Waiting on Wednesday (28) The Veil

Hey y'all, thanks so much for stopping by my WoW!

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine which spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Seven years ago, the Veil that separates humanity from what lies beyond was torn apart, and New Orleans was engulfed in a supernatural war. Now, those with paranormal powers have been confined in a walled community that humans call the District. Those who live there call it Devil's Isle.

Claire Connolly is a good girl with a dangerous secret: she’s a Sensitive, a human endowed with magic that seeped through the Veil. Claire knows that revealing her skills would mean being confined to Devil’s Isle. Unfortunately, hiding her power has left her untrained and unfocused.

Liam Quinn knows from experience that magic makes monsters of the weak, and he has no time for a Sensitive with no control of her own strength. But when he sees Claire using her powers to save a human under attack—in full view of the French Quarter—Liam decides to bring her to Devil’s Isle and the teacher she needs, even though getting her out of his way isn’t the same as keeping her out of his head.

But when the Veil threatens to shatter completely, Claire and Liam must work together to stop it, or else New Orleans will burn…

Why am I waiting?

Oh my....can they save New Orleans? Can Claire be trained? A new series, one that hopefully will entertain as much as her previous ones.

His mouth met mine, and I almost chocked on surprise. Then his hand slid behind my neck and his head tilted, and I had a second to decide whether to bite his tongue off or kiss him back.

Sometimes life leaves a mark…

Most days, Andrea doesn’t know whether she wants to kiss Tanner or punch him in the gut. He is seriously hot, with legit bedroom eyes and that firefighter body of his, but he’s a major player, and they can’t get along for more than a handful of minutes. Until now.

Tanner knows he and Andrea have had an epic love/hate relationship for as long as he can remember, but he wants more love than hate from her. He wants her. Now. Tomorrow. But the more he gets to know her, the more it becomes obvious that Andrea has a problem. She’s teetering on the edge and every time he tries to catch her, she slips through his fingers.

Andrea’s life is spiraling out of control, and it doesn’t matter that Tanner wants to save her, because when everything falls apart and she’s speeding toward rock bottom, only she can save herself.

Sometimes life makes you work for that happily ever after…

My Opinion

Andrea is Sydney’s old roommate and gal bestie. Tanner is Kyler’s best friends. The four of them hang out a lot. Tanner and Andrea do not get along- no one really knows why though. One night while out Andrea has a little too much to drink, Tanner steps up and takes care of her. This makes him decide that he wants to get to know her better. There has always been an unspoken attraction to her but know he wants to find out the real Andrea, maybe even stop fighting with her.

Andrea is such a strong personality. She has a problem, one she wants to hide. Hiding it is something she is every good at. Sometimes hiding makes the problem worse- this is one of those times. Bad things happen and she has to face the consequences of her actions. Andrea does whole heartedly and boy is the result amazing.

Tanner is an amazing guy. He tells her that she has a problem, she of course denies it. He is there to help, if she wants it. He wants so badly for things to work out between them. He gives her the support and space that she needs.

Scorched is a book that tackles hard issues. Real issues- it is the type of book that I normally avoid. JLA wrote it though so it was on auto-click for me. Scorched made me cry. I am not talking about a pretty cry either instead that ugly red face snotty cry. In the end though, I feel like a better person for having read it. That is something that is hard for a writer to do. You got to hand it to her JLA has some mad writing skills.

Blue Reynolds knows the darker side of New Never City—the side that’s hopped-up on fairy dust and doesn’t care if your house gets blown down. Rent’s due and his PI business is all but make
believe. But even Blue shudders at having to chase after Isabella Davis, a freckle-nosed redhead five feet tall on her tip-toes…if you don’t count the pretty pink wings.

Izzy is tough, and sneaky, and not too thrilled with the idea of being the new tooth fairy. The last six have been most gruesomely extracted. But Blue has a feeling that whoever is killing the tooth fairies is worse than your standard big bad psycho. The fairy council is hiding something. The Shadows are moving out into the light. And Blue is saddled with a shocking power that could take out half of New Never City…

My Opinion

Jack the Tooth Ripper has killed the last seven tooth fairies. Twin fairies who are the uncle to the next tooth fairy hires Blue to keep her safe. First of course he has to find her- Izzy doesn’t want to be the tooth fairy. Once he does, he is in trouble. He promises to keep her safe- doesn’t he know the way stories go? Keeping her safe may just kill him.

