Night Embrace Review...


Setting: Modern New Orleans

"Night Embrace" spins the story of Talon, an ancient Celtic warrior who killed the son of the god Camulus.

Camulus cursed Talon, decreeing death for everyone he loved. Now a Dark-Hunter in modern-day New Orleans, Talon meets Sunshine, who is key to ending his curse once and for all. Not to mention helping him to save New Orleans from an ancient god bent on total destruction.

See original cover listed below. The cover shown here is the reissued cover that was done seven years ago.

~~~~****~~~~****~~~~

REVIEW!!!!

Talon and Sunshine are something special.  I am ever so slowly making my way through this series.

Talon is an ancient Celtic warrior who was chosen as a dark hunter.  When he is run over by a Mardi Gras float Sunshine comes to the rescue.  Sunshine is an artist who loves the color pink.  She is also a reincarnation of Talon's dead wife.  Can she save him and New Orleans in the end?  Can Talon finally have his wife back?

I have loved all of the books in this series so far.  There was a lot going on in this book but that didn't make it any less good.  I love Sherrilyn's skill at mixing so many different mythological layers in one series.  We meet the Dream Hunters in this book, as well as several Gods from different cultures, and Dark Hunters from different backgrounds.  The tale woven here is unique and mindblowing.  The characters were well thought out and the plot was amazing.  How she can keep so many characters straight is beyond me.  I look forward to continuing the series in the near future.

5 sunny stars!

Across the Horizon Cover Reveal...



“Sometimes love happens when you least expect it.” That was what my husband’s mistress told me the day I found out about their affair.

I didn’t believe it until five minutes later when mouth-watering celebrity chef Tanner Reese walked up, tossed his arm around my shoulders, and told my cheating husband to take a hike.

Tanner and I couldn’t have been more different. He spent his weekends at clubs, rubbing elbows with fellow A-listers. I spent mine in yoga pants with cheese boards and a glass of wine—or six.

Our relationship shouldn’t have worked, but it did. That is until Tanner proved to me that even though love happens when you least expect it...

So does heartbreak.

Originally from Savannah, Georgia, USA Today bestselling author Aly Martinez now lives in South Carolina with her four young children.

Never one to take herself too seriously, she enjoys cheap wine, mystery leggings, and baked feta. It should be known, however, that she hates pizza and ice cream, almost as much as writing her bio in the third person.

She passes what little free time she has reading anything and everything she can get her hands on, preferably with a super-sized tumbler of wine by her side.


Her Best Men Review...


It's the night before Katie's wedding - and all four O'Conner brothers can't help but desire the bride to be. 

The O’Conner brothers were my friends. 
Camping trips were always fun. 
Keeping each other warm with body to body contact. 
But, that's where it stopped. 
Because they were my brother's best friends. 
And, I was forbidden fruit. 

Now, years later, I'm back in town for my wedding. 
And, I see all four men approaching me. 
There's this mischievous look in their eyes. 
And, it’s hard not to notice their gaze lingering on my every curve. 

I must be imagining it, right? 
How can all four millionaire brothers want me? 

Then, the craziest thing happens… 
I call off the wedding on the night of my rehearsal dinner. 
Turns out my ex-fiancé is a cheating douchebag. 

Good thing I have four hot men to keep my spirits up. 
And this time nothing’s stopping them from living out their fantasies of me. 


Will this be the most unforgettable time ever?
Or, will we break a lifetime of friendships if my brother finds out?


~~~~****~~~~****~~~~

REVIEW!!!

While I enjoyed this book it took me a long time to get into and it felt like it dragged on forever.  I felt like the characters were well thought out and the plot was decent.  I struggled with the authors writing style most of all.  She had a good idea but it could use some work.  I love a good menage book and besides the writing style this book was no exception.  I can see myself reading it again at some point.

A broken man. A desperate woman. And a love that could save them both. 

William Bennett lost everything to a Special Forces operation gone wrong. A year of captivity and torture has stripped him of his strength and decency. At the edge of losing all hope, the one woman he's never forgotten storms back into his life, giving him more than just his freedom.

Cooper Reed has been a lot of things--soldier, sniper, spy--but she never thought traitor would be one of them. Now she can't stop running.

Exclusive Excerpt:

“Going somewhere?”

