Immortal Enemies to Fated Lovers

The Warlord Wants Forever by Kresley Cole

Wicked Deeds on a Winter's Night by Kresley Cole

by Leave a Comment

I’m still working my way through Kresley Cole’s Immortals After Dark series. I’ve read her several of her books for previous Cannonball Read challenges. The author finds a way to pair up the most interesting supernatural creatures. Many of her books deal with fated mates, but often the alpha male attempts to use fate as an excuse to skip courtship. The female rarely finds this acceptable and a sexy and dangerous chase typically ensues. For CBR11, I decided to start at the very beginning with […]

Love triangles, magic, and murder

Grave Visions by Kalayna Price

Grave Ransom by Kalayna Price

by 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

by 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

by 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

by 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 […]

Even worse now than it was when it was first published

Iced (Fever #6) by Karen Marie Moning

by 3 Comments

Re-Read – August 2019: I first read and reviewed this 6 years ago and didn’t really enjoy it. But this summer, I wanted to revisit all of the Fever books, having been a big fan of the initial run of 5 in the series. And although my general feeling going into Iced was that this and the follow-up Burned were the weakest among them, I was actually a little cautiously optimistic that I might enjoy them more this time. A big part of that comes […]
