Product DetailsBOOK DESCRIPTION

PUBLICATION DATE: OCTOBER 1, 2013

Griffin Cadogan is surprised when Avani Monroe, the sworn enemy of his dragon family, walks into his gym. With his mating phase approaching, the dragon shifter wonders why she risks coming into enemy territory. Yet the dark-eyed temptress shocks him even more with an outrageous demand: She wants him to help her have a baby.
After her mother’s dragon line was annihilated by the Knights, Avani vows to continue her unique dragon breed-and the registries indicate that Griffin is the best candidate. Determined to mate, Avani plans to use her seductive beauty and powerful scent to entice Griffin. The big, strong Welsh man will make for a fitting partner . . . if he doesn’t kill her first.
When they spar over the terms of her proposal, Griffin and Avani can’t deny the intense, primal attraction they feel for each other. But as they become closer to creating a child, the lovers can hear danger encircle them as loud as the clapping of wings. The dragon slayers are coming . . .and they’re gunning for Griffin, Avani, and the entire dragon race.

I was given this book by Netgalley.com to read for an honest  review.
This is the first time I have read this author, Lolita Lopez.  The story line and characters were well-developed and well paced. The characters of Griffin and Avani were very likeable and strong characters. The story hooked me from the first page, and before I knew it the story was done. I wish the story was longer, I wanted more. The men in the story were absolutely yummy. I cannot wait until the next book in the series. I recommend this book to everyone. I give this book a 5/ 5 stars.
Here is the first book in the series. Product Details

BOOK REVIEW FOR “BLOODRING” BY FAITH HUNTER

Product Details

In a novel filled with lush imagery and exhilarating action, Faith Hunter creates a near-future world caught in the throes of an ambiguous apocalypse – where a woman with everything to hide finds her true destiny revealed. As humanity struggles with religious strife and seraphs and demons fight a never-ending battle, a new species has arisen. “Neomages” are human in appearance, but able to twist left-over creation energy to their will. A threat to both humans and seraphs, they are confined in luxurious Enclaves.Thorn St. Croix is no ordinary neomage. Nearly driven insane by her powers, she is smuggled out of an Enclave and now lives among humans, channeling her gift of stone-magery into jewelry making. But when Thaddeus Bartholomew, a dangerously attractive policeman, tells her that her ex-husband has been kidnapped, Thorn risks revealing her identity to find him. And for Thorn, the punishment for revelation is death.

BOOK DESCRIPTION COURTOSY OF AMAZON

This was the first series that I read of Faith Hunter and it is great. Her world building, and characters are just awesome. The character of Thorn was very well thought out. I enjoyed the story, because I have not at this time read anything like it. I recommend that you read this series. Due to her special abilities and unknown events,  Thorn had to leave her enclave and live in secret. If anyone found out that she was a rogue mage living amongst humans she would be killed, but when humans and mages are threatened. They have to fight together to rid the land of the threat or be totally erased from earth.

I loved the imagery in the book and the action. I gave it a 5/ 5 stars. here are the other books in the series.

BOOK REVIEW FOR “STORM BORN” BY RICHELLE MEAD

Product DetailsJust typical. No love life to speak of for months, then all at once, every horny creature in the Otherworld wants to get in your pants…Eugenie Markham is a powerful shamen who does a brisk trade banishing spirits and fey who cross into the mortal world. Mercenary, yes, but a girl’s got to eat. Her most recent case, however, is enough to ruin her appetite. Hired to find a teenager who has been taken to the Otherworld, Eugenie comes face to face with a startling prophecy – one that uncovers dark secrets about her past and claims that Eugenie’s first-born will threaten the future of the world as she knows it.Now Eugenie is a hot target for every ambitious demon and Otherworldy ne’er-do-well, and the ones who don’t want to knock her up want her dead. Eugenie handles a Glock as smoothly as she wields a wand, but she needs some formidable allies for a job like this. She finds them in Dorian, a seductive fairy king with a taste for bondage, and Kiyo, a gorgeous shape-shifter who redefines animal attraction. But with enemies growing bolder and time running out, Eugenie realizes that the greatest danger is yet to come, and it lies in the dark powers that are stirring to life within her.

BOOK DESCRIPTION COURTOSY OF AMAZON

I LOVED THIS BOOK. It is a very well written with the complexities and surprises.  The character of Eugenie is a kick butt  lead character. The great humor and dark worlds blends together to create a great story that will make you want more.  I gave this book a 5/ 5 stars.

I wish that she would write more in this series, but after Shadow Heir there has not been another. She has said their might be one later on down the road, but right now Shadow Heir is the last. 🙁
