2013-04-08T09:21:00.002-07:00

Well as you know guys I took a short break from blogging to have a baby, well you will be pleased to know that I had my little girl on the 9th of march. but unfortunatly things have took a turn for the worse and my little girl is extreamly ill and she is going to need a lot of my time.

So what with her being so ill and having other children im not going to have the time to blog any more ;(. im really sad to say good buy to all my amazing followers because iv had amazing time chatting with you all. but im afraid there is nothing I can do about it as my little princess must come first. If you are an author and you are waiting for reviews, I will get round to them but the reviews will only be posted on amazon and good reads but I cant tell you how long it will take to get to it. Im so sorry for any trouble this may bring to you but again there isnt much I can do at this point. If in the future I find things have changed I will happily start the blog up again. So watch this space I will keep you up to date.

love you all loads and thanks for following me.

REVIEW!!!!!

Title: The Hitchhiker
Author: Robert L Ruisi
Date Published: 1st February

Description:

The Hitchhiker is romance suspense thriller is about a young man who, through no choice of his own, found himself hitchhiking.
This is his story and the adventures he had along the way. It might not be quite what you expect!

Review:
Hank grew up on a farm, working on the land with his parents.things took a turn for the worse and the farm wasn't doing very well, the family had to sell off things to try and meet the dead lines.but this wasn't enough and Hanks family lost the farm and all there dreams for the future.

Hank set out to make it his mission to get back what his family had lost and worked hard to find the money, while doing so he meets Sal,

Sal is Hanks boss, who he ends up working weekends for as she has bought his old house and wants his help doing it up. As the two work together on the house things start heating up, or should I say steaming up. but it seems like Sal has something to hide because she might be one thing by day but by night she is something else all together.

above is just a quick over view of the book, there is so many twists and plots and some very steamy scenes. This is the first book of this kind that Robert has written and I think it was a really good attempt. it is very different from the normal children s books he writes. As soon as you read about Hank you will love him, all he wants is whats best for people and will do what ever it takes to get it. I was a bit unsure about Sal, I kind of felt she was taking advantage of a young boy lol. but maybe thats the mum in me jumping out.

I think if you like plot twists and a book that will keep you wondering then this is the book for you.

RATING OF 4 LIPS

Title: Child of War Rising Son
Author: Lisa Beth Darling
Date Published: 24th November 2012

Description

: On the verge of manhood, Raven's rampage continues as he begins the difficult path to Acceptance by his fellow Olympians. Out to prove he's as good, if not better than, any of them he bests the Trials set before him by Hades and Poseidon. This isn't enough for him, in his quest to prove to his Father, Ares, that he is an Olympian Raven preys upon the Mortals below Olympus in a time of great weakness. Settling for nothing less than Chaos, he enlists the aid of his Uncle Apollo and pushes the Mortals to pure anarchy when a global financial crisis leaves the entire world destitute, in ruins, and at each other's throats. Ready to conquer his Trials, take his place at the Counsel Table, and bring Ares the glory Cernunnos once prophesized, only one thing stands in his way; the night his Mother fell down the stairs.

Alena, her body asleep in Ares' bed for four long years, is lost deep in the clutches of a never-ending dream induced by Morpheus. After years of living an illusion and becoming Morpheus Wife, Alena discovers his deception and struggles to escape her prison. Morpheus has no intentions of ever letting her go. He'll fight to the death to keep her.

Apollo, ever the Man Behind the Curtain, pulls Raven's strings like a true puppet master. It's far too late when Raven realizes all he's done to please his Father actually makes Ares look guilty of destroying the Mortal World. A little Chaos and a little Anarchy aren't enough for the Golden God, in his on-going quest to destroy Ares, Apollo sets a plague loose upon the Earth. A bio-chemical weapon stolen from the United States Government at Area 51, known commonly as Major Falls. By the time the Olympians discover what's going on twenty million people are dead with the number multiplying exponentially every day.

With only one option left to each of them, Raven and Alena turn to their unlikeliest of enemies-- Aphrodite and Apollo for help. One night in the bed of the Goddess of Love can be painful but one night in the bed of the Golden God can kill and destroy all that Ares and Alena have built and endured. To ensure that her beloved Husband and her Son are not put to death she may have no other choice.

