Transitional Elements by Adrienne Gordon

When I read books by this author I always look for the other meaning that is really behind the story he writes . He is so creative that way its what I enjoy about his books. Like getting two for one. It might be a fantasy story but there is a purpose that makes you think about reality and the life we live today. Jonadon is sort of a terminator sent to planets to infiltrate them finding out their weakness so they can be taken over and replaced with a Malsun and be ruled or destroyed. Since Jonadon has lost his love his wife he has no hope so he doesn't care who gets hurt or how many die in the process. Usually he gets a female to fall in love with him and when the time comes for the Malsun to take over he turns the other way and just leaves. This time he meets his match Hajlin seems to know his plans but has hope spending time with him he will see that what he is doing is not right. When the time comes what will this traitor do? Will he choose love over duty did he learn hope and faith from Hajlin's people? Guess you better read it . Story is not long and really good you may get something different out of it than I did. I would love to know what you thought.

Ghost Diaries case 1 by Willow Cross

Sarah was a young innocent girl who becomes ill after her father buys her a silver trinket box. He trades some food for the box from a strange unkempt fellow who seems to think Sarah is perfect for the trinket box. As we read the entries to a few diaries it seems as if a demon was using her for his pleasure. Making her life seem odd and as if she was going crazy she talked to him he had a name .She ended up being unkempt and evil like and all the help left them there alone just her and her mother and father. Since this is the first case I'm anxious to see if the other cases are related . Maybe the trinket box is still out there circulating and possessing others. A friend of mine gave me a silver metal box it disappeared a while ago I'm not sure I want to find it now. I enjoyed reading the diary entries makes the book different then others out there. As always Willow Cross has me guessing ,was it real was it fake ? Who and what are in Case 2 of Ghost Diaries I'm waiting cause I'm possessed to reading Willow Cross.

Desolace (Desolace, #1)Desolace by Lucian Barnes
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

First you have a serial killer and two typical teenage girls Julie and Katie. One night playing with a Ouija board call up a victim ghost and follow her to the killer. The girls feel no one will believe them its their old bus driver so they stay quite. Katie doesn't mention a word even after her best friend Julie gets kidnapped by the killer. Instead she sets off with the ghost and a friend,from the spirit world I guess Edward to find her hopefully in time. The killer hears a voice telling him what to do. Get more humans to put to work making metal creatures . Must admit I was confused kept waiting for it all to be in the killers head . So now I'm traveling to Haven to get my answers. I did stay up late reading it ,I did enjoy it and I hope to find out if Julie is still alive and what purpose the metal creatures play and how it all joins together .

The Horror Challenge by @JH GLaze

A group of short stories These are great stories for right before its time to turn off the light. I found though reading one just wasn't good enough. They start off with a Spooky Piano giving a woman who lost her mother some financial help plus good memories. To a man traveling to space in a his last attempt to keep his smelly old comfy chair and save the world while watching Star Trek reruns . I wonder was he wearing a red suit? Ends with a Damsel in Distress being a creature a man saves of course the humans are ignorant to creatures of other worlds. My favorite is Cable Bill these are great to read while cooking dinner also I shouldn't burn anything think I'll save Horror Challenge Two just for that. Grab a copy for yourself .

Candlewax by C. Bailey Sims

Princess Catherine of Crystallia was to be wed to the Candlewax King who she thought was stiff as what else candle wax. So she ran a way and upon her journey she bumped into a very large cat a Fairrier. Catherine thought these fairrier cats were only in her grandmothers fairytales. Pokos for short reconized Catherine by the pendant her grandmother gave her he told her of her legacy. The pendant was a talisman and she was Catherine of the Ancient Onyxes she would save the country of Lackanay. They had to travel to Cinna and bring back other Fairrers like Pokos to keep the Todliks from eating up everything in their site. Catherine wants to marry for love so she agrees to go with Pokos but Kallik an evil Ruler and killer of Fairrers wants to stop her and tries to kidnap her but the Candlewax King recues her. Catherine meets up with some others and together they try to fulfill her legacy while others try to help Kallik take over Candlewax and capture all the big cats. Along the journey Catherine and the Candlewax King fall in love much to their surprise.


I really enjoyed this book it was very interesting . It was kind of in the future yet days of old. Having a gate to cross like time travel speaking in mind only then having an arrow contest to solve a disagreement to the death . I was entertained from start to finish I can't wait for the next one so glad Pokos made it and hope he gives Kallik a hard way to go .

Lord of the Abyss

Liliana the daughter of a Blood Sorcerer cast a spell and ended up inside the Black Castle of the Lord of the Abyss
She is trying to end the years long spell that was put on Lord Micah's family as they were children. Her father was a
monster and would use her in cruel ways to cast spells. She looked at Micah and couldn't believe her eyes he wasn't ugly
as others said because of being in charge of the Abyss where servants of evil were banished to suffer eternal torment.
To Liliana he was a prince charming dressed in his battle protective wear he is forced to wear. Micah was surprised to
find someone brave enough to enter his castle so he put her in the dungeon. She can cook so he lets her and they grow
care about each other. Micah falls in love with her and will give his life for her Liliana can't believe it because
all she has ever been told is how ugly she is. They travel together to kill her father and save their land and lift the
spell. The people that he has had control over begin to realize that he is not as nasty as they thought and its not
because he gives them gifts for their help. He also proves that he cares for more then himself.




I really enjoyed the book from beginning to end had lots of action in all aspects . Micah found
love in Lily ,it was hard for him to let her know. She couldn't believe it because her father always told her she was ugly.
Sometimes feelings can't be told out loud but you can always show them in your actions. There was an extra read at the end
Thanks.

Covet by Felicity Heaton my first Erotica review

Stay Heated until the end.

I started reading this book and thought Oh its just the usual same old same old. Boy was I fooled. Javier and Lilah just burn off the pages. There has to be more to their story ,the club alone sounds so interesting. The character Snow doesn't even cool off anything in this book. The forbidden love that catches fire the way Ms. Heaton writes it leaves nothing to imagine their strong desire and pent up love for each other once they act on it. Wishing there is more to come as Lilah is turned . I can only hope . Thanks for the ARC.

I didn't want to give much of the story away to spoil it for everyone but I would love to read more about the character Snow. The way it was written he was sounding maybe evil but no way I believe there is a loving man there just needing the right woman am I a romantic nah! who me?
