liked the change in direction to have been a little more curved—not so hurried and more depth to Elizabeth's character and some of the scenes.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I did enjoy this read.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">"My name is Black. Quentin Black."</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Gifted with an uncanny sense about people, psychologist Miri Fox works as an off and on profiler for the police. So when they think they've finally nailed the "Wedding Killer," she agrees to check him out, using her gift to discover the truth.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But the suspect, Quentin Black, isn't anything like Miri expects. He claims to be hunting the killer too and the longer Miri talks to him, the more determined she becomes to uncover his secrets. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When he confronts her about the nature of her peculiar "insight," Miri gets pulled into Black's bizarre world and embroiled in a game of cat and mouse with a deadly killer--who still might be Black himself. Worse, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to Black, a complication she doesn't need with a best friend who's a homicide cop and a boyfriend in intelligence. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Can Miriam see a way out or is her future covered in Black?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Standalone novel. No cliffhanger.</span><br />

<span style="color: #134f5c;"><b><span style="font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This is my first JC Andrijeski read and it won’t be my last! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">OMG! I SOOO enjoyed Black In White, but just hear me out on a few things little ol' me as the reader/reviewer has to say below. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Miriam Fox aka Miri is a great character. To be truthful I thought—purely from this first installment of the Quentin Black Mystery series—that it should have been titled the Miriam Fox series. Miriam is the focal character, in my opinion, with a delicious helping of QB on the side. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Quentin Black…OMG! I LOVE Quentin. He is such a great character. Well done JC! There was only one time where I was physically shaking my head and pulling a NOOOO face when he did something.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I do love Nick as well. He was a little too determined about one thing and kinda let his professionalism be swept away, but I really like him in Miriam's life.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I’m not going to say much more than that because I reckon you need to dive in and read for yourself. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am gonna go a little crazy here and still give it 4.5 stars even though I (personally) felt it was too darn easy to pick the baddie. It was a bit of an eye-roll for me when we got to the da…da…da…daaaa... big reveal. This I usually take stars off for and I think quite rightly so as a reviewer. If more suspects were thrown into the plot then it wouldn't be so darn easy.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I also felt at times the author (for me personally) wrote some plot areas too conveniently. What I am trying to convey is certain things happened more in the telling, rather than the showing and it was too convenient the outcome for me as a reader. </span><span style="font-size: large;">I would have liked more detail in those areas and it wouldn’t be filler-in, it would possibly enrich the storyline. I do have examples, but I don’t want to point them out as they are my personal issues I have. </span><br />
<div>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But each to their own. It could be a case of it's me and not you.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I really did love the bones of this story. Actually, I freakin’ loved the bones of this story and at the moment Quentin’s personality has totally washed the negative away for me. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This does not happen at all with me as a reviewer usually. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">There are so many more books in this series already written that I can hardly wait to dive back in. The cover designs are gorgeous.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I am still admittedly trying to work out the title meaning: Black In White. I have been pondering it and can't seem to nail the title. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">New edit: I think I just worked it out. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span> <span style="font-size: large;">I understand QB series is a spin-off of the <i>Bridge and Sword</i> series. I happen to have <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071DLLFPK/" target="_blank">ROOK</a> on my Kindle and the second book <i>Shield </i>is currently <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071HGC8DH/" target="_blank">FREE</a> (at the time of this posting). </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I do recommend meeting Quentin Black and Miriam Fox</span>. <span style="font-size: large;">QB is a new book boyfriend of mine.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">Tarot-reading artifact hunter Sara Wilde has had her share of tough assignments, but this one just might take the cake. When her newest client hires her to steal a fertility idol from an Amazonian sex-and-death cult, she finds herself south of the equator and shoulder deep in true believers, while Rio de Janeiro gears up for the closing celebrations of Carnival. </span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="font-size: x-large;"><span style="color: #3d85c6;">BOOK REVIEW:</span> </span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My first Jenn Stark read and boy did it get off to a fast run. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I <i>adored</i> this novella. