The Last Bucelarii (Book 3): Gateway to the Past

The Hunter, legendary assassin of Voramis, has a purpose: protect Hailen, the boy he rescued from a demon in Malandria.

He joins a caravan in the hope of safe passage across the Advanat Desert. Yet he cannot outrun his enemies: the Illusionist Cleric on a holy mission to capture him, the bloodthirsty raiders out for blood and gold, and the Abiarazi, demons who masquerade as humans.

Every step north reveals who he was before becoming the Hunter, unlocking the truth about the woman who haunts his memories.

Fans of Joe Abercrombie, Brandon Sanderson, and Brent Weeks will love the Hunter…
                   
                           MY REVIEW 
  
  I  was so excited when this showed up on my kindle to read . I love this series so much . The first book pulled me in and the second book had me hooked . This book just kept me on the edge of me seat.  This book dives deeper into the Hunter and what is fueling him as he tries to out run some demons and getting closer  to the secrets of his past .
    When we meet the Hunter again he and his young charge Hailen is heading away from the city. They join a caravan where things get pretty bad and the Hunter is forced to use his dagger to protect  the young child , who actually calms the demon inside the hunter . When the hunter is forced to kill to keep the child safe, and to find the answers he needs.
   I must say that Hailen is the perfect companion for the Hunter . He has such a good calming influence on the Hunter . Hailen is your typical little boy with such a special gift . You just want to cuddle him and hug him and love him . He has his good moments and his typical boy moments of wanting and whining. Buy what child doesn't have those moments .
 The hunter in this book is becoming more and more human . He still has his half demon side that wants the blood of the evil . But the human side of him is starting to get his memories back and wants to find out what he was before becoming the Bucelarii . As he remembers the memories , you want to hug him and tell him that things will be ok. You also feel him start to think about his actions and how they work. He is growing and becoming more then just the killing machine he was in book one and two .
    The author takes us on an adventure this time . We go along on a caravan ride with people you don't know if you should trust or not . We trek through the desert wasteland . We see him fight the Illusionist Cleric and the demons masquerading as people . The author paints such a stunning picture as you read this book . You will actually cheer for the Hunter and shed a tear every now and then . You will want to take care of  Hailen and the hunter . You might get angry with the characters but don't throw your kindle . Kindles are expensive . But I will say you will enjoy this whole series . So if you want a great series check out the Bucelarii series . I suggest you read book one and two so you know what's going on in book three . So if you want a really good dark fantasy series that will leave you wanting more . Check them out , I promise you will not be disappointed

GOOD THURSDAY TO ALL OF YOU

   Good Thursday all, today we are going to review a new book by an Canadian author . Who I love her other work . Let me introduce you to ROYAL PRICE ( BDSM bad boy romance ) by Kate Nova


                        BOOK BLURB


  
When it comes to women, Roman Wilder is used to getting what he wants. Not only is he a wildly handsome billionaire (aren't they all?), but he just so happens to be a complete and total prick. A Royal prick, at that.

Tess Davenport is looking for a bit of excitement in her otherwise ordinary life. What's wrong with a girl wanting some adventure? But when she comes face to face with the mysterious stranger, nothing could prepare her for the wild ride he is about to take her on, or how far she'll be willing to go to please him.

Will Tess be open to exploring her darkest fantasies with a skilled Dominant who with conquer without mercy?

Note To Readers: This is a BBW contemporary romance, featuring BDSM scenes between a Dominant Royal (Roman Wilder), and his submissive (Tess Davenport). This book is an erotic romance with explicit sex between a curvy woman, and a bad boy alpha male who knows how to make a woman abandon all comfort zones.

