WE MADE IT TO FRIDAY

  Good morning peeps , now that the reader roundup is over its back to normal here on the blog . Today I have book 3 in the Chasing Demons series by J.R Rain and Hp Mallory . HEAVEN OF HELL . 

                          BOOK BLURB 

 Graham Kincaid, a fallen angel, is settling into life on Earth—he’s moved in with his girlfriend and he’s starting to get a feel for this being human thing.

Graham’s still working odd jobs as a pet detective and an undercover demon hunter, but when the emissary of Heaven lets it slip that the most dangerous of all demons, Legion, has escaped Hell, things are about to get personal.

Graham’s about to face his most important job yet.

Why? Because Legion threatens the very existence of Heaven, itself.

When Graham realizes who is at the center of Legion’s nefarious plan, he’ll have to face ugly truths about his own humanity he’d rather not…

                       MY REVIEW 

 Graham is settling in to his life and has moved in with his girlfriend and he is becoming a dad to her son and he is liking it.  He is still working odd jobs as a pet detective and a demon hunter . When he finds out from his contacts that the most lethal demon has escaped , Legion has come to earth and its about to get personnel . When Legion wants to wipe out Heaven and all the angels . Graham finds out he is the center of the plan for the take over . Now he has to face some ulgy truths about his life . 

  In the final book Graham is back and stronger then ever . He is still tortured but he is stronger in his resolve to make things good again. He is fighting for all of humanity and heaven . He has grown so much and honestly I like the way he is now he is finally coming to terms with everything that is going on . We get to meet Leila someone from Graham's past who is the cross hairs of Legion . We find out a lot history of Graham from her.  These characters are so well written and complex you will love them 

 This is the final book in the series and I think it is the best one of the trilogy. The authors have really created a great series . The characters are well written and so complex . The stories are intense and well written . This last book is no exception , we get to see a big battle in this one and we get to see some love happening . Like with any good book you will get sucked in by the end of chapter one . I couldn't put the book down cause I wanted to see how it would end but the other part of me I didn't want it to end . I truly love these authors style of writing and I can't wait to see what other stories these authors come up with in the future . So if you want a series that has angels , hordes of demons , and true love check it out .

WELCOME TO THE LAST DAY OF READER ROUNDUP

  Good morning my peeps today is the last day of Reader round up  and I have a new author and the second book in her Ancient  Passage series . AFRAID TO HOPE  by Sutton Bishop 

                          BOOK BLURB 

  Archaeologist and INTERPOL contractor Dr. Natasha Jordaan is on a dangerous mission to recover artifacts looted from Morocco—the home of her past and her heart. Trained, competent, and proven, the last thing she needs is a brash, infuriating babysitter, no matter how sexy he is.

Former Special Forces operator Bane Rua wants the starched-up professor in every way a man can have a woman, and he always gets what he wants. His duty might be to protect the beautiful doctor and recover the relics, but no one ever said he couldn’t have two assignments.

                       MY REVIEW

  Dr Natasha Jordaan is on a mission to recover stolen artifacts from Morocco, a place that is dear to her heart and her past . She knows what she is doing and is trained in what to do . She really doesn't need a baby sitter . Enter Special Forces operator Bane Rua , a sexy rogue who wants the professor in every way . He might have to keep her safe and recover the artifacts but who said he couldn't have the job and the beautiful Natasha . 

 Ok ok who loves a mystery adventure book with a sexy Indiana Jones type male character and the sexy art historian that fights as good as the Indiana Jones character . Well this book has it  enter Bane , man he is sexy and kind of cocky man who is sure of himself .He is ex special forces so we know that he is good at what he does . Natasha is a professor and kind of buttoned up , shy when it comes to being around Bane cause he loves to try and crawl under her skin any way he can . She knows her job and when push comes to shove she really  steps up and fights just as hard as Bane does .  They are wonderful characters that are well written and complex 

 This is one of those books that when you sit down you really don't know what to expect. The story is well written and man you are transported to Morocco and you can see what it looks like in modern and what it was like in the past . The author uses that as a backdrop for the main characters . This is one of those books that kind of took me a little bit to get into but after the third chapter things started to pick up and get rolling . Over all I truly enjoyed this book it was a great mixture of romance and mystery . Some of the romance can make you blush and the next moment you are on the edge of your seat . So if you want a romantic mystery check it out .

