Wingless and Damned by Dawn White


Wingless and Damned
by Dawn White

Published by:
Crushing Hearts and Black Butterfly Publishing

Book Description:
Alexander is the Alpha wolf of the Neuri werewolf tribe, set to destroy anything associated with the dreaded strigoi. Lea is a magnificent Fae -- or so she believed but she soon discovers she may not be after all. With Alexander, Lea’s and basically the worlds fate is in the hands of the mated pair. They must act fast and not just on the revenge they so desperately need. Can their love save us all? As Lea and Alexander’s souls hang in the balance they come to realize we are all a little Damned.


I received this book from the author for my honest review!

My Opinion:

When I was asked to read this book and review it I first looked it up on amazon and read the reviews. There were alot of 5 star reviews and the description it didn't quite seem like something I would like to read about. But I give every book a equal chance to catch my attention and this one did very quickly. Lets all admit that this kind of book genre isn't very popular well the paranormal part is.There was some parts of this book that I was confused about because of the wording but other then that I thought it was memorizing. The love between Alex and Lea was dreamy.  With the history behind this book, I think made what it is and helped the plot a lot. This author has a promising future, one that I look forward to reading. 

Stars:
I give it 4.5 out of 5 stars

Guardian Series by Gillian Joy


Forever and Guardian 
by Gillian Joy

Guardian Book Description (taken from amazon)

Headstrong and determined, Hannah always knew that she would become the Guardian. She was the keeper and the protector of all supernatural. What she didn't expect was that it would mean she would have to endure the agonising death of her mother first hand as their supernatural connection brings her to her knees, or that it would mean that she could never be with the man she loved.
Blond haired, blue eyed Gabriel was her handsome childhood friend, but would circumstances prevent her from ever being able to explore her true feelings for him?
Jesse, the dark alluring but incorrigible vampire would give anything to be with her, but as the guardian Hannah is forbidden to fall in love with the supernatural.
With her life in turmoil over her conflicting emotions about Gabriel and Jesse and her frustration at being unable to exact revenge for her mother’s horrific death, Hannah flees her life in an attempt to start over. But can we ever really escape from ourselves? 
There is no escaping destiny no matter how hard she might try and Hannah must learn to reconcile her commitment to her family with her responsibility as the Guardian and her duty to her heart.

Forever (Guardian) Book Description (taken from amazon)

Hannah’s life has never been easy, despite her strong willed determination and her extra “gifts”, it's still always been hard work keeping an entire world full of the supernatural under control, but having achieved a small semblance of control over most of the custas, Hannah was hoping to be able to slip back into her life of normalcy. Wishful thinking when you're the guardian of all supernatural. 
With all the issues she’d had to endure in her past, she'd never had to worry about the mermaids before, so why would they choose now to suddenly start haunting her dreams and her life. Then there are the fairies to contend with as well, just when she manages to get one aspect of the crudelitas under control, the others decide it’s time to start causing problems.
All Hannah wants is some quiet family time and a chance to reflect on her feelings for Gabriel but instead she's thrown back into the thick of the supernatural world, and this time it threatens to invade the quiet family life she has worked so hard to establish. There's no running away this time, she has to front the challenges head on, but forever can be a long time if you can't be with the one you love.

I was given these books by the author for my honest review!

My Opinion:

I knew from the very beginning before I even started this book I knew I would like it, why do you ask? Because it has everything I love to read about in it vampires, witches, werewolves everything! There is Hannah who knew what she wanted to be,but sadly lost her mother. She also has her hot childhood friend Gabriel who she's has feelings for but without revealing to much about the book she can either be with him or not. Then there is Jesse who is a hot vampire who is in love with Hannah and you can just tell that he would do anything for Hannah. The only problem with Jesse being what he is is that Hannah isn't allowed to be with him. That's just all in the first book! There is so much that happens in the first book that makes you think how can this author write another? What else could happen to Hannah and everyone but she does! Forever is the squeal is I have to say I was completely wrong! Most squeals aren't as good as the first book but that isn't the case here. In this book, I feel so bad for Hannah she worked so hard for the life she has now and it might be destroyed. I hope that this series will continue and I will be anxiously awaiting to read it. Gillian Joy is one talented author and is a raising star in the paranormal genre!  I would recommend this book to anyone who like myself love to read about vampires, witches, werewolves heck anything paranormal with a hint of romance.

