My rating: 4 of 5 stars

“Sashimi” is the second book of the “Evil Sushi” series by C. A. King. I was glad I did some research and read “Evil Sushi before reading this book. I would have been lost trying to figure out what was going on. This book picks right up when the first leaves off. The action continues in this story as we learn more about the characters. There are defiant unexpected twists and turns in this book. I will be picking up the next installment of this story. I have to know what happens next.

This was a really entertaining read and one that I really enjoyed. It might have been one of this authors shorter reads but it definitely didn’t have anything missing. It was a page turner from the very beginning. I loved the characters especially Spring she was so great to read about. I loved the uniqueness of the storyline and the quirkiness that I have come to expect from this author.
This was a wonderful paranormal romance comedy read, one that I would highly recommend and the start to series I can’t wait to read more from.

This book had the things that I love and needed on a rainy gloomy day. Romance, humor, beloved characters that we already know and love. This is the first book in a new four book series, one for each season. I enjoyed this short story and it made my day, this author never fails to engage me in the characters and root for the happy ending.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Talk about a fun ride! I thoroughly enjoyed the story and the characters; and I don’t even like fishing!
We start off in a world not to different from a possible future for ourselves in which food has become scarce and fish became a commodity that we over-exploited to the point where there are almost none left. When a commercial group comes through the small town of Treacle and uses explosives to “fish” they open up the ocean floor. Our Main characters Rod, a fisherman and tinker/genius, and Ned, old-school sea-dog fisherman. Head out to fish and use some of the technology that Rod has cobbled together to try and make a haul. Upon discovery of a fissure that the explosions opened up in the oceans floor, they manage to make a massive discovery and a catch. They bring their catch home to Ned’s place where his daughter and Rod’s love interest Sally also lives. The fish are something none of them have ever seen before and seem to be a miracle and the answer to their prayers.
Letting the potential money go to his head Ned lies and through some actions the fish get sold to a corporation who, of course, take the lot. The fish cause a potential pandemic, and of course there has to be a huge ancient evil from the depths to make this a true story. Add in the military, government, and corporations to the mix and you have yourself a nice mix to make sure you are screaming at your book that they could have solved this easily “If only they stopped being dumb!”.
You are really in for a great ride with some awesome characters. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series!

I have read a few books from this author and she continues to blow my mind at how she writes. I have not read a good paranormal book in a long time so when I saw this book I had to read it. This is the first book to the romantically season series and it was a great start. I could not put this book down until the end. It only took me a little over a day to devour this magical story.

Eros is way down the pole when it comes to all the gods. He knows that he has the best powers making humans fall in love. Eros is told to make two strangers fall and love which he took the challenge. Will Eros succeed his mission or will he fail?

I loved this story. Eros, the Valentine’s Day God, has a bet with Mother Nature to prove that his job isn’t that easy. She soon finds that it isn’t. Spring is a nursery owner, Alex is her delivery guy. They have know each other since they were kids. They have yet to acknowledge the chemistry between them. She goes out with singer turned author Luke. Can we say disaster? Meddling Mom? I don’t I’ve laughed that hard in a while. You really should read this story. The story is entertaining and humorous. The characters are quirky, funny, and learn that life is too short to be serious. Have some fun. Mother Nature learns an important lesson. The tone is what makes the story. I was totally sucked in because Eros started with narrating the story and he sucks you right in. Highly recommend.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Spring’s Showers is the first book in the Romantically Seasonal series. Often accused by the other gods of having an easy job, Cupid has challenged four of them to successfully bring one couple together each. In this book, it’s Mother Nature’s turn to show just how simple matchmaking can be. Or, possibly, how difficult.
This is a fun romance with a gentle supernatural side. Mother Nature’s search for love takes her to a small, unassuming town where her green fingers land her a job at a horticultural nursery. There’s a fun cast of characters she meets along the way – I particularly like Phoebe, the young assistant at the nursery, and Alex’s dad with his novelty slippers.
This is a four-book series, and the rest of the series is out already so I’m looking forward to reading through them in the near future! It gets five stars from me. I would recommend it if you like stories with meddling gods and are in the mood for something light and entertaining.

