Review: All Wound Up by Jaci Burton

Posted September 3, 2015 by Lucy D in Book Reviews, Sports / 1 Comment

This was my first Jaci Burton story and I really liked it. I have given away several paperbacks featuring Ms. Burton and I need you all to return them to me. (Kidding. Just kidding. 🙂 ) I liked the characters of Tucker and Aubrey. We also meet a few of Tucker’s brothers and the players from the team who were the subject of the other books. I will be taking a first read at the next Jaci Burton book that comes my way before I give it away. If I ever get the time (ha, ha), I may just pick up the prior books in this series.

This is the final book of Nightwalker/World of Nightwalker series might have been about bringing both worlds of Nightwalkers together and destroying the god, Apep, before he enslaves the human race, but I enjoyed the enjoyed the romance between the most hated Bodywalker and the half-wraith, Vieve, the most.

[box style=”rounded” border=”full”]In her first contemporary story, Sara Humphreys proves that she doesn’t need to hide behind the gimmick of vampire teeth and magic to write a good story. Brave the Heat is a sweet romance which focuses on getting past the fears of the past so that you can grab hold of the future […]

Review: Archangel’s Enigma by Nalini Singh

Posted August 24, 2015 by Lucy D in Book Reviews, Paranormal Romance, Urban Fantasy / 1 Comment

The Guild Hunter series is another of my favorite series. Naasir is one of those special characters that make you cheer when he shows up. His behavior is odd but always interesting and so far, keeps you guessing why he is so different. This story was very exciting and I’m happy that he was given a HEA, but he is not your typical romance hero.

Review: Badlands by C.J. Box

If you liked Fargo, either the movie or the TV series, you will like the writing of C.J. Box. This was my first novel from this author and at the very least, I want to read the prior novel, The Highway. Be warned, just like Fargo, it doesn’t hold back on the violence.

Review: Shadow Strike by Dianne Duvall

Posted August 6, 2015 by Lucy D in Book Reviews, Paranormal Romance / 7 Comments

I love this series and it truly just keeps getting better and better with each book. The Other is no longer plotting against just the Immortal Guardians. Now they are looking to start the apocalypse. Priorities have changed. It’s no longer just about keeping the vampires and the Immortals a secret. Can the Guardians stop the plot to end the world before it’s too late?

Review: Toxic by Kim Karr

I had a difficult time getting into this story. Rich girl meets poor boy. Hides who she is and gets mad when he disappears from her life. They reconnect but she doesn’t trust him. But–but she’s the one who lied. I had little sympathy for Phoebe and a hard time connecting with her.

I was asked to be part of the blog tour for Book 2, Fighting Shadows, and the story intrigued me so I agreed. When I looked into the series, I just had to start with Book 1, Fighting Silence. I was overwhelmed by the story of love and family, and their struggle to keep this family together.

Wednesday, July 22nd, was a beautiful summer day in New York. The sultry heatwave of the prior weekend was broken by a storm on Tuesday. Although temps were in the mid-80s, it wasn’t a bad day for strolling around Manhattan. The Romantic Writers Association book signing was scheduled to begin at 5:30 down in Times […]
