Is this book perfect? No. Is it perfect for me right now? Yes. 5 stars. Do I have time to reread Blood Heir? I do not, but I probably will anyway. Kate and Curran, along with their 8 year old son, Conlan have moved to Wilmington, North Carolina to get away from their notoriety in Atlanta. They bought a Fort, which they are renovating to make it a homey sort of castle. They’ve got Conlan registered at an expensive school. They have a contractor. They […]

Sweep of the Heart by Ilona Andrews

Ilona Andrews is a highly bingeable author. I rather mindlessly requested the Sweep of the Heart audiobook from NetGalley not expecting to actually get it. I read the first book in the series a long time ago and have not read the other four books in the series. When I got the email telling me the audiobook was available to download, I took on the challenge of rereading Clean Sweep and then reading the other  books in 3 days so that I could listen to Sweep of the […]

It’s the biggest and most dangerous dating show in the universe!

This is not the place to start The Innkeeper Chronicles, as it’s the sixth installment overall (four full books and a novella come before it). This story has a LOT of callbacks to previous stories, so just start with Clean Sweep if you haven’t tried this yet. Innkeepers Dina DeMille and Sean Evans are still trying to recover from the last cosmic adventure that taxed them when they discover that Wilmos, the aging werewolf who’s pretty much Sean’s surrogate grandfather has been abducted. The traces […]

Sweep of the Heart (5 stars)- This was freaking fantastic. Dina and Sean definitely show us what two innkeepers can do when everything they have is on the line. I can’t wait for the next book! “Sweep of the Heart” follows the awesome events in the last book and novella. Dina and Sean have hit a nice rhythm until things take a turn and one of Sean’s werewolves friends gets kidnapped. The kidnappers have dropped him on a planet with a portal that will be […]

CBR14 Bingo: New (possibly my most anticipated new book of the year. Could also have been used for Series – last in a series, and Mind – a lot of minds are manipulated by various powers throughout) Spoiler warning! This book finishes off a bunch of storylines that started six books and a novella earlier in Burn for Me. It’s technically the third book in a trilogy, but to fully get the emotional heft of the story, you should have read the whole series up […]

This is basically non-stop action.

Magic Breaks (Kate Daniels, #7) by Ilona Andrews

To be honest, I thought the confrontation that happens in this book wouldn’t happen until the last—or maybe the penultimate—book in the series. So I was refreshingly surprised! For most of this book I had no idea where it was going, and then it went there! And then after that it shook some things up that I didn’t think would ever have the possibility to get shaken up, but I’m glad they did. All of that sounds very vague, but this is a review of […]