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The writing is funny, visually descriptive and such a great idea for an urban fantasy series. There is very much a Charley Davidson vibe with the witty dialogue.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I love that our lead female character is a contract hunter of relics. She has a good heart and puts the money she gets paid to good use. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Sara uses tarot cards to help her along the way and the mysterious voice talking to her in her head, which is both sexy and intriguing assists in rather amusing ways. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This voice leaves us wondering who he is and why he is helping Sara Wilde get out of her predicaments. Think a conversation without Bluetooth. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">We do eventually find out his name and Getting Wilde will give you much more information on this mysterious voice. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">As far as this prequel novella, I did feel like I wanted to know a few </span><span style="font-size: large;">deeper facts regarding Sara, but it didn’t stop me from really enjoying Jenn Stark’s urban fantasy voice. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I personally thought this was a rather smashing FREEBIE I came across and quite the gem.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">The cover design for all the series is simply gorgeous.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">I feel some readers have been quite hard on Jenn's novella, but each to their own. If you are looking for a fun read with a guy that will leave you waiting for his big reveal, and you are open to some madcap, fast-paced relic hunting, then try it on for size.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Book 1, Getting Wilde is currently <a href="https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B012V6BUJK/" target="_blank">FREE</a> at the time of this posting.</span></div>

<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Wedding From Hell, Part 2: The Reception: As the wedding from hell continues, Anne and Danny find themselves walking the delicate balance between professional distance and explosive attraction.

<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I have to say, my motor is purring in anticipation for Consumed, Firefighters # 1 with these two delicious novellas under my belt.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Danny and Anne are gonna be explosive. Yeah… another pun totally intended.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Not much I can really say other than I highly recommend reading part 1 and 2 in these super short <b><span style="color: #bf9000;">FREE</span></b> novellas, which will leave you clicking the next page button looking for more… but there isn’t any.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">J.R. Ward’s voice is shining through with her descriptions of the crew of the 499 </span><span class="" style="font-size: large;">firehouse</span><span style="font-size: large;">. I love her Black Dagger Brotherhood series with a passion. I have dabbled in her Bourbon Kings and Fallen Angels series’, but not completed them or even felt the passion I do for BDB. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I can see already I am gonna have a lot of passion for the Firefighters series.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I want </span><span style="font-size: large;"><i>Consumed</i></span><span style="font-size: large;"><i> </i>now. I am already consumed by this new series and it hasn’t even started.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">October 2018 isn’t that far away… yeah, it kinda is.</span><div>

<span style="font-size: large;">A brand new ebook-only story from bestselling author J. R. Ward</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Are you ready for The Wedding From Hell?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Dear Reader,</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It's a classic recipe for disaster: Take one bridesmaid who thinks pink is the root of all evil. Mix with a best man who's hotter than a four-alarm fire. Add in their explosive sexual attraction, a nightmare bridezilla, two catfights, and an emergency call, and you have the wedding from hell! Come to get to know Anne and Danny, the hero and heroine of Consumed, and see their relationship go from friends with innuendo to holy-&*#-did-that-just-happen?! Is this the start of something good for them? Or just an erotic one-night stand that rocks them both but is never to be repeated? Only their hearts know the answer to that, much as their minds might disagree.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Happy Reading,</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">LUCIAN </span></b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am a Dragon Prince of the House of Smoke… and I am dying. </span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Five hundred years is truly enough for a man like me. A monster. Yet a ten-thousand-year treaty will die with me if I don’t spawn a dragonling to take my place. My two brothers are no use in this task. It falls to me, the eldest by a hair’s breadth, and yet, I cannot face the horror of another sealing. Another death. Another woman’s blood on my hands. </span><br />
<br />
<b style="font-size: x-large;">ARABELLA </b><br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I was saved from death in a dark Seattle alley by an impossibly beautiful man who swooped in on golden wings. Now he’s taken me to his lair, opened my eyes to a world of immortals I didn’t know existed, and given me an impossible task—find him a mate. Then, and only then, will he set me </span><span style="font-size: large;">free.</span><span style="font-size: large;"> </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">He needs her more than he wants; she wants him more than she should</span>;<span style="font-size: large;"> and the fate of both the mortal and immortal worlds depends on not just repairing their hearts, but finding a Love that’s True… </span><br />

