Dare Me (Book One in the Demonology series)Dare Me by Felicity Brandon
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I did like this novel by Felicity Brandon, but must warn any future readers, it is not for the feint of heart. If you are not able to handle erotica with bondage/slave overtones, then this might not be your cup of tea. Felicity Brandon provided a very graphic story that involves both. I enjoyed the journey of Raif and Sara. Although many might find their journey to love strange, I found it beautiful. I highly recommend this novel to those individuals that enjoy erotica and a beautiful love story.

Love the Way You Dance is another great novel by Allison Boot. I found this book to be inspirational in the message presented.

Hansel & Gretel (Down the Rabbit Hole) Anthology – Review by Cindy Rushin

Hansel & Gretel: Down the Rabbit HoleHansel & Gretel: Down the Rabbit Hole by Autumn Sand
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Hansel and Gretel Reimagined was so good. Each author’s interpretation of the classic fairy tale held enough adventure, fun and some real twists that it kept my attention. I loved how each story had a unique take to the classic tale of Hansel and Gretel and each story touched on some major life issues, including mental illness, obesity, and the bond between siblings to name a few. Some of the stories were even a little dark, which I enjoyed. Other stories focused on the bond between the brother and sister that helped them to triumph over evil. Hansel and Gretel Reimagined brought to my attention seven new authors to watch out for as each story was interesting and I look forward to reading more from each of them.

Just the Way You AreJust the Way You Are by Allison M Boot
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I enjoyed this novel by Allison Lewis. It was uplifting and had a really nice message for all those young girls out there that feel they are different and that they will never be accepted for who they are. It was inspirational and a joy to read. As we were given a glimpse into the growth and development of Misty we got to experience her joy at finding not only love but acceptance for who she was. This inspirational novel helps to show that no matter what a person’s flaws or perceived flaws are, the individual can draw from the flaw and it can become their greatest strength. This light hearted novel is a good read and well worth checking out.