The Story of Rachel by K.D. McLean



The Story of Rachel
by K.D McLean

 July 27, 2012


Book Description (taken from amazon):
Rachel, a successful reporter has experienced the modern, urban cycle of life – marriage, career building, divorce, then internet dating. She is almost ready to give up on meeting the right guy. She wonders where all of the self assured, interesting men are, do they exist or more likely are already taken. 
At an erotic art exhibit displaying scenes of dominance, bondage and pain, Rachel is intrigued. While there, she meets a man who knows what he wants; he wants her. 
Handsome, and urbane Michael introduces her to a world of uninhibited eroticism, blending pain and pleasure, weaving the two strands into a rope of desire. He teaches Rachel the rules in the Dominant/Submissive relationship - where sexual pleasure can increase if paired with pain. He tantalizes her. She aches for the release his touch brings and willingly submits. She learns of the many flavors of eros in her visit to the private and exclusive club – Pandora’s.
In her yearning Rachel finds new depths of sensuality, and pleasures she never knew she possessed. Michael learns from Rachel's courage in love to confront and break his own bonds of fear.

I was given this book by the author for my honest review

My Opinion:

I find myself reading more and more of these kinds of books everyday. The last couple of books have been romance books and everyone knows my genre is paranormal and paranormal romance but I think I might have to change favorite genres. Rachel and Michael has some chemistry and it shows as soon as they are introduced. I found myself blushing at many different parts of this book and laughing at the fact that I was blushing. This book reminded me a lot of 50 shades because that was the first series I read that had BDSM lifestyle in it. After this series I think I will be reading more of this kind of lifestyle. The way that Rachel was portrayed beautifully and I think that was right on the mark. And with Michael as he introduces a new lifestyle to Rachel is a new Christian Gray but with a little more nice I guess I would put it.  I can not wait to read more of this cute interesting couple!

The Secrets of Car Flipping: A Step by Step Guide For Buying and Selling Used Cars by Cleveland Williams



The Secrets of Car Flipping: A Step by Step Guide for Buying and Selling Used Cars
by Cleveland Williams

September 21, 2012

Book Description (taken from amazon):

The Secrets of Car Flipping is a very detailed and informative look into the world of buying and selling used cars. Car sales is a multi-billion dollar a year business. Buying and selling used cars is not only big business, but also a necessity for millions of people who need transportation. Buying a used car is generally less expensive than buying a new car. Most people buy used cars with the hopes of finding a nice, dependable car at a great price. But many people find out that buying a used car can put them in a situation they regret. Usually that is because they went to buy the car without the right knowledge or guide to help them through the process. There are a lot of do's, don'ts, and things you need to look for when you are buying a used car. You also need to make sure you are getting the best deal possible. With The Secrets of Car Flipping you are given all the information and tools you need to buy and sell cars like a professional buyer. This information is for anyone: the first time car buyer, the family looking for an extra car, or the car flipper trying to find a deal on a good car. This book will make you a more confident and informed buyer.

I was given this book by the author for my honest review

My Opinion:

This book came at a perfect time for me and my family because we were in the process of looking for a new car because our old one broke. So when I got this book in the mail I was so excited to start reading it hoping it would help me and Boy did it! After I got done reading it, I felt I knew a lot more about what to do and what not to do while looking for a car. The part I think that helped the most was the questions to ask the buyer about the car and how to neg. a price on a used car.

I would love to think the author for giving me this book, I would never have found the car I have without reading this book first. I think everyone should get this book if you are looking for a used car. I also believe that it would help anyone with selling a car as well, but my main focus was looking for to buy a car. lol Go buy this book!