<br /><br /><b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">This was my first Alisa Woods read and I really enjoyed meeting Lucian, Leonidas, and </span><span style="font-size: large;">Leksander</span><span style="font-size: large;">, the three dragon prince triplets.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">He and his brothers, princes of the House of Smoke, existed for literally one purpose—to keep the mortal and immortal worlds apart, as they should be.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Lucian Smoke was the crown prince of the House of Smoke. He was responsible for fulfilling the requirements of the treaty, which included finding a mate ASAP and producing a dragonling heir—or end up wyvern—on top of managing all things in the realms.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Arabella finds herself in a pickle in an alleyway and before long she finds herself in Lucian’s lair, striking a deal with the crown prince.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">All truths may not have been disclosed. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Alisa throws in a few villains to spice up the pages and make us want to know more about Zephan the Fae Prince and Tytus, the leader of the House of Drakkon.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">Not least the House of Drakkon, an unsavory nest of black dragons that had been plaguing the city and battling with the House of Smoke for years.</span><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I will be coming back for more because I gotta know what happens in this series. The writing was really good, I just </span><span style="font-size: large;">would have liked more depth to this first installment in the plot, but I still enjoyed Kiss of the Dragon. I just found some things a little too convenient. I think that is a fair comment to make.</span><div>

<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Grim Reaper Charley Davidson is back in the twelfth installment of Darynda Jones' New York Times bestselling paranormal series, The Trouble with Twelfth Grave.</b><br /><br />Ever since Reyes Farrow escaped from a hell dimension in which Charley Davidson accidentally trapped him, the son of Satan has been brimstone-bent on destroying the world his heavenly Brother created. His volatile tendencies have put Charley in a bit of a pickle. But that's not the only briny vegetable on her plate. While trying to domesticate the feral being that used to be her husband, she also has to deal with her everyday life of annoying all manner of beings—some corporeal, some not so much—as she struggles to right the wrongs of society. Only this time she's not uncovering a murder. This time she's covering one up.<br /><br />Add to that her new occupation of keeping a startup PI venture—the indomitable mystery-solving team of Amber Kowalski and Quentin Rutherford—out of trouble and dealing with the Vatican's inquiries into her beloved daughter, and Charley is on the brink of throwing in the towel and becoming a professional shopper. Or possibly a live mannequin. But when someone starts attacking humans who are sensitive to the supernatural world, Charley knows it's time to let loose her razor-sharp claws. Then again, her number one suspect is the dark entity she's loved for centuries. So the question becomes: Can she tame the unruly beast before it destroys everything she's worked so hard to protect?</span><br />

<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I do love a good Charley Davidson tale that comes with all the crazy shenanigans and side stories to solve, that ultimately weave back around to cross over the finish line = ending of each book. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I-see-dead-people-Charley, Reyes, Cookie, Ubie… the list goes on of main and sub characters that will inevitably make you snort and giggle in your snuggly reading space.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">One book after this one and I feel like there is space for things Darynda has to reveal with Charley and this mega thing she is and…and…and…</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Like WOW! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">My head is spinning.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Okay, so I did love this installment—how could I not? </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I figure I’m a relatively smart person, but I gotta say, I am a little *blinks rapidly* about the Reyes side of this story. I totally get what Darynda was doing with Reyes and his </span><span class="" style="font-size: large;">God</span><span style="font-size: large;"> self, but erm…*whispers* I kinda got a bit *cocks head on the side like a puppy* when it came to the <i>why</i>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">OOO yes. The why. The reason. The big reveal.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">It may be a case of it’s me and not you, but…*scratches head* I might need a Dummies 101 explanation from Reyes what he was up to this installment from his perspective. I got what he told Charley, I watched what he did throughout the pages…but the ultimate reason, I kinda get, but me being me, wants more detail for</span><span style="font-size: large;"> that reason. It felt a little unresolved the answer, considering what Charley’s hubby got up to. I might be thinking too hard about it.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">*rubs chin with an eyebrow raised*</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Putting that aside, I read this series because I LOVE Charley and crew and I want to laugh and I do. I love Reyes like every other reader and he just bakes my cake for me.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Darynda has to have a spin-off planned…surely. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Beep and ...</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I mean she can’t leave us with nothing after book 13.