*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.
I thought book one was good but this one totally blows it out of the water!! Lera and her quint are traveling to reinforce their bond instead of severing it. When they reach the place to do it we gets all kinds of drama, action, magic, steamy bits, and so very much more. Honestly there is so much awesomeness going on that I could not bring myself to put the book down once I got started as I had to know what happened next. Amazing world building, characters with layers of depth, and enough surprises to keep you turning the page. After everything that happened in this book I cannot wait to see where this goes next. An absolute must read for fans of the genre. I loved it so I give it 5/5 stars.
Book one in the new Girl, Vampire series and what a great start it is too. First we are introduced to a world that knows vampires exist and a shortened history lesson of an ongoing feud. Fat forward to present time where graduate student Sasha is in the lab late one night. After running to the vending machine she returns to find everyone dead and in no time at all she is under attack as well. Instead of dying she is bitten forcing her to start her new life as a vampire. Unfortunately there is some crazy stuff going on and she so gets thrown right in the middle of all of it. Great world building, lots of details, and more then enough action to really keep you hooked on the story. If you are looking for a good vampire book then I highly recommend this one. I really enjoyed it so I give it 4/5 stars.
*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.
Book one in the brand new Harem of Misery series and what an intriguing start it is too. We meet Pandora who has been trapped inside the box she opened as punishment since it happened. Now for some reason the Gods take her out and challenge her to return to Earth where she will capture three sinful people in the box to earn her freedom. A babysitter is sent with her to keep her in line but there is a nice twist on that later in the story. The development is great explaining what is going on while building an incredible world for us to be in. Tossing Pandora back to reality with pretty much no preparation makes things interesting as she figures everything out. Enter the group of guys just full of sin to get fireworks and more and Pandora tries to take it all in. I am loving the way this story is moving and I am really looking forward to the next one to come out. Great for fans of the genre. I really enjoyed it so I give it 4/5 stars.
Lilith
is just a normal girl working at Hot Topic when she is suddenly
attacked one night by something strange. Enter Dante who saved her only
to whisk her off to a school for supernaturals to keep her safe. What
follows is quite mind blowing and fascinating as the story developments.
I felt like Alice falling down the rabbit hole as each new twist was
revealed. This book has some incredible world building and we'll
developed characters that really keep you guessing. I highly recommend
it to fans of the genre. I really liked it so I give it 4/5 stars.
Dragons, magic, and mystery need I say more? This Book takes us straight
into the supernatural world as the main character finds out that not
only is she a shifter but a special one at that. All she was trying to
do was solve her dad's murder. Great characters, incredible world
building, and enough suspense to keep you hooked until the last page. I
can't wait for the next book! I really liked it so I give it 4/5 stars.
In
this fast-paced thriller, special operative Nathan McBride battles
the most treacherous enemy he’s ever faced—and the one hitting
closest to home.
After
simultaneous deadly terror attacks on San Diego and the nation’s
capital, Nathan learns that the mass murders weren’t random
events—they targeted his family.
And
the threat is far from over. Part of a larger plot involving a
sabotaged North Korean bioweapons facility and an ISIS training camp
in northern Mexico, a third attack—bigger than 9/11—is being
hatched by cold-blooded killers.
With
the US Border Patrol and the CIA supporting the mission, Nathan teams
up with longtime family friend Vincent Beaumont, the CEO of America’s
largest private military contractor.
In
a harrowing firefight, Nathan’s assault team will have to
neutralize the terrorist cell, recover the weapons of mass
destruction, and get them safely across the international border. The
lives of thousands are at risk as Nathan weighs his lust for revenge
against the most crucial part of the mission—taking the ringleaders
alive—which might just cost him his life.
Andrew Peterson is
the internationally bestselling author of the Nathan McBride series.
Born and raised in San Diego, California, he attended La Jolla High
School before enrolling at the University of Oklahoma, where he
earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Architecture.
An excellent
marksman, he holds the classification of Master in the NRA’s High
Power Rifle ranking system. His familiarity with weapons and
dedication to research has resulted in many speaking engagements
ranging from craft workshops to ATF canine demonstrations.
