Book Description

Lila McCarty used to see dragons.

That was before they killed her mother, before she told everyone what happened and people stamped the “crazy” label on her head. Now, as a senior in high school, she has no time for dragon legends or the tourists who putter around her lighthouse. She just wants to graduate and get the hell out.

But when twelve of Lila’s classmates, including her best friend, mysteriously vanish during the town’s dragon festivities, she tracks down the three mysterious guys who seem to know more than they let on. They’re sexy and infuriatingly charming, though that has nothing to do with why she’s enlisting their help.

It turns out Lila wasn’t crazy. Dragons are real. Not only that, the three dragon shifters have answers: her past, her role in their hidden world. It’s Lila’s duty to save her friends, whether she likes it or not.

When her classmates start turning up dead, she’s on a race against the clock--find the killer, or lose them all.

Book Review

As with all of Ingrid's books, there features a strong willed heroine, Lila. She's just been looking after the lighthouse, but there are creatures in the dark who have been waiting for her to come into her own.
The boy she crushes over finally invites her to a bonfire party, and cancels on her within the spate of a day. She decides to go anyway. That's when he distracts her for a while and when she returns to the bonfire, everyone is gone.
Now Lila must find her friends before they end up dead. That means she needs to trust new people, discover a secret world and wonder if the dragons from her imagination as a child were real people! Not to mention figuring out just how she is the new guardian!

Book Description

After the death of his wife and twin sons, Army vet Ian Slaney is a shadow of his former self, on the path of self-destruction. Only his best friend's disappearance pulls Ian back from the ledge. When he rushes to help, he discovers that his friend was murdered. 
The single lead in the case is also the single biggest obstacle-Daniela, a mysterious beauty very much in need of protection, with a host of secrets hidden in her past. He needs her help as much as she needs his. But as the two of them track down clues and try to untangle an impossible case, they draw the attention of all the wrong people.
Ian wants the murderers. Daniela wants Ian to acknowledge the hot sparks of passion between them. But convincing Ian to set aside his protective instincts proves more difficult than teaching a water buffalo to tap dance.

Book Review

I wanted to rage and cry about the injustices that Daniela went through as a child. It was a situation that one can identify with all too clearly in third world countries, including rural India. However it was heartening to see how the author brought about a metamorphosis for this exploited child. It was a confirmation of the good in the world to read about how Ian supports Daniela and makes her dreams come true.
Of course the regular fare of mystery and thrills that Dana Marton always provides in her books is also present. The scenery sucks you in, just as much as the story does. The characters are so believable, even the evil ones, that it's scary. Another wonderful read from the author. Although it says Book 3, each of the books in the series are stand alone and can be read in any order.

Gloria Chavez is more than a little bossy, but her stunning smile and warm, generous ways quickly capture Walt’s heart. But how can Walt be sure Gloria’s ready for the big dose of Christmas he’s able to deliver?

Book Review

We are back in Christmas Town with a new comer. Gloria Chavez is a guest at the Christmas Inn run by Walt Christmas. She's here to help Savannah and Kurt before the baby comes. Although she literally has no idea about the magic that she's stirring up in the town.

We see more of Walt's daughter Noelle, the writer in this book. Although her twin Joy, is out in Italy learning to live the artist's life in Florence. Walt is suddenly assaulted by the need for more peppermint in his life as Gloria innocently stirs things he had long believed dead and gone.

Flying mail, cookies and milk appearing from no where, and transporting to a beautiful tropical beach are all part and parcel of the magic in the Christmas family. The real question is, will Gloria be able to accept it all?!

Book Description

Today, Bia is a Goddess, but her claim to immortality hangs in the balance.

All she knows is her mountain-top citadel with its god-honed buildings and endless comforts. However, this glorious place tolerates only greatness, and she must prove herself in order to stay.

Bia is agile with the sword, but she has no ability to make her a real contender in the yearly competition. What chance does a Skillbarren have against opponents who can control the elements, seize the mind, or wield any number of unimaginable powers?

None.

Bia could surrender and become a mortal. But that would mean dishonor and exile. Three clashes—only one warrior can survive. It’s impossible for Bia to triumph with nothing more than her wits and her sword. But she must win—or die.