                           MY REVIEW
    This is the first book by Kate Nova and i was so happy when I got to read this short but hot and oh sexy book . This is a BDSM book and i will say it is brilliantly written . The characters are both strong and complex . So let me introduce you to Roman and Tess .
   Roman Wilder what can we say about him. He is oh so sexy and let me say he gets what he wants in every aspect of his life . People might say he is a prick a royal prick that is . There is such an alpha side to him . He oozes sex appeal and can have any woman he wants . But there is a side of him that most people don't see. The softer side the side that is hurting and doesn't want to hurt anyone . Ladies you will so swoon when you meet Roman and your panties will drop trust me on that one.  He is tall dark, handsome and you will want to fix him .
   Tess is a sweet girl who works in her father's jewelery story . She is more then what she seems at the begining but she has a wild side to her . When she meets Roman you can see the sparks fly and she becomes such a strong woman as she explores with Roman . She pushes Roman's buttons like noone else can . She wants to know what is haunting Roman . These two are great individually but together they are hot and i mean hot .
    The author takes us on a ride . I usually don't really read BDSM books cause they are 
 just not that well written. They usually have naive female characters and the male characters are so well just bad . This author doesn't . she takes care of her characters and doesn't make them too stupid to breathe . Like I said the characters are well written and complex . The BDSM scenes are well written and have realism to them . I mean this book isn't for anyone who is of feint of heart . So if you aren't into spanking , tying up and other BDSM this might not be the book for you. If you like bad boys , curvy woman and explicit sex and BDSM  check out ROYAL PRICK  by Kate Nova

Soar with the Dragons…
Stoke the flames that 13 of your favorite NY Times, USA Today and International Bestselling authors have ignited with their ALL NEW, NEVER BEFORE PUBLISHED fiery tales of the scorching passion that erupts when a dragon is united with their soul-mate.

Dragonslayer, Dragon Heart by Isobelle Cate

Heart of a Dragon by L.J. Garland

Scorched Hearts by Victoria Zak

                      MY REVIEW   
   This book has thirteen stories of dragons and the ones who are brave enough to love them . The stories are varied and each writer has her own way of weaving a story ,  They take us on such a roller coaster ride of emotions .
  My favourite story has to be Victoria Zak's Scorched Hearts . She takes us on a journey of a female Dragon Bex who has suppressed her dragon and hasn't done a shift. When she is drawn to a small town where she meets her mate and realizes that she doesn't have to be scared of her dragon .  I loved her characters and the story is so hot in so many words .
   In SOUL FIRE by Kelly Abell . We have a real tear jerker , we have Gaberial trying to find a cure to a curse that is plaguing his wife . The evil Medea has but a curse on her dragon . And is bound by the soul fire stone to do her biding . Even destroy the ones she loves . Will their love survive and break the curse .
  In FIRE AND ICE by Kate Richardson . This one had me laughing out loud . When Claire's aunt sends her to New Orleans  Dragon Shifter Ling Lee is suppose to find his mate soon and Claire was suppose to just have fun . Until they meet and sparks fly . They are so fun to read and there are other shifters that make appearances in the book you will laugh so hard .
  The other stories were fun to read but didn't seem to catch my attention like the three I have read . They were good but they seemed to lag a bit in some areas . Over all the series is good and the authors did a really good job in their writings . I know how hard it is for authors to write a story for an anthology . So if you want a great set of books that will have you panting at the alpha men and cheering for the women who love them . Dragons are such a hot read . So if you want a good set of stories that will leave you wanting more . Check out STOKING THE FLAMES  anthology

GOOD MONDAY MORNING ALL

   Good Monday all , hope everyone survived the weekend . Today we are going to review a book that is up for pre order. TROUBLED SPIRITS by Sandy Wolters

                            BOOK BLURB



Jody has been a conduit for ghosts her entire life. Not only do they come to her for help, but at times she experiences what they feel when they die. This gift or curse comes at a high personal cost—especially when a child is involved. There’s not a man alive who is willing to compete with troubled spirits.

Jared, a wealthy and determined high-powered P.I., has lived without love his entire life. In business if he wants something, he goes after it with a vengeance and is usually not denied. His life experiences have taught him that believing and trusting in others is a dead end street.