Blue Reynolds is an interesting fellow- his hair is bright blue and well he is electrifying. Literally when his emotions run high so does the voltage. He doesn’t let this get him down though instead he uses it to his advantage. He does have moments when his curse sucks. He is a man of honor- trying over and over again to keep his promises. I think that is what I liked most about him. He jumps head first into a situation if it means keeping his word. Izzy is a smart tough gal who can look after herself. She is hiding something from Blue.

The Fairyland Murders is a clever murder mystery set in the fairytale realm. I did not guess who the Tooth Ripper was at all, so that aspect of the story was intriguing. However, there was little to know relationship building, definitely no romance. While Blue and Izzy has some moments of flirtatious bickering that was about it. If you like mystery novels then you may like this one just keep in mind that it is set in the realm of fairytale land.

My Rating 3 out of 5 stars

Some people believe you can fall in love at first sight. When it comes to books I believe those people. Book trailers are an excellent way to fall in love at first sight. I hope to feature a book trailer here every Saturday to help you fall in love at first sight...





Things are getting desperate for Maya and her friends. Hunted by the powerful St. Clouds and now a rival Cabal as well, they're quickly running out of places to hide. And with the whole world thinking
they died in a helicopter crash, it's not like they can just go to the authorities for help.

All they have is the name and number of someone who might be able to give them a few answers. Answers to why they're so valuable, and why their supernatural powers are getting more and more out of control.

But Maya is unprepared for the truths that await her. And now, like it or not, she'll have to face down some demons from her past if she ever hopes to move on with her life. Because Maya can't keep running forever.

Old secrets are revealed and unexpected characters make a surprising return in this stunning conclusion to Kelley Armstrong's New York Timesbestselling Darkness Rising trilogy.

Review: Hollywood Witch Hunter

Publisher Bloomsbury Spark
Published July 20, 2015

From the moment she first learned the truth about witches…she knew she was born to fight them.

Now, at sixteen, Iris is the lone girl on the Witch Hunters Special Ops Team.

But when Iris meets a boy named Arlo, he might just be the key to preventing an evil uprising in Southern California.

Together they're ready to protect the human race at all costs. Because that's what witch hunters do.

Welcome to Hollywood

My Opinion

Witches are girls, hunters are boys. This is the way things have been since well the beginning until that is now. Iris was born with the Hunter gene- the first girl ever. This means she is held to a higher standard, the professors are harder on her, her base leader (her dad) is really hard on her. She trains, she fights she is not allowed to make mistakes. Then a girl-next-door celebrity dies under her protection, on her watch- murdered by a witch.

Arlo is a new recruit which is in itself unusual as he was not already on the WHO radar. They typically know who the hunters are from the day they are born. Arlo doesn’t want to be a hunter, he wants to be musician. What he doesn’t know is that he doesn’t have a choice. Iris has to show him the ropes and train him.

The death of the celebrity though, it is bothering her. Yeah, people die, witches kill them all the time but she was watching. How could Belinda of all witches kill her? Why would Belinda who is never sloppy be sloppy now? Something is not adding up. When Iris starts asking questions though she may not like the answers.

Iris is a strong female- a protector. She needs the answers to the questions that are bothering her. A weaker person would have walked away. She is not that type of person. She is tenacious in her search for the truth- this gets her in trouble. Arlo seems naïve, yet observant of the things that are going around WHO headquarters. More so than the veteran students.

Belinda is supposed to be the big baddie in this story. I just can’t help but love her. She is always coming to Iris’ rescue even though Iris’ is hunting her. She knows something is not right just what it is though is anyone’s guess. Yeah, she messes up a few times but hey she’s only human…and a witch.

Hollywood Witch Hunter started off slow for me, it wasn’t until about chapter seven that things start to pick up. Once it does though it is an action-paced adrenaline rush to the end. The ending is a shocker and I cannot wait to see what happens in the next book.

My Rating 4 out of 5 stars

Waiting on Wednesday (27) Sweet Temptation

Hey y'all, thanks so much for stopping by my WoW!

Waiting On Wednesday is a weekly meme, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine which spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.

Bad boy Kaidan Rowe has never wanted for anything—money, popularity, musical talent…hot girls—but seducing them is part of his duty as a Nephilim, slave to the demon Dukes. As the son of the Duke of Lust, Kaidan has learned his father’s ways, becoming a master of passion, a manipulator of chemistry. Disobeying his father would mean certain death. Thankfully for Kaidan, he’s good at his job. And he enjoys it. 

Until he meets Anna Whitt—sweet, smart, feisty, and inexplicably good—the one girl seemingly immune to his charms. The daughter of a guardian angel and a fallen one, she has a certain power over him, one that makes him wish for more than he could ever deserve. 

