The prophecy says she’ll destroy him, but if he doesn’t reveal too much, will she help him rule Hell?

Jade is in witness protection and finds herself in possession of a store full of magical items. Her presence there alerts her existence to Baal, a serpent shifter and the first king of Hell. He arrives to kill her before she can become what has been prophesied and kill him, but he is enchanted by what he finds. She is everything he feared she would be, but she is also enticingly beautiful and pulls at something deep within him. She has no idea what she is, and he decides to try and use her for his own plans. 

Jade tentatively trusts Baal as she embraces her new powers and his reasons for seeking the keys to a gate in Hell. She agrees to help him, but along their journey she discovers that four planes of existence have crashed together; the fae realm, the angel realm, the demon realm and the earth realm. They are all fighting for control of earth and its inhabitants. 

She is the one prophesied to choose the winner. She is the one prophesied to kill the first king of Hell.

Undying Light (The Stella Maris Series Book 1) by Aurora Wildey – Review by Angela Renee Diaz

Undying LightUndying Light by Aurora Wildey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

A lot of supernatural characters. Plenty of action. Kaela was attacked while at work and another paranormal Terran saves Kaela. He is severely injured. So repaying Terran, Kaela risks herself and heals Terran. It’s quite interesting and kept me on my toes.

Dawnbreaker: The House of Blood and SunDawnbreaker: The House of Blood and Sun by Hadley Thorne
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Dawnbreaker: The House of Blood and Sun, by Haldey Thorne, was a super good read! I love all stories about Fae, and also stories about vampires, but Dawnbreaker merged the worlds, with a lot of others that I did not expect. She detailed the worlds and the nuances between Fae, vampire court, and human world so vividly, but without losing my attention. (Which, admittedly, is hard for me to focus on during very in-depth detailed descriptions). I loved the way Hadley created the worlds and brought them together. I am very excited to keep up with this series!

Yeti Left Home by Aaron Rosenberg – Review by Charlene Gonzalez

Yeti Left HomeYeti Left Home by Aaron Rosenberg
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I give this Author 5 stars because this book has taught me that life can be scary and not all the time are peaceful. What Wylie was dreaming was a moment in life when he had to make a difference before life catches up to him.
Not my type of book but it is a way of learning that you have to chance after dreams because sometimes life is too short. For Wylie, the hunter was life too short but his dreams can be the cause of this life-changing and a moment that he has to be out of his comfort zone.

Yeti Left Home by Aaron Rosenberg – Review by Maikalani Alexander

Yeti Left HomeYeti Left Home by Aaron Rosenberg

Yeti definitely finds a home after leaving what he thought was a good life. One of solitude and confinement in the mountains. Barely Interacting with the townsfolk he discovers he’s flushed out by a hunter. Running to a new city he finds he’s truly not alone. While there isn’t another yeti around he makes friends, solidifies a pack, and begins a new adventure a life full of joy happiness and friendship.
Integrating into a new lifestyle in the city the hunter finds him again. This time he doesn’t run but fights to keep his place and prove his innocence.

This is one of the most joyful, interesting, and fun reads ! I mean who doesn’t love a good story about Cryptids.

I hope there will be a part two or maybe even a sequel to the lives of one of yeti’s friends.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First time read from this author, and it was enjoyable. It is a fantasy novel with its own element. Amy a heroine who was a fearless and fierce. She drove herself as well as the others around her.
This book entangles magic, drama, action, suspense, and a perfect touch of romance.
Amy left her previous life behind. A life in which her decisions were not her own, and the choices were dictated by others. Amy knows she cannot leave her past fully behind, and the evil forces won’t stop until they have her. She determines her own fate now, and the only way to ever be free is to lead her own army against the evil that’s coming. The story that you will not want to miss.

I did not expect to like this book as much as I did. It was a lot of fun to read. Paranormal aspects, drama, mystery, humor, life lessons, new friendships and the difficulty of trying to fit in. The story was a great read. Once I started it, I did not want to end.