But on one magical night Jared meets Jody, and they soon find themselves on the brink of falling in love. But will the spirits surrounding Jody relinquish their hold on her in order for Jared to stake his claim or will their love disappear in an ethereal puff of smoke.

                            MY REVIEW
      I was so excited when I found out that Sandy had a new book coming out . Her books are always such a great read . This new book had me staying up all night to finish reading .
  Let me introduce you to Jody , a ghost whisperer by all sense of the word . She is a conduit for the dead to talk to the living  and trials that befall her when a young girl enters her life and reeks havoc . Enter Jared a PI who doesn't believe in the pyshics and the ghost realm . But when he meets Jody everything changes and will they survive what the ghost world or will their love go up in smoke .
     I loved the characters in this story . Jody is such a sweet and lovable woman . Who is the real deal when it comes to communicating with ghosts. But she is also very sad and lonely . You can feel it coming off the pages at you . She is stronger then she appears . When she meets a little girl. Fiona you see her strength come through big time . You will love her strength and her capacity at loving . Jared is the alpha man that doesn't believe in pyshics . His childhood was marred with parents that had no time for him. He has all the wealth a man could want . Until the fated day he meets Jody and the tables are turned . He is head over heels in love with her and will do anything to keep her safe . They are such a great couple together . They are sweet and lovable . They will make your heart beat a little faster
    The author takes us on such a journey in this book . I had an ugly cry when i was reading . There is one scene that you will cry , but that ugly cry is actually tears of joy and happiness . This book had me thinking of the show Ghost whisperer . The way the author wrote is like watching a movie in your head . You see the characters and how they interact in your mind vividly .  It flows so well and the characters are so complex you will fall in love them . This story is like all the other books this author has written . They are sweet and sexy with such a passion . You will be swooning and reading all night long .  So check out Troubled Spirits its up for pre order right now . Release date is may 5th

welcome to hump day Wednesday all

 Welcome to Wednesday all . Today is graphic novel day and we are going to review LUCIFER volume 2 FATHER LUCIFER  by Holly Black

                         BOOK BLURB

 
After being wrongfully accused of deicide by his angelic brethren, the Prince of Hell undertook an epic quest through the cosmos to clear his name. Now he wants nothing more than to retire to his Los Angeles club, Ex Lux, and drown the world’s sorrows one drink at a time.

With the throne of Heaven still vacant, archangels are turning on each other in an effort to seize their absent Father’s crown. And since the Lightbringer has no desire to revisit his former kingdom, a vicious power struggle has erupted in the infernal realm, as well.

Caught between chaos above and below, Earth has never been more vulnerable. In order to keep his terrestrial retreat safe from collateral damage, Lucifer must reluctantly rejoin the fight for control over Creation. But as the battle rages, the aftershocks from his Father’s demise are growing strongersh and making it clear that some fates really are worse than death.

The saga of the world’s original antihero reaches new heights (and depths) in LUCIFER VOL. 2: FATHER LUCIFER, collecting issues #7-12 of the acclaimed series from author Holly Black (The Spiderwick Chronicles) and artist Lee Garbett (Loki).
                 
                           MY REVIEW
     I kind of got excited when i saw that DC an Vertigo were rebooting a lot of there series . Then when i saw that LUCIFER was getting the reboot . I got excited and it to be done by a woman it was even better . In volume two we have Lucifer basically drownin his sorrows in his bar after his epic battle .  He is drug back into the fight for control over all of Creation. As he is fighting he sees that the aftershocks of his father's death is taking a toll on everything .
  In this new reboot, the authors aren't afraid to play with the big boys . They bring back some characters and plots that were all but lost in other episodes . The story has a lot of action and lots of characters to digest at the begining . As the book progresses you get caught up in all the action that is taken place . You will not put it down .
   The novel is a little dark but the art work is amazing . The story flows great and i must say i was sucked into the story line . i love DC and i am so happy that they are rebooting some series . So if you want a good series that has a great reboot check it out

HAPPY FRIDAY ALL

HAPPY ST PATRICK'S DAY and HAPPY BEAUTY AND THE BEAST DAY . Welcome to Friday all today I have a great book a retelling of sorts of a classic story . BEAUTY OF THE BEAST ( a fairytale retelling book 1) by Rachel L Demeter


                         BOOK BLURB




Experience the world’s most enchanting and timeless love story—retold with a dark and realistic twist.

