I was trying to figure out how I would get Amid the Winter Snow for review. And then Thea Harrison sent it to me! I am so, so thrilled! This group of authors is outstanding. I had read almost everything by Thea Harrison and Elizabeth Hunter. I wanted to try Grace Draven and Jeffe […]
Wanted & Wired was the start of the Tether series, which might be in my paranormal romance category since the Perfect Gravity goes on to another couple, but it is also very science fiction. The world building is rather post-apocalyptic. The political environment with the governments keeps one guessing what will […]
I listened to The Beautiful Ashes as a “reread” right before getting The Sweetest Burn. I was able to get both in digital audio from the library. I was excited to see how they progressed with finding the second artifact. I expected Ivy […]
To think I used to say I didn’t like fantasy, especially historical fantasy. Of course, The Embraced series is not your typical historical fantasy, because it is also paranormal romance. I was sent the original book, How to Tame a Beast in Seven Days by the publisher. What a happy surprise it […]
Oh. Oh. I just got caught up. I was only one book behind, so I read The Staff and the Blade. And I’m so glad I did. Damien and Sari have such a long and winding road. It is a very lengthy book and yet it doesn’t seem […]
I won Wanted & Wired in an April prize pack of 8 books from the publisher, Sourcebooks Casablanca. They all look interesting but I started here. This is a very different story with a bit of everything. There is science fiction, romance, action / suspense, and paranormal aspects. The world is […]

The audio was wonderful and Mia Barron captured the humor and banter so well. Her voice has an odd quality to it which took a minute to understand but then it felt right, becoming a perfect part of the experience. She did alter voices somewhat for characters but overall she was Cat’s voice and […]
I have loved the Irin Chronicles and while this was meant to be only a trilogy, readers will be happy to learn there will be more writing about this world. The world building is very different and exciting. The settings are worldwide, but a primary location is Istanbul, Turkey and Vienna, Austria. The locations lend some spice to an […]
