Shift Happens (New Orleans Nocturnes, #2)Shift Happens by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I have read a couple of books from this author and she still continues to blow my mind on her storytelling. This is the second book of the New Orleans Nocturnal series. You don’t need to read the books in order but there are previous characters in this story as well. I love a good paranormal book but this author exceeded all my expectations on this book. I was so excited when I got this book I stopped everything and started to read it immediately. I couldn’t put it down until the end. It only took me a few hours to devour this addictive story.

Sophie is supposed to be a witch like her whole family. She has been told she even smells like a witch. Sophie wants to be a witch so bad but she can’t cast a spell for nothing. She finds herself in trouble with a werewolf pack. Sophie meets Hot Trace, who is a werewolf. He bites her to protect his status. His pack is cursed by a witch and Sophie has to figure out how to prove she is innocent or she too will become a wolf. Will Sophie find a way to prove that she’s innocent or will it be too late?

HUNTED (HUNTED series Book 1)
By Sarah Biglow & Molly Zenk
5 out of 5 stars

I loved reading the book HUNTED (HUNTED series Book 1) by Sarah Biglow & Molly Zenk. It is a story that had me hooked from the very beginning. I love the characters of Edith, Dan Paxton, and Darren Paxton. I grew to care about what happens to them with each chapter that I read. The storyline is exciting and will have you wondering what is going to happen next. The author does an amazing job of making both the story and the characters come alive. There are also additional characters that are introduced. They include those that are helpful to Edith and the others as well as those who have a more personal and selfish agenda. The author does a wonderful job of making you believe in vampires as well as setting up the story behind the characters that you read about. Don’t miss out on an amazing story that is entertaining and addictive to read. You won’t want to put this book down until the final page. I highly recommend reading it.

This is not my first book by these two authors but it is one of my favorites. I enjoyed this vampire/human paranormal story. This is a well developed story that I had a hard time putting down. I was pulled in right from the beginning and kept engaged to the end. What will happen when a hundredth anniversary party turns into a missing person? Darren thought he was just chaperoning his brother, Dan, until Dan comes up missing. Darren is determined to find his brother, get in and get out, a clean escape. Will Edith hold the key to finding Dan? What will happen between her and Darren? I enjoyed their characters and watching them grow throughout the story. They really made the story for me and easy to read. I highly recommend this book and these authors.

Vampire State by Alexander Charalambides
Four Stars

Vampire State is a paranormal/vampire book by Alexander Charalambides. This Is the first book I have read by Mr. Charalambides, but definitely won’t be the last. This story was full of twists and turns and had me hooked from the very first page. I read long into the night just to see what path Rowena would take. Rowena is a strong character that has to make some hard decisions. I enjoyed the political aspects that are approved in this book. This was a greasy read and I look forward to read the next book in the series.

City Without a Sun by Alexander Charalambides is the second book in the Vampire State Series. I recommend reading the books in order because the story is building throughout the series. This is an action and mystery packed adventure. The characters are great and the development through the series has been wonderful. I am really enjoying reading about Rowena and the path she is taking. This book kept me up late because I just had to see how it would end. I really enjoy how the author is taking the vampire story and making it his own. I look forward to reading more in this series and from this author in the future.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

 

City Without A Sun is the second book in the Vampire State series by Alexander Charalambides. This series really does take vampire lore and shake it up a bit- giving an original and intriguing take on vampire stories. But it is so much more than just a vampire story, with plenty of drama, danger, action, adventure, mysteriousness, surprising developments, politics, agendas, social commentary, wonderful paranormal elements, and superb world-building. There is definitely a bit of a dark dystopian feel to the series, which I love. and more. It felt a little dystopian and dark at times. But that added to the whole atmosphere.
This was an interesting story- complex and dynamic. Though it was a little slow going at times- the story was intriguing enough to keep me invested in the outcome. Even though this book is set around a year after the events in books one, Vampire State, I would really recommend reading book one before starting on this one as having all that storyline and information will definitely give you a better appreciation of this book.
A lot has happened between the events in book one and now. Our characters have to navigate many changes- personal, social, as well as political. I really enjoyed following along to find out how everything played out. Definitely looking forward to more of this series.

Thank you, Alexander Charalambides!

