No Rest for the Wicked is the first book of the Life is Hell Series. I am so happy to have found this author Naomi Valkyrie. I first had read her House Valdis Series( if you haven’t read it I highly suggest you read it. It’s really good!). This story is a fast- paced read with MMF a trope. I made quick work of this. That’s how good it was 😀. After killing cheating husbands for about 200 years, Delilah takes a much needed break in a small town, Or so she thought lmao cause what she thought was a small town turned out to be filled with paranormal beings . I loved Delilah. She was a kickbutt , smart, strong main female character. I can not wait to read the next four books. I really enjoy reading books published by this author. I can’t wait to read more. I highly recommend reading this and the others 🥰
Also I love to cover its super cute!!!!!!

This is the second series I have started by Naomi Valkyrie. I love her writing style. Her booms are short but are great stories. No Rest For the Wicked follows Delilah, a demon who sold her soul as a human. She is looking for peace and normalcy and not just hurting and killing when she leaves the city for a small town called Juniper Lake. She may have thought a small town would fill what she was looking for but she finds more than she bargained for.
It is a fast read but worth it. I recommend checking out Naomi Valkyrie’s books. You won’t be disappointed.

Delilah is a demon who lives in the city and owns a bar. She also is a killer but a killer with morals. She hunts bad people. Even demons need a break sometime. To get away from it all, Delilah goes to the small town of Juniper lake and rents a cabin. She longs for a mundane vacation.
Unfortunately, life has other plans. After a couple nights of feeling the tug of a summoning spell, Delilah decides to find out who keeps trying to summon her and unexpectedly gets bound to a trio of witches. Her vacation quickly gets turned to work when she is given a list of tasks to do. It also doesn’t help that Delilah seems to be drawn to the towns sheriff, Malakahi. No way could their relationship work… right?
Delilah has to try to break the bonds if she wants to go back to her vacation time but it may be harder than it looks. Especially when Malakahi seems to be everywhere.
I loved the premise of a demon wanting to settle down, it gives them a bit of humanity. Delilah may be a demon but she still seemed like a caring and sassy sweetheart. I really enjoyed her character.
Naomi Valkyrie is such an amazing writer. I literally have added most of their books to my to be read list. They have such a unique and vivid way of writing. It’s never a dull moment no matter which of their books you read. Can’t wait to read the second book of this series!

I swear Naomi can do no wrong! I absolutely loved this story. Delilah is a Demon with morals. Malakhi is mysterious. There is attraction between the two. There are a few twists in this story and a few things that caught me off guard. Definitely a great read for those into the supernatural. What I like most about all of Naomi’s stories is that everyone gets represented.

Delilah is a weary demon seeking solace in the quaint town of Juniper Lake. Hoping for a break from her monotonous existence, Delilah instead finds herself entangled in a centuries-old history involving witches, demon hunters, and her own kind. As she navigates the town’s secrets, she discovers that even the Sheriff isn’t as he appears. The characters, each with their own quirks and complexities, leaves readers anticipating what lies ahead in this series.

No Rest for the Wicked (Life is Hell Series) by Naomi Valkyrie – Review by Rita White
/0 Comments/in Reviews /by Rita WhiteThis is the first book of the Life is Hell Series. What a ride! This book is a short, fast-paced book that has a bunch of characters that you learn a lot about in a short amount of time. The author takes each character and goes in depth so you get a good feel for each of them. My hope is that in the other 4 books, she will expand on each character.
Delilah is a demon trying to go on vacation to rest and see what a semi normal life would be like. She picks a small little town and rents a cabin by the lake. There is a nosey sheriff, a diner and other things you would find in a small town, but it also has demons, demon hunters, witches, and other creatures that you will just have to read to find out about. Oh, and the cover is wicked good! Do yourself a favor and read this book!

