My Review

4 Stars!!

The V Girl is Mya Robart's debut novel and I think she did a very good job on it.It is set in post-apocalyptic North America, a time where sexual abuse, violence and death is a norm. The topics and parts of this book had darkness to it yet it didn't overpower the story. Its a dark subject but it didn't make the book a sort of depressing, gloomy book that it could have been. There were a lot of elements to it with some twists I wasn't expecting.

Lila is a character that has to grow up fast and she becomes head of the family. She is the one everyone relies on and looks up to. With a sick brother and a younger sister to protect from anyone who may try to rape her.She is called V girl since she is a virgin and it is something she wants to get rid of. She wants to lose her virginity with her consent because if or when she gets recruited the soldiers will definitely rape her and take it by force.In her haste to get rid of it she becomes desperate. She decides to ask her friend Rey who she has known forever and trusts.Things don't go to plan when Aleksey Fürst enters the scene.

“You usually can’t recall all the people you’ve shared laughs with. But you rarely forget the people you’ve shared your tears with.”

First of all Lila at points really annoyed me with her desperation to get rid of her virginity like I understood why but she made silly rash decisions that left her in awkward situations. They could have all been avoided and she did do some immature things. I know she is young and I guess that's on me since I usually read adult novels due to the maturity factor.I felt like she jumped to conclusions without thinking things through.

Because I loved Aleksey, I'm sorry but Rey had to be on my shit list. I don't think I've ever liked two guys in a book where they both like the heroine. I love one of them and have to hate the other, I just can't help it. I know Rey wasn't a bad guy but no, just no. I stacked everything against him when I fell for Aleksey. This isn't a love triangle but at times felt like it but not to the point where it put me off since I can't stand love triangles.

I would have loved some chapters to be in Aleksey's point of view since he was quite a mysterious character and I wanted to know more about him. I didn't want this book to end nearing the end I felt a little panicky since I felt like there was quite a lot left, that needed to be added yet there were so little pages left. Will we get more? I felt like it was left quite unfinished like there may be more in store.I felt like the deflowering bit was quite stretched out, like I just wanted it done with and to see their relationship slowly building and becoming stronger.

Mya Robarts..Can we have little Aleskey babies? That would be so awesome! I'd love a novella or something showing them both in the future.There were a few characters I wanted t know more about, what happened to them and so on like Rey's brother and Tristan!

Looking forward to more from this author :)

Review: Dragon Bound (Elder Races #1) by Thea Harrison

Synopsis

Half-human and half-Wyr, Pia Giovanni spent her life keeping a low profile among the Wyrkind and avoiding the continuing conflict between them and their Dark Fae enemies. But after being blackmailed into stealing a coin from the hoard of a dragon, Pia finds herself targeted by one of the most powerful—and passionate—of the Elder Races.

As the most feared and respected of the Wyrkind, Dragos Cuelebre cannot believe someone had the audacity to steal from him, much less succeed. And when he catches the thief, Dragos spares her life, claiming her as his own to further explore the desire they've ignited in each other.

Pia knows she must repay Dragos for her trespass, but refuses to become his slave—although she cannot deny wanting him, body and soul.

My Review

5 Awesome Stars!!

Omg why have I not seen this book before? This is exactly what I needed to back into the reading mode. Since the start of January I have been in a book funk and it has been killing me.So here is to the first 5 star read of 2015.YAYY!!

It's been a while since I have read paranormal, I was getting sick of contemporary romance/erotica that I have been reading and really needed a change I was supposed to start a thriller but when I saw this one whilst browsing through GoodReads I just had to buy it and start straight away.And I'm so glad I did.I could not but this down, I inhaled this book. Who needs sleep? Not me!

“I am cursed with a terminal case of curiosity," he said. "I am jealous, selfish, acquisitive, territorial and possessive. I have a terrible temper, and I know I can be a cruel son of a bitch." He cocked his head. "I used to eat people, you know.”

So the main male character is a dragon.Yes that's right.A frikin Dragon. I thought that I would find him..meh the whole dragon thing I haven't really read about but omg I loved Dragos. Come on, look at that quote, of course I would love him! And I really like the main female character who is called Pia. She is strong, funny and they were so perfect for each other. I'm disappointed that Pia and Dragos's story doesn't continue, or maybe it does but the next book isn't about them! I thought they would stay main characters throughout the series :( But hey I still want to read on and find out more because I did really like the supporting characters.Can't wait to find out their story.

