Book blurb


The universe brought them together...can it tear them apart?

Eden Warren's world is about to change. When she's uprooted from her laid back Midwestern lifestyle and thrown into the fast-paced society of Washington D.C.'s elite, she finds herself enrolled in school with Andrew Wellington, the president's gorgeous son.

But Andrew is not known for his good looks alone. He is famously known as "First Disaster" for his reputation as America's biggest player. And he has set his sights on Eden. Eden is less than impressed by Andrew's antics and has no intention of becoming his latest conquest.

What could this former bad boy do to convince Eden that he has truly changed his ways, especially when she discovers he's hiding a government-protected secret that could permanently alter the course of life on Earth?

Andrew Hess

Its been three silent years since anyone has seen or heard from the Revolution group. Prisoner 845 has been locked in solitary confinement, for his own protection, has decided its time to let go of some secrets. Mason was once a very rich and powerful man who controlled a whole country. He was the President of the United States and the master mind behind the Revolution group. He was known as the "Benefactor". Once word got out that he was going to see the current President of the US, the group was called once again to take care of business. 
Things get wild and one by one the group is being hunted down, not knowing who to trust and what is behind each corner Agent Peterson and his small group of officials will do what it takes.. . . .

This was a very thrilling read! You for sure did not what or who was coming around each corner, or page you turned. The characters are easy to understand and fit so well, at times you was wondering who really was the bad guy. Pieces from the story fit so well together and I for sure did not see many things that were to come ! Sit back and hold on for a wonderful thrilling ride thru a novel of government conspiracy.

A night on the town and I find myself wrapped in the arms of one gorgeous, drop-dead-sexy man, Corban. He has literally swept me off my feet, taken my breath away with a single kiss and left me wanting more, a feeling completely alien to me.

Corban Andrews, CEO of Case Construction, rich, sexy and ravishing is set to make my world come undone. I allow myself to put my trust in him, but will his rules and my trust issues let us explore what we could have together? It’s either that or am I at risk of staying lost and alone.

When a blast from my past reappears, I know I may be pushed so far down the rabbit hole, Corban and I just may not survive. It all comes down to survival and choices. I have no idea which I will choose.

Dark Strangers by Aj Storm

Dark Strangers


       Tammie knows that her longtime friend needs to find her special someone. She knows Jennifer would be perfect for her childhood friend Derek. Derek has been searching for his mate as well and Tammie is ready to set them up. Now the problem is to gently lead Jennifer into a world she knows nothing about.

This is a good read. Short and full of awesome hot sex scenes. For adults only. I enjoyed the story over all but I wish I had gotten more of the individual couples that are brought together. A story worth reading for sure. I'm looking forward to more from this author. Defiantly an author to watch.

review for Miss Taken #1 by cleo scornavacca

Miss Taken (miss taken #1)
by Cleo Scornavacca

Rain and Raven Medici are identical twins. Although they come from a loving close-knit family their childhoods couldn’t have been more different. Raven went to school and was exposed freely to the outside world. Rain on the other hand was born with a blood disorder and denied many normal childhood experiences.

Once grown, Raven becomes a lawyer at their dad’s firm Kane & Medici in NYC. Rain along with her only childhood friend Tommy Conte, builds a very successful business as professional photographers. Traveling between Europe and Manhattan, and enjoying a world that was kept from her, Rain vows never to be controlled again.

Dominick Kane is a product of his upbringing. He’s powerful, self-assured and knows he can achieve anything he desires. Nothing gets in his way. There is only one thing he has ever failed at. A relationship with his father Vincent Kane. Upon his father’s death, Dominick vows revenge. The events he sets in motion put him on a collision course he himself will be unable to control.

In a bizarre twist of fate, Dominick kidnaps Raven as part of his plan for revenge. Only to discover afterward, he has taken Rain by mistake. Rain knows she can never survive being confined again. So she strikes a bargain with the devil and agrees to help Dominick get back what he feels rightly belongs to him. His father’s share of Kane & Medici.

