WOW IT IS THE END OF FEBRUARY

  Good Monday morning all, I hope you all had a great weekend and found some good books to read. Today I have for you JENELYN'S JOURNEY by E.E Byrnes. 

                              BOOK BLURB

 An emotional coming-of-age story full of travel and mystery!

Jenelyn's family has followed a strange tradition for the past five generations called the Journey. Listening to the ethereal Spirits they believe will guide them, they travel away from home at eighteen to find the place they truly belong.

Now, it's Jenelyn's turn to leave her home in Los Angeles and travels to Germany, where she hopes to hear from the Spirits to guide her, not knowing how long this quest will be or where it will take her.

Luckily she has help; two of her parent's friends, Gretchen and Laszlo, have offered to host her at their home in the small German town, Wittlich. Jenelyn enjoys their friendly nature, but as time passes, she learns of a dark family secret and an evil legend that haunts the town.

The dark legend and tragic secret create a dangerous mystery, but to solve it, Jenelyn must put her own life at risk, while also discovering from the Spirits the most surprising part of her Journey, and ultimately, her future.

                     MY REVIEW 

  Jenelyn's life is about to change it is time for her to leave her home in LA and head to Germany.  It is time for her to listen to her spirits and find her destiny.  She doesn't know how long she will be gone but with the help of family and and friends Gretchen and Laszio. Where she uncovers a dark family secret and the evil that is haunting her . Will she put her life on the line and discover the part of Jenelyn and her future . 

  The characters in this story are very well written, Jenelyn is a girl who is straight forward and a sweet girl . Just watching her go through the story we see her really grow up into a woman who is figuring out the future and what the darkness is.  Gretchen and Laszio are like the sweet grand parents that just want Jenelyn to find her future and will help her out. Even though they have gone through a horrible heartbreak, that they will not talk about . These characters are so well written and you will want them to be safe and happy. 

 This is one of those books where you start reading and you think you are going in one direction and then bang you are transported to another place and thrown into a mystery. The characters are well written and you will love Jenelyn and her adventures. I really enjoyed this book but i did find that it moved a little slowly in some areas but overall I truly enjoyed this story and its way of combining a dark mystery and the story of a young girl trying to find out who she is and her past . So if you want a story that will have you on the edge of your seat and falling in love with the country and a young girl's coming of age. Check it out

WELCOME TO MONDAY

 Welcome to Monday everyone hope you are having a great day so far. I have a brand new series from Hp Mallory and J.R Rain. THE GOOD DAUGHTER (book one in the Dragon's Birthright series)

                        BOOK BLURB 

   Dragon shifter romance from bestsellers HP Mallory and JR Rain

Five years ago, I was banished from my father’s kingdom even though I was his favorite of his three daughters once upon a time.

Then my father lost his mind, and with no one else willing to take care of him, I took the responsibility upon myself.

We’ve been running ever since.

My two sisters, each queen of their own bordering territories, want ownership of my father’s lands, and they’ll stop at nothing to assume that ownership.

Even if it means killing my father and me.

Which is why we’ve been kidnapped by mercenaries.

But one man among the group of lewd mercenaries stands out…

Devon is withdrawn, quiet, and easily the leader of the pack, though no one seems to know him well.

When I’m entrusted into his care, I find myself fighting the natural attraction I feel towards him, fighting the stupid desire to paint him as anything other than a man being paid to deliver me to my death.

And yet, there’s something unearthly about Devon—something about how he appears to have super-human strength and speed, something about the detailed stories he tells around the campfire, vividly bringing to light the history of the noblest of creatures: the dragon.

Something that tells me maybe this man isn’t all he appears to be…

                     MY REVIEW

 Selena and her father are on the run after she was banished from her father's kingdom. For five years she has been taking care of her father because he has lost all memory of her and who he is. When caught by a band of mercenaries she has to put her trust in someone and that one person is Devon the loner of the group . There is something different about him and Selena can't help but be attracted to.  Will she be able to keep herself and her father save or will they be taken back to the people she wanted to be away from. Will she also figure out what or who Devon really is. 

 Selena is such a strong woman who is keeping her father alive. She is strong and intelligent woman who can fight just as hard as any man.  Devon is the quiet one who is more then he seems We also get to meet many new characters that are well written . 

 This is the first book in a new series and the authors take us on a fantasy ride .The characters are well written and complex for a first book in a series. This book seems a little darker then the other books from this team and I really like it . It gives you a really good gothic vibe to the story and there is the chance of seeing a dragon or two. I really enjoyed the start of this series and I can't wait for book two to come out. It is a great read for a weekend . If you want check it out .

MADE IT TO FRIDAY ITS TIME FOR SOME WICKED GRACE

 Good morning peeps today we are going to show some love to a new book that is out. Check out WICKED GRACE by Luna Joya 

ABOUT THE BOOK:

He’s a grumpy demon prince. She’s a sunshine magical orphan who’s his fated mate and forbidden. But can he survive rejecting her?

Demon prince Alexei is ruthless in business and deadly in battle. The mafia boss will do anything to protect his family, even consider an arranged marriage with a royal he doesn’t love.

