This was my first time reading from this Author and WOW am I glad I took a chance. I am very impressed with the story telling, for a short novella there is so much packed into it. I didn’t want to put it down. The characters and the world building are fantastic. If you like Dark Paranormal romance with a side of murder, mystery, magic, suspense, danger and more than this is something you don’t want to miss out on. Pixies, witches, a half pixie-half necromancer the characters are unique and yet amazing. Corpse Pixie may be a short novella, but it is fast paced and packs a big punch.

Book 11 in this series, yet while I have read other books by this author, this is my first one in this series. I was a bit confused with some of the characters and how they connected. But overall I found this book to be exciting and full of steamy bits and there was suspense. So I will be going back to book one and reading through the whole series now. I am definitely intrigued to get the whole back story.

This is the second book I have had the pleasure of reading by Ms.Styx, while this is not my normal genre there is something about her writing that has me wanting to read more.
Rene and Belladonna meet in a very odd way, at a crime scene. Their story isn’t the normal love story but that was okay with me.
Rene’s only goal is to find out who murdered his twin sister. He gets help with his search from Belladonna and discovers there are some unexpected forces at work.
This was a quick and enjoyable read, perfect for a Sunday afternoon while watching football. While short the characters were well developed. I will be looking for more books by Ms. Styx in the future.

This is the second book I have read by Sinister Styx, but it will certainly not be the last. Corpse Pixie combines amazing world-building with fantastical, yet realistic characters. There is so much information packed into a short 89 pages. Belladonna, Rene, and Seraphine create a unique team of otherworldly beings set on bringing down groups of corrupted Hunters that have murdered innocent humans. The world building is detailed and immersive; I found myself living the dreams and nightmares along with Rene, feeling the need for revenge with Belladonna, and experiencing the beginning of feelings Belladonna and Rene begin to feel for one another. I wish there was more to this story so I could see what the future holds for our 3 friends.

This was a great read. This story was short and quick but I was kept glued to the pages . I didn’t know what to expect going into this book but I am so glad I took a chance because I loved the plot and the multitude of characters. Rene is looking for his sister’s killer and he is dealing with her death by drinking himself stupid. Belladonna starts messing with him so he thinks he’s losing his mind but she has long term plans for him. I wasn’t sure if I liked her in the beginning but enjoyed her more as the story went. There is mystery, drama, love, murder, and more in this book. There are some other characters in this book that grabbed my attention while reading. I hope the author writes more books with these characters because I didn’t want it to end. I recommend this book.
Corpse Pixie is a bit of a different read than I’ve read by this author in the past. For that reason, I wasn’t entirely sure what to expect. I was initially drawn to the book cover and the fact that I’ve read this author in the past. The theme of this book is different than many I’ve read in the past in general so I wasn’t sure what to expect. I like that this book alternates between main characters for multiple perspectives and the descriptive, vividly story telling easily keeps your attention throughout. This book has a little bit of everything without feeling like too much was crammed into a short story.
I didn’t really know what to expect with this book but I really enjoyed this story. It’s a short story that I read in under two hours. Being so short I wasn’t expecting there to be so much going on with the story and characters. It has everything that you would expect from a longer book, put into a much shorter one and this makes it really fast paced and not lagging at all. It has everything you love and expect from a dark paranormal romance book with magic, supernatural beings, murder, mystery, revenge, suspense and so much more. I would love to know more about the characters backstory and what the future holds for them. It left off in a way that might suggest that Sinister Styx may have more stories to write with these characters and I hope they do.
Corpse Pixie by Sinister Styx was a very interesting book. An 18+ fantasy laced murder mystery that’s filled with all sorts of twists, plenty of drama, and overall just very compelling. I have read other work by Sinister Styx and was very excited to see something longer, and I was not disappointed! I just ate up Belladonna and Rene’s love hate relationship! I definitely enjoy this author and look forward to seeing more from them again!

