The common element in Cupid Cats is the eponymous cat shelter that provides sleek, cuddly felines of various magical propensities. As the paranormal levels vary, so does the quality of each story, and the book progresses rather like hurdles: I cleared the first story with ease, soared over the second, and the last one fell…
In the mashup-crazed world of publishing, cowboy vampires were bound to happen. It seems like a worthy premise — romance-hero cowboys and romance-hero vampires both tend to be alluring outsiders whose rebelliousness and sensuality is irresistible to heroines of all stripes. I know from McCarty’s earlier novels that she can make erotic Western historicals work….
Although I’ve heard the Sookie Stackhouse series praised for years, I was reluctant to dive in. I didn’t think I’d be interested in an open ended series with the possibility of more than one romantic hero. I want to read romance with just a side dish of adventure and I relish those solidly wrapped up…
Frankly, I wasn’t sure how to grade Dreamveil. Did I love the book? No. Did I feel satisfied? Emphatic no. Do I believe in the happily-ever-after? Huge, hulking no. But will I keep reading the Kyndred series? Hell, yes. This is the lowdown on our Kyndred superheroes after the explosive events of Shadowlight: Matthias and…
While Beast Behaving Badly was potentially hilarious and fun, it quickly shifted into an over-the-top chaotic story, with a hyperactive heroine very similar to the Energizer Bunny and a hero who is not nearly as badass as he’d like to be. Bo Novikov is a half-lion, half-bear shapeshifter who plays professional shapeshifter hockey, which is…
This was screaming DNF from page three, yet I trudged on wearily for the sake of this review. For your sake, I tell you, please don’t waste time with The Jaguar Prince. The cartoonish quality of the characters and the bad writing leaves much to be desired. Callie Jordon is a zoo keeper. One night,…
The Otherworld. A place of werewolves and witches. Sorcerers and demons. Kelley Armstong has enchanted readers with her series of magical, spine chilling novels about this wonderous and dangerous sphere. For those who have long wanted more back ground on her captivating lead characters or who have wanted to get closer to her mesmerizing and…
At the legendary Battle of Thermopylae, King Leonidas and seven of his fiercest Spartan warriors made a deal with Ares, the god of war. They became immortal protectors of mankind, fighting demons and creators of wars. Aware that Ares was a capricious god, they still believed that their goal was a noble one and agreed…
Assassin’s Honor is an interesting book. While not entirely original, the concept is a good one, although slow plot development and slightly ambiguous main characters bogged the story down. Deep inside the burial chamber of Ptolemy I, archaeologist Emma Zale finds an icon that provides the first proof that the mythical Sicari, Ptolemy’s personal guard,…
When it comes to paranormals, I’m willing to try almost anything, just for variety’s sake. So when I saw that The Wish Listfeatured a fairy godmother, I had to read it. After all, who knows how it will turn out? Kristin Montgomery just got some very interesting news. First, magic exists. Second, her three aunts…
