Chain Reaction (Nite Fire #2)Chain Reaction by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Well I enjoyed this book too! Nite Fire: Chain Reaction is the next book in the series. We pick up pretty much where the last book cut off. The big difference now is through this book officer Casey Evans knows who and what Dahlia is. He doesn’t know everything but he knows she’s from a different realm and that she’s a dragon shifter.
Just like book 1 I enjoy the dynamic between Detective Creed and Dahlia, however I feel like Dahlia is at a point where she’s torn. I feel like the author through the first so many chapters was implying that Dahlia wished she could tell Detective Creed her secrets, but knew he was better off not knowing. It gave me something to look forward to while reading the book.

Does he find out? Do they finally capture/defeat everyone involved in the 1st book murders?

Please check it out! I would highly recommend reading book 1 first if you haven’t already! Personally am looking forward to book 3!

Flash Point (Nite Fire, #1)Flash Point by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Well I’ve read all kinds of books with shapeshifters, but this is the first one with Dragon shifters! Nite Fire: Flashpoint was interesting to say the least. I liked it but it took me a little bit to get into it.
Dahlia fled her world because she was sentenced to death. She was going to take the death in stride but her human empathy got the best of her and she escaped. Living in the human world she’s a cleaner. To humans she’s just a maid but she really cleans up the messes that those “make believe beings” create and leave behind. One night Oren sends her on a job that flips her current world on its axis.
Enter Detective Creed, who’s job and skill are to deal with the “strange and unusual” & flipping it into something the captain can report to the media.
Together these two work this case of family who were brutally murdered. Dahlia is coming to terms that it’s her own kind she’s up against. Detective Creed knows something definitely isn’t right. With his case and his new partner.
I enjoyed the character dynamics between the two, it’s actually what brought me back into this book. I was struggling before these two started working together.
Does Detective Creed find out what Dahlia is, and who they’re really up against?
This supernatural murder mystery will answer all those questions, you just need to pick up this book and give it a chance!

Chain Reaction (Nite Fire #2)Chain Reaction by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a book all about the supernatural.

Murder, mayhem, dragons, and mutants—oh my! Dahlia Nite is the only one who can discern the difference between monsters and humans. She’s been hunting one to defend the other for over a century, protecting mankind from creatures that slip through the tattered curtain between the worlds—creatures like her. However, the distinctions are becoming increasingly blurred. Dahlia recognizes a weird sickness has fallen upon Sentinel City as individuals begin to mutate and explode on the streets. From the upscale, high-end nightclub sector to the impoverished neighborhood, the unknown sickness affects people from all walks of life. Its victims, driven to random acts of brutality, are attracting far too much attention to be hidden.

Dahlia and her human companion, Detective Alex Creed, are assigned to the case and are investigating the fatalities. But all they have are questions and bodies, as well as a terrified public. Dahlia is working behind the scenes with her self-appointed sidekick, Casey Evans, to figure out what or who is behind the frightening changes. She wonders, as the violence escalates and the mystery deepens if the victims are still human. Were they ever-present?

I loved this story. I loved every page of it. Every chapter was exciting. This is my second book in the series from this author and I can’t wait to read the rest of her books.

This was a really good read! This was a great sequel to the first book and just as entertaining and action packed as the first one. I love the characters in this book and they just keep getting better with each one. This was enthralling story with a great plot. I swear I don’t think this author ever disappoints with her novels, everything I’ve read from her is great. I could hardly put this book down once I started reading it. This series is quickly becoming a favorite and I can’t wait to read the next installment of this series!

I don’t read sci-fi books, but holy cow this book definitely changed my mind and my outlook on them. Deborah has a way of catching your attention and keeping it throughout the whole book. I actually felt like I was learning so much while reading this book. I felt like I was right there with the characters and doing everything with them. I just couldn’t put this book down at all. This book really does take you on a journey.

This is the second book in this series. I would recommend reading first book before tackling this one. In this series a wonderful mix of paranormal and mystery takes us on an adventure unlike any other. I thoroughly enjoyed the world the author has created. Dahlia Nite is back and better than ever. Dahlia is a strong and fierce warrior. You love her instantly. I can’t wait to see we go next in the series.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Dahlia Nite is one badass shifter. I love how she “lies” to her partner, Evans, to get out of him following her. She is supposed to protect humanity from the monsters but those lines are blurring. She wonders if its a virus or if somethings is triggering people. What makes this story work is the adventure. You don’t really get stories with dragon shifters. The action kept my interest all the way through. Well-written. The characters are totally relatable. I totally recommend this.

