Kelly reviews Caged Magic by Jennifer Lyon

TITLE: Caged Magic
SERIES #: Wing Slayer Hunters #5
CHARACTERS: Lincoln Dillinger & Risa Faden
AUTHOR: Jennifer Lyon
PUBLICATION DATE: July 20, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Risa Faden is a witch whose ultra-powerful shield magic is slowly breaking her mind. But when her beloved goddaughter is snatched by a demon, she’ll risk anything to rescue the baby—including lying to the handsome, intriguing stranger who has the power to help her keep her sanity, save the child…and steal her heart.

Linc Dillinger is a Wing Slayer Hunter whose sexy, rich, bad-boy charm hides a treacherous betrayal that left him emotionally scarred. As a result he risks his life to protect innocents, but is incapable of love—until he meets a beautiful witch who can save his cursed soul. Risa’s fierce courage and loyalty reaches past his barriers and he begins to believe she has the magic to free his caged heart.

But Risa’s lie explodes into dark danger that forces Linc into a hellish high-stakes gamble: He must either win the witch he loves and her godchild…or endure a loss that will destroy them all.

REVIEW:
OH how I have waited for this book!!!! I am so glad that Jennifer was able to find the time to write Linc’s book. It was great to get back into the world of the Wing Slayer Hunters.
In Caged Magic we learn a whole lot more about Linc and his past. I past that is beyond heartbreaking, yet it made him be a very strong person. We learn more about his Falcon and he is pretty darn amazing. We also get to see a side of Linc I was not sure we would ever see.
Risa had a great life until her mother died, then everything went to hell. Risa is one tough cookie. She has dealt with so much in her past that it is amazing she has survived. But when Kendall’s life is on the line she will do everything to save the child.
Loved Linc & Risa together. Loved their battle to trust and love. Really liked the depth that Jennifer took us to with Ram and Eli. And SUPER excited to know that their stories are coming soon.
To my fellow Wing Slayer Hunters: hang on this is a bumpy ride!!!!!
To my newbies: you really need to start with book one Blood Magic. There is a lot of history that builds up to this book. And hey there are only 4 books in front of this one. Easy to get catch up!!!

Until we meet again Wing Slayers Hunters!!! Oh and Key??? You better show up more in the next book. Miss you and your dragon.

REVIEW:
Sworn to Protect opens with Quinn doing the right thing. Helping someone who is in need. But that act of helping will soon turn into a life of death battle.

Sworn to Protect was a really quick read for me. Quinn and Athena’s story is full of suspense, action and of course smexy time. I really enjoyed watching Quinn right his wrongs. And boy howdy does he right the in an awesome way. Athena is strong willed and brave. She also is not willing to take crap from anyone even Quinn. These two make a great pair.

As always I really enjoyed this Red Stone Security story. Looking forward to the next story.

Kimberly reviews Commanded by Stacey Kennedy

TITLE: Commanded
SERIES #: Club Sin #6
CHARACTERS: Sawyer & Chloe
AUTHOR: Stacey Kennedy
PUBLICATION DATE: 07/07/15
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
A dedicated cop, Sawyer Quinn blows off steam by immersing himself in his role as a Master at the hottest club in Las Vegas. But when Sawyer goes after the perp who brutally beat his sister, he teams up with Chloe Nash, a sexy private investigator who awakens a sweet new need: to keep her to himself, away from the dungeon of Club Sin. Chloe is beautiful, smart, and too innocent for the BDSM lifestyle. Sawyer’s never wanted a woman like this before. Is her love worth swearing off the one thing that keeps him sane?

There’s something different about Sawyer: a commanding strength that pulls Chloe into a vortex of heady desire. But when she learns about his double life as a Dom, she’s shocked—and afraid she could never complete him. Then he saves her life, and just like that, Chloe knows she will be able to give him anything he desires. She is his—wherever and however he wants to take her.

REVIEW:
4.5 Hearts This might be my favorite of the Club Sin series so far. I can’t tell you everything I want to because it would most certainly have spoilers and I don’t want to spoil any part of this story. It is a short story with under 140 pages but so much happens.

I have liked Sawyer from first meeting him. Something about him had a bit of a difference than the others and now I understand why. And Chloe. What a great character she is. She is someone I would want to be friends with and I think that is one of the best compliments you can give an author.

**Possible spoilers but I am trying not to ** But what I really enjoyed was the ending. It is a bit different than the normal BDSM story so I found myself feeling more committed to the story because of that. Sawyer had me from page one but I fell all over again for him at the end of the book.

