Inserts a round of finger snaps. This story was the ultimate wild card – I thought I had it pegged, but oh no, it was so much more than that! The characters were all kinds of awesome, each one more unique than the last. Sinister you took unpredictability to a whole new level. Now I’m obsessed, and I need more of these characters in my life, stat – like, it’s a necessity!

The ring had been crafted under the cursed blood red moon. The demons would give the ring to the hunters, waiting for the demon angel to be born and the hunters would then follow its commands.
Driving Into the Night by Amanda Kay is an urban fantasy with paranormal elements and characters, drama, angst, action, adventure, mystery, and high stakes. This is my first read by Amanda Kay, so I went into this book totally blind, as I had no idea what the book was about, or what to expect from one of Ms. Kay’s stories. I thought I was getting my hands on a dark and gritty thriller- and was excited to see what would come. What I discovered is actually not dark, or gritty, and is a MM romance. Which is fine, because I read all different genres- but when I eventually checked the blurb, the fact that this is an MM romance isn’t even alluded to – so someone who loves fantasy/paranormal romance, but doesn’t enjoy MM romance might need to know this fact before they dive in, and in my opinion, there really should have been some mention of this on the blurb. Kenai and Mikael are caught on opposite sides of a long-fought conflict- hunter and angel-demon- and a cursed ring out for blood. But what happens when feelings get in the way of the ‘mission’? Follow along on this story of opposites attract- and the power of love. I was really intrigued by the whole ring and pact scenario and would have loved to have discovered more about that, but the story doesn’t go into that aspect of the synopsis much, or even at all…. which was disappointing. Plus, I found the story a little confusing at times, and where the story seemed to lack ‘focus’ on the main thread/s- while there was a lot of frustration with repetitive information, especially in the form of thoughts/internal dialogue. I just didn’t find my groove here at all, which made for a frustrating read because it should have been right up my alley. Happy Reading…

This is a novella only for those over 18, with multiple trigger warnings which isn’t for the faint of heart.
A couple in love fall into traps of suspicion and deception and lose trust in each other, this causes a spiral into violence and blood, but will they be able to reconnect, or will the stones they throw break the glass house they are living in?
This is a dark romance with a sprinkling of fantasy as a couple spiral into darkness and try to find their way out.
This was such a fun read! It was silly and so very funny! I laughed out loud so many times. I love Naomi’s writing and her stories. They are always such a joy to read. It doesn’t matter what her book is about, I am instantly pulled in and just want to consume the entire thing in one sitting. I really don’t know what to say exactly about this story in particular. The characters are unique, hilarious, and just wacky. I highly suggest just picking this book for a very entertaining quick read!
I am not a huge fan of the paranormal genre but this book intrigued me and it did not disappoint. It was quirky, fun and imaginative. I have read several of Naomi Valkyrie’s books now and they are all well written and will draw you in and make you feel as if you are part of the story. Watching as Lock discovers the changes in himself is both comical and horrifying and will keep you reading just to discover what is next for the poor guy. Quick read and so worth it.
This is one of my absolute favorite authors and have read countless books by them. Somehow they knock each and every one out of the park, and this is no exception. There is a magnificent blend of paranormal happenings, wonderful humor, and romance throughout. I definitely laughed loud enough to startle my family multiple times. You will be gripped from the very first chapter because we have to know about the gumball! I’ll never understand how the author writes such short stories without sacrificing quality every time, but you won’t hear me complaining. If you’re looking for a quick and unique read that will make you laugh and feel for each character while getting lost in a vivid world, pick this book up right now! I cannot wait to grab another book by this author because I can’t get enough.
How stinking cute of a book!! It was fast paced and a quick read. It was fun, crazy and chaotic and had me laughing throughout the whole book because of the ridiculousness of it. Pure fun! Oh and it has a cigar smoking octopus named Clyde….. This is a short novella of paranormal romance (m/m) with a bit of magic and pure chaos. I haven’t laughed at a book in a long time and I so enjoyed my time reading this book! I am giving this book 5+ stars just because of how it made me laugh and forget about everyday life. Good stuff!

