First reading this book was interesting. Being the first book by this author was new to me. I’m glad I took a chance on it! Chloe is an apothecary for her little town, recently coming back from the Faerie world she’s ready to be done with it and contempt to say in the human world. Then out of no where a Fae shows up on her doorstep and she much to her dismay has to go back to help this sickness from spreading into the human world. The writing was done beautifully, and I felt like that the book just drew me in. Seeing as this was a spin off, I didn’t realize what it was. You don’t need to read the other series to read this one. Will Chloe let love back into her heart? Will she be able to save her sister? Read to find out! Fair warning it does end in a cliffhanger and a excellent one that begs you wanting for more!

Moody – Review by Crystal Jimmo
Here is another fast paced, suspenseful, emotional rollercoaster. I didn’t think this author could break me down again. I thought she had done her worst. I was wrong! This is a continuation of Heart’s story. While out on his own for 6 months, all he wants is to be with Crystal. He is so angry and the cops are doing nothing to find her murderer. But there is Marc, a detective who is getting no help from the dirty cops she is stuck working with. Something is rotten, and she is getting the dirty end of it all. There will be no spoilers here! You have to read it for yourself. This author has continued to write stories for the Satan’s Devils MC and the strength the characters must endeavor. I was captured before the first chapter ended. Had even cried before chapter 2 began. I recommend you start this series at Book 1. Meet the characters and their places in this story. This is an audible book and the narrators are fantastic. Listening to this story makes it so much more intense. I Love This Series and the Author who wrote it.

This is my first book I have read from this author and so happy that I did. This book is full of magic, fantasy, danger and intrigue. This story you meet Chloe, who is mortal and town apothecary. I love her strong sense of helping others and is content and happy with where she is. Things change when someone from her past calls on her to help. At first Chloe does not want to return for Faerie but learns she really does not have much of a choice….she much save her sister and others. Mortal beings are stronger than ever in Faerie…and not in a good way. This epic journey of Chloe and Quintus really immerses you on an adventure with some twists and turns. Great story, and the ending!! I cannot wait to continue this this series.

Moody – Review by Lorralei Hoerner
Flame and Crystal Thorns is the first book in this YA Fae fantasy tale. It is full of suspense and is highly entertaining. It is an exciting spin-off of The Fae of Bitter Thorn series. Kay has given us a clever plot and another exciting new world. She takes us into the intrigue and action, danger and angst and an unusual illness where it’s easy to like the characters and want to help in any way you can. Faerie is threatened and her sister held captive by mortals with iron.
Chloe is torn between helping the towns people or returning to the Faerie world.
There is also an enemies-to-lovers play between Quintus and Chloe with a forbidden lover’s story as well.

This is actually the first book by this author that I’ve read. I loved everything about it! I will be going back to read the rest right away. I lost sleep because of this book and I regret nothing. Chloe was absolutely amazing and I just loved going on her journey with her. Also, the world building was fantastic. Such a great book!

Moody – Review by Whitney Morrison
I really enjoyed this fantasy adventure. The author does an amazing job of creating the worlds our characters are in. I love the connection between Chloe and Quintus. There’s is a hate/love relationship but you can feel the attraction between them jump right off the page.
Chloe is a human girl. She works in the mortal world healing the sick. She never wants to return back to Faerie. But then a blast from her past returns insisting she needs to return to Faerie to help save everyone there. Chloe is still adamant she isn’t going to go until people are getting sick in her world and dying. Chloe realises that what is happening in Faerie is effecting people in her world and to save them she needs to save the people of Faerie.
So we are now on an adventure filled with danger and excitement. Every turn has a twist and as time goes on, will her feelings and connection with Quintus become too strong for her to ignore? Is she even able to save the world of Faerie? And what will the consequences be if she does fail, not only for the people of Faerie but for her people in the mortal world?

Moody – Review by Kerry Carr
This book is full of magic and fae, what more could a girl want? I got pulled into this magical story from the very first page and I just couldn’t set it down. The details come to life right before your eyes and the characters are easy to relate to. Chloe didn’t have any plans to return to faery but circumstances bring her back so she can help save those she cares about most. She has to gather all of her courage and strength that she never thought she possessed. Chloe learns so many important life lessons along the way and really grows as a person. This book is full of romance, action, danger and magic and is one book you definitely won’t want to miss.

I enjoyed this paranormal story. This is the first book in this series and what a great start it is. I enjoyed the author’s writing skills that made the story come to life. I also enjoyed how this author used details to make the story pop. This is a well written story that is full of action and you don’t want to miss it. The characters are strong, connectable and supportive toward each other. This is a fast paced story that is easy to read and hard to put down. I enjoyed being pulled into the story from the start. The growth of the plot made the story entertaining and had me coming back for more. This is a story where facing your enemy face to face is either going to take them down or it could be death for these characters. I really enjoyed this story and what the characters brought to the story. This filled my afternoon with a paranormal adventure. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens.

