Magic, despair, tragedy and war are just some of the intricacies of this story.
The narrator brings you head first into the story and grabs your attention with both hands. I didn’t read the first book but will be doing so now to see how the story progresses from the beginning.
My heart went out to Ian at the beginning of this story as he was freed from a prison where he was drugged and robbed of the magic and his memories. He couldn’t trust anyone. He was ready for battle at each step.
As he slowly began to gain his memories back and his magic not all decisions were correct. He needs to find The Crown of Stones and the Oracle spell. Will he be able to find it without destroying everything in his path? Will he survive or be captured again?

L. Schneider – Review by Deb Robinson
Heart’s Escape took some time to get into as it was a wonderfully slow building story. It gave you depth into each character and sold you on the author’s storyline. The way each character built their demeanor and were built makes the story that much more enticing. Plus, the climax is built up and the details are specific that you actually feel as though you are in the story. I enjoyed each section of the book as it built up the events in each chapter. The characters each had a special role to play and then left an imprint on your heart of what they were doing in the story as it closed. The ending even left it open for another story by this amazing author. A definite read for those who love magic and mystery!

My 4-year-old grandson was absolutely enamored with this tale, Things Are Shaking by Lois Wickstrom! In this escapade, Caspian’s cousin Belinda also longs for a magic wand. However, how can they come to the rescue when everything starts to tremble? Will they be able to rely on their magic wands? This narrative is delightful and stimulating. The illustrations are vibrant, bringing the narrative to life and keeping little readers hooked. We will certainly be enjoying other Caspian stories, as well as this one!

This story starts out letting the reader know that Hester is no ordinary girl, just like the river is no ordinary river. The river nymphs call to her to join them in the water, and she’s pulled away by a mysterious stranger before she can fall in. I love her wonderful description of the setting (I’m not sure of time and place) and character interaction within the text. Magical realism, history, folklore, green witchery, and adventure line the pages of this wonderful story!
The Mind-Reading Hat, Invisible Magic Wand book 6, is a cute children’s story about Caspian who gets a hat and a thinking stone for his birthday from Grandpa. The hat leads him on adventures and the thinking stone helps him think about ways to help others. Read previous books in the series to find out what other magic things he’s received as gifts! Unique and wonderful idea for a children’s story.

Rovena has her hands full. She must keep the dead man alive. Yep, he arose again but this time with a new soul. And it isn’t as easy as she may think. Rovena is a strong and touch chick that will do what she needs to to survive. She is a hunter. I found this book entertaining. It is wildly unpredictable, and I love this. This is a large factor on what pulled me in. From page 1, I was sucked in by the action (demon fight, anyone?). The characters are well developed. The story has a little of everything in it: humor, mystery, fantasy, paranormal, romance. This is one of the best paranormal books I’ve read this year. I literally couldn’t put it down until I had finished it.

This was a really good read. I enjoyed it a lot. The story follows Chloe as she reluctantly goes back to Faerie to save her sister from mortals who are set on taking over the courts of Faerie. Chloe so far has been content with living a normal life in the mortal realm, but puts her personal feelings aside to save her sister. I really appreciated Chloe’s fierce intelligence and drive even in the midst of danger. Also I’m such a sucker for hard headed romance. You know the kind where the main characters get on each other’s nerves, and yet they can’t stay away from one another. Each swears the other one is the most stubborn person they have ever met and yet when their eyes meet they both have to fight not to blush. Yup that’s kind of the vibe this romance gives. And I loved evert bit of it. I can’t wait to see what comes after this. There was an underlying message that I hope every woman who reads this pays attention to. I won’t spoil it, read it yourself! But all in all if your a fan of Sarah J Maas or Jennifer L. Armentrout then you will like this a lot. Flame and Crystal Thorns is the first book in this series. It’s a spin off of The Fae of Bitter Thorn series by Kay L. Moody. Although it has a few minor spoilers from The Fae of Bitter Thorn, it can be read and enjoyed as a stand alone series. It honestly is motivating me to check out the other series.

Moody – Review by Cynthia Tuck
The best thing for me is finding new authors and new books. This was just the ticket. I love paranormal or fantasy type books and I love the way this one was written. The multi timeline element of this book really works well. I like how the past was used and how it really was the key to everything. The author really has a unique and refreshing story.
I was really hooked from the beginning and I could not put this book down. From the historical part of the book to the present day the story was flawless and really flowed well. I look forward to more from this author and I really hope this is the beginning of a good series.

