GOOD MONDAY MORNING ALL

  Good morning my peeps , I hope your Easter weekend went well and the Easter bunny was good to you . Its been busy here on the farm, but I did get the 43 book in the Haven  Hollow series read NIGHTMARES AND NUMEROLOGY  by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain . 

                              BOOK BLURB

 When love burns this hot, even demons fear the flames...

I thought getting through my ongoing messy divorce was hard enough.

Then, a magical accident left me sharing my body with Indigo—a witch with a dark past and even darker enemies.

Since then, my life has been anything but ordinary.

I’m currently living in Haven Hollow, running an occult bookshop, dodging my petty ex-husband, and trying desperately not to fall for Angelo, the devastatingly handsome incubus who’s become my unlikely protector.

But soon, I find myself caught in a dangerous game of magical cat-and-mouse with a shadowy entity.

With my soon-to-be ex-husband unwittingly caught in the crossfire, I have to master my newfound abilities, and I hope I can come out of this alive.

Because in Haven Hollow, the line between nightmares and reality is razor-thin, and some flames burn hot enough to consume even the darkest souls.

                      MY REVIEW 

 Lydia is not having the best week , she was hours away from finally getting the divorce from her creepy ex. When lo and behold he doesn't show up at the hearing and then to make matters worse she finds out he is dating a super model . Also Angelo the sexy incubus that is her sworn protector is making things hotter for Lydia . When he gets attacked and a creepy entity is now after Lydia and her partner Indigo who happens to live in Lydia's body . Then there is the new feeling for Angelo. What's a girl going to do? 

  Ok these two are my all time favorite couple . Lydia is the sweet book store owner who has been through so much. She is as sweet as apple pie but she does have a dark side which is Indigo and also some hidden powers that she didn't even know she had . When she is pushed look out things could get really hot.  She could be deadly. Angelo well he is tall dark and oh so handsome. and is finding out that he is actually falling for Lydia.  These two are so good together. She calms him down and he pushes her to fight for what is right. The gang is back and helping Lydia and Angelo figure out what is going on and who attacked Angelo. With Lydia's ex husband and the new woman in his life who is basically sucking the life out of him.  I will say that the characters in this series are just getting better and more complex with each and every book that comes out. Angelo and Lydia are my favorite characters and I love reading them. 

   Reading this series is like coming home to friends and family. This author duo is my go to when I am in a reading slump. I know that i am going to laugh and sigh when reading these stories. They can really write good characters and the stories are always fun to read . This is a fun series with great characters with off shoots to other parts . So if you want a good series check it out .

ITS HUMP DAY TIME TO HEAD BACK TO THE HOLLOW

   Good afternoon peeps, I hope your Wednesday is going well . Today I have for you book 42 in the Haven Hollow series. ROYAL RANSOM by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain. 

                          BOOK BLURB 

   Reign of Winter

When I became Chief of Police in Haven Hollow, I thought my biggest challenge would be keeping the supernatural residents in line while raising my two adopted sons.

I was wrong.

My ex-fiancé, Fox Aspen, was kidnapped by the would-be queen of Winter, and his life is hanging on the line.

Not only that, my brother’s soul, which was trapped in his class ring, has been stolen by Wren, Janara’s right-hand-woman.

And if that weren’t enough to make me want to tear my hair out, my husband—yes, I have one of those, too—has disappeared after being possessed by a vampire deity.

Now my worst enemy, the usurper Queen Janara, has sent me a severed finger along with a chilling ultimatum: surrender, or everyone I love dies.

Becoming the queen I was born to be means sacrificing the life I’ve worked so hard to build. But staying human means abandoning those who need me most…

With refugees from Misty Hollow flooding my town, a murderous fairy queen hunting me down, and family I never knew I had thrown into the mix, I’m facing impossible choices at every turn.

I never wanted a crown, that’s true.

But I’ll be damned if I let Janara keep it.

                         MY REVIEW 

 Taliyah is having the roughest week between trying to Maverick and getting the new refuges situated in the haven. The ring that has her brother's soul in it was stolen and her ex fiance was kidnapped by Janera the winter queen who wants Taliyah dead. On top of it all she has to figure out where the people are going to stay from Misty hollow. Now she is on the hunt in the winter realm with her father her fairy father and she found out so much more . Will she be able to find Fox and Maverick and fight Janera for the crown . 

  This book is the ultimate ending for Taliyah and Janera. Taliyah is stressed to the max so much has been going on in Haven hollow . She is about to have a melt down in not a good way. When she finds out that Fox has been kidnapped and tortured . She makes the decision and claim a birth right and fight for the winter realm. She will do what she has to do to save Fox and with the help of Maverick and Basil. She will try her darndest to figure it all out.  Poor Maverick well that poor man has been through it all being tortured  frozen and going into near death isolation . You really feel for him and just wish he would be ok and admit he loves a certain police chief. We meet some new characters that will make you laugh .  Each character is well written and complex and we really get to see their personalities shine through. 

 This is a fun afternoon read , you know that hi jinx will be happening through each and ever book. The characters are like old friends that you can't wait to visit each time you open the book.  These books are my go to books for when you want a fun fast read . I can't wait to see how the residents of Misty Hollow fit into the lives of the people of Haven hollow. So if you want a fun series with lots of different streams that meld perfectly into the series .