Another great book by Naomi Valkyrie. Even demons need a vacation! Delilah sold her soul to get revenge on an ex and now she’s a demon who kills cheaters. Normally she enjoys her job but lately she’s just not feeling it. Even demons need a vacation! Right? So she takes off with no destination in mind to find some peace and quiet. Just when she thinks she has found it, fate has other plans.
This book has demons, shifters, witches, a little romance and more. I really enjoyed Delilah’s character. Her whole I kill people but I still like to curl up with a good book is so my kind of attitude. And her need for some peace! I recommend you pick up this quick read.

A surprise inheritance that leads to an even bigger surprise of the existence of a magical world… it’s just too much for Tanjie to handle. She just wants everything to go back to normal. She’s now part of a world that’s been expecting her all the while she thought it was nothing more than fairytales.
Alaric is a werewolf in the town that Tanjie moves to. He knows who he is and what’s good for his kind and what’s a hinderance to his people: witches.
But what happens when there is such a strong pull, an insane connection, that it makes the both of them question what they’ve always known to be true and what they’ve been told by the people they trust. Everything is not as it seems. Secrets have been kept on both sides and now both Tanjie and Alaric are having to make choices they never thought they would have to make. Tanjie must learn how to navigate this new world and how to control her powers while Alaric must decide where his loyalties lie, and risk losing either his people or Tanjie.
Please please please take some time to read this story! It has so much going on without it being too overwhelming! I highly recommend this book, and I know I’ll be on the lookout for more work from this author!!!

Dark moon secrets is the first book in the Witch Moon series by Lillian Rose. It is slow to start with a lot of character building once you get past this it is a rather intricate and intriguing story about Tanjie.
She was born into a life that destiny had predetermined and she never knew about until it was too late to seek advice from her loved ones. Mystery surrounds the book store which is a human front for the world that she belongs to. Witches and shapeshifters, secrets, sexual innuendo, forbidden attractions, tension and mysteries this book has it all.
I loved the fact that this book is set in Australia and as an Australian the areas were familiar to me.

Tanjie befriends an older woman in her apartment building and becomes close. When the woman died, she left strict instructions and a bookshop to Tanjie in her will. Tanjie has no intention of running this bookshop in the middle of nowhere but the rules state she must run the shop for a year before she is to make any decisions about the shop.
Tanjie makes her way to the town with hopes of staying 2 weeks max but destiny has another plan. Almost instantly an accident happens rendering her car and only escape useless for the time being. It seems as if someone or something is making her stay in this strange town. She meets Luna who is the current caretaker of the shop and finds out that Tanjie is actually an untrained witch who was prophesied to make a difference in the coven.
Alaric is the son of the Alpha of the Dark Moon pack, he is mysterious and sexy but also a bit of a wildcard within the pack. He always has to prove himself to his father but it’s never enough. When Al meets Tanjie he can’t help but instantly be attracted to her. A wolf shifter and a witch? Forbidden! He can’t seem to get her out of his mind and keeps finding ways to go back to her. If they are caught, it could ruin both of their futures within their respective groups.
I read another series from this author and really enjoyed it so when I saw this book, I knew I had to read it! This author does a really good job writing paranormal romances. They write each character in such detail that you can immerse yourself and become one with the character. The author also does a fantastic job describing the world so you get a feel of what life is like. With some steamy romance, detailed enough for intrigue but vague enough to not be crude, you are in for a treat.
I cannot wait for the second book of the series!

I have been enjoying reading all of Lilliana Rose’s books and series. Her ways of bringing the character’s perspectives to view have me loving fantasy romance more than before.
Tanjie works at a bookshop and she does not know that she is a witch yet. She had trouble accepting the truth at first but then she met Alaric, I believe he is the Omega in the pack of wolf shifters. Who started attacking the witches because they had control over the wolves.
The reason 4 stars is that I am still a newbie in this genre and growing into loving wolf shifters and witches with vampires.