She swallowed and looked up at him, her irises a slowly expanding pool of blue as her eyes adjusted to the light.

“I—”

“Be very careful with what you say next, Cooper.” Will braced a palm against the door and leaned in close. “And do not lie to me.”

She closed her eyes, and her muscles went loose and tired.

“I have to do this,” she whispered, lines of sadness and resolution changing the contours of her face. “But you don’t.”

She tilted her chin and met his gaze head-on. “In thirty-six hours you could be stateside. With friends and family and the people who love you.” She put her hand to his chest when he shook his head. “You deserve to go home. To rest.” She trailed her hand down the front of his t-shirt, let her fingers trace the row of stitches along his side that he never forgot but mostly ignored. “So much has happened in such a short time. It feels like I found you on that mountain weeks ago. But it was days.”

He flinched when her thumb pressed against the wound.

“You’re still hurting, still healing. And I’ve asked more of you than is fair.” Her hand dropped away. “I had to. But the rest . . . I can do this on my own.”

He’d thought she was walking out on him. That she’d lied to him. That she didn’t trust him or need him.

That she’d played him.

But it was so much worse.

She was trying to save him. Protect him. By sending him home and going forward alone.

Like hell.

She actually had the damn nerve to smile at him. “I’ll be okay.”

And this from the woman who was worried about crossing a line she could never come back from.

There were a thousand things he wanted to say and a million ways to say them. He went with the simplest.

“No.” He dropped his chin, let his forehead touch hers, and breathed her in. There was nothing fancy about the way Cooper smelled. No French perfumes or high-end lotions. Just the simple scent of soap and skin and the lingering mark of a recent shower.

It was honest and fresh, and he knew if he led her back to bed and climbed in next to her that the same scent would be there to greet him, surround him, and lull him into a sleep he chased but rarely achieved on his own.

Maybe it had happened when she’d left Matías alive and let him take his vengeance. Maybe it happened when she’d found him, weak and trembling and unable to do something as basic as shave, yet seen only a survivor’s strength. Maybe it had been the culmination of a hundred little moments over a handful of days.

Ultimately, it didn’t matter where it had begun, because it all ended in the same place. Somewhere along the line, Cooper Reed had become synonymous with home.

Which meant Will couldn’t go back without her.

John Winchester's Journal Review...


Sam and Dean Winchester know all the secrets their father recorded in his journal. Now you can, too.

On November 2, 1983, Sam and Dean Winchester lost their mother to a demonic supernatural force. In the wake of the tragedy, their father, John, set out to learn everything he could about the paranormal evil that lives in the dark corners and on the back roads of America . . . and how to kill it. In his personal journal, he not only compiled folklore, legend, and superstition about all manner of otherworldly enemies but he also recorded his experiences—hunting the creature that killed his wife even as he raised his two sons.

Part prequel, part resource guide, John Winchester's Journal finally gives fans the ultimate companion book for Supernatural. It's all here: the exorcism Sam and Dean used in "Phantom Traveler," John's notes on everything from shape-shifters to Samuel Colt, Dean's first hunt, Sam's peewee soccer team . . . and John's single-minded pursuit of a growing and deadly evil.

~~~~****~~~~****~~~~

REVIEW!!!!

When I saw this on the shelf in my new public library I knew I had to read it.  I was not let down.

For those of you who don't know about Supernatural and the Winchester family then this would be a good place to start.  The book tells the story of how John, the father, became a hunter.  It talks about how he raised his sons, Sam and Dean, alone.  

The author did a great job in telling the story of John Winchester.  I look forward to reading more about the Winchester clan as I find more books based on the Supernatural saga.  I also really miss John Winchester, I liked him more than Mary.  Just saying.

Reawakened Review...


When seventeen-year-old Lilliana Young enters the Metropolitan Museum of Art one morning during spring break, the last thing she expects to find is a live Egyptian prince with godlike powers, who has been reawakened after a thousand years of mummification.

And she really can't imagine being chosen to aid him in an epic quest that will lead them across the globe to find his brothers and complete a grand ceremony that will save mankind.

But fate has taken hold of Lily, and she, along with her sun prince, Amon, must travel to the Valley of the Kings, raise his brothers, and stop an evil, shape-shifting god named Set from taking over the world.

From New York Times bestselling author Colleen Houck comes an epic adventure about two star-crossed teens who must battle mythical forces and ancient curses on a journey with more twists and turns than the Nile itself.