GOOD MORNING BOOK FIVE

  Good morning my peeps welcome to book five in the reader round up . Today's book is MAYHEM. MAGIC AND TACTICS  (Hunter Training book 2) by Kimberly Forrest 

                         BOOK BLURB

 Round two of Hunter Training is gearing up…

Melanie Harper never thought she’d get very far with Hunter Training. Her magical gift was minor at best, and she’d been coerced into attending, so if she was cut, no big deal. At least, that’s the way she’d felt until she met Logan Vance. The big, strapping, grizzly shifter is just what she wants, and she’ll do whatever it takes to claim him.

Logan Vance has no desire for a mate. His bear isn’t cute and cuddly. Like all Vance bears, he’s a dominant, belligerent monster. He’d never expose someone he loves to that kind of danger. Pair that with an unsavory incident with an aggressive woman in his past, and that put Melanie Harper firmly off-limits. Now, if he could just convince his bear of that…

As stage two of Hunter Training begins, a rogue vampire is wreaking havoc on the streets of New Orleans and Melanie fits this predator’s taste to a T. Will the Hunters be able to find this deadly menace before he finds her?

                     MY REVIEW 

 Melanie has been trying to get the attention of Logan Vance for as long as she saw him . As she is trying to get through Hunter training with her magic not working properly. So she has her eyes on Logan, the hunky grizzly bear who is grouchy . He thinks that she should be off limits but his bear thinks not. When they get together they are so sweet. They have to deal with a rogue vampire that is wreaking havoc in New Orleans and Melanie is the one that he has taken a liking too.  Will Logan and his bear save her before it is too late . 

 This the second book in the Hunter training series, and this is Melanie and Logan's book . I love these two so much . Melanie is such a sweet girl who is tougher then she realizes . She is not the most powerful witch but she is one feisty girl who loves with all her heart . Logan is a grumpy bear shifter who think that he isn't worth loving . They are so sweet together and I love them , they are so well written and complex and you will fall in love with them . The rest of the group is back and helping get each of them together . 

This is such a fun read , and I read it in an evening . I love this authors style of writing, she really puts her characters through a lot but in the end she brings them together . This story is just as action packed as the first story . I was really happy that Melanie and Logan got a story . for them . They are such a fun couple to read . The twists and turns will keep you on the edge of your seat and there are some sexy times that will have you grinning . You should read the first book to get to know them before you dive into this book . So if you want a fun read check it out

GOOD MONDAY MORNING ALL

  Good morning all , Happy Family day or President's day where ever you may be . Today I have book four from the reader round up. VENI VIDI VICIOUS  (A Viking Pride and Prejudice variation) by Elin Erickson 

                            BOOK BLURB 

  A unique story in the Austenesque catalogue—a Viking era variation of Pride and Prejudice. Set in the late 800s when King Alfred the Great ruled in Wessex and Harold Fairhair united tribal Norway into one kingdom.

Elizabeth’s courage had risen when faced with the fierce Viking, but what will she do when she finds herself as a stowaway on a Viking ship, heading for a major sea battle?

Fitzwilliam has been taught since infancy that men do not love, but can he withstand the temptation of giving his heart to the one woman whose eyes he cannot resist?

The Bennets have travelled to London to trade and visit their relations when Elizabeth’s brother, John, enters the house, battered and bruised, announcing they are expecting guests the next morning.

Elizabeth has no choice; she is forced to wed the savage Viking Fitzwilliam Darcyson to save her brother, to sail across the North Sea to a foreign country with pagan customs. Fortunately, her most beloved sister will travel with her as Jane has wed the amiable chieftain of Netherfield, in a double wedding with Elizabeth and the Jarl of Nidaros.