Dark Moon Secrets (The Witch Moon Series Book 1) by Lilliana Rose – Review by Jessica Stone
This book is set in Australia, which gives it a fun little vibe, I had a blast picturing the locations, towns, and environments that this story took place in since I am from the US and I haven’t read many books based on Australia.
Tanjie is just an ordinary girl, who’s gone through far to much in her short life so far, after losing her parents when she was younger in a car crash she manages to pull herself and life together and start to make something of herself. That is until one day a friend of hers Marie suddenly passes away, leaving instructions for her to take over ownership of a bookstore of Marie’s under a condition that she can only sell the business after she has worked in the shop for one year. Suddenly Tanjie is thrust into a world she thought only existed in books. She’s a witch, and it’s time for her to come into her powers and help her family’s coven keep control and balance in this crazy world. But all Tanjie wants is to live a normal life, one of her own design, that and maybe a quick piece of tall dark and handsome Alaric. Alaric is a wolf shifter with a superiority complex, he wants to be his own free man outside of the pack able to choose his own path, but his father, the alpha has other plans for Alaric and his future, that don’t include freedom, or cute little witches.
I love that Tanji and Al are immediately attracted to one another, as much as I love a good, one falls first type of story, I can’t help but crave the angst and steamy banter between to characters equally attracted to each other. Their banter is fun and engaging, it leaves you wanting more from them with every page you turn, and the spice between them had me fanning myself at points.
I’m interested to see where the author takes this series from here, this book is kinda left on a cliff hanger, with things being up in the air, I hate slash love the not knowing what’s going to happen to our main characters, especially when I’ve fallen so thoroughly in love with them both. The unpredictable aspect of this book paired with the chemistry of our main characters and the world building make for a tantalizing book to consume, and you will, consume it that is. Once I started I couldn’t put it down. I Can’t wait to see what becomes of my girl Tanjie’s in the next book!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Fate or choice. Everything is about to change. This is the first book in the new series by the incredible Lilliana Rose. Having read her Protector Wolf Shifter Series, I was very excited and looking forward to this new series. Dual perspectives of Tanjie and Alaric as they face life altering changes that lead to them meeting and so much more.
Tanjie has had a beyond tragic and painful past year and seems the fates weren’t done with her when she sadly finds her elderly neighbor Maria had passed away in her apartment. Since her parents’ “accident” she had focused on finding her own path and making her own choices. Her entire life she rejected her parents “hippie ways” and though odd she found comfort with her neighbor Maria. Like her parents she too had “hippie ways” and rejected tea and tarot card readings at every mention. Only after Maria’s passing and finding her will leaving Tanjie with a “bookstore” is she forced to confront the path she rejected long ago. Alaric is the son of the alpha and is set to take charge of the pack when the time comes but he wants it now. He is restless and always searching for something more when a scent quickly becomes an addiction. The new owner of the “shop” Tanjie draws him in, unable to fight the desire and pull just her smile urges him to finally open his eyes and understand his father’s warnings of power and respect. Tanjie demands to know the truth from Luna, Maria’s friend that was running the shop, but nothing prepared her for the truth. With the help of the sexy bad boy Alaric that drew her to him and the urge to learn more about her power she was finding more reasons to stay. No longer wanting to run back to the city and forget the little town with its secrets.
What will happen when the wolves finally strike demanding power over themselves? Can Tanjie defend herself when the “war” begins? Will Alaric and Tanjie find balance in their species to overcome being forbidden lovers? This author always makes a “normal” world seem so much more when the blinders are pulled back and the supernatural thrives in the shadows of everyday life. Forbidden love is always a favorite troupe and more so when it involves those going against “the rules” and finding their own path, making a better world for all. I was left speechless and breathless by the time I reached the end and instantly began hunting for a release date to book two, New Moon Fate, to see where Tanjie’s story continues. Will she see her wolf again? My eyes are open and waiting for updates. This series is an instant favorite with just book one.
