The Crown of Stones Complete TrilogyThe Crown of Stones Complete Trilogy by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Here is a little review of each amazing book of this trilogy.

This is the first book in this series by this truly talented author and I am telling you now I can’t wait for more. I was completely hooked from start to finish! I don’t want to go into too much detail about storyline as I don’t want to give too much away so I will just say that it is such an intricately woven and creative storyline, so packed full of action that you will not be able to resist turning page after page! I felt so fully immersed in this world. I truly could imagine everything that was happening and envision it so clearly thanks to the fantastic writing of this author. I can’t explain how or why it happened so quickly but Ian weaved his way into my heart right from the start and I know he will stay there for a very long time which is definitely not something I expected when starting a Fantasy series! If magic, adventure, intense drama and suspense are your thing then this series is for you!

I said it with the first Book and I will say it again I was completely hooked from start to finish! In fact I think this book had me even more hooked because i literally could not put it down. Again I don’t want to go into too much detail about storyline as I don’t want to give too much away but I will say we see Ian again after 2 years of being drugged, tortured and imprisoned. How quickly and completely this author gets me so fully immersed in this world is truly amazing. I could so easily imagine everything that was happening and envision it so clearly thanks to the fantastic writing of this author. I am not wasting a single minute before moving on to book 3.

OMG!! I thought the first two books had me hooked but damn this one REALLY kept me turning page after page and ignoring everything else around me! Sorry family LOL. I had to see how it would all turn out. I really went on a far more emotional rollercoaster then I would have initially expected from a Fantasy series. This author truly is AMAZING, creating characters, storylines and worlds that weave into your heart in totally unexpected ways. This should not be read as a standalone. You MUST start from the beginning of the series to fully enjoy this captivating, action packed world. You wont be disappointed in any way! Ian you will always hold a small piece of my heart.

Falling Down (The Rockstar Series) by Anne Mercier – Review by Deborah Joseph

/0 Comments/in /by

Falling Down (ROCKSTAR)Falling Down by Anne Mercier
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Lucy- actress, model, can play instruments and sing… Has family in the mafia that keeps her safe. Everything is basically handed to her on a silver platter with no hard work put in.

Jesse- a rockstar who Lucy has had a crush on since 7th grade.

Lucy is a fan girl of Jesse, literally even when she is 23 she still acts like a teenager around him. She meets him in an airport and gets his autograph and then years (6) later she is a dancer in one of his music videos. Even though they had only met that once he still remembered her and her name… weird…. She has no control over her emotions and even though she is some big actress she doesn’t know how to act normally around other stars?

I get this is fiction, really I do, but this book has no plot and doesn’t seem realistic AT ALL… which makes it harder to even relate with the MC and get sucked into the book.

Crush since 7th grade. Even reasoned with her cousin when they started seeing each other how she had been fantasizing about him since she was 12.
MFC is 23 but never says how old the MMC is… is this an age gap romance?
Any girl Jesse has slept with in the past are all “sluts” and “whores”… childish much? Oh wait, it gets better… any female who is not a family member are “sluts” and “whores” *Insert eye roll here*
Somehow throws a band together and makes an album in 10 days? I get it her rockstar boyfriend called in some favors to help her… but 10 days?!?! Okay!
Plus so much more! The sex scenes aren’t that great, so if you came for the smut this is not the one for you.

This book is a quick read but I just didn’t like it at all. I was trying to find another rockstar story to love like the first one I read… and this one just isn’t it! I will not be reading any of the other books in this series.

Ian Troy was born to a race of magical people. His lineage was to be a soldier. He fought to drive the Langorians from the land. What happens is a tragedy. Ten years later, will history repeat itself? This book is full of intrigue that keeps you guessing where the story will lead with battles being fought, who is truly an ally and who is a foe.

Flowers of Evil (Hani's Daughter Mysteries #1)Flowers of Evil by N.L. Holmes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first novel in the Hani’s Daughter series. This mystery series is set in Ancient Egypt. The author does an amazing job describing the sights and life of Ancient Egypt. Neferet and Bener-ib are both senets (healers). They have opened their own shop together. A dying man enters their shop and they can’t save him. He utters a single word before his death that sets off an investigation by the two women. The author includes a glossary of terms and a character directory which was very helpful. If you’re looking for an enjoyable cozy mystery this is it.