This novel is a short read and will not take you long at all to read. It follows Belladonna, who is a pixie and also half necromancer. Belladonna keeps seeing dead girls in her forest and can only be angry at the humans who could care less about the dead, until she meets René. After watching René for a little bit, Belladonna comes to find out that René is the brother of one of the girls she found. She comes to the conclusion that René could be of some use to her and finding why the bodies are being tossed away with no cares. René of course wants nothing more than to find his sister’s killer. As these two search for the killer they find more then they might have bargained for.
Goodreads – Fate, Frankincense & Funerals by Naomi Valkyrie
BOOKBUB – Fate, Frankincense & Funerals by Naomi Valkyrie
Acheron – Vulture shifter – Shunned from society because he touches the dead…
Kharon, the only place I’m safe, is in my rearview mirror as I take the treacherous journey to Mandara.
I know it’s dangerous, but I have to go. Something is pulling me to the city. When I get there, I’m surprised to discover it’s a person – Errapel, nurse to the dying soul I’ve been sent to assist. He’s a breath of fresh air to my stagnant life, but the law says vulture shifters are forbidden from taking a mate.
Is there anything that can keep us together? Maybe, but I have no idea what it could be. Society is a difficult thing to fight. Can a vulture shifter outcast, and a sweet hare shifter nurse, beat the odds, or will the archaic laws tear them apart?
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.
“Corpse Pixie” brings the reader into a world full of secrets, deceit, and supernatural beings. Our male, main character, Rene is torn apart by his sisters murder. He self medicated to his own detriment, obsessively and desperately seeking answers about his sister’s death. Our female, main character has her own obsession and motives, and the two of them become enmeshed in each other’s worlds.
If you enjoy a short and easy read, full of magic and the supernatural, this would be a great book for you. The author jumps into the story pretty quickly, adding new information with each chapter.

Quick but good read. It has some mature parts that wouldn’t be appropriate for younger readers. It progressed fast and jumped time a few times bit is detailed for such a short story. I do have questions but hopefully they will be answered in the next books.

Another Fantastic short story by this talented author. Also the cover was beautiful. I love the colors and the little details in it. It’s so crazy how the author can fit some much action packed, spice filled suspense into such a short read. It truly does not disappoint. The author’s writing is unique and brings a fresh perspective to the fantasy genre, blending whimsical elements with darker themes. creating a perfect balance between light-hearted moments and more serious undertones.The world-building is imaginative, and the character development is intriguing, making it a compelling read for those who enjoy fantasy with crazy twists. I look forward to reading more from this author.
I honestly did not know if I was going to like this book at first, but then it grabbed me and didn’t let go. I’m desperately hoping the author writes more books with these characters!
I love that Belladonna is a hybrid pixie/necromancer. It’s something I’ve never read about before, and the premise is an interesting one! She is written like a true pixie-sneaky, cruel, beautiful, dangerous, and remorseless. I adore her!
Rene is desperately seeking the person who murdered his twin sister and trying to cope with the loss in the only way he knows how-the bottom of a bottle. He starts seeing purple eyes and having euphoric experiences in a half-dreamlike state and believes he is losing his mind. It’s Belladonna doing her pixie shenanigans. At first, you really dislike her for using and abusing him the way she does (at least I did), but somehow you end up liking them as a team/couple by the end of the book. The twist at the end (the murderer) fit perfectly. There is enough foreshadowing that I guessed it, but I didn’t guess it so early that I was upset. The timing was perfect.
This is a quick, easy read and it is more plot than spice. Definitely check the triggers-it’s marketed as a dark paranormal book for a reason, and mental health is important.
I want to know more. I want to read about the team saving more paranormal creatures. I want to know if two of the characters actually went on the date she promised and how it went. I want to know how Rene handles being tied to Belladonna in the long run. I want to know about Belladonna’s past. There are so many ways the author could run with this book and these characters and I’m here begging for it!
This book was great. The characters, the overall plot, all great. The only downside of this book was that I felt like it could have had more detail and brought more side stories to life. I am the type of person who enjoys a good quest, but the side quests really make or break the story.
I think the author has some great characters and a storyline that is entertaining for fantasy readers. This was a quick and easy read. It was very difficult to put down once I started reading it. I would definitely recommend to all fantasy/mystery lovers.

