This is the first book written by Shane North and he's off to a fantastic start.  What an engrossing story from the beginning to the end.  Be prepared for a thrilling ride and you'll hate for it to end.  I loved the beautiful Shannon (the main character) and what a special woman she turns out to be, and all the rest of the interesting and wonderful characters.  You have werewolves, vampires, warlocks, oh my!!  There's romance, action and magic, what more could you ask for?  Bravo Shane, I cannot wait for the next book and I highly recommend this one.

This book is a definite must read!! I could not put this book down once I started it!! Which is really bad...considering I have two kids and two dogs. When they dogs are both at my feet staring me down doing the potty dance in place...time to put the book down!!

The characters are a group of students who have special gifts. They must join their special gifts together to save the world against demons. The lead character, Sophie, has a very special gift. She is an empath. She can feel the emotions of everything around her and sense when danger is near. I love that she is such a strong young woman. The longer the story continues, she gets stronger and stronger. Samantha did a wonderful job of describing the characters, the scenery, and especially the demons! I love to feel like I am there watching the whole thing go down!

This book was amazing. If you love paranormal books with lots of action, this is your book! I can't wait for the next book to see where this goes. Samantha was flawless in her delivery of this story. I laughed, I cried, I hated, I got angry, and then I was satisfied.

4.5 stars!!!!

My Thoughts - 4 out of 5 Unicorns - I really liked it!!
***Received the ebook from St. Martins Press for an honest review

The cover is very, well yummy and great eye candy :)  Love it!!

I have a fondness for gargoyles because of my dad.  He used to call me and my sisters his gargoyles, and I loved Disneys show Gargoyles too!!  This is the 2nd book Ive read with Gargoyles in it, and I think I like them as much as my shifter and vamp books.

This book started a little slow for me, but this happens when you have a new world and characters to learn about.  Ella and Kees are awesome, and I think this series is going to be a fantastic one and will only get better with each book.

Ella is a strong woman who keeps everyone at arms length because of her past which you will have to read about because I refuse to ruin it for you.  Her life changes on the terrace of the museum she works for.  She meet Kees who turns her world upside down.  They cant explain that they are somehow connected.  This book has tons of action fighting the bad guys, magic, and some very steamy scenes as well.  I cant wait for the next book.

I recommend this book to all my fellow paranormal romance fans & of course all of you who already love Christine Warren as I do.

Awesome 5 star paranormal romance book. This was a book that I got on a free promo, and read when I was taking a wee break from my read and review list. Wow, am I glad I did. It's a great book. All the characters rock, and the action is great. The ending is absolutely, hands down, awesome! You'll love it. Yes, there are sex scenes, but there is also a great story there as well. I heartily recommend this book and this author.

This is the BEST paranormal romance book that I have ever read! I've read quite a few too and this is my favorite so far!
The author does a wonderful job of building the world and her characters. The story & plot are very intriguing and never gets boring. The romance is a slow build up. At first you don't know who she will end up with. I did feel a little sad for the two men that didn't end up with her. It's not really a love triangle book. The characters just get so close with their friendship that they think they could love the main heroine. I think they are lonely and just wanting someone to love. Hopefully they will end up with good women of their own in the next books!

The love scenes are very hot and well done. There isn't any kissing or touching until about the 71% mark in the book. Usually I wouldn't like that but the author plays this out well. I think it makes the love scenes even better

I would recommend this book & series to people who like paranormal, scifi, dystopian/fantasy, time-travel and romance type books. This is kind of a mixture of all of those. It's hard to really explain so you will just need to read the book to find out what I mean!

I'm on to the next in the series! Happy reading everyone! :)

The Watcher, by Lisa Voisin, is a YA Paranormal Romance that hooked me from page one! I love paranormal romance, but its been missing from my TBR list for far too long. Im looking for all kinds of new books that will make me want to read this genre all over again. The Watcher delivered a solid story packed with lovable characters and action that kept me on the edge of my seat! I love books about Angels and I have missed reading about them! This book makes me want to read about these beautiful creatures even more!

In this first installment of The Watcher Saga, we follow Mia and Michael. At seventeen, the last thing on Mias mind is to watch her back from horrible creatures. When a mysterious boy saves her, Mia cant deny that she feels connected to him. The more time she spends with Michael, the more she gets closer to discovering what secret hides behind her dreams. Michael knows everything about Mia. Shes the most important person in his life and he is determined to do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Will the battle between good and evil end once in for all?

This book delivered all the feels! The story was fascinating, the characters amazing and the story was beautifully written. I won't go into details about the story because I don't want to give anything away. Each reader needs to experience this story like I did. Its beautiful, heartbreaking and it will make you want more! I loved the slow building romance between Mia and Michael. It made me swoon!!!! It was beautiful to watch these two fall in love. Mias characters grew so much in this story. By the end of this reading journey, she was a strong and confident heroine that I loved to cheer for. Everything that she learned about her past life left her speechless, but she took matters into her own hands when it came to saving the people that she loves.

