Review: Here Be Sexist Vampires (Deep In Your Veins, #1) by Suzanne Wright


Synopsis
Sam Parker is a vampire with a gift so strong and substantial that she is invited to partake in a test for a place in the Grand High Master Vampire’s private army. She finds that not only has the army never included a woman, but it has never included a Sventé vampire; a breed that is regarded by the super strong Pagori breed and the hypnotically beautiful Keja breed to be too tame and human-like. Most refuse to take her seriously, especially a Pagori commander named Jared who she craves in spite of herself.


The Grand High Master, however, sees her potential and offers her the position of Jared’s co-commander to help train the newest squad in time for the impending attack on his home. Sam has to demonstrate to Jared and the squad of chauvinists why it is incredibly foolish to underestimate a wilful, temperamental, borderline-homicidal Sventé female. 


Warning: This novel contains an iron-willed female vampire with an energy whip, a sexist male vampire who is determined to have her, explicit vampy sex, and a romance story with real bite.

My Review

4 Bite Me Stars!

Why haven't I heart of this series before? And this author?
This is my first book by Suzanne Wright and I really enjoyed more.Will definitely be reading more by her. It's been a while since I read any paranormal book and especially Vampire ones and I really needed a change and this one was just sitting in my kindle app, begging me to start it. I'm soo glad I did.


HBSV drew me in straight away and I was never bored. It's one of them books which makes you want to carry on, you need to know what will happen next. It's not just a paranormal romance its so much more.It has romance, humour, action and more. I loved the characters and can't wait to get to know them all better. Only weird thing I felt was the guys giggling LOL i just kept imagining them being all girly.

“So you’re prejudiced against women, young vampires, and against another breed of vampire. I bet you’re a delight to have around.”

Jared oh Jared! Sexist pig who made me laugh and want to smack him at times.Jared and Sam were awesome together, I could not get enough of their little arguments and banter.I'm glad it was written in dual pov I liked knowing both characters view and feelings about things, it helped a lot in matters. Jared and Sam felt the attraction as soon as they met yet they were both being stubborn.They are perfect for each other and even though they annoy each other at times, when anything bad happens they seek each others company or solace.


Jared’s lips were suddenly at my ear. “The only vampire who’ll be manhandling you tonight is me.” 


“If I let you.”


I want more! I will be reading the next book as soon as I am done with a few arcs!

Review: Seducing Destiny (The Fae Chronicles #4) by Amelia Hutchins

Book 1- Fighting Destiny- My Review
Book 2-Taunting Destiny - My Review
Book 3- Escaping Destiny- My Review


Synopsis
Less than six months ago my life was twisted and flipped on its side. Things have changed so much I barely recognize myself anymore. 

I am no longer an Enforcer. 

I am no longer a Witch. 

I no longer hate the Fae. (For the most part) 

And the sex-on-a-stick-gorgeous-Fae? He isn't really the Dark Prince. 

No, he is the father of my children and with the babies on the way, the land dying and the Mages closing in; alliances will have to be formed if we are all to make it through the war that is coming to our front door.

Between warring Gods and Goddesses, how are any of us supposed to win?

My Review

3.5 Stars!!

Before I start if you are reading this and haven't read the other books in this series please don't let this review or rating stop you because I absolutely loved all the previous books in this series. Like seriously they are awesome! So stop reading this review and go grab fighting destiny!



“I’ll spend eternity loving you, Synthia. And tormenting you in my bed, until you admit who your master is,” he finished.

“I have no master,” I whispered sleepily. “I’ll have a husband soon, and the love of my life. No master though,” I continued.
“I guess we’re not done here,” he replied roguishly.


I have been patiently waiting for this book and I was so excited when it was finally released. I needed my Ryder fix and I adore most the characters in this series, Ristan and the brother rock.I hear they are getting their own books which I will definitely be looking forward to reading. I was pretty disappointed with this one, I really wanted to love it like the rest but I just didn't feel the same as when I was reading the previous books. I think it may have been that too much was going on or the parts where it slowed down and I didn't feel like I was fully connected to the story.

The babies were adorable and I wanted there to be more just Syn, Ryder and the babies scenes.I don't know how to write this review to be honest.
Oh and Ristan's change broke my bloody heart!! Nooo not be awesome funny demon :( There are so many parts of this book so many stories intertwined and I want to kind of know everything all at once but my brain is like uhm no I don't think so!

”I knew I loved him, but love wasn’t strong enough to seduce destiny into giving us what we wanted. Danu kept telling me that destiny had to be won, that I wasn’t just born to it, and that I had to fight to get it.”


You see a totally different softer side to Ryder and how big events effect him. Aww Ryder! I liked him when he was a bit of an arsehole but he still has his dirty mouth ;) I was left wondering about different characters lives in this book. Usually the main focus is on Syn, Ryder and Ristan..well that's what I see but when this book finished I was left wondering about other characters and trying to see how their book would go, who are they really? whose head I'd like to be in.

Overall I still love this author for giving me these awesome Fae and this series! I won't give up on it, I will still be reading the last book and any other book Amelia releases. I hope you still give this one a chance you may love it ;)

”Forever will never be long enough with you.”