A ruthless time in history is brought to life through Elizabeth Bennet and Fitzwilliam Darcyson’s eyes as they get to know one another and adjust to each other’s customs through battles, hardships and bliss. Be warned, this is not for the faint of heart. This is an uncensored, unglorified medieval tale with all the gory details. Approximately 148 000 words.

                        MY REVIEW 

 When Elizabeth and her family travel to London to do some trading and see family. She doesn't realize her life is going to change forever . When her brother comes home beaten and saying there will be guests arriving in the morning . When morning comes so does Fitzwilliam Darcyson , a savage Viking who has eyes on Elizabeth. She is then forced to marry him and and head across the north sea to land that she knows nothing about . Will they be able to love each other through wars , hardships and some bliss . Will they be able to survive and find the love that both of them have for each other . 

 Ok this is one of those books that has so many characters in the pages . Elizabeth the heroine of the story what can we say about her . Man she is one strong woman , stronger then she even realized at the start . She has been put through so much being married to a Viking . She overcomes the hardships and becomes the head of the household and when push comes to shove she really becomes like the chieftain in her husbands absence . Fitzwilliam well he is a brutish man , tall, sexy and built . He isn't all bad he has a love for Elizabeth that has him going in circles because Viking men are told they can't love . He does become a big old softie and we really get to see them grow and become each others constant and watch them truly fall in love with each other . They are very well written and complex and the cast of characters that help them navigate their love lives, each of them rich and well written. 

 This is a retelling of Pride and Prejudice in a violent way . The story is rich with Viking history and lore . The characters are well written and you can't help but fall in love with each of them . The author takes on quite an adventure ride with twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat most of the time. There were times through out the book though I felt like the author over described scenes and places . I felt that in those parts it kind of drug a little and slowed down the pace . Over all I did enjoy this book and the characters . So if you want your vikings with a austen twist check it out .

GOOD SUNDAY WE ARE ON BOOK TWO

 Good Sunday all , today I am on book two of the reader roundup . I have the second novel in the reader round up , it is from an author I have enjoyed before . BLY  by Kelsey Ketch . 

                         BOOK BLURB 

   I left the United States to find inner peace. Instead, I find myself confronting a malicious ghost.

Astyr Salt is a spiritual and emotional empath who moved to England with the intent to forget about a traumatic, supernatural event that occurred during her freshman year of college. However, when she takes a spiritual cleansing assignment in a haunted country home in Essex, she is isolated with all her own pent-up emotions.

These emotions energize the ghosts inhabiting the country home, helping them draw their own tragedies to the surface. Searching for the truth, Astyr is forced to relive the past. And the deeper she dives into the country home’s horrific history, the more the intertwined memories place her in the path of an evil and demented predator.

                   MY REVIEW

 Astyr is an spiritual empath who has moved to England to start anew and forget her traumatic event that happened to her in her freshman year in college. But when she takes on a cleansing assignment at a country estate. She is isolated and fighting her own emotions . He personal emotions help to energize the ghosts and in doing so she helps each ghost bring up their own tragedies . In trying to help them she must dive into the past to help the ghosts and fight the evil that is haunting all of them .

 This story is packed full of great characters . Astyr is a very strong woman who has been through a lot and is trying to put her life back together. She is feisty and sweet but being an empath also has her kind of fearful of things. Nolyn is her best friend and also a romantic interest to her. He is a sweet guy . You also get to meet some cool  characters . There is one that you really don't know if she is an actual person or a ghost . The characters are so well written and complex . You will love them. 

 This is a well written story that weaves a really good ghost story with a bit of Egyptian gods . The author weaves a good story with a lot of twists and turns . You are sucked into the story by the end of the second chapter . I couldn't put the book down  I read well into the night . There were moment through out the book where I thought to myself that is she going to get out of this alive . I really enjoy this authors style of writing and her story telling . So if you want a good book to curl up with check it out .

BOOK TWO FOR READER ROUND UP

  Good Saturday morning peeps , I have for you book two for the reader roundup . Today's book is from an author that I have read quite a few books from  THE SUMMER THE WORLD ENDED  by Matthew S Cox.