Yet another wonderful book by Naomi Valkyrie! I was so hooked, I read the entire book while waiting to get my tires changed! All of her books so far have literally grabbed me from page one and did not let go. I love that you never fully know what you’re going to get when you pick up the book but are never disappointed. Magic, shifters, romance and a little trouble makes for a perfect story! I can’t decide if Clyde is my favorite character or if it’s Brix. I would love to learn more about her. I’d also love to learn more about Jinx. Like usual with Naomi Valkyrie, I highly recommend you reading this book. You won’t regret it!
I really enjoy reading stories by Naomi Valkyrie, they are always a fun ride. This one was no different. This 100 page read was just as this author said, it was indeed a wacky story, but I loved it. I mean after reading the synopsis she had me at the cigar-smoking octopus named Clyde 😂 how does she always come up with the most unique stuff. And her vivid imagery is amazing, she really knows how to paint a scene. Also the characters were developed awesomely. I think my favorite was Lock lol. In this funny paranormal M/M romance has literally everything youd want in a story. I always look forward to reading more and more of her stories. I really hope we get to see more from this world.
This book is a quick and fun read. One impulsive purchase changes Lockwood’s life. He soon finds himself immersed in a different world that he never knew existed. Lockwood goes on an adventure that pulls you in and keeps you engaged to the end. This may be a short read but it is full of interesting characters and fun times.
I absolutely love this author and read nearly everything she puts out. This one had me laughing out loud many times and I easily read it in one sitting. Valkyrie is phenomenal when it comes to writing relatable characters even though her plot lines are usually out of this world. She amazes me every time because I get pulled in on the first page and she doesn’t let me go until the very end. The characters in this book are very unique; however, still extremely relatable. If you are looking for a good laugh and something quick then this is the read for you!

This reminded me of some of Naomi’s other writings I have read. She has a very unique story telling that I really enjoy. She creates these characters and settings that are complex yet she is able to tell her stories in a novela type style. They are short stories but give so much information and character growth in the short amount of time. I really enjoy reading them.

Naomi Valkyrie, often called a Firebrand Provocateur, brings her unique Autistic perspectives and curiosities to life by weaving tales of deep connection, mystery, and romance. She is inspired by being able to spontaneously create a thought that takes on a life of its own, opening up new adventures for her readers.
The Paranormal Romance and Urban Fantasy realms are particular areas of interest for Naomi as they allow for the vast exploration of magic, adventure, and the impossible while creating diverse characters that her readers connect with on an emotional level.
When she isn’t attending to familial connections, Naomi loves a dark, comfy reading space surrounded by the symbolism of her spiritual archetypes and her daemon/familiars, while she sips her tea and immerses herself in imagination.
Unrequited Love is the first book in the Magic and Heartache series by E.L. Roux. This book captured my attention from the moment I laid eyes on the cover- and then the blurb sealed the deal for me. I could do with a charmed coffee or 100 in my life right about now… Jordan and her friend and business partner, Perri, operate The Top Up coffee shop and café, providing delicious morsels and charmed beverages to humans and paranormals alike. Business is booming and everything should be coming up roses, except that her ex, Nathan and his new fiancée Tiffany, seem to pop up everywhere. Urghh, can’t a girl get a break. Cane is one of her most frequent customers, so when he makes a strange request, begging for her help to do a vision quest, Jordan can’t help but say yes…. Even though it will benefit her ex and his fiancée. But the promise of ‘seeing more’ of Cane is simply too irresistible to refuse. What happens once the ritual starts? Will the simmering embers between Jordan and Cane ignite, or will they fizzle and burn out? No spoilers from me, so you will just have to read the story for yourself to discover how everything plays out in the end… This is a short, sweet, novella length (96pages) romantasy/paranormal romance- with charms, magic, paranormal beings, chemistry, spice, humour, and fun. A cute story, but I wish it had been a little longer, and more ‘fleshed out’ so we got more of the characters background info, magic lore, world-building, and tension. As it was things did seem a little rushed towards the end- but overall it was sweet… The next book ‘Unrewarded Love’ (Book #2) is Perri and Kyla’s story (whom we both meet here)- and from what we get to know of them here, the sparks are set to fly. Happy Reading…