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 Blitz/Excerpt: Wicked (A Wicked Saga #1) By Jennifer L. Armentrout




Things are about to get Wicked in New Orleans.
Twenty-two year old Ivy Morgan isn’t your average college student. She, and others like her, know humans aren’t the only thing trolling the French Quarter for fun… and for food. Her duty to the Order is her life. After all, four years ago, she lost everything at the hands of the creatures she’d sworn to hunt, tearing her world and her heart apart.

Ren Owens is the last person Ivy expected to enter her rigidly controlled life. He’s six feet and three inches of temptation and swoon-inducing charm. With forest-green eyes and a smile that’s surely left a stream of broken hearts in its wake, he has an uncanny, almost unnatural ability to make her yearn for everything he has to offer. But letting him in is as dangerous as hunting the cold-blooded killers stalking the streets. Losing the boy she loved once before had nearly destroyed her, but the sparking tension that grows between them becomes impossible for Ivy to deny. Deep down, she wants… she needs more than what her duty demands of her, what her past has shaped for her.
But as Ivy grows closer to Ren, she realizes she’s not the only one carrying secrets that could shatter the frail bond between them. There’s something he’s not telling her, and one thing is for certain. She’s no longer sure what is more dangerous to her—the ancient beings threatening to take over the town or the man demanding to lay claim to her heart and her soul.

 Excerpt:

It was him. Green Eyes. Ren. That was his name. Now I remembered. I started to step forward, but he beat me to it. Moving as quickly as a damn snake striking, he caught my wrists. He didn’t yank my arms to my sides. All he did was hold my fists away from his face.
A lopsided grin appeared on those full lips. “Can’t say I’m entirely surprised you took a swing at me.”
“Then I guess this won’t surprise you either.” Leaning back, I shifted my weight onto my left leg, but again, Ren outmaneuvered me with a quickness that was sort of embarrassing.
He stepped into what would’ve been a fantastic kick and forced me back against the wall. Then there was nowhere to go, no space whatsoever. My back was against the building, and the entire length of his hard body was pressed against mine.
Son of a bitch.
As if he could read my mind, that grin spread and the dimples played peekaboo. “Now I think we can have a conversation without me ending up bloody.”
I blew out an aggravated breath. “I wouldn’t bet on that not happening.”
 He chuckled, and the sound rumbled through me. I couldn’t even remember being this close to a guy since . . . since Shaun. “Look, I’m sorry for snatching you off the street like a kidnapper, but you were about to make yet another huge mistake.”
His apology was lost on me. “Make another mistake?”
“Yeah, like the one last night that ended with you getting shot.” He dipped his chin, and the yellow glow of the light attached to the wall above us glanced off his broad cheekbones. “I know what you were about to do.”
 “I didn’t make a mistake last night. I was doing my job,” I spat. “And I doubt your job includes grabbing chicks off the street.”
 “That would be a hell of a lot more entertaining, but the moment you thought you could engage that fae last night, you made a mistake. And you were about to do it again, you little ass.”
“Little ass?” I sputtered. “You grabbed me off the street like a serial killer!”
“And I’ve apologized for that even though you should be thanking me. I just saved your life, sweetness.”
Floored, all I could do was stare at him for a moment. “You’re insane.”
“I’m a lot of things, but today I’m your fucking saving grace.”

Review: The New Devil in Charge (Devil's Eyes #6) by Jennifer Loren


Synopsis
Ryan has decided to build his own organization in a new city, away from the shadow of his brother, Nick. With the help of Elijah, Ryan is willing and anxiously ready to take on one opponent after another to take over his new city. There isn't much most can do to stop them; that is until one comes in contact with an elusive Lord of the 3rd, Marius Cane. Marius has been playing it quiet these days, a little too quiet, but his intentions begin to become clear when he purposely goes after Ryan and not Nick as everyone expected. “Where’s the Dragon, young Jayzon? You used him to kill Savage and in doing so, he is bound to you and I want him.” 

Does Ryan now hold the power of the Dragon? And if he does, will he be able to hold onto it or die much like his grandfather? 

There is no doubt that Ryan will fight and that he won’t be fighting alone.

My Review

5 I-LOVE-THIS-SERIES Stars


Okay when I heard that The Remedy would be the end of the Devil's Eyes series I was quite upset..quite upset being an understatement.I didn't want the series to finish and I will always want more.ALWAYS! But then Jennifer Loren announced that there would be more to this series and I was like WHAT?! Hell yeah!Oh btw I get this news way before everyone else..not that I'm bragging or anything.Just putting it out there ;) I love being in JL's street team! So whilst I was screaming and doing a happy dance JL was writing away another master piece.This book was awesome, I need more..like yesterday woman!

This book kind of breaks off from Nick and his side of things.He is still in the book but its main focus is Ryan and Elijah.I love how other people's povs are cleverly placed which gave me a better idea of what is going on yet, the povs, they don't overwhelm you.