Review:

Raven is out to prove to his father that he can be acceptd by everyone. He passes the trials set for him but somehow thats not enough for him. he sets out and prays on the mortals below, with the help from his uncle Appollo he creates chaos for the world below.

Alena struggling living in an illusion trying hard to break free of the lies and deseption she has found her life to be. Married to Morpheus a ver y dangerous man who will stop at nothing to keep her where she is.

seeing he is wrong in what he is doing Raven see that Apollo is doing nothing other then pulling his strings to make his father look bad. but Apollo isnt happy with with just making Ares look bad, he sets a plague on the mortal world and hundreds of people are dead before the Olympians discover whats going on.

Overall view:

This is a story what gets you gripped right from the start. At the moment with being pregnant and tiered all the time I struggle to find a book that keeps me glued and doesnt send me to sleep but im happy to say this one I managed to read all the way through. It is filled with amazing characters that you either love or hate and they help you stay with them on there journey. I think this is a series that you really should try.

********************************************

Blue lights flashed off the undersides of leaves. Off the tall brick buildings. Off the stoic faces of New York’s finest. The cops formed a tight circle around a tarp-covered body next to a Dumpster. Its lid gaped open like the mouth of a shell-shocked witness.

After three months on a steady diet of bagged blood, the aroma of a fresh human kill hooked me by the nose and dragged me toward the crime scene. The humans around me could smell the stink of trash and acid rain and gritty city. But they couldn’t detect the coppery scent that made my fangs throb against my tongue.

Delicious. Seductive. Forbidden.

Bright yellow police tape cordoned off the entrance to the park. Spectators gathered in a tight clutch on the sidewalk along Central Park West. Their morbid curiosity clung to their faces like Greek tragedy masks.

I shouldn’t have paid any attention. I shouldn’t have stopped. And I definitely shouldn’t have pushed my way to the front of the crowd.

But the blood called to me.

Well iv not had time to read much this week so im giving you a teaser from a book series I love.

TRAILER TREATS!!

2013-02-07T01:38:00.000-08:00

Well guys and girls, im going to be starting a new weekly post. and its going to be for all the book trailers out there. I find this can be a good way to find out about new books. And I all so think these trailers might make you read a book you wouldn't normally try.

Now iv spoke about this series before but I really think this is a series you all should try.

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY!!!

2013-02-06T03:34:00.002-08:00

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Just typical. No love life to speak of for months, then all at once, every horny creature in the Otherworld wants to get in your pants. . .

Eugenie Markham is a powerful shaman who does a brisk trade banishing spirits and fey who cross into the mortal world. Mercenary, yes, but a girl's got to eat. Her most recent case, however, is enough to ruin her appetite. Hired to find a teenager who has been taken to the Otherworld, Eugenie comes face to face with a startling prophecy—one that uncovers dark secrets about her past and claims that Eugenie's first-born will threaten the future of the world as she knows it.

Now Eugenie is a hot target for every ambitious demon and Otherworldy ne'er-do-well, and the ones who don't want to knock her up want her dead. Eugenie handles a Glock as smoothly as she wields a wand, but she needs some formidable allies for a job like this. She finds them in Dorian, a seductive fairy king with a taste for bondage, and Kiyo, a gorgeous shape-shifter who redefines animal attraction. But with enemies growing bolder and time running out, Eugenie realizes that the greatest danger is yet to come, and it lies in the dark powers that are stirring to life within her...

This is my wow for the week, Iv been told alot about this series and I think it sounds really good.

TEASER TUESDAY!!!!!

********************************************

Beatrix caught a glimpse of forks and spoons scattering to the doorway, just before she was thrown bodily to the receiving room floor. The impact robbed her of breath.

Stunned, she found herself pinned to the carpet and covered by a heavy masculine weight.

Dazedly she tried to take in the situation. Christopher had jumped on her. His arms were around her head . . . he had instinctively moved to shelter her with his own body. They lay together in a confusion of limbs and disheveled garments and panting breaths.

Lifting his head, Christopher cast a wary glance at their surroundings. For a moment, the blank ferocity of his face frightened Beatrix. This, she realized, was how he had looked in battle. This was what his enemies had seen as he had cut them down.

This is a little Teaser from one of my favourite historical romance series. If you like Historical Romance then this is a series for you.

