Phoenix Awakens ( Phoenix book 1) Review






The Blurb: 

Julia Long is starting her senior year with an extra dose of crazy. The dreams of cultish, bloody rituals are weird enough, but the victim in her lifelike dreams is her new classmate, Southern charmer Graham.

Graham admits he was a Phoenix — part of a centuries old secret society — but swears he left it all behind. As Julia works with Graham to figure out why she is dreaming about his past, she's discovering she has other abilities. She heals Graham’s migraines with a touch, and there’s her superhuman strength that comes and goes. Julia doesn’t know where her new talents come from, but there’s no denying that when Graham is near, her powers kick into overdrive.

But the Phoenix Society wants Graham back. They need his blood to awaken the magic they seek, and they’ll do whatever it takes to get it.

Can Julia uncover the truth behind her connection to Graham? How far will Julia go in order to save Graham and stop the Phoenixes from harnessing this powerful magic?

My Review: 

 
I received a free ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review through Netgalley.

This book gives you one heck of a thrill with mystery, magic and so much more. So if you are looking for a book with quite a few twists and turns that take you on an exciting journey than you need to give this book a shot.

Julia is such an amazing character. You can easily fall in love with her, because of her big heart. Not only does she have a big heart, but she also has a way of growing on you. The world was so well built in this story along with the characters making it incredibly easy to fall into this world for hours. Instead of reading it is like you are there.

This book had it all. It had me saying What?... OMG... Wow.. then okay I need to go to bed, just one more page. Then nope that isn't gonna happen I have to read it all right now. Then the end comes and; No, but I need more right now. That is the moment when you discover how great the book was, and that it had a big enough impact on you that you actually need the next book in front of you right then.

I loved that I was able to just let everything go and escape to somewhere else. I read so that I can get away from life stresses, or boredom, yet at the same time I get to live so many other lives making me think about how beautiful life really is. I think if I didn't have books I would be totally bored out of my mind everyday. I just want to read the second book now. I can not wait until the next book comes out!

Mirror Mage Dragon's Gift: The Huntress Book 2 Review


The Blurb

 Cass Clereaux likes her job. It’s simple—steal the magic, don’t get killed. FireSouls like her are perfect for magic treasure hunting. Their dragon soul helps them find treasure, their wicked powers help them steal it. But there’s a big freaking downside—FireSouls are hunted. If either of the magical governments figures out what she is, she can kiss her life goodbye.

When the Alpha Council comes to her with a special job, it’s a no-brainer to turn it down, no matter how much money they’re offering. Shifters who can sniff out her weird magic are the last supernaturals she needs to be around. Worse? They have a history of hunting FireSouls. But when Cass learns that a little girl’s life is at stake and Cass is her last hope, she doesn’t have a choice.

With her sisters and Aidan Merrick at her back, she’s got a chance at saving the girl and keeping her deadly secret—until she learns there’s far more to this kidnapping than meets the eye. It’s far too similar to what happened to her as a child, and everything new that she learns scares her even more.

My Review:


I received an ARC copy of this book free of charge in exchange for an honest review from the author.
Thank you very much for the opportunity to read, and review such an amazing book Linsey.

This book was literally an up all night book. Those books that give you a good kind of insomnia are the ones that you can't help but fall in love with.

Packed with action this book kept me hooked and flipping pages all through the night until now 6:39 am. I had to finish this book! If I put the book down once I would have a panic attack, and sit there saying forget it, sleep can wait. So worth it to loose sleep even though I know I have no time left to sleep before I have company.

I was really glad to a gotten a copy of the next book. I was sitting there thinking about when I would get the next book. I even had a plan to buy a copy as soon as possible, because I really loved the first book. Once I got a taste of the series I was hooked. These books are 100% amazing, and a favorite of mine.

With a mix of magic, shapeshifters, romance, and tons more you couldn't ask for more in a book. This book gave it all. This book did not disappoint!

Ancient Magic Dragon's Gift: The Huntress Book #1 Review

                                                                About the book: 
 I’m good at two things: finding treasure and killing demons. Lying low is a close third—but not because I want to be good at hiding. I have to be. I’m a FireSoul, one of the unlucky few to inherit a piece of the dragon’s soul. Being born with the dragon’s covetousness should be a sweet gig - I have the power to find and steal any type of treasure, including the powers of other supernaturals.

