WINDING DOWN OF READER ROUND UP

  Good afternoon peeps  we are winding down this falls reader round up. This is the second to last book for you BLOOD HYMN  by Beth Hale

                           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

GOOD MORNING ANOTHER DAY OF READER ROUND UP

   Did you all miss me yesterday, I was out on the road with hubby doing ranch things . But, I am back with another author and her gothic dark romance . BLOOD AND VEIL by Sophia Poe. 

                          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 .

WELCOME TO TUESDAY

  Good afternoon peeps, another day of reader round up and today I have for you a new author for me . Book one in the Invictus Securities , UNFOUNDED by Angela Rush. 

                          BOOK BLURB

 Marley

I'm a simple girl who's had a hard life. Mom raised me to be independent, to not depend on a man for anything. However, things have been happening that I'm no longer able to handle on my own. I feel like I'm drowning. I don't see a way out. Then when I'm at my lowest. He appears offering to save me. The man I've been daydreaming about for the last year. Can I trust him not only with my safety, but with my heart?

Luke

I'm infatuated with an adorable waitress. I've never had an issue asking women out before, but she is different. Marley sees me for who I am, a successful businessman with a sharp mind, even though I lost the ability to walk.

When I find her sobbing and alone, the need to protect her overwhelms me. Once she lets me in on her frightening situation my fate is sealed.

Marley is mine and no one will harm her again.

As my security company begins to dig into the mysterious events, I uncover a conspiracy that is a matter of national security. I'll do whatever I can to keep Marley safe, while hopefully preventing a terrorist attack on our country. While chaos is all around us, I will show her that her fears about falling in love are unfounded.

                       MY REVIEW 

Luke is the head of Invictus securities and one day when his brothers and him head out to lunch he watches the woman he is infatuated with working hard . He has it bad for her because she sees him for who he is and not the man in the wheelchair. When he found her crying one day she needs protecting and he is the one that will protect her. Things go darked than just her loosing her job.  They find out that what is happening is a terrorist attack that will cause chaos for everyone. Will they be able to keep Marley safe and along with saving the love they share. 

   Luke and Marley are such an interesting couple. Luke is a self made man that even though he is in a wheel chair has a air about him that is all about don't mess with me. Underneath the tough exterior he is a sweet guy who just wants to have a love that understands him and wants to be with him for him. 

   Marley is a fun loving woman who loves life and wants to fall in love with a sweet man. She does have a issue with trying to do things for herself. Her stubborn streak is a mile wide and she hates to ask for help at any time. She does get on your nerves a little bit through out the book. Over all she does redeem herself towards the end . 

  Each of these characters are well written but I think the author could of made them more complex as the story went on. We also get to meet the brothers and sister . Each character was written well. 

 This is one of those books that you can read in a day. There is a story within a story and you will have a good time with it. I do believe this is a really good story with insta love theme but i did drag a little through out the book. Over all I did enjoy this book and i think you would also. So check it out for your fall and winter reading list

GOOD MONDAY ALL

  Good Monday my peeps , I have lost count on what book I am on for reader round up. Today I have for you book seven in the Magical Forces book HELL OF A NEW BEGINNING by Hope Daniels and Alicia Dawn 

                           BOOK BLURB

The call to war has rung.Battle looms and blood will spill.

Hungry for justice, Zoey is on the hunt for Colleen. But she isn't the only one with a vendetta. Disdain runs deep and deadly as the two sides of a mighty faction prepare for their final stand-off.

The time has come. Who will rise and who will fall in this long-awaited reckoning?

                      MY REVIEW 

  The call has been called and the battle is starting. The blood will be spilt but who's blood will 

it be. Zoey is hunting for someone and she isn't the only one. Colleen is on the run but if the 

fractions come to war disdain is high and blood is about to spill. Who will rise and who will 

fall and how much blood will be spilled 

    There are so many characters in this book, all the couples from the other books in the series

and they are ready to fight . Each set of characters come together to fight for what is right.

 Zoey is tough but also sweet and she wants to get the job done. Colleen is well you can't 

really trust her. She wants to take it all . They fight like there is no tomorrow and only one will

survive, These characters are very well written and complex . I love that the authors brought 

all the characters back for one epic battle of good and evil. 

   This is a story that would be good if you knew all the players that are in the books . The 

authors really built a great world of good and evil. I truly enjoyed this story but there were

moments where it felt like it kind of slowed down . This is a good series to read in your fall 

and winter list check it out

moments where it just kind of slowed down a little .