Another great story from Kennedy. If you enjoy the genre you will most certainly enjoy this series and while I suggest reading all of them you don’t need to to read this one. And this read is worth it.

Natasha reviews Wicked Embers by Keri Arthur

TITLE: Wicked Embers
SERIES #: Souls of Fire #2
CHARACTERS: Emberly, Jackson, Sam & Rory
AUTHOR: Keri Arthur
PUBLICATION DATE: July 7, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Keri Arthur, New York Times bestselling author of Fireborn, presents the thrilling new Souls of Fire Novel featuring Emberly Pearson, a phoenix that can transform into a human—and is haunted by the ability to foresee death….

Crimson Death, the plague like virus spawned from a failed government experiment to isolate the enzymes that make vampires immortal, continues to spread. Emberly and her partner, Jackson Miller, are desperately seeking the stolen research for a cure before the virus becomes a pandemic.

But their mission is jeopardized by another threat uncovered in Emberly’s prophetic dreams. A creature of ash and shadow has been unleashed on a murdering spree. Now Emberly must summon all her gifts and investigative knowledge to put an end to this entity’s brutal rampage—even if it means placing herself in harm’s way….

REVIEW:
3.5 Hearts Emberly is a strong female character lead – I enjoy her a lot. This book was another interesting installment in this new series and offered answers to lingering questions. I’m curious how the story line will continue from here, it’s going to be very exciting. There are lots of characters in this series, and sometimes they get mingled together, but they’re all intriguing and you want to see more of them. Emberly reminds me a lot of Keri’s heroine Riley Jensen – which is a big compliment, since I loved that series. I’ll keep following the series, I want to see what’s in store for these characters. It seems Emberly is destined for an eternity of heartbreak and my fingers are crossed she’ll find her happy lifetime! Keri Arthur writes very creative stories with characters you fall in love with, even if sometimes the complexity gets a little deep.

Kelly reviews Hell or High Water by Julie Ann Walker

TITLE: Hell or High Water
SERIES #: Deep Six #1
CHARACTERS: Leo “LT” Anderson & Olivia Mortier
AUTHOR: Julie Ann Walker
PUBLICATION DATE: July 7, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
In a world on the brink…

Six men. One sunken Spanish galleon. Millions in gold and silver coins lying on the ocean floor. And a past that refuses to let the guys of Deep Six Salvage forget the Navy SEAL motto: the only easy day was yesterday…

There’s more than one kind of treasure…

The nation’s security has always been CIA agent Olivia Mortier’s top priority. But a mission-gone-wrong has begun to make her wonder if there’s more to life than risking hers.

And more than one secret at the bottom of the sea…

Only two things could make Leo Anderson abandon his hunt for the legendary lost ship, La Santa Christina, and return to the world of weapons and warfare he swore to leave behind: a capsule of enriched uranium, lost on the ocean floor, and a plea for assistance from the one woman he can’t seem to forget.

REVIEW:
WOW!!! When Julie Ann wants to start a new series she does it in style. Hell or High Water is book one in the Deep Six series and we get to me Leo “The Lion” Anderson and his band of merry men. They are all ex-Navy SEALs. All trying to put a real life together after a promise to a fallen comrade. But of course things can’t so smoothly. Oh no…. smooth would be to easy.
I really enjoyed this book. I enjoyed learning about all the guys a little. Their backstory is heartbreaking and I will admit I shed a few tears. The adventure kept me turning the pages. The tension between Leo & Olivia was a perfect balance to tug and pull. It was also great to get a little cameo from one of Ms. Walker’s Black Knight Inc. characters 🙂
I can’t wait to see what is next for this six guys. The future is looking pretty bright even if they have to go deep to find it.

Kelly reviews Seal Wolf Hunting by Terry Spears

TITLE: SEAL Wolf Hunting
SERIES #: Heart of the Wolf #16
CHARACTERS: Paul Cunningham & Lori Greypaw
AUTHOR: Terry Spears
PUBLICATION DATE: July 7, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Paul Cunningham is one of the only bachelors left on the SEAL wolf team, and he’s less than thrilled to hear he’s been volunteered for a local charity bachelor auction.

Lori Greypaw suspected that her grandmother would use the auction as an opportunity to fix her up. So she’s not surprised when she “buys” Paul to help Lori renovate her mountain cabin for a week. Lori’s had a crush on the sexy SEAL wolf for years, but he proves to be handy with more than a hammer when two fugitives come knocking and he’ll do anything to protect the woman he’s falling for.

