About Downfall:

“Frankie’s cousin wants her to do three things this year:
1. Lose her inhibitions
2. Do something spectacularly stupid
3. Fall madly in love
Travelling was Frankie’s life. As the daughter of a big-name evangelist, she’s been able to feed her hunger for new sights throughout most of her teenage years. Then a hushed-up scandal gets her thrown off the tour circuit and stuck at her uncle’s house in the town of Augur’s Well.
Forced to repeat her failed senior year, it looks like a dismal existence for Frankie—until she’s invited to the bizarre meeting place of four mismatched people … and falls hard for the fascinating, secretive Cain Aleister.
Furtive meetings in an underground chamber … Latin words carved into a stone wall … intense desire … and a secret so elusive she’ll do almost anything to bust it open. Until now, Frankie never believed in grand passions—but that’s not the only one of her beliefs about to implode right before her eyes.
Looks like Frankie’s going to score three for three.”

 

My Five Star Review:

Six words, “Hey Frankie, come for a ride?” That was all it took in the very first chapter, Omen, to get me completely and totally hooked on this book.  Those six words started my sleepless night and I ended up with the biggest book hangover.  Yes, it was that intriguing.  From the very beginning SD had me wondering what the heck was going on.  I tried desperately to figure it out but every time I thought I had it, SD threw me a curve ball.  Her characters are well developed, her descriptions are so detailed you can actually see each scene unfold in your mind and when secrets are finally revealed it’s an “oh wow” moment.

There are several pieces of art work in the book  by Trevor O’Sullivan that are truly stunning.

By the time I reached the last chapter, Amen, I was totally addicted to this series and was very grateful the next installment would be out in March 2016.

Wicked Edge (The Realm Enforcers Book 2) by Rebecca Zanetti

Book Reviews, Series Books,

wicked edge

An absolutely amazing second book in The Realm Enforcer series which is a spin-off of Rebecca’s Dark Protector (DP) series.  You can certainly read this series without having read the DP series, but I would highly recommend reading it.  Many of my old favorites from DP make an appearance in this new series.  Wicked Edge is a paranormal romance intended for readers 18 and over.

About Wicked Edge:

“Daire Dunne is more than ready to take a quick break from his duties as a Coven Nine Enforcer. When he spots a sexy blonde across a Titan’s of Fire party, it’s not long before she’s on the back of his Harley on the fast track to his apartment. Unfortunately, one overheated kiss in, the woman drugs Daire and steals valuable files that can’t fall into enemy hands. The second he comes to, the hunt is on…
Now that Cee Cee has the information to take down an enemy that destroyed her family, she can implement her perfect plan for revenge. Nothing will stop her, not even a shockingly sexy enforcer barging into her life. Not even the spectacular, fire-branding sex engulfing them. But if Daire ever figures out who her family really is, all bets are off…”

My Five Star Review:

Book 2 starts where book 1 left off so definitely pick up Wicked Ride and read it first.  This series revolves around the Dunne brothers, Daire, Adam and Kellach (main character in Wicked Ride.) The brothers happen to be witches and Enforcers for the Coven Nine.  They are sent to Seattle to infiltrate a Motorcycle Club, find the manufacturer of the deadly drug (Apollo) currently being sold to humans and being used against witches.

From the very first chapter, I knew Daire was in deep trouble.  He meets Cee Cee at the MC bar, falls pretty hard basically at first sight, takes her back to his penthouse for a little Dunne style loving and ends up being drugged by the beautiful blonde.  Yep, strong, determined, powerful, beautiful, Cee Cee had me moving right on to chapter 2.  By the time I reached Chapter 9, I was absolutely in love with Daire and I wanted to be strong, determined, Cee Cee.  Then one word was said at the end of Chapter 9 and I just about dropped by Kindle.  I honestly did NOT see that coming.  Bravo to Rebecca and this amazing twist of fate.  At this point, I couldn’t help but consume the rest of the book.

In true Rebecca style, this book is fast paced, action packed, filled with special appearances by the characters I love in the DP series and of course a happily ever after.  I’ve already pre-order my copy of the next book, Wicked Burn.

The Rift (The Seventh Book 2) by SD Wasley

Book Reviews, Series Books, Young Adult Books, ,

the rift

 

Brilliant, Action Packed, Amazing, second book in The Seventh series by SD Wasley that leaves you desperately wanting Book 3.  You absolutely need to read The Seventh before you take on this book.  (Young Adult 14+)

My Five Star Review:

The Rift starts where The Seventh leaves off.  Mimi is finally happy with her life.  She has good loyal friends she thought she would never have, she has a boyfriend and she’s enjoying her new school.  All is going so well; the kids are developing their gifts but then one of the extraordinary seven is no longer with them.  All of their gifts go a little crazy and nobody can figure out why.  In order to solve the problem, the kids develop a plan that makes you scream into your book, NO!!!   Then the ride starts, the action begins, secrets are discovered and your left breathless and wanting more by the end of the book.

If you enjoy a really well written young adult book filled with a paranormal science fiction feeling, then pick up both The Seventh and The Rift today.

 

About The Rift: 

“She finally got things together. Mimi’s dating a hot guy and has a place in the school’s Gifted Program with her awesome friends. Yes, she still attracts the dead. But there’s only one ghost these days, and he doesn’t seem to have an awful lot to say.
Just when Mimi’s life is looking pretty good for the first time in years, the unthinkable happens … one of the seven gifted teens is torn from their close-knit group. The unity of their circle shattered, things begin to go terribly wrong. It’s ruining their focus—and with the threat of the Astarion cult growing stronger each day, the gifted seven need all the focus they can muster.
In The Seventh, Mimi found her place in a circle of seven extraordinary teenagers. In The Rift, she must face what happens when the circle of seven is broken.”

by S.D. Wasley

Release Date: January 7, 2016

Summary:

From Amazon bestselling author S.D. Wasley comes her first work of (new) adult paranormal romance perfect for lovers of Lauren Kate’s Fallen and the Richelle Mead’s Bloodlines series.

Frankie’s cousin wants her to do three things this year:

1. Lose her inhibitions
2. Do something spectacularly stupid
3. Fall madly in love

Travelling was Frankie’s life. As the daughter of a big-name evangelist, she’s been able to feed her hunger for new sights throughout most of her teenage years. Then a hushed-up scandal gets her thrown off the tour circuit and stuck at her uncle’s house in the town of Augur’s Well.

Forced to repeat her failed senior year, it looks like a dismal existence for Frankie—until she’s invited to the bizarre meeting place of four mismatched people … and falls hard for the fascinating, secretive Cain Aleister.

Furtive meetings in an underground chamber … Latin words carved into a stone wall … intense desire … and a secret so elusive she’ll do almost anything to bust it open. Until now, Frankie never believed in grand passions—but that’s not the only one of her beliefs about to implode right before her eyes.

Looks like Frankie’s going to score three for three.