Chain Reaction is the second book of the Nite Fire series and it’s another great book full of adventure, fantasy and action and a little hint of romance too.
We learn more about Dahlia and get to see more of her kicking butt to protect those she cares for. I love how she never gives up no matter the challenge. I enjoyed watching the team work with Alex and Casey had me snickering with teasing comments. It’s a well written book and I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series. This series already has me hooked and I have already added it to my top favorite list!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Book one captivated me and this second book in the Nite Fire series did not disappoint! There was so much action and drama in this book, I couldn’t put it down. I love Dahlia Nite, she is the quintessential female hero who has her ups and downs and her love for the human race is shown in her reaction to them when things go wrong.

A new drug has shown up in Sentinel City and humans are turning up dead, in very strange ways. Dahlia is able to recognize her own transformations to her dragon form in these deaths. Dahlia and her crew must tamp down any panic in the city and figure out where the drugs are coming from before the city figures out that their reality is much more different than they could have guessed.

I loved the action in this book, add to it the unexpected storyline and you have a great read!

Oh wow.
Man is very hard to describe a book with a few words without spoiling it. I believe that whoever wants to find a fine adventure will turn their heads into this direction.
The author did an amazing job with the story and h9onestly the description made a lot of noise in my head (the good kind) im stocked about the development on the story and the creation of this adventure that the Traveler has to achive. Great characters and super engaging story.

Action, mystery and more
This is the second book in the Nite Fire series and it did not disappoint. I really enjoyed book 1 and was ready to delve back into the world of dragons and monsters. I recommend reading book 1 first as it will help to orient the story. The author is brilliant with the world building and bringing a story with so much action, emotion and mystery but it doesn’t feel overwhelming. The story has a natural flow that kept me turning the pages. So good to see Dahlia with her crew. Intrigued to see what adventure awaits in book 3.

This story picks up right where it left off, and it drags you into the story one page at a time.
It does not disappoint.
There is a new threat, new strategies and adventures.
You really cannot go wrong with a female lead.
I am so looking forward to book three. Give me more.
The way the author uses words to draw you in and create this world.
I always love dragons.
This is long and thrilling and full of mystery and OMG moments.
Another five stars to this author, I recommend this,
Read book one first.

I am so in love with Dahlia. I’ma sucker for strong female lead characters, and she’s all over it. She’s definitely not going to let some new guy come into her town and use it like a Petrie dish for testing a new drug. I am still all for the dragon shifter lines too! It’s nice to see something other than werewolves or other were-animals. This also being book two, HIGHLY Recommended to read book one. Get a good backstory on the badness that Dahlia. I’m ready for book three!

I really enjoyed this book. While above everything, it was a fantasy novel, it was so much more than that. It kind of felt like a mix of many popular genres: action, romance, fantasy, it has it all! This was definitely a unique take on the “magic powers” trope, which was entertaining on its own, but it also had great world and character building! I would definitely recommend it as a fun, easy read.

Chain Reaction (Nite Fire #2)Chain Reaction by C.L. Schneider
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Chain Reaction is the second book in the Nite Fire series. I would definitely recommend starting at book one, Flash Point, so you get to know the characters and the world. It’s an urban fantasy series about Dahlia Nite, a shape-shifting dragon who investigates crimes related to other monsters who have crossed over into the human world.

In Chain Reaction, Nite and her colleagues are presented with a particularly baffling series of cases. Spontaneous human combustion is involved, which makes gathering evidence near-impossible! And also means they’ve got no chance of hiding what’s happening from the public. So it’s a race against the clock to work out what’s happening before it happens again and public panic worsens.

Evans comes into his own in this book. As one of the few humans who knows Nite’s secret, he has declared himself her sidekick and helps cover for her when she needs to use her abilities to gather clues. In this book, we also get to meet Dr Winters, the medical examiner who has the mammoth task of working out what happened whilst she is being kept in the dark about the paranormal aspects of the case.

This book gets five stars from me! I would recommend the series to fans of urban fantasy and paranormal mystery. And anyone who wishes they could turn into a dragon!

This book was incredible. Just the perfect length to read in a couple hours. This was my first book by this author. Her story painted such vivid pictures in my brain that I wish I knew how to read with my eyes closed. The swan shifter aspect was definitely different, but not bad!! Ember and Austin are great characters, I’m excited for book two!

Chain Reaction (Nite Fire #2)Chain Reaction by C.L. Schneider

I am well impressed. The second book in any series sometimes stalls to a lull and is a set up for more books instead of trying to answer anything in book one. This is not one of those cases. It seamlessly moves from one book to another picking right up where the first one and continues the story at a fairly good pace. The author does it again with this wonderful book. Dalhia is still my favorite character. She is strong and has more character development in this book too. The writing is wonderfully done yet again! This sets the bar for all the other fantasy books I’m reading. I can’t wait for the rest of the series!!! Well done and we’ll worth the read!