REVIEW:
I enjoyed SEAL Wolf Hunting. But at time the book was a little slow to me. There was not a ton of action in this book. It seemed like this was more of a coming home second chance at life book. Paul Cunningham loves being a SEAL, but he loves his family more. He has always known at some point in time he was going to have to step in to the role as Alpha, but he has not been ready. I liked Lori a lot in this book. She can kick some serious butt when needed and knows when she is in over her head. I liked Paul & Lori together. They make a great team and a great Alpha couple.
I am hoping that the next book in the series is Allen’s and we get to stay with the Cummingham pack a little longer so we can see how everyone is doing.
Until next time SEAL Wolfs… Until next time.

Kelly reviews Second Chance Summer by Jill Shalvis

TITLE: Second Chance Summer
SERIES #: Cider Ridge #1
CHARACTERS: Aidan Kincaid & Lily Danville
AUTHOR: Jill Shalvis
PUBLICATION DATE: June 30, 2015
ORDER LINKS:Amazon| B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
RESCUE ME

Cedar Ridge, Colorado, is famous for crisp mountain air, clear blue skies, and pine-scented breezes. And it’s the last place Lily Danville wants to be. But she needs a job, and there’s an opening at the hottest resort in her hometown. What has her concerned is the other hot property in Cedar Ridge: Aidan Kincaid-firefighter, rescue worker, and heartbreaker. She never could resist that devastating smile . . .

The Kincaid brothers are as rough and rugged as the Rocky Mountains they call home. Aidan has always done things his own way, by his own rules. And never has he regretted anything more than letting Lily walk out of his life ten years ago. If anyone has ever been in need of rescuing, she has. What she needs more than anything are long hikes, slow dances, and sizzling kisses. But that can only happen if he can get her to give Cedar Ridge-and this bad boy-a second chance .

REVIEW:
Cider Ridge is the setting for Ms. Shalvis’ new series.We get introduced to the Kincaid family and their struggles to keep the family business afloat. In Second Chance Summer we focus on Aidan the second oldest of the Kincaid kids. There is nothing more important than family to Aidan. Except maybe the girl that broke his heart who just happens to be back in town. As we read we learn why family is so important and why some people are not. We also learn a lot about what Aidan is willing to do for love.
Lily is only back in town because she has not choice. If she had it her way she would have never stepped foot in this town again. But while there may be too many bad memories, Lily is about to find out that facing the past is the key to healing and having a bright future.
Loved it!! I love that we have a new series from Ms. Shalvis. I always love reading her books and getting engrossed into the world she has created. Loved Aidan. Everyone needs someone like Aidan in their life. Someone they know will drop everything for them and run to their rescue, even when they don’t think they need to be rescued.
Lily, she is was smart tough cookie that finally learns that it is okay to be rescued. I really liked the struggle that Lily went through in this book. I think that by the end she is a force to be reckoned with and the Kincaid kids need to watch out.
If you have read any of the Jill’s books in the past you will love this book too. She has all the drama, humor, witty characters, the is it time to grab a tissue and very yummy smexy time that you will find in all Jill’s books. If you have not read Jill yet, please refer to the previous sentence about “the drama, humor, witty characters, the is it time to grab a tissue and very yummy smexy time”. So in short: add this book to your read list!!!

Kimberly reviews Somebody I Used To Know by David Bell

TITLE: Somebody I Used To Know
CHARACTERS: Nick Hansen
AUTHOR: David Bell
PUBLICATION DATE: 07/07/15
ORDER LINKS: Amazon| B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
The breakout author of The Forgotten Girl and Cemetery Girl, “one of the brightest and best crime fiction writers of our time” (Suspense Magazine) delivers a new novel about a man who is haunted by a face from his past….

When Nick Hansen sees the young woman at the grocery store, his heart stops. She is the spitting image of his college girlfriend, Marissa Minor, who died in a campus house fire twenty years earlier. But when Nick tries to speak to her, she acts skittish and rushes off.

The next morning the police arrive at Nick’s house and show him a photo of the woman from the store. She’s been found dead, murdered in a local motel, with Nick’s name and address on a piece of paper in her pocket.

Convinced there’s a connection between the two women, Nick enlists the help of his college friend Laurel Davidson to investigate the events leading up to the night of Marissa’s death. But the young woman’s murder is only the beginning…and the truths Nick uncovers may make him wish he never doubted the lies.

REVIEW:
I have not read this author before but I will be reading him again. This story had a number of different twists which meant it was a quick read for me since I could not put it down.