Roux – Review by Angela Hayes
I couldn’t wait to dive into this book. I read the first one and can say it was incredible, so I just had to read the next one. Plus, I absolutely love series books, so this was just icing on the top. I did find these books quite a fast read, which made me a little sad but also happy, because my TBR pile is huge. This was a paranormal romance which I have been finding more enjoyable as each one I grab. this had everything I loved to a demon woman, no pun intended, that tries to make a relationship work. The book continues from the first one, so I highly suggest reading the first. Once again, the characters are hard not to fall for and enjoy reading about their adventure togethers. So, if you like reading paranormal, romance, drama, demons, witches, magic, angles, chemistry, suspense and so much more this is your book. But first read the first one you wont regret it.

Lord how mercy that doll, nope. This is the second book in the Life is Hell series, and yes to get the full understanding of the book and the story I would highly recommend reading book one, No Rest for the Wicked, first. It helps the story be more understandable as everything started in book one. Hell Hath No Fury, begins in the weeks after the conclusion of book one, before the epilogue of book one. Dual perspectives of Millicent and Sheridan. Millicent is a deputy in the little town of Juniper Lake. She once thought that it was a safe place to live until two murders and a disappearance rocked the little town and her to their core. While she is quickly filled in by her boss Sheriff Malakhi on the truth of what happened in book one, including that Delilah and Sheridan are demons she is filled with anger. She questions how long or if they would have told her the truth if she didn’t ask. Paranoia fueled by mysterious, magical gifts that disappear once she has opened them only make her feel more unsafe. Sheridan enjoyed life in the city until her best friend and boss Delilah decided to take a hiatus that led to her selling her bar and moving to Juniper Lake. With no choice Sheridan pops into Delilah’s cabin in need a of new place to live. The moment she first sees Deputy Millicent Casey she has her heart, and she suddenly wants to know what it’s like to care about someone and be cared for. After a week of being tormented by a porcelain doll that keeps coming back Millicent gives up her plan of ignoring it and it will go away and goes to Delilah for help. She can’t live like this anymore. Instantly defensive Sheridan is forced to face her feelings for Millicent and stop trying to be subtle. Given an unwinnable ultimatum everything comes to light with the fates of Millicent and Sheridan in the air until the dust settles. Can Sheridan protect Millicent? Will they get a chance to see if they can work? The world of Juniper Lake continues to get more complex as Sheridan and Millicent’s story builds from Delilah and Malakhi’s. Favors called in once more and secrets weave a bigger web of mystery that builds to the end. I am caught in this world and can’t see what happens next. Teivel and Oren’s story is next in Hell in a Handbasket. I’ll see you there.

I never hesitate to pick up a book by this author because I know I’m in for an amazing ride! The first book in the series was incredible, but this one surpassed it which caught me off guard. It’s a pretty quick read that you can fit into your afternoon, which is literally my only complaint because I want these to last so much longer! The author has an unbelievable way of expertly crafting the story to encompass everything you’d get in a longer book, even down to the development of the characters. I always love seeing the LGBTQ+ in any genre, but paranormal romances are definitely my jam. I can’t wait to see what the next book in this series has in store! I highly recommend picking this up if you enjoy short paranormal/fantasy romance that still feel incredibly detailed.

This is book two in the Life is Hell series by Naomi Valkyrie. It was just as good as the first book! This time we get to learn more about Millicent and Sheridan. Millicent has a magical stalker and turns to her friends to help. This book is another from this author that keeps you turning pages until the end. It’s full of action and wonderful characters. I would recommend reading the books in order but absolutely pick up this wonderful paranormal story and settle in for great afternoon read.

