THE SECOND TO LAST BOOK IN READER ROUND UP

   Good afternoon my peeps, it is coming to and end pretty quickly , I have the second to last book in this years fall round up.  SHADOWING THE PHOENIX by Angel Nyx

                           BOOK BLURB

When the Phoenix is flying, Shadow comes out to play

Ainsley Bishop

I wasn't always a street kid, but when my home life got too dangerous, I chose the streets. They were safer. A whiz with computers, I quickly found my own way into the world of hacking.

That's when they came. STARR. They'd heard about Phoenix and wanted her. But there were a few requirements. I had to leave my old life behind. Fine by me.

A decade later, I have no regrets. I've used my skills, and the ones STARR taught me, to help a lot of people.

When I come across a trafficking ring online, I make it my mission to shut it down. If only Shadow wouldn't get in my way.

Kason Manning

Known only as 5H4D0W online, the moniker fits. I watch and wait in the shadows for the right time to pounce. I'm what we in the hacker world call a Grayhat. My methods aren't always ethical, but they get the job done.

When I stumbled onto a trafficking ring on the dark web, I made the snap decision to infiltrate them and take them down from the inside.

That's when I met her. Known only as PH03N1X, her fiery spirit called to me. But she has secrets she won't share, ones I fear will burn the world down around me. But then, maybe that was what I needed—to rise from the ashes renewed.

                           MY REVIEW 

   Ainsley hasn't always had a great life from the beginning. Her home life became dangerous and living on the street was no better. Until the day she figured out that she was great with computers and hacking. Then STARR came into the picture and wanted her, the only thing that she had to do was leave her old life behind. Which she was willing to do.  Her unique talents help bring down drug rings and human trafficking ring around the world.  One day while hunting through the dark web she meets shadow another hacker and also another company that is bringing down  the traffickers . When they meet things start to spark up but will they be able to bring down the ring and make it out alive. 

  Ainsley and Kason are a hot couple . They both feel like they are outsiders and both have been in not so good relationships and past lives . Ainsley is a strong willed woman who has been through so much in her life . She doesn't want other young women and children to go through the same thing as she did. She is also sassy and free spirited. She has intrigued Kason in so many ways. Kason is an ex sniper who hasn't had the best child hood either and he is working hard to stop what happened to him happen to others . They both are working on the same side when it comes to stopping the enemy. The characters are very well written and you feel for them through out the story.

   This is one of those stories that has some great characters that are well written and complex. The author takes us on an adventure that has us going down a few dark areas of the web.  There is also a lot of romantic shenanigans that go on through out this book. I did wish the author would of dived more into the whole trafficking thing and them bringing them to an end and maybe just a little less of the bed room shenanigans that when on.  Over all I did enjoy this book and if you like suspense and romantic times this book will be great for fall reading list

WINDING DOWN OF READER ROUND UP

                           BOOK BLURB

I came back to Harlowe Parish with my sister's ashes and a stolen gun.

They called it suicide. I call it murder.

The autopsy I paid for doesn't lie: ligature marks, defensive wounds, and sedatives. Delilah was cleansed. Sanctified. Erased like dozens of girls before her.

I have six names. I'm crossing them all off.

Then I find Silas Cain standing over a body in the dark.

He was their monster once. Raised to kill for the family. Until he turned on them and painted the parish red. Now he's back, hunting in the shadows.

We strike a deal: his violence, my vengeance.

                         MY REVIEW

  There is something sinister going on in Harlowe Parish and Evie has come back with her sisters ashes and a vendetta to whoever did this to her . They called it an accident but she knows that it wasn't . Autopsy paper work doesn't lie. She has six names and each of them will be crossed off the list . When she meets Silas who was a monster at one time . He killed for family until the day he turned on them . Now he is back wants violence and Evie wants vengeance together they will survive. 

     Evie wants the truth on what was done to her sister . She is a whirlwind and is like a grim reaper doling out vengeance on those that took her sisters life and the lives of the women before her.  She is a dangerous woman hell bent on righting wrongs . She knows she might die but she is willing to get the truth out there. Silas is well he is a monster but what he is doing is righting the wrongs of his past. He is dark and kind of scary in so many ways. When they meet it is like a tornado coming down on you. Their relationship is dark, messy dangerous and so intense. Such well written characters and very complex 

  This is a Southern Gothic story of basically 2 lost souls looking for vengeance on those that wronged so many people. The author has a such a classic story telling style. The characters are well written and you know that they are evil. This is such a good story that will have you reading well into the night. Will be a good story for your halloween reading list

                          BOOK BLURB

Theodora Blackwood's gift for communing with the dead has left her disgraced and desperate. When an anonymous benefactor offers a fortune to conduct séances in the Scottish Highlands, she has no choice but to accept. Then she arrives at Dunmoray Castle and discovers her client is Callum Sinclair, the man she loved and lost five years ago.

The man who's been systematically destroying her life to force her back into his arms.

Now she's trapped in his ancestral fortress as All Hallows' Eve approaches, surrounded by whispers of curses and a dead wife's vengeful spirit. Callum claims he needs her abilities to contact the woman who died under mysterious circumstances. But as the séances grow violent and bodies begin to fall, Thea realizes something far more dangerous than obsession has awakened.

To survive the night when the veil between worlds grows thinnest, she must make an impossible choice: flee and face certain death, or bind herself to Callum through forbidden blood magic, a ritual that will chain their souls together forever.

He's manipulative, dangerous, and willing to burn the world down to keep her.

She should run.

But some obsessions are worth damnation itself.

                        MY REVIEW 

 Theadora is a physic who can communicate with the dead but it has left her penniless . Until the day a mysterious person invites her to do a seance in the Scottish highlands . A invitation she shouldn't refuse . When she arrives and finds out it the man she loved and lost five years ago. Now basically trapped in the castle Callum pleads his case that he needs help to fight his vengeful dead wife's ghost and figure out how she died all on Halloween. She knows she should run but he has a power over her that can't be denied.  Will they figure out the mystery and will their love finally be valid. 

   Theadora is one tough cookie, she ca communicate with the dead but there is something that has happened in her past that she has hidden . When push comes to shove she is the one that holds everything together and makes everything right . Callum is one of the characters that you don't really know if he is a bad guy or a good guy that will do what needs to be done to fix the problem. He is kind of arrogant and there are moments you want to slap him up the side of the face. But he will burn the world down for the one woman he loves . He is fiercely protective and a tad overbearing . These two are wonderful together and compliment each other very well. They are well written and complex .

   This is one of those books that when you start you really don't know where the author is going to take you . The story has quite a few twists and turns through out and you aren't real sure how it is going to end . I was up late into the night reading this book and it had all the feels spooky, romantic and on the edge of your seat excitement.  This would be a great book for your Halloween reading list . If you like dark gothic romance check it out . Theo and Callum will suit your needs .