There’s just one problem.

When the grumpy hero rescues a sunshine princess locked away in a tower, he knows she’s his fated mate. She also seems to be a freakin’ forbidden angel. Like the villain he is, Alexei rejects her without saying why.

Despite her tortuous childhood, Jolene is determined to find her real family and win her grumpy prince. Come on—the man has wings! But loving her antihero makes him a target of her human enemies who are out to destroy all supernaturals.

These two opposites attract in all the wicked ways. But when supernatural children in Alexei’s hometown start disappearing, the two must work together, and Jolene will have to reveal that her sunshine-and-sparkles magic isn’t what it seems. Can they find their happily ever after or will their differences and enemies destroy them both?

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY

 HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY  peeps hope you are all having a great day. I know flowers and chocolates are good but a new book is the best. THE FIFTH GATE (Gates of the UnderWorld book 5 ) by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain 

                          BOOK BLURB 

  The final book in an addictive Greek Mythology Romance series, perfect for fans of Raven Kennedy, Scarlett St. Clair, and Jennifer Armentrout.

I’ve made it through all the levels of the Underworld, and I’m about to come up against the man who is responsible for all of this…

Ares, the God of War.

And I don’t know what’s going to happen. Sure, I’m a demi-goddess, but my power is nothing in comparison to Ares’.

Not only that, but I’m alone on this mission. After being wounded in the fourth gate, I’ve left Adonis behind.

I can only hope I have an ally in Hades, but I have a feeling the God of the Underworld is playing his own game.

I can only hope I can defeat Ares, find my sister’s soul, and make it out of the Underworld in the two days I have remaining.

                         MY REVIEW 

 Pen has made it to the fifth gate and is ready to take on Ares but like most things in Pen's life things don't go as planned. Ares has a grudge to settle and he will do whatever it takes to take out his revenge on Aphrodite even if it is using her daughter . The only help she has well is Hades and he is running his own game. Now she has to find her sister and defeat Ares get back to find Adonis and get out of hell in two days. 

 Pen is at the end of the line, she has been beaten, almost killed a numerous amount of times. She is ready to take on Ares. She has grown stronger in her power but she still doesn't feel like she can do it. She is so much stronger then she thinks is. Ares well he is hurt in so many ways and wants to take it out on anyone and well everyone. But like with all great villains there is a hint of hurt that can heal with the right person. He is so misunderstood and he does become a help to Pen, We also meet again Hades and the rest of the Olympians.  These characters have all grown through out the series and become complex

  This is the last book in the series and the authors have outdone themselves in the way that they have drawn us into a world full of Greek Gods and Goddess and turn it into an adventure.  You will love and hate the characters and curse the authors for what they put the characters through. They also mix romance into the story line and Ares, Adonis and Hades will have you swooning.  I truly enjoyed this book and this series . If you want a good series check it out .

WELCOME TO TUESDAY

  Good afternoon my peeps I hope your day is going well. Today I have for you a new series from S.K Gregory. WATCHERS ACADEMY (League of Watchers book one ) 

                           BOOK BLURB

   Adeline 'Dell' Grimm has been in training to join the Watcher Academy her whole life. A legacy, her grandfather, Edward was one of the Academy's most respected members and Dell is determined to follow in his footsteps.

An impulsive decision could destroy her new life...

Left alone one night, Dell cannot resist a quick look at the recent delivery of artefacts. Artefacts which the Watchers are duty bound to keep hidden away from the world, for they possess supernatural magic, magic that could prove deadly in the wrong hands. Which doesn't bode well for Dell when she accidentally drops one of them.

A Watcher is supposed to keep evil at bay, but what happens when it walks among them?

Soon Dell finds herself missing time and when a fellow Watcher is found murdered, she wonders if she is somehow responsible. 

Turning to her fellow Watchers, Spencer and Max, Dell must figure out the truth before someone else dies.

                        MY REVIEW 

    Dell is starting a new job with a secret organization who takes care of the world's supernatural.  Until one night her life changes after she opens a box of artifacts that she wasn't suppose open. Things go from bad to worse when a watcher is found dead. Missing time and bloody knife will send her to get help from a fellow Watcher, Max. Will they be able to get to the bottom of what is going on. Will they be able to get to the bottom and figure out what is going on. 

  Dell is one of those characters that you will love she is a sweet girl who has wanted to be a watcher since she was a child growing up with her grand father. She is sweet and kind of naive in some ways.  I love how she handles her roommate from hell and the boss that dislikes her for some reason. There are so many characters in this book from Chelsea the boss from hell to Max the brooding seasoned vet.  They are very well written and trust me  you will want to clip a few of them upside head with a frying pan. 

  This is a fun book to read it is the first book in the series. The author has created such a fun story and the characters are so well written. For a first story it is well thought out and the characters are well developed . I really didn't want it to end and can't wait for the next book to come out . This is a fun fast read so if you want a fun story check it out .

WELCOME BACK TO MONDAY

  Good morning peeps, I hope that you all had a great weekend and had some great books to read. Today I have for you book one in the Blood Rose Academy and book 26 in the Haven Hollow series. BLOOD ROSE  by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain 

                           BOOK BLURB 

  I’m finally going to Blood Rose Academy, where I’ll be trained in witch magic, and I can’t wait…

Except Blood Rose Academy isn’t exactly how I hoped it would be.

