Seal Wolf In Too Deep – Not Deep Enough To Hold Interest

Filed under: Book Reviews — Leave a comment
February 15, 2016

Don’t remember if I read Terry Spears before, but “Seal Wolf In Too Deep” took me a while to finish it. As much as I love reading paranormal, this Navy SEAL shifter Allan Rappaport and his human partner Debbie Renaud somehow did not set the pages ablaze.

Few know that paranormal and humans co-exist and Allan makes sure that his secret is safe. Working as a police diver and with a human partner makes things difficult, as a rogue werewolf seems to be targeting his kind, and his feelings for Debbie dig deeper into his heart.

The storyline is good, except I felt the writing was not up to par as it did not draw me into the story. The scenes, the danger and the passion really did not touch keep me enthralled and the both the characters lacked chemistry.

Savannah Stuart/Katie Reus is another brilliant writer I follow, quenching my thirst for he paranormal and the suspense. Miami Scorchers Series is just another one of her fabulous writings. Who can resist the alpha shifters and their intended mates?

February 8, 2016

Savannah Stuart’s Crescent Moon Series is another scintillating series of shifters and their intended mates, loyalty and support to the pack, protecting and guarding the secrets of their lives.

ToCatchHisMate-CrescentMoon5-KatieReus

“To Catch His Mate” takes alpha Reece O’Shea running after his intended mate, pack princess Alyssa Clare. Even though the alliance may seem to have been set up to strengthen the ties between the two packs, Alyssa falls in love with Reece and vice versa. But misunderstanding has Alyssa running away forcing Reece to follow her and win back his mate.

As always Savannah Stuart keeps the adrenaline pumping, the pace a steady narration of love and passion, forgiveness and understanding, and an alpha claiming his mate no matter what. Another short and entertaining reading filled with action and passion!

Midnight Run – Danger In The Shadows

Filed under: Book Reviews — Leave a comment
January 28, 2016

This Midnight Series is one of my super favorite go-to series and have read each book released numerous times and I never get bored! Lisa Marie Rice writes some enthralling and captivating romantic suspense and this series cannot be missed.

MidnightRun-MidnightSeries-LisaMarieRice

“Midnight Run” comes out as part of the Midnight Trilogy and many may have already read it. Then again I’ve never had trouble reading it for the nth time and enjoying Claire and her alpha Bud.

Getting a second lease of life gives Claire Parks the freedom to explore the world that she had missed and re-discover herself to the pleasures of life. And if giving herself to a hot lumberjack then so be it. As an undercover detective Bud Morrison is trained to fight the hidden dangers and protecting is his in his every breath. Claire brings out his full protective instincts and he sure as hell not going to let her fall on his watch.

As their passion ignites the sheets and they fall in love, circumstances and a past evil threaten their newfound happiness. With Claire fighting for her rights in the relationship, Bud has to decide if he can meet her halfway to get the woman of his life.

Short but captivating, Lisa Marie Rice gives her readers an adrenaline ride of danger and passion, love and support, giving importance to relationships and friends. The Midnight series may connect the events and characters in each story, but each of them can be read a standalone.

Smoldering Hunger – Love And War Simmer

Filed under: Book Reviews — Leave a comment
January 25, 2016

The Dark Kings of the Realm are going through a major upheaval as their secrets have being aired to the mortals and the impending war just seems to bubble slowly to a boiling point.

Amidst the war, the Dragon Kings seem to find love and passion. As each Dragon King finds his mate, the forces of evil refuse to stay in the shadows even as the powerful forces of the realm seem to take sides.

SmolderingHunger-DarkKingsDarius-Jan2016

Darius has come from his mountain to fight the evil and not fall in love. Yet the sensual Dr. Sophie Martin leaves him no choice as he falls head over heels for her. As the passion between them smolder the sheets catching their hearts on fire, shadows of evil seem to edge closer to the Dark Kings, with some of their very own playing a game of chess.

“Smoldering Hunger” gives Darius his mate, but it also puts Sophie directly into the path of Ulrick and his games. As each book gives a Dragon King his love, it also takes us one step closer to the war that seems to be inevitable. As Ulrick seems to be pulling the strings, it is yet to be seen who really will emerge as the King Of Kings, Constantine or Ulrick.

I love the way Donna Grant makes sure that each book has a brief history of the past and connecting to the present for new readers. The books don’t have to be read in sequence, or read at all to follow their journey. But then who can resist these powerful Dragon Kings as they vow to keep their love safe and protect the innocent.
