BLURB

Everyone expects the fairy tale from me.

Because on the outside, I look like I live in a fantasy.

I'm a hopeless romantic.

I fall in and out of love.

I change careers, zip codes and hair colors on a whim.

I'm a free spirit without a care in the world.

I'm the one that loves everyone and hates no one.



But I've got a secret...



I'm not a free spirit.

Not really.

I'm not free at all.

My life is only designed to look chaotically peaceful.

I'm only designed to look like that.

Peace is lost to me.

Because I'm trying to escape something.

Trying to escape him.

My life isn't a fairy tale.

It's time the world saw that.

It's really hard to sum this book up, it touched on subjects that I've started to recently research and follow. One thing this book will definitely do and that'll get you thinking. 

Polly and Heath's story is love and life in a book and neither are easy. Both characters are infuriating at points I wanted to shake some sense into both of them. This is a story that's as real and raw as it gets, they don't half put the reader through the wringer emotionally. 

Is life perfect - no
Is life hard- yes
Is any love perfect - no
Is love worth the pain- yes

Another heart wrenching fantastically written story.

Dear God, this book is painful! It is not an exaggeration when the author says that it is not a fairytale. It isn't a bait and switch. It is not a tease. It is an utter truth. This book is the Grimm fairytale variety. It's harsh. It's ugly. It's real. It hurts like a mothertrucker!

I am a hopeless romantic. I see the happily ever after in everything. I hope against hope. I wish for magic and miracles. I know the hero is going to ride in and save the day...in my books. Not in this one. Not in Polly's world.

Polly is ever the optimist. She is everything I wish to be and a side of crazy new age. She makes my wishful, hope-infused outlook seem like a b rated horror movie. She is literal sunshine and rainbows. But she's also a fraud and her own worst enemy.

So I hated this book. Not the writing. Not the characters -even when I wanted to shake them. I hurt physically from the loss of hope. I hated knowing that no matter how much I wanted to turn the page and see unicorns, it wasn't happening. I hated knowing that the knights in shining armor occasionally need time to put it on. I hated knowing the author spared no realism. The author made sure you knew exactly how bad life can be. I hated knowing it would get better but not at magical HEA speeds. I hated it. Which in a crazy way is why this book despite my hating it is so damn good. I

Yes, it's definitely worth the hurt and the soul-consuming pain.

#NewRelease #Reviews THE SOMBER CALL by Michelle Dare @agarcia6510 @michelle_dare


Title: The Somber Call
Author: Michelle Dare
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance
Cover Designer: Regina Wamba at Mae I Design
Publication Date: November 30th, 2018


Blurb:

A tragic loss. A broken pack. A lone wolf.
The pack war was drawing closer, and Ariane found herself at a crossroad amid the chaos that was her life.
Which road should she follow? One gave her a chance at normalcy, while the other threw her deeper into turmoil.
She had new powers, a shifter for a boyfriend, and blood on her hands. There was also the lone wolf who had been cast out and sought solace with Ari as he fought to return home.
This wasn’t how she thought her life would play out. Nevertheless, a decision had to be made. And in the middle of it was Orion, wondering which road Ari would follow.

Squeeeeeeee!!! Squee! Squeeeeeeeeee!
No, those aren't mouse squeaks. Those are straight up squeaks of delight, frustration, and righteous indignation. Squeaks of love, happiness, and hope. 

This series is going to kick ass while taking names. 

The Somber Call is full of feels, angst, and everything a bookworm needs for their happy place. Struggles with relationships, fear of making a negative impsct, and fear of not being enough. Ari struggles with the typical insecurities we all face but in a much grander level. 

It is imperative you read this series in order. There is no way to grasp what is happening otherwise. Heed The Somber Call. Realize that nothing will ever be the same and embrace that which you know is right...

We pick up the story where we left them in book one which you really need to read first. This series has reawakened my love for every thing paranormal thank you Michelle. 

I love everything about these books, the covers the story the characters and most of all the writing because it's phenomonal. Ari has had so much to deal with and the action doesn't let up in at all. She is faced with tough decisions with more surprises revealed. Orion is my man but oh did Ford make me giggle. 

I can't wait to get my hands on book three.

#Tour #Reviews GOOD GONE BAD by Giana Darling @EJBookPromos @GianaDarling


Title: Good Gone Bad
Series: The Fallen Men Series #3
Author: Giana Darling
Genre: Erotic Romance
Release Date: November 23, 2018




They say one action doesn’t define you.  I killed a man. Stabbed him in the neck and licked the blood off my lips after I did it. 
Still, one action doesn’t define you. 
I could have called anyone. My father, the Prez of The Fallen MC, our family lawyer, my best friend, Lila, or my brother, King. 
I didn’t. 
Instead, I called Lionel Danner, the police officer renowned for taking down the Nightstalkers MC. The man who had been my father’s arch nemesis for decades. The man who hated everything I stood for. A man who had disappeared from my life without explanation three years ago. 
I called him. 
And maybe one action doesn’t define you, but killing a bad man and calling in the good changed my life and it sure as hell changed his. 

The third book in the Fallen Men Series. A standalone featuring Harleigh Rose and Officer Lionel Danner.







My love for the men and the women in this series is huge and just grows with each new book. 

The story I've been waiting on Danner and Harleigh Rose is here. All the teasers I've read could never have prepared me for these two characters. Complex doesn't begin to describe them or the soul-deep connection they have.

I feel like I should apologise to HR as I totally misjudged her. The spoiled princess I imagined never appeared, she is loyal selfless loving sexy a little minx and some may say stupid but I say brave. Some readers will claim Danner but I claim Harleigh she's my girl. Lion aka Danner is the man, I hoped he'd be, he's tough and opinionated with a dangerous side and a dirty mouth which I loved. 

The story as a whole has a fast pace to it even though we dip into the past it never detracts from where the author wants to take us. We, of course, see King and Zeus but this is very much Rosie and Lion's book and I loved it.

I was a Darling virgin when I started this book but midway through I bought books 1 and 2 of the series.

Good Gone Bad is a crazy journey with the perfect amount of chaos, sexy, and delicious kink. It also has a hero that is oh so easy to fall for especially when he uses that low, extra bossy voice. It's not just the good cop that this at your heart strings. No, the rebel Rise is as feisty and lovable as can be. It's probably easier to love her since we got to witness her growing up but I have always love strong feisty heroines so it was easy for me to see the beauty in the thorns. 

And what a beauty she is! Their relationship seems to poison them but it's not all it seems. The distance, the inability to be is poisoning them slowly but surely. If they don't get killed before that! You never can be too sure with Harleigh Rose.