Michael was the kind of hero that will melt your heart!! He was so protective of Mia and I understood why he was trying to keep her away from him. I had an idea of what could have happened to Mia and Michael if they gave in to temptation, but I never expected this story to surprise me the way it did! So much details were included that I felt like I was not only reading the story, I was a part of it! I am so happy I got a chance to read The Watcher and I cant wait to see where this story is going next!

I give The Watcher, by Lisa Voisin, 4 angelic, fascinating, page-turning, angels are always there to protect you stars!

5 stars!! Awesome paranormal romance that mixes the Greek gods and the contemporary. I have had the pleasure of reading each of the books in The Mythean Arcana Series. Aurora is a soulceresses and has a history that includes tremendous power, terror/fear and love. As a young woman she met Felix who is a mix of timewalker and woulver. He is strong and powerful in his own magic but within the few short weeks he knows in his heart Aurora is his mate. They only get a few months together before they are separated for centuries. Each is tortured in different ways while apart but even knowing there will be future hardship They find joy just being in each other's presence. The book brings the characters to life and locations to reality. It includes suspense, intrigue as well as sweet & intense romance. I enjoyed the length of the book as well. Ms Hall has been able to continue her excellent writing even through this 6th book in the series which is often difficult for most authors. This book can be read as a standalone because Ms Hall has gone into the background of the characters but I recommend trying to read the books in order but it's not essential. I look forward to reading her future books. I received a free copy of this book from the author solely in exchange for an honest opinion. Thank you Ms Hall.

While visiting a friend,  Deci heads to what she believes is neutral woods for some hunting only to come face to face with a dragon who is not only swiping her prey but happens to be her mate in his spectacular paranormal romance.

The readers cant help but be enthralled with this spectacular mating between polar bear shifter, Deci and dragon shifter, Tosh, not only does the chemistry scorch the pages, this couple is dynamite together and the story is full of excitement and intrigue as Tosh is now ready to claim the kingship of his people but someone is hiding in the shadows and plotting against him which keeps readers on the edge of their seat. So as usual, the well written, fast paced and smooth flowing story keeps readers glued to the pages.

I loved this mating! Not only did it keep me glued to the pages, it introduced some new characters and dragons are always awesome but Tosh is some kind of sexy. And one other thing ~ this released on my birthday, so it made the best birthday present ever!  Thanks R.E.!

Werewolves, Witches, Warlocks and Vampires.  A Paranormal lovers dream!  I really enjoyed this story and it's excellent writing and wonderful characters! Our Heroine Sunday is a witch, running from her Coven who deems her dangerous.  Sunday is a strong woman who wants what everyone wants.  A normal life. Being "The Incarnate makes that easier said than done.  Cyrus is a tracker werewolf assigned to bring back the fugitive witch and bring her back to her Coven.  Cyrus is a very hot werewolf with a lot of anger issues and when he tangles with the elusive Sunday, their intense dislike of each other creates a tumultuous relationship I loved!  This is a book that once you start reading you will not be able to stop.  It's that good.  Christy Rey's writing, with the perfect amount of action, mystery and the perfect romance, makes this a must read for any Paranormal lover!  I highly recommend this book and great job Christy Rey!

Its been a long time since I've read a book that sucked me into the story from the first few pages and this one did it!  Almost impossible to put down once you've opened it up. This book is all that and more.  It is a paranormal romance, which means unusual creatures falling in love.  In this case the main characters are "reapers", the individuals that aid souls on their journeys into the afterlife.  She throws in demons to fight, angels with attitudes, and very vivid descriptions of places that we have always only imagined - such as Hell???

This book took me away from the everyday, into another kind of life, and kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the story.  I hear that there are three more books in this series, which is wonderful, as I can't wait to see what happens next to Deacon and Ruth, Nate and Kylen.  A forged foursome fighting against the forces of evil and so far, winning!!

What a great paranormal romance! I'm a huge fan of supernatural creatures, fantasy, and shifter stories so this was a win for me. I've only read a couple of books where gargoyles are the main focus and was thrilled with this novel. There's plenty of nail biting action, a sweet and slow building romance, and the suspense was perfectly balanced with drama, action, and the relationship between the main characters.

Damian is my kind of hero - handsome, sweet, protective, charming, and a dark alpha male who knows what he wants. That just happens to be Kelsey. She's a great heroine - strong and courageous, fighting for what she wants, and she's not afraid to move on from her traumatic past. I loved that she had her own life and mind and made her choices independent of Damian. The chemistry between the two was HOT. I liked the fast pace that kept me wanting to read late into the night.