“A dragon just gave me a piece of jewelry,” she said. She took another swig and handed the bottle back to Graydon. “Have I been added to his hoard?”

He shook his head and drank too. “No, cupcake,” he said. “I’m pretty sure you’ve replaced it.” .

This is a well written book which will take you to a place you won't want to return from.On an adventure you didn't know you needed until you start this book. I need more books like this one! I would recommend this to every Paranormal lover :D

Release Day Blitz/Excerpt/Giveaway: The Swan And The Jackal (In the Company of Killers #3) by J.A. Redmerski

 

By NYT Bestselling Author J.A. Redmerski

An Adult Suspense/Crime/Thriller/Romantic Suspense

Releasing March 5, 2014

Amazon UK | Amazon US | Goodreads

KILLING SARAI (Book, #1) is on sale for .99 cents for a limited time!

Fredrik Gustavsson never considered the possibility of love, or that anyone could ever understand or accept his dark and bloody lifestyle—until he met Seraphina, a woman as vicious and blood-thirsty as Fredrik himself. They spent two short but unforgettable years together, full of lust and killing and the darkest kind of love that two people can share.

And then Seraphina was gone.

It’s been six years since Fredrik’s lover and sadistic partner in crime turned his world upside-down. Seraphina went into hiding and has eluded him ever since. Now, he’s getting closer to finding her, and an innocent woman named Cassia is the key to drawing Seraphina from the shadows. But Cassia—after sustaining injuries from a fire that Seraphina ignited—suffers from amnesia and can’t give Fredrik the information he desperately seeks. Having no other choice, Fredrik has been keeping Cassia locked in his basement as he not only tries to get her to recall her past—because she and Seraphina share it—but also to protect her from Seraphina, who clearly wants her dead.

But Cassia is a light in the darkness that Fredrik never believed existed. After a year subjected to her kindness and compassion, he finds himself struggling with his love for Seraphina, and his growing feelings for Cassia—because he knows that to love one, the other must die.

Will light win out over darkness, or will something more powerful than either further destroy an already tortured soul?

(Note: THE SWAN & THE JACKAL is NOT a New Adult title.)

 

 Exclusive Release Excerpt

Cassia pushes herself closer when I thought she couldn’t get any closer and urges me to look at her. Her right hand moves toward my face to console me, but I stop it, holding it at the wrist and pushing it back down.

“The only one of us who should be talking about our past, is you,” I tell her.

Her doe-like eyes fall under a shroud of disappointment.

But she’s not going to give up so easily.

“You’ve asked so much of me, Fredrik,” she says with such kindness, “but when I ask anything of you, you turn me away. I only want to know this one thing. I don’t care anymore about Seraphina, or the history you have with her. I don’t even care what I have to do with it.” Her soft hand ends up touching the side of my face anyway, and I’m not sure how she slipped it past my barrier. “All I care about anymore is you, Fredrik.” She peers deeply into my eyes and ensnares my gaze, her face full of heartbreak and longing. “What are your demons trying so hard to kill?”

I push her hand away more forcibly this time.

“Do you remember anything?” I ask, disregarding her question altogether.

“Stop,” she says with more intensity than I expected. “You’re going to give me this. 

Before you leave me alone down here another night, you’re going to tell me.”

The desperation in her eyes bores into me. I look away, only to look right back at her.

“Please…,” she says.

A lump moves down my throat and settles somewhere in my chest. All ten of my fingers spear through the top of my dark, messy hair and I let out a miserable sigh of defeat.

I never talk about my past to anyone. Ever. I try not to think about it, but on some days that is as futile as trying not to breathe. It wasn’t until I met Seraphina eight years ago that I learned to control it, that I became a much different man from the one who hunted shit stains like Dante Furlong, tortured and murdered them every other night, never feeling the satisfaction that I longed to feel with every kill. I was like a drug addict, always looking for a fix but never really satisfied enough to stop. Never satisfied at all, because I only wanted to do it more and more.