Angel/vampire hybrids, hot brothers for your mate and demons? Yes please! This book had me hooked from the beginning. I really enjoyed the different take on vampires. Toya made the main characters very loveable yet complex. In my opinion it was an enjoyable and easy read. I can’t wait to see what happens next!

This book was amazing! Sexy angel/vampire hybrids? Two fated mates?? Oh and demons?? How could you want anything more? I’d never read anything from Toya Richardson before but let me just say I’m hooked! Right from the start, this book draws you in. It’s hot and sexy and romantic. I loved these characters and I must commend Ms. Richardson for her creativity. I’d never heard of angel/vampire hybrids before. Well done! Everyone should check out this book.
Angelina is a human living a normal life…if you don’t count the H-O-T dreams she is having about two guys at night. Her life is turned upside down when she finds herself in danger…and those two same guys show up to save her. Imagine her surprise when she finds out that she is the mate of both of these vampire/angel hybrids. Salvatore and Luca will become even stronger when they bond with Angelina…which is why there are forces out to stop it from happening. And if it doesn’t happen…then the world as they know it will cease to exist. When Angelina is forced to make the decision that will determine the course of the world…what will she do?!? This was such a good book. It is a twist on the normal fated mates book by adding a second mate and all the different characters determined to keep it from happening. I was entertained the whole way through…and am excited to see what happens next!

I have been a fan of this author for quite some time now, and I still to this day fall in love with every single book they create and write. This one was no different. I was sucked in and held while I watched the story take flight and unravel on its own terms. The writing and story was amazing. Loved it!
I have always been a person who love s paranormal novels. This one was certainly one that took home the cake though. I was given darkness with action and the light of love. I was very connected to all the characters. I felt I was right there with them fighting the evils that they had to face, along with their decisions which at times did not come easy. Very gripping and compelling novel! I was truly intrigued! I cant wait to read more in the series! This is a series I will very much enjoy with all my heart and soul!
As always, this author has created a world and book of characters that are well, indescribable. I was hooked and in deep with this book! A must read for sure! Highly recommend this novel and author!

Intriguing and mysterious from the start, the story draws the reader in. It took a bit for me to become fully immersed in the story, but once you are in, there is no putting it down. The dreams in the start blur lines and makes you question what is real. Of course, the story got me once a romance was alluded to. I’m a sucker for romance. The characters were all well developed and relatable. The setting was immersive, and the plot twists just kept surprising me. Definitely an enjoyable read, and a series that I am looking forward to continuing.

Brazeau – Review by Ashleyann Sanabria
This book is different from what I normally read, I usually just go for the paranormal but thought to switch it up a bit and I couldn’t be happier in doing so. This book was incredible. The story and conflicts and just everything in it kept me on my seat and wanting to read it more. This book really took on a classic and made it into a new way to look at the paranormal. The story flowed so well together that it never made me feel lost and had to turn back again. I really enjoyed the characters but especially Greer she is strong and could sense things and see things that no one else could. I really can’t wait to know if there will be more to this story and what more it could offer.

Brazeau – Review by Jennifer Reimer
Blood & Ravens: A dark, paranormal romance (The Casket Girls #1) by A.D. Brazeau
This is the first book I’ve read by the author. Blood and Ravens will have you hooked from the beginning. It’s also the first book in The Casket Girls Series.
Greer was living the best she could in Paris. That changes when she’s taken off the streets and thrown on a boat. She dreams of this mysterious man and finds that he’s real. The quote I chose for Greer is: “My head feels fine. I’m curious about something. The three of you volunteered for this, as did almost everyone else. Why? Why leave your home to find a husband on the other side of the world? You have no idea what you’ll be getting.”
Theron knows he shouldn’t fall for his prey, but the little rabbit intrigues him. He wants to get back in Hades’ good graces, but that isn’t going to work. Now he’s feeling things he shouldn’t for Greer and that can be dangerous. The quote I chose for Theron is: “Well, you’re right about one thing, your friend is at the end. I told that blasted fool to go easy on her. She’s supposed to last until he can move on to the husband. But you’re wrong if you think you can do anything about it. You, my little rabbit, can’t hurt us. Even if you were at full strength.”

Such an awesome book, I truly enjoyed reading it. Bake off is the second book in the series and continues to give insight to cat and Robyn. There’s adventure and I believe a little bit of magic. I loved reading this to my girls. The humor and recipes are perfect. Definitely read Bake Believe before reading this book.