                           BOOK BLURB

 Riley McCullough thought her best friend getting ‘dragged’ off to Puerto Vallarta for the first two weeks of summer vacation was the end of the world―at least until the bombs fell.

Life in suburban New Jersey with her mother is comfortable, not to mention boring, to an introverted fourteen-year-old. As if her friend’s surprise trip didn’t suck enough, her ‘best summer ever’ falls to pieces when she’s sent across the country to stay with a father she hasn’t seen in six years.

Adjusting to a tiny, desert town where everyone stares at her like she doesn’t belong proves difficult, and leaves her feeling more isolated than ever. To make matters worse, her secretive father won’t tell the truth about why he left—or what he’s hiding.

Her luck takes a turn for the better when she meets a boy who shares her interest in video games and contempt for small town boredom. Alas, her happiness is short lived.

To escape nuclear Armageddon, she shelters with her dad in a bunker he’d spent years preparing. After fourteen days without sun, Riley must overcome the sorrow of losing everything to save the family she still has.

                       MY REVIEW 

 Ryley is your typical fourteen year old girl , wanting the best summer of her life before heading off to high school . She wants to play video games with her best friend Amber and have the time of her life  Well that is short lived when her best friend is whisked away to Mexico for two weeks , she thought she would be die . Well then her life gets totally turned upside down when her mom passes away and her father shows up to take her home with him. A father she hasn't known for ever , what could happen right . Well in a desert town isn't all that it is cracked up to be, feeling isolated and lonely she tries to adapt but when her dad falls off the deep end and thinks the world is being destroyed. They end up spending two weeks in the fall out shelter while the world was going on around them . Will Ryley find out the truth about what is going on in time to save her dad and get back to life with friends . 

 Ryley is your typical fourteen year old and she wants to grow up but also wants to stay a kid . After her mom dies she does do a lot of growing but first she really does some moping around at the beginning . She is a strong , tough girl who just wants to belong somewhere . There is such a big cast of characters that help Ryley out along the way . Keiren her friend and boyfriend who is a local boy , he is sweet and humble . They are really sweet together . Her father well he seems like he has everything together but we soon find out that he doesn't and he is a little on the loony side . Each character is well written and complex . 

 Ok I am going to admit something here when I started reading this book I was kind of confused. This isn't like the rest of the books that this author writes . I was thinkin that this was a teenage angsty book . Which in a way its was in a way but then the twist about half way through had me going oh wow this is sounding more like the author . Oh don't get me wrong I was hooked by the end of chapter 2 and loved the journey the characters took but it was kind of a departure from the authors other stories .  So if you want a good story that has some great characters and some good twists check it out

GOOD FRIDAY ALL

 Good Friday all , I got my first novel from reader round up and man it is a good one .FROGETTING JANE by CJ Warrant. 

                            BOOK BLURB

 Amnesia and an unspeakable crime have stolen everything from Jane Doe, but the haunting image of a girl in a yellow dress keeps repeating in her head. Is it a memory of her past or is she going insane?

Small town chief of police, Elias McAvoy is haunted as well by the crushing guilt he feels over the deaths of two women, one by his own hand. Even if Elias has to battle his own demons, nothing is going to stop him from protecting Jane.

Delving deeper into Jane’s case, Elias uncovers a tangled web of lies and old murders that span forty years. As the mystery of the girl in yellow unfolds, so does Elias and Jane’s love deepens. Hell-bent on cleaning loose ends, the killer emerges and takes Jane to finish what he started. Racing against time, Elias has to save Jane from the sadistic killer or lose the woman he loves forever.

                        MY REVIEW

  Jane has had everything stripped from her , she survived a serial killer and can't remember what happened . To top it off she is also being haunted by a little girl in a yellow dress. Elias MacAvoy the chief of police is promising to keep her safe but he is fighting his own demons from a past that has him vowing to protect Jane at any cost . Will they survive the serial killer and will they be able to heal from a past that haunted them . 