Seraphina helped me control the perpetual urges. She showed me how to release the darkness within me with quieter, cleaner methods so that I didn’t leave a trail of bodies and evidence behind. But the biggest impact that Seraphina had on my life was making me feel like I had one. Because before her, I was just a speck of dust floating around in oblivion. I didn’t know the meaning of happiness, or understand the thrill of pleasure or the hunger for excitement. I was just a shell of a man who knew only darkness and death, who only felt the emotions of anger, and hatred, and rage and vengeance.

But Seraphina, she was my dark angel, who came into my life and showed me that there was so much more to living than I ever understood. Ever since she left me in that field the night she set my house ablaze, I’ve been slowly but surely succumbing to my old life again, and I need to find her before I fall too far.

If I haven’t already.

Review

4.5-5 Fukin Fairy Loving Stars!!

What can I say? Bravo Amelia Hutchins you have done it again! This is book 3 of the Fae chronicles and what a brilliant book it is. This series has me hooked.Yes, Yes I am a addict and I regret nothing!The complex characters, the storyline, the twists, the connection, hotness and much more..this book has it all! Once you start it you just can't help it, you crave more and more. So yeah each time we have to wait for the next book to be released?..yeah that is just torture!

If you have stumbled across this review randomly and haven't started this series..errr wtf are you waiting for?!! Get your arse into gear and dive into this series because you will not regret it!

'Every beauty needed a beast, and he was mine.'

This book continues from where Book 2 left off and gets right to it.I was soo glad that this didn't drag I was scared that Ryder and Syn would be separated for too long and I would get annoyed but oohh the twist was like oh my god I thought this but then eh? omg I'm confused but pheww! haha for those of you who haven't read it probably thinking err what is this girl talking about?! Ahh you got to read it to get it ;)

'Fate pushed us together,but destiny knew we belonged together.'

You find out in book 2 that Syn is pregnant and I was like Oh yeahh! Totally doing a happy dance coz I was just so happy that the baby was Ryder's!! And thankfully Adam and Syn didn't have to get married.All that caused me to dislike Adam but thankfully I didn't feel any anger towards him in this book and liked him as long as he isn't with Syn.

Hormonal Syn and an overprotective Ryder oh yeah this was so good!In this book Syn was in a more fragile state and things changed she isn't always the stubborn woman you met in book 1 and 2.You get to see a different side to Syn and it built her character..okay maybe I lied she is still stubborn as hell but instead of lying to herself about her feelings she learns to accept them and learns to fight for those she loves.

"Goddammit, Pet, See me!" He shouted as the walls shook around us.

You also see a different side to Ryder and we find out more about the Beast.I love the Beast ;) You see the Beast is much simpler than Ryder.He wants something, he takes it, he owns it he doesn't hold back on how he feels. Ryder is much more in-depth character who has trouble expressing his feelings at times.But in this book you see changes and both of the characters develop and grow.

Oh and before I forget Ristan is now one of my favourite characters! Yes he bloody rocks! I want a hot, hilarious Demon best friend..where can I find one? I had a soft spot for Ristan in book 1 and as the book went on I fell in love with him but in this book he became so much more.This book wouldn't be the same without him..actually this series wouldn't. He adds an element of perviness to the mix haha naww he is just brilliant I loved how he was helping Ryder and Syn with their relationship issues.And I am rooting for Danu and Ristan! You go get her boy ;)

If you are looking for a book filled with action,humour, sexiness, twists and turns leaving you craving for more this is definitely the book for you! I couldn't stop reading, yeah I read all through the night and then hated myself for reading so fast because I had finished it and now what? WHAT am I supposed to do now huh?

"This is heaven, Synthia. Inside of you is my heaven",he whispered so softly that I wasn't even sure he had said it.

Please, Please hurry with the next book, there is only so much this addict can take!

Review: Tall, Dark and Lonely (Pyte/Sentinel #1) By R.L. Mathewson

Synopsis

Things are finally looking up for Madison. After years of scraping just to get by she lands her dream job and finally has a decent down payment for a house so she can move her brother and sister into a real home. It's too bad nothing ever goes the way it's supposed to. When the mother that abandoned them years ago suddenly shows up and moves them to New Hampshire Madison has no choice but to go or lose her brother and sister. Shoving her dreams aside yet again, Madison tries to make things work, it's really cold, her fifteen year old sister acts like a hooker in training, men act funny around her, her boss is a real jerk, she feels like an outsider, her best friend turns out to be a sixteen year old punk, and the incredibly handsome guy renting the room adjoining hers not only hogs the bathroom, taking three showers a day and leaving her with cold water, but he also has a secret. A secret that she becomes a bit obsessed with and can't let go no matter how many times she's warned off.