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I mean she simply can’t.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Well, she could, but I think there must be more coming.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">Fingers crossed.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">One day, I’m nobody. The next, I’m a witch. And I’ve caught the attention of three smoking hot demons. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I left home to start over, to escape a world I never fit in. I soon learned that my past was a lie. My parents suppressed my magical abilities and tried to make me forget my true nature. They almost succeeded. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Now my real grandmother is back in my life and teaching me the craft of our people. After living my whole life without magic, I feel like a blind woman seeing for the first time. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But three devilishly handsome men are saying there’s more to my story. I see them everywhere, even in my dreams which are starting to feel like distant memories. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">They say I’m not an ordinary witch. My grandmother says not to trust them. Who do I believe? </span><br />

<br />
<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW: </span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I’ve been scrolling about on Amazon in the paranormal romance genre and picked Witch’s Dawn up for .74c US. The cover caught my eye. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This is a short story at 130 pages and in saying that, I did feel I would have liked a touch more of the story moving me a little more into the series in this first installment to latch onto. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Now, I know some readers aren’t overly pleased with the <i>erm</i>… way Crystal has written the </span><span style="font-size: large;">religious tones to this story, but that would be the triggers she adds at the bottom of her blurb. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">You just gotta look at the series title 'Unholy Trinity' which gives you the first hint, things are gonna go a little in reverse (no pun intended).</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />I’m a person that believes anything is possible and I don’t put a label on it. So that is where I stand with religion. I’m not batting for the devil team though. I am thinking along the lines that there is something out there waiting for me when it’s my time and I’m being very open to what is waiting for me on the other side. I am hoping it is all good though and we get to meet up with family members and everything is rosy. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Having said that, I do like how brave Crystal is and I will say <i>unique</i> in bringing a different spin to the reverse harem storytelling. Sure it might trigger some readers and I also understand why that would be so. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am going with how I felt about reading this first installment and even though I did pull one of those <i>oOOookkkaaaay</i> </span><span class="" style="font-size: large;">types of faces</span><span style="font-size: large;"> in certain parts, it is a fictional story and I am basing my review on the quality of what I read. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Not if it made my eye twitch a few times. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Ash, Raum, and Sal would be the spunky demons and Deja would be the twenty-eight-year-old chickie-babe who does not know what she really is until… </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">Raum, the one with the shoulder-length dark hair and a raven tattoo on his forearm spoke first. His eyes, dark and deep as a midnight lake, gleamed mischievously. He was the troublemaker, the one I really had to watch out for. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">Sal, the one with the stunning green eyes and auburn hair took the seat on the other side of me. His power was the most volatile, ready to strike at any moment. The aura surrounding him crackled with energy that felt like a mixture of simmering rage warning me to stay away, and fiery passion daring me to come closer. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;"><span style="font-size: large;">Only Ash remained </span><span class="" style="font-size: large;">standing</span><span style="font-size: large;">, the quiet, aloof leader of the bunch. He regarded me with icy-blue eyes that burned with curiosity and seemed to take in every detail of me. A hand stroked his short blond beard thoughtfully. The motion made him look like some wise Viking scholar who also happened to be tall and broad enough to go into battle. </span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Anywho in reverse harem style, the demon lads get a little sexy with Deja and she starts to kind of </span><span class="" style="font-size: large;">awaken in little bits along the way</span><span style="font-size: large;">. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: large;">“Deja,” one mouth growled possessively against my throat. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">“Who are you?” I moaned, barely able to breathe with my pulse hammering so hard, my insides so hot on the verge of exploding. </span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Once you've read this story, the cover art reveals a lot more. This I likey.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Overall I did enjoy this short read, but this is just the tip of the iceberg. I'm looking forward to knowing more.</span><br />