Wow this is just as good as the first book, Evil Sushi! The second book encompasses the whole crew, or what is left of the crew, looking for Evil Sushi and Sashimi. All across, people living in the fishermen towns are panicking, leaving their towns and flooding the mainland’s. This is making people panic about being the next ones to fall prey to the mutated ones. Aileen is reeling from the loss of her brother while Sally and Rods relationship change in ways that I could not even begin to think would happen. I have never read a book like this let alone it be a part of a series where it did not fit the bill for one category, which makes it great for all kinds of readers! I cannot wait for the third book to see how it all ends!!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Watch out for the Evil Sushi; it’s worse than gas station sush! It’s going to get you and it’s takes a real bite out of you. Rod is feeling let down because his way of earning a living is dying due to corporate greed. He goes after one of the big boats blows up the fish and finds some unknown fish. He gets Ned and they go back and find some rainbow fish. They take some home and Sally, Ned’s daughter, puts them in a tank with tap water and salt. I loved this part because it reminded me of a furry little creature you shouldn’t get wet. Well, seems if you get salt on this fish, it multiplies. They thought this was a good thing. Nope…hence Evil Sushi. A bad, bad thing happens. Greedy people, mutants, and unknowns. Oh my goodness. This is the best food horror story that I’ve read in awhile. I love sushi but I just may have to rethink it for a bit. Those characters showed every sign of greed and bad personalities. I felt bad for Aileen and Rod. Sally had some ‘tude. Love the plot, it was entertaining and made you think because in some weird way, who says it can’t happen. Hmmmmm? I highly recommend this. I’m looking forward to moving on to book 2 in the series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

One day Rod and Ned go fishing and come across a new species they have never seen before. Rod’s camera also picked up some footage of something big, real big. They bring the fish home and realize that this could solve all their money problems. Little do they know that the fish are off. Once consumed, people start to mutate. It seems like they are turning into ocean creatures.

Rod assumed that it is the work of the big creature he saw on his camera. He also named her Evil Sushi. The three of them (Rod, Ned, and Ned’s daughter Sally) team up with the help of the government to take down this Evil Sushi while trying to figure out the mutations.

After reading this book, I immediately started the next one in the series! I’m hooked!

This book was such a fun little read. It had all the elements, mystery, suspense, romance, you name it! I loved how each character was written to have their own flaws and personality. A trio you wouldn’t think would get along let alone work together as one. Rod the quiet tech geek, Ned the bitter old man who has a big mouth, and Sally the shy old fashioned romantic.

WOW where do I even start to describe how amazing this book was?! It held my attention until the very end was jam packed with a unique storyline that had me on pins and needles. This is a horror story that is mixed with mystery as to how everyone is getting sick and becoming mutated. This book is the thing that nightmares are made of and are EXACTLY why this book is so great. It is a great example of what could happen in the future due to overfishing. I cannot wait to start the second book and see what happens next.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I have read quite a bit of this authors work and she never disappoints. The characters are always strong and independent and the plots are great… This is a paranormal romantic comedy with plenty of laughs and fireworks.
What happens when the Gods, Celestial being and mythological creatures come together Wars were fought, humans suffered, tricks were played and all in the name of competition; a way of determining a hierarchy amongst themselves.
Cupid has always been taken for granted and ridiculed. Enough was enough. It was time to climb the ladder. For once and for all, he is going to prove helping people fall in love was, is, and always will be, the hardest job.

How is Cupid going to prove he deserves respect among his peers? Can he win? What will happen if he loses?

Cupid’s job is harder than all his colleagues know. Mother Nature, Santa Claus, the Grim Reaper, Neptune, none of them understand the intricacies involved in pairing two people – the right two people, for true love. A wager is made and Mother Nature is first up to try to play matchmaker. How hard can it be anyway? Love is in the air in this romance-gone-awry. I enjoyed the bickering between the celestial beings and am looking forward to the rest of the series. It’s a fun, quick read!

This story delivers humor and romance in a way only the Mythological Gods can present it. This book was a lighthearted read that has a delightful cast and a feel good emotion all throughout the story. Cupid is seen in a different light as he makes sure the other Gods see his job is more than just shoot and aim to get people to fall in love. Watching the Gods attempt to be “Cupid” was comical and sweet. This author did a great job with this novella, and I will definitely read future stories from her.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Absolutely fantastic! C.A. King did it again with another marvelous book! I enjoyed book 1 “Evil Sushi” but this second book is by far better in every aspect. I was pulled straight in, and captivated, from the first sentence. I love the characters and how you see them grow in this book. “Sashimi” is excellently written and a quick pleasant read. I could not put it down, and finished in one day! Every paragraph, no, every sentence has you on the edge of your seat waiting for the next big thing to happen! The author expands the story line of “what could happen” , the story evolves in such a magnificent way, and is unpredictable! As the book continues, you can see yourself saying “OMG, this could really happen if the circumstances were correct!”. I adore the little bit of romance added to the intense thriller setting, it gives the book a nice refreshing moment of love, and a reason why the world is worth saving. I can not wait to read the next book in the series!