About the Book

An anthology of six stories, which will take you down a road of fear, excitement, confusion or suspense, each one ending with a twist. Will you guess the endings before you read them? One of my early readers kindly compared these stories to those of Edgar Allan Poe. As you can imagine, I was humbled by his words. The six stories: The House - newly weds take off on a trip, but stumble into an adventure of a different (or sexier) kind The Car Ride - a late-night drive in the rain turns to confusion and terror (or fear) for three friends The Camping Trip - a couple of hikers discover there's no smoke without fire in the forest The Night Out - Title - two lovers set on out a date, but fate takes an unexpected turn The Winery - a tour to take in the sights finds much more on the vine than grapes The Library - we enter the secret world of the avid reader

2013-01-30T00:34:00.000-08:00

Hi everyone, today im here with an amazing lady, J.S.Wilsoncroft. She is a lovely author who iv been talking to on facebook and I thought you lot would love to meet her and find out about her books. She has also said she would do a great giveaway, but you will find out more about that later *wink*.

About (Biography)

]

J.S.Wilsoncroft was born and raised in the small town of Curwensville, Pennsylvania. Her mother and father taught her to be strong and never give up on her dreams, even though as a teenager she wasn't sure what those dreams were. It wasn't until she was older that she decided she wanted some kind of job working with animals. So at the age of 23 she got her dog grooming license and has been grooming puppies ever since.

It wasn't until five years ago that she started writing. She woke up one morning with this story on her mind and as the day grew on so did the story. She finally decided to sit down at her computer and start typing. That's when her first book (unpublished) Roller Coaster Love was born. After that, writing stories came to her as easy as grooming dogs. In fact alot of her story ideas came to her while she was grooming. So with the old saying "Don't quit your day job" she literally takes it to heart.

To say the least, you will find in alot of her stories....a loveable pooch.

Now...J.S.Wilsoncroft has her hands full being a wife, a mother to two children and 3 yappy dogs, full time dog groomer and a part time writer.

"I love romance stories. I mean seriously...who doesn't love a good love story? Whether it's about a lonely widow, or a deaf girl, or an overweight teenager struggling to love herself before she learning to love a man. All my stories are from the heart and I hope you love them too as much as I do."

J.S. Wilsoncroft's first book is Roller Coaster Love. Athough she hasn't tried to get it published, she moved on to write many other stories, including The Unfaithful Widow, My Haunting Love, Fat Chances, Stupid Love, Forever Sixteen and Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree. She has a few short stories published called, Toothless, Jingle Bells and Puppy Dog Tails and Dorothy.

WAITING ON WEDNESDAY!!!!

2013-01-29T23:02:00.000-08:00

"Waiting On" Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted here, that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

New York Times bestselling author Gena Showalter is back with a breathtaking Lords of the Underworld tale about a warrior trapped by darkness and the woman determined to save him

Having endured weeks of torture in the bowels of hell, Kane wants nothing to do with his beautiful rescuer, Josephina Aisling. The half-Fae female threatens to awaken the demon of Disaster inside him—a beast he’s determined to kill, no matter the price.

Josephina is hunted by a brutal enemy—her royal family—and Kane is her only source of protection. He’s also the only male to ever set her aflame, and even he succumbs to the heat. But as they navigate the treacherous world of the Fae, they are forced to make a choice: live apart…or die together

Iv been waiting for this book for so long and now its not going to be long before its out. Im a little sad about the cover because it is even more out of style with the others and they just seem to be getting worse. But I have to say the cover wont take away anything from the story.

TEASER TUESDAY!!!!

2013-01-29T00:29:00.001-08:00

BE CAREFUL NOT TO ADD SPOILERS

********************************************

Skinwalkers are damn hard to kill. This one was shambling toward me again. I reached for the wind and raised my hands to direct it at the disgusting thing. The skinwalker stumbled. I hit it again and again with wind power, throwing sparks of lightning into the mix.

The skinwalker ran at me again, bent on destruction. I didn’t think my mother wanted it to kill me, but did it know that?

The creature made it back to the road. Instead of pummeling me, it turned and kicked my bike.

“No!” I shouted. That bike was my baby. This old girl and me had racked up a lot of miles. She symbolized my freedom, my independence, me. I grabbed a handful of lightning and blasted the skinwalker. Electricity arced around him, but he still didn’t die.

