Kelly reviews Teased by Rebecca Zanetti

TITLE: Teased- A 1001 Dark Nights Novella
SERIES #: Dark Protectors #7.5
CHARACTERS: Chalton Reese & Olivia Roberts
AUTHOR: Rebecca Zanetti
PUBLICATION DATE: December 8, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The Hunter
For almost a century, the Realm’s most deadly assassin, Chalton Reese, has left war and death in the past, turning instead to strategy, reason, and technology. His fingers, still stained with blood, now protect with a keyboard instead of a weapon. Until the vampire king sends him on one more mission; to hunt down a human female with the knowledge to destroy the Realm. A woman with eyes like emeralds, a brain to match his own, and a passion that might destroy them both—if the enemy on their heels doesn’t do so first.

The Hunted
Olivia Roberts has foregone relationships with wimpy metro-sexuals in favor of pursuing a good story, bound and determined to uncover the truth, any truth. When her instincts start humming about missing proprietary information, she has no idea her search for a story will lead her to a ripped, sexy, and dangerous male beyond any human man. Setting aside the unbelievable fact that he’s a vampire and she’s his prey, she discovers that trusting him is the only chance they have to survive the danger stalking them both.

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts EEKKKK!!!! Another Dark Protectors story? Yes, please and thank you very much!!!!
I just love this series and was super excited to see that Ms. Zanetti wrote another story for us. It was great to finally get to see Chalton in action. Poor guy has had to wait a very long time to get his story. But boy was it worth it. Chalton found his match in the feisty journalist that is about to expose the Realms dark secrets.
I don’t want to tell you to much, but there is a lot of sass, shooting, punching, a few incidence of being thrown over a shoulder or two and some very yummy smexy time.
If you are new to the Dark Protector series never fear!!!! Teased can easily be read as a standalone novella. Fan’s get this book!!!!
I for one am super excited for Jared’s book!!!

Favorite line:
“You shot at me” he said mildly, pressing into the booth.
“I didn’t hit you,” Jared returned, pushing a shot of vodka from the home world his way. “I almost hit you in the leg just for fun, but I thought it might freak out the woman to much.”

Kelly reviews To Catch His Mate by Savannah Stewart

TITLE: To Catch His Mate
SERIES #: Crescent Moon #5
CHARACTERS: Reece O’Shea & Alyssa Clare
AUTHOR: Savannah Stewart
PUBLICATION DATE: December 15, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
When she ran, she didn’t think he’d follow…

Pack princess Alyssa Clare was trying to come up with ways to get out of her arranged mating to alpha wolf Reece O’Shea—until she meets the powerful male. After getting to know him, mating doesn’t seem like such a bad idea anymore. But when he makes it clear she’s just a business arrangement for him and his pack, she calls off the mating and heads south to stay with a friend to lick her wounds in private.

But he’s not willing to let her go without a fight.

Reece can’t let Alyssa go, not when he’s completely fallen for the sweet, sexy female. He doesn’t care about the arranged mating deal, he just wants her and has no idea why she ran. To win her back he infiltrates another alpha’s territory, knowing it could mean his death. Luckily Grant Kincaid allows him in his domain—as long as Alyssa is okay with it. Convincing her that she’s all he wants is a bigger challenge than he imagined. But he’s not giving up, because he knows she’s the one he’s meant to be with forever.

Length: NOVELLA

REVIEW:
To Catch His Mate was a quick and enjoyable read. I very much liked Reece and Alyssa’s story. Reece messes up royally in the beginning. But like any good Alpha male he knows when to turn on the charm and add a little groveling to win what is his.
As stated this is a novella so I don’t want to give away too much of the story. But know that Alyssa makes life a little rough for poor Reece. Oh and there is a secondary romance in this book that I just loved as much as Alyssa and Reece. I really can’t wait to see what is up next in the Crescent Moon series.