I absolutely loved this book, and will be looking for more books from this author. I was captivated from the beginning, surprised and delighted! I also was able to have some tasty treats along the way! This was very well written and kept me wanting more, in a very good way throughout the book. I did not want the book to end!

High Heels and Mistletoe by C.A. King Review by Kaitlyn Stewart My stars: 5 out of 5
I love Christmas romance movies. So when I saw this book and read the synopsis I knew I had to read it! Julietta is cursed, every time she comes near a mistletoe something bad happens. Such as breaking a high heel. C.A. King is a wonderful author. She makes you want to know if the curse will break or if this Christmas romance going to end. This story is filled with laughs, magic, and the warm, fuzzy feelings you get when watching a Christmas Hallmark movie. Honestly, this book should be made into a movie!!!

Hidden Magic: A Sanctuary Chronicles Novella by India Kells was a fast past, engaging read, that had me hooked.
This quick short read is packed full of action, romance, emotions, growth and of course, magic. It hooked me right away, and I dove right into this little wonder. As this is a side story to the main series, it can be read as a standalone. So don’t worry about spoilers or feeling lost. As someone who follows this series, it brought me new characters to grow and love, and old ones I have missed. It was a good combo and made me remember why I love this series so much.
Overall this story is fresh, original, and rich with clean creative detail, that just gets your mine racing. I loved the romance aspect, as well as the personal growth both MC’s go through. Again though, our male MC, was a little to over protective for me, and it’s something I have picked up on in this series, but in regards to the others, Brant isn’t as bad. Kat is a fun, strong character that you can’t help but fall for. You get swept up in her magic, and as much as you want to help you can’t. There are some good feels kickers in here, so be warned.
On that note, as this is a short read, and not to risk spoilers, I’m going to leave you with my super high recommendation and my stamp of approval.

Dinner with The Wolf (Misfits & Rogues Series Book 2) by Kimberly Forrest was a steamy, interesting read that had me hooked!
My first read from this author and in this series, I didn’t know what I was getting into. In saying that, I didn’t know it was part of a series at first, but the moment I read the first page I knew I missed something. Though this book did read like a standalone, there are elements that pertains to the first book, that I now need to go back and read. But overall, as the MC’s were the main focus, I didn’t feel too lost or felt like I was left out of the loop.
As for this steamy read, the author does a good job of making you not like our female MC, Vivian. I was having hard, wish she would trip and break her neck, vibes. But as the story went on, and I got to seen under her mask of vapidness, I grew to like her and really started rooting for her and Jules. Jules, he has everything you want in an alpha crazy werewolf, but it wasn’t the unlikeable kind of alpha. The protectiveness was there, but it wasn’t off putting or demanding. I love the progress of their love, and didn’t mine the quick escalation, as they have known one another for decades. This was way over due for them, and once they finally got all the misunderstandings out of the way, things got heated, in a good way.
Overall this book is a must read from me, cause I’ll tell you, I had this book read in one sitting. And as much as I love the fun conclusion, I need more from this world, as I believe the author has something epic planned. So please take my super high recommendation and my golden stamp of approval, that you will get hooked on this hot, love affair, with a touch of sexy madness.

I’m Kristy and I live in the U.K. I have always written short stories and poetry. I went to university to study acting which I loved, but my real passion has always been writing. So now I write the kind of stories I would have wanted to read as a teen. “Kiera’s Quest-Awakenings” is my first e-book. There are four in the teen fantasy series, ‘Sacrifices,’ ‘Perceptions,’ and ‘Choices.'( Muse It Up Publishing.) My YA contemporary romance book, “Just Sam,” Is available on Amazon in print & on Kindle as is my YA fairy tale retelling, ‘Cinderfella.’ “Summer’s End,” a YA Paranormal romance series, published again with ‘Muse It Up Publishing.’ This title’s also available in print and e-book. I’m currently editing the second book to this series. I have a joint YouTube channel, ‘TWO WORDY.’ We discuss books, writing, movies etc. I love reading YA angels, vamps etc. I love my kids and hopefully one day they will enjoy my crazy tales!