City Without a Sun is the second book in the Vampire State series. I recommend reading the first one before you pick this one up.
The suspense and mystery of this book will have you engrossed in the story and make you feel like you are right there beside the characters. Rowena is an amazing character. You will likely find yourself riding an emotional roller coaster as you follow her journey in this story. There is a lot of action packed in these pages and you won’t be able to stop turning them until you get to the end…and then you will want to dive right into the next one.
Excellent reading adventure!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is the second book in the Vampire State Series. Its a story that completely drags you and and keeps you gripped to the end. There is a paranormal element and also a romance story. There is also a story about prejudice between groups of people and how some people will fight to make everyone equal.

Rowena  has accepted a job at a news station as her boyfriend advised. The plan is to keep getting across the message of equality for vampires and humans. But the vampires around her aren’t so happy with this change and they make their feelings known.

After her interview with a prince leads to her becoming famous and her views becoming more well known this is just the position she needs to be. But will this mean that humans will stay safe and free or will her co worker Titus turn everyone against her and against her views.

Add to the mix the connection she has with the Prince this causes a rift between Rowena and Vincent. Can they work through it and stay strong together or will their relationship fall apart to?

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

City Without A Sun (Vampire State Book 2) by Alexander Charalambides is a contemporary paranormal romance vampire story. The battle between vampires and humans is still raging and the politics has changed. The story is a fast paced with lots going on. Life is getting more complicated and dangerous for our heroine. As with the first book Charalambides is good with world building, and character development who are complex but relatable. I am enjoying this series and can’t wait for the next book.

4 Stars!!!!

I am the queen of reading books out of order. This is the second book in the series and I have to admit that I was missing a bit of context but that did not really interfere with my enjoyment of this book. The author has quite a refreshing idea and I like their take on vampires and humans. I found that there was just enough drama that I was glued to this book.

I really could get into Rowena’s character. I like how she is the underdog really and has an uphill battle to try and make things better for humans in a vampire led society. I like that she has a very reliable friend base. I like how the author brings the characters to life like they jump off of the pages. I look forward to reading more from this author and series.

This is a no spoiler review!

This is a full length contemporary romance at its fullest. Well let’s not forget the battle between vampires and humans. The disrespect of women as well as slavery. But… Rowena is not about to let this go. This is her strength shining through. Read on as she works her way through this challenging report. Also find out what happens with Vincenzo and Rowena! What a romance they plunge into. Or do they? This is a must read, also make sure to read book 1 in this exciting series.

While Alexander Charalambides is new to me, his story has found me a new author. I loved meeting his characters, especially Rowena and Vincenzo. This is a fast paced read! I could not turn the pages fast enough. Alexander also made his characters strong and not dependent on others. Oh and let’s not forget those hot vampires. You can be certain I will continue with this series. Bring on Book 3! Well done Alexander Charalambides, Well Done!

Rating 5 out of 5

This is the second book of the series, New Orleans Nocturnes. And just like the first book License to Bite, it’s absolutely hilarious. All Sophie wanted was a hot werewolf lover. But after Trace bites her at a party. Sophie needs to find out who cursed Trace’s pack before the next full moon or she gets wolfy. I also cannot believe this cliffhanger. Once again I cannot wait to read the next book to find out what happens to Jane and Sophie’s friend.

Five Stars

Five stars because I laughed so hard while reading this story. The author really knew what she was doing when she put this together. The main female lead is so ornery and feisty it’s no wonder they want to stake her. I find the fact that they have to get a license to bite hilarious. I just couldn’t get enough. The male lead did upset me a little. Like you turn me because you think I’m you lost love. Nah that’ not how this works. Love me for me not just cause I remind you of someone. The author did a great job giving us something classic with a spin. I am looking forward to see what all the author has to offer. You don’t find many authors who make you go though ups and downs.

License to Bite: A Paranormal Romantic Comedy (New Orleans Nocturnes Book 1) by Carrie Pulkinen, is a delightful little romance. And what could be better than vampires. But what I like about the vampires in this story is it’s not all drama drama drama. It’s light-hearted and fun especially Jane. She’s very headstrong and confident even in the face of a world she didn’t know existed. Great characters, a great world, and just a delightful story. Reader beware there is an incident of very adult situation. But it’s not so heavy that it distracts from this great little story. This book was a lot of fun.