Dominick decides to use the strong attraction growing between Rain and himself to control her in every way imaginable. Too bad no one ever taught Dominick you can’t control the heart. Nothing could have prepared him for the effect Rain would have on his.

Will this plan of revenge turn into unconditional love? Or will Dominick and Rain’s need for control ultimately destroy them and any possible chance for a real future
together.

It did started little slow but after rain passed out and woke up boom it all started.... it pulled me right in to very end.. rain was amazing and strong women little mixed on her feeling but she has tons reason be like that... don't know if i like tommy like that if my best friend text me saying she was kidnapped no matter if i was guy or girl i'll help no matter what.

Review of The House by Karli Rush

 Rich is a college Student, and a Paranormal Investigator with his buddies.  They have all the cool gear to Investigate Paranormal.
Rich finally gets the nerve to ask Keria  out on a date.
Not an ordinary date he takes her to a house on edge of town that is supposedly haunted.  A House with a very violent past and it does not welcome intruders nicely. What happens next sends chills down you spine.
Wow, a book that is full of so much paranormal and creepy with a capital "C".   I love watching these type of shows on TV.  Not one has ever come close as this book to make me rethink being a Paranormal Investigator would be fun.
This book sent chills down my spine!  Very Detail Oriented , this book pulled me in as if I was one of them and going through the ordeal of this House Being Alive with something or someone.
I Highly Recommend this Book.

review for she-wolf (blood series prequel) by elizabeth morgon

She-Wolf (blood series prequel)
by Elizabeth Morgon

Dealing with the Rogue Werewolves terrorizing his Pack? Simple.
Trying to convince his mate he does want to be with her? Bloody impossible.

Owen MacLaren is the Alpha's son and the Pack's second, and he has never been one to let anything get to him. So when a bunch of Rogues begin purposely dumping mutilated bodies around the Pack Keep, he is more than ready to deal with the Werewolves responsible.

But one night off and a trip to a local strip joint for a colleague's stag night changes things, and Owen soon discovers he isn't immune to everything . . . .

Being an independent Loup and travelling the world? Easy.
Having to come home and face the Werewolf who broke her young heart? Challenging.

After five years away, Clare Walker finds herself back home in Scotland, working in a strip club. The tips are decent, and she gets to dance, but it isn't a place she thought she would ever be, let alone Owen, her Pack second and the mate she has always desired.

Although Owen is determined to prove he wants to be with Clare, things can't go smoothly between them, not when they have past issues to sort out and a bunch of unusual 'Rogues' to deal with.

This title contains explicit language, violence, and graphic sex.


I really enjoyed it reading this she-wolf was amazing and well-written.. I had hard time putting book down just needed to know what happen.. It keep me on edge... owen and clare holy crap was they amazing together.. Can't wait for book 2 come out hope soon....

REVIEW . . . . Lost Innocence by Simon Palmer

Michael Walker is a talented artist, when he lands a scholarship to a very prestige art college in London, he decides to make a trip to Thailand. Once in Bangkok he rents a studio and does what he came to do, sketch. Michael doesn't sketch just anything but something he always wanted to do, sketch "working girls" that work in the hostess bars. He soon gets into his own routine and soon finds he living his dream. . . . he thinks. . . .

Michael soon finds himself tangled into a mess of deceit that lands him in the Thailand prison. This is one place no one wants to find himself, ex-specially a foreigner to the country.  He soon learns he is in the middle of a scam, Michael is determined to claim his innocence. Michael befriends John who is a lifer in this depressing place, he helps Michael along the way. Others that claim to help will only be enemies. Michael's father, Stan and grandfather, Nigel are both lawyers and do all they can to get Micheal out of prison.

What a wonderful, fast paced read ! ! ! I could not get Michael out of my mind and hated having to put this one down. Michael is a strong character, he never gave up and fought for what he believe. Nigel does not disappoint either, I feel in love with Nigel, he was strong and very smart! He was willing to do what ever it took to make sure Michael was taken care of. Michael's father Stan, was a different story, although he tried to help he seemed to screw things up ! I felt for Michael being a country that is not his own, not really knowing his rights and dealing with a corrupt judicial system.    Michael never gave up ! ! I look forward to book 2 ! ! !