Determined to save all the Neph from their dark lives as the influencers of sin, Anna joins forces with Kaidan to overcome the demons’ oppressive ways. In the light of her affections, Kaidan must undergo his toughest test of all, a battle of the heart.

Sensual and swoon worthy, this companion volume to the acclaimed Sweet Evil series from New York Times bestselling author Wendy Higgins, told from the perspective of the irresistibly sexy and mysterious Kaidan Rowe, gives readers revealing insights into his struggle, his intense connection to Anna, and most of all, the true emotions that drive him.

Author Note:

Sweet Temptation will encompass the entire trilogy in a condensed version, beginning with Kai's life before he met Anna, and taking readers through the epilogue of Sweet Reckoning. Sweet Temptation is a companion novel, not meant to be a stand alone story. It will definitely be a richer experience for those who have read the original trilogy.

Why am I waiting?

Umm Kaidan’s point of view? Seriously, can anyone who read the series not be waiting for this book? Hopefully, we can get some insight into some of the stupid stuff he did.

At that moment a fire glowed inside Iris, thawing her from the inside out and fueling a growing anger she'd been feeling since the first time her father lied to her.

Review: The Fill In Boyfriend

Author Kasie West
Format e-book

Print Length 352 pages
Publisher HarperTeen
Published May 5, 1015

When Gia Montgomery's boyfriend, Bradley, dumps her in the parking lot of her high school prom, she has to think fast. After all, she'd been telling her friends about him for months now. This was supposed to be the night she proved he existed. So when she sees a cute guy waiting to pick up his sister, she enlists his help. The task is simple: be her fill-in boyfriend— two hours, zero commitment, a few white lies. After that, she can win back the real Bradley.

The problem is that days after prom, it's not the real Bradley she's thinking about, but the stand-in. The one whose name she doesn't even know. But tracking him down doesn't mean they're done faking a relationship. Gia owes him a favor and his sister intends to see that he collects: his ex-girlfriend's graduation party — three hours, zero commitment, a few white lies.

Just when Gia begins to wonder if she could turn her fake boyfriend into a real one, Bradley comes waltzing back into her life, exposing her lie, and threatening to destroy her friendships and her new-found relationship.

My Opinion

Gia is a senior in high school about to go to prom when her college age boyfriend dumps her in the parking lot of all places. Right before they make their grand entrance. Well, she can’t go to prom without a date- so she finds some guy to pretend to be her boyfriend. One lie, leads to another and then another until she is unsure of what is a lie and what is the truth. At least when it comes to matters of the heart that is.

Gia is a very relatable main character. Everyone wants to be liked and she does try hard to be likable to her friends. But the reality is that by trying hard to be likeable, she has been hiding her true self for years. It’s a learned behavior for her- one she picked up from her parents- one she didn’t even recognize. What I adore about her is she owns up to her mistakes- accepts them and tries to makes amends.

Hayden is a great fill-in boyfriend. He would make a great real boyfriend except he comes with baggage. If Gia decides it is him that she wants she will have to understand where he is coming from. He has been burned in the past and it hurts.

Neither one of these people have great taste in friends. Some are okay but others are well- you have to read the book. Gia’s family is messed up. Her parents are “yes” parents. My children can do no wrong parents. To me this does the children a disservice- in our society there are a lot of parents like this though.

The Fill-In Boyfriend is a book to get excited about. With relatable characters- real life problems and real life consequences. A great read that may just cause you to pause and reflect on your life.

My Rating 5 out of 5 stars

"It is a proud privilege to be a soldier." —George S. Patton Jr.
"We sleep safely at night because rough men stand ready to visit violence on those who would harm us." —Winston Churchill

My Opinion

This book includes eight short stories. I thought for the review I will give a few words on each of the stories.

Hot As Hell by Julie Ann Walker

Harper is a secretary to the US Ambassador in Pakistan. For months they were expecting an attack and none came- to the Seal team that was originally protecting them gets called away on another mission. While they are gone the embassy gets attacked. Will Michael and his team get to her in time?

I loved Harper- she is a no nonsense kinda gal in the middle of a huge crisis. Michael is a sweetheart who will stop at nothing to save her. That is main objective at the moment, followed closely by the need to define their relationship. He is a man who knows what he wants and he is not afraid to grab for it.

This story gets 5 out of 5 stars. I can definitely say I will be looking for more stories in this series.