 The characters in this story are very well written . Jane has been through so much she is strong stronger then she realizes . She is also a survivor who will do anything to help find the man who is killing women. Elias well he is a good guy but he is fighting demons of his past . He is trying to redeem himself for a past .  He has a heart of gold and watching him with Jane it is like this is where he is going to redeem himself and maybe put the past behind him,. Magda is my favourite character . She is the feisty grandmother figure who fusses over everyone like a mother hen . But don't you dare cross her cause she will put you in your place fast and hard. These are wonderful characters that are complex and well written . 

 I haven't read a good romantic thriller in a long time and when I saw this one I grabbed it . I really like the writing style of this author who is new to me by the way. The characters are well written and you want to hug them and tell them everything will be ok. The romantic part of this book doesn't overpower the whole story moves fast and you will be on the edge of your seat most of the time . I truly enjoyed this story and the characters . This is one of those stories that will have you up all night reading . So check it out if you want a good read that will have you reading all night.

GOOD MORNING PEEPS

  Still waiting for the novel change over on reader round up so I have been catching up on my other reads . So today I have book fourteen in the Haven Hollows series .  ART DECO APPARATIONS  by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain . 

                          BOOK BLURB

 Things have been going decently lately—my new business, Hallowed Homes, is growing and my relationship with my brother, Angelo, has never been better.

My love life is still a mess, but what else is new, right?

And, yes, I still have a massive crush on Marty Zach, even if there are rumors he’s now dating my friend, Poppy.

Crappy love life aside, everything is about to go to hell in a handbasket when an exotic woman named Rhea walks into my office on a cold February day.

Apparently I’m the only one who can see her.

And as if that wasn’t mystifying enough, she won’t stop crying about getting access to one of my listings—an Art Deco house that isn’t currently on the market.

Wanting to help Rhea and hoping she’ll stop appearing to me, I start looking into the Mathison House and its owner, Tobias.

Pretty soon I’m involved in a double-murder mystery that not only threatens my sanity but my relationship with my best friend, Roy—a relationship that’s suddenly become pretty darn hot…

                     MY REVIEW 

 Life in Haven Hallow is going great , Fifi is doing great with her new job as owner of HALLOWED HOMES and she is actually getting along with her brother . Things were pretty peaceful until the day that a mystery woman shows up at the reality office and only Fifi can see her. She is crying about an art deco house that she needs to get access to . Well it isn't on the market yet so Fifi starts to look into the Mathison house and the current owner Tobais. Where things just don't seem to be right, so now she has a mystery to solve and she also has to figure out what is going on with her best friend and the man she is crushing on . There is so much going on what will a girl / succubus do . 

  The gang from Haven Hallow are back and funnier then ever. In this book we get to dive deeper into Fifi's heart and her head . She is strong but there are some moments we see her struggling with what is going on . She feels like she is loosing her mind with everything that is going on . She is trying to figure everything out and figuring out who she is at the same time. We get to see Roy and Marty and the gang also , all trying to help Fifi out . Roy well is as sexy as ever and Marty is still the sweet guy that everyone wants as their best friend. Everyone is there to help Tobias and his haunting . Tobias is a sweet guy who is having a hard time of it because of what is happening in his house . i truly love these characters and love how they are growing and becoming more complex with each book . 

 This is the fourteenth book in the series and I am loving it .This book has ghost , succubus , a possession and a house no one can enter .So what is a girl to do . The stories are so much fun to read and the characters are well crafted and complex . The authors have really crafted a great landscape with the stories . I read this book in an evening and laughed my way all the way through . i would suggest that you read the other books in the series before you start this one . So if you want a great series to read check them out and enjoy ,

GOOD MORNING

   Good morning my peeps , I am taking a two day break from reader roundup waiting for the novel week starts . So today I have a sweet book for you by Jodi Allen Brice PROMISE OF HOPE ( Harland Creek series book 6)

                          BOOK BLURB

Police officer, Mitch Wood has always loved the one girl he could never have. Allison Jackson. If his best friend Sloan caught wind that he was in love with his little sister, Mitch would be picking his teeth up off the floor and their friendship would be over.

