Release Blitz: Stolen by Bailie Hantam



Title: Stolen: A World Of Rebellion Prequel 
Author: Bailie Hantam 
Genre: Paranormal Romance 










As a magical being known for his sexual prowess, Josh Salinger has no problem with women. It’s a useful weapon for a cat-burglar who specialises in gaining access to the most secure places in the city. The Lockhart Mansion is no different. Hidden in one of the most prestigious homes in Cape Town is the key to finding a magical species that’s been lost for decades. The witches are the biggest piece in the arsenal in the fight against evil, and Josh is tasked with the first step in finding them. It’s a simple job. Until he meets Clara, the youngest of the Lockhart clan.


Clara Lockhart has been hiding who she is her entire life. As a harpy, her family has only one job in the magical world: Make trouble, cause distractions. Her volatile temper and jealous streak are as much a part of her powers as her ability to detect undercurrents. The wings and claws are just an added bonus when things get out of control. She has worked hard to keep that part of herself hidden. Avoiding situations that bring out her harpie tendencies. Which probably explains why she’s still a virgin. She’s quite happy to live a life of spinsterhood, as long as she can stay away from her gorgeous new boss, Josh.










Bailie Hantam lives in Johannesburg, South Africa. She’s been writing stories her whole life. Her love for the romance genre started back in her teen years, when she devoured everything ending with a Happily Ever After. She put off writing for nearly two decades while she concentrated on raising her daughter and helping with her husband’s business. Now, with an empty nest, and a little more free time, she is finally writing and giving those characters in her head their own Happily Ever After.






Review: Void by Raven Kennedy & Coralee June

Length:382 pages

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis

I was born of nothing.

I’m a Void, a rare supernatural capable of absorbing powers at the brush of my skin.

Feared. Hated. Untouchable.

Thibault Academy is full of supernaturals that want me dead, and the most powerful of them, the Paragons, will stop at nothing to ensure I go back to the hell I came from. They’re cruel, heartless, and have created an unlikely alliance to take me down.

If I want to learn how to control the nothingness, I’ll have to survive them.

I was born of the void, but I’ll die from the power.

This is a reverse harem bully romance.

My Thoughts 💭

This was a really good paranormal bully romance. Devicka is a powerful void and is a pariah in supe society because everyone believes she’ll just take their power. Render, Gritt, Quade and Hyde are a little prejudice at first but as they get to know her their view of her changes. The guys are jerks at first but they didn’t take it too far. I enjoyed how each of them became protective of her and her of them. This was an enjoyable read!

SYNOPSIS

When his family is threatened, a shifter must choose between high school and a life of crime.

For the past six hundred years the Byrd family members have been shifters with avian powers. Seventeen-year-old Rolf is the only Byrd who transforms into a dog. Rolf knows that when his mom looks at him, all she sees is a mutant, but Rolf has plans for his future that go beyond shifting.

Rolf is using senior year to shoot Desperate Dawn, a film that he hopes will win him a prestigious scholarship to the University of Southern California. If Rolf can convince Summer Hathaway to be his leading lady, he’ll be golden. But when Rolf finds twenty dead ravens on his porch, shifter problems show up at his door.

Snake bites, wild coyotes, and drive-by shootings–Rolf’s neighborhood suddenly becomes a deadly place to be. Summer’s douchebag boyfriend makes it worse, especially when he attacks Rolf’s sister. Rolf will do anything to protect the people he loves, even if it means giving up on his dreams. Hopefully, he won’t have to.

Shoot the film. Get the girl. Save his family. It’s a good thing that Rolf can fight like a dog.

EXCLUSIVE RELEASE EXCERPT

Shifting was in my blood. My father was a shifter, just like his father before him. They were bird shifters, but I was canine. I could transform into any dog I wanted—almost any dog, that is. I’d never mastered a large breed like a St. Bernard or Great Dane. Granddad thought that was because as a human, I was five feet, five inches—the shortest guy in my high school. But I didn’t need to become a big animal to protect my sister.