So in general Nick is thrown back into his past to the life, love and death of Marissa when a woman who is the spitting image of her is seen on the street by him and as hard as that is to deal with alone the next day the cops show up because the woman has been found dead. So Nick is thrust into the death of this mystery woman as well as reliving the death of Marissa.

I really enjoyed Nick. The writing was concise and enjoyable. With all the twists I was unable to figure out pretty much anything. Every time I thought I had the mystery figured out I was proven wrong and that to me is the ideal when reading a book like this.

If you are a fan of the genre than I think you will enjoy this. You will not be disappointed.

Kelly reviews Commanded by Stacey Kennedy

TITLE: Commanded
SERIES #: Club Sin #6
CHARACTERS: Sawyer Quinn & Chloe Nash
AUTHOR: Stacey Kennedy
PUBLICATION DATE: July 7, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

REVIEW:

Commanded opens with a major shock to the Quinn family. Sawyer’s little sister is attacked. But they can’t track down the accused. Sawyer turns to his pal Porter and Porter’s best private investigator. Who also happens to hold the star role in many of Sawyer’s recent fantasies, to bad Ms. Chloe Nash has a boyfriend…..
Another great story from Stacey. Sawyer and Chloe make a great copy. Chloe is the yin to Sawyers yang. I felt like Commanded took the whole Club Sin series to a new level. Yes, there was BDSM. Yes, there was a lot of sexy time. But we got to see a side to Sawyer that if his heroine had been anyone else we would have never seen. If you are a fan of this series you will enjoy this read. It is a quick read (one sitting for me). But a very enjoyable quick read.

Kelly reviews Flight from Death by Yasmine Galenorn

TITLE: Flight from Death
SERIES #: Fly by Night #1
CHARACTERS: Alex & Shimmer
AUTHOR: Yasmine Galenorn
PUBLICATION DATE: July 7, 2015
ORDER LINKS: Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
From New York Times bestselling author Yasmine Galenorn comes an all-new series set in the realm of her Otherworld novels.

I’m Shimmer, a blue dragon shifter. Thanks to a mistake, I was exiled from the Dragon Reaches and sentenced to work for Alex Radcliffe, a vampire who owns the Fly by Night Magical Investigations Agency. Now, not only do I have to adapt to Earthside culture, but every time I turn around, somebody’s trying to kill us. And worse, Alex is as gorgeous as he is exasperating. But you know what they say: All’s fair in love and bounty hunting…

When an old friend of Alex contacts him about a haunting at the High Tide Bed & Breakfast in Port Townsend, Washington, we think we’re on a simple ghost hunt. But our investigation quickly transforms into a deadly fight as we uncover an eighty-year-old murder, a cursed house, and a dark force trapping the spirits within. To stop impending disaster we must break the curse and lay the angry spirits to rest.

REVIEW:
Flight from Death is the first book in Ms. Galenorn’s new Fly by Night series. As I started this book I knew that this was a spin off from her Otherworld series (sadly I have not got catch up on this series). I wondered if I would be lost in this new world. I was not. Ms. Galenorn does a great job of bring us up to speed quickly on the world she has created. I think were it would have been beneficial (for me) was to see Alex and Shimmer before this book. They have some kind of history. I think that history, while retold a little in Flight from Death, would have helped understand Alex and Shimmer’s attraction to each other just a little better. I felt like in Flight from Death that it went from “oh he is cute, but has a girlfriend” to “oh the broke up, must jump at this chance”. Now don’t get me wrong I loved Alex and Shimmer I just wish that there was just a tad bit more build up (hence knowing their history in the other books). But that being said, Flight from Death was a good book. I enjoyed the story line and the what’s and why’s. I love that Shimmer is a dragon. Not enough female dragon shifters everywhere.
If you are a Yasmine Galenorn fan you will love this book. If you are new to Ms. Galenorn I hope that you will give Flight from Death a try.

Favorite line:
“….. Say, I’m hungry. Patrick have anything good in the house? I could eat a horse.”
Alex glanced at me, grinning “Have you ever? Eaten a horse?”
I blushed. Truth was, I had………..

Awe, gotta love dragons.

Kimberly reviews A New Hope by Robyn Carr

TITLE: A New Hope
SERIES #: Thunder Point #8
CHARACTERS: Ginger & Matt
AUTHOR: Robyn Carr
PUBLICATION DATE: 01/01/15
ORDER LINKS: Amazon| B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Starting over is never easy, but in Thunder Point, where newcomers are welcome and friends become family, it’s possible to find yourself again. In this brand-new story, #1 New York Times bestselling author Robyn Carr takes us on a moving and rewarding journey as a young woman finds new hope.