The Rebirth: Part One (Planet Amazon #0)The Rebirth: Part One by Crystal Dawn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

It all started with a book about the Amazon society and it’s advanced populace and technological domination, so when a chance to open a door to this almost magical place appeared, there was no other answer than yes, especially when the opportunity came up for actually going through it!

This was not the reality when opening her eyes for the first time after travelling through the doorway, however, a very friendly queen showed her their current society and what made it that way. As some things clicked into place and a new way of life was found, it also left more questions than answers, but at the same time, unconventionally comforting.

One surprise was the physical and emotional reaction to two men in particular, the desire and fate surrounding the inevitable was hard to resist, but will a way home be found and normality resumed, or will this way of life become something loved? This is a sci-fi romance with plenty of action and adventure throughout which will keep you rooted to your seat.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dark is the Wood is the first book in the Enchanted Tales with Dragon Scales series by Kristin Ward. Gillian’s brother has caught the illness that has taken the lives of many. She heads into the Shadowlands to find a way to save him. Getting kidnapped was not what she had planned. The world building was really good, but I was a bit disappointed with the characters. I like a good enemies to lovers story, but there was more enemies than lovers in this book. There were several aspects that I think were rushed when they shouldn’t have been. Overall I do think this was a great idea, and a worthwhile read. I plan to pick up the next book and also check out what else Kristin Ward has to offer.

What a sweet story. Claire, Alexis and David make a really cute “family” pair. Claire has her hands full and some tough decisions to make. She’s a tough woman. David knows what he’s getting into and asking. I really enjoyed reading this story and watching things work out for them. This story has beautiful writing. I really enjoyed how it was set up. The characters were developed perfect. This is a definite must read for romance readers who love family reads.

Great characters and a fun story! Everybody always dreams of a change in pace or a spontaneous shift in their everyday life. The main character in this story gets just that. A second chance, a chance to start over. And, coincidently, a chance to find love. Read this book if you love romance, fate, and happily ever after.

This book was just as good as Wrecked. I found myself diving right in. The writing is done to be very engaging. You are captured by the characters. I noted that the ones from Wrecked are intertwined in this one so the books are better read in order. The emotion of the story is felt as you are reading. As Fiend goes through his struggle, you can feel it. This is a powerful story.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

 

5 Stars

 

Soul Sacrifice by Courtney Davis is yet another example of why she is one of my favourite authors. I can’t believe more people haven’t heard about her books- because she really knows how to weave a fantastic tale. I have read most of her books now and just adore her work- she really is an amazing storyteller who produces fresh, original, and creative stories that fire my imagination and leave me wanting to stay in the ‘worlds’ and stories she creates. I have definitely developed an addiction to her work…
This a captivating urban fantasy with a dystopian setting/dystopian society, caste-like system, romance, very original premise, soul mates, agendas, danger, drama, high stakes, action, adventure, tension, intrigue, chemistry, suspense, a quest, gods, a soul curse, self-discovery, emotion, secrets/deception, betrayal, a race against time, politics/government conspiracy & control, the haves and have nots, and much more.
The world has been cursed by the gods. A society of Fullsouls, Halfsouls, and Nosouls- where Halfsouls not only need to find their soul fragment, but then battle it out for the chance of a Fullsoul life. Oh yeah- sign me up. I’m in. Ms. Davis had me completely captivated by the synopsis before I had even read one word.
Ebony is a Halfsoul who desperately needs to find the other part of her soul. But in the society she lives in, she practically has no rights, and will need some ‘expert’ help to track her soul-half down…. time is running out. The most successful searcher is Lark Duport and his team, and so Ebony seeks them out hoping they can help. But their initial ‘meeting’ doesn’t go so well, so it looks like she’s on her own in the search for her Halfsoul. But Lark has a change of heart and they are soon thrust into a dangerous adventure that neither could have really predicted. Things are not quite what they seem – and what they uncover has far reaching implications. What happens makes for a fascinating read. This is one adventure you won’t want to miss.
The story is told from multiple POVs, which gave me a deeper perspective of what was going on. I really would love to read more from this ‘world’, and characters, and find out what happens now that the ‘team’ have a better grasp of what happened/going on.
Highly recommended!!!
Can’t wait to see what Ms. Davis has in store for us next!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Courtney Davis!

