I really loved the writing of this book, and how things had flowed out. I was hooked into the whole story line and how things went by. It was well done, and the writing and the characters flowed very nicely. I was very impressed, and the story kept me very interested as I read.
Celeste was a main contribute to the story in my eyes. I loved her mind and how she really thought and saw the word. She was your normal teenager I found in a small way , she wanted more than she had going on in her life What she was ca[able of though, I found very intriguing I found. I enjoyed the excitement and the suspense as I read through, it had a lot of moments you weren’t sure where things would lead to next. The side characters really added to the story line as well, everyone was easy to love, except maybe those who meant hard. But they still made the story what it was! Loved it!
Wonderful and intriguing story from start to finish. i could not ask for a concept of writing that was better. I defiantly am going to be looking up more books by this wonderful author. I highly recommend this book, I truly believe it is one that will be enjoyed by all. Has a bit of everything.

Tavormina – Review by Lorrene Huisman
In a desperate attempt to bring his family back, solider Bernard tries to change their fates. Instead he changes history and almost destroys the world in the process.
Alva has a dilemma of her own as her partner has started the countdown of ending the world in their own way.
The two join forces to stop the world from ending but at what costs.
This was a book I couldn’t put down. The cover caught my attention but the premise was even more interesting. I was worried that I wouldn’t get immersed into the story but I was hooked right away.

Celeste is set to inherit her family’s hotel, which she doesn’t want, in this dystopian story. There is danger ahead as she sets off to the city thinking she will find more. This is a well-written tale that makes you go hmm…her family has a genetic oddity in the DNA that can sense carbon footprints and the bad guy wants them dead. That makes for an exciting thrill. Celeste has a few adventures and meets some unique personalities along the way. They are well-developed and quirky. She’s a newer author to me and this is a prequel novella. I will be reading the next in the series. I love the concept. I enjoyed the book. If you enjoy YA books, dystopian books or just plain reading, give this a shot. It’s a quick read. I highly recommend it.

Tavormina – Review by Shelly Kittell
This was an exquisite book done when it came to the historical part of Geisha’s and Japan. What a fascinating look at that period of time and a peek inside the Geisha house. Aia had a hard life taking care of them being whipped for any of the girls misdeeds. When she was thrown into the life and caught Nen’s eye (the king’s bodyguard), that is when the fantastical adventure began. The story was good. I do wish it had been a tad longer. I enjoyed the romance, just wanted a tad more of the Celestial Court fantasy adventure. The characters were well built. It’s a book worth reading. I would recommend it.

I believe I may have found my new favorite author!
This incredible tale surrounds the struggle experienced by a naive but brilliant young lady, Adrijana once she visits the Adrjssian court. Within the first few chapters, we soon learn that a killer is amongst them. Multiple characters exude confidence and charisma, but the question they must answer is, who is trustworthy?
I found this book to be incredibly well written and exceedingly easy to read. I loved how the author allowed the story to build while watching the young Adrijana attempt to deal with constant trials and conflicting emotions with a very sheltered upbringing. On top of this, we become enveloped in the construction of her new life as an inexperienced Mesmerist. The different factions are very mysterious after learning of a small portion of what makes them tick, so I look forward to reading more by the author if/when she creates more titles that will dive deeper into each, especially the unsympathetic Vruk clan.
The hunt for the genuine assassin proves to be quite complex. While Adrijana is learning as she goes, I think the lessons learned within this story will help build her character for more story lines in the future.
I have absolutely nothing to say that I disliked about this book, as I found it very entertaining and I embraced the plot immediately.
Overall, I give this book 5 out of 5 stars. The Mesmerist
This is a story of a young, farm girl who goes to court. There she learns something special about herself, she is a Mesmer. She can read people’s emotions by seeing their oras. Soon after she arrives, the queen is murdered. As more people continue to die, Adrijana works with the other Mesmers to find the killer. Opinion This book is a must read for young adult fans. Not only is it a must read, it should be put at the top of your TBR pile. I was consumed by this story. Every twist and turn made me think about who was the guilty person. The clues are laid out so well that they are easy to overlook. This book was an absolute joy to read.

