                        MY REVIEW
.
  This anthology has some great novellas from some great authors and some new authors to me . There are different genres for everyone . There are some stories i preferred over other but over all the stories had my Christmas spirit soaring

 The one story that I really loved was THE CHRISTMAS CONTEST  by Theresa Sederholt . 
It is a sweet story of a grandfather wanting his grandson to find love and the way he does that is to have a contest to win his house in Nantucket .When Jack finds out well of course he is going to do something to stop it . Will Donald be able to bring Jack and Holly together in time for Christmas . 
 i truly loved these characters, Holly is the sweet woman who wants to get out of her dead end job . She will melt your heart . Jack well he is your typical guy who left to advance his career . They are sweet when they come together . Donald well I want him for a grandpa . he is a character and man you will fall in love with him from the first moment he gives you an oatmeal cookie . 
  This is a sweet novella that will have you wanting to hug grandpa and praying that Jack and Holly come together .  There is a moment in the book that you might shed a tear and have a hardy laugh. You will also want one of those oatmeal cookies that Donald makes and pays everyone off with . 

 This is just one of the fun filled stories you will find in this anthology . So if you want some time to yourself this holiday season this could be the book for you . A great book to curl up with so grab your glass of wine and a cozy blanket and snuggle on in.

HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO ROBYN PETERMAN

   Good afternoon all , sorry I am late but was doing some last minute Christmas prepping . Today I have the new book by one of the funniest writers out there . FASHIONABLY DEAD AND LOVING IT ( book fourteen in the Hot Damned Series ) by Robyn Peterman, 


                             BOOK BLURB 



   Being an undead Princess comes with baggage. And unfortunately, it’s not Prada.

Getting shredded in the Daily Fang, The Bloody Times and The National Dhampir is par for the course in the life of a royal Vampyre—especially mine. However, that’s nothing compared to the sh%tshow unfolding in my life. 

My nightmares are coming true. 

Satan is throwing fits about changing diapers 

.The Baby Demons are full of cryptic messages. 

Martha and Jane have a sphincter obsession. 

There’s a half-naked Demon in my closet with a mouth as foul as mine. 

On top of all that, we’re hosting Demon-hating royal houseguests.

Oh, and did I mention the Vampyre-eating-Zombies on the west coast? 

With Ethan by my side, along with new friends and a few well-hidden enemies, it’s time to adjust my crown, put a few Vampyres in their place, and kick some Zombie butt. 

I’m dead.

Life is still good.

I have unconditional love. 

And on most days, when I’m not covered in Zombie guts, I’m wildly fashionable. 


                        MY REVIEW 

  Its all starting with the weirdest nightmare that Astrid has ever had . With everything from Ethan and Satan making googly eyes at each other to the Vampyres that hate her . Mother nature swinging from the rafters and her butt being glued to the throne. What is a vampyre princess to do but figure out who is turning people into zombies and make nice with the demon in her closet and Ethan's family . She straightens her tiara and kicks some butt that is what she does . 

  Omg Astrid and the gang are back and honestly funnier then ever. Poor Astrid just wants to survive the weekend visit from all the snooty vampyres . She finds her inner princess in this installment and man the hilarity that ensues . She also has to handle Satan and his meltdown over his daddy duties which i will admit I nearly fell off the couch reading these two . Satan is just hilarious and still so self absorbed you will get a kick out of him . We also get to meet two new characters in Levi and Anastasia . Anastasia is Ethan's sister and has a wicked sense of humor . She is like the sister Astrid needs and wants . They are hilarious together.  Then there is Levi who is Astrid's brother or as what Satan says . He is brooding and well he is sexy as sin also. He doesn't want to be anywhere near Astrid but they are forced to be together and they have to work together to get to the bottom of the zombies . 

  This is the fourteenth book in the series and it seems just as fresh as the first book . The author has a way of writing that will have you snorting with glee . The characters are well written and you will love them all . The story is a fun fast read that will have you laughing all night . I love how the universe keeps growing with each and every new character added . The two new characters Levi and Anastasia better get their own book cause you know they will be fighting right up till the end . This would be a great story to read and relax after all your Christmas shopping is done . So check it out and check out the series . You will not be disappointed

GOOD MORNING ITS FRIDAY

   Good Friday all , its the weekend. Today I have book 2 in the Progenitor series by Matthew Cox . Lets check out OUT OF MIND 


                              BOOK BLURB



  Sima Nuvari never expected to see her seventeenth birthday.

Outcasts seldom live long once they’re too old to look like innocent children. Survival requires hard choices: crime, gangs, prostitution, drugs, or worse. Sima got lucky—they kicked her off the planet.
Gangs won’t kill her anymore, but a giant, venomous cat might eat her.
She couldn’t believe anyone truly wanted to help her, but her harrowing arrival in a damaged escape pod chipped away at her armored psyche. Eight months after finding the colony, she’s made the worst mistake an Outcast can: becoming emotionally attached to another person. A new family offers her a good chance at life. Too good, in fact.
It’s probably all just a simulation. Fate would never allow her to be happy.
As if she needed more to keep her up at night than the planet Mirage possibly being an illusion, it seems not every colonist is happy. Someone out there is angry enough to kill… and somehow, Sima has gotten in the way of their plans.


                          MY REVIEW
  When Sima found by the colony she is scared and not wanting help but they are there to help. She made the mistake of starting to care for the people that are her family .They are offering her a chance at a good life in some cases too good of a life . There is more to this planet then meets the eye. It all could be a simulation cause no one would want her to be happy . There is someone that is not happy and is angry enough to kill and Sima is the person they are after . Will Sima be able to have her happily ever after 

  Sima is a seventeen year old girl who has had a bad past but when she lands on Mirage . She ends up becoming a hero after she saves a couple of her friends . She kind of shies away from all the hero stuff and wants to become just a girl going to school. She is strong and resilient . She just wants to be happy but things just don't add up . You watch her become strong and fearless. She can kick butt . There are so many great characters that help and hinder Sima . 

 This author weaves a whole universe when he writes his stories . When you read you are transported to another time and place .  The characters are so well written and complex . The story is very involved .  There is intrigue and just a little bit of romance that goes on in this book . You will be on the edge of your seat most of the way through this book . This is the second book in the series but you can read it as a stand alone but to get to know the characters more i suggest you read book one . So if you want a great read for your winter nights check it out
