ONE WEEK AND A LITTLE BIT UNTIL CHRISTIMAS

  Sorry I have been not around for a bit , its been busy on the farm between reading and getting ready for Christmas its been awhile. Today I have for you book 4 in the Daughters of the Moon series THE LOVERS  by Hp Mallory, 

                        BOOK BLURB



 KATE

After I made the terrible decision to become a Daughter of the Moon, I didn’t think things could get much worse. But now they are worse. Way, way worse.

When Ezra Blackthorn’s Army of Shadows attacks, I get airlifted by what looks like a pterodactyl (and I’m pretty sure its claws feel comparable) and find myself imprisoned in a place called The Obsidian.   And The Obsidian is about as welcoming as the name might imply.  Soon I meet Ezra who also happens to be public enemy #1. While Ezra looks about as intimidating as a high school math teacher before his morning coffee, Ezra’s bite is lots worse than his bark.  At least I’m not alone here—in a place that looks like it was decorated by Hades.  Valerian is here too. And I’m still trying to figure out whose side he’s on—Ezra’s, ours or his own…
   Oh, yeah, and we’re both trying to escape, because I have a feeling we won’t like the plans Ezra has in store for us. If that weren’t enough to ruin a girl’s day, I’ve just been tasked with my next tarot mission—that of The Lovers. Right. While I’m in the middle of attempting to escape Mordor, my aunt Artemis wants me to learn some crap about love and relationships.  Between dodging Ezra, surviving the Obsidian, and tackling impossible tarot missions, my love life is the least of my problems… but knowing my luck, it’s probably the one that’ll get me killed.


                       MY REVIEW 
 Kate and the gang are back and trying to figure out who she can trust. When Ezra finally finds them Kate is taken to Obsidian where she is given the new tarot card of the lovers. Now while she is trying to figure what she is to learn from the card and what to do with Ezra and Valerian and what side he is actually on. Now will she figure out how to get out of the jail and the lesson that Aunt Artemis is trying to teach her at the same time . 

  Kate well she is really stuck between a rock and a hard place this time around. The evil is coming she isn't really ready. She does a lot of procrastinating and well just trying to figure out how to get out of being a daughter of the moon. When she is taken she just sits there and feels sorry for herself for a bit but then she does realizes its her that will get herself out of the problem that she has gotten herself into. Lessons are learned and alliances are formed. Valerian well you just don't know what to do about him you don't know if you can trust him or not. He is very good looking and has so many secrets . You want to love him but or hate him. We also get to meet Ezra an enemy of the daughters of the moon and he wants Kate. He is like a wolf in sheep's clothing . He can be charming and oh so smooth but deep down he is one scary man. Each character is well written and getting more and more complex with each story. I did wish that we got to see more Yolanda and Rocco in this episode cause they are my all time favorite characters. I mean a sassy talking goat and his shrunken head best friend who wouldn't want to read that. 

 This is the 4th book in the series and we get to dive a bit deeper into the characters. The story is a fun fast read that we get to see more about them. The author takes us on a fun filled ride. Loving the direction the author is taking the characters and the interactions between them all. I can't wait to see where they are going to end up. A great fun series to read over the Christmas season.

HAPPY RELEASE WEEK

  Good morning peeps . its release week for Lydia Michaels and her newest book in the Calamity Rayne series.  CALAMITY RAYNE KNOCKED UP  is book 5 in the series 


                          BOOK BLURB



 What do you get when a billionaire control freak and an awkward hot mess decide it’s time to make a baby? Pure chaos—and perhaps more than turkey in the oven this  Thanksgiving.

Rayne thought getting pregnant would be easy. But between Hale’s busy schedule and his affinity for kink (the kind that absolutely does not lead to procreation), their baby-making escapades have gone from a one-and-done bedding to a hilariously hot adventure in family planning. 

Hale is used to getting his way, but his patience is tested when their love nest turns into a pressure cooker, and success isn’t immediate. As things heat up, Calamity’s careful planning goes up in flames—literally! With several sides of stuffing and enough dirty talk to make Santa blush, this laugh-out-loud raunch-com will surely warm readers’ hearts this holiday!


                     MY REVIEW 

 Rayne and Hale are back and life has been amazing, well until the day they decide that they want to add to the family. In typical Rayne fashion things don't go as planned, with Hale busy and Rayne over thinking and freaking out things don't go as planned. Until that one day after a trip to a Reiki specialist things change and well Thanks giving is one for the books . 

 Rayne is back and making everyone laugh with her antics . She hasn't really calmed down since getting married. She still isn't comfortable in her own skin and still thinks that everyone is out to get her in some way. She is funny and kind of neurotic which does make you laugh so hard . Over all she has a heart of gold and loves with her whole heart to everyone that she comes in contact in. Hale well he is a control freak that is kind of grumpy most of the time . He loves Rayne with his whole heart and keeps her on an even keel . Together they are the perfect balance for each other . The rest of the family is back and funnier than ever. 

  This is one of those books that will have you laughing so hard the tears will be running down your face. The author really likes to put her characters through so much before getting their happily ever after . This is a fun rom - com with some nice spice . The characters are wonderful . Its like going home again. So if you want a fun series check out Calamity Rayne.

WELCOME TO THE LAST DAY OF READER ROUNDUP

   Good morning my peeps , we made it to the last day of reader round up. Today I have for you book 2 in the Magical Forces series by Hope Daniels and Alicia Dawn HELL ON THE HEART. 


                          BOOK BLURB



 Secrets.

Everyone has them.

Everyone keeps them for various reasons.
As a witch with power over water, Anna wants her secrets to stay in the past where they belong. All she desires is to enjoy the present, but what she thought was buried long ago, has found a nasty way of coming back to bite her.
So hold on tight. Not only is her big bad secret back, but it’s hungry and Anna looks like the perfect entree for dinner.

Pete has secrets of his own. As a Djinn, he is skilled and powerful enough to cajole Anna to tell him hers, although he knows he may have to confess up some of his own deep dark nightmares. When she learns his secrets will she still look at him the same way? Or will she take a chance on what could be? Not that it matters. Pete isn’t ready to let her go. She is his soul mate whether she is ready to admit it or not. He will make her realize they are meant to be together, even if he has to follow her to hell to do so.
    Will their secrets destroy what they could be before they have the chance to begin?
                        MY REVIEW 
 Secrets have a way of rearing their ugly heads at the most unwise time. Anna is a water witch and she has secrets that she really wants to stay hidden. But, there is one horrible secret that is coming back to haunt her. Pete a djinn has his own deep dark secret and is scared that if Anna found out , she might run or hopefully take a chance on. Together they are stronger to beat the darkness that is about to hit them head on. 

  The characters are so much fun to read. Pete is a djinn and a sweet and oh so alpha guy. He is also so much more. He is powerful and ready to battle whatever may come. Anna is sweet and headstrong  in some ways because of her past and has feeling of guilt because of it. We also get to meet Newt a cat shifter who is so hilarious but deadly. Tessa has to be my favorite character, she is a witch with an old soul and a wild sense of style. She is so funny especially when she is around Newt, They are a fun couple a great balance to the hotness of Pete and Anna. All these characters are so much fun to read and they are well written and complex.

  This is one of those books where you have secrets coming to light and history repeating itself .   The authors really take the characters through so many twists and turns through out the story.  There is mystery and romance and friends to lovers story with so much fun and action. This is a story that you can read in a weekend. I do suggest your read book one so you get a better understanding of the characters. So if you want a good read for your winter reading list.