Andrew began writing
fiction in 1990 and sold a short story, Mr. Haggarty’s Stop, to San
Diego Writers Monthly in October, 1992. After attending his first
writer’s conference in 2005, where he met Ridley Pearson, he became
serious about writing the Nathan McBride stories.
FIRST TO KILL (FTK)
is Andrew’s debut thriller which features Nathan McBride, the
brutally effective, trained Marine scout sniper and former CIA
operations officer. FTK was originally published in 2008 by
Dorchester Publishing as a mass market paperback. Early in January
2011, Andrew signed with Thomas and Mercer. Then in 2012, FTK was
re-released in trade paperback, eBook, and audiobook editions. FTK
has been translated into seven languages.
Andrew had the
privilege of attending Operation Thriller II, a 2011 USO tour to
Afghanistan where he personally thanked our troops for their service.
He traveled with fellow authors Sandra Brown, Kathy Reichs, Clive
Cussler and Mark Bowden. He considers the USO tour one of the
highlights of his life. To date, Andrew has donated over 3,000 books
to our troops serving overseas and to our wounded warriors recovering
in Naval and Army hospitals worldwide.
When he’s not
writing the popular Nathan McBride series, Andrew enjoys scuba
diving, target shooting, flying helicopters, hiking and camping, and
an occasional (and questionable) round of golf. Andrew and his wife,
Carla, live in Monterey County, California with their dogs.
Superhero High T.H. Hernandez Published by: Soul Mate Publishing Publication date: July 5th 2018 Genres: Adventure, Science Fiction, Young Adult
Sixteen-year-old Annarenee Stevens is the sole member of her family without a super power. The only time she feels powerful is in the pool. With her sights set on swimming for U.C. Berkeley, she’s ready to win it all at the State championship and secure her future.
When the government unexpectedly ends the secret Genetically Enhanced Asset (GEA) program, Annarenee is uprooted from Dayton, the only home she’s ever known, and relocated to San Diego with all of the other GEA families. Queen of her public school, Annarenee is just another zero at Superhero High, a school without any sports teams.
With the end of the program, her hero older brother now needs a college education, too, meaning the only way Annarenee is getting into Berkeley is on a scholarship. Her dream is slipping through her fingers, no matter how tightly she clings to it. To make matters worse, super hot superhero, Ren Gonzalez, is paying too much attention to her. The kind of attention that has Ren’s ex-girlfriend intent on making Annarenee’s life even more miserable.
But when heroes begin disappearing, zeros and heroes will be forced to team up in order to solve the mystery. If they don’t kill each other first.
Smith slides in beside me and drapes his arm around me, kissing the side of my head.
Ryan glances over his shoulder before backing up. “You guys are coming tonight, right?”
“Wouldn’t miss it,” Smith answers for both of us.
The drive to my house is less than five minutes. On the way Smith leans in and whispers in my ear, “Anyone going to be home?”
I shake my head then wonder if I should have lied. Smith’s been hinting more frequently that he wants to have sex. We’ve been dating for three months, but unlike Smith, I’m not ready. Call me old-fashioned, but I want my first time to be special. I like Smith, he’s cute, popular, and funny, but I’m not in love with him. Plus, I’m pretty sure you shouldn’t keep secrets from the person you share the most intimate part of yourself with, and I’m keeping a huge secret from Smith.
We pull up in front of my house, and Smith and I hop out, grabbing our stuff from the back.
“I’ll call you later,” Ronny yells as Ryan roars off.
I wave as they turn the corner and disappear, nerves twisting in my belly as Smith takes my hand. I glance at him, my gaze drawn to his crystal blue eyes beneath messy-wild blond hair. Smith moved here last summer and rapidly became one of the most popular guys in our class. He’s always tan and his body is cut, a result of time spent in the pool or surfing in his native Florida. Every single girl in our school, and possibly even a few with boyfriends, would be thrilled to have my problem. I need to figure this out soon before he decides he’s tired of waiting.
Smith guides me up the walkway toward the porch, and I wonder how far I can let him go this time before I put on the brakes.