A BEAST LIVING IN THE SHADOW OF HIS PAST

Reclusive and severely scarred Prince Adam Delacroix has remained hidden inside a secluded, decrepit castle ever since he witnessed his family’s brutal massacre. Cloaked in shadow, with only the lamentations of past ghosts for company, he has abandoned all hope, allowing the world to believe he died on that tragic eve twenty-five years ago.

A BEAUTY IN PURSUIT OF A BETTER FUTURE

Caught in a fierce snowstorm, beautiful and strong-willed Isabelle Rose seeks shelter at a castle—unaware that its beastly and disfigured master is much more than he appears to be. When he imprisons her gravely ill and blind father, she bravely offers herself in his place.

BEAUTY AND THE BEAST

Stripped of his emotional defenses, Adam’s humanity reawakens as he encounters a kindred soul in Isabelle. Together they will wade through darkness and discover beauty and passion in the most unlikely of places. But when a monster from Isabelle’s former life threatens their new love, Demrov’s forgotten prince must emerge from his shadows and face the world once more…

Perfect for fans of Beauty and the Beast and The Phantom of the Opera, Beauty of the Beast brings a familiar and well-loved fairy tale to life with a rich setting in the kingdom of Demrov and a captivating, Gothic voice.

* * *

Beauty of the Beast is the first standalone installment in a series of classic fairy tales reimagined with a dark and realistic twist.

Disclaimer: This is an edgy, historical romance retelling of the classic fairy tale. Due to strong sexual content, profanity, and dark subject matter, including an instance of sexual assault committed by the villain, Beauty of the Beast is not intended for readers under the age of 18.
                      
                        MY REVIEW
     This book blew me away . I have always love the story of Beauty and the Beast . But as i grew up the fairy tale became a little bit darker and a little bit edgier and a lot more twisted . The author transports us back to a time of princes and noblemen . Wonderful woman who are strong and yet vunerable at the same time . The story has the same lessons to be learned to love based on ones heart and not how they look . Th author dives deeper into the story and also takes us to a dark place .
    The characters are so intense and so well written . Isabelle is a tender woman who loves her father with all of her heart . She will do anything to keep her family safe . Even become engaged to an evil man who just wants to own her and torture her . She seems so weak and frail at the begining of the book and a total book worm . As you read you see that she is stronger and more feirce then she lets on . The moment she sets eyes on Prince Adam . Her life changes and she grows int o a woman who will do anything to protect her man . Prince Adam is such a tortured soul after surviving a fire that wiped out everything and everyone he loved . He has gone into hiding , hiding his wounds from the world . When he meets Isabelle . Things start to change for him . He reawakens the feelings that he has had hidden for a very long time . His heart starts to open up as Isabelle falls for him. He becomes the man that will save his beloved at any cost . He is the man that we all dream of . The man that will mover heaven and earth to bring his beloved back to him. The supporting cast is also very well written . They all add to the story in some way . Some we see as evil but the others have more to them and then bam it hits you they are evil and have been taken in .
    Another story that grew up . The author wove a magical tale which i couldn't put down . I got this book and started reading in one evening and finished it that night . The way the author weaves the tale is masterful . She actually transports us back to the time .  This isn't your childrens fairy tale . There is now Mrs Potts or chip , or magical candalabras dancing around . This story is darker and grittier with a twist . Their are some very dark parts in this book . There is a sexual assault in the book that might make you want to stop . But don't it adds to the story a lot . There is also strong sexual content and some swearing . This book isn't for the feint of heart. So if you want a grown up twisted fairy tale that will sweep you off your feet . Check out Beauty of the Beast by Rachel L Demeter