                      MY REVIEW

   Allison is trying to get her interior design business off the ground . She is also  trying to hide a secret that she doesn't want to get out . But when she looses her one design job she is devastated until her brothers best friend Mitch comes into the picture, a police officer and owner of a house that needs to be fixed up. There is more between these two then meets the eyes . When she decides to help him with his house remodel . Sparks start to fly after long hours working together . Mitch is ready to tell Allison how he feels . Will they admit to each other how they feel and will Allison get the back bone to stand up to everyone and come out of being Sloane's little sister . 

 Omg I love these characters so much . Allison has always been a people pleaser she really can't say no to anyone . There is more to Allison then meets the eye though. She is one tough cookie when push comes to shove she will stand up for what she wants and stands up for the people in her life . She is one feisty woman who grows up through the book . Mitch oh my goodness he is such a good guy , he is sexy and smart and totally in love with the boss's sister, They are both such fun characters and it is sweet how they fall in love with each other . Sloane , Grace and Tabitha are also back and funnier then ever . These characters are so much fun to read . 

 This is a sweet story of love and redemption, the characters are so well written and with each book they become more and more complex. The author has a way of building a great story with great characters and honestly its like the town is actually a character in the book . I also love how this is a sweet story and you can really feel the love come off the page with out a lot of sex  scenes . I can't wait to read the next book in the series . So if you want a sweet story that will give you all the feels check it out .

LAST BOOK FOR THE NOVELLAS OF READER ROUND UP

   Good afternoon all I am back and it is day 7 of reader round up . This is the last book of the novella part of the round up and we end it with mermaids .  THE SEA MAGE ( The NightShade Guild book 10) by Louisa Bacio, 

                          BOOK BLURB

 Serena Moon treats life like a beach goer taking in the ocean’s tide. It’s all serene until you turn your back for a second, and an errant waves knocks you on your ass.

Know when you’re in over you head

When she’s entrusted with the safekeeping of the child elven queen, she enlists the help of mysterious — complete understatement— Peder, leader of the shifter sea dragons. Serena’s not sure what’s happening off the coast of SoCal but he’s got his own tricks.

It’s gotta be safe

It’ll take more than magic and mastery of the sea to take on the evil darkness determined to capture the world’s salvation. Serena and Peder must conquer unknown enemies and the complexity of love everlasting to save their hearts.

                  MY REVIEW 

  Serena  is more then your California beach girl . She is a mermaid that loves the water but lives on land. Things are going pretty good until the day she is entrusted with the protection of an elven princess who is a toddler .  Things start to get hairy when zombie pirates start to chase her and the toddler . She entrusts the help of her best friend and and leader of the sea dragons , and no they aren't a motorcycle gang . Will they be enough to protect this precious little one and keep the darkness at bay and save the world . They must conquer the enemy and keep themselves safe . 

 This mermaid book has some really good characters living inside the pages . Serena is a mermaid and a mage . She is strong and sexy and oh so funny . She is one of those people that you would instantly like if you met her . She can be your friend or your foe . When push comes to shove she will do anything to protect those that she cares about . Peder is well he is such a cool guy . He is sweet and sexy and there are things that he is hiding like he is the  king of the Sea dragons . They are destined to be together but they have so much to do before they can even try to be together. They are very intense characters with complex back grounds . 

 This is a novella that you can sit down and read in an evening . The author really paints a picture with her story. This is the first book I have read from this author and I was liking her writing style.  The characters are well written and complex and the story moves at a fast pace . I did feel a little confused at the beginning about what was going on but I think if I read the other books I would have a better idea . Over all I did enjoy the story and once I got into it it flowed fast . So if you want a fun book with lots of twists and turns check it out.

  She’s too old for stripping and too young for assisted living...

Raquel Bowman’s life is perfect. Her house is perfect. Her kids are perfect. Even her dog is perfect.

Perfect, perfect, perfect… until life falls apart thanks to her deceitful, insecure, gaslighting husband.

With the help of every self-help book on the market, she makes a fresh start with a new degree, a new job, and a new partner— and she can’t believe it’s happening again. Her perfect life is falling apart for the second time.

She doesn’t have the energy to start over again.