Thrilling dragon series starter
A gripping start to an action packed supernatural dragon series. This book had it all: mystery, suspense, drama, romance, paranormal and of course, dragons. It is an intense storyline, with strong characterisation and excellent world building that draws you in from the start. Dahlia is a strong female lead, that has a natural appeal and keeps the story moving. The author does a brilliant job at ensuring every character is memorable in their own right and the use of imagery is spot on. Looking forward to book 2.

The TravelerThe Traveler by Deborah Dugan
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Tristan is a man with few friend, but a fulfilling life as a structural engineer, he designs buildings for a living and enjoys the process, just like he enjoyed the studying he had to do to be able to do it, however, one day after a terrible migraine, he sees a spiders leg coming out of the air vent and starts to panic, however, when this spider starts to talk to him, it sends him over the edge. The Traveler has spent many years trying to make contact with someone who will give him the time of day, he has observed Tristan and thinks that he might be the one to finally talk to him, but what he didn’t expect was that Tristan has arachnophobia, so The Traveler has to step in and hope that it doesn’t cause a problem with his plan.

When Tristan wakes up and realises that the spider is real, he doesn’t want to accept that, or the fact that it can communicate with him and he thinks that it is a set up, however, as more time passes and The Traveler begins to tell his tale, Tristan becomes more and more sure that this is someone, or something that he wants to know more about and The Traveler is more than happy to tell his story to Tristan.

As the two spend more time together, Tristan starts to realise that maybe his self-imposed isolation isn’t all it’s cracked up to be and has to do some soul searching while he isn’t talking to The Traveler, while The Traveler is hoping that the more he opens up to Tristan, the more hope he has of fulfilling his mission and this be his final learning experience, can he truly feel and encompass all the feelings he has inside him from learned experience and will Tristan be able to overcome the barriers he has placed around himself and allow the true identity of The Traveler to reveal itself? This is an uplifting sci-fi tale of experiences and learning curves, told from the viewpoint of someone not of this world while helping another to work through their experiences and emotions to become a better person, as you follow on this voyage across time.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Book 2 in the Nite Fire series does not disappoint. Lots of action and mayhem, just as in Book 1, with Dahlia kicking supernatural butt. Used to diving in to solve sticky problems then hopping on to the next trial, she is trying this time to stay put. She is unused to having relationships, and the anxiety his can bring when people you care about are at risk. As she wades through those murky waters, she also battling a new entity – humans infected with a paranormal drug that is killing them in droves. I enjoyed seeing a bit more character development of Dahlia, making her a more complex hero. Can’t wait to start book 3!

The Traveler (The Traveler, Book 1) by Deborah Dugan. This book was so fun. Its a time travel book and it was told so well that I felt like I was actually there. The main character is a traveler who has traveled all over time meeting different humans so he can tell his story. When he meets Tristan he’s more than willing to listen. The traveler has come back as a spider and Tristan is deathly afraid of spiders so the relationship is tense at the beginning. Learning from one another they become great friends and really help each other. This book is full of action, sci fi, mystery and oddities. I’m not a huge sci fi fan but I really enjoyed this book. It kept my attention and I was truly intrigued by it. The start was a little slow but it picked up a lot toward the end! If you are a sci fi fan do yourself a favor and read this book!

I highly recommend you read the first before you dive into this book! We are once again met with our pained but striving heroine Dahlia Nite. Detective Alex Creed and Dahlia have a new affliction on their hands.

Together, although their methods very much so differ in execution they are trying to solve what exactly brought this new affliction to town and who. The banter between them is quite comical and I truly enjoy them as a duo.

I am really excited that this is a series that I can continue. It still just as the first had the right amount of action and fantasy to keep me wanting more and needing to know more.

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

This book stars with an amazing premise, aliens, time travel, and it has everything to be amazing, the downfall is that the action develops slow, and to people that has trigger with tarantulas or with giant spiders, maybe it’s not the best book since our alien is in the body of a big tarantula…

The action develops slow and with lots of descriptions, for instance;

“I reach the gravel driveway where the truck is parked and notice the left front tire is a little low, but it should be all right until I can take care of it after work.”

This kind of descriptions, Tristan thoughts about things or actions that he is doing happen quite a lot and that is one of the reasons why the story develops slowly, if you like action paced books, perhaps it’s not the right book for you, but I also need to tell that it gets better with each part in the book, so take that as you seem fit ^_~

This author was a new read for me. I was a bit lost at the beginning of the book and could have used a bit more back story and walk through of some of the terms and definitions before jumping right in, but with that being said I did enjoy this book. The main character Lee was quite endearing with her vulnerabilities.

Lee has a unique magic that allows her to shift between the veil of this world and the next where she can move around without being seen or heard, a great asset for a thief! The major problem is that every time she uses this magic it is slowly killing her.

There was a ton of action in this book which made it a great page turner. I look forward to book 2.