This is not my first book by this author but it is one of my favorites. This is the second book in this series which I highly suggest reading the first book before this one. It will help enhance your enjoyment of this series and get to know what is happening with the characters. This is a well developed young adult paranormal story that I had a hard time putting down. The characters are strong and connectable. They made the story easy to read and kept it engaging. I enjoyed how they brought the story to life and pulled me right into the story. Rowena and Vincenzo take on a new threat that could tear down all the progress they made. There is alot of action and so much more happening in this story. I highly recommend reading this to find out what more happens to them. They made such great characters that I really enjoyed reading this book. Don’t miss this series!

By Alexander Charalambides
5 out of 5 stars

I loved reading the book City Without A Sun (Vampire State Book 2) by Alexander Charalambides. It is a story that has a wonderful storyline and amazing characters. I love the character of Rowena. She is a human who is intelligent, independent, and strong. This book has her starting a new job, trying to get a human perspective out in the open, and taking on new responsibilities. How will a conflict between her and another co-worker work out? What will happen when a mysterious prince takes an interest in her? This is a story that had me turning pages to find out what was going to happen next. There is suspense and mystery. The book has moments when I was angry with the way Rowena is treated as well as how there are those with agendas that threaten all the hard work that she does. I also enjoyed reading about many of the other characters that are included in the story. I loved this second book just as much as the first. It is exciting and entertaining to read. The author does a wonderful job of making me feel like I am right there with the characters. I highly recommend reading it.

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Sometimes you just need something light and fun. You know, when you’ve had that hard day at work, the kids are annoying you, and dinner’s burned. You just want to get away from it all. Well, this is definitely a ‘Calgon’ kinda book! (Does anyone else get that reference?)

License to Bite: A Paranormal Romantic Comedy (New Orleans Nocturnes Book 1) by Carrie Pulkinen was a cute campy read. As a first-time reader of Ms. Pulkinen, I enjoyed the premise of the story and found myself chuckling along. Ethan Devereaux, a “young” vamp meets Jane Anderson and is instantly intrigued. She pulls at him in some unforeseen way and he can’t figure out why. When circumstances force Ethan to “turn” Jane, he thinks it’s fate at hand. Until Jane “wakes up” and he’s wondering what he ever did to deserve what fate has plopped into his lap.
Jane Anderson is just coasting along in life. The daughter of the governor of Texas, she is itching to stretch her wings and her trip to ‘The Big Easy’ with her best friend is her chance. Until she meets Ethan (kinda). Interested in discovering more about the mysterious man, she is unprepared when she finds herself in his home and undead.

Now Ethan must teach her everything she needs to know about being a vampire and Jane has to get over her aversion to blood to get her vampire license. But not everyone wants to see Ethan and Jane succeed. Can Ethan help Jane get over her quirks in time or will they both end up staked,

Using witty humor combined with interesting characters, Ms. Pulkinen weaves a good tale that keeps the reader engaged. The chemistry between the two main characters is not heavy but consistent. The sub-characters are fun and interesting, leading the reader to want to know them better. If you are looking for a cute lighthearted book, this is one you should definitely pick up.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

License to Bite: A Paranormal Romantic Comedy is the first book in the New Orleans Nocturnes series by Carrie Pulkinen. It is the first book I have read, but I will continue the series because it was hilarious. The book is about Jane Anderson, daughter of Texas governor, going to New Orleans for Mardi Gras with her best friend. She is trying to be independent and prove to her dad and brothers she can make it as a blogger, but gets herself into quite a pickle. She finds herself being turned into a vampire on her second night there, which is bad enough… but she can’t stand the sight, or idea, of blood. Jane is sassy and sarcastic, and her “sire” Ethan is torn between being annoyed with her, and the magnetic draw he has to her. He first thought she was his past fiancé, but he was so very wrong. The banter between Ethan and Jane, and Ethan and his sire Gaston, is perfect. (Jane even ties in Beauty and the Beast song when she learns his name, had me dying laughing) I like that this isn’t the normal dark vampire story, but instead is a funny ironic take on it. I can’t wait to read the other stories in the series.

But when a smokin’ hot werewolf bites her and then accuses her of crimes against his pack, she has until the next full moon to prove him wrong and stop his magic from transforming her into a wolf.
A romp in the sack would be a nice bonus, too.
Trace Thibodeaux didn’t mean to bite Sophie. The red wolves have been cursed, she’s the prime suspect, and if he wants to keep his rank in the pack, he has to end her magic by any means necessary.
But that doesn’t include sheathing his sword in a witch’s scabbard.
He’s gotten into bed with the enemy before, and that’s a mistake he’ll never make again.
Or will he?
If you like funny heroines and smoldering shifters, you’ll love this steamy paranormal romantic comedy.