Natasha reviews Sweet Ruin by Kresley Cole

TITLE: Sweet Ruin
SERIES #: Immortals After Dark #16
CHARACTERS: Josephine & Rune
AUTHOR: Kresley Cole
PUBLICATION DATE: December 1, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
An immortal assassin is caught between desire and duty in this sizzling new novel from Kresley Cole’s #1 New York Times bestselling Immortals After Dark series.

A foundling raised in a world of humans
Growing up, orphaned Josephine didn’t know who or what she was—just that she was “bad,” an outcast with strange powers. Protecting her baby brother Thaddeus became her entire life. The day he was taken away began Jo’s transition from angry girl…to would-be superhero…to enchanting villain.

A lethally sensual enforcer on a mission
Whether by bow or in bed, archer Rune the Baneblood never fails to eliminate his target. In his sights: the oldest living Valkyrie. Yet before he can strike, he encounters a vampiric creature whose beauty mesmerizes him. With one bite, she pierces him with aching pleasure, stealing his forbidden blood—and jeopardizing the secrets of his brethren.

A boundless passion that will lead to sweet ruin…
Could this exquisite female be a spy sent by the very Valkyrie he hunts? Rune knows he must not trust Josephine, yet he’s unable to turn her away. When Jo betrays the identity of the one man she will die to protect, she and Rune become locked in a treacherous battle of wills that pits ultimate loyalty against unbridled lust.

REVIEW:
3.5 Hearts This is one of my favorite series, and I was so excited for this book. While I still love the series, and I loved where the book ultimately ended up, I was disappointed with most of it. Rune and Jo are a great match for each other, but I never really connected with either character. Jo seemed so bratty from the very beginning and I found her annoying. Kinda the same with Rune. The story was meandering along for most of the book, with a few exciting points. I will say that towards the end of the book, it really picked up speed and I finally couldn’t put it down. It’s worth reading for that alone. We also finally got more page time from our favorite characters – NIX!! There’s a healthy dose of Nix in this book, which is great for any freaking IAD book! She has to be the most genius character ever created. Though this entire book wasn’t my cup of tea, many important things happened that will affect the entire series, and I am still a huge fan IAD and will gobble up every book released. I do not want the series to end – ever!

Kimberly reviews Spellbound by Michelle M Pillow

TITLE: Spellbound
SERIES #: Warlocks MacGregor
CHARACTERS: Jane & Iain
AUTHOR: Michelle M Pillow
PUBLICATION DATE: 07/07/15
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Let Sleeping Warlocks Lie…

Iain MacGregor knows how his warlock family feels about outsiders discovering the truth of their powers, its forbidden. That doesn’t seem to stop him from having accidental magickal discharges whenever he’s around the woman who has captured his attention. Apparently his magick and other “parts” don’t seem to care what the rules are, or that the object of his affection just might be his undoing.

Warning: Contains yummy, hot, mischievous MacGregor boys who may or may not be wearing clothing and who are almost certainly up to no good on their quest to find true love.

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts I really enjoyed this story. I read it in one sitting. I could not put it down. The MacGregor clan is funny and enjoyable and just people you want to know. Iain and Jane have an instant connection but they have no idea why. For that matter neither do we until we read a flashback from book one…. so you should read the first before you read this one. You don’t have to but I would suggest you do.

Jane has some special talents. She sees ghost and she believes she is close to dieing so to her it is just an omen of what is to come. But there is more to every story. Iain has an attraction to her the moment they lock eyes but has no idea how they can be so close when they just met but the family has some concerns about who, or what, Jane is.

I truly enjoyed this story. There were not as many laugh out loud moments like I had with the first story but it was still enjoyable. The background characters are worth the read alone. The boys are funny and pranksters who believe family is for fun as well as love.

You can not go wrong with this book or series for that matter. The humor is wonderfully written. The romance is wonderfully written. The characters are wonderfully written. In general this book (and series) is just wonderful.