He immediately flees town supernatural town that could actually be his forever home. However, things start closing in when the Hunter appears in his new town, leaving Wylie with little options other than to solve crimes himself to clear his name. As the excitement begins, we begin the adventure with the Yeti and his new friends in this feel good mystery.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Aurora Wildey has written a fantastic fantasy novel, with so much excitement I couldn’t put it down. The characters are developed so well, I felt like they were real! The setting was beautifully portrayed with all of the details fine-tuned, it just drew me in. I was on the edge of my seat when Kaela Morrow was attacked, I was sure she was a goner! Luckily she was saved by her rescuer who risked his own life to save hers, Terran Montgomery, the man of mystery sacrificed himself. Thank goodness Kaela had the ability to heal, which she did, and in exchange, Terran promised to watch over her. There is another who wants to protect Kaela, Seth Lazarus, but neither man gets along. Are both of them helping Kaela for her own good, or do they have ulterior motives? Can she trust either of them or is she all on her own once again? You won’t want to put this book down once you begin, so be ready for a great experience.

Kaela with the healing power of light is trying to finish school to be a nurse when a violent attack nearly ends her life, but Terran, a district attorney (and a werewolf) witnesses her being attacked and saves her but is gravely wounded.
Kaela feels his Injuries may kill Terran so she uses her gift to heal him which is incredibly dangerous and paints a giant target on her back. Terran vows to protect her.
A second attempt on her life brings Seth a being like her who could sense her powers as there hasn’t been a being like her in hundreds of years. Seth offers her a safe roof over her head and a job where he can watch out for her.
Neither Terran or Seth trust one another and Kaela feels pulled in multiple directions. Can she trust either one of them?
Lots of intrigue, drama, Paranormal activity and a multi pov story will keep you on your toes and constantly thinking as the plot unfolds. Looking forward to reading the rest of this series!

Yeti Left Home by Aaron Rosenberg – Review by Jennifer Gordon

Yeti Left HomeYeti Left Home by Aaron Rosenberg
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is an enjoyable and entertaining story, with an original storyline and supernatural characters, which kept me intrigued throughout. Wylie Kang-a Yeti is a peaceful and unassuming character, who lives a quiet life on the outskirts of Embarrass, Minnesota in his self built sanctuary. He also has an appreciation for the more human creature comforts, like toilet roll! When a series of strange murders take place in the area a Hunter arrives in town, and is soon on Wylie’s trail. With the Hunter in pursuit Wylie leaves town and heads for the Twin Cities, with everything he owns in his truck.
He plans on loosing himself in the urban jungle, but struggles to fit in and blend in. However, when he finds a thriving supernatural community, he starts to settle in and make friends. He soon discovers that the bloodshed and the Hunter have followed him to the city. Wylie decides he must catch the killer before the Hunter catches up with him. This is lighthearted story, full of wit and humour, however the underlying issues such as Wylie not fitting in, are dealt with sensitively. I loved the characters, especially Wylie who I really felt for and I was immersed in his story, hoping he would have a HEA.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was a little different then the normal im use to. The author did an amazing job putting the real world and the fantasy world twisted together in this story. The characters were very well written that it made me feel like I know them and was in the story with them. Amy is a strong lead character that has some very powerful magic. the story itself is very well paced and easy to keep track of what is going on. There were a few twists and turns in the story that I did not expect and kept me reading more. This book was filled with magic, fantasy, paranormal, romance, danger, drama, action, and so much more. This was an all out good book to start a series, I did not know that there is a prequel and really feel like I would know more to go with this book, even thou it was good on its own.

A Fox. A Healer. A Broken Soul.

