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 .

GOOD MORNING

   Good morning my peeps , I hope you had a great weekend and the last day of March is good to you. Today I have a new book from Linda Thomas - Sundstrom. PLACES OF POWER. I was lucky enough to get an advanced copy of this book. the paperback is out today and the kindle copy comes out April 2. 

                            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 .

LAST BOOK OF READER ROUND UP FOR ME

   Good morning my peeps well this is the last book for reader round up as last day is tomorrow.  This was so much fun for the first one of the year. Found some new authors and also read some more books from the authors I adore. For my last book its is a new author to me Mila Young and her book THEIR PRETTY LITTLE MONSTER.

                          BOOK BLURB 

In their arms, danger becomes desire.

Every year, monsters demand their Offerings—women like me. This year, I thought I escaped. I thought I was safe. Then he arrived.

The Viscount.

Dangerous and ruthless, he declares me a late Offering. Swept into the deadly realm of the Shadowfen, I realize I’m not here by chance.

They want to rule, and I’m their key. My reality crumbles, and as much as we act like enemies, they refuse to let me go. Their touch ignites a fire I can’t resist, fueling desires I never expected.  They call me their little monster.

Maybe they’re right.

Because when everything is stripped away, a fiercer side of me no one expected—not even me—emerges.

You see, in the shadows, temptation and peril collide. So, ready or not, the monster within is about to be unleashed… and these three Shadowfen are eager to claim their prize... 

Me 

                     MY REVIEW 

 Sage is trying to survive in her small village on earth until the day that the Viscount comes out of the darkness and tells her that she is this years offering and is swept away into a deadly realm of Shadowfen. When she meets the three monsters/ men that are her true mates . Each of them a beast in his own way. They want to take back the kingdom that was stolen from them and Sage is the key . Will they become the rulers they were meant to be and will Sage survive the realm and become the one true heart that they all need and crave. 

  Sage , Killian , Wolfe and Nykos . A woman and her monsters . Sage is a sweet girl who really didn't belong in her world . She was shunned and bullied most of her life.  But she carries herself with a quiet dignity and a strength that helps her through what is happening to her . She knows that she is destined for great things . Killian is the dominant one Nykos is the feral one and Wolfe is the obsessive one .  Each man is oh so sexy and brooding . They are all feral and want to possess Sage but also want to let her grow and keep her safe.  They all want the same thing to keep Sage safe and take back their realm. The characters are well written , but I will say Sage's naivete kind of got a little annoying it was great to see her grow and get a back bone. 

  This is one of those books that you start and kind of get lost in . This is the first time reading this author so it took me a min to get into her writing style. The characters are well written and complex . The author has so many twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat and there are some really smexy times through out the book. It just proves that sometimes you need the monster and the man. So if you want a book that will have you reading well into the night check it out 

COUNT DOWN FOR READER ROUND UP

  Good morning peeps , reader round up is getting closer to being done .  I have found some really good books this round up and today I have another one for you it is a mystery RUN SUGAR RUN by Catherine Marcum. 

                           BOOK BLURB

 Lisa Harker changed her name and is hiding from her past. An awful marriage led to a messy divorce, and a daughter who deserted her to live with her ex-husband. They didn't know she was an award-winning author who had been living in New York for ten years. No one knew she'd lost her writing mojo.

Then she received news that she had inherited a house, land, and a lot of money from an aunt that had lived in Billings, Virginia. She used to spend her summers there as a teenager. The few friends she did have encouraged to go for it. Start over someplace new. Why not?

Billings held memories of her first love and meeting new people too. But no one told her that starting over could be deadly...

                      MY REVIEW 

 Lisa has been living in New York for the last ten years, hiding from an messy marriage and a even messier divorce. With her daughter siding with her ex, she hid the fact that she is an award winning author, who has lost her mojo. Until the day that she gets a letter that she has inherited a large sum of money and a house and land in Billings Virginia. So why not start again. What a way to start over in a car accident and a body in the trunk of her car.  This town has memories and the fresh start she is looking for to get her writing career back and maybe find a new love to call her own. 

   Lisa has been hiding for the last ten years . She is a sweet woman who will help out anyone that needs it. There is a sweetness hidden under her spine of steel . She sometimes doesn't listen to those that care for her. The first person she meets is Linc the police detective , he is well hot and has a sternness about him. He can't help it around Lisa , she has this pull with him that he can't deny. Dr Nate is the total opposite, he  is sweet and has a kind heart , the kind of guy that any woman would want . They both have eyes on Lisa . Each character is well written and complex in their own ways . 