The Crown of Stones Complete Trilogy by C.L Schneider is a fantastic way to discover this great series and author. The trilogy is beautifully bundled into this handy boxset so you can binge the entire trilogy with no wait between books. #winning #threebooksforthepriceofone
This is an intricately woven, action-packed high fantasy series- with a bit of a swords and sorcery feel, magic, adventure, intensity, drama, originality, brilliant world building, surprising developments, intrigue, suspense, and so much more.
I am a sucker for anything epic fantasy, so it was a no brainer when I discovered this series- grabbing a copy and immediately diving in. The story is darker than I had initially expected, with a raw grittiness that really gave it an extra element of interest. It is also a very imaginative and original take on epic fantasy- especially with the lore of magic being so unique to this series.
Ms. Schneider brilliant world building skills are really highlighted here- as the world is ‘alive’ and entirely realistic and believable- so richly painted with attention to detail to all the different races, histories, and culture/s.

-Magic Price (Book #1)
Ian Troy is a bounty hunter living a life of self-imposed exile. Living with the ghosts of the past which haunt his days and invade his nights. He single-handedly ended a war- but has been paying the price ever since. But when the past returns with a new threat against him, the land, and his people- Ian has no choice but to wield magic again. There is much at stake- but what will the price be this time?

-Magic Scars (Book #2)
The story starts off a couple of years after the events in book one. Ian Troy had been imprisoned, tortured, and drugged to suppress his magic. He is ‘battle-scared’, both physically and mentally. The world he returns to hasn’t fared much better than him- suffering at the hands of the new High King. Ian is the only hope of freeing the people, and so there is much at stake. He carries a heavy burden of responsibility but struggles to piece his life back together again after what happened. What about The Crown of Stones- and what of his connection to it? His addiction to magic is also a problem. So, he starts searching for the answers he needs- delving into the past to find them, where he uncovers ancient secrets that have shocking implications, not just for him, but for his entire race. What price will the magic cost him this time- and will he find the resolutions he is looking for?
Again, this is pretty dark and heavy- and I was left really feeling for Ian and what he had been through, and what was still left for him to endure.

-Magic Borne (Book #3)
This book sees the completion of Ian’s story- and what a journey it has been. Ian Troy had been through so much- and has borne the weight and price of the magic. All the pleasure, as well as the immeasurable guilt that has come with it. Ian wants a life of freedom- from slavery, suffering, and tyrannical rulers. Ian has carried a heavy burden, the hope of his people lies on his shoulders. So much hangs in the balance- and the outcome of his success. Ian has made some discoveries and finally learned what he has to do. He will need to destroy The Crown of Stones in order to free the people in the realm. Sounds pretty simple, right? But is it? And at what cost?

This is a fantastic story/series- really is epic, intriguing, unique and very creative. Ms. Schneider storytelling prowess is showcased beautifully in this series.
I really recommend this series to anyone who loves an epic, action-packed fantasy!
Happy Reading…

Thank you, C.L. Schneider!

Magic Price

So the first book I read in this series was actually book number 2. I knew I had to go back and read the first one. I’m glad I did. Although I found book to enjoyable the information in book 1 helped me make sense of a few things. This series is a page turner. The creative world the author has created is by far one of the best I’ve encountered. I enjoy fantasy books (one of my favorite genres to read), this exceeded my expectations. I feel like I’m completely submerged in their world as I’m reading. The magic used in the story is a different flavor than I’m used to but it made it more interesting. There is never a full moment when n this story. Each character is unique and adds to the story. Even the ones you despise. Please give this series a chance. You won’t regret it!

Magic-Scars

This is by far one of the best series I have ever read. The amount of creativity and originality that went into creating this book is amazing. I could not put it down. I fell asleep reading it and picked it up as soon as I opened my eyes. I rejoiced in the small victories and hurt when Troy experienced the losses. I felt a sense of pride as his character evolved and he embraced who he was (lineage) while maintaining who he wants to be (better than his father and all the leaders focused on being the most powerful). Especially after what he went through in prison. I was completely shocked with learning about the door opener Lirih. The characters are so greatly written that any loss felt like I lost them. I highly recommend this book. It’s full of action, steam, love, and magic.

