GOOD MORNING AND WELCOME TO DAY 4

   Good morning my peeps , I hope your week is going well . We made it to Friday wooohooo and it is day 4 of reader round up . We are heading to the Black Hills wolf pack for today's book. A COUGAR AMONG THE WOLVES by Kali Willows . 

                            BOOK BLURB

   A sadistic attack leaves Klaya, a Puma Clan Cougar, critically injured and the last of her family ferociously slain. She stumbles into Black Hills Wolf territory and collapses. Now under the protection of the pack, she finds herself whisked away to hide out in a cave until her old friend the alpha returns. Potentially the last of her shifter kind, she has nothing left to lose, but her life and a chance to avenge her brother.

After a dangerous rescue, on the edge of pack territory, Seth and Rogue take a woman on the brink of death back to the pack. Her identity and why she was brutalized is a mystery. The pieces soon fit together proving this assault was no coincidence. The Black Hills Wolves pack faces a bigger threat than they could even imagine. The trio soon find themselves on a tumultuous journey of life and death and relentless lust.

                       MY REVIEW

  After Klaya was brutally attacked by a group of men hunting her for sport. She is rescued by a couple of enforcers from the Black hills wolf pack . Taking her back to the compound where the dr takes care of her and the men try to figure out what the heck happened to her . With the help of her friend she helped a long time ago and the two new men in her life , well more than men in her life , her mates .  They are on a path that could end up getting them killed while trying to save their mate but will they survive . 

  Ok honestly fate has a way of throwing people together case in point . Seth and Rogue two young wolf shifters and enforcers for the Black Hills pack . They are two very strong wolves with a heart of god both of them. They want to protect and attack those who want to hurt the ones they love. Klaya is one tough cookie , she has been through so much . Loosing her brother and most of her clan she has nowhere to go. After her attack she is well she wants revenge for killing her brother . She does have trouble asking for help because of her loner existence because of her being a cougar shifter. She does become part of the pack and with her mates she will find out who is murdering her clan. They are all strong characters that are so well written . You will love them all and want Seth and Rogue for yourself. 

  This is a evening read that has revenge and romance mixed in . In other words there are some fun sweet times and some very hot times. The author does put them through the paces though before they get their happily ever after. I will say that there is some abuse in this story but it is handled very well and sensitivity. This can be read as a stand alone even though it is part of a series . I am looking forward to reading the rest of the clan's stories . So if you want a story that is a fun read with some romance check it out

DAY 3 OF READER ROUND UP

   Good morning my peeps. hope your week is going well . Yes it is day 3 of reader round up and today I have for you a Christmas story, lets dive into MERRY FRIGGIN' CHRISTMAS by K. R  Hall 

                             BOOK BLURB

 Nicholas Whittaker, a man who hates Christmas with a passion, moves to Manitou Springs, Colorado, to start a handyman business and escape the holiday he detests.

But when Natalie Hughes and her five-year-old daughter Lainey move to Manitou Springs after her husband's death, Nicholas finds himself surrounded by the holidays he's tried so hard to stay away from.

Can Natalie and Lainey convince Nicholas that Christmas is a wonderful time of the year and miracles do happen?

                         MY REVIEW 

 After tragedy hits Nicholas, he moves away from all things Christmas even the town he lives in. Starting over was hard but he has done it and got his handyman business up and running. Until the day he meets his newest client Natalie and her daughter Lainey, they moved to Manitou Springs after her husbands passing. Something stirs in Nicholas as he starts to hang out with them and actually starting to get his Christmas spirit back.  Will a Christmas miracle happen and will hearts heal over the most magical time of the year . 

  Nicholas and Natalie have been through so much. Nicholas has had so much tragedy in his life ,loosing people he loves has made him kind of jaded and closed off . He comes off as kind of a grinch and wants nothing to do with Christmas. He is the sweetest guy underneath and it only takes a sweet woman and her daughter to bring it out of him. Natalie is such a sweet woman who is drowning in grief and sadness after loosing her husband. She is tough but also so very tender you just want to wrap her up and take care of her. They are sweet together and start to become more and more comfortable with each other . You start to see them change and fall in love even when things go wrong Nicholas will fight for what he wants and what he wants is Natalie and Lainey in his life . 