This is the 11th book in the Masters of the Consulate series. This is another dark paranormal romance which has elements of danger, twist and turns, betrayal, in this one with have a Dom/submissive relationship. Each one of these books is the story about a different Master finding his fated mate however I would recommend reading them in order as there is a story that runs underneath which is a battle between the pure bloods and the rogues both fighting for ultimate control over the underworld. In this story we are with Master Bistrita and Chara. The rogues have moved into Master Bistrita’s territory so all the Masters have to work with him to try and defeat the rouges once and for all. What he didn’t expect was meeting his fated mate in the form of Chara. However it wasn’t love at first site. When Chara barges into their meeting to warn her friend about a danger her reaction to Bistrita wasn’t very warm. However she soon starts to realise that there is something between them that neither can deny. But when Bistrita start putting his rules and orders in place will she willing obey or will her feisty attitude and disobedience lead them back into more danger.

I was hooked on the War of Destiny series and read every single one just eager to learn more on each of the different characters. As the years and years span forward and different characters are intermingled, the story continues to make such an impression on its readers. As this book emerges of Matthew and his backstory after book one and two, I definitely needed to give this one book a try. If you’re interested in this book, it is highly recommended that you read the first two books in the series for context and sequence of events. Starts out with Matthew dealing with so much anguish and grieving from the last of his soulmate and being tortured. Now without his ka-tet, he leaves lost and out of place being on his own now. He focuses on regaining his strength and power as he has been depleted from what he once was. In search of a new identity, Matthew goes from the Medici family from Tuscany to Valentino in Rome. Throughout the reader can truly experience all the emotions Matthew confronts through the adventure and action that he brings to his own storyline. Another War of Destiny addition!

Pursuit into darkness was told from Julia’s POV. It follows her descent into madness from the abuse she endure as a human. After nearly a century of being a vampire and losing her soul mate, she also loses her sense of self worth.
Instead of trusting the members of her ka-tet, she gives into the voices and hallucinations of her violent ex-husband telling her she’s worthless, and joins Valentino in trying to bring down the Resistance.
Samuel and Kali are able to get through to her enough to spare Samuel and he kidnaps her back, which infuriates Matthew and he leaves the ka-tat because he does not trust Julia.

Where do I even begin!?!? The nail biting suspense? The character development? The plot? This was so good!
Matthew’s struggle of losing not only his soul mate, but also his ka-tat from harboring Julia after her betrayal and even his elemental super powers was heart wrenching! Living alone in the mountains only made his mental health worse. His soul mate finally convinced him in a dream to rejoin society where he meets the Medici brothers and becomes a valuable asset to both the Duke and the Cardinal.
Matthew has to continue to balance pretending to be human, while also not damaging his vampire anatomy. Valentino causes chaos in Rome and Matthew has to take the long way to avoid being spotted by Valentino’s clan to come help the Cardinal. Matthew fights alongside the humans to relinquish the clan that has infiltrated the Villa and has the humans enthralled and hypnotized to try to take over and rule Rome.

A half Pixie half Necromancer 😱 Belladonna really gets under your skin but at the same time is so easy to like🤯. The Hunters are hunting the paranormal while the paranormal are hunting the Hunters!
René get put through the ringer- loses his twin sister to find out their brother is behind her murder for Demonic Powers, and in the midst becomes the Pixies play thing and under his control.
René also has dormant powers that become awoken thanks to Belladonna!
Corpse Pixie by Sinister Styx. For this book to be only 82 pages it was a fast paced, thrilling ride. Each page was packed with dark romance, mystery, drama, the supernatural and magic. Its the story of Rene who can’t move past the death of his sister. He turns to drugs and alcohol to cover the pain and continues to visit each and every murder scene to investigate. He is determined to find the murderer. One evening at a murder scene he feels the presence of another being and that presence follows him home. Belladonna senses in Rene a person of deep feeling and thinks he can help her avenge his people. Rene is not so sure of this. Belladonna is also determined to make Rene her own and she will stop at nothing to do that. Filled with unknown things and mystery everywhere this book will keep you flipping the pages until you are finished! Can’t wait to read the next book by this author!
An Ember of Hope is Book Six in the War of Destiny Series. This book builds on previous books in the series, so I highly recommend reading previous books prior to reading this one. It is a paranormal fantasy full of action, danger, mystery, betrayal, tension, drama, conflict, high stakes, violence, suspense, vampires, and paranormal elements. The main character, Matthew is still reeling from the loss of the death of his soulmate, so he retreats to the mountains to live by himself. He continues to try to hide his powers and that he is a vampire, but it becomes increasingly more difficult to do so because Valentino is attempting to take control of more cities. Matthew becomes a protector and needs to use his powers to protect those he cares about. This was a wonderfully written story with complex, multi layered characters who continue to grow through their struggles and trauma. Along their journey to self-discovery, they learn about trust and friendship. As a warning, there are triggers in this book as it contains flashbacks of imprisonment and torture.