                            BOOK BLURB

 Morgan Faulkner is a young historian used to living life through the pages of old books and the stories her father has told her. Her specialty, as was her father’s, is early British centuries, the times and legends of the Arthurian sagas.

Following in her father’s footsteps, Morgan has vowed to find the missing link in the Arthurian sagas that her father had always sought, which makes her ripe for the seemingly spontaneous meeting with John MacQuarrie, an attractive tour guide who could possibly soften the intense loneliness she feels. . . if she’d let him.

But she hears whispers on the wind as she stands on the cliffs. . . Or does she?  

Those whispers compel her to dig deep inside herself for ways to get on with the research.

Or maybe those whispers hint of something else? Something to come?

               

                       MY REVIEW 

 Morgan is living out her father's dream of heading to England and continuing his research on King Arthur.  When a chance meeting with John MacQuarrie at Tintagel send Morgan on a trip to the past that she might not come back from. She has been hearing voices on the wind , which compels her to dive deeper into the past and her research . But, those whispers are also hinting of what is coming and what has happened  Will the whispers of the past take Morgan away or will the man who truly cares for her keep her grounded in the present. 

   This is a book that has such strong characters . Morgan and John are two of those characters . Morgan is honestly having a hard time she is grieving her father and wants to finish his research on King Arthur. She is a strong woman with conviction to her past and the past she wants to study. But there were moments where she is naive of the things that are going on around her. She is torn between two worlds and is basically fighting for her very life. John is a mystery, he is the strong silent type of man. He is drawn to Morgan in a way that is strange for both of them. He feels like he knows Morgan from a past and is drawn to her in so many ways. We also get to meet Irwin and Lewis, Irwin has a secret that he is keeping and he is like everyone's father. He does take a shining to Morgan and treats her like a daughter . Wanting to take care of her . Lewis is a paranormal scientist that is interested in ley lines and how the power in the ley lines and now Morgan. Each character is very well written and complex . You will really get to know them and want to protect them as they fight the ghosts and get some answers from the past. 

   This is one of those books that when you sit down to read the first chapter you are hooked. The author paints such a brilliant picture of places that are parts of history . I loved reading about Stone hedge and Tintagel and what the past happened in those areas . She writes a great story weaving fiction in with the historical places and events . This is one those books that will transport you to another place and time with such ease.  I truly enjoyed this story very much . This would make a great book for your summer reading list. Check it out I know you will not be disappointed . 

I AM BACK

  Good morning peeps , I am back after resting my brain after reader round up. Today I have for you book 2 in the Bewitching Books series NARRATIVE NIGHTMARES by Hp Mallory

                         BOOK BLURB 

 When you're caught between a brooding literary anti-hero and the most famous of the Romantic poets with centuries of seduction experience, trusting your heart becomes a supernatural nightmare...

I thought running my bookstore, Bewitched Books, was complicated enough.  Between managing a bookstore with a magical shelf that brings literary characters to life and dealing with all the people who are after said magic, my hands were already full. 

Then he walked in—Lord Byron himself, a man who’s beyond seductive, but I’m pretty sure he has a dark agenda and a smile that makes my heart forget to beat.

As if that weren't enough, blood-drained victims are turning up all over Laurel Falls with no memory of what happened to them.

I'd turn to Heath, my protective (and admittedly hot) business partner—yes, the Heathcliff from Wuthering Heights—but his jealousy is reaching dangerous levels.

Not to mention Rox is falling hard for Byron's exotic companion, making objective decisions nearly impossible.

Now I'm caught in a supernatural game spanning centuries, with Egyptian mythology, enchanted books, and danger swirling around me.

And the worst part? I can't tell if my attraction to Byron is real or if I'm just another pawn in his schemes.

One thing's certain—some books are never meant to be opened, and some desires are never meant to be quenched.

But telling the difference between safe and sorry might cost me everything. 

                     MY REVIEW 

   El and Rox are back and working hard at Bewitching Books and boy things have heated up . Between running the store and managing the magical book shelf that brings literary characters to life El has her hands full someone is going around attacking people and drinking blood from them . In walks Lord Byron and his companion . Oh and don't forget Dill, Edgar and a mystery man after the books in Eliot's magic shelf. Things are just getting weirder and weirder. She can't talk to Heath about it well cause his jealousy is showing . So El and Rox are going to figure out what is going on and trying to stay safe while doing it . 

    El and Rox are really trying to figure out this magic shelf thing . El is well not having the best time of her life . She is trying real hard to keep everything kosher. When she feels like she had it all together but boom something magical happens to throw everything in chaos. She is strong but the one person she can talk to is well being a big baby. She tries hard but sometimes things just don't go as planned. Rox is her best friend and has a deep understanding of Egypt and its mythology. She is a no nonsense kind of woman who is so sweet and under estimated person out there, She watches every thing and figures out what is happening before anyone else does .  Now Heath well he showed up but then ran away . He really annoyed me in this book. He well acted like a jealous child and ran away . I will say that each character becomes more and more complex and are well written . Which lets us like them more and more. 

    This is a fun book to read , the author has entwined a good vampire story with book characters of literary classics .  There are so many secrets and lies that come to lie in the book which they try and figure out with comic outcomes sometimes . I am loving this series , it is very character driven and the characters are well written and you will love them. They will make you laugh so hard and then other times you want to just slap them upside the head and shake them and tell them to get it together . So if you want a fun magical series check it out .
