Review: Bound in Evil by Marie Rose Dufour

Goodreads Summary:
For hundreds of years, evil is trapped beneath the ground. It never sleeps. It only waits to return.
A man turns his back against his magical family a long ago and the prophecy predicting a powerful witch with green eyes will release the imprisoned evil into the world. Nathaniel Caswell is determined to avoid the prophecy and the sexy new woman in town who could be his salvation or his downfall.
Meg Costa didn’t realize when she left her urban guidance counselor job for one on the sleepy coast of Massachusetts that she would catch the attention of the sexy green eyed sheriff and be thrown in the middle of a battle between good and evil.
Destiny throws these two together and along with the rest of the magical community, they need to figure out a way to save themselves and the world from being plunged into darkness forever.

My Thoughts:
Wow! I was immediately pulled into this world and found myself completely spellbound. I couldn't pull myself away for more than a few minutes at a time.
The characters, Nate and Meg, are fated to be lovers. They both have the most amazing eyes. Nate's being a vibrant green and Meg's are an ice blue. That was one physical characteristic that really stuck out. Together they make a quite a pair.
There are four other characters that I am hoping will pair off in coming books. I am certainly looking forward to it!
In this book there was romance, mystery, a bit of action and all surrounded by magic. It was an all around excellent story. I am very excited to know what is going to happen next!
*I recieved this book for review but that has in no way effected my opinion.*

Review: Born Again In Dreams (Born Vampire #3) by Cynthia Arsuaga

Goodreads Summary:

The Master of His Domain

Sorin Bochinsky, Master and Commander of the Eastern European Blood Family, controls everyone and everything around him, except the woman of his dreams with the face of an angel prevents his needed rest. She’s the light to his dark, scarred and pained existence. The search begins to find her before he goes insane.

An Angel Awakens

Merliah Travers suffered more than serious injuries from a car accident over four years ago. She awakens in a place where the pain and scars have hidden her away from the world. A fantasy lover leads her out of the darkness and into the light, then discovers a special ability acquired during the coma has put her in danger with a fanatic killer.

Two lost, scarred souls battle a psychopath and their inner demons to unite as one, to never be alone, and be born again in dreams, forever.

My Thoughts:

This is the third book of the series and I loved it! Sorin is my favorite guy so far, I just loved him and how he kept fighting for what he wanted. I really liked Liah too, and it isn't often that I like the heroine as much as the hero.

Liah's ability involving her paintings was completely fascinating! It was definitely a very original twist. I am hoping we get to see this couple again. I want more Sorin!

Review: Drama Queens with Love Scenes by Kevin Klehr

Goodreads Summary:

Close friends Allan and Warwick are dead. They're not crazy about the idea so to help them deal with this dilemma are Samantha, a blond bombshell from the 1950s, and Guy, an insecure angel.

They are soon drawn into the world of theatre - Afterlife style, with all the bitchiness, back-stabbing and ego usually associated with the mortal world.

Allan also has a secret. He has a romantic crush on his friend, Warwick, but shortly after confiding in his new angel pal, his love interest falls for the cock-sure playwright, Pedro.

Not only does Allan have to win the heart of his companion, he also has to grapple with the faded memory of how he actually died.

My Thoughts:

Once I got started reading I had trouble putting this one down. Lots of drama and tension. I had to keep reading and see how these guys ended up...

I wanted Warwick and Allan both to just reach out and grasp what was right in front of them. All through the book, I was on a rollercoaster right along with Allan. The ups and downs, highs and lows. So much heartache and *sigh* I just wanted him find his "happy".

I think everyone should give this story a go. It truely is a riviting read that is sure to hold your interest.

*I recieved this book for review but that has in no way effected my opinion.*

I read this book in practically one sitting. I was quickly drawn into the amazing world that Infinity is frim. Shifters and Vampires and Valkyries oh-my! I mean really what is there not to like?

I really enjoyed all the different characters. I am excited to see what turns the next book will hold as there were certainly some twists in this one that I was not expecting.

I was shocked that the book ended, I was so into the story I wanted more! I can not wait for the next book it is sure to be enthralling!

Review: Breach by K.I Lynn

Blurb:

Delilah Palmer has control of her life and outward personality, blocking the truth just below the surface. A façade meant to be normal and hide the scars of her childhood. She’s made a good life for herself, became a lawyer, and is free from the tortured past that haunts her daily. Until he comes along and breaks open the cracks.

Nathan Thorne has a past of his own. On the surface he is loved by all, personable, extroverted; everything Delilah isn’t. Hidden beneath is a dark and tormented man that only Delilah has to power to unveil.

Crammed in a small office together they see through each other’s masks, and the draw becomes too much, igniting an explosive relationship. Holloway and Holloway Law has a strict non-fraternization policy, forcing them to conceal their breach. Despite their efforts, separation becomes impossible, deceptions escalate, and Nathan has trouble coping; teetering on the edge of being overtaken by his past demons.

What secrets does he harbor that could keep him from giving in? What keeps him from healing and moving forward? And Delilah, where does she fit into all this turmoil?

Can they accept love and deal with all the trials that come their way when secrets are exposed? Or will they fall through the cracks of their pasts and be consumed by all that haunts them?

Author Bio:

K.I. Lynn spent her life in the arts, everything from music to painting and ceramics, then to writing. Characters have always run around in her head, acting out their stories, but it wasn’t until later in life she would put them to pen. It would turn out to be the one thing she was really passionate about.

Since she began posting stories online, she’s garnered acclaim for her diverse stories and hard hitting writing style. Two stories and characters are never the same, her brain moving through different ideas faster than she can write them down as it also plots its quest for world domination…or cheese. Whichever is easier to obtain… Usually it’s cheese.

My Thoughts:

Wow! So this started out smoking hot and just got hotter! I was totally wrapped up in the story from the minute I started until it was over.

Nathan and Lila are a disaster waiting to happen. All through the book I was just waiting for one or the other to completely snap. Both characters have been dealt a really shitty hand and have tried (well, sort of...) to make the best of it. They have extremely rough yet very HOT sex. They both fight their "relationship" tooth and nail all the way.
I loved the book, but I need more NOW! I was left with my mouth open in shock! Yes it will leave you hanging, but it is so worth reading! I highly recommend this title!

**I recieved this book for review, but that has in no way effected my opinion.**