Book Review

This is another great start to a new series by Ingrid. Bia is born a Goddess, but she's got to talent. This means that she needs to fight to survive the trials to remain in her version of heaven and home. With a mother who is barely able to conceal her disgust for the daughter and sisters who have shown her no affection, Bia survives with her close knit group of friends. However even in her close alliance there may be troubles. How is she going to survive the trials? Is she going to chose to fight, or simply descend with the rest of the untalented gentry. Superb.

Book Description

 Zara Kenrook has never wanted to be ordinary. Abandoned at an orphanage, destined for a life in the slums, she’s clawed her way to the top and made herself a name as one of the best treasure hunters in Elantia.

But Zara hasn’t gotten to where she is without making enemies, and when one of them calls in a debt, her entire livelihood is thrown into peril. Suddenly, Zara is faced with two impossible choices—break into a dragon rider’s home and steal a priceless artifact, or lose the career she’s worked so hard to build.

Luckily, Zara has some experience pulling off heists, and she’s never been one to back down from a challenge. But when the object she tries to steal turns out to be a dragon egg, her whole world changes. For this particular dragon is about to hatch, and once it lays its fiery eyes on Zara, her life will never be the same…

Book Review

So in a lot of ways Zara Kenrook reminds me of Sunaya, and that's a good thing! This little orphan has gone from being a freelance treasure hunter to a dragon rider. The transformation takes place through a series of adventures. It was a story filled with mafia type elements, social class segregation, different magical talents, a drool worthy potential boyfriend, elements of a steampunk society and of course the most adorable dragonling, Lessie.
Can't wait to see the trouble this dragon baby gets into next with Zara. With this book Jasmine has gone back to her original strength of the fantasy genre with a strong female lead character. Thankfully no RH elements seen so far!  I am absolutely delighted with the book and look forward to the next one.

Book Description

She's finished waiting. 

Cora Walker is tired of waiting for Justin Kensington to open his eyes 
and see that they could be great together. No worries. She's got a Man 
Plan, More specifically, a Get-Over-The-Man Plan. Or maybe she'll call 
it the Move-on Method. Whatever. It involves online dating and sorting 
through the losers to find her winner. He has to be out there 
somewhere, doesn't he? 

Justin Kensington knows he blew it with Cora, but what can he do 
about it? If he was anyone other than the man he is, he would be 
chasing her hard. He would make sure he got a ring on her finger 
before anyone else had a chance to steal her away.

But he's the son of a monster, and the brother of a man who kept his 
wife--now one of Justin's best friends--captive in a hell no person 
should have to live through. 

Cora deserves more than he can give her. But when things heat up and 
Cora uncovers the truth about a water poisoning scandal hitting the 
town and its workers hard, he'll end up battling for her life and her heart.

Treasure and Protect is book seven in the Heroes of Evers, TX Series, 
but it can be read as a stand alone book in any order.

Book Review

Justin feels guilty about not being around long enough to spot the abuse that his mother and sister in law have been going through in their marriages. He feels that he should have been able to help them and failed. So now he's put his heart and soul into the organization that they have set up to help other domestic abuse victims. The trouble is, he feels that he may be cut from the same cloth as his father and brother. This means he can't risk falling in love and having a relationship.

Cora is one of the kids the Walkers have fostered. She was left alone in a park, abandoned by her birth mother. Her scars are more emotional than physical. She's been more cautious in love than most expected. Then she fell hard for Justin, but how long is a girl supposed to hold a candle for a guy when he doesn't seem inclined to respond? When Cora decides to let her old feelings for Justin go and begin dating, it catches Justin by surprise.

Not to mention the jealously that surfaces. He's trying to be a good guy and let her experiment with her online dates, but he's just too protective of her. Can they find their way to each other before things get totally out of hand? That's what this story's about!

Book Description

Six women receive invitations from Dawson Yates, owner of Perfect Match, a brand-new online matchmaking travel agency for a free week-long vacation to the island of her choice. As part of an extensive promotional campaign, Dawson expects to make six perfect matches that he can use to champion his business. The women expect to meet the men of their dreams. What none of them anticipates is the chaos that ensues when six couples who were strangers before agreeing to spend the week together discover that love is a lot more complicated than a match made by computer algorithms.