SHADOWLOVE-STALKERS (Shadow (vampire) series) By: Claudy Conn


ShadowLove Stalkers
By: Claudy Conn

 May 29, 2011


Book Description: (taken from amazon)

What do you do when your father wants to turn you into a vampire and the man who offers you protection has his own, dark agenda?

Shawna Rawley has no choice but to run. Pentim Rawley, one of the most evil vampires who has ever lived, has just discovered that she is his daughter. Now he’s obsessed with finding and turning her. She doesn’t want Pentim to find the people she loves and use them to get to her. She doesn’t want him to find and turn her. She has only one ace up her sleeve. The human in her may be at risk, but in addition to being half vamp, Shawna is also a white witch!

Chad MacFare has an offer for Shawna he thinks she can’t afford to refuse: he’ll protect her from Pentim and his minions. But Shawna doesn’t trust the sexy immortal. She knows he has his own agenda—he wants to kill her father, and he wants to set her up as bait…

My Opinion:

Once again Claudy does it again. Where do I start with this book? It had my attention from the very first page to the very last one. She made Shawna funny, well not funny but feisty and entertaining as hell to read about. Then you have Pentim who you know is dangerous but you can also tell he is sexy and very alluring vampire. Shawna and Pantim is a match made in heaven well maybe not heaven. I think the way Claudy made Shawn half witch and half vampire makes u just want to read about it because you know the plot is good especially with her writing history. Shawna is a good person, she never did anything bad she didn't even use human blood for anything! There are so many emotions while reading this book, and I was pregnant when I read this book so I was extra emotional. This story isn't like most I read first its a romance book and somehow Claudy has got me hooked on her romance books. And Second, I just can't stay away from her books period no matter if they are paranormal or not.

Shadows & Voices by Jason Ellis


Shadows & Voices (Holly Silverstone, #1)



Publication Date: March 7, 2012


Book Description: (taken from amazon)

Meet young Holly Silverstone, the girl who sees daisies turn to butterflies ... who dreams of places that she has never been to ... who is invited to study at the elusive and enchanting Highlands Academy of truth and excellence.

The voices will come, one-thousand and one, the voices will come. Fear is the key, fear to see. The voices will come, one-thousand and one, the voices will come.

As Holly took a sip of her tea and held the piece of paper between her fingers, veins of ink slowly crept across the paper. She wanted to drop it and scream … yet a more powerful part of her made the fingers on her hands grasp the letter even tighter and her eyes open wider.
The ink seeped and whirled around, forming words;

We have a question for you, Holly.
Do you want to know how the daisies turned to butterflies?


I was given this book by the author for my honest opinion.

My Opinion:

Holly is a very special girl, she has magic. Well she has magic in her and she goes to a school for people like her. This book is surrounded by Holly but around magic and how to live with it. I wish I could escape to this school. Anyways, Holly goes to this magic school and she becomes really close friends with a teacher name Ovissa Slater. Who goes missing, and Holly is devastated. Then decides to start her own investigating and start looking for her friend.  The bad part about that situation is she gets into trouble and danger! You start to think why doesn’t she just give up will she?
I loved this book! I was on the edge of my seat for half of the book, and this book had me hooked from the beginning. There was so many parts of this book, well actually the whole book where you have to give your full attention to understand it. Which you should in all the books yoread. I felt for Holly throughout this book, with everything she went through even after her teacher goes missing is amazing. This author does a great job with detail and developing characters throughout the book without giving out everything in the beginning like some books.

The Citizens by L.M Smith


The Citizens (Jazz Nemesis #1)


Book Description (taken from goodreads):

Imagine a town where you can stay out as late as you want, wake up when it suits you, you never have to go to work, and everything is free for the taking. Sounds perfect right? But what if you can’t remember where you are or how you got there? What if you can’t ever leave? And what if the only other people around are hostages, just like you? Would you still want to stay?