This book takes place shortly after the first book in the series and although it could be read as a stand alone, you get to know the characters and subplots a lot more in the first book.
Millicent knows that her co-worker and boss are hiding information from her. Two murders and a missing person doesn’t just solve itself but it seems like they know more about the cases then they let on. After a bit, she can’t stand being left out and demands answers. Thus she is introduced to the supernatural world.
Being thrust into a world where the woman you are interested in is actually a demon is crazy enough but then a magical stalker on top of that?! Millicent thinks she’s going insane. She goes to Delilah for help.
Sheridan is not the relationship type, especially since she is a hedonism demon, but there’s something about Millicent that makes her want to try. Once they make their interest for each other known, Millicent’s stalker targets Sheridan as well, giving her an ultimatum.
Would Millicent be better off without Sheridan or will the budding romance conquer all? Including a stalker.
I really enjoyed Sheridan’s bubbly and hyper personality in the first book so when I heard this installment is about her love story, I was super excited. I am happy to announce that I was not disappointed.
I have said it many times before, I love Naomi Valkyrie!

Hell Hath No Fury is Book Two in the Life is Hell Series. It is a paranormal F/F romance with drama, mystery, intrigue, demons, witches, shifters, fallen angels, magic, chemistry and a dash of humor. The story picks up with characters that we met in book one, Sheridan and Millicent, in the small town of Juniper Lake. Sheridan is a demon and Millicent is the deputy sheriff of Juniper Lake. Both are attracted to one another, but neither is brave enough to act on their crush so any chance of romance between them is slow burning. When Millicent gets a stalker who leaves her anonymous cryptic notes, and a creepy doll Sheridan is spurred into action and becomes determined to help her and keep her safe. Another brilliantly written story by this talented author who has a way of weaving an interesting and unique story that keeps the reader hooked. Looking forward to reading the next book in this fantastic series.

Just as I said I had to come back and read the second book of this series( Life is hell series). After reading the first one, I couldn’t wait to dive into this world again. I was so excited to see who we got to see next. Turns out we got to see Millie & Sheridan. I made quick work of this, not putting it down at all lmao. But this really has everything you could think of and more. This author really knows how to keep you wanting more and makes you want to run to the next book so you could jump right back into this amazing world she’s built and see all the new and old amazing characters that have been built. Speaking of which lol I love we got to see the characters from the previous book 🥰 excited to go pick up the next books, I can’t read them fast enough.

I really liked this one! It’s a fantasy meets modern day world. Millicent isn’t aware all her friends around her are supernatural beings but when she finds out she’s shocked. Not only that she has a magical stalker. As her friends rally around her and they investigate who her stalker is Millicent tries to keep up with all the new information thrown her way and carry on with her life but it’s difficult especially when she’s falling in love. Can they find the stalker and can Millicent get the girl in the end? I really enjoyed this, loved all the characters and really liked that it kept you guessing about who the stalker was. Highly recommend!
I like this series. I just wish each book was longer. It sucks you don’t need from the first page and never lacks action and entertainment. It actually reads quickly. I really like Millicent. It was great getting to know her more. Hopefully we learn more about Oren and Teival next.

As with all of Naomi Valkyrie’s books , this was a fun little adventure . Quick enough to read in an afternoon , but there’s something about it that makes you want to stretch it out longer . I wish I had felt more chemistry between Millie & Sheridan , but I could still see how they like each other . Fantastic short story full of flirtation , cool characters , & twists & turns . Love this book !

This FF Paranormal read was a fun short read that I enjoyed one evening. This book focuses on side characters that were in book one, So I feel like reading these in order would give the best reading experience! All different types of supernatural characters were included in this book (which I loved) and I enjoyed this way this book flowed. The main characters grabbed my attention and I loved that there was a stalker( awful for Millicent, great for story telling lol). I am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future!!