Detective Ephraim Williams learned long ago not to show any emotion or allow himself to get attached to humans. What was the point? They came and went and he remained. This time wouldn't be any different or so he thought. When his landlady told him her grandchildren were moving in he didn't expect much, well other than to be left alone. What he didn't expect was to have to fight bloodlust every time he so much as caught a whiff of his delectable neighbor's scent or her bombarding him with questions every time she cornered him. If that's not bad enough a Master from his past has found him once again and is demanding his blood and is willing to do anything to get it, even using the exasperating neighbor that makes him feel more than pain for the first time in centuries.

My Review

 4 Bloody Stars!

After reading the synopsis I was like oh oh this is a book for me! I have only read one other R.L.Mathewson's book which is book 1 from the Neighbour from hell series called Playing for keeps which i loved! I know, I know just one other book *hangs head in shame* It is now on the top of my to-do list to get more books by this author read.

Tall, Dark & Lonely is book one in R.L. Mathewson’s Pyte/Sentinel series.I somehow got this notion that this was a funny book and would just be a fun, humorous book.And well it did have funny buts but there was a lot more to it and imagine my shock when it starts off on a serious note! It starts off telling us about Ephraim Williams and what happened in his past.We get insight into how things changed for him and the brutal condition he survived.My heart hurt for him and I really just wanted to make it all better for him!

Ephraim Williams is a special vampire known as a Pyte. Being a Pyte enables him to walk in the sunlight without being harmed.He has been alive over 200 years and settles in quiet areas and always keeps to himself.He is always in control of his blood lust and has never had a problem with it after he learned control.Things all change really fast when Madison Soloman becomes his new neighbour. He can't seem to stay away and his blood lust is out of control.She drives him crazy and he can't explain why her blood smells better than anyone else's.

Madison Soloman is a strong, responsible woman who has had to raise her brother and sister whilst her mother went away to do her own things, chasing men and so on.Nothing seems to be going well since her mother returned, they are on their way to live with their grandmother (their mums mum) who they haven't really met since their mother stopped talking to her parents. Madison has had alot on her plate, with raising the kids, putting herself through college, getting a job and so on. She hopes things with her grandma will help ease all the responsibilies.

Little does she know her new neighbour will change everything!

“I’m not asking you to love me. I’m asking you to let me love you. I’m fine if you never say it. I just want you, Madison.”

Madison was a likable character, she was funny with some of the things she came out with and she wasn't one of those whiny women thankfully because I am so sick of those. I loved the banter between Madison and Ephraim. Oh Ephraim oofftt he was so HOT!

R.L. Mathewson sure knows how to create sexy, hot, loveable male characters that make you wish you could live inside a book forever.I loved him, just didn't want this book to end, wanted more of Madison and Ephraim story. Hope we still see them in book 2.

“See that’s exactly what I’m saying. You’re seeing what you want, and what you see you explain away and excuse things like you’re fixing me. I’m not perfect, Ephraim and I really wish you would see that.”

“You drool.” 

“What?” That caught her off guard.

“When you’re asleep you drool. I’ve woken up more than a few times with a little puddle forming on my chest.” After a thought he added. “And you snore. Not a delicate snore either mind you.”

“I do not!” Her face colored with indignation.

He sighed heavily as if the knowledge pained him. “Oh, but you do. I’ve even heard Jill talk about it. Did you know that’s the main reason she was happy about her room. Actually, she and Joshua thanked your Grandmother for putting you at the other end of the house, something about finally getting a decent night’s sleep. They compared your snore to a chainsaw. I can see why they’d say that.”

Hahaha! I can't wait for more and I hope that as the series goes on it only gets better.I would definitely recommend this to PRN lovers and anyone who loves humour, fast paced story and much more.I could not stop reading this book and was up late at night.I just had to finish it, I was totally absorbed on this book and wanted more.I didn't want it to finish yet I couldn't stop reading it..yeah not a great combination.