Magic-Borne

*Sigh* This is a bittersweet moment. Sweet because I thoroughly enjoyed this installment. Bitter because it’s the last one. This final installment blew my mind away. Ian Troy and his friends must face fate to save everyone. But in doing so will Ian finally turn into the beast he’s fought so hard against? Will he succumb to magic and turn out just like his father? It was captivating and page turning. At times intense. I haven’t enjoyed such a good book in a very long time. It’s definitely worth a read.

Boxed Set

I love that this is now in a box set! Easy to read in order now!

Hope Collins has just broken up with her boyfriend and quit her job. She needs to get away for a vacation, or just start over new. What better way to do that than to find out that you’ve won a scuba diving resort in the Carribbean? Unfortunately, the previous owner has gone and left you to fend for yourself. She finds help along the way from staff members that have been working there. She also has a potential love interest when she meets the scuba diving instructor named Alex. He has also been hurt and has been surviving, not truly living. Could Hope be the one to help him be whole again? Alex and Hope were enjoyable characters and I enjoyed reading this story. I have always wanted to go to the Carribbean and the descriptions in the book make me want to go even more. I hadn’t planned on starting a new series but I will definitely be reading the other books to see what Hope and Alex get up to.

Falling Down (Rockstar, #1)Falling Down by Anne Mercier
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Falling Down is a well written spicy romance story that has a killer soundtrack that I highly recommend you play along to feel the rockstar vibe throughout this book.

Jesse is a mega hot rockstar that the main character, Lucy has crushed over since being a pre-teen. A chance meeting in a Chicago airport when she’s in her late teens proves to be a bit overwhelming but also a kismet moment. Sparks fly but the timing is all off so both go on with their lives; his as a rockstar and she becomes a Hollywood actress.

Years later she finds herself fresh off the set of a new movie and finding the acting gig has lost its luster. While she and her sister meet to do a surprise music video gig with a music producer friend, they find themselves once again face to face with Mr Rockstar himself and his band.

I think the book flows rather well making this an easy to read book that romance fans will thoroughly enjoy, spice and all.

I give this book 4 out of 5 stars.

Hope is in a predictable rut. Even her boyfriend Kyle had compared her to a favorite pair of slippers. Eek! That’s until a day that turns everything upside down. Going into a interview for a raise in job and pay turns into becoming the owner of a scuba diving resort. On the Caribbean!! Talk about a life change! She can hardly believe it, while she upgrades to first class on the way to take things over and meet her new life. Why not splurge? But she isn’t prepared for what awaits her and the complications ahead. Alex, a dive instructor at the resort Hope just inquired, is okay with his life. Things are okay given his past. Content to his life he’s existing day by day. But fates seem to through them together. Mishaps pulling them into each other baths while both searching for something. But can either one trust again? With each other’s baggage there might be to much past stuff. Can these two come together and move past their past? Trust can sometimes be the only way. Leap of faith into the unknown. I can not wait to read more in this series!! I honestly thought this book was part of another series, but as soon as I started reading I realized I was in for something new. Boy was I surprise and excited at the same time! PS. I am bad at looking at names when it comes to not only books or authors names. I know, I know. Bad. But hey I got a great knew series out of it!! So hey! Win in by book! 🙂

Once I decided to dive in, there was no going back. The author gripped my attention in the first few pages, and I couldn’t put it down! This was my first book by this author as well as the first book in the Planet Amazon series. I really loved this refreshing look on the world of Atlantis. This was a brilliantly written Sci-Fi Romance! Even if you think this book might not be for you, I highly recommend giving it a chance. It will probably surprise you and you’ll find yourself with your nose pressed to the pages just like I was. I cannot wait to read the next book in this series because I am addicted!

Since I hadn’t read anything by this author before, I wasn’t sure what I was getting into. I planned on just picking it up and reading a bit in my spare time here and there. It turned out to consume my entire day as I couldn’t put it down. This is the first book in the Half Moon Bay series, and I find myself already chomping the bit to pick up the next one! The characters are wonderfully relatable, and I found myself rooting for them from the very beginning. Hope and Alex have amazing chemistry, but they both also have a bit of baggage. The author does a marvelous job providing us with vivid imagery that transports you to a tropical island. Having quite a bit of scuba knowledge going into this book, I was thoroughly impressed by the accuracy that the diving scenes portrayed. I highly recommend picking this up if you tend to enjoy beachy contemporary romances!