Kelly reviews Blood Kiss by J.R. Ward

TITLE: Blood Kiss
SERIES #: Black Dagger Legacy#1
CHARACTERS: Craeg & Paradise
AUTHOR: J.R, Ward
PUBLICATION DATE: December 1, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The legacy of the Black Dagger Brotherhood continues in a spin-off series from the #1 New York Times bestselling author…
Paradise, blooded daughter of the king’s First Advisor, is ready to break free from the restrictive life of an aristocratic female. Her strategy? Join the Black Dagger Brotherhood’s training center program and learn to fight for herself, think for herself…be herself. It’s a good plan, until everything goes wrong. The schooling is unfathomably difficult, the other recruits feel more like enemies than allies, and it’s very clear that the Brother in charge, Butch O’Neal, a.k.a. the Dhestroyer, is having serious problems in his own life.
And that’s before she falls in love with a fellow classmate. Craeg, a common civilian, is nothing her father would ever want for her, but everything she could ask for in a male. As an act of violence threatens to tear apart the entire program, and the erotic pull between them grows irresistible, Paradise is tested in ways she never anticipated—and left wondering whether she’s strong enough to claim her own power…on the field, and off.

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts Great start to Ms. Ward’s spin off series. Blood Kiss reminded me of why I fell in love with the Black Dagger Brothers in the first place. We got back to basics in Blood Kiss, back into the training center and back with the story focused on the Brotherhood. I was really happy that there was not much focus on the Lessers. While this new series is highly focused on the new recruits we get to see the Brothers again up close and personal.
1st up Butch and Marissa. I have always loved Butch from day one (okay he was a bit of an Asshat in the beginning with the whole Beth thing…. but he is awesome). It was great to have a closer look at Butch and Marissa’s relationship. One that always seemed so perfect on the outside, but we learn that there are problems. It was great to see them both step out of their comfort zone to make sure the other knew where they stood. Oh and Marissa, DANG girl you rock all kinds of awesome. Just wait and see 🙂
As for our new kids. I like them a lot, okay there are a few that get on my nerves and a few that I thought that underneath all of the tough I am an island stuff are going to be great characters and I can not wait to see where they all go and what the future holds for this series.

Favorite lines:
“…Since one of you is already on the horizontal, no one has to worry about fighting Hollywood over here.”
“Personally, I’m about to cry over that,” Rhage said……

“And to show there’s no hard feelings for you being a douche just now, I’ll set you up with a good TV, internet and a twelve month calendar of Rhage so you have something pretty to look at.”

“You ever do females?”–This whole conversation had me rolling on the ground.

Kelly reviews Alien In Chief by Gini Koch

TITLE: Alien In Chief
SERIES #: Katherine “Kitty” Katt #12
CHARACTERS: Kitty and the crew
AUTHOR: Gini Koch
PUBLICATION DATE: December 1, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The Mastermind has upped his game . . .

As Kitty can tell you, it’s not easy being the wife of the vice president – especially not when he’s an alien from the Alpha Centauri system. And being a parent of preternaturally talented children, don’t even go there. But she and her A-C husband, Jeff, have learned how to roll with whatever life and the bad guys throw at them – they think.

Kitty & Company have been savouring a few months of quiet since they got back from Beta Eight. But suddenly their peace is shattered by the arrival of a mysterious female assassin – who might be Jeff’s missing niece, Stephanie. And that’s just the beginning of the fun.

When the Alpha Centauri Planetary Council requests a visit with the president and vice president, things look politically dicey. When the most dangerous prisoners in the most secure supermax prison escape with ease, things look bad. But when the Mastermind releases a virus that kills people in a week, things go to Defcon Worse fast.

Now it’s up to Kitty to save everyone important in the U.S. government – including her mother, her husband, and herself – before the virsu spreads through the rest of the country, and then the world. Plus she’s facing invisible attackers, crazed assassins, a teenager in hiding, the most dangerous train ride ever, the disappearance of her beloved flyboys, and a mysterious alien who could be an enemy or the ally she needs.

and this time, the Mastermind’s made it very personal. Either he’s going down . . . or Kitty is.