My other fav character has to be Chris he was hilarious! Such a strong, funny, adorable character who is rough around the edges due to circumstances he has been faced with at such an early age.

“It’s not complicated and it doesn’t compare to my problem, now give me a damn cookie I think I earned it,” Jill snapped.

Chris grinned like it was Christmas morning. “Yes, you did.” He brought her a cookie. “Very good, my young one. You’ve made Chris very happy with this little tidbit of information.”

I am looking forward to see how the story continues.Book 2 is Chris's story and I am intrigued.I will be looking forward to seeing how his story unfolds and what will happen to the rest of the characters.

My Review

4.5-5 Fantastic, Jay Loving Stars!!

J.M. Sevilla any book you write.. I will be reading! So any more you release, just send them my way ;)

I absolutely adored book 1 in the Marked series and was really excited when I got sent this arc.I may have jumped in joy..okay that's a lie because its just to cold for that shit, I did do a little wiggle in my chair! I know, I know ain't I bloody active girl!

I was going to read it later because this one it the last book in the series *sobs* but it just didn't work out that way.Since I am on the subject of this being the last book, can we have more? pleasseee? Ben and Arianna and Hattie and Charlie soo need their own book! *puppy dog eyes*

“I can’t imagine a life without you in it. You make life worth experiencing, worth living.”

This book starts off where book 1 left off, Lily has gone home and Jay is trying to lure the marker out.It's kill or be killed.He wants her safe and away from everything as there may be a chance that he doesn't make it.They are separated and in this time you see change, their characters grow and become better versions of themselves. Lily who was at first seen as a meek and somewhat shy becomes more confident and brave.jay on the other hand wants to change, to become a better person for Lily.Nothing is that simple and as the story continues there are twists and excitement,intense scenes and pages you just can't stop turning.I was pulled in right from the start and couldn't stop reading until I had finished it.I tried to slow down, I just didn't want it to end but them my curiosity got the best of me.

“I’m afraid that somehow I’m cursed, and if the universe hears me something will happen and you’ll be taken away from me again.”

Jay struggles to become a better person, he believes that she deserves better and has no idea what she is doing with him. Their separation is difficult for both of them, Lily is always worried that Jay may not ever come back for her, what if the Marker kills him? She is trying to get on with her life but it just isn't the same without them having each other. Jay's love for Lily is more than he could have ever imagine it even overrides his hate for The Marker. His need for revenge is nothing compared to his love for Lily and he will do everything in his power to keep her safe.

“Be that man, Jay. Be the man who fights for us and will never let anything destroy what we have. Don’t doubt the love we share.”

Circumstances causes Lily and Jay to meet up again but its not easy and there is a lot of danger.Can their love survive? Or will The Markers plans break them apart forever?

New characters were introduced and I wanted to know more about them as well as old characters returning.We find out more about Ben and Arianna as well and I need more! Since reading book 1 I have had a soft spot for Ben and my heart hurt for him and I wanted to see things change for him.

I recommend this series to everyone who wants an intense, thrilling, action-packed journey filled with love, revenge and much much more!

My Review

4.5-5 Action-packed, Twisted, Unexpected Stars!!

Margaret never stops surprising me! The story has so many twists and unexpected moments it keeps you on the edge of your seat all the way through and when you see that you are nearly finished you think oh I can finally breath and then POOF! ending knocks the wind right out of you!

"You called me Honey.Thank you Anna"

"Is that okay?" He told me he wanted me to call him by an affectionate name and that's what I picked.I don't think he would've liked me calling him 'dead motherfucker'.

Book 2 of the HiT series and it carries on from where book 1 left off.Anna is back with a bang! New enemies to take down more secrets to uncover and obviously more bad people to kill.Falling in love with someone she was supposed to kill wasn't supposed to happen but it did and now she will do anything to make sure Ben Pearson is safe from danger.So what happens when someone extremely dangerous comes to St Cloud? Someone even Anna will struggle against.Power, greed, money and sins..he has lots of it and he loves his power and control.What happens when these two dangerous people go head to head?