Finding Hope: A Small Town Beach Romance (Half Moon Bay Series Book 1)

The book started in such a happy way. Hope was starting a new life in St. Croix after many years in Chicago, but how she got there was so very sad and we learn all about it.

Hope’s life was great until it wasn’t. She had a guy and a job with aspirations of moving higher up but that changes quickly. She leaves it all behind to go to Half Moon Bay

Alex hides a lot of his feelings, I think that is due to his time in the Navy and not showing weakness as a precaution. He loves his job and the Island and feels thrown off by Hope’s arrival for so many different reasons.

I have never left the US and would love to find a way to make a trip there. The island and people sounded absolutely wonderful.

I cannot wait to dive (pun intended) into book 2 in the series, and see what happens next.

Enter our mysterious stranger, who captures Morgan’s attention by telling her that she has a destiny, just like her aunt has told her time and time again. The story building and word building are absolutely phenomenal. Sarah had me sucked into her world she created from page one.

Picking Pismo was a wonderful story that gives you so much roller-coaster of emotions. Grief, love, a few secrets, friendships and never forget where you came from. When you lose someone in your life, sometimes you feel like it is hard to move past the ups and downs of that grief. Sisters, Claire and Alexis, need each other more than even after the loss of their mother. Claire takes over as guardian of Alexis, and she wonders if determination and strength are enough. When Claire meets David Clark, never expected to have feelings come into play, knowing that Claire and Alexis need to move on. As David gets to know Claire better, he has these fears and tries to breakdown the walls around his heart.

Both David and Claire have major reservations to continue with any romance, will apprehension come into play since Claire takes care of her sister and moving and also David has always self doubts when it comes to dating and relationships….be able to move forward together..

Definitely read and find out. This story is fantastic and my first book read by this author. I am excited to read more….

5 Star

The Crown of Stones: Magic-Scars (Book 2) by C. L. Schneider is a wonderfully written fantasy book. I’ve been patiently waiting for this installment of this Trilogy and to say I wasn’t disappointed is an understatement. I found myself lost in the pages and couldn’t stop reading till the end. I had to know what happens next. This story is the continuation of the first Book. Isn’t wakes up after being in prison for two years and has no clue who he is ,where is or even what is going on. He’s been tortured and drugged to keep his magic suppressed. Ian is really struggling to put his life back together and pick up the pieces ,he’s not the same man he was before. He’s there only hope but he has no memory from amnesia and the Crown is broken. Find out what happens next in this absolute must read. I can’t wait to dive into the next Book in this series. 5 Star

The Crown of Stones: Magic-Bourne is the third and final book in The Crown of Stones series. I’ve truly enjoyed this entire series and I’m a bit sad it’s finished but I’m definitely going to be reading more from this Author. This is a continuation of Ian’s story and is packed with action and danger. Once again I found myself lost in the pages and couldn’t put it down till the end. There’s some twists and turns that had me on the edge of my seat trying to figure out what happens next . Will Ian have the power and the will to change what needs to be changed ?Can he save them from the self appointed emperor? Find out what happens next in this Epic ending to an amazing trilogy. I can’t recommend this book/series enough you won’t be disappointed. I can’t wait to see what this Author has for next. I highly recommend reading this boxset.

I just love a good rockstar romance and you get 2 rockstars with this book. The author does a great job connecting the reader to the characters. It doesn’t take long reading and you are drawn in and don’t want to put the book down. I can’t said to read the additional books in this series

The Rebirth: Part One (Planet Amazon #0)The Rebirth: Part One by Crystal Dawn
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Andrea is a scientist who searches for Amazon and when further discovery is made in Atlantis, she ends up being transported to Amazon. She learns to be part of the Amazon world as they are in the midst of war and everyone has contributory efforts towards society. Also learning of the customs comes as quite of a surprise to her and finds herself very attracted to some of the Queen’s male slaves. All these new traditions and customs are making Andrea question the life she left behind on Earth of not having attachments and distancing from family. A new start could be a possibility at Amazon. I was hooked reading this book from the first chapter and look forward to reading the rest of the series!