In Plain Sight by Catherine Mann

Stacy is being stalked by her ex-hubby Jared. A stalker who is seriously escalating into dangerous territory. The only problem is that no one believes her except that is for the guy who answered her 911 phone call-Gavin. Just so happens Gavin is her first love. The boy who walked away from their love to join the military. Gavin was medically discharged and is coming to terms with his new disability. Being disabled is not going to stop him from stopping Jared though.

Stacy and Gavin just didn’t do it for me. I felt that their chemistry wasn’t there. Also their reconnect happens instantly which after ten years wouldn’t fly in my world.

This story gets 3 out of 5 stars.

Torn by Kate SeRine

Sadie and Joe grew up together- the best of friends. Both wanting more but not acting on it. Joe joins the military and Sadie stays behind. Joe gets hurts and returns to their home town, where Sadie is a teacher. Someone is stalking Sadie, Joe doesn’t know but he is about to find out.

I puffy heart love Sadie. She is strong, she is independent and most of all she is understanding. She knows her bestie and is there for him always. Joe knows he loves Sadie but he doesn’t feel like he deserves her, and to be honest maybe he didn’t. At least not until she was in danger- that is when he man’s up and is determine to catch the gal. Seriously, moments with Joe can be a swoonfeast.

This story gets 5 out of 5 stars. I am waiting impatiently for the next Kate SeRine book to release- I mean it has seriously been too long!

War Games by Lea Griffin

Rook is the only living member of a Delta Force Team, he is also in Ft. Leavenworth. Vivi is just the gal to get him out of there- after all she did promise her brother on his death bed. All she has to do is stage a prison break, get Rook and help him clear his name. Plus, not get caught. No biggie- especially for Vivi she can hack into any system. Clearing his name though- that might be a bit hard.

Vivi is another gal that totally floated my boat. Loyalty to her brother outweighs her fears and she will do what is asked of her. Her blind trust in the character of Rook is also pretty amazing, especially since he doesn’t trust himself. Rook knows he was framed but where does Vivi fit in? Can he trust her?

This story gets 5 out of 5 stars. I want to read more by this author.

Beauty and the Marine by Tina Wainscott

Kristy is a model being stalked- so much so she has been in hiding for two years. Her security team has decided to smoke the stalker out. They do this with a fake reality tv show on a ranch ran by a guy named Griff. Griff is a military man in hiding because of survivor guilt and scars- visible scars.

I did not connect with the characters in this one.

This story gets 2 out of 5 stars.

NSDQ 325 by M.I. Buchman

US Army Captain Lois Lang is a pilot or was until she lost a leg putting the chopper down. When she realized that it was either the leg or her people she didn’t hesitate. Now she has a prosthetic and is trying to get her life back. She can’t go back into the chopper so there is the fear that the review board will be dismissing her soon. Kendall Clark is a Black Hawk specialist that has been her friend and colleague for years. He has also been carrying a torch for her since forever.

I loved Lois- she is down to earth, she is honest and above all she is real. Kendall is the perfect guy for her- observant, calculating and with the right amount of confidence in his decisions. Some great moments in this one, also some teary moments in this one.

This tale got 4 out of 5 stars.

SEALed with Passion by Anne Elizabeth

Jonah is a Navy Seal on a mission- to help his best friend finish his house. His house is part of the Wounded Warrior Project- Kevin lost the use of his legs while he was serving in the military. He already knows that Alisha will be there after all she is Julie’s bestie. Jonah and Alisha met at Kevin and Julie’s wedding but have not spoken since that incredible night.

I liked Jonah- he is honorable, loyal and really just a nice guy. Alisha is well she is bossy, a know –it-all and pretty much likes things in order. They would fit together perfectly, except for the aftermath of that night they had together. Loved that this one gave us insight into Jonah’s head and why he did what he did.

3 out of 5 stars for this one.

Home Fire Inferno by Suzanne Brockmann

Okay so the Home Fire Inferno was not what I was expecting. Instead of a sweet romance I got a tale of how a Navy Seal team is really a family. What a tale this was. Two of the Seal’s partners are stranded in the desert and one goes into labor. Since the Team is go ready she doesn’t want her hubby to know. So they end up calling his Senior Officer. Who calls the members of the team that are back home to go and find them. Holy cowziers~ y’all this one made cry and laugh and yeah it was pretty awesome.

My Rating 5 stars out of 5

As a rule I tend to avoid books with multiple authors and stories. Mostly, because I end up paying for a book that has one or two stories that I like and the rest make me feel like it was a waste of my time. That is so not true in this case. Some of these tales are amazing- they will make you laugh and make you cry. There were three that I didn’t care for but other people loved them. Give this book a try- it’s for a good cause and well the stories are entertaining.