REVIEW:
Long live Wolverine with Boobs!!! Kitty is back and she is not bothering to take names this time.
I really enjoyed the opening scene with Jamie complaining about Charlie. Cracked me up!! I would have loved to see more of the kid-o’s, but being at war is not the best place for them to be. And super excited that Becky is here!!!!
Each time I pick up one of Ms. Koch’s books I realized what a complicated and involved series this is (meaning you need to start with book one and read in order). I am very thankful that she recaps the characters. At times I feel like I need a cheat sheet to keep track of everyone. 🙂
This was a fun book because as always Kitty does some serious butt kicking and who knew she could drive a motorcycle so well. But sad at the same time because there were too many deaths. And damn it Mastermind got away AGAIN!!! Can’t he just be gone already??
I can’t wait to see what happens next because I am not sure that Earth is ready for the new President and First Lady. Oh and don’t forget the first children!!! Pack your bags Jeff & Kitty your shiny new house is White.

Natasha reviews Releasing Her Dragon by Elianne Adams

TITLE: Releasing Her Dragon
CHARACTERS: Stella & Brycen
AUTHOR: Elianne Adams
PUBLICATION DATE: October 27, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N | Buy in the Flight of Dragons book bundle Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Trapped in her own body, she-dragon, Stella Montrose has no choice but to find her mate. Whether he likes it or not, he either has to claim her, or set her free, otherwise she’ll lose the ability to shift. Sounds simple, only, every time she gets near him, he disappears.

When Brycen Conners signs on to protect an annoying human woman, he never imagined he’d cross paths with his mate. Once the job is done, he’ll do whatever it takes to win her heart. Until then, he has to stay away.

REVIEW:
This novella caught my attention from the very first paragraph. Stella is immediately an intriguing character who I instantly fell in love with. She is a very strong woman and that comes off very clearly in the first pages of the story. Brycen was not my favorite person in the beginning, but he definitely redeems himself and I fall just as fast for him. This story has just the right amount of drama and action for a novella. I don’t think Elianne Adams is capable of writing a bad story. If you’re interested in a quick read where you don’t have to read an entire series, this book will be perfect for you!

Kimberly reviews Now You See Her by Dale Mayer

TITLE: Now You See Her
SERIES #: Psychic Visions #8
CHARACTERS: Tia & Dean
AUTHOR: Dale Mayer
PUBLICATION DATE: 11/08/15
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Energy. The life force of good … and evil
And sometimes evil is stronger.
Tia spent years imprisoned in a ‘special’ program. When she finally escaped, she ran as far away as she could. But it wouldn’t leave her alone.
Only one person can help her. Stefan. But when she contacts him for help, she gets more than she bargained for. Six weeks later, she awakens from a coma to find more problems than ever – and she’s still being hunted.
Dean, moonlighting as a guard at the hospital, finds himself in an impossible situation. His belief system is stretched out of control by someone whom he can’t forget … and can’t believe. Until he has no choice.
With everything on the line, Tia and Dean must work together to solve the problem that has somehow – in a very unique way – entwined them both.

REVIEW:
This is the 8th in a series that I have not read yet but I will most certainly be working my way back through the series. What an amazing story this was. I thought I knew about psychics but this story makes you want to go find someone who claims to have the ability and interview them for days.

I liked Tia. She brought me through every emotion. I was saddened by her past, hopeful for her future and amazed by her gifts. Dean is an interesting character as well. He has a hard time understanding the gift Tia has but tries to believe because of his past.

The suspenseful side of this story was really good as well. I highly recommend this book and the series. It was so much more than I expected.

