GOOD MORNING ALL

 Good morning my peeps tomorrow we start back on reader round up novels . But today I have for you book three in the Gates of the Underworld series , DAUGHTER OF APHRODITE by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain,


                           BOOK BLURB



  The Underworld continues to spring new surprises…

After narrowly escaping Gate One of the Underworld, I find new threats and horrors facing me in Gate Two.

Led by the infamous Fallen God, Ruric, Gate Two is a land of black, onyx mountain and hordes of flying demons.

And Ruric is furious that Azhrea is dead, even though she was planning on wiping him out.

Men, right?

While I hope to defeat Ruric and move to Gate Three of the Underworld like yesterday (I am on a time crunch), I know I’m in for even more horrors.

Because Gate Three of the Underworld is lorded by the fierce Kanto, the King of Oblivion, and his level of the Underworld is a place that doesn’t so much mess with your body, but more with your head.

Take, for example, the white fog that fills the entirety of Gate Three and steals your memories as easily as it hides the deadly wraiths who live inside it.

I can only hope I survive Gates Two and Three of the Underworld so I can find out what awaits me in Gate Four.


                     MY REVIEW 
 Welcome back to hell , Pen and Adonis have made it to gate two and defeat Ruric fast  they are on a time line that is running out real fast. Well Ruric is peeved at Azhea cause well she wants him gone . Who knows what is going to go on and well gate three is just well a horror story. Kanto will just not only mess with your body but really screws with your mind . All Pen wants to do is get through the gates and get her mission done and bring her sister back . Will she and Adonis get through  the gates and will they survive . 

Penelope really gets put through the wringer in this installment . She is separated from Adonis and well is mentally abused . She is doubting herself and those around her . You know she is stronger then that and she starts to really show it . Adonis is also put through his own personal hell they both are led to believe that they aren't good enough . I am really liking the way the characters are growing and becoming more complex . 

 This is one of those books that you will devour , the characters are well written and complex and the take on Greek mythology is so much fun to read. The authors are a good writing team and you really get to know the characters well . This is one of the faster reads in the series and you will finish it in an evening . I truly enjoy this series and can't wait to see how they wrap it up . I am hoping for an epic battle for the last book . So if you want a good series check it out .

GOOD MORNING

  Good morning peeps . hope you Wednesday is going well so far . One more day and back to reader round up but today I have for you from one of my favourite authors A STREAK OF LIGHTNING  ( book 10 in the Warlocks McGregor series ) by Michelle M Pillow 


                         BOOK BLURB 



   Lightning isn’t the only thing streaking in small-town Wisconsin.

Warlock Raibeart MacGregor is on the prowl and looking for his true love. He has only one question for any lassie he meets, “Will ya marry me?” With his sanity often questioned by those who know him best, Raibeart believes there is a method to his madness. At least he hopes so. He’s convinced his true love exists, but he just can’t seem to find her.

Plagued by nightmares, he’s compelled to run himself to exhaustion each night to keep them at bay. The fact that he prefers to drop the kilt while doing so is just a bonus. But when those nightmares begin to bleed into reality, he realizes the woman he’s been searching for is literally the one tormenting his dreams.

Katherine Galbraith has been imprisoned by magick for so long that she can’t even remember what her crime was beyond the vague impression that she once loved a warlock. Bound to a world that never changes, she spends her days wishing for an end. But when prison walls begin to crack, she must decide if she wants a second chance at lost love or if that love is the reason for all her suffering.


                          MY REVIEW 
 Raibeart McGregor is just looking for the one and has only one question for any lass that he comes in contact with..Will you marry me. Some of the family think he has lost his mind but there is a method to his madness he knows his true love is out there somewhere but he just can't find her . Until the day the nightmares he tries to run away from start to chase him when he is awake . When he puts two and two together the woman tormenting his dreams is the one woman who captured his heart . Katherine is locked away in a magic prison for so long she just wants it to end . She remembers that she once loved a warlock but even that makes her sad until the day the walls of her prison start to crack. Now she has the decision to go and have the second chance at love or will that love be the cause of all her suffering.

 Ok if you are familiar with the McGregor men you will know about crazy uncle Raibeart . He has always been in the back ground . They may call him crazy but he has been hurt and just wants to have a love of his own . He truly isn't crazy he has been haunted by a past and a woman who haunted him . He is so much fun and he is one of the more  Katherine well she is a tortured soul and she just wants to end it all but can't until Raibeart came crashing into the prison she was in . These two are such a fun couple and I have never laughed so hard at Raibeart . The rest of the McGregor clan is also back to help figure out what is going on. These characters are so well written and complex . 

  I was so excited to finally read Raibeart's story .It really gives us an insight of what makes Raibeart tick. I sat down and fell in love all over again with the characters . They are so well written and comples . Each story reads like a movie and the author paints a picture of sexy warlocks and the women who love them . I would read the other books in the series to get a good grasp on uncle Raibeart before you start this book . This is a good series to honestly take you up to halloween . So if you like paranormal romance mixed up with some high jinx check out this series .