Hell Hath No Fury Book 2 by Naomi Valkrie. This book is as fantastic as the first in the series. It expounds on two of the other characters from the first book, Millicent and Sheridan. Sheridan is a demon, and Millicent is a sheriff deputy who are drawn together. To say that these two shouldn’t be together is an understatement. There are many factors keeping them apart throughout the book. Everyone comes together to fight their way out of the situations they find themselves in. Great fast read. #NaomiValkrie #hellhathnofury #book2 #demonsanddeputies

Hell Hath No Fury is the second book in the Life Is Hell series. I enjoy the variety of LGBT+ relationships in this series, and the diverse cast of paranormal characters. It’s an action-packed read that’s hard to put down!
Hell Hath No Fury focuses on the relationship between Sheridan and Millicent, who met each other in the first book in the series. It’s early days for them, and Millicent is new to the whole paranormal thing so there are a lot of obstacles for them to overcome. Millicent’s mysterious stalker forces her to come to terms with this new world and accept help from her friends, but also puts a strain on her relationship with Sheridan.
I’m glad that we got to see more of some of the regular characters, like Jezebel! And I loved Millicent in the previous book so I was excited to see her story get more attention.
This book gets five stars from me. I’d recommend the series to readers who are already fans of the author’s work, and those who enjoy varied LGBTQ+ paranormal romances.

‘ Aeris, the adventurous. Aeris, the rule-breaker. Aeris, the rebel. That’s me. Though, I don’t ever actually intend to break the rules. It just sort of… happens. What can I say? I’m curious. There’s a great, big world outside of our own and I want to explore it all. Is that really so bad? I don’t think it is. ’
‘ Smiling down at me again, he offers me his hand. I stare up at him, uncertain as to what to do. Do I go with Callum to where he wants to take me, or do I fly away to the safety of Laric and the wards and never see this man again? I know what I should do, but I’m not certain that I’m going to do it… Grinning with sudden bravado, I slide my hand into his. No adventure is ever told by running away from a story. It’s told while running toward it. Let’s see where this story leads. ’
Touched is the first book in the Elemental Passions series brought to us by 10 talented authors who have come together as one. I must say that I was curious about this book,, because at first I thought it was an anthology- but it isn’t- it is one story told/written by 10 different authors. Well, I have never heard of that being done before- so of course I had to grab a copy and see how the story turned out. The ten authors who contributed to this book are: -Skye Turner -Sloane Nicole -April D. Berry -C.J. Pinard -Danielle Jamie -Darlene Tallman -Julie Moran -Livell James -Machelle Hanleigh -Melissa McKinnon They have produced an intriguing paranormal romance with action, fantasy, adventure, magic, Fairies (Fae), sylphs, werewolves, drama, danger, agendas, fated loved/fated mates, forbidden romance, chemistry, steam, tension, mystery, elemental forces, prophecy, war, insta-love/insta-lust, and emotion. With there being ten different authors lending their talents to this one story, it would be understandable if you were somewhat skeptical about the end result being cohesive. But I am here to assure you that this book reads as if there had only been one author- so colour me impressed. Sneaking through the wards into the human realm isn’t anything new for Aeris, she’s been breaking the rules since she could remember- so what is different this time? Well, a tall dark stranger who knocks her off her feet and locks eyes with her is what…. Aeris and Callum are from two different worlds, a fairy and a human. But is he, human, that is. Afterall he can see through her glamour, which he shouldn’t be able to do. And why can’t she stop thinking about him? Things take a bit of a dangerous turn throwing these two into a situation they could never have predicted. What happens when their forbidden union is discovered? Where does prophecy and war fit in? And what does fate have in store for these two? Well, you really should read all the captivating details for yourself and discover how it all plays out in the end. This is the first book in a five-instalment series- so I can’t wait to see where we go from here. Elemental Passions is the next book in the series (yet to be released). Happy Reading…

Berry, C.J. Pinard, Danielle Jamie, Darlene Tallman, Julie Morgan, Livell James, Machelle Hanleigh, and Melissa MacKinnon – Review by Angela Hayes
I am loving this series! This is the second book in the Life is Hell series, and I cannot wait to read more. This one is just as good as the first, if not better. I love when a series takes a side character from the first book, and gives them their own story. We still see characters from the original, but you get to experience more. There are just as many supernatural elements in this one as the first. If that’s your thing, then you will love this book!