But it doesn’t come without a price - stealing powers requires that I kill, and others would destroy me if they discover what I am. In a world full of magic, hiding my species is the only way to survive. Finding magical artifacts is the only way to pay the bills. It’s a dangerous job when you can barely use your magic, but that’s one of the things I like about it.

When Aidan Merrick, the most powerful shifter in the city, hired me to find an ancient scroll, I didn’t want to take the job. His immense amount of power reminds me of too much of murky memories from a past I can’t remember. But I don’t have a choice. The scroll reveals what I am. And if anyone finds out, I’m dead.

My Review:  ✯✯✯✯✯

 I received a free ARC copy of this book in exchange for an honest review through Netgalley.

Looking for an action packed night with tons of adventure and magic not to mention an awesome shapeshifter? Get comfortable and pick up this book. You will not want to put it down. I know I couldn't.

This book had so many amazing things rolled into one. It has twists and turns that just grip you until the final page making you want only more. This book was very easy to sink into, and not leave. Sadly I do not have the second book. I tell you if I had all three books I would probably not sleep until I read all 3. This book was that good!

This book had great characters, all with features that easily built on me, and made me love them. I was so sunk into this book that I could feel the characters emotions, and even feel the magic coursing through them. This book was so amazing, that it had surrounded me and I became a part of it. I lost track of time, because I was living in another world. It is refreshing to be able to read something that can steal you away from your everyday worries, and life stuff. This book was the ultimate therapy. It has been a long time since I have been able to sit down, and read for a whole night and just escape to have new adventures, so I really enjoyed this book.

I would recommend this book to both adults ad teens that are looking for a good time, and an amazing adventure that you would want to last forever.

Witches Cursed Cabin (A Coon Hollow Coven Tale Book #2) Review!

About the book: 
 Eager to be on her own away from home, twenty-year-old Aggie Anders accepts a relative’s invitation to live in Coon Hollow Coven. Although she’s a witch from a different coven, what locals say about the Hollow confuses her. How can witchcraft there live and breathe through souls of the dead?

Aggie’s new residence in this strange southern Indiana world is a deserted homestead cabin. The property’s carriage house serves as the coven’s haunted Halloween fundraiser. It’s a great opportunity for her to make new friends, especially with the coven’s sexy new High Priest Logan.

But living in the homestead also brings Aggie enemies. Outsiders aren’t welcome. A cantankerous, old neighbor tries to frighten her off by warning her that the homestead is cursed. Local witches who practice black magic attempt to use their evil to drive Aggie away and rid their coven of her unusual powers as a sun witch.

Determined to stay and fit in, Aggie discovers not only that the cabin is cursed, but she alone is destined to break the curse before moonrise on Samhain. If she fails, neither the living nor the dead will be safe.

Series description:

The Coon Hollow Coven Tales series is about a coven of witches in a fictitious southern Indiana community, south of Bloomington, the neck of the woods where I spent my favorite childhood years surrounded by the love of a big family. The books are rich with a warm Hoosier down-home feel. There are interesting interactions between coven members and locals from the nearby small town of Bentbone. If magic wasn’t enough of a difference between the two groups, the coven folk adhere to the 1930s lifestyle that existed when the coven formed.

A note to readers: the books in the Coon Hollow Coven Tales series are written to be read in any order. The series is about one community, and its residents may pass in and out of various books, but each book has its own unique and special story to be told.

My Review: ✯✯✯✯✯
  I received a copy of this book free of charge in exchange for an honest review via Lovers Of The Paranormal book group on Goodreads.

This book throws you into a world of magic, and mystery that you won't want to leave. If you want to spend a night just getting away from everyday life then pick this book up. It will put some awesome magic, and mystery that you can't resist into your night. Good for both adults and teens I would call this a book good for everyone.

I was sad that life, health, and other things had to interfere with reading this book. Every time I had to put down this book I huffed and pouted, because I wanted to go deeper into this amazing and well written world. GOOD NEWS: I finally got to finish this book, and was so amazed at how much adventure this gave my life. You walk through a mystery, and this mystery was one of those ones that kept you wondering, and trying to figure things out. Twists and turns all through the book keep you latched on.

This book had a big family feel to it. You could really get to know just how much characters cared about one another. Then of coarse along with that family feel there is always that one person that just doesn't get it, and wants to cause trouble. The family which were mostly just amazing friends close enough to be family stuck together through it all.

So much magic was in this book. The magic seemed old and mysterious, and at other times new and exciting. Magic is a complicated thing, but as it seems when used for good, good things happen.