Foxy Tails by Natalina Reis is a paranormal MM romance with shifters, magic, danger, action, adventure, fate, revenge, banter, humour, folklore/mythology, and more.
This has all the ingredients that I normally love to find in a MM romance- so it should have been right up my alley. And I love Ms. Reis’s stories, so I am not sure why I didn’t completely love this story. I found it hard to connect with the characters and so that made it difficult to invest in them and their story. I felt like something was ‘missing’, for me. I also didn’t feel the chemistry/connection between the characters- and I so want to love their romance. Maybe it’s just me, and I am having an ‘off’ reading day here- so I am planning to come back to this in a few weeks and reread it to see if I still fell the same way, or not. So, stay tuned.
Don’t let me put you off reading this book though, as it is a good story…. And Ms. Reis does weave a well-written tale. Jump in and make up your own mind.
Happy Reading…

Thank you, Natalina Reis!

Foxy Tails is a MM/Fantasy/ Romance that once you start reading its hard to put down. This authors style of writing and attention to detail along with her creative characters make for one heck of a epic ride. These characters pull you into their world and makes it feel like you are apart of the story. I found myself going through different emotions with this one. Get ready to be taken on quite the adventure full of drama, danger, romance and magic. This is a story about a Fox, a Healer and a Warrior and their journey. I don’t want to give to much away. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens next. You won’t be disappointed. I look forward to seeing what this author brings us next.

An interesting tale that’s twists to unfold more of her past. One she knew nothing of can help her succeed in the future. Maybe the past doesn’t define her but it helps shapes Amy and her team of rebellions. It’s a slow steady burn with a few potential love interests I am curious to watch blossom. Will she succeed? The discovery of who she could be change the game to her favor ? Questions I hope to answer as I continue through the series

Foxy Tails is an original MM fantasy romance tale with a cast of colourful characters. There are demons, foxes, healers, magic, murder and vengeance just to keep things interesting.
Huli has had a hard and pain filled life and is being hunted. He meets up with Xiao who is seeking vengeance against his family. Together with his best friend and one very funny dog a man’s best friend Ye Ying they set off on a quest to reveal truths.
It is filled with loss and hope, magic and danger, suspense and tension, humour and action within a world where nothing is what it seems.
I do feel a bit gipped in the romance department though I thought the romance was slowly building toward something explosive, but I was wrong. Foxy Tails actually feels like it is more aimed at a younger audience.
I am wondering if this is a standalone or the first book in a new series. It kind of felt unfinished.

This was an interesting fantasy adventure with a MM Romance. The author does an amazing job with the characters and the influence of Chinese cultures and myths. This is what really brought this story to life for me all the little details that author put into the story.
In this book we meet Huli who is a nine tailed fox and Xiao who is a healer.

Huli has spent his whole life running away from danger and trying to save himself as everyone thinks he is a demon. He lives a very lonely and dangerous life.
Xiao has also known pain after having to deal with the grief of losing all his family.
Both of them do what they need to to be able to survive and neither of them expect to find companionship until they meet each other.
What happens next is a story about learning to trust and letting someone into your life.
Together they set out on the path to find what and who is responsible for the death of Xiao’s family but will they like what they find or are some secrets better left unknown.
This is an action packed fantasy adventure. There is a little romance involved in the story but it is very subtle and enhances the connection between Xiao and Huli without it taking over the story.

Get ready to jump inside this fantasy world and go on an adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

This is an exciting read for new adults with a mind for fantasy. Amy’s life started out with her first unwanted killing. But she had no choice in the matter. She leaves what was left and moved into the human world. But even that is unsafe for Amy. She must build her own army of trusted shifters to hopefully beat the evil headed her way. This story was very different for me. Don’t take me wrong. I enjoyed the story, it was just too many fantasy shifters for me. This is an author I had not read from before. That is why I chose this book. The characters were well liked and knew their place in the story. The book was well thought out, well written and easy to keep up with. If you enjoy fantasy stories this book is for you!