Our front door opens and two men dressed in black suits, white button-ups, black ties, and sunglasses exit our house. The taller of the two seems to size me up behind his dark lenses before he nods and passes. I turn and watch them get into a black Escalade parked across the street.
My brother, Noah, cruises up and parks his vintage blue Mustang convertible in the driveway. He climbs out, his eyes glued to the SUV as it pulls away from the curb.
Smith snorts. “What are the Blues Brothers doing here?”
I don’t share his humor and instead turn toward my brother, eyebrows raised in silent question.
Noah shakes his head, and inside my own head, I hear, “I don’t know, they were blocking me.”
A chill runs through me starting in the pit of my stomach. It’s not unusual to get a visit from the Men in Black, but my parents should be at work, and Noah should still be at his school for another couple of hours. Something is wrong.
“Don’t panic, AR,” Noah says in my head.
I turn to Smith, “Um, I’ll call you later, okay? Pick me up at eight?”
He leans in and kisses my cheek. “Sure. Wear something sexy.” He smiles and waggles his eyebrows.
“Douchebag,” Noah says only to me before heading inside.

*I received a free copy of this book which I voluntarily chose to write an honest review for.
Book two in the The Witch's Rebel series. I fell in love with book one so I could not wait to get my hands on this but I have to say it took forever to really get moving. Gray has a lot of stuff to deal with and it all seems to come out during the first part of the book making it more emotional then anything else. I honestly wanted to smack her a few times and tell her to get over it. Then the action started, the steamy stuff started, and a few surprise were thrown in the mix just to keep us on our toes leading to a cliff hanger of an ending. Once the book got moving it was really great you just have to power through the beginning to get there. Thanks to the second half I can still give it 4/5 stars which makes happy after the love for book one.
Best take
on Rapunzal ever! This poor girl is stuck in a tower with her crazy long
hair and a mean gargoyle guard. After years of this she manages to
sneak out for a spell that only solves half her problems. Add in three
hot shifters and things really get going. I was loving the little twists
involved and the attacking hair just mad my day. Plenty of surprises
and lots of action in the second half to keep you guessing. Great
conclusion as well. I enjoy how these are standalones yet interconnected
at the same. If you like RH remakes of classic stories then this is the
Book for you. I really enjoyed it so I give it 4/5 stars.

Three
trials stand between Lera and exile. Unless the training kills her first.
Quint magic has never chosen a human before, and the Elders Council is
convinced Lera is a mistake.
When the quint refuses to be cleaved apart, the enraged elders give them a
choice: exile from Lunos or demotion to the lowest of trainees. Subject again
to the humiliations and deadly trials they endured centuries ago, the males now
face a new challenge—training Lera to survive.
River, Shade, Coal, and Tye will do whatever it takes to keep Lera safe. But
Lera will do whatever she must to keep them together—even if it means putting
herself in mortal danger.
Four elite fae warriors. One mortal female. A magical bond they
can’t allow—or resist.
Orphaned and sold to a harsh master, Lera’s life is about mucking stalls,
avoiding her master’s advances, and steering clear of the mystical forest
separating the mortal and fae worlds. Only fools venture into the immortal
realms, and only dark rumors come out... Until four powerful fae warriors
appear at Lera’s barn.
River, Coal, Tye, and Shade have waited a decade for their new fifth to be
chosen, the wounds from their quint brother’s loss still raw. But the magic has
played a cruel trick, bonding the four immortal warriors to... a female. A
mortal female.
Distractingly beautiful and dangerously frail, Lera can only be one thing—a
mistake. Yet as the males bring Lera back to the fae lands to sever the bond,
they discover that she holds more power over their souls than is safe for
anyone... especially for Lera herself.
Power of Five is a full-length reverse-harem fantasy novel.
Excerpt:
Four hours and then we’ll be there.
Asking the Elders Council to accept our oath as a quint. My chest tightens,
nausea shifting my stomach. If the rest of the Elders Council is anything like
Klarissa- the gorgeous, manipulative viper who tried to have me killed- then the
five of us are walking into a predator’s open maw.