Jasmine Marshall certainly didn’t think so until she met Justin Beck; a dashing active-duty member of the United States Army and fellow hostage. With him around life in Kolob might not be so bad after all … or so she thought. There are vampires and psychics at the breakfast table! Disturbing acts of torture and senseless violence are commonplace. Biochemical warfare is a very real threat, and the town’s mayor is an elusive mad-scientist obsessed with his own theories about December 21, 2012!

In a place where one has everything to gain and nothing to lose, one thing reigns true: nothing in Kolob is ever as it seems.

I was given this book by the author for my honest review!

My Opinion:

Where to begin with this book? How about AMAZING! It was also creepy at the same time. This small town of Kolob there are many secrets and many weird things going on. I mean really what would you do if you woke up in this town where you had no idea how you got there or where you are? Me personally, I would be freaking out. Then there was the thing with all the cameras. Who could deal with your every move being watch? The only upside of all of this is that everything is free, but I’m not sure if I would be ok with everything else through. This book got my attention from the very beginning and kept my attention til the end. Bad part about this book was that it kept me on the edge of my seat for a lot of parts! I even had my husband laughing at me because I would sit up really fast and he would ask me what’s wrong and I would go “shhh I’m at a good part”. I’m not sure if that’s even a bad part but it certainly was funny. L.M Smith is a talented author who wrote a book with twist after twist and didn’t give anything away til the end. All the questions in your head while reading this book wont be answered til the end. Trust me through that made the book!

On another note I would love for this book be made into a movie!!

Finding Summerland by Paige Bleu



Finding Summerland
by Paige Bleu

Publication Date: July 17, 2012



Book Description (taken from amazon):

After his brothers recent disapearance Wesley Rochester wished he could just fade into obscurity. Searching for closure, he's haunted by visons. Consumed with decoding the messages, he begins turning dangerously deeper inward. Enter an intriguing, 'not quite' human stranger, who mysteriously arrives just as he feels all hope is lost. Together they begin to realize that their destinies are intricately tangled in a drama reaching far beyond the realms of the wold they know. Discovering the secrets plaguing wesley since childhood are no coincidence, and everything he believes is shattered. Captivated by her, he must decide between the life he has and the one he'd forgotten. 

'Finding Summerland' is like 'Twilight' in the sense that it is a supernatural, coming of age romance—but has a genre bending, metaphysical element and a much deeper rabbit hole. Follow the journey of two star crossed souls as they explore who they are and the ties that bind them. Enter a world intentionally forgotten. A place buried by history, where only the chosen are aware of its existence. A place covenants are made and broken, where myth leads to truth and forbidden love threatens to destroy or be destroyed, becoming just another casualty in their shadow war. 

The introductory novel in a series of five, called 'The Ameryn Chronicles'—but compelling enough to stand alone—'Finding Summerland' is sure to be savored by anyone craving to stretch the bounds of ordinary imagination, edgy enough to engage readers who enjoy unravelling a mystery, and sweet enough to grab onto the hearts of the romance lovers! Where legends breathe and dreams are alive. A 'trippy' journey to a new reality.

I was given this book for my honest review by the author

My Opinion:
Wesley Rochester was what you would call a stranger in his own family. His sister had won every pageant and contest that she entered and his brother was a athlete, a star athlete. To his friends his name is Wes didn’t really belong in his family. He was told that he had a learning disability, ADD but did he? All he wanted to do was stay in his room and play his guitar with no one around his to bug him. What I thought the weirdest thing about this book was his dreams. Where he was drawing and drawing but only woke up to one drawing. Everything changed for Wes of course as soon as he met a girl who was watching him. Her name is Olivia. From there on Wes’s life will never be the same.

This book was filled with so much emotion, makes you wonder if the author herself cried, laughed when was needed. I know it took me on an emotional roller coaster ride. With Wes’s family ways and how he doesn’t fit into his own family it made my heartache for him.  I find this book a paranormal romance genre and right up my alley on what I like to read. To think that I read this book within 2 days, that shows you how much I loved this book and cant wait to read more on this series. I am happy that the second book will be out soon. I also put off on finishing this book because I didn’t want to wait to see what happens and I wanted to stay in Wes’s and Olivia’s world. I think a HUGE thank you is in order to the author for writing such an amazing book! And I look forward to reading more from this author rather it’s the next book in this series or a short story I don’t care.