Review of Sasha's Dilemma (Dilemma #1) by T.L. Smith

Sasha's Dilemma (Dilemma #1)
by T.L. Smith 

LOVE— it’s a common word that people take for granted. As for me, Sasha Adams, I have seen that love isn’t everything, though sometimes it’s meant to be. But to be honest, I never wanted it. That has been my plan for as long as I can remember. The only person I ever wanted to love is my sister Lola. But then I met not one no, not even two— but three beautiful men. 
Dylan, the doctor, had his head screwed on tight. Josh, well, he was a tattooed sex machine playboy. Then there was Brax, the rock star. It was clear they all wanted my heart, but I wouldn’t give it to any of them willingly. 

Unwillingly, I fell hard, but there was a part of me that knew he could destroy me. So I refused to give him all of me, and now he’s returned and determined to win me back. But it’s too late, isn’t it?

Holy s***!! wow I do believe i just best author ever and few other's too.. but damn sasha's got me good one minute laughing my ass off then next i just want to hit somebody then all over again.. don't let me start on her BFF and josh i just cried my eyes out.. end of the book just i dont know maybe you do I was so choked up i guess there no words for it..... ok ok little more about this book but not much give away to new reader's........ 1 this book is amazing 2 you better have tissues out 3. it have you laughing too... okay to the guys now dylan he was okay..... now josh let me tell you loved him!!!! yes he crazy and very controlling,super bad ass and sweet at the same time but i really do see why he was like that......"sign" now starting to tear up..... don't know how too feel about brax yet i guess ill have too wait and see when book 2 comes out..

First glimpse at Taken by Royalty Unedited chapter 1 of book 3 of The White Alpha of Monroe Series


Photo: Chapter 1
Angie
           As I laid in my bed, I shivered at where my thoughts were going. As the weeks have passed by, there've been so many changes in my life. Here in the town of Monroe, on the coast of Lake Erie in southern Michigan, was normally quiet and I knew my place in the pack. With Simon’s daughter Sally and her mate Tony as new betas, things have started to change. As I closed my eyes I thought back to that fait filled day that changed my life forever.
          We were in the back of The Wild Bone, a bar owned by our alpha. As werewolves we liked to be together as pack and this is where we could do so without fear from humans. Alex our beta of the pack had been stirring up trouble. A bunch of us were there in the bar talking about how Sally and Tony had to be taken care of. Alex was denying that Sally was an Alpha. I had my doubts as well but that was the talk of the town.
         “I heard she’s an actual alpha.” I said to the group.
         That was all it took for Alex. He looked at me and chills ran down my back. His eyes glowed red and you could taste the anger from him in the air.
        Cathy, a human and Sally’s best friend, came up to the group of us. I didn’t know if she was stupid or really brave. Alex was furious. I wanted to run but was blocked off by other pack mates. Cathy mentioned that Sally had already kicked his ass and couldn’t wait to see it again. And that Sally will make such a better Beta than Alex. Now we all knew that Alex couldn’t touch Cathy without bringing in the Monroe Police.
         Just like every time I’d had this dream, I saw it the same way each time. Alex turned to me and grabbed me by the back of the head. Dragging me into the women’s bathroom, I stared at Cathy. No, I pleaded with my eyes, “Help me!” I knew he was going to kill me. He was livid. Alex was so strong. There was nothing I could do to stop him. Alone in the bathroom, Alex used his fists and claws, on me. I curled up in a ball to protect myself as best as I could. Alex got up off me and walked around me, stalking his prey. I peeked up through my arms and saw the blood all over and realized it was my own. He saw my eyes and smiled an evil wicked smile.
           “I am going to kill you now for siding with that piece of shit human. You are traitor to our kind and to the pack." Just then I felt him pounce on me. He ripped into my neck and I felt him pull at my flesh, shredding me apart. I felt the blood pouring from me and knew I was about to die.
        I woke up screaming in my bed. The tears poured from of eyes. The pain still fresh in my mind. I opened my eyes and looked around, the bathroom was gone. Alex was not in the room and the blood that covered everything was not
spattered everywhere. Taking in huge gulps of air I tried to calm down, I was shaking all over and couldn’t stop. How could my pack mate do that to me? I was no threat to him. Alex ruined my life. I was afraid of everything now. Just then the door to my bedroom shattered apart.