At times like these, I regretted riding away from Mick, my man of wild fire magic. I’d seen Mick burn up a skinwalker without breaking a sweat. Mick had made me crazy with his mixture of bad-boy charm, protectiveness, and elusiveness, but my time with him had also been the best of my life.

This is a new series to me and I thought it was going to be a bit like Rachel Caines Weather Wardens but I have to say its nothing like it but yet im still really enjoying it.

The Author im shouting out to is the amazing Rue Volley. here is what she has to say about her new books.

My newest releases have been a series called Double Gun Dealer, and I love them. It is based on Demon Hunter's and each short is the backstory on each Demon Hunter connected in the main arc. It is a conceptual idea I had to make a series that ran like a circle and brings you back to book one:) It also gave me the opportunity to write in male POV which I had not done before but loved it. Books one and two are out now on amazon and books 3-6 are coming. #3 "LIN" will be out Feb 1st, book #4 "LONDON" will be out Feb 8th and I am currently finishing up book #5 "IZZY" and then #6 "SAIGON" will round it out. My agent witll be shopping this series to anime companies this summer to see if anyone would be interested in bringing it to life. I have a deep love for anime and it would be a dream come true to see this series take the next step and become viual. Everyone who has read them so far as become addicted and that alone made it worth writing regardless of where the series heads too. This series is MALVS 18+

TREAILER TREATS!!!!!

2013-01-24T00:27:00.000-08:00

So this week im gonna intruduce you to two more of my favourite authors, Lily Graison and Kallysten.

About Kallysten

My most exciting accomplishment to date was to cross a few thousand miles and an ocean to pursue (and catch!) the love of my life. I have been writing for over fifteen years, and I’ve always enjoyed sharing my stories and listening to the readers’ reactions.

After playing with science fiction, short stories, poetry and fanfiction, I am now trying my hand, heart and words at romance novels and I am very excited to have my stories published as ebooks.

My first novels were published by Linden Bay Romance in 2005. The defunct Venus Press subsequently published a few of my short stories. Because so many of my stories are linked as series and part of the same universe, I decided it would make sense to have them all in the same place, which is why I decided to self-publish, first with Alinar then on my own. When I see calls for submissions that speak to my muse, I sometimes try for them, and was published this way by Samhain (Moonlust) and Torquere(Christmas Magic, The Thirteenth Halloween).

When I’m not writing – which isn’t all that often! – I devour books, work in my vegetables patch or at my real-life job, put small quilts together for friends, and try to exercise more. Where do I sign up for days that are 30 hours long?

You can contact me kally@kallysten.net if you have questions or comments.

Become my Friend on Facebook or ‘like’ my author page.

Follow me on Twitter.

I have a Goodreads account where I talk about how I came to write each book.

You can receive updates about my new ebooks, contests or free stories by subscribing to myNewsletter.

ILY GRAISON resides in North Carolina, a stones throw away from the Blue Ridge Mountains and a few hours from the Outer Banks. First published in 2005, her debut novel won a Reviewers Choice Award. The author of over a dozen published books, Lily writes in the Western, Contemporary and Paranormal Romance genres.

When not writing, Lily can be found at her sewing machine creating 1800’s Period Dresses or curled up in a chair with a book in her hand. To see some of Lily's dresses, visit herHobby Page.

These were my Teaser treats, iv read books from both authors before and I really enjoyed them, so I really think you guys should give them a try. xxx

Tegan is troubled because he doesn't want to let Elsie get close but finds it impossible to let her go. The two find that they have become a salvation for each other and they find a way to have a future together.

This has to be one of my favorite books in this series and Tegan is one of my favourite warriors. This book was really well written and has you stuck and unable to put it down. There were times when i wanted to give Tegan a smack across the back of the head and tell him to get a grip, but he came good in the end. I loved the fact the the match between Tegan and Elsie was just as much of a shock to everyone else as well as to them selves. Lara Adrian is an amazing writer and She has got an amazing series with this and I'm really looking forward to reading what going to happen in the next book.

I have to add that I feel really sorry for one of the warriors called Chase. he had his heat set on Elsie and had to cope with seeing her end up with Tegan. Roll on his book because that one is going to be a bit of a roller coaster ride.