This is the sixth book in the War of Destiny series. I suggest reading these books in order so that you get a complete understand of the story, the characters and how they all fit together also the plot carries on from one book to the next so if you don’t read them it may leave you feeling a bit lost. There is also trigger warnings as in this story we have flashbacks to the time when our main character Matthew was imprisoned and the torture he suffered so just a heads up with regard to that.
This is a continuous and a fascinating fast paced paranormal story that I have loved since book 1. After the death of his soul mate and his imprisonment, Matthew distance himself from those he feels betrayed him. While he is struggle to get his fire element working correctly he meets and starts to work for the Medici brothers. He fits in as mortal and likes how it feels, however he isn’t mortal he is a vampire.
Matthew now decides he is going to become a protector and when Valentino tries to take over more territory he steps right into his role at protector. As time progresses Matthew realises that he is not alone and that their are people who want to help him vampire and human alike..but will he be able to let his guard down again and trust people after the betrayal he suffered last time?
This was another great adventure which I really enjoyed. I can’t wait to see what the author has instore for us next.

This is the fourth novel in the masters of the consulate series and I cannot stress enough how important it is to read from book one to understand past characters that mentioned and the underlying storyline.
Within this novel we get the love story of Romano and Raven – forbidden love when witches and vampires come together in the ultimate sizzling scenes…. Something that Ms Black is excellent at and this novel does not disappoint.

This is the 3rd book in this series and I found it very hard to put it down to be able to “adult” in life. I just wanted to keep reading. Ms black another fabulous episode in the masters of the consulate series and more of the intertwined back story and characters as well as the development and hot love story of Master Trentino and Angel…. I can’t wait to move onto book 4 for more!

Another exciting chapter in the masters of the consulate series. This novel gives more of the back story in the war between the vampires, the shifters, the witches and the syndicate. But ultimately it is about the love story between Christian and Delilah ❤️ the trials they endure and how she proves her loyalty…. Along the way a few very hot sex scenes but if you are a true Sylvia Black fan you would expect nothing less than super hot.

Having read other books in this series I was excited for the opportunity to read book one and it did not disappoint- this is the story of Luce and the ultimate master of the consulate – Salvatore. Ultimately it contains some super hot sex scenes – Ms Black you did not disappoint although like fine wine these get better as the books process.
There isn’t a lot that I can write without spoilers so I just advise you pick up a copy and get comfortable.

This book is yet another exciting chapter in the amazing series Masters of the consulate. I cannot stress enough that you need to start this story at book one to get the basics of the war with the rogues and understand the importance of the characters. This book is also about the love story between Bistrita and Chara – fated mates ❤️ and has bdsm undertones.
It’s very hard to write a review without spoilers so I suggest you get a hold of the series and get comfortable and lose yourself in the books themselves. I cannot wait for book 12 and the exciting conclusion.

This book is set within the War of Destiny series, between books 2 & 3. It tells the story from Matthew de la Roche’s point of view as he struggles to come to terms with his sense of loss and betrayal from those he considered family, whilst recovering from imprisonment and torture. A chance encounter with members of the Medici family gives him some purpose in life and he starts to mend, always being conscious of the need to hide his vampiric nature whilst amongst the mortals. A plea from Cardinal Medici takes him to Rome, a dangerous place for a lone vampire on the wrong side of King Valentino, but Matthew finds that he may have more allies than he knows.
