Love triangles, magic, and murder

Grave Visions by Kalayna Price

Grave Ransom by Kalayna Price

December 30, 2019 by teresaelectro 3 Comments

It’s official. I’m totally hooked on Kalayna Price’s Alex Craft series. This was a given after I reviewed books 1-3. The follow-ups, Grave Visions, and Grave Ransom did not disappoint. Alex Craft is a grave witch. Her magic skill allows her to interact with the plane of the dead. She can see talk to ghosts and shades, which are manifestations of a dead person’s memory. Talking to the dead is quite handy if they’ve been murdered. Alex opens a private detective firm with her best friend […]

A tree nymph with a past finds love in a small town

Even Tree Nymphs Get the Blues by Molly Harper

December 29, 2019 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

This year, I’ve been living for the paranormal romance audiobooks. They make my commute bearable. Molly Harper’s Even Tree Nymphs Get the Blues is set in Mystic Bayou where supernatural beings coexist with humans. I have a soft spot for supernatural tales set in Louisiana after the Sookie Stackhouse series. The series was the gateway drug that got me reading again after a long absence. Since this is a stand-alone novella, I happily dove without reading the first two books. Said tree nymph is Ingrid […]

Supernatural warriors need love too

The Undoing by Shelly Laurenston

The Unyielding by Shelly Laurenston

December 29, 2019 by teresaelectro 1 Comment

The Unleashing is a raunchy paranormal romance with a healthy dash of Viking mythology and Malibu soap opera. It was such an easy read, I thought I’d give the full Call of Crows trilogy a whirl. All the books follow a different female warrior in Los Angeles who has been resurrected by the goddess Skuld. These fighters are called Crows. Their clan is notorious for being vicious due to their vengeful roots. The other clans and even most of the gods don’t like to mess […]

It ain’t easy loving an Archangel

Archangel's Kiss by Nalini Singh

Archangel's Consort by Nalini Singh

December 28, 2019 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

After the cliffhanger of Angels’ Blood, I simply had to read more Guild Hunter books this year! This series starts with a bang and doesn’t slow down. Nalini Singh develops the passionate romance between hunter Elena Deveraux and her archangel Raphael. Through Elena, we go deeper and deeper into the angelic world. Archangels are the ruling class with regular angels and vampires serving them. Humans know very little and live in awe or fear the archangels. SPOILERS AHEAD IF YOU HAVEN’T READ BOOK ONE Archangel’s […]

Sometimes your mom does know best

The Bride Test by Helen Hoang

December 23, 2019 by teresaelectro Leave a Comment

The Bride Test is the second romance from Helen Hoang. I had to figure out what all the buzz was about for myself and was not disappointed. I absolutely love the illustrated cover. Definitely don’t want this trend to go away. I haven’t gotten around to her previous book, The Kiss Quotient, but thankfully, this series can be read as stand-alone books. The characters simply inhabit the same universe. After a tragic loss, Khai Diep believes he can’t feel emotion because his grief didn’t follow […]

Soul Food, Murder, and an Author Mystery Unraveled

Murder with Fried Chicken and Waffles by A. L. Herbert

December 15, 2019 by teresaelectro 6 Comments

I picked up Murder with Fried Chicken and Waffles since it was a Mocha Girls Read book club pick. I LOVE COZY MYSTERIES! Whether it’s on Hallmark or the page, I’m usually interested in it. This series has a catchy title format using Murder with X FOOD. The author even includes several recipes as the book is set in a popular soul food restaurant in Prince George’s County, Maryland. I have family nearby, so I was doubly into the premise. The main character is Halia Watkins, […]
