Her Blackened Soul (The Blackened Series Book 1) by Isra Sravenheart This is my first book by this author but it won’t be my last. Its a very dark, mysterious book. A different take on fairytale stories where the villain is the main character. Lady Isra is a very powerful witch with a black heart but she also has depth to her. Due to past relationships she has major trust issues and maybe even anger issues. Isra hates humans because they have feelings and she especially hates anyone weak. When Kane approaches her for help she offers it but in has conditions. Will she end up killing him? When the humans send her on a trip she meets Lillian, Kane’s fiance and Lillian may change Isra’s opinion of some humans. Astrid is Isra’s closest friend and he is her eyes and ears to protect her. What will Isra do to Astrid? Will she let her live or will Isra have a change of heart? This book was so vividly descriptive that I felt like I was in the forest with them. Read Her Blackened Soul to find out what happens.

Shattered: a Logan McKenna Mystery Book 1 (The Logan McKenna Series) by Valerie Davisson. I loved this book because its my favorite genre but also because the book was just really good. Its the story of Logan McKenna who is trying to get her feet back under her after her husband has passed away and her daughter has gone off on an adventure. She has bought a new house and things seem to be getting back to a new normal until one of her good friends is accused of murder. She had offered to help her friend Thomas Delgado at their Glass Blowing booth at a festival. Things are going great until a body turns up dead and Thomas is accused of murder. Logan makes it her mission to prove that Thomas is not guilty but when Thomas doesn’t want to help himself it makes it hard. Logan digs into the case and finds out all kinds of dirt and may end up getting herself killed before its all over with. This book will grab you by the seat and you won’t want to put it down until you finish. Loved it!