Hounds were my favorite breeds to shift into because they allowed me to look for things that other people couldn’t see. My nose smashed against the sidewalk. Something about Dory’s shoes smelled delicious. I sniffed around the bottom of her sandals and discovered a tiny morsel of dried-up pizza.

“You don’t need to be a drug-sniffing beagle.” Dory nudged me away with her toe. “Lenox doesn’t do shit like that. Pick something else that won’t be so obvious.”

I closed my eyes, took a deep whiff of the night air, and shifted into something smaller.

“A pocket beagle?” Dory crossed her arms. “The deal’s off. Find yourself a new wardrobe assistant because I’d rather miss the party then show up with—”

“Hey, Dory,” said a friendly voice. “Cute dog.”

A slim brunette in a skirt and cowboy boots walked up to us. It was Rain Hathaway, who had the good fortune to be the younger sister of Summer Hathaway, the girl I was going to marry.

“Hi, Rain.” Dory plastered a smile on her face and fiddled with the tassel on her purse. “Is that your Lexus?”

“I wish. It’s my mom’s. I’m staying at her house this weekend.” Rain smelled like Tide Pods and soy sauce. She bent down on the pavement. “Is it okay if I pet your dog?”

“Sure,” Dory said in a higher-than-normal voice.

“What a cutie.” Rain held her hand up to my nose so I could sniff it. Now that she was closer, I smelled other things on her too. She’d eaten tuna rolls for dinner, followed by a Dr. Pepper. Her mom’s Lexus was relatively new and still off-gassing chemicals.

I nuzzled Rain’s hand and sniffed deeper. There was a dog at her house, a female Shih Tzu. As Rain ran her hand down my back, I closed my eyes, enjoying the massage. My tail wagged. I couldn’t help it. She scratched me behind the ears and I groaned. I looked up at Rain with my puppy-dog eyes, and she giggled.

“Your dog is adorable,” she said. “I’ve never seen a beagle so small before. What’s his name?”

“Trouble.” Dory glared down at me. “His name is Trouble because he is a pain in the ass.”

Review: Silent Lucidity by Tiffany Roberts

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Length: 353 pages

Source: Kindle Unlimited

Synopsis

She didn’t ask to be abducted.

She didn’t ask to be torn away from her simple, happy life on Earth.

She didn’t ask to become a pet to a powerful alien merchant.

Abella hasn’t allowed four years of slavery to break her spirit, but after numerous failed escape attempts, the chances of making it home to her family seem bleak. That is until she shares a passionate, forbidden dance with a silent stranger. His piercing silvery eyes haunt her with a taste of hope.

Intense, mysterious, and deadly, Tenthil may be the key to Abella’s freedom. But as she finds herself increasingly drawn to him, she realizes the truth—Tenthil has no intention of taking her home.

Will he be her salvation, or will she trade one master for another?

—-

**Warning: This book contains sexual content and violence.**

My Thoughts 💭

I loved this book! Tenthil is an assassin on a mission and screws up when he lays eyes on Abella. He becomes obsessed and comes up with a plan to have her. Abella was stolen from her home and was seen as nothing but a pet. When Tenthil rescues her she thinks he’s going to take her to the human embassy but he has other plans for his mate. This was an enjoyable read. I loved the chemistry and banter between Abella and Tenthil.

Release Blitz/ARC Review: Parallel by Elizabeth O’Roark!

Title: Parallel
Series: Parallel Duet #1
Author: Elizabeth O’Roark
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Release Date: June 13, 2019
Blurb
Time is a cruel thief…unless you can steal it
back.

As a neurologist, Nick Reilly believes
everything can be explained by science.

But he can’t explain her—Quinn Stewart,
an irresistible patient who knows things about him she shouldn’t. And insists
that at some point, she was his wife. 

Something else he can’t explain: he remembers
her too.

Quinn wakes each morning remembering new
details of the life they shared. She’s desperate for the dreams to stop. With
each one, she finds herself craving what she had with Nick more than the
life—and the fiancé—she already has.