<b><span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW: </span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I was drawn in by the beautiful cover art for my first Linsey Hall read...One click! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I really enjoyed meeting Ana and Lachlan and the whole cast of interesting characters, including the Cats of Catastrophe. They are this fun trio of sidekicks. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The first chapter starts off fast-paced as we follow, Ana, a Dragon God, whose magic hasn’t developed fully yet as she battles demons and anything else thrown in her path during the trainee obstacle course, in Edinburgh. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Undercover Protectorate Institute is dedicated to helping supernaturals with problems that were so dangerous the magical government didn’t want to handle them. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Ana Blackwood is training at the Academy to eventually graduate and join the Protectorate like her sister, Bree, who joined the Paranormal Investigative Team. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Enter Lachlan Munroe. He has a job that needs all hands on deck, including the trainee, Ana. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000;"><span style="font-size: large;">The man standing at the front was insanely beautiful—in a raw, powerful kind of way. He had to be well over six feet tall. Though he wore dark jeans and a black jacket, it wasn’t had to see that he was built like a boxer. </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">But his face… </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Like a fallen angel, here to deliver justice. But a dark angel, with black hair and eyes. Handsome, yet a tiny bit scary in his perfection. </span></span> <br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I really like Lachlan’s character. There is this </span><span style="font-size: large;">insta</span><span style="font-size: large;">-attraction and naturally, he picks Ana to work closely with on a retrieval mission. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Sparks fly, hearts flutter. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Ana is intelligent and has a good heart. She works well with Lachlan at her side and when she needs to, takes the initiative. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">I sprinted around the pool, naked as a jaybird and way too close to getting hit in the face with my own boobs. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This book is a page-turner where visually I saw it all play out well in my mind. The action and battle scenes were choreographed well and painted an exciting picture in my mind as it all played out. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I have not read the other Dragon’s Gift series’ as yet, where some of the sub characters that pop up in The Druid # 1 have their own stories. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Dragon’s Gift reading order is: </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Huntress (Cass Clereaux) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Seeker (Del Bellator) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Protector (Nix Knight) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Valkyrie (Bree Blackwood) </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The Druid (Ana Blackwood)</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Linsey wrote this first book in The Druid series as though I didn’t have to know the characters from the previous spin-off series’ to read this one. Usually, I would read in the best reading order the author recommends, but this time I decided to go a little crazy and be a rebel to my own rules.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I do love what I read about Bree’s character in this book, so I am keen to read The Valkyrie series next.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Overall, I am excited to read more of Linsey’s work.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;">Half-bloods with Thierry’s skill set are given two options. They can join the conclave’s marshal program, or they can pack their bags. Turn down the job offer, and you’ve just shredded your residency pass for the mortal realm and booked yourself a one-way ticket to Faerie.<br /><br />Texas is the only home Thierry has ever known, and she’s not going anywhere. Even if it means following in her notorious father’s footsteps as a peacekeeper. But pinning on the badge opens her eyes to the fact sometimes fae need protection too, and that sometimes humans are the real monsters.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
<span style="font-size: x-large;"><br /><b><span style="color: #45818e;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I’ve not read any Hailey Edwards before Dog with A Bone. I picked it up because A) It was a freebie and B) It is a short read. I’d just come off reading two books, one after the other, 400+ pages each, and I needed a short read in my system. Hailey’s book caught my eye, while scrolling about Amazon (not that I needed to look for any more books to purchase if you knew how many I have on the cloud).</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This story starts off with a brief jaunt in the scrapyard where Thierry passes her cadetship and becomes a marshal. In the scrapyard opening scene, I meet Shaw and Mai and then after a few days off… (no spoilers here)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Bam! Marshal Thackery (Thierry) of the Southwestern Conclave was reporting for duty and receiving OJT (on the job training) with Marshall Shaw on Monday morning. Then we are rushing head first into a case, that wasn’t a whodunit. I was looking forward to having some suspects, throwing about other characters and getting into the thick of it, but it didn't actually go that way.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I did enjoy this introduction to Thierry and Shaw and a rather erm… confusing start to this series. When I say confusing, I am not easily confused, but I kept feeling a bit baffled as to the rushed world-building and the Richardson case. I felt like I was missing some pieces and I was floundering about, but I kept rolling with the story and then my eye was twitching because I felt a bit lost with the speed and lack of solid world-building to put me in that comfy place. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Finishing the ebook, the end book matter actually states: Dog With A Bone is a prequel to the series in the sense that the novella cuts a hole into the ceiling of Thierry’s past and gives us a glimpse of those first steps that set the events of the trilogy into motion one year later.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Cool. I appreciate those words from the author. I think I would have preferred to get to know Cadet Thackery a <i>lot</i> more in this prequel and the hints dropped by the author between Thierry and her instructor having some sort of crush or something that happened during that cadetship.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">Thierry is eighteen and Shaw is…I may have missed his age, but he is a lot older or felt that way in this prequel. Not that that matters.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">I feel I missed actually getting that introduction into Thierry and her cadetship at the marshal academy. It was totally a glimpse and then we were onto the Richardsons without really learning much about the world the author has created and those hints of something between Thierry and her instructor.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I have purchased several more books by this author from her other series' as well as this series for me to sink my reader teeth into. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: large;">I did like the action and I do like Thierry and Shaw. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I enjoyed this read and I will be onward bound for more Hailey Edwards’ books in the future.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">The Others freed the cassandra sangue to protect the blood prophets from exploitation, not realizing their actions would have dire consequences. Now the fragile seers are in greater danger than ever before; both from their own weaknesses and from those who seek to control their divinations for wicked purposes. In desperate need of answers, Simon Wolfgard, a shape-shifter leader among the Others, has no choice but to enlist blood prophet Meg Corbyn’s help, regardless of the risks she faces by aiding him.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Meg is still deep in the throes of her addiction to the euphoria she feels when she cuts and speaks prophecy. She knows each slice of her blade tempts death. But Others and humans alike need answers, and her visions may be Simon’s only hope of ending the conflict.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">For the shadows of war are deepening across the Atlantik, and the prejudice of a fanatic faction is threatening to bring the battle right to Meg and Simon’s doorstep… </span><br />

<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: red; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This series is raved about and gets so many five stars and glowing reviews, and that is absolutely freakin’ fantastic!</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I do personally find it very, very slow-paced.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I am addicted to reading the series…but not a lot happens inside each book for such thick books.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">But I’m addicted.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This series is so different, and it really is Simon’s series, he kinda owns it with Meg playing side-character, even more so in this installment, but yet she is the reason for the series. But this story was also shared with Monty and Lizzy.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I don’t have any quotes that stood out and that annoys me because I feel as though I should have some.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Visually I see everything so clearly, but it is like a slow stroll in the park the action side to the story, and that kinda bothers me too for a paranormal/urban fantasy read. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">There was one fighting scene that stood out for me. Simon got hurt, shit went down, and tragedy happened. But Meg is still giving out sugar cubes, sorting the mail and thinking about her feelings for Simon. Now the girls have banded together to help the other Blood Prophets survive outside of their previously controlled existence.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Simon is a smart wolf, but he seems so clueless with Meg. He owns a bookstore, he needs to order in a self-help book on ‘How to have a relationship’ and have a thorough read. I get that Anne is showing us two individuals having a hard time working out how to hold hands and what it means, but, this is the third book in the series. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Time to grab that hand and… well, we are halfway there. ;)</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I like the introduction of the mysterious ‘other’ above Simon and the da…da…da…daaaaaa moment.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I feel as though I need a break and will continue Marked In Flesh at a later date.</span><br />
<br />

<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: x-large;"><b>BOOK REVIEW:</b></span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Another blood-thirsty installment in the Jack Daniels series, with a villain worthy of being labeled a top-notch psychopath.<br /><br />J.A. Konrath gives the reader enough detail for our minds to grab his gruesome descriptive, tuck it under our arm, and act out our own scene visually coloring it in technicolor.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Yuuuumee. </i><br /><br />Konrath is very good with letting our minds take the reins and letting our own imagination disgust ourselves with what we see from his pages of villainous debauchery.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">Little side stories are weaving in and out of Bloody Mary. Jack’s partner, Herb, is having a mid-life and he’s not handling it well. <br /><br />Mr. Friskers has his moments of stardom with his catty behaviour—pun intended—and Harry, who I am not sure if I should like or hate, is there to assist using his own brand of assistance.