Bake Believe by Cori Cooper is such a fun, original book. I sat down with my son and we devoured the first book in the Bake Believe series. Cat is your typical teen. All she wants is a simple, fun last day of summer. She was very relatable to my middle son, who is the same age. The magic infused into the story was so fun and whimsical. We both got a kick out of the recipes included in the story. This is a great book for all ages. With a fun plot and well-written characters, we both greatly enjoyed this book.

When Cameron learned that we were reading the second book in the series, he was very excited. Bake Off is a wonderful YA read that once again is enjoyable for all ages. Laughs, twists, and a bit of good old teenage angst are the perfect combination. It was great to delve further into Cat’s family and friend relationships. These books took me back to my distant teen years. My son and I once again got to share our time with the wonderful characters in this series.

I loved this book, it was very suspenseful, and had a lot going on in good way. I found things added up nicely a i read, and I questioned literally everything! I was at the edge of my seat while reading!
This book was a well written mystery story, Suspense was amazing and also the action. They perfectly complimented each other through out the book. I found secrets were the main object of the story, I could not prepare myself for when something greater than the secrets I knew of came to light. Shock face was made with my facial expressions. That’s why I loved this book so much, it kept you guessing, and wondering what would occur next. Nothing was what it seemed! Amazing writing! Loved it!
Fantastic writing and for sure a very amazing author as well. This book is a must read. I read it all in almost one sitting. I could not put it down. Highly recommend this must read book! It’s amazing!

A Veil of Gods and Kings by Nicole Bailey 5 out of 5 stars
“It’s going to rip my heart into pieces and leave nothing but shreds remaining. And centuries—millennia from now— I will still bleed for you.” – A Veil of Gods and Kings
Apollo, a deity, running through the motions of unfulfilled relationships, and an unwanted destiny bound to him. Hyacinth, a prince, striving for perfection at every turn, but never thinking of himself and the world outside of his palace.
Apollo is half mortal, half god, or a deity, and is avoiding his fate, unwilling to accept his spot as god of the sun. He drowns himself in pointless and meaningless relationships, keeping a veil over his identity and his heart. Never letting anyone get too close, except his mortal sister, Temi. Temi, perfect at everything in every way, but surrounded by pain and sorrow in her past, like Apollo. All they have is each other, or so they thought… Apollo had no choice in his life, except one, either ascend and become the sun god, or spend a year mentoring under mister perfect, Hyacinth. Apollo had to decide which was the better of two evils, but he chose the option that would keep his sister by his side. Spend a year with the dreadful Hyacinth. Prince Hyacinth, mister perfect, in looks, charm, work, being a son, brother, everything. To Apollo he was obnoxious and insistent, or so he thought. Prince Hyacinth thought Apollo had an over-inflated ego, and could not be around him for more than five seconds, but wanted to please the god, Zeus, and keep his city safe. These two together, sparked a dangerous fire that burned hot. They taught each other things they never knew existed, and experienced life together. While Apollo was falling in deep, Temi had a mind of her own. That was releasing Epiphany of her princess duties, and taught her how to let go and live life. At first a distraction, sparked a friendship that was unbreakable.
In this retelling of Prince Hyacinth and Apollo, lies a story of enemies-to-lovers romance. But Nicole could not stop there, she twisted this retelling into SO MUCH MORE. Finishing the book, as the reader, I am left with wanting more. Even though the beginning started off slow, it was so important to build this world. I have never read a retelling of a Greek mythology story like this. Each character was eloquently built, not just in the world itself, but their back stories, their emotions and their relationships. Each chapter unfolded a new leaf to each character’s story. Besides the slow build, due to building such a breathtaking world, there was not large gut wrenching moments until the last fifty pages, especially the last three chapters of the story. Thankfully, Nicole was able to keep your attention even during the slower moments. The romance was very slow burn, and not graphic, vague in a sense, but still showed the affection of each character. If you are looking for a romance with some description, but not very detailed or in depth, to the point of, “holy smokes that is smut”, this is the book for you! I cannot wait to read the next book in this series!

This is a fascinating paranormal story. Avery finds herself brutally attacked and has no idea what happened to her or who was responsible for it. Horrible, violent murders start to occur all around her and she starts to wonder if her attack is related. Luys doesn’t want to get involved but he can’t stand to watch her suffer in constant danger. He doesn’t want to reveal his past but he doesn’t see any other way to help her. They’re drawn to each other, each not sure if it’s safe to trust and they have to face so much danger together. This book is full of action, romance, suspense and the paranormal and it’s told from different viewpoints. I enjoyed that because it gives you additional insights into the story and each of the unique characters. This was an amazing story that you won’t want to miss and I absolutely cannot wait to read more from this author.

