Although this book revolves around a central romance, the tone of the book felt much more like an epic novel to me. This is the first novel in a series concerning the age old confrontation between good and evil, which always involves an intricate story line. Lord of the Fading Lands is no exception, and…
This is another installment in Lora Leigh’s Breed series, and in my opinion, one of the better ones. Scheme Tallant’s father Cyrus is responsible for the orders that sent countless Breeds to their deaths. Tanner Reynolds, a Bengal Tiger Breed, believes Scheme played a role in her father’s actions. He plans to kidnap her and…
When I picked up The Lure of the Wolf, I thought that I was in for another fun shapeshifter series. Unfortunately, I found cardboard, beefcake males who spurn clothing, and the women who have sex with them for two days straight and call it love. There was also a fantastic alternate reality world that nearly…
Touch of Darkness continues the story of the cursed shape-changing Varinski family (first encountered in Scent of Darkness). I thought the premise of the book was quite intriguing, but the execution left me vastly underwhelmed. I know that paranormals are hot right now, but not every author should jump on the wagon. Centuries ago, one…
Other books from this author have been hits or misses for me, however, Hidden Moon read almost like a gothic novel and I couldn’t put it down. The sometimes mysterious and creepy atmosphere, along with the enigmatic hero, really added to the adventure. Claire Kennedy has returned to Lake Bluff, Georgia from Atlanta. Nothing in…
Finally, an author has written an exceptional werewolf romance with an unyielding female as its lead. Kathy Love’s My Sister is a Werewolf is loosely connected to her other series featuring three vampire brothers; this story is about their baby sister, an intelligent and loving woman who wants to be “normal,” which means being human….
Despite the hot sex and the paranormal theme, there is something about Scent of Darkness that seems a bit out of step. This one feels, to be honest, like an Harlequin Presents paranormal, if such a beast existed. You’ve got a virginal heroine who was actually raised in an orphanage (do they even exist anymore?)…
The frantic pace of this storyline and some poor choices by the heroine made it hard to enjoy this book, even though I liked the characters. I found myself dragging my feet every time I had to pick it up. This is clearly connected with other works by this author, although keeping up with past…
Blood Lines is the third book in a series, following Tempting Danger and Mortal Danger. I think the author summed it up well in this paragraph: “The world was set up to be blasted with repeated doses of magic, changing everything, probably killing people. Demons were popping up all over, and an Old One who’d…
Ready for a new series featuring a group of super-hunky paranormal warriors with a duty to protect humankind from all kinds of demonic and quasi-mortal bad guys? Well, whether you want it or not, you’ve got one, this time by Gothic historical romance author Jennifer St. Giles. I’ll admit that all this paranormal stuff is…