After losing her child, Ginger Dysart was lost in grief. But since moving to Thunder Point, a small town on the Oregon coast, and with the help of her cousin Ray Anne, Ginger is finally moving forward. Her job at the flower shop is peaceful and fulfilling, and she’s excited to start her first big assignment, assisting with the Lacoumette wedding.

In spite of her lasting heartache, Ginger finds herself swept up in the pleasure of the occasion. But the beauty of the Lacoumette farm and the joy of the gregarious family are ruined by an unfortunate encounter with the bride’s brother, Matt. Struggling with painful memories of his own recent divorce, Matt makes a drunken spectacle of himself and Ginger when he tries to make a pass at her, forcing Ginger to flee the scene in embarrassment.

But when Matt shows up at the flower shop determined to make amends, what started out as a humiliating first meeting blossoms into something much deeper than either of them expected. Discovering they have a lot in common, they form a solid friendship, though everyone around them worries that Ginger will end up with a broken heart yet again. But if Ginger has the courage to embrace the future, and if Matt can finally learn to let go of the past, there may still be hope for a happy ending.

REVIEW:
4.25 Hearts This is the latest visit to Thunder Point and i have enjoyed every one of these visits. Thunder Point is a small town romance with all the sweetness that a small town can handle. Ginger and Matt both have a bunch of baggage and aren’t sure they will ever get over it but then Matt makes a drunken pass at Ginger that goes terribly wrong and yet it changes their life forever.

I enjoyed Ginger a lot. While she has been through a lot she still has a good head on her shoulders. She has a way of being down to earth and knowing what needs to be done to bring peace to her past and later to Matt’s. Matt is a good guy. His ex-wife did something that he is not sure can ever be forgiven but somehow Ginger makes him understand that hate isn’t about the other person but about what it does to yourself.

There are a lot of life lessons in this story surrounded by romance. I enjoyed the check ins with locals that we have met in the past. Any fan of small town romance will love this book and even more the series. This book can be a stand alone but not sure why you wouldn’t want to start from book one and visit Thunder Point over and over again.

Kelly reviews Soul Scorched by Donna Grant

TITLE: Soul Scorched
SERIES #: Dark Kings #6
CHARACTERS: Warrick & Darcy
AUTHOR: Donna Grant
PUBLICATION DATE: June 30, 2015
ORDER LINKS:Amazon | B&N

BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Darcy was floating on a cloud of pure passion. Everywhere he touched, Warrick was leaving a mark on her, forever changing her. She could feel it through her skin and muscle, through bone and into her soul. It was as if he was changing her. And she welcomed it…

Her power is a blessing.

Born on the Isle of Skye, Darcy is a beautiful woman of many gifts. Fortune-telling is her forte, and she remains the only Druid who could unlock the secrets—and desires—of a Dragon King. His name is Warrick. And now that Darcy’s seen into his dragon heart, nothing will ever be the same…

His passion is a curse.

Warrick never intended to put Darcy in harm’s way. But ever since she revealed a shocking truth, Darcy has been hunted by the Dark Fae, who want to use her powers for their own evil purposes. Now it’s up to Warrick to do whatever it takes to keep the woman who sets his soul on fire safe. But protecting Darcy means putting himself—and his entire race—in jeopardy. Is his desperate longing for one woman worth the risk of losing everything… for eternity?

Dive into Soul Scorched, the sizzling next novel in the Dark Kings series from New York Times bestselling author Donna Grant

REVIEW:
Amazing!!!! Soul Scorched takes us back into the world of the Dragon Kings. And of course thing can just go right for them right now. At every turn they are battling the Dark Fae, Urlik and each other. The events in Night Blaze (if you haven’t read I will try to keep spoiler free) had you thinking that things were getting ready to turn maybe for the better. But in Soul Scorched everything takes a huge nose dive. Friends can’t be trusted, enemy can and not everyone is what they seem.
I will say I had a little bit of anxiety (okay a lot) while reading this book. There is so much going on. The Kings are all over the place. We get a cameo from the Warriors (which only makes things more tense) and of course… We get a few bread crumbs surrounding Rhi and her Dragon King. So many things are turned upside down in this book. UUUGGGGG!!! I wish that I could just poof into Ms. Grant’s brain and see the whole story, but sadly I don’t have that power. But until then keep reading…..