Nick and Quinn share an attraction neither can
deny, but one that might destroy everything.

Just like it did before.

My Thoughts 💭

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I liked this book. I loved Quinn and Nick! It was a little mysterious since I was a little lost in the beginning but it was also very interesting! The story slowly unfolds and I just couldn’t stop reading! If you enjoy paranormal romances with some mystery I definitely recommend!

Excerpt
We walk into the house and I watch her face,
hoping,
praying, for a reaction. Some memory that will provide an answer
we need.

Her mouth curves downward. “It’s just like
walking into the home of your favorite childhood friend as an adult. Familiar,
but meaningless. Why the hell did I ever think seeing it might heal a brain
tumor? I was expecting miracles.”

I return and find my hands wrapping around her
arms, forcing her to meet my eye. “Who says it would have to be a miracle?” I
ask. “We can’t explain
anything that’s happening. But there was a time
when people couldn’t explain the change in seasons, or sunlight, or gravity. It
doesn’t mean there wasn’t an explanation. It just meant it hadn’t been
discovered. Why should this be any different?”

She looks away, pressing her lips together.
“But the tumor—you don’t actually believe we can stop it.”

I tip her chin up, feeling a little desperate.
She can’t start losing hope now. I need her to keep fighting until we find a
solution. “Do I think it’s unlikely this can fix the tumor? Yeah. But your tumor
is also unlike anything I’ve ever seen. And how could I say it was impossible
anyway? Every day, you and I are witnessing the impossible. We’re having the
same dreams, for God’s sake. You know things you couldn’t possibly know, and
from the moment I met you, it felt like you were…”

“It felt like I was what?”

“Mine,” I reply.

The awkwardness of that word washes over us
both. I’ve never called anyone
mine in my life, and she is with someone
else. But I also know what I said was right. She is meant to be mine, and
somehow today I need to convince her of that.

Trayis by Laurann Dohner review!

Length:262 pages

Rating:⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Source: Purchased

Synopsis

Growing up mostly human in a Lycan pack has been hard for Shay. Shunned and distrusted by most, she wouldn’t have survived without the support of her foster family and alpha. She’s had a longtime secret crush on Trayis, her alpha’s VampLycan half-brother. Shay thinks he’s hot and finds the courage to approach Trayis during one of his infrequent visits. She’s hoping for just one night of ecstasy before she spends her life alone, unwanted.

Trayis is stunned when he realizes the sweet, timid Shay is interested in bedding him. He’s also furious when some pack women attempt to humiliate her in front of him. He’s more than happy to pick her over one of them. She might not be his type but it’s just sex. He’s up for that. What he doesn’t plan on is how she makes him feel.

So much for a simple vacation and a one-night stand.

My Thoughts 💭

I liked this book. Shay can’t shift so some of the pack members treat her like she’s less. Her bestie and her make a pact to go after the ones they want and it leads her to Trayis. Trayis is so protective and sweet with Shay. I loved their chemistry. Their story was sweet with a little drama.

Blog Tour: The Demon Maker By Jonathon McElhaney & Virginia Johnson


Title: The Demon Maker 
Authors: Jonathon McElhaney & Virginia Johnson 
Genre: Paranormal Romance 




When Alex moved to the big city, she was expecting a lot of things that she couldn’t find in the country: big lights, concerts, maybe a little dancing, a few cute boys, and her best friend Holly. What she got was something much bigger, as she meets an alluring and mysterious stranger at a bar who pulls her into a world much bigger than even New York City. 
She is now stuck in a fight for the fate of the universe and she could be the deciding factor. 

He is The Demon Maker, a pivotal soldier in this ancient war, a man with a constantly changing face who might be good and might be evil. 

A Demon Maker. A country girl. An ancient battle between good and evil.
When the battle lines are drawn, Alex and The Demon Maker must be on the same side of fate or the universe will be doomed to an eternity of darkness and evil. The question is, who is truly evil and where is the demonic line drawn?