Journeys Through AllCreation
An ancient prophecy foretells the diabolical plans of an exceedingly intelligent and powerful being. To ensure reality continues to unfold as desired, the ‘god’ entity will utilize the innate powers contained in the Dokkaebi-of-all-Creation to destroy various universes that make up the MultiVerse.
Celestial beings most capable of stopping these plans for destruction become trapped in an alternate reality. Can they escape this illusion before their fates are sealed forever?
Former twins from the lost continent of Atlantis will play pivotal roles in countering the threat of total annihilation for untold numbers of lives across the MultiVerse. Will they be able to help save their current home worlds and the mentors who have taught them so much?
A beautiful and enlightened queen is enlisted in the team’s quest to find an ancient artifact that could assist them in locating the Master Mage. This wizard is their only real hope for defeating the former celestial leader. Can this strange and unassuming being provide what is needed?

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I started reading a paranormal story about a spidershifter. I was pleasantly blown away by the depth of the character who was so much more than my initial thought of “just a spidershifter”. I don’t hate spiders, but don’t have a specific love for them either. This novel gave me a different perspective and new appreciation. I hate reviews that give spoilers, so I won’t go into depth about certain elements. However, there are so many fully fleshed out characters in this. From Aranha to Jonah to Dag, even Lars. I’m deliberately giving zero context on these characters, so that you can go into them with your own thoughts. The story has multiple layers and is, thankfully, not a one note storyline. I love that the author switches between perspectives, it really adds to the “flawed narrator” aspect while giving you a true picture of the situation. You can see why one character would read a situation one way while another will see it completely differently. This is the first book from Courtney Davis that I’ve read, but it was engrossing enough that she has now been added to my (literal) list of authors that I hunt down every month to see if a new book has been released or announced for release. I really need A Spider in the Garden to be the first in a long running series. Basically, if you love paranormal stories like Anita Blake, Rachel Morgan, or Mercy Thompson, this will definitely be worth your time.

This book caught me in it’s web and I couldn’t and didn’t want to break free until I finished it! I have never read a shifter book about spiders before and I am so glad I gave this one a chance! It was so good!! I said “one more chapter” until 1am and I was done. LOL! Aranha is the last of her kind. She’s a spider who is forever on the run from other super naturals who thought they killed out her kind long ago. She only preys on the worst people, so she can stay in the shadows and not draw attention to herself. Dag is a daywalker and one of the last ones left. His species is a dying bread as they have lost their only companions in the world with no other way to have children. Aranha walks into Dag’s bar and Aranha’s web spins out of control. She’s not sure she can trust him and he needs her help. Can a daywalker earn the trust of this scared spider and save a human from the vampires? They can’t believe that one another even exist, so working together might prove to hard. Aranha has only heard tales and doesn’t know what to expect from another species from The Garden of Eden. Dag sees a future for the first time in centuries, but will he scare her off before he can even explain? Boy oh boy, does this one just crawl up your spine. I for one would love to see this book turned into a movie! Hoping for more! I can see a great series with this one!!

I enjoyed this shorter story. This is a newer author for me which I enjoyed and look forward to seeing what is next for this author. I enjoyed being pulled into the story by the characters. Celeste is a great, strong, teenager who really just wanted some excitement in her life. What happens when she finds a small village and the townspeople are willing to show her more than she ever realized. When she realizes that she may be out of depth in this small village, what will she do? I enjoyed her character and what she brought to the story. I also enjoyed how connectable and supportive she was as well as the other characters. I enjoyed watching their growth throughout the story which added to the story. This is a well written story that was both entertaining and easy to read. It is a great pick up. I highly recommend this book.