This is Bree’s story…

She’s traveled the world. He’s never left Nebraska. They say opposites attract. But that was before these two were matched up.

When Bree Wilson receives an invitation for a free one-week vacation to an island of her choice, her gut tells her it’s too good to be true. But how can she refuse an offer from a good friend? Especially when it’s to promote his new online matchmaking travel agency. However, she wasn’t prepared to spend seven days with Jayce Owens, the most annoying man she’s ever encountered. Forget finding love. Will she even last the week?

Bali is a long way from Nebraska. And Jayce Owens is entirely out of his element. He’d expected to meet a sweet country girl, not a sophisticated, well-traveled woman with a tenaciousness that drives him crazy. To make matters worse, when they get lost while hiking, he discovers that neither one of them has brought enough supplies to last more than a few hours. Could this once-in-a-lifetime vacation to find his perfect match wind up costing him more than his heart?

Book Review

This is the first book in a spin off series from the multi author written Beach Brides series from last year. So you will be revisiting that world with a number of secondary characters from the first books coming into their own in this series. Bree is from Amy's book. She was Dawson's best friend. Now Dawson is instrumental in putting her and six others through the Perfect Match software.

This travel, adventure, and dating agency is hoping to prove it's worth by matching up six people with their soulmates. Not that Bree is interested, but she can't refuse her best friend a marketing gimmick that will help his business. Also like he keeps reminding her, she works too hard and she needs to take a break.

A week's holiday on an island in Bali, close to where another resort of her company is coming up sounds like a good compromise. She can do a little work, she can take some time off and she can get to meet someone interesting. It seems like a sound plan, till she meets the dairy farmer who Perfect Match feels is her match. They couldn't begin to be more different!

Book Description

When Nia Rivers closed her eyes and let death take her, she thought her immortal life had finally come to an end. But death is only the beginning, and for an adventurer like Nia, there is no rest even in the afterlife. 

Now, Nia stands in the Garden of Eden, and all is not well in paradise. A group of angels are lobbying for the eradication of humanity, and as the bipeds continue to commit heinous acts that affect all of creation, God seems less inclined to say no with every passing day.

As the vote sways out of humanity’s favor, it’s up to Nia and her friends to stop the Apocalypse. But to do it, they’ll have to find a way to claw their way back to the surface and re-enter the world of the living once more.

Of course, that might involve fighting an army of angels, and defying God herself. But no one ever said coming back from the dead would be easy…and if Nia doesn’t figure it out soon, there won’t be anything left to return to.

Book Review

God's a woman! That really made me smile. Yes so many of the mysteries of Nia's life were solved in this book, only to leave us with more questions. Especially with the little adventure that Tres and Loren take to Asgard.
Now that Nia and Zane have their HEA, I want to know more about what is happening with Loren's love life. She can't just die a mortal death as a regular human being. I mean her best friend is immortal. Her two beaus are immortal and one of them can make her immortal. Can't wait to read what happens next to Loren.

Book Description

For much of her life, Nia has uncovered, recorded, and tried to stop the genocide of humans. But now the tables are turned, and death is rushing to meet her. In order to stop it, Nia must uncover clues to the garden where her kind are fabled to come from before two more of them meet the end of their immortality. 

The clues she finds leads her into the rainforests of Central America. In the heart of the modern Mayan world, she’ll reunite with the Balam, jaguar shifters whose ancestry may hold the key to getting into the underworld of the gods. 

With the Balam queens at her side, Nia travels through the midwest of Native American tribal lands where the doorway to her ancestral home may lie just below the surface of the Serpent Mound. There the Mohegan, the wolf shifters of the north, are not the only ones who stand in her way. Someone is destroying ancient mounds and blocking her path to the underworld.

As time runs out, Nia must find a way into the underworld or another of her kind will die. And this time, that person could be her...

Book Review

OMG! OMG! OMG! Can't wait for the last book. Nia is in so much trouble. Just as Tres makes through her defenses, she's swept right back into Zane's arms. Zane's so much more than the passionate artist. And the new shifter characters? Absolutely awesome. Can't wait to enter the garden with her in the next book. Wish it wasn't the end already!