Kelly & Kimberly review In The Company Of Wolves by Paige Tyler

TITLE: In the Company of Wolves
SERIES #: SWAT: SPECIAL WOLF ALPHA TEAM #3
CHARACTERS: Eric Becker & Jayna Winston
AUTHOR: Paige Tyler
PUBLICATION DATE: December 1, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
He opened his mouth to order her to drop the MP5 she had aimed at him, but nothing would come out. It was like she’d robbed him of the ability to speak. Shooting her wasn’t an option, though. And the idea of arresting her didn’t make him feel any better.

There’s a new gang of criminals in town who are organized and ruthless in the extreme. When Eric Becker, along with the rest of the Dallas SWAT team, ends up in the middle of a shootout, he immediately senses werewolves-a lot of them. Turns out, the new bad guys are a pack of wolf shifters.

In a spray of gunfire, Becker comes face-to-face with the most gorgeous woman he’s ever seen. Becker does the logical thing. He hides her and leaves the scene with the rest of his team.

Jayna Winston has no idea why that SWAT guy helped her, but she’s glad he did. Ever since she and her pack mates got mixed up with those Eastern European mobsters, everything had pretty much fallen apart.

So what’s a street-savvy thief like Jayna going to do with a hot alpha-male wolf who’s a police officer?

KELLY’S REVIEW:
4 Hearts In the Company of Wolves starts out with us getting a glance at the life the Jayne was subject to as a teenager. After surviving that attack by her step-father Jayne has had to learn to survive. Not only in the world but the world as a werewolf. Thankfully she has a small pack to rely on. Unfortunately, here Alpha had started making choices that could put them all in danger.
Eric Becker is trying to stop a crime before it happens. That last thing he ever expected to find in the warehouse raid was a she-wolf. But the minute he sees her, his life changed. Eric is a man on mission. A mission to find out who she is and why she was at the warehouse with a gun pointed at him.
I really enjoyed this story. In the Company of Wolves was a pretty quick read too. Eric Becker and Jayna Winston are a great couple. I just loved Eric. Eric is they type of guy that everyone would ever want in your corner. He is loyal and determined. I really enjoyed the interplay between Landry Cooper and Eric too. I think Eric needs to watch his back I have a funny feeling that Cooper will get a little revenge in the future for that gun shot.

Favorite line:
“Almost forgot. Can you stop by and feed my fish every few days? And talk to them too. They get lonely when I am not home.”
Cooper made a face “Who the hell talks to their fish?”
“Me. You’ll feed them, right”
“Yeah, I’ll feed them. But I am sure as hell not talking to them,” Cooper said…..

KIMBERLY’S REVIEW:
4 Hearts This is the 3rd in the SWAT series which is Jayna and Eric’s story. Jayna has lived a pretty traumatic life but has been able to depend on her pack until recently. There is some bad things going on and Jayna doesn’t know what to do about it. Eric finds her at a crime scene and can’t help but save her.

I enjoyed this story. Eric is great. He is everything a good werewolf should be. And a great guy too. Jayna is a female alpha and it was very interesting to see the pact dynamics.

If you enjoy a paranormal romance with a bit of suspense then you need to read this book… heck the series. You won’t regret it.

Kimberly reviews Wicked Edge by Rebecca Zanetti

TITLE: Wicked Edge
SERIES #: Realm Enforcers #2
CHARACTERS: Cee Cee & Daire
AUTHOR: Rebecca Zanetti
PUBLICATION DATE: 11/10/15
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
If you love the Dark Protectors, these wicked hot Realm Enforcers are for you!

Daire Dunne is more than ready to take a quick break from his duties as a Coven Nine Enforcer. When he spots a sexy blonde across a Titan’s of Fire party, it’s not long before she’s on the back of his Harley on the fast track to his apartment. Unfortunately, one overheated kiss in, the woman drugs Daire and steals valuable files that can’t fall into enemy hands. The second he comes to, the hunt is on…

Now that Cee Cee has the information to take down an enemy that destroyed her family, she can implement her perfect plan for revenge. Nothing will stop her, not even a shockingly sexy enforcer barging into her life. Not even the spectacular, fire-branding sex engulfing them. But if Daire ever figures out who her family really is, all bets are off…

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts I loved this book. First off Daire is perfect. Wait, I mean PERFECT! He is total alpha with a soft side. When he walks into that bar and meets Cee Cee you just want to be her. And the foreplay is hot, he takes her to his place and it gets hotter and then Cee Cee knocks him out with what she’s got… And too bad that wasn’t sex.