  This story had me up past my bedtime wanting to find out who the murderer was and why they were killing everyone. The author has put so many twists and turns through out the book along with throwing in some romantic time for the main characters. The characters are very well written and there are moments that you seem you can't trust any of them. I just wish that the book delved a little bit more on who the murderer was and left a few more clues cause it was just poof this is who did the killing and no real breadcrumbs on who it might of been . Over all I really enjoyed this book so check it out 

GOOD MORNING MY PEEPS

   Good morning my peeps another day of reader round up and today we have one of my favourite authors.  V.J Lee and book four of her series in the Fated Mates of Thorne Bay. Let me introduce you all to CHASE. 

                            BOOK BLURB

 Chase Norwood was happy being a loner and a vampire who enjoyed keeping to himself and hiding in the shadows. Until he came back to the place where he had buried his past.

Now that he is back in Thorne Bay, Alaska, he hopes to move forward with his life. In this cold and stunning place, he finds a new family with the other loggers—the shifters who became his brothers.

However, they can never learn what happened in Thorne Bay hundreds of years ago.

As the mechanic in the camp, he looks bad when equipment starts breaking down, causing his brothers to look at him like he is incapable of doing his job. In his professional opinion, someone seems to be sabotaging the equipment, trying to run them out of town.

When he sets a trap, he never expects to find his fated mate—in the form of a little feisty-as-hell wood nymph. It turns out that Harmony Clive might be the one who snares his heart. His wood nymph activist is determined to take their logging camp down.

Will he have to choose his brothers over his mate? If his secrets come to light, he might lose them all anyway.

                       MY REVIEW

 Chase is a loner and happy to work in a remote logging camp as a mechanic . Oh forgot to tell  you that Chase is also a vampire and the logging crew he works for is made up of all sorts of shifters and beasts. Things are going well until things he finds out that machinery is starting to be sabotaged by someone or something . After setting a trap to capture the person involved. Chase wasn't ready for what he found, his mate and a wood nymph. Now his worlds are crashing in around him and will his secrets be spilt after a hundred years of hiding them and will he give up his mate for his brothers to save the logging camp. 

   Lets see Chase and Harmony are two of the most unlikely mates but they are fated . Chase is a loner and a tortured soul. He has been carrying his guilt around with him for over a hundred years. He is surly and kind of rugged around the edges . Harmony well even though she is an activist she is sweet and sunny with a hint of danger to her.  They both have secrets that they don't want to let go of . It seems like Harmony has different plans when she meets Chase but when they do fall they fall hard for each other, I must say I love the way this author writes her characters and always they seem tortured but also redeemable.  They come out very complex and oh so well written. 

   This is one of those books where you start and you can't put it down. The author loves to give us a roller coaster ride and she doesn't make it easy on her characters either.  This is a mystery with steamy time and fated mates this is the story for you . It is part of a series buy you can read it as a stand alone. So if you want a great story with fun characters check it out

GOOD AFTERNOON MY PEEPS

  Good afternoon all, I am back with a fun romantic for your perusing.  JUST YOU WAIT by Bree Kraemer. 

                          BOOK BLURB

 Instead of sitting at home on a Friday night, swiping left or right on her phone, Mya somehow ended up at an indie gaming convention.

She was helping out a friend and was happy to do so since she was a gamer herself. Until she spotted JT Stone.

JT was the last person she wanted to see. He annoyed her on a level that exceeded anything else, even if she couldn’t figure out why.

She contemplated running, but the second he saw her, that idea went out the window. She was just going to have to suck it up and talk to him.

JT had never been more thankful he'd helped a friend. He hadn't known Mya would be at the gaming convention, but if he had, he’d have purchased a dozen tickets, all for the chance to see her. He didn't know why she despised him, but that wasn’t at all how he felt about her.

From the moment he’d met her in Mexico, he’d been enamored. He did everything in his power to get closer to her, but nothing worked.

Until now. Somehow, they were at the same place at the same time.

This could be his chance.

                      MY REVIEW 

 Mya is the friend that likes to stay home and play video games and design her role playing games . She is basically coerced by her best friend to go to a gaming convention. Which she is so happy and excited to go. Until she sees the one man that she thought she would never see. JT Stone. Who was never happier to help their friend out and was excited to see Mya . They start out as friends but both of them are confused on how they feel. They both are scared and excited to find out where they will go. With the help of friends and a little gaming help these two will get it figured out and realize that they belong together. 