This is an author that I have enjoyed from the first book I have picked up from her. This author’s writing style and attention to details make her books easy and entertaining to read. This book is no different. This is a historical shorter story that just packs a punch. The characters are connectable and truly bring the story to life. I enjoyed how they pulled me into the story and made the story realistic. This is a fast paced, hard to put down story that kept me turning pages to the end. This is a story about romance and fate. Aia is my favorite character. I enjoyed how strong and what she brought to the story. She made me feel for her in parts, for sure. The growth of her and also the other characters throughout the story is great. They added to the plot and its growth that kept it engaging. This is a great story that I really enjoyed from beginning to end. I highly recommend this book and this author.

This book was amazing, in every which way that it could be. I was amazed at the story concept, and how things went and developed, and how the characters faced the unthinkable through out the novel. It was well put together, and a easy read as well. I was very much content and interested as I read this book.
Loved the historical side of the story. Loved seeing the world through the eyes of a geisha. Its something hat makes you think, if that is how Aia saw the world, perhaps many who are a geisha see the world the same. I loved her outlook on life. Enjoyed her time and moments with Nen. He was defiantly more than he appeared at first glance I loved his deep underneath lining. The moments shared between these two really added to the story. Another factor I loved was the way the author was able to transport me to Japan, literally! I felt I was right there with all the fine details that they used. Beautiful and haunting is the best way to sum up my feelings. Wonderful read! Highly recommend!
Wondaful work of art story! The story mesmerized me through out my reading, and I could not step away even for a moment, as the constant desire of the book’s will power to see what would unfold next. Highly recommend reading this book if you have not yet, it is fo sure a must read! And the author as well!

This is such a great blend of romance, action, and fantasy. I was drawn into the magical world that the author creates from the very first page. I couldn’t wait to see what was going to happen next! I really enjoyed the Norse mythology that was woven throughout. Bernard and Alva are drawn together but something is holding each of them back. They must work together if there’s any hope of saving the Nine Realms. This book is a real page turner that will have you captivated and on the edge of your seat the entire team.

Bernard and Alva are both brave, intelligent, and troubled heroes, who have lost their families and live their lives far from where they started. Bernard lost his parents and guardians long ago, and his wife and children at Pearl Harbour. Alva’s father died recently, and she is estranged from her mother, the queen, and her sisters because she refuses the practice of killing men to draw energy. Together with the goddess Freyja and other assistants, they defend the Nine Worlds from destruction. Bernard is so gutted about the war and the loss of his family, that he attempts to change the course of history to save them – unwittingly setting into motion a cascade of unintended consequences. As they battle together to right the wrong, they’ll need to use every power and person at their disposal.
I loved these two characters, and how they grew as people through the course of the story. They are flawed, but also courageous, loyal, and and loving. The authour wrote them masterfully. Exciting story and lots of action.

This book was SO GOOD! The author did a really good job in weaving this fantasy crime novel, while making it fun, engaging and hard to put down! I was drawn at first to this cover, it’s absolutely gorgeous, and honestly wasnt sure what to expect but I definitely wasn’t disappointed! The characters were very well written and had a ton of depth to them. They (and the storyline itself) were engaging and I felt like I was right there in the book with them. I have read books from this author before, but this one was so different I was shocked! It felt like reading a completely new author. This book wasn’t disappointing and I highly recommend it!
This book had so much to offer I can’t even stand it, full of Norse mythology, fantasy, military fiction and so much more it makes your head spin. This author was just purely amazing to me, their plot line was phenomenal, the word building was incredible, and the storyline was so well put together that I just simply couldn’t put this book down. Full of action, magic, paranormal characters, a wide variety of emotions, and so much more this book has something for everyone. So if your looking for a great new fantasy novel to read this weekend then you should pick this one up today.