Cee Cee is great. I have said in my reviews before there are three type of women in romances. The one you want to be, the one you want to be friends with and the one you just never end up liking. I want to be Cee Cee when I grow up. She can kick butt with the best of the men, she can love with all her heart and dang if she isn’t a great mom too. She is my new hero!

There is sooooo much to this story. And so much I can tell you about but it would give way too much away. And with as great as this story is you don’t want any spoilers.. trust me.

Start with book one (Wicked Ride) in the series so you understand what is going on and the role that Daire plays in the Realm and where Cee Cee fits in but read it so you can read this one. And then wait with baited breath to read Wicked Burn.

Her contribution of Once Upon a Fiery Christmas to this collection was no exception. I really enjoyed the two main characters as well as the interactions with all the previous characters we’ve come to know and love. Yes there was the usual stubbornness and stupidity by each character, but I loved their story. Can’t wait for the next installment!

Kelly reviews From Russia With Fangs by Jacey Conrad, Gia Corona + a giveaway

TITLE: From Russia with Fangs
SERIES #: From Russia… #2
CHARACTERS: Irina Sudenko & Victor Zhukovsky
AUTHOR: Jacey Conrad, Gia Corona
PUBLICATION DATE: November 24, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Between her family’s drunken antics and vicious verbal attacks from her so-called friends, Irina Sudenko Volkov is having the worst night ever. And that’s before she’s widowed.
Volatile, cheating, no-good Sergei’s death-by-assassin unleashes chaos in the werewolf criminal underground. Irina’s panicked Papa assigns Beta wolf Viktor Zhukovsky to Irina’s security detail until her husband’s killer is found. As Irina’s world crumbles around her, the perfect princess mask falls away and Viktor meets the sharp, passionate woman underneath. Their initial chemistry gives way to a deeper attraction when Irina begins to see the decency underneath Viktor’s gruff, tattooed exterior, despite his insistence that it doesn’t exist.

Their tendency to find themselves semi-nude and in enclosed spaces is a source of amusement to her sister, Galina, but each of them knows of the deadly consequences if their relationship is brought to light. Things get even more complicated when Papa Sudenko begins to match-make Irina and Andrey Lupesco, who also happens to be in a secret relationship with Galina. Family dinners are awkward. With danger closing in on all sides, Irina has to find her claws and learn to howl.

In the much-anticipated sequel to From Russia with Claws, readers get a new perspective of the lusty exploits of the untameable Sudenko family. Gia Corona and Jacey Conrad craft a delightful tale of the anything-but-average human Irina and the libidinous lycanthropes in her life.

REVIEW:
Did you read From Russia with Claws? If not, go read it :). But don’t worry too much because reading From Russia with Fangs will not mess you up, but you still should go read From Russia with Claws.
You see, From Russia with Claws is Galina’s story where as From Russia with Fangs is Irina’s (Galina’s older sister) story. The fun thing about these two stories is that both take place at the exact same time. But in From Russia with Fangs we get to see all the events from Irina’s point of view. So this story has of the same events that take place and a few of the same conversations as From Russia with Claws. But I got answers to questions I had at the end of From Russia with Claws.
While some people may think it is strange or not a good idea to write a book like this, I loved it. I loved seeing everything from Irina’s view. I loved getting to see Irina and Victor’s relationship grow. I am really liking this series. I can’t wait to see what happens next. Oh and I am hoping for a story about Nik and Kon *wink wink*