<br /><br />Throw in an ex-husband; a mother who is trying to rekindle/do a little matchmaking; a necrophile, and a very patient Latham (boyfriend), and Jack finds herself up to her eyeballs in blood, sex, and fears. <br /><br />Sometimes you can tell (don’t hit me with a pillow) when a male author is writing a female lead character because of the lack of emotion in said character’s inner layers. I hope that came out right. Jack can be a bit blokey sometimes, and that is great, but sometimes you want a little more of what is underneath. Her job does come first but unlike Eve Dallas from In Death series, there is that layer underneath we get to see, even though her job also comes first and she is in a male-dominated, tough field. Eve is both feminine and also tough as nails. She is better than some males in her field at what she does, but she can also show us the other side of her personality. <br /><br />Latham was a bit of a doormat in this story, and Jack acted a bit like a guy with her attitude towards the ex-husband turning up and her current boyfriend and how she should go about juggling those two.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><i>Wrong!!</i></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-size: 11.0pt;"><br /></span></div>
<span style="font-size: large;">What J.A. does so well, is getting inside a psychopath’s head. He is really good at the descriptive and the inner workings of their mind.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;">This series is dark, unapologetically gory and comes with banter in good and bad taste, and I am ridiculously addicted.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">There is no action without consequence…</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Dani O’Malley was nine years old when the delusional, sadistic Rowena transformed her into a ruthless killer. Years later, she’s tough, hardened, yet achingly vulnerable and fiercely compassionate, living alone by her own exacting code. Despite the scars on her body, driven by deeper ones carved into her soul, no one is more committed to protecting Dublin. By day, she ensures the safety of those she rescues, by night she hunts evil, dispensing justice swiftly and without mercy, determined to give those she cares for the peace she has never known.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">There is no power without price…</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">When the Faerie Queen used the dangerously powerful Song of Making to heal the world from the damage done by the Hoar Frost King, catastrophic magic seeped deep into the earth, giving rise to horrifying, unforeseen consequences–and now deadly enemies plot in the darkness, preparing to enslave the human race and unleash an ancient reign of hell on Earth.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">There is no future without sacrifice…</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">With the lethal, immortal Ryodan at her side, armed with the epic Sword of Light, Dani once again battles to save the world but her past comes back to haunt her with a vengeance, demanding an unspeakable price for the power she needs to save the human race and no one—not even Ryodan who’d move the very stars for her—can save her this time… </span><br />

<b><span style="color: #45818e; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br />
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">“Keep the light shining in your heart; death is a hungry darkness. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">It </span><i style="color: #bf9000; font-size: x-large;">wants</i><span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;"> to swallow us. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">You’re different and will always be misunderstood</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">— never let that touch </span><span style="color: #bf9000;">you. </span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="color: #bf9000;">You’re a terribly real thing in a terribly false world.”</span></span></div>
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Be still my heart.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This book was ALL the stars for me and then some.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Just lay on your back under a clear sky and look up, and that is how many stars.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Ryodan and Dani… I <i>love</i> them. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I've loved them so hard since <i>Iced</i>.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I got so upset when Burned wasn’t about Ryodan and Dani—but, I got over it. I didn’t realize until I was heavily into the book and my dynamic duo were hidden under Mac and Barrons.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">This book was <i>everything</i>. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The emotions.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">I kissed him with the rainbow-colored shattered hopes and dreams of a child betrayed in ways too damaging and numerous to count, and I kissed him with the yearning to be the one making joy blaze from his eyes.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">The deeper layers.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">“Ah, Dani,” he said tightly, “you beat me. You tell me what to do. I seem to have forgotten which of us is the man. Perhaps you need a reminder.”</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Finally, Ryodan and Dani.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: large;">The second thing baffles me. I often feel like crying. I’ve wept on his flawless, crisp shirts more times than I care to remember.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">“Because I understand,” he murmured, staring down at me with those glittering silver eyes. “And I can take it. I wasn’t sure about the happiness, though. Nice of you to clear that up.”