Ryan has always lived in Nick's shadows, he loves him and looks up to him but he needs to move on and pave his own path. So even though moving away from the family is tough he decides its time to take over a new place and be his own boss.Make his own rules.And to help out he has Elijah and an unexpected bodyguard, Skylar.


"My Lord," She says, bowing to me.

"Oh son of a bitch," I grumble

Skylar is a women out to prove herself.By guarding Ryan she wants to show that women aren't weak and they can handle the tough life. Before she gets to where Ryan is now living she thinks she has it all figured out, she thinks Ryan has been spoiled and rich all his life and he will behave just like all other Savages.But when she gets there she finds out how wrong she is.There is alot more to Skylar we discover as the story continues..


'I can't stop staring at his penis and it begins to make him nervous.

"Baby, are you planning to cut me dick off or something, cause you are making me really nervous staring at it like you are?"

Ryan doesn't need anyone to protect him especially not a hot, annoying woman he can't keep his eyes off.I loved Ryan and Skylar's parts maybe a littllleeeeee bit more than Eli and Catriona's parts.They were hilarious together and well that's Ryan ahh I fell more in love with him! Maybe its because we already had the Eli and Cat thing going on in previous book so this was something new and I just wanted to keep reading their parts.

“Hmm… should I follow alongside or get in with you?” “Follow alongside? Who are you, Usain Bolt? Get in the damn car.” She nods..

Elijah and Catriona have their own problems along with helping Ryan out.Eli is determined to love Catriona and give her everything she wishes for but things aren't that easy. His humour was as always present and I loved that about him.

"Actually, the best part was when we stopped running and Eli asked me to hold his boob while he pulled up his stockings."

Hahaha I loved this part of the book and their funny stories. Could not contain my laughter.

We meet new people, lose some old people, discover new secret, betrayals and twists! I laughed out loud..whilst everyone sleeping I'm sure if everyone was awake they would be like, what a weirdo but they weren't so hah!Highly recommended series sooo go get started on the previous books if you haven't already ;)

Omg the ending!!!! I was like YES YES!!!!!! HELL YEAH.I wanted to scream because I had so much feelings and I wanted to discuss..but my friends haven't even read it yet so i just hi5'd myself and tried keep my emotions in lock. The sad truth. I want more.When can I get more?

Oh and I won a paperback so it shall be hugged and it will sleep with me.There may even be stroking ;)

Release Blitz: Darkest Before Dawn (A Guardian's Diary Book 1) By Amelia Hutchins





Synopsis
Going through an apocalyptic event doesn't mean the end of the world. 


My dad is a modern day Noah, you know building an ark, trying to save folks and getting my brother, and I ready for the impending end of days – whatever that means. 


Nothing in his prepper manuals had us ready for what actually happened. 
I had nothing to prepare me for Jaeden and Lachlan. Heck, I don’t know of any girl that would have been prepared for those two.



There was nothing to prepare us for the things that go bump in the night or zombies, although now that I think on it, zombies might have been easier to deal with than what really happened. No, an apocalyptic event is just a set-up for things in our world to be shaken AND stirred. 


What will rise from the ruins remains to be seen.

My Review

5 Brilliant, I-Want-More Stars!!


'Why do I believe her to be mine and I hers when she is supposed to be my enemy?'

So it took me a while to get round to this one and wait wait before you all attack me ..It's only because I really, really didn't want this series to finish! But then Jennifer Loren gave me some amazing news when she revealed that there would be more! Yes baby! I was over the moon and thought well now I can read it. This is book 5 in the Devil's Eyes series by Jennifer Loren and what a book is was. JL you never disappoint!

"This fallen angel may be stained, but don't be fooled.I am not broken.I will be the remedy to your poison, Asmodeus."

This book continues from where the last last book finished. You find out that somehow Kayla carries the key to getting Nick back from his grandfathers clutches.Nick has been poisoned and he doesn't remember Kayla or any of his family anymore.He is ready to kill anyone who goes against Dennis not knowing that his grandfather is making him hurt his own family and friends.

One thing I love about this series is that it has it all, entertainment, drama, suspense, action, thrills, humour and so much more. I love each and every character (the good ones obviously).Dennis Savage the things I wanted to do to you..no for all the perverts reading this and thinking its all sexual.NO. I wanted to kill this man in so many different ways.He had my blood boiling, why Dennis are you such a pig?

"I know you can't take your eyes off me.I get it but I have some things I need to take care of.You can undress me with your eyes when I get back later.."- Elijah

We got to see a lot more of Elijah awww I already liked him in from the glimpses we got in the previous books but this one made me love him more.I just wanted to squeeze him! I'm happy he finally found someone and now its Ryan's turn. I'm hoping Ryan finds his happily ever after in the books to come because he truly deserves it. There were a lot of funny parts as well as the serious bits and how everything was going to work out, how to get Nick back and protect the family.

"Oh, be nice, tall unpleasant one.I will look at your breasts next if you want?" I say rubbing his chest.- Elijah

I felt like this book was too short because I just can't get enough of these books and series.One minute I started it and next minute finished..What is this sorcery!! LOL I finished this in one go and stayed up late because I could not put it down.And now I want more soo..hurry with the spin-off woman ;)