~~~~****~~~~****~~~~

REVIEW!!!

The love story between Lily and Amon is so fun.  Lily is a lonely girl who grew up in an upscale apartment in New York.  She spent a lot of her time exploring her favorite museum, The MET.  One day while she is doing some work in a quiet area where a new exhibit is going in something odd happens and her adventure begins.

Amon is one of three brothers who each play their part in saving the world from evil every few hundred years.  But now with archaeologist digging up the past he has woken up in an exhibit in The MET without his soul.  So he attaches himself to the first person he meets, Lily.  He now has to use Lily's energy to save the world and find his brothers.

Okay so I love Colleen Houck's story telling ability.  She writes amazing mythological stories and I love learning about new myths.  I struggled with this book the first time I read it, however on this re-read I thoroughly enjoyed it.  I loved the characters and the story.  I love Colleen's writing style.  The plot is unique and the characters were realistic.  I am hoping to read the rest of the series real soon.

Synopsis:

For the past year, Dru has put everything she has into building a catering business with her sisters. She’s so used to working until all hours of the night with them by her side, that when they both find love and move out, Dru decides to focus on something that has always weighed on her… finding the father who’d abandoned them.
For the past year, Mick has been living the good life. A content bachelor with his own business as a private investigator, he enjoys making his own decisions and answering to no one. When a couple of clients-turned-friends bring him in contact with Dru, his first thought is that he wouldn’t mind getting her alone for a night, but when she hires him, that spark is extinguished. Mick doesn’t mix business with pleasure.
When their lives become constantly entwined, Dru becomes more and more determined to get Mick to break his rules. Will they discover that even a seemingly perfect dish, can be made better with the right amount of spice, or are they too set in their ways?

EXCERPT: 

I shot a couple longing looks at Mick, who managed to make that suit look incredible, even though I’d just seen him in it at Tasha’s wedding. How come men could do that? Buy one suit to wear to every event, and get no flack, while if women got caught wearing the same dress repeatedly, it was like there was something wrong with her?
Why couldn’t I find the perfect dress … one that made me feel sexy, comfortable, and confident, and wear it to everything?
Stupid double standards.
I walked straight to the bar and ordered a Lemon Drop with the sole intention of getting drunk, and made a list of rules for myself.
You will not fawn over Mick.
You will not get so drunk that you throw up.
You will be the funny, fun, party sister, not the green with envy, bitter, crying in the corner sister.
And, again, you will not fawn over Mick. He made his policy clear, and I had too much pride to go after a man who didn’t want me.

Hollywood Playboy Cover Reveal...

 


Jessica

An entertainment journalist was the last thing I thought I would be doing.

I thought once I got my degree, I would be reporting on stories that made a difference, but now all I do is report on who broke up with who and who is dating who.

I was over it.

Then I got my next assignment.

He’s Hollywood’s bad boy.

He works hard, and he plays even harder.

He’s rude, he’s condescending, and he’s made it known he doesn’t want me on the tour.

With one month on the road with him, two things might happen

One, I may never work in this industry again.

Two, I may just be like everyone else and fall for Hollywood’s Playboy.

When her nose isn't buried in a book, or her fingers flying across a keyboard writing, she's in the kitchen creating gourmet meals. You can find her, in four inch heels no less, in the car chauffeuring kids, or possibly with her husband scheduling his business trips. It's a good thing her characters do what she says, because even her Labrador doesn't listen to her...

Finding Alexei Cover Reveal...



Spotting a hooker on a city street corner is not an abnormal thing.

Me bringing one home? Well, that's a first.
But this girl . . . She's in trouble.
And this asshole is not a guy she wants to go home with.
So I do the exact thing I shouldn't—I offer to bring her home with me instead.
She says this is the first time she's ever done this, which is adorably ironic.
Then proceeds to tell me a sob story about needing money to care for the baby who was left on her doorstep. That's when my stomach starts to clench. I think she might be telling the truth.
So I do what any respectable man would do—I take her home, stopping to pick up diapers and formula on the way—and discover that she was telling the truth all along.
Christ on a cracker.
I should have just kept walking.
I should have done a thousand other things except for barge into her sad life, offer to fix everything, fall for her . . .