Runaway Heart by Claudy Conn


Runaway Heart
by Claudy Conn

 September 24, 2012


Book Description: (taken from goodreads)

Spirited Chelsea decided she’d sooner run away to London than return to her vain and selfish guardian, Aunt Augusta.
But in her wildest dreams, she never imagined her dear godmother would arrange a Season—or convince the ton’s most eligible bachelor to take her under his wing.

Lord Wainwright was a handsome rogue who was not interested in coy games and missish airs. He expected a country mouse with no polish, but instead he found a thoroughly engaging minx, and was oddly irritated by all the male attention she received.

Chelsea with her unspoiled eye saw beyond Wainwright’s pursuit of hedonism to the intriguing man underneath. But to her shock, it appeared his heart belonged to her horrid Aunt Augusta!

Adult-content rating: This book contains content considered unsuitable for young readers 17 and under, and which may be offensive to some readers of all ages.

My Opinion:

I wasn't sure if I would like this book, not because of the author or any other reasons but one its a romance book. I don't read romance books unless its a paranormal romance genre. I find romance books are boring and have no point to them well I think this book has changed my mind. Who knew this short story book would change my mind about romance! Anyways, back to the what the book was about. I first started out feeling bad for Chelsea and the life she was living by being by herself. No parents and what I call a pain in the butt aunt who doesn't care about her. Then Lord Wainwright comes into the picture. Even through you can't really see him because after all it's a book but you can tell he is sexy! Lord Wainwright is a ladies man who I think doesn't know how to love but after hanging out with Chelsea he is memorized by her. 
Given some parts of this book you could see coming but the way Claudy had wrote those parts in was better then what I had imagine in my mind. I'm glad I was given the chance to read this book and that it was free for me to get it! The romance between Chelsea and Lord Wainwright is dreamy and charming. Also, how the author's writing was in descriptive and not run on was amazing. I will be reading more of her work for sure! And maybe I see some more romance books in my life.

The Moon Sealers book 2 by Tim Flanagan


The Moon Stealers and the Queen of the Underworld (The Moon Stealers #2)


Book Description: (taken from goodreads)
After finding the magical Silver Bough in the first Moon Stealer book, the portal to the underworld opens enabling Sir Edgar and the children; Max, Joe and Scarlet to jump through. They find themselves in a world at war and quickly become involved in an uprising against the Faerie Queen.

Their quest to find Peter Crisp continues, but the threat of the alien bacteria back home looms over them. Sir Edgar's attempt at gaining the Faerie Queens help in ridding the Moon Stealers from Earth looks like it may be a fruitless task.

In such an unchartered land it's difficult knowing who is friend and who is foe. Danger lurks in the most innocent of places.

I was given this book by the author for my honest review

My Review: 
No words can describe how excited I was to read this book especially how after the first one ended. When I had gotten the email from the author saying he would like me to review this I was jumping up and down and rushed through the book I was reading at just to get to this book! Crazy Edgar,Max, Joe and Scarlet have no idea what they are getting into when trying to help the Faerie home from the evil queen. The adventures or fights they get into had me on the edge of my seat for most of the book! I couldn't put it down at all til I had it finished, which took me 2 days. I'm not sure if that part will upset the author or make him proud that his writing is amazing! The bad part (yes there is a bad part) is that this book in this series ended in another cliffhanger! UGH! Tim Flanagan how can you do this to me again! Not to mention I have to wait til book 3 comes out, trust me I will be bugging you and stalking your facebook page to see how far along you are and when this book is coming out! I hope this series never ends and that all the adventures everyone goes through never stops. I would recommend this book to anyone who wants a good read and a adventures that add in paranormal side.