First of all, the title makes you want to read this book doesn’t it? I know not everyone loves or even likes sushi but how does it become evil or what makes it evil?

The way the book starts makes you really consider what we are doing to this beautiful world of ours. Are we over eating the food source so much that we no longer eat meat and now we’re moving into decimate the fish in the sea? And what is the over harvesting of fish doing to the small coastal town fishermen? Just keep reading and find out what a couple of those fishermen find when their at the end of their rope.

This author does a wonderful job of making the reader connect with the characters. I enjoyed the twist on our world and what could possibly happen as we over populate and over farm the land and sea. The story sucks you in and makes you want to keep reading to see what happens.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is an out of the box scenario of what “could” happen in the future. The author C.A King has a rather sinister outlook on what the ocean would do to us if they had the chance and ability. Is it really sinister or is it just the ocean doing to us what we’ve done to it for centuries? It really made me stop and think about what could happen if we do not reassess the way we live and eat. I enjoyed how the author introduces a small romance to the plot. The relationship is not very dynamic but it’s just enough glimmer of hope and love, to lighten the load of the atrocity happening in the ocean. I love that the author calls it “Evil Sushi”, it most definitely is sushi, by our standards, and is evil. It is a very creative way to describe what is happening!

The author switches point of view throughout the book. Some chapters, it takes a few pages to figure out exactly who’s point of view it is coming from, which can be confusing at times. Other than that, it is a very easy and enjoyable read. Definitely will be reading the other books in the series!

Evil Sushi is the first book of the series by C. A. King. I haven’t read anything by King before. This book was very different from what I’m used to reading. It is a different take on the ocean life than I had expected. Reading this book makes me think about how the world treats our planet. This was an original story, and I was wondering where this story was going to. The author chose a good place to end this story but left enough for the opening to the next installment. With all the action in this book I will have to see where the story will go.

As someone who has been reading a lot of books centering around mythology lately, this was the perfect book for me. I love the twist that the author has put on the more popular ‘fantasy’ figures in this book.

The first book in the series focuses on Mother Nature after she and other popular mythological figures make a bet that they could do Cupids job without issue. I loved watching Mother Nature impersonate a kind old lady just trying to start a new life, and it was hilarious watching her get used to living in the real world. By the end of the book, I was rooting for Mother Nature to be victorious in her quest, having fallen head over heels in love with her.

This is not my first book by the author and it certainly won’t be the last. I love her writing style, attention to detail, and the many characters she has written up. Can’t wait to read the next book in the series!

Everyone thinks Cupid has the easiest job out of all the deities. How hard can it really be to push humans to fall in love? A wager is made between a group of immortals to help ONE human couple find true love…as Mother Nature AKA Greta kicks off the friendly bet, will she prove how easy it is to make mortals fall in love? Cute, clean fun, with a little bit of magic thrown in.

The love story was predictable but cute and not drawn out. The background on the Gods was interesting and added that little bit extra to draw you in. I am looking forward to the next in the series.

C. A. King delivers yet again! In this first book of the Romantically Seasonal series, King combines humor, mythology, magic, and romance to keep the reader entertained. Spring’s Showers focuses on the importance of choosing happiness over who, or what, can bring you the most comfortable lifestyle. The Gods think Cupid’s job as a matchmaker is too easy. Spring’s Showers is Mother Nature’s chance to prove that any of the Gods can produce a love match. But she soon learns that true love is harder to manufacture than she realizes. C. A. King’s quick reads still deliver the lovable, realistic characters as well as great works building. I can’t wait to read the rest of this series!

Spring’s Showers was a fun rom-com with a mythological twist. Cupid makes true love matches but it’s not as easy as the other immortals believe. A bet is placed and the matchmaking begins. We start this series with Mother Nature beginning the challenge of bringing two souls together to fall in love. She meets Spring, owner of a garden center, and is determined to find her match but goes through some errors in understanding what true love actually is. This was a great start to the series and I’m interested to see how the other’s fair in the matchmaking game.