I must sound a little mysterious talking about the book like this, that is me just trying not to spoil a great story. You can live the mystery all yourself, and enjoy the fun of it. Take that time before bed when you worry about the little, and big things, and give this book a shot. You might find that this magical book can make your night a great one.

Norma Jean's School of Witchery Book 1 Review

 Norma Jean's School of Witchery Book 1
Author: Rose Montague
Book is available on Amazon! 

The Blurb:

Jewel has a problem. She's in a witch school and can't get the most basic spells to work. Her true magical talents must remain hidden. That might be hard to do with a killer on the loose. Murder, mayhem, and magic with a little romance along the way.

My Review: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 


This was amazing! This is one of those books that keeps you up all night. It is almost 6 am. I could not put the book down.

Rose takes you to a world of magic, and action. You won't want to put this one down. This book is easily a 5 star book. You won't be disappointed.

I loved this book completely through. I found the characters very easy to connect with, and at the same time felt like I was in their shoes. The characters also made me feel like I had a best friend. It is not often that I can find a book that I can actually come to the point of sadness of feeling like I am loosing a friend just by putting the book down. Hence the reason I could not put the book down.

That being said I would recommend this book to ages 15 and up, and to anyone looking for an action packed no nonsense amazing paranormal read.

The Awakening Review


About the book: 
 When Sophie moves to Boston to get away from the people who ridiculed her for her psychic talents, she wants to start fresh. But when a demon attacks her study group at the library, she has no choice but to reveal her abilities to warn the others.

She learns the attacks won't stop until she's dead. To stay alive she joins forces with the other students and a secret society that has battled the demons for centuries.

The last thing she wants to do is be a pawn in the war of good and evil. When her visions start showing events from a past life, she can't ignore the connections it shows. She has no choice but to acknowledge the bonds that tie her to the other students, even if some of them refuse, to have the strength to defeat the demon that hunts them down.

Will she survive long enough to stop the demons from destroying everything and everyone she loves?
My review:❤❤❤❤❤

 I  received a free copy of this book from netgalley in exchange for an honest review. The fact that I received this book for free in now way affects my view of the book.

This book is an action packed emotional paranormal thrill ride of a book that I could not put down.

This book made me sweat at times, because I was so caught up in the action of the book. I was living it all. I was sad the book had to end. I have to get the next book ASAP. There is a cliffhanger that makes you not just want to read the next book, but to actually need it.

Packed with demons and some very strong individuals with some very unique powers; this book gave me what I needed to take my mind off of life stressors. This book was definitely worth my time. I actually went out of my way to buy an extra copy of the book just in case. Yes I loved the book that much.

This book does have violence in it, but no greatly mature situations. I would recommend this book to people between the ages of 16 and up.

WINGS OF HOPE REVIEW.

Book Discription:
"I am his muse. But not for long..."

When Mammon, the Prince of Greed, 'acquires' a half-blood slave known as 'Muse' for three nights, and bespells her with tales of a world where people live like kings and queens among towers of steel and glass, the seed of hope takes root in Muse's soul. But hope, for a half-human half-demon creature like her, is a dangerous thing. Especially when that tentative hope springs from the honeyed words of a Prince of Hell. What is Mammon's price for freedom?

Meanwhile Da'mean, her ruthless owner, would rather see her dead, than free. She belongs to him. She is his muse. And no beast will take her from him.

The world of the elemental demons is harsh and violent. Muse's kin are merciless, blood-hungry beasts, but little do they know, Muse has something far more dangerous coiled inside her, desperate for a taste of freedom. 

Her humanity.

MY REVIEW: ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ 
I recived a free copy of this book via Netgally in exchange for an honest review. The fact that I recived this book for free in no way affects my views of the book.

Thrown into a harsh world of elemental demons this book keeps you hooked with one strong girl. She is a tough cookie. She has been through so much that reading about her just proves that people are stronger than they think. Don't loose hope, there is always hope.

I was unable to put this book down. The world, and characters that were put before me took me to a new place where I became part of them, and their world.

Muse was nothing but a shell until one day she finds hope. A piece of hope that puts her through a loop, but all that matters is that it was there when she needed it. I found myself hanging on through every experience. I hit the end of the book and happiness washed over me that I had found such a well written, and interesting book.

This book is not for the faint of heart. I would recommend it to mature readers, because of violence.