Adrijana longs for more out of life. She accepts an invitation for her and her father to stay for a celebration thinking this is the opening she has been seeking. However, she quickly learns that life is not always as it seems. Her world comes crashing down around her when she finds out her father has kept her true heritage from her since she was five years old. She has to come to grips quickly with who she is as the royal family is being murdered one by one. In a world of intrigue, secrets, and hidden agendas, Adrijana has to learn quickly who she can trust and who she cannot before it is too late! Can she learn everything about being a mesmerist fast enough to find the true killer? Or will the killer succeed in taking out the royal family?
This is my first time reading this author and I was not disappointed! The story drew me in immediately and I didn’t want to put it down. There were strange things happening to her and I HAD to know what was going on. I was drawn in by Adrijana’s vulnerability and her emotions throughout the story. The lessons she learns are hard ones, but she refuses to roll over and give up. All the characters were intriguing, and the storyline kept me guessing until the end! I hope there will be more books in this world!
I really wish this book was longer! I very much enjoyed reading about Aia and Nen. Being that the story was set in ancient Japan, had magical elements and geishas made it that much more interesting to me. Aia’s sister Yui is a geisha but Aia wasn’t a full blown geisha yet and it seemed like she was just kind of in limbo with her life. A chance meeting with Nen, a swordsman changes her perspective. I loved watching Nen and Aia’s relationship grow, as well as the dangerous and magical journey they embark on to see the world. I would definitely recommend this book!

In a remote country village, seventeen-year-old Celeste yearns for excitement. When the bright lights of a distant city beckon, she makes her way there, and city folk show Celeste more of the world than she ever imagined.
But these people have their reasons to cozy up to a country teenager, because Celeste’s family carries an ancient genetic ability to track carbon emissions by sight. The trait is powerful enough to undercut Turaset’s oil industry, and the titan running that industry wants Celeste’s family killed. Soon, she realizes how out of her depth she is.

Tavormina
“A great and mysterious event occurred. Religious talisman came fluttering down out of the empty sky. Men dressed as women. Women dressed as men. The town’s people dancing through the village. The villagers cavorting in towns. Whole populations drunk. Orgiastic behavior in the streets and paper talismans falling from the Heavens, like cherry blossoms in the wind. The world was coming to an end. A new one was apparent.” ~ Iwakura Tomomi.
Western winds blow revolution across Japan as Emperor Meiji seeks to modernize his country. The changes, the whispers of siege and war in retaliation, sweep over Ono Aia. Her small world, wound and bound like the kimono around her body, revolves around the geishas she serves and the geisha she hopes to be.
But upheaval cannot be stopped. Aia is flung into the arms of a swordsman with obsidian eyes and a blade that can cut more than mortal flesh. His name is Nen.
At his side, not only does Aia learn of a mythical realm beyond human comprehension, she learns where her heart may truly lie. Perhaps it is not in the study and perfection of the geisha tradition. Perhaps, it beside a man larger than life. His size terrifies and thrills her. His black eyes dazzle and delight her.
But the spirits of Japanese lore could destroy man’s reality. Can the fates of the mortal and fantastical world remain in balance? Or will Aia find her heart only to lose it in the uproar?

As far as I am aware this was my first book by Mrs. Luana. This book is a standalone novel and was rather interesting. It combined the flare of fantasy that has become popular with just the right amount of mystery that keeps the reader interested. The characters are easy to love and you find yourself rooting for Andrijana. You can’t help yourself from wanting to see her win.

As the universe recovers from the last confrontation between those from Earth and those from another planet with an opposing view of how life should be, those living in a mystical place find an ancient prophecy which speaks of dire consequences to the MultiVerse brought on by an all powerful “God like” creature who will use their intelligence and power to ally themselves with the Dokkaebi-of-all-Creation to create their vision of reality in all its glory.
Meanwhile, the celestial beings who would be capable of stopping this diabolical plan in its tracks have gone missing, trapped by the “God like” creature as a retaliatory move for a past action. This has consequences as another is released so that they can be trapped and as happy as that individual is, disorientation and adjustments need to be made before the plan can be fully enacted.
As a set of ancient twins from the lost continent of Atlantis are called upon to again reunite and tackle the issue revealed by the ancient prophecy, as well as search for the trapped celestial beings, they embark on another journey away from their loved ones. Along the way they recruit a beautiful Queen who has access to ancient sites of wisdom and relics which will aid them on their quest, as well as other team members whose skills are needed and mentioned in the prophecy as well.
The overall goal is to search for the Master Mage who will aid them and stop this creature in its tracks, however, other players are preparing their own manoeuvres and training for their goals, but whether they will align with the prophecy is unknown.
As this unpredictable prophecy plays out among the MultiVerse, the two opposing sides prepare for a confrontation between mortals and “gods” as the future of all the beings in creation hangs in the balance, but which side will be triumph? This is a sci-fi fantasy of epic proportions as all the players race against time to either bring destruction, or salvation to all the worlds within the MultiVerse, as you are pulled into the journey with them and are carried along to its conclusion.