HAPPY RELEASE WEEK VJ LEE

  Good morning peeps ,hope your week is going well and you are staying cool . Today I have for you the second book in the Sister Jo series . JAX'S JO  by VJ Lee. 


                         BOOK BLURB 



  When an evil sweeps into the Valley of Sisters, and the one plant that sustains them is dying out, it’s time for Jax Underwood to man up and work with the one person who has dug her roots into his heart then ripped them out, leaving a gaping hole. It would help if he hated her, but it’s not hate that he feels when he sees her again.

Kelly Jo left her home realm behind ten years ago, along with her heart. Now she’s back to help Jax, the male who pushed her away, in order to find a cure for the mysterious illness that has the Sister of Peace in its deadly grasp. But with the plants that once spoke so clearly to them whispering riddles, they’ll need to work closely and try not to lose their hearts again in the process.

Will thorny vines grip them by the hearts, causing them to bleed out? Or will beautiful flowers of love bloom once again?

                    MY REVIEW
 What do you do when there is an unknown evil sweeps the valley of the sisters . The only plant that will help them out is dying . Jax has to work with the one sister that has planted herself in his heart but a fight and a betrayal has torn them apart . Jax must travel to the human realm to find her and ask for her help . Kelly Jo is living in the human realm and was surprised when the man she loved for so long comes and asks for help. Together they must put the past behind them and work on fixing on what is going on in the valley . They can help heal the sick sisters and maybe heal themselves in the process . 
   Ok Jax is wow , he is a Jason Mamoa look a like and well is just sexy and kind of gruff . He does surprise you and he has a heart of gold underneath the big burly gruff man. It does take him a bit to realize that he was in the wrong in the past but he does get it through his thick skull. Its fun watching him grovel and boy does he grovel well. Kelly Jo she is sweet and in control of what she wants but there is an ache in her heart though . She is also tougher then she thinks she is, even when she has self doubts about herself and her feelings for the big man.  Tempest is well she is evil underneath a pretty package, she is out to cause chaos between the men and the sisters . The guys don't remember what is happening and the one sister that know what is going on no one listens to.  I truly love these characters they are so well written and complex you feel every emotion that they have . 
  This is one of those books that you curl up with and don't put down until you are done . The author has a way of painting a picture that sucks you in and keeps you reading . You will love the characters and cheer for them . This could be read as a stand alone but to understand more I would read book one first then dive into this one. This should round out your summer reading challenge. Check it out .

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE

  Good morning , just thought as I am taking a break from reader round up while I wait for them to finish novellas . I would bring you back to Haven Hollow and the newest book by Hp Mallory and J.R Rain . COLONIAL CORPSES . 


                             BOOK BLURB



  Things seem always to go downhill whenever it comes to me and relationships…

Even though I’m in a relationship with Roy, he’s been avoiding me lately, claiming he’s just been super busy with work.

It’s an excuse I’ve heard many times before.

I’m not really sure what’s going on between the two of us, but I’m worried he’s lost interest in me and the relationship.

But as much as it pains me, I know I’ll survive. After all, I’ve survived my myriad breakups before, so what’s one more failed relationship in the mountain of ‘Fifi’s failed relationships’?

At least I have Hallowed Homes to keep me occupied and our newest set of clients—a family of four Romanian vampires.

The vampires have decided to open a year-round haunted house attraction (much to Lorcan’s dismay) in the old Colonial at the top of the hill, overlooking Haven Hollow.

But when someone suddenly ends up dead, I’ll find myself stuck in the middle of a murder mystery most foul.



                      MY REVIEW 
  Welcome back to Haven Hollow , where things aren't what they are suppose to be and the supernatural walk the street with the mundane. Fifi is trying to figure out why Roy is ignoring her , she thought they were having a good time together . But he has been avoiding her and she is trying to figure out what the heck is going on. The only thing that is bringing her any peace is her real estate agency . When a family of vampires want to move in to an old colonial over looking Haven Hollow to open of all things a haunted house . But when someone dies at the haunted house Fifi finds herself stuck in the middle of the murder mystery . 

  I am so glad that Roy and the gang are back . I absolutely adore Fifi , she is one of those characters that has heartbreak but she is a survivor and when things go wrong she seems to be able to fix them with well not going to say no damage but she does do her best to help everyone out. Roy well you kind of wanted to punch him a couple of times through out this book , he just well he is a man and sometimes he just doesn't get that his aloofness can cause someone else to question their feelings .  Poppy and the girls are back but this is dominantly Fifi's story . I love how these characters are continuing to evolve and grow, 

  This was a fun fast read , I am really loving this series so much . Each book is like well i am going to say it . Its like watching my favourite tv series . Each book is like the next episode of a wonderful show.  I love how the authors have more then one person for story lines . It feels like a community . The story always stays fresh that way and you stay engaged more . This is such a fun read and when you start you  will be hooked by the end of chapter one and also you will be laughing your face off just at a drunk Lorcan who knew vampires could get drunk . So I think you should really add this series to your reading list for the end of summer .