I’d expected that the decision to remain
a quint would bring a calm finality with it. The knot on a braid’s end. It
didn’t. If anything the knot is at the braid’s beginning, with the weave still
to come. With snags to be untangled along the way.
My head spins as Shade reluctantly sets
me on my feet, the enormity of the past quarter hour hitting me as brightly as
the light. What in the bloody stars have I done, swearing to be a warrior that
I can never become? A shiver runs down my spine. What if we never leave the
Citadel, the males trapped here like caged animals because of me?
My body begs me to defend it. Something
inside me rises to answer the plea, the sensation so native that I know the
something inside me is mine- and yet I”m just as certain that I’ve never felt
it before. Don’t even know what it is.
It’s all for me, I realize. The males’
willingness to endure humiliations that should be hundreds of years behind
them. To drop to their knees on the hard council floor and accept runes that
trap them in a place they despise. My throat constricts, a sense of belonging,
of fierce connection, filling my soul. I don’t know how I can ever repay the
four warriors for the gift, but I will.

Toes
by Kim Deister
Two lives turned upside down.
Two big secrets. One steamy vacation in the Hawaiian islands. Will
Ireland and Sully find what they want most in each other?
Ireland
needed a break. It had been a rough year and she needed a fresh
start. Her coven was embroiled in a civil war and when she refused to
fall in line with the rest of them, she was kicked to the curb. By
her friends, by her family, even by her boyfriend. She'd moved past
the grief stage, even past the anger stage. For the first time in her
life, she was free to do what she wanted. She had no one's
expectations to fill but her own. So, she decided to celebrate. She
bought herself a three-week vacation to Hawaii. No responsibilities.
Just fun in the sun and time to figure out what was next for
her.
When Sully brought home two tickets to Hawaii, he thought
Kallie would be thrilled. He'd envisioned three idyllic weeks on a
tropical island. Swimming in the ocean, laying on the beach, catching
a few waves, and eating in world class restaurants. But within an
hour, he found himself holding an extra ticket as he watched Kallie
put the last of her bags in another man's truck. He'd torn up that
ticket and flushed the pieces down the toilet. But he still had every
intention of using that other ticket. Maybe some time alone was
exactly what he needed.

will they get burned by their flames?
The most sought
after hired gun. She’s ruthless, but even killers need a vacation.
He’s being hunted and there’s only one warrior strong enough to
keep him alive. A king whose seeking protection and a killer
searching for peace, but in each other they find so much more. When
survival instincts kick in, so do their primitive instincts. This
summer won’t be the only thing heating up.

My
name is Kim
and my last name, Deister,
is pronounced “Die-ster.” I always tell my husband I should have
kept my married name, Ingram. So much easier to to pronounce!
I
am a writer thoroughly in love with words. Reading them, writing
them… I love that words can take you outside of your world and let
the unimaginable become imaginable. I love them so much that I
decided I needed to create some worlds and stories of my own!
Besides
being a writer, I am an Army veteran (and Army wife) and a mom to
four sons. I grew up in northern New York in a tiny college town
called Potsdam. Over the years, our Army life has taken us all over
the place and I have been lucky enough to work and live in some
pretty amazing places. Right now we live in Hawaii on the island of
O’ahu, minutes from the North Shore.
Creatively
living through music, writing and yoga.
I
love the arts and how they move you and make you feel.
Reading
has always been a great love of mine right after my love of music.
Each song written is a story waiting to be told. Which, along with my
over active imagination fueled my desire to write about the chaos
that goes on in my head.
I
love stringing words together. I love making people get lost in a
story and connecting with fictional characters that remind them of
someone they know.
I
published my first book Shattered in 2013. It’s the first
installment in the Shattered Hearts Series. Shattered started out as
an assignment for a college course I took at John Jay College of
Criminal Justice. After I graduated college I went through my old
papers and reconnected with the story morphing into so much more then
what I wrote in my college course.
Now
you can find me doing yoga, listening to music and working on getting
out all the stories in my head, including dabbling in poetry. (Which
I've always had a secret love affair with).