  This is a sweet second chance love story with sweet characters set at my favourite time of the year. The characters are well written and you really want to cheer for them . This is a fast read and I finished it in an evening but it is nice to have a story that you can sit down and have a good feeling after you are done. I do wish we had a bit more of their romance good and bad overall the author does a great job with their love story. So if you want a sweet read for the holidays check it out.

                         BOOK BLURB 

 There once lived a princess and prince, with magic powerful and grand. with exalted titles and alluring wiles, they were hunted by many across the land. Puffed up on his own bravado, Prince Erik embarks on a quest to fetch an army for his father the king. How was he to know there were those out there willing to kill and rob him? Thankfully, he has his sister Abby by his side. Armed with his charm and her stellar wit they might just make it out alive. Yet when they arrive at the neighboring King's castle, the royal ropes Erik into an ultimatum that could snatch away his freedom. In a last ditch effort to save her brother, Abby poses a riddle. One answer will bind Erik to the neighboring kingdom for all eternity, the other will grant them the sought after army. Is Abby's magic cunning enough to outsmart their enemy? Or will her brother pay the price for her failure

                         MY REVIEW 

    When Prince Erik is asked to secure an army by his father. He is sent out to the neighboring kingdoms . His sister decides to come along to protect him with her magic to help keep him safe. Abby has her work cut out for her keeping her brother safe . Who knew there were that many people out there wanting to kill Erik or rob him. But will their quest be fulfilled or will Erick loose his life in the process. 

  I love stories about princes and princess. Erik is your typical young prince he does come off a little bit full of himself thinking he can do anything without getting hurt . He does come off as a little arrogant through out the story. Abby is sweet and she really knows what is going on and wants to prove magic is for everyone including Erik and not just for girls  .They do show each other how much they love each other and are comfortable together. They can talk about almost anything as they travel. They meet a slew of different characters that well you can't trust them. Most of them want to kill them. They are well written, I do wish that they were just a little bit more complex and the authors dove deeper into their relationship. 

  This is a book that would be great for your teen, there is magic, armies and family . You really get a nice fantasy vibe with the book and it shows that sometimes your younger sister can help you out. This would be a great book for your teen to read on a cold evening . So if you want a read that you and your kids would like check it out

ITS DAY ONE OF FALL READER ROUND UP

  Good morning my peeps , yes it is that time again , time for Reader roundup fall edition. Today I have for you THE COLD ONES  ( A Tale of Ancient Ireland ) by Gabriella Messina

                          BOOK BLURB 

 Ireland in the Dark Ages is a land of extremes… clan versus clan, light versus dark…

Patricius is a man of God, a Christian bent on bringing a new Light of Faith to the remote land where he was once a slave. It is a harsh and primitive land, though, and he soon finds himself confronted with suspicious minds, dangerous foes, and unbelievable creatures that challenge the very heart of his Faith.

To save our world, Christian and Druid, human and fae, must unite, and wage an epic battle to drive the darkest of evils from the Emerald Isle, and from the World.

Where Old Gods meet New… a Legend is Born…

                      MY REVIEW

  Ireland during the dark ages is running on various extremes . clans versus clans . good versus evil and old ways versus the new faith. Patricious a man of God who was taken as a slave when he was younger is trying to bring the new faith to a world where old traditions and ways are ingrained into the fabric of the land . He finds himself in a world where things not as they seem and he comes up against dangerous enemies and things he can't explain and challenge the fiber of his very being .To save the world a Christian, a druid , a human and a fae must wage war to save them all 

 This is one of those books that when you start you will meet some of most interesting characters . Patricious is a man of faith that is true to his faith and can not be wavered in his convictions. But as he fights the battles both internally and externally he is kind of torn on what he sees and what he believes. Medb is a warrior and the queen of Ireland but through history she is much more and her husband. Lorcha a druid who is a foe but also a help to Patricious and his band as they battle the forces of evil. The characters are so very well written and complex . They jump out at you and pull you in to the story. 

   This is a book steeped in lore and history of things that went on in Ireland.  I got so sucked into this read and the Celtic Mythology that embodies in the story.  The characters are great and the story is entertaining and page turning . I think that your teen can read this book with no problem It is a fast entertaining read that you can read in an evening . So if you want a good read for your fall reading challenge check it out.