Jonathon Mcelhaney is a US Army veteran, having served in the logistics division during the Afghanistan campaign. He is the author of the dark fantasy novel, THE SET STEALER, published by New Traditions Publishing and three amazing self-published short stories. He is a loving husband to his beautiful wife and two amazing kids.


A love for reading and writing is a new concept for Virginia.
Before the Twilight rave and a need to know the ending after Eclipse was released in theatres, Virginia preferred to watch the movie or convince a friend to read the book for her.

Needing to know the story of a random homeless man that she encountered on a freeway exit ramp, was the only reason she began writing in the first place.
Soulless Nights spawned from the unknown story and a dare from her friends.

She has had the pleasure of working with some of her favorite authors.
Street teams and beta reading were what led her to the world of writing.

She has released Soulless Nights, Vindicate, Expiate, Cessation, Always Never, Secondary Silence, Secondary Disaster, The Xmas Effect, The Blood of Abigail, Correcting Code 1.1, and the Bad Words Made Funny Series!

She recently released Night Tales Vol 1. Which consists of 3 short stories featured in anthologies.

She also has co-written 3 books: Seraphines (Julia Clare) , Bound by an Echo (Julia Clare) & Kepler: Humanity’s Ark ( Kyle Perkins )

She is currently working on Correcting Code novella’s

Synopsis

A DEMON WITH FIRE IN HIS BLOOD…

Groomed to slaughter, Morthanion spent millennia battling the forces of light, claiming countless lives. Captured and banished to a remote island by the Mage Council, his fury knows no bounds – until he meets her. Mesmerized by her voice and beauty, he is powerless.

A WOMAN HE COULDN’T RESIST…

Aria knows survival means avoiding the other islanders at all costs. Yet when she encounters the dangerous, persistent Morthanion, it’s clear all the rules have changed. But can she forgive him the wrongs he’d done and grant him her trust…and love?

AN ISLAND MADE PRISON FOR THE UNFORGIVEN…

Stripped of magic, Morthanion understands that savagery is necessary to survive. When Aria’s true nature is revealed, the other inmates will stop at nothing to have her – and the demon would fight the entire world to keep her safe.

My Thoughts 💭

I loved this book! Morthanion is a demon who has been stripped of his powers and banished to a island for criminals. While getting familiar with his surroundings he hears the beautiful Aria sing and feels he must have her. Aria escapes him and tricks him and he’s totally obsessed. He realizes she’s his mate and her running around unclaimed makes him crazy. I loved how they were together. This book absolutely kept my interest! I definitely recommend this if you love a demon trying to be nice and very possessive of his mate.

Synopsis

Sing, gypsies, sing of your lies…

That old song plays in my head, as the world turns around me faster than it has ever turned.

Monsters and mayhem. That’s become my life.

Fear and apprehension. That’s become the normal for those around me.

Dread and distraction. That’s what has interrupted my own personal romance story with my mon-star quad.

Vengeance and retribution. That was the theme of the monster world long before I landed in it, and it’s starting to heat up more than ever.

Jabs from a complicated, ancient past keep coming so much and so quickly that I’ve grown desensitized to them. Which is a good thing, since I’m about to need a thick skin.

I guess it’s time to see if I can handle being in the middle, because that’s where I’m about to put myself. My mother always did accuse me of being a masochist. I’m starting to think she must be right.

Either they love me, or they love her.

I suppose it’s time to find out who wins. I don’t fight pretty, and I’m not that great at smack talk.

It’s not that they’re not worth fighting for. I just don’t want to have to fight for them. Not when when I’m fighting bigger battles already. Either we’re in this together, or I’m on my own. That’s for them to decide on their own.

Let the games begin.

My Thoughts 💭

I love Violet and her monsters! Violet may seem absolutely naive but she’s kind of diabolical. She’s making the cold hearted take note of the wrong that was done to the simpletons. She just wants everyone to care. She succeeded in making her monsters care and I loved every minute of it. I can’t wait for the next book!