I’ve read one of the author’s previous works and definitely wanted to check out this new one and so glad that I did. Húlí, a nine tailed fox, has known rejection and isolation all his life and fights against demons like himself. As he is escaping some hounds, he ends up at a chance meeting with Xiao and things change after that. Their connection is amazing on how sometimes in life we may face rejection or the sheer devoid of wanting to connect but sometimes we do end up meeting a special someone who will change how we view the world and how it affects us. Along their adventure together, they end up meeting others that join along in their efforts and make for such an enjoyable read!

This is an author that I have loved reading from the first book I picked up by her. Her books are inviting, interesting and engaging. Some take you on an emotional ride and others like this one will take you on an adventure. I found this book to be well written and hard to put down. I enjoyed how the author used her writing skills and attention to details to not only give life to the story but also make it come to life. This is a fast paced fantasy story that is hard to put down and engaging. The characters pull you into their world from the start. They take you on an adventure of romance, danger, and magical. What fate has instored for these two characters you don’t want to miss. It will surprise you in parts and other emotions in other parts. I really enjoyed reading this book and watching the growth of the characters as well as the plot. I highly recommend this book and this author.

Undying Light (The Stella Maris Series Book 1) by Aurora Wildey – Review by Santana Hicks

Undying LightUndying Light by Aurora Wildey
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Kaela is only 18 years old but she knows she is different from any others her age. She has the unique power to heal. Unfortunately she glows when she uses her power making it hard for her to disguise it.

Seth is something that is called an ‘undying’. When I was first introduced to his character, I thought he was a vampire. Being very similar to vampires, only a few things can kill an undying. After a tyrant king almost eradicated their existence, Seth is shocked to find the first one born in a millennia when meeting Kaela at an event. He instantly wants to take her under his wing and teach her their ways before the others can get a hold of her.

Kaela was attacked by a group of men who were trying to steal from the clinic she works at when she is saved by what she thinks is a werewolf. Using her powers to heal him, she risks being found out.

Meanwhile, Terran the werewolf, feels the same way after Kaela sees his human form. They go their separate ways until Terran is put on the court case as her lawyer. Terran takes it upon himself to protect Kaela, clashing with Seth who also wants to protect her.

Kaela has nowhere to go so she has to trust them. At least she has to try to. Can the 3 of them get over themselves long enough to put their differences aside?

When I first started reading this book, I thought it was going to be a typical love triangle situation but I am happy to say I was wrong. There are some romance elements, yes, but the book is mostly plot progressing keeping the reader engaged from start to finish. The three main characters are all so different from each other but also so similar. I like how instead of it being love at first sight, the author took the time to have the trio get to know each other, slowly gaining trust which is much more realistic. I will be keeping an eye open for the next installment!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

The Lone Star Child is the third book in The Gods’ Scion series. It had been a bit since I read the previous two books in the series, but I was easily brought back into the story. I do recommend reading the first two books before this one to get the most enjoyment. Caro, the Space Acolyte, is the last and only hope for the Ophiuchus to find freedom. This is a fast-paced story with great world-building and interesting characters. I enjoy the unique story and do not feel as if I am reading a rehash of another book. If you enjoy YA, fantasy, or action, this book (and series) will grab your attention. I enjoy Caro but also the different Gods and acolytes. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.

The Lone Star Child is the third book in The Gods’ Scion series. I should have paid a little more attention and picked up the first two, but I still thoroughly enjoyed this adventure! I am definitely going to pick up the rest of the series to be able to immerse myself into this world even more, but I highly recommend it even just reading this as a standalone. Long imprisoned and forgotten, Ophiuchus has all but given up. When Caro, a Space Acolyte, gives Ophiuchus renewed hope at freedom, they finally see their future and begin their plan of vengeance. How else do you expect a prisoner to feel other than outraged? This book took me on a rollercoaster of emotions and left me reeling. You’ll definitely enjoy this if YA Fantasy is up your alley, and possibly even if it’s not! Give it a chance as it is captivating, but start at the beginning for the best experience.
