I have no idea.................
I have no idea who this beautiful soul is, lol but the minute I saw him I fell head over heels. And though no one reads any of my crap my odds of finding out who he is is next to nil. But I wanted to throw it out there anyway. Who ever you are. Beautiful man lol.
Ok so I skipped a few...........and then some.
I've read about a few books since I last posted. I've been dealing with allergies, taxes, cleaning and organizing and getting my business in order so I can start promoting again. IF that bothers you well eat me lol. No one is really reading this shit anyway. So I'll keep my reviews short, if I can remember what the hell I read to begin with.
First up is Maya Banks, the Sweet Series. I loved this series from the get go. Iti's like taking a peek into peoples lives. This is Cole's book...and who knew Cole had such a sexy, sinful, naughty side to him! Don't waste your time with the Fifty Shades Series, read this one instead.
Cole finally hooks up with his former college sweetheart Ren, only to learn she belongs to another. Literally lol. And Cole being Cole will do whatever he has to to win her back. And he fucking better.
This is my fave one of the series. The thought of being in a poly amorous relationship with two men just gives me the tingles from head to toe. And why shouldn't it? Two men to take care of me, make me feel safe and loved and cater to my every sexual need?? The mere idea alone could make me pass out lol.
Tiger by Laurann Dohrner.
I got into this series on a whim. I was looking at ebooks and found her book Brawn....ok actually I found the cover of the book lol. The dude on the cover was a complete stud, even if he didn't have a head. I read the trail, downloaded the book (it was the 5th in the New Species Series) and I was off and running. I loved the characters. They are a group of people who were created by a pharmaceutical company and had their DNA combined with Feline, Canine or Primate DNA. So they are people, with a twist, lol. I liked the simplicity and the ferocity of the characters and how the author chose to write the characters. How the characters are rescued and freed from their torturous captors and then how they learn to live as free people. A lot of the dialogue had me laughing. The characters simplicity in understanding and speech made them all very endearing to me. I think my fave book in the series is Valient....but alas I have read them all to date. It's a fun read.....different that the Lora Leigh Series and much more light hearted I think.
Lori Foster, A Pefect Storm
Again, another series I got into merely by chance. I was at the store, needed something to read......voila, involved in another series lol.
This is Arizona Storms Story. She survived being kidnapped, sold into slavery by trafficers and nearly killed when thrown off a bridge. Enter hot guy on the cover who's name escapes me for the moment lol. Does it really matter anyway? In the story, the guy is a typical alpha male dominant. The guy I love to love but in reality would have no idea what to do with because he would probably drive me utterly insane! But if its the guy on the cover? Sanity is highly overrated anyway.
Read the book, don't read the book, it's entirely up to you. I enjoyed it and I look forward to the next one. If I sit here and tell you about it, you won't really have a reason to read it now will you?

Lover Reborn, JR Ward
In this 10th official installment in the Black Dagger Brotherhood series (not counting the novellas Father Mine or Story of Son) We find Tohrment a shell of the former brother he once was. After the death of his Shellan, Wellesandra (Wellsie) and their as yet unborn son, Tohr is trying to exist, trying to live.....trying. But as a bonded male, losing your mate is akin to losing your life, so, why continue?
Tohr is pulled back and returned to the Brotherhood by the Angel Lassiter, a guttermouth, hard partying Maury Povich watching Angel as it were. But Tohr hasn't really moved on. He's stuck and full of revenge over the death of his mate.
Enter No'One. She is the biological mother of Xhexania. No'One and Tohr had a past. After She was raped and held captive by an unknown sympath, Tohr and Darius nurse her to health and see her through her pregnancy. To which she then commits suicide and leaves Tohr to bury her in the end and to find a home for the orphaned Xhex. Reunited again by a miracle of the Scribe Virgin, these two damaged and severely fucked up people take a comfort of sorts with each other. Over time growing fond of each other, but not really letting go of their pasts and letting the other one in all the way. Which is the problem. If they don't they will never be able to save themselves.
I wait all year for the next installment of this series. On pins and needles, kneeling on glass. This is one storyline I wish the characters were real. However I am glad they are not due to some of the untold horrors the characters all suffer. It is hard not to fall in love with the characters though. They become a part of you, and you find yourself hoping for their happiness.
JR Ward doesn't know how many books in this series she will write. She has been noted with saying something along the lines of she will just keep writing them until she doesn't. All of the characters are colorful and very complex. Each with his own environment. And all of them and brilliantly interwoven into a bigger picture of war, peace, love, accomplishment etc.
It didn't take me long to read this book. Though it has many chapters, they are short and the book is a pretty easy read. This story flowed very well, unlike all the hard edged flashbacks and forwards that John Matthew's book had previously. I loved Tohr, I hated him, I felt bad for him, I wanted to scream and yell at him and at one point I wanted to punch him. And he would have taken it. Because he is a male of worth. Which is a rare find today, even in the human world. Which is why I have probably fallen head over heels in love with the males in this series. They are my new bar, my new standard....and nothing less will do.
There is a huge twist at the end. I'm not giving it away. I'm kind of surprised I didn't see it coming but all I can say is HOLY SHITE! I was totally spun.
If you haven't read the books, buy them. Like now. Read them. Immediately. And I hope you enjoy them and fall in love with them like I have.
Until next spring my Brothers, when we finally get to read Qhuinn & Blay's story. ....... I have a feeling I know a bit about how that one is going to go and I am already excited as all hell to read it!!!