  Mya and JT what a fun couple. Mya is the one that would rather stay home and work on her video game and also play those games . She seems to be the quiet one that will hang with her friends and be happy for the couples they are becoming but wonders if there will be someone out there for her . She covers up her uneasiness with a snarky attitude and wit. JT is the one guy that can make you laugh and think that he is such a sweet heart . But under all the laughter there is a bit of sadness about things that have happened in his life.  He is a great graphic designer when he finally gets his chance to help Mya out on the graphics for her game . He is in it for the long haul and he will do anything to make Mya his. These two are such a fun couple. They are well written and you will cheer them on and want to slap both of them a few times .

   This is a fun fast read, I truly like the way this author writes her characters and they interact with each other. They are all friends and when push comes to shove they are there . This is a slow burn but when they get down to it , its hot and heavy and might set your kindle on fire. So if you want a fun read by a fun author check it out.

WELCOME TO MONDAY

   Good morning peeps , it is Monday and another day of reader round up . Today we are going review a paranormal romance story by a new author to me  A PLACE TO BELONG by Larynn Ford 

                            BOOK BLURB 

 Were-panther Boone Weaver is making his dream of raising cattle on a farm all his own come true. Outdoor work at his place is interrupted by a heavenly scent he can’t quite identify but is compelled to seek out. Carly Garner’s cheating fiancé sends her life into a downward spiral but refuses to let her go arousing a secret buried deep inside her. Can Boone help her escape the man determined to hold her captive and rob her of her true heritage? Will she be able to trust another man?

                        MY REVIEW 

   Boone Weaver is trying to make his dream of being a cattle rancher come true. While one day out fencing , he smells the most intoxicating scent ever , oh did i forget to tell you Boone is a were panther.  He starts hunting the scent down and finds an injured Carly, who is running from a lying ex husband. Boone wants to help her put her life back together and figure out her past or will the ex find her and sell her to a man that wants  to harm her and take her true heritage away from her. Will Carly ever truly trust another man again. 

   Boone and Carly are such sweet characters . Boone is a were panther who wants to live his life and make it as a cattle rancher. He is sweet and kind but when he finds out his mate is nearby he really becomes mr protector.  Carly is sweet and kind but there is so much sadness in her heart . She has been hurt so badly by her husband that she is scared and almost timid when it comes to being around others. They really do balance each other out and Boone is there to be what ever Carly needs and wants. 

  This is a shifter novel but what I really like about it is that the author doesn't have them wham bam in insta love . She gives them space and time to get use to each other and let them find their way to each other naturally. The story is a fast read that I read in an evening . I liked the characters and I do wish that we had a little bit more depth to them to make them a little more complex. So if you want a fun read that is sweet and romantic with a good mystery to it . This would be it . Check it out

ANOTHER DAY OF COOL NOVELS

  Good afternoon peeps, it is Sunday here and another day of reader round up. Today I have for you another novel for you from Matthew Cox. This one is pretty cool AXILLON 99

                           BOOK BLURB

 Death isn’t a big deal in the virtual world of online gaming, but after poking her nose where it doesn’t belong, Dakota Marx finds herself running for her life―and reality doesn’t come with a respawn.

At twenty-two, she’s still slinging coffee at an Amazon Cafe despite having a degree in programming. It’s not because she’s unlucky, unmotivated, or even that she fancies herself an underground activist crusading against evil corporations… hunting for a ‘real’ job would take time away from her game.

Axillon99 is the world’s most popular multiplayer online experience, with a universe containing billions of planets to explore. Ever since video games broke the screen barrier, plunging players fully into their characters, reality just can’t compete.

Cognition Systems International announces a ten million dollar prize to celebrate the release of the next generation Neurona 4 interface helmet. After her crew decides to try chasing the money, Dakota discovers a sinister intent behind the new technology. Going public threatens the lives of her friends, but keeping CSI’s secret could destroy the very fabric of society.

                          MY REVIEW 

  When in the future everything is own by the big company's like Amazon . Dakota is working at the Amazon cafe to help fund her on line role playing game . When the CSI company decides to hold a 10 million dollar game challenge to launch their new system . Dakota and her friends decide to play. Dakota discovers malice in the game.  If she tells the world it could threaten their very lives but if Dakota hides the secret it could ruin the whole fabric of life. 

  There is a a great cast of characters in this book. Dakota is the leader of the merry little band of misfits . She is twenty two and trying just to be a no one and wants to play her role playing games .  In real life she tends to hide and just do her job and go home . In the game she is fearless and considered an underground activist that are fighting against the evil big corporations.  Erik is well her boyfriend who would forget to cuddle so they can play the game longer . He is a sweet guy who just wants to play the game and see how far he can get. There are many more characters that we meet in this book real life and in the game. Each character has a great personality and are very complex . There are moments that you want to just hug Dakota and the rest of the gang and other times you want to basically slap them upside the head for the stupid stuff they do. 