Anna has disappeared and hasn't met Ben since she left..or so Ben thinks.What he doesn't know is that she has been at St Cloud all this time, hiding in plain sight.In this book you saw a softer side to Anna as well as her normal bad-ass cold demeanor.Okay in this book Ben pissed me off at times he was being such a little scared girl urgh loved him in book 1 but in this one i wanted to smack him around the head and tell him to grow a backbone! Anna irritated me at times when she treated him like her bitch but then again Ben was acting like one soo he kind of brought it on himself.

I was just sitting screaming for him to BE A MAN!! I really hope in the next book we get to see Ben take on a more alpha/dominant role and take care of Anna instead of it always being the other way around.Also I want to see more of Anna in a vulnerable role which I think we definitely will be seeing since the book finished in such a way.

I'll need to find my targets and execute this with precision.There isn't any room for error.This hit is personal.This is a Hit for Freedom.

Okay let me get onto to something that there was a lot of...SECRETS! Damn secrets!!It was like everyone had a secret and each secret linked to the others which made each secret dangerous.Anna and Ben both have secrets and omg I just was like please, please tell each other, I swear it you don't you will regret it!! Things will go bad and it will be because of these secrets and what dya know? I was right!

I think their relationship needs a lot of work they both kept secrets, they both have trust issues and need to work and improve on their relationship or else everything will be going downhill fast!I felt like Anna was babying Ben trying to take care of him and thinking of him as a kid who can't take care of himself, instead she should have looked at him as an equal and told him what was going on so he can take care of himself.

Okay Ben's secret I so knew it! But still he was so out of character I really wanted him to take on his role and quit hiding behind this mask.Each characters hides behind a mask of power, money, greed, control and more.I can't wait to find out more about the new characters introduced and how the story will continue.

On a side note, I so want to know more about Agent, is it just me who finds him so damn cool? Yeah yeah I love a smart guy but C'mon how can you not? he is so good! haha

About the Author

I love to read. I'm a huge fan of books and when I start reading anything, I usually forgo doing everything else, I mean the housework will still be there in the morning (right?). When I love a story or book that I've downloaded, I usually refrain from sleep and am crabby the next day - but only until I pick my iPad up and start reading again!

I was recently described by a reviewer as my writing style is Chick-Lit with an Edge. I liked that so much that that's the way I describe the genre I write.

My goal when writing is just to take people away from whatever is going on in their lives, even if it's only for a split second.

I'm a go with the flow sort of person and don't really take a course of action to get where I am going. I live in the moment and don't usually worry about tomorrow because whatever life is due to bring me, I'll be happy to accept.

I love my family and friends and will help anyway I can if someone needs it. Every Friday I spend it with my girlfriends where we have 'cake day', which usually consists of a yummy yet nutritious lunch, quickly destroyed by a delicious and devilishly good cake and a caramel latte.

I really don't like people that are nasty just because they can be, I don't believe that's necessary, I mean life is hard enough as it is!

Three things you need to know about me; 1 - I'm fiercely loyal and will bend over backwards to help. 2 - I love chocolate, like A LOT and 3 - I have a huge crush on David Gandy at the moment! (I mean, who hasn't, have you seen the man????)

Synopsis

I am not a good man.

I have lied and cheated and stolen. I've decided between life or death, like it was my due. None of it matters, not anymore. These are not my sins.

I see her raise her hands, the dark metal she's clutching reflecting the moonlight. Her finger trembles as she cocks the gun pointed at me. Her eyes are cold, determined, but I know.

I know her.

My name is Devon Andre and I confess my sin. I am not a good man because this is the woman I love.

She pulls the trigger.

* Standalone contemporary romance. * 

Mature reader advised due to sexual content and strong language.

Excerpt

“Fuck,” he curses, taking in the weapon. I squeeze it in my hand and try to swing again, letting him know I won’t give it up. “You’re going to hurt yourself.” He pries the shard out of my clenching fingers, and then puts his hand around my neck, squeezing. Warning. “You move, and I’ll fucking kill you,” he growls, strengthening his grip. I let my body go limp. He looks at his hand around my throat, and then his eyes find mine. I try to swallow, but he's practically suffocating me. He snatches his hand away and I gasp for air. “I didn’t even think of the fucking mirror,” he mutters to himself, sounding shocked, and maybe even a little impressed. He pulls out some rope from his back pocket. His fucking pocket. The man is psychotic.