First off, the witches are all catty and hex-happy, and I’ve been targeted as their newest victim.

And if that weren’t bad enough, there’s a longstanding feud between the witches and the vampires, which means all vampires hate the witches and vice-versa.

Maybe that wouldn’t suck so hard (no pun intended) if I didn’t sorta, kinda have a crush on one of the vamps—a loner named Rook, who happens to be the headmaster’s son.

But Rook doesn’t even know I exist. Well… it’s actually worse: he does know I exist, but he’s made it pretty clear he can’t stand me.

Fun times!

The ‘fun’ only increases when I learn that a handful of Fae students have gone missing and my only friend, a faerie named Oleander, insists there’s foul play.

Suddenly recruited into a club of rebels, I find myself helping them to solve the mystery of the missing students.

And guess who happens to be in this club?

Right—Rook.

To say he’s unhappy to see me is an understatement. Now, if I could just train my wayward heart to get over him… things might start looking up.

Between battling my own kind, trying to keep from getting drained by the vamps, searching for the missing students, and uncovering my own shocking truths, I’m wondering if I should have just stayed home.

                   MY REVIEW 

   Astrid is so excited that she is finally going to the famed Blood Rose Academy. Where she will be training in witch magic. But things aren't all rosy at the academy. Witches are hex happy and really catty. They have made Astrid their newest victim and throw in the long standing feud between the witches and vampires. Which puts Astrid in a dilemma because there are feelings for a certain vampire named Rook. The man runs hot and cold around her. One min he is all well swoon worthy and the next he is pushing her out the door. Then there are missing students and the secrets that are hidden in the walls of the school. Will Astrid be able to keep it together and not get kicked out or bitten by a vampire . With the help of her friends she just might survive. 

  Astrid is back and striking out on her own and trying to fit in. There is so much going on with this young woman. We see her coming into her own but there is also so much we didn't know about her that we are finding out, like her parentage.  She is stronger then anyone realizes and will do what it takes to figure out what to do. We also get to meet Rook who well is swoon worthy but like all vampires he runs hot and cold . There is also sadness to him that you really want to figure out.  There are so many new characters that we get to meet like her new best friends. I can't wait to see how everyone comes together. 

  I was so excited to finally see Astrid head to school but who knew how much trouble that could go on in one school. I love Astrid and I love that she is growing up and becoming more and more a strong woman in her own right.  The authors have added another level to the series and have added new characters while keeping the main characters fresh and relative. This was a fun fast read that I couldn't put down. I really love this series and can't wait to see what happens in Haven Hollow and Blood Rose Academy. With the people Astrid has in her life I can see the walls falling down around the academy when Wanda and the rest of the family show up to help out Astrid.  I really hope we get to finally meet Astrid's dad and finally figure out what his end game will be . You can read this as a stand alone but I would read the other books to get to know everyone. Check it out and let me know.

GOOD MORNING ALL

  Good morning all hope your week is going well and you are having a great groundhog day. Here on the farm well it will be winter for a little longer . Today I have for you book 3 in the Order of Magic series. THE FOURTH POWER by Michelle M Pillow 

                             BOOK BLURB

  Heather Harrison sees ghosts. It's not something she brags about. In fact, she wished she didn't. Communicating (or not communicating) with the dead only leads to heartache, and for her it led to a divorce. For the most part, she's happy being single. She's got a good business, close friends, and a slightly overprotective brother. What more does a forty-something woman need?

When her two best friends beg her for help in contacting loved ones, against her better judgment she can't say no to the séance. But some gateways shouldn't be opened, and some meddling spirits shouldn’t be stirred…like that of her Grandma who insists she's "found her a nice man".

The supernaturals have come out to play and it's up to this amateur medium to protect herself and her friends before the danger they summoned comes to bite them in the backside.

                      MY REVIEW

 Heather Harrison sees ghosts but it isn't something that she wants to tell others about. This only results in heartbreak for everyone involved. She is happy and has good friends what more could she want. But, when her friends want to have a séance to contact their dead loved ones things don't go as planned. Heather has to protect herself and her friends from the ghosts that came through the gateway before the spirits come back and bite them in the butt.

Heather, Lorna and Vivien are back for Heather's story . Heather is a sweet woman who has lost so much, her son and her marriage. She can also see ghosts and when she starts to see the ghost of her son, she has to figure out what he wants before someone gets hurt. She is a sweet woman who just wants to have a peaceful life and maybe some romance. She is strong and nurturing but has a sadness about her. Lorna and Vivien are so much fun to have as friends, they are there in the fun times and the sad times. Picking up pieces and helping put them back together . They all compliment each other in ways that true friends always should . 

 This is the third book in the series and well it actually has more of a love story to it . Don't get me wrong the other stories had romance but this is a more love story . The characters are well written and complex. Each character has such a strong presence through out the book . You will be on the edge of your seat though out the book but also there will be some tears also. This is a fun series to read. So check it out .