Immersed into a world where everything is not as it seems, Adrijana discovers her father’s dislike for visiting the capital is more than just a jaded view of an old man who’s lived through times of war. Among assassinations, plots and mysteries surrounding most everyone Adrijana meets in the city, she has to find her way and figure out whom she can trust, all while discovering a huge secret about her own hidden abilities and the newfound discrimination she faces because of the truth. This is a truly captivating story with twists and turns and an exciting tale to witness as it unfolds. Can’t wait to read what happens next!
I have been looking forward to reading this third instalment to the Journeys Through series and I really enjoyed it. I think this is probably my favourite from the series – again the author transported me to another world with his wonderfully detailed writing. The story was action packed from the start. It was great to see recurring characters as well and because of this I would highly recommend that this series is read in order. I definitely think this book tied together the series well. I liked the uniqueness of Matt and Rashella’s relationship, their character development was really well done. Overall a great read and I look forward to more from this author again in the future.

This is the second book in this series which I enjoyed just as much as the first. I highly suggest reading the previous book before this one to help your enhancement of this series and the author’s writing skills. This is a book that pulled me in from the beginning. It is an engaging, full of action, fast paced story that was hard to put down. I enjoyed how the characters brought the story to life. The Traveler is my favorite character as he is strong and I felt for him in parts. I enjoyed his growth as well as how supportive all the characters were to each other. This is a well written story that took me on a journey of challenges and a question of who you really are. This is a great story that I really enjoyed. I highly recommend this book.
I enjoyed this fantasy story. This is a well written story about saving the NIne Realms and lurking enemies. This is a fast paced story that kept me engaged to the end. A story that is full of adventure where the characters had me coming back for more. I enjoyed how the characters are connectable and their growth throughout the story. They pulled me into their world and made me want to know what happened next. I enjoyed the growth of the plot as it made the story entertaining and easy to read. Will everyone be saved or does fate have something else in store for them? I enjoyed this book and I highly recommend it.

This author has given us a story that is a blend of romance, fantasy, and Norse mythology. It starts off a little slow but soon gets going and entices and intrigues till the end. With a beautiful descriptive narrative, intricately woven threads, and great world-building leads to a tapestry of enjoyment. There is plenty of action, magic and emotions, desperation, sadness, happiness, and everything in between. With elves and characters of all types, this tale is one you can tell the author has put heart and soul into. This book is the first I have read by this author, and I enjoyed it immensely. I had devastating news early hours of this morning and this story was able to get me out of my head for a while. With twists and turns at every angle this is one thrilling and suspenseful tale. What would you do for love?

From page one, I slipped into the telling of this story and never left. Such a well written tale of coming of age, court intrigue.. murder, young romance, mysticism and manipulation. Somehow the author packs every chapter full and still keeps us right on track, connected to the story. Thanks to well developed characters and a unique magical ability this is a book that will appeal almost everyone. My first read by this author, and I’m hoping there’s a Book 2 on its way!

Amazing third book to the series! I really love that we get to read more about Matt’s past and future as he is on a mission. Getting to learn more about all of the characters and the MultiVerse was very interesting. This was definitely a page turner with everything coming to a head. All of the growth and transformations that take place are very well described so you are able to visualize every detail. Really great storytelling from the author! Definitely recommend reading the series in order!