Cathy mentioned that Sally had already kicked his ass and couldn’t wait to see it again. And that Sally will make such a better Beta than Alex. Now we all knew that Alex couldn’t touch Cathy without bringing in the Monroe Police.
Just like every time I’d had this dream, I saw it the same way each time. Alex turned to me and grabbed me by the back of the head. Dragging me into the women’s bathroom, I stared at Cathy. No, I pleaded with my eyes, “Help me!” I knew he was going to kill me. He was livid. Alex was so strong. There was nothing I could do to stop him. Alone in the bathroom, Alex used his fists and claws, on me. I curled up in a ball to protect myself as best as I could. Alex got up off me and walked around me, stalking his prey. I peeked up through my arms and saw the blood all over and realized it was my own. He saw my eyes and smiled an evil wicked smile.
          “I am going to kill you now for siding with that piece of shit human. You are traitor to our kind and to the pack." Just then I felt him pounce on me. He ripped into my neck and I felt him pull at my flesh, shredding me apart. I felt the blood pouring from me and knew I was about to die.
         I woke up screaming in my bed. The tears poured from of eyes. The pain still fresh in my mind. I opened my eyes and looked around, the bathroom was gone. Alex was not in the room and the blood that covered everything was not spattered everywhere. Taking in huge gulps of air I tried to calm down, I was shaking all over and couldn’t stop. How could my pack mate do that to me? I was no threat to him. Alex ruined my life. I was afraid of everything now. Just then the door to my bedroom shattered apart.

The Poisoned Emerald: The Pendant Trilogy by: Sarena and Sasha Nanua

The Poisoned Emerald (Pendant Trilogy, #3)The poison is spreading....

I wrapped myself in the portal’s embrace and felt my feet land on a new surface. I stood on a sandy beach that was wet and damp, causing the ground to stick to my shoes. The portal snapped shut, and I felt misty rain dance on my shoulders. Thunder sounded from overhead, and before I could comprehend the impending storm, a gash of lightning hit the hill just to the right of the river. The ground quaked below me before an explosion of sand burst from the ground.

AS WINTER ARRIVES Arica Miller is back to regular school life at Hill Valley. After resolving the disappearance of the King’s Jewel and returning it safely, Arica doesn’t expect anything else to go wrong. Too soon does Arica learn that a great evil—a poison—has spread through the Sorcerers Underworld, threatening to take away all magic. And worse, the only person who can save the magical world has been kidnapped: the king. In order to find the king, Arica and her friends must follow an ancient prophecy in which they must defeat vicious creatures, travel through mysterious forests, and restore peace to the poisoned land—no matter how dangerous it could be … In this final installment of The Pendant Trilogy, Arica learns of dark pasts, unknowable futures, and the truth of the pendant’s origin. Arica doesn’t have much time left—and if she fails, the mortal and the magical worlds are both at stake.

Review of The Magician By Anne Montgomery

The Magician By Anne Montgomery

Writer Kate Butler was hired by her magazine to write an article about the 900 year old mummy that was found in Arizona.  She talks to a lot of people to find out who the man was, why he was so different from the people who he lived with, and why he had so many treasures buried with him.  She also learns about looting and why a lot of the items will be forever lost. 

As the main character is figuring out the man behind the mummy, the author takes us 900 years into the past, to tell us the story of what really happened to a tribe that had been affected by a volcano eruption on the land where they chose to live .  It was nice looking into the lives of the people and how they lived, what they believed in, the every day items they made, and how certain items that seemed to belong in other parts of the world got to the camp. 

This was a very good book, telling both the modern story of discovery and the ancient story of the lives of the tribe members.  It had a lot of native American history and explained a lot about some of the items that we consider artifacts now.  I give this book 5 out of 5 stars!