With two kids in college and one starting his own life, she’ll take any lifeline to save herself from ruin. But what’s an unemployed lawyer to do with no money, no motivation, and no means? So, when an old client leaves her a dilapidated bar in a town she’s never heard of, there’s only one thing to do. Too bad she doesn’t know anything about mixing drinks or running a bar.

Thankfully, her strange customers will teach her all she needs to know and then some. If only she could figure out why they only come out at night.

Raquel’s about to learn that when life gives you limes, it’s margarita time.

                     MY REVIEW 

    Raquel is starting over after a divorce and a failed relationship she is wallowing in her own pity . Until her best friend Candi helps her clean up her desk where she finds a letter changing her future . With her father in law in tow off to a place she never heard of and a dilapidated bar . What she doesn't know is that her life is about to change for the better .

  This is one of those books that will have you laughing all night long. Raquel is one of those characters that you will love . She is feisty but she has been hurt by two people in her past. She needs a change and boy does she get a change . She really gets the change she wants . I really like how she grows into her own as she fights for what is her.  We also get to meet Lucille and Shaw two of the many characters that we get to meet .Lucille is well she is an enigma, she is well a supernatural she is one of the originals . Shaw is tall sexy and oh so deadly , he is a vampire butcher . There are so many cool characters that come visit the bar . They are all so well written. 

 This book is a fun read , you get to meet some fun quirky characters that will have you laughing through out the whole book.  The author takes us on a fun filled ride , there are some great twists and turns that had me turning the pages . I really like quirky stories like this where the characters are over a certain age and have a maturity to them . Yes it is time for books like that, where you can identify with the main character more cause she is the same age as you .   The only thing that I had trouble with was the grammatical errors through out the book . I think if it went through one more edit it would of been perfect . Over all I really love this book , so check it out .

BACK AGAIN WITH ANOTHER EDITION

  Good afternoon peeps yes I am back with another book for day 6 . This is a fun read for your reading . It is for those of us at a certain age with super powers of our own . THE GOOD WILL TOUR ( Menopausal super heroes ) by Samantha Bryant 

                          BOOK BLURB 

 Hero life is not all fistfights and mad scientists. Even superheroes need good press, especially when the world hasn't decided whether superpowers are a blessing or...something else.

Flygirl and Fuerte's next stop on the Unusual Cases Unit's Good Will Tour is Springfield Women's Hospital, a place close to Flygirl's heart and a place redefined for Fuerte by his change. Autographs and gladhanding ought to be a cakewalk.

But when Evelyn Mueller arrives, the PR tour gets quite a shake up. Pushed to the limit by her wife’s cancer diagnosis and denial of experimental treatment, Evelyn shoves back. Will Evelyn find the hero she needs, even if it's not the one she expected?

                      MY REVIEW 

 Hero life is not all saving the damsels and mad scientists . There are times where you have to go out and press the flesh. So it is on the press tour they go . But things aren't as rosy as one seems with people not really understanding what is going on with the people with superpowers  and the super heroes really don't even what they are doing most of the time . Flygirl is off on this press tour with Fuertes coming  along . This has a special place in Fly girls heart . But when  the PR tour gets shaken up by someone who is pushed to the limit by her wife's cancer diagnosis and denial of an experimental treatment . Evelyn shoves back and will she find the hero to help her even if it isn't who she thought it would be . 

The woman in this book are all heroes in their own way . Each of them has the power within them to help themselves out of all situations . Another great reason why I love these characters is that they are all middle aged woman . They know how to handle the problems of life and be able to push back and do it themselves . The two main characters are both sympathetic and tough . Fuertes is a complicated character when she got her powers she was turned into a man but still identifies as woman a strong kick butt woman to be precise.  Fly girl is just as strong and caring . They are such fun characters to hang out with . 

 This novella is one of those books that starts off a little bit slow but does pick up about 3 or 4 chapters into the book you really start to get to know the characters it really starts to flow . i think if i would of read the book Change of Life it would of helped out a lot . I must say though I really enjoyed this book and really loved how the author has written mature characters and not young ones . If you want a fun read with some fun characters check it out