    Honestly I didn't know what I was getting into when I started this book. Was not ready for the roller coaster ride that the author took us on. The story is one of gaming and what can happen if the companies aren't what they seem to be and the real life that can be a little boring after being in the game. There were times when I had a hard time realizing when I was in the game and then in real life through out the book.  This would be a great book for those that love gaming and role playing .  So if you have a gamer or want to read a good sci fi book that will keep you awake all night this is the book for you

GOOD SATURDAY ALL

   Good afternoon peeps its another book down in reader round up . Today's book is a mixed bag for me . I have read other books by this author and loved them, this one I am on the fence about. But, I am going to tell you about it and let you decide for yourself . THE SAND PRINCE  by Kim Alexander 

                             BOOK BLURB

 Two worlds. Bound by magic. Divided by a door. On the barren, war-ravaged demon world of Eriis, the fierce queen Hellne fights to keep her people alive and her son Rhuun's heritage a secret. On the green and gentle human world of Mistra, demons have faded into myth. Only a handful of old men and fanatical children still guard The Door between the worlds. Different and shunned by his demon kin, Rhuun finds refuge in a book that tells of a human world of water and wonder. Forced by his mother's enemies to flee Eriis, he finds himself trapped on the other side of The Door in the very place he has read and dreamed about—Mistra. Chained to the deadly whims of a child who guards The Door, Rhuun must balance serving and surviving, even at the risk of exposing his true identity. Riskiest of all is his task of kidnapping an infuriating young woman who is about to find out that the demons of Eriis are much, much more than just an old bedtime story.

  

                    MY REVIEW 

 Two worlds that are bound by magic , a demon world and a mortal world . In the demon world we have Queen Hellne and her people, and her son who she has kept secret . On the other side the mortal world , the demons have faded into the myths . When Rhuun find peace in a book of what the human world is like . When forced through the door by his mother, he finds himself in the land of the mortals . Where he has to balance serving and surviving in this new world . While he has to do the one task of trying to kidnap the one woman that infuriates him. Will he be able to prove to this young woman that demons are more than a bedtime story. 

   There is a massive collection of characters in this book. Hellne is a tough woman who wants to keep her people safe and her son also safe. Rhuun is well he is different then most demons he has been bullied most of his life. He is just a different guy and can fit into both worlds nicely.  Hellne and Malloy are secondary characters but they play a big part in the story line and keep us going on the right direction through out the book . The characters are well written and you will have your favorites . 

   This is a hard book for me , I was on the fence about how I would write about this book.  The characters are well written and the story is one that would be wonderful. But I also feel that the author could of written the book in about half the length that it is.  There is also a little editing that needs to be done. The author does paint a brilliant picture of the two worlds and the characters in each world . Over all I did enjoy this story and would love to see what happens in other books in the series . 

GOOD AFTERNOON ALL

  Good afternoon my peeps , yes I am back with book two for Novels for Reader Round up. This afternoon I have for you a mystery/ thriller  KILLER INSTINCT  A Neverly Moore book one by Michelle Cochis

There are a few things I'm sure of, it's deadlier than I ever imagined and hellbent on, not only destroying my world but also ending my life.

 

                       MY REVIEW 

 Neverly has been fighting for the past two years to get back her life . She was a police officer with the Ontario police service when she witnessed a gruesome murder. Since then she has been having feelings of being watched. When the bodies start to pile up around her she has to ask her ex partner for help to figure out what is going on. Before they both end up dead. 

 Neverly is a strong woman who has had a bad last two years, she is a fighter and wants to figure out who is following her and whoever is killing people that she knows . She does have a bit of a stubborn streak and she likes to push people away. Dex is her hot ex partner who has and on and off relationship with her. He kind of comes off as cocky but underneath he has a heart of gold that will do whatever it takes to help Neverly out and figure out what is going on. Flynn is well he is a loner who has a way with people, he is one of those people that you like him but you can't really trust him .  Each character has flaws that make them more relatable and makes you want to cheer for them and keep them safe. 

   This is one of those books that is a good mixture of a mystery and paranormal thrown in a thrill. The characters are well written and complex. This is the first book from this author that I have read from her . I liked how the story flowed well and there was some good twists and turns that had me on the edge of my seat for most of the time . There are some very hot scenes through out the book . I like that this is a Canadian author and she used landmarks and towns that are recognizable to me . I can' t wait to dive into boo two and see where she takes us . Check it out I read it in an afternoon .