License to bite is the first book in the New Orleans Nocturnes series By Carrie Pulkinen. This is the first book that i have read by Carrie Pulkinen and it holds true to the title it is full of romance and comedy. I loved the characters in this book Gaston and Ethan, Jane and her best friend Sophie. I thought it was a fun and super cute read. Jane’s Character is use to getting what she wants and i feel is a little spoiled so when she comes across Ethan and he don’t give her the time or day at first it was fun to read it unravel. I would really like to read more about Gaston and Jane. I look forward to reading book 2 in this series. Thank you Carrie Pulkinen for this amazing book and making me laugh.

License to Bite (New Orleans Nocturnes, #1)License to Bite by Carrie Pulkinen
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the first book I have read from this author and she has a new fan. I love a good paranormal story but this author exceeded all my expectations. This is the first book of the New Orleans nocturnal series. Once I started this book I could not put it down. It only took me a few hours to devour this addictive story.

Jane Anderson has always gotten her way. She is the daughter of the governor of their town. Jane is so excited to have a girls trip. She is going to New Orleans for the best party ever, Madi Gras. Jane is having the time of her life and better yet she meets a very hot guy but what she doesn’t know is he is a vampire. She ends up becoming immortal herself and she is so excited except she can’t stand blood. Jane is now stuck with Ethan and let’s just say they are not in love with each other. She has only three weeks to learn the ways of being a vampire to get her license. Will Ethan teach her the ways or will he end it all?

When an Empire Won’t Hear The Truth, Rowena Must Learn to Lie
Still reeling from the loss of their human slaves, the vampires of the sunless city of Sanguinia are angry and divided. Rowena and Vincenzo, her wealthy vampire boyfriend, are set to tackle a new threat, a reactionary political front that threatens to repeal all the progress they have made so far in bringing equality to the country.
When Vincenzo encourages her to take on new responsibilities, Rowena accepts a job at Gargoyle, one of of Sanguinia’s top news networks. In theory, they value her perspective as a human, but in reality she struggles against an uncaring editor and the barely restrained hostility of her co-workers. Just before she goes on air for the first time, she’s assaulted by co-anchor and rising media personality, Titus Severus.
Ignored by crew and her superiors, Rowena looks for a new way to make a difference and, betting on a long shot, she aims to interview the mysterious prince of Kemet. The prince is young, charming, intelligent, and just as invested in improving life for the humans in Sanguinia as Rowena is herself.
Hitting it off with the prince just as a gulf forms between Rowena and Vincenzo, her exclusive interview with foreign royalty is set to propel her to overnight stardom, but can Rowena hold onto the connections she needs to keep Sanguinia’s humans safe and free, or will Titus sweep away her efforts and usher in a new age of hatred and violence?
City Without A Sun is the second book in the Vampire State series of paranormal vampire romances

Drinking blood sucks.
Governor’s daughter Jane Anderson is used to getting what she wants. When a girls’ trip to Mardi Gras thrusts her into the arms—and fangs—of New Orleans’ hottest vampire, he gifts her with immortality, super strength, and a complexion to die for.
There’s only one tiny problem. Jane faints at the sight of blood.
When Ethan Devereaux meets Jane, his cold, lifeless heart learns to beat again. Convinced she’s his late fiancée reincarnated, he turns her, claiming her as his own. But when Jane wakes up dead in Ethan’s attic, she’s loud, obnoxious, and downright ornery. He doesn’t know if he should kiss her or stake her, but one thing’s for certain…
She is so not his long-lost love.
But Ethan turned her, so he’s stuck with her. Jane has three weeks to learn the ways of the vampire and get her license, or she’ll be staked. If Ethan can’t help her overcome her aversion to blood, his undead life might also be on the line.
Join the supes of New Orleans Nocturnes as they lighten up the darker side of the Big Easy in this fast, steamy romantic comedy.

Carrie Pulkinen is a paranormal romance author who has always been fascinated with things that go bump in the night. Of course, when you grow up next door to a cemetery, the dead (and the undead) are hard to ignore. Pair that with her passion for writing and her love of a good happily-ever-after, and becoming a paranormal romance author seems like the only logical career choice. 

Before she decided to turn her love of the written word into a career, Carrie spent the first part of her professional life as a high school journalism and yearbook teacher. She loves good chocolate and bad puns, and in her free time, she likes to read, drink wine, and travel with her family.