Title: Kiss of Crimson
Author: Lara Adrain
Series: Midnight Breed
Date Published: May 29th 2007

Description: Bonded by blood and dark secrets, they enter a place of danger and infinite pleasure...
He comes to her more dead than alive, a towering black-clad stranger riddled with bullets and rapidly losing blood. As she struggles to save him, veterinarian Tess Culver is unaware that the man calling himself Dante is no man at all, but one of the Breed, vampire warriors engaged in a desperate battle. In a single erotically charged moment Tess is plunged into his world - a shifting, shadowed place where bands of Rogue vampires stalk the night, cutting a swath of terror.

Haunted by visions of a dark future, Dante lives and fights like there is no tomorrow. Tess is a complication he does not need - but now, with his brethren under attack, he must shield Tess from a growing threat that includes Dante himself. For with one reckless, irresistible kiss, she has become an inextricable part of his underworld realm - and his touch awakens her to hidden gifts, desires, and hungers she never knew she possessed. Bonded by blood, Dante and Tess must work together to thwart deadly enemies, even as they discover a passion that transcends the boundaries of life itself

Review!! In this book we meet Dante, he is a breed warrior, one of the hardest there is. He suffors from death visions and thinks there his own, so he has come to terms living with the other warriors and set on not having a mate. But one night when out on a mission trying to find a drug dealer who is dealing drugs to young breed males and turning them Rouge, he ends up really hurt, he escapes and looks for help. and help comes in the form of Tess. she is alone late one night at her animal clinic. and Dante lets him self in. unaware that Tess is a breedmate he helps him self to the blood he so desperatly need to survive.

Tess running from the past, sets up an animal clinic in a new town. working late one night her future changes, not sure if its for the good or the bad. Tess has to come to terms with her past and learn to deal with everything thats going on to move on. She is not sure Dante is the one to help her with that.

One night Tess finds her self in trouble and Dante finds that his death visions are not of his own death but that they belong to Tess. Dante and the gang set off to save her and puts a stop to the drug dealing scum who is behind it all.

I have to say I love this series. This is the second time reading this book and I have to say I enjoyed it just as much as the first time. Lara has created a whole new look into the vampire world and she is able to make your mind get drawn into the story as if you were living it. I felt my heart growing towards the characters and longed to help in there fight against the Rouges.

In this book we dont just learn about Dante and Tess but we get a closer look at the other characters who we will read about in other books. I love the whole family feel about this series. and I cant wait to move on to the next book

Bewitch

by Felicity Heaton

A vampire with a past stained with blood and a soul tainted with darkness, he is perfect in his self-control, never surrendering to his darkest desires. Now a beautiful witch in the shadowy fae underworld threatens to reawaken long denied hungers and tempts him with carnal pleasure.

Payne despises the incubus side of his mixed genes and refuses to give it free rein, but when the wickedly sexy Elissa offers him a possible way to help a friend, he finds it difficult to resist paying the price, even if it will be his undoing—one night of passion at her command.

Elissa is a witch down on her luck until Payne comes crashing into her life. The dangerously handsome male is the key to fulfilling a promise she made, but he is also forbidden, and surrendering to the wildfire passion he stirs within her means risking ruin and death.

When one incredible night of fulfilling their deepest fantasies leads to more than just a pathway to keeping a promise and saving a friend, will they be able to overcome the barriers that stand between them and forever?

BE CAREFUL NOT TO ADD SPOILERS

********************************************

Tegan studied her smart lavender eyes. "Is that really what you think--that he hates you?"

"Sterling was my mate's brother--by marriage, he is my brother. It would be completely improper--"

Tegan scoffed. "Men have gone to war with their own brothers for want of the same woman. Desire could give a damn about propriety."

Elise held the towel closed between her breasts and paced from him. "I don't like where this conversation is heading."

"Do you have feelings for him?"

"Of course not." She looked at Tegan, clearly, rightfully, appalled. "And what right have you to ask me that?"

None at all, but suddenly it was important to him that he know. He stood there, deliberately blocking her path if she even thought to duck away from him. "He desires you. He would take you into his bed if you'd let him. Hell, maybe he wouldn't even need your permission."

"Now you're just being rude."

"I'm only stating the truth. Don't tell me you weren't aware that Chase burns for you. Anyone with eyes in his head can see that."

"But only you would be coarse enough to speak it."

As you can see im really into this series at the moment lol. Now iv posted this early this week just in case i didn't get time Tuesday morning to post it. x
