    I guess I would pick Sylvia Day. I love the Renegade Angels series before they changed a Touch of Crimson's cover which I have the print that I won't give up cause the cover is one of my favorites of all time!

  • Phaedra Seabolt

    So has anyone read Hidden Crimes by Emma Holly?

  • Mandie

    I keep hearing about Sylvia Day but haven't read anything by her yet and I haven't read Hidden Crimes either. I will have to look it up.

    Kiss of Blood (Vamp City #2) by Pamela Palmer - Review!

    Quin Lennox found herself lucky last time, managing to escape the alternate world of Vamp City.  But that world isn’t quite done with her.  They need her powers to restore the magic of their world and free the vampires currently bound there. Vampire Arturo Mazza is sent to bring her back, and Quinn has learned her lesson than to trust him again after his betrayal.  However this time Vamp City has some leverage, her brother.  She has to return to save him, and Arturo’s all she’s got.  Has he learned the error of his ways? Or is she setting herself up for disappointment once again.

    The first book was one of my favorite reads last year, so the sooner I could get my hands one, the better. Palmer’s morbid imagination really makes this series a standout to me, though I think certain dynamics of the first book didn’t sit well with everyone.  For this novel I think it has more mass appeal, but I had a gripe or two.  I guess the pace of the book was a bit of a problem for me.  They spend quite a bit of time talking about the final adversary and yet we don’t even see that stand-off in this book.  Cliffhanger enthusiasts should love it, but I can’t say the same for those of you who don’t.  I just wish it would have wrapped up the novel in a more serial fashion because towards the end I was anticipating a conflict I didn’t get. The book just kind of ended and that was that.

    I do like her efforts to redeem Arturo.  I mean, sometimes the graphic and horrific things he endured got a little hard to stomach, but he had a lot of ground to make up and I think he did that.  Tish was okay. I never really had a problem with her, though her over protectiveness of her brother, while noble, got a little annoying after a while.  The chemistry between Tish and Arturo was s still immensely strong which certainly adds to their appeal.

    I liked the history and back-story about the vampires and other supernatural’s that live in Washington, VC, learning of their gradual deterioration into what they have become and why.  It was thought-provoking and I was often conflicted about the best course of action to fix everything.

    At this point I am sort of wondering if Palmer plans to make this a trilogy or if it’s an ongoing series.  If it’s a trilogy it certainly feels like a middle book.  I feel as if all the issues presented can certainly be resolved in one more.

    MY WOLF’S BANE by Veronica Blade

    Different species.  Mortal enemies. It'll never work, but they'll die trying.

    Autumn Rossi thought she was a normal teenager. Suddenly, she can outrun every critter in the forest; making her wonder if she’s even human.

    When the new guy at school, Zack de Luca, witnesses a questionable scene, he unfairly pins her as stuck-up. He acts like he hates her, yet he keeps bailing her out of trouble. Not only is Zack both insufferable and irresistible, he seems to sniff her anytime he gets close.

    As passion flares between them, Autumn isn’t sure which is more dangerous: her psycho ex-boyfriend, or falling for Zack --- who’s risking his life just by being near her.

  • Michelle Willms

    Thank you so much for the invitation.

  • Michelle Willms

    Toward the end of Feb. would work great. I've never been able to fit anything in, but that gives me enough time to plan. I'd love if we could avoid jumping into the middle of some of the series I've never read - of course most of those are pnr. I'd really really love to exactly what you've suggested - UF. I'm open to author suggestions.

  • Debra Kristi

    Thanks for the invitation, Mandie!

    Welcome newbies!  Glad you joined us.

    Feel free to share books. This one just came through my fb feed. I grabbed info off of her site.

    The Alpha’s Search is available free at MOST outlets.

    For forty years he searched for her. Now that search is over…

    After a search that spanned four decades, Craven isn’t about to let anything stand in the way of his reunion with his fated mate. Even if she has no idea who he is.

    Jackie Coleman might love to read paranormal romance, but she knows it’s only fantasy. It isn’t real life, and no smooth-talking guy is about to convince her otherwise.

    Finding her was the easy part…

    **Not for readers under the age of 18+. Contains language and adult situations.** 

    Gabriel Slade runs Hollywood with his gorgeous blue eyes and egregious temper. No one knows that underneath it all is a man with a frozen heart, cursed to become a beast at every full moon. For seven days he has no choice but to roam the earth as a vicious animal, until he meets a woman who can change it all. 

    Luna Grace has a hatred for everything Gabriel Slade stands for, but she doesn't even know what he looks like. When a chance encounter reveals feelings Luna never knew she harboured, it stands to reason that she would run. 

    Can Luna overcome her hatred and break the curse? Or will Gabriel's temper keep her from realizing her true feelings, dooming him to remain the beast forever?

    Review Update! Rebel Moon

    Rebel Moon: A Grazi Kelly Novel #3Rebel Moon: A Grazi Kelly Novel #3
    By: C.D. Gorri
    My rating: 5 of 5 stars

    ( I received this book free from the author in exchange for my honest review. )

    I am raving. This book topped its predecessors in all aspects of how a story should be told. The constant struggle for Grazi to accept what she is and trying to keep her beliefs strong, is heart breaking. She has to take in, process so much, so fast, while trying to weed out the fact from fiction. Her emotions are run on high, and with no one to really talk to about it, she’s lost, confused and is still unsure of who to trust.

    Review Update! The Dead Days Journal

    The Dead Days Journal : Volume 1The Dead Days Journal : Volume 1
    By: Sandra R. Campbell
    My rating: 3.5 of 5 stars

    ( I received this book free from the author in exchange for my honest review )

    3.5 Stars

    I'm on the fence about this one. There are a lot of aspects I liked and a lot I didn't. Though it was an interesting read, I'm not sure if I actually liked this book or dislike it. It's hard to put down in words. I believe it's because I went into this book with a different image, (one I gather from the book cover and synopsis), thinking one thing and getting another. In any case it was misleading. (I seem to be getting a lot of those lately)Despite all that, this read did keep my interest.

    My rating: 4.5 of 5 stars

    (I received this book free from Goodreads group, {Shut up and Read}[Read it and Reap] in exchange for my honest review.

    This book has made me fall in love with YA again, or can you call it YA, this has more of a NA feeling to it. In all, I'm in deep feels with this wonder.This story is original, and it strayed away from the normal cliché that haunt YA/NA books. For one there was no, NO, insta-love; in fact love wasn't even mentioned.

    Review Update! I Belong To The Earth


    I Belong to the EarthI Belong to the Earth
    By: J.A. Ironside
    My rating: 5 of 5 stars

    ( I received this book free from the author in exchange for my honest review )

    This was a different read for me, so far out of what I normally read. Not in genre but in the story and plot itself. This book is more than your run-of-the-mil YA supernatural/paranormal romance. It felt, to me, like a true ghost story. It wasn't about saving the world; it wasn't about anything other than a broken girl trying to save what little of her family she had left, while trying to come to teams with her own demons. I don't believe I have ever been so emotionally invested in a story before. My heart is still pounding.