</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">“What part of ‘stay out of my head’ didn’t you understand?”</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">“Your face, Dani. Everything you feel is on it. I rarely need to delve deeper.”</span></span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">“Ah, Dani.” Ryodan touched my cheek, brushing a stray curl back and tucking it behind my ear. “Men can be bloody bastards. But not all of them. Don’t let it shut you down. Be fearless. Don’t be afraid to fall. Taste it all.”</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Dani has so much heart to give. I adore reading her. I loved her fourteen-year-old self in Iced, and I loved her more in High Voltage.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">So cool finding out Ryodan’s full name. Totally suits him.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Christian. So glad to see you again. I can see more storyline opening up from what we are shown in this book.</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">"Scotland is enchanting. And now I know why angels have wings. It's their reward."</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Dancer, and his Mega. *<i>sniffles</i>*</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I was faltering a little with my enthusiasm for this series since Burned, probably because I felt burned by Dani and Ryodan disappearing after Iced and being replaced again by Mac storyline. This book made up for it. The writing is superb. The ‘feels’ will stab at your heart. </span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">“Never. Tell. Me. I. Don’t. Care. You can fling any insult you want at me, but not that one. Never that one.”</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">A quote that hit my heart deep.</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #3d85c6; font-size: large;">“Prolonged grief is self-mutilation; a blade you turn on yourself. It doesn’t bring them back and only keeps you trapped in misery.”</span><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">Very hard to find that off switch.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I need more Dani and Ryodan. There are so many secrets to discover within High Voltage, and they will make your heart hurt and fly.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;">I highly recommend this book. Simply amazing storyline.</span><br />

<span style="font-size: large;"><b><br /></b></span> <span style="font-size: large;"><b>Lights. Camera. Inaction. </b><br /><br />Ivy Wilde, the laziest witch in the West, is still entangled with the Hallowed Order of Magical Enlightenment. That's not a bad thing, however, because it gives her plenty of excuses to spend more time with sapphire eyed Raphael Winter, her supposed nemesis. And when he comes knocking because he needs her to spy on the latest series of Enchantment, she jumps at the chance. Hanging around a film set can't be hard ... or dangerous ... right?</span><br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span>
<br />
<br /><b><span style="color: #a64d79; font-size: x-large;">BOOK REVIEW:</span></b><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">When you have a fling after a night of drunken Karaoke, things always seem a little emotionally messy afterward.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Winter and Ivy basically act like teenagers. LOL. They are unable to have an adult conversation about what happened, instead, Ivy resorts to taxi stalking.</span><br /><br /> <br /><br /><span style="color: #bf9000; font-size: large;">If Adeptus Exemptus Raphael Winter, with his lapis-lazuli eyes which could stop a herd of stampeding women in their tracks, happened to be finishing work around this hour…</span><br /><br /> <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I did have to google lapis-lazuli and it is a very nice color. But all googling aside… these two are kinda cute the way they behaved. </span><br /><br /><br /><span style="color: #3d85c6;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b>lapɪs ˈlazjʊlʌɪ,ˌlapɪs ˈlazjʊli/</b></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">noun</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">a bright blue metamorphic rock consisting largely of lazurite, used for decoration and in jewelry.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">a bright blue pigment formerly made by crushing lapis lazuli.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">a bright blue color.</span></span><br /><br /> <br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">One thing leads to another and Ivy is back on the job, but this time undercover in Scotland, working as a runner for the T.V. show she adores, <i>Enchantment</i>.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Think Survivor, but of the magical kind where everybody playing seems to get a role, some a little </span><span style="font-size: large;">deadlier than others.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Ivy sees the bitchier side of being on a reality show while doing some super sleuthing with Rafe. Naturally, with shenanigans-a-plenty, the writing ensures the pages will turn rapidly.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">I liked the curveballs thrown in and the whodunnit is hard to pick this time around. The obvious is <i>too</i> obvious.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Brutus ups his ‘</span><span style="font-size: large;">tude</span><span style="font-size: large;"> in Star Witch and you can’t help wanting to read more of him among the pages. He is rather a cheeky little guy.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">Rafe is becoming more of a rule-breaker around Ivy, mainly because she’s already breaking the rules so he has to go with the flow.</span><div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br />Star Witch is fun, witty and easy to read.</span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">And <i>oh… my</i> to that ending!</span></div>