After going out for drinks with friends Avery is viciously attacked. Who could have done this? Someone she knows or a complete stranger? Who can she trust? Enter her hot, brooding neighbor Luys. He keeps to himselg mostly due to his personal preference, but also to keep people safe. Trouble seems to follow him wherever he goes. When he sees his attractive neighbor struggling to stay upright trying to make it to her vehicle he steps in to help. He only meant to drop her off at the hospital, but ends up staying to make sure everything was okay and take her back home. Why does Luys feel the need to try and protect Avery? Will their attraction turn into more? Will Avery get the closure she needs by seeing her attacker be put behind bars?
This story was a little different than the paranormal stories I’m used to, but I did enjoy it. Even though this is the second book in a series I didn’t feel lost starting with this one. I will most likely check out book one because I don’t want to feel like I missed out on something that may have been important or explained in this book.

Thomson – Review by Charlisa Wahtomy-Alba
This book drew me in from the start. When I jumped into this book I was a little unsure if I would be able to follow since I hadn’t read the first book in this series but I found that I had no trouble at all. I am now definitely going to go back and read book one since I enjoyed this one so much. I found this story to be original and intriguing. I read this book in one sitting because I was so enthralled in the story line. I needed to know where this story was going. This book has a lot of history while still remaining current. This author did a wonderful job writing a romantic, paranormal, dramatic read.

Thomson – Review by Candida Hopper
A Long Kiss Goodbye is a nice dark treat and probably one of the best books I have read this year. It gets all your senses kicked into high gear. The story is fast-paced, thrilling and I love the way HD has cleverly woven all the delicate threads contained in this twisty plot. It is intriguing and suspenseful, steamy and a page turner that you are unable to put down. With dark secrets and lies around every corner, assault and murder looming in the dark, evil lurking in the shadows, it’s a wonder anyone is safe. Intrigue, action packed drama, thrills and suspense are the name of the game.
This is the follow on from A Kiss Before Dying which I discovered after I had finished but I did not feel I was missing a thing. This is my first-time reading HD’s work and I enjoyed the writing so much that I am going to go and devour the rest of her work.
I am not giving anything away because this is one little gem you need to discover the intensity of the story all by yourself. This is one of two books that you don’t want to miss out on.

Thomson – Review by Jenni Bishop
This is an enjoyable and exciting paranormal romance with plenty of suspense to keep any reader hooked. When Avery is brutally attacked, there is no motive, and no suspect. Then days later when a neighbour is found dead, the second mutilated body to be found, it’s presumed that a serial killer is on the loose in Scottsdale. When Avery learns that her attack was not random or normal, she does not know who to trust, she even sees her next door neighbour, Luys act of kindness as being sinister. Meanwhile, Luys has his own secrets and a past he wants to keep hidden. When Avery is attacked, Luys knows that a killer deadlier than any human is to blame, and that he needs to protect her. Luys knows that if he trusts Avery he will be exposing his dark history. With a killer, “filled with a seething need for vengeance”, on the loose the couple join forces to find the killer, knowing they might not survive. As their attraction grows they start to wonder if a relationship between them is doomed from the start. The characters were well defined and the chemistry between Avery and Luys really came across in the narrative. This had a fast paced storyline with plenty of plot twists and turns that kept me happily turning the pages.

Moody – Review by Ashley Johnson
An excellent collection from a multitude of great authors. So many different styles of writing, different takes on paranormal romance and a whole lot of fun. With Witch switch, I found this story to be a steamy, drama filled quick read! Rafe being stuck with Meredith, seems like the worst fate for him. His love for Cheyenne though, gives him all the courage he needs to go against his parents and what is expected of him to be with her. At first I thought Cheyenne was going to be a weak damsel in distress type, but she proved me wrong when it came down to fighting for her family and the man she loved. There is drama, steamy romance and magic all packed into a short story! I look forward to Reading about Justina, Cheyenne’s sister. I am also hoping we get to see what becomes of the nasty witch Meredith.

Margaret Rose, you are one hell of a woman. In the century you were in, it’s amazing how your story is. Also this bring a true story from her mom is even more amazing. There is so much heartfelt moments, family drama, the war around them, and so much more. She goes through life with her chin up and conquers what’s ahead. Please read this book. You won’t regret it!
In the first book, Cat discovered something with baking. Now she’s on a mission to learn more. She goes to the source of her family’s bakery that consist of her Great Grammy and Aunt Jojo. During this time, she has to help with many tasks and learn what baking with magic can really do. It was a fun read!