A riveting and compelling tale that keeps you guessing up until the end. Wonderful characters and flawless writing kept me hooked from start to finish. Highly recommended!

Characters: 5/5
Plot: 5/5

Story Flow: 5/5

What a wonderful story this was! I love a good paranormal romance and this one didn't disappoint.

Paige is a brave woman who really appealed to my sense of feminine pride and Riley, OH MY GOSH!!! Riley is a super hot, extra sexy alpha (or in his case Beta) male that really leaps out of the pages and into your heart.

I loved the dynamics of all the characters, except Dominic. Him I despised oh and Zoe. Don't even get me started on these two!!!

Anyway, the wolves in this story were not like any other werewolf story I have encountered. Their history and mannerisms were unique and wonderful.

I would love to read more about this pack :)

I LOVE THIS BOOK!!!!  For her first novel, A. Jacob Sweeny truly has produced one of the best paranormal story lines I have read in a long time.  She is able to incorporate mystery, adventure, suspense, paranormal, love and historical context all into one story.  The characters are very realistic despite the underlying paranormal theme.  Michelle is a typical high school girl just trying to make her way through to becoming an adult, but feeling as if she is falling further and further behind.  She meets Elliot and despite her uncertainty in the beginning, she quickly finds herself experiencing the excitement of her first real crush, disappointment, heartbreak, anger, fear and true love.  It is not your typical paranormal romance and leaves you on edge wondering what will happen next.  The story just pulls you in and you never want it to end!  I could not put it down and actually finished it one day!!!  Michelle and Elliot are definitely on their way to becoming the next big couple in the paranormal world!!  A. Jacob Sweeny has now become one of my favorite authors and I cannot wait for her second book to be released!

This is the sequel to one of my favorite paranormal romances! It can be read as a stand alone.
I loved this book even more than its predecessor! Candy is so flawed and wonderful. Her insecurities speak to me in a way no other character has before. Candy's transformation throughout her journey is special to witness. Watching her learn to trust herself and gain confidence gives me hope. Her journey had me in tears by the end. Sherwood Wilder is the bad boy we all want to tame. He is sexy and dangerous and funny and we get to watch him fall in love! It's truly beautiful to see. The romance is intense and the paranormal aspects of the book kept me on the edge of my seat. Do yourselves a favor and and one click this baby NOW! It will take you on an incredible ride!

This is the second book in Eleri Stone's Twilight of the Gods Series and for me, was a fresh look at paranormal and I truly enjoyed it!

Nervous and excited, Raquel Lindgren steps through a portal to meet the man she is betrothed to and to meet the new clan she will eventually be the head witch for.  Only there's a few problems....one major one being she hasn't exactly come into her full powers yet.  The powers are there,  just simmering beyond the surface and she needs to figure out how to reach into herself and grasp them.  Of course, this has to happen at the same time as demons have been attacking through the portal between the worlds she is supposed to help strengthen.  Another problem? Her sudden and intense attraction to Fen, the best man and best friend of the groom.  What's a young witch to do when the weight of the clan is on her shoulders and she has a terrible suspicion that she is marrying the wrong man?

For the last 28 years, Fen has come to grips with his decision to remain and unbounded hound...sadly, that means he will forever remain a virgin.  You see, once a hound has sex, he's bonded to that person forever. The down side to that? Something he's seen time and time again.  The partner the hound bonds to decided she no longer wants to be a part of it.  Fen has decided that ignoring his desires will always be easier than having a mate who changes her mind....he'd been ok with that...yep, until he laid his eyes on Raquel.  He knows there's no way he can ignore what he feels for her...too bad she's going to marry his best friend.

Raquel and Fen not only have to deal with their feelings toward each other, they have to deal with attacks from demons from another realm, Raquel's issue with her powers, battles, injuries and turmoil within the clan.  Will it prove to be too much?
This was a fantastic story.  I loved the Norse mythology spin on paranormal and thought it was a fresh take on things.  I truly appreciated reading legends that are something new and different!  Raquel is a great heroine.  She realizes her faults and is willing to do what it takes to fix them and become the woman and witch the people need, even if it means putting her own comfort and security aside.  She knows to trust her instincts and is strong and loyal.  Very admirable qualities.  Fen is one of those deliciously dark and distant heroes that had me pining for him from the beginning.  What Eleri did with the triangle between Raquel, Fen and Christian (the man she is supposed to marry) was nail-biting perfection.  I felt for both Christian and Fen and for quite some time, couldn't decide who I wanted Raquel to choose.  That, to me, is the sign of great writing.  Getting the reader to feel for all sides is a talent.  Ultimately, I was Team Fen and was drooling over him! Of course, I won't spoil it for you but I will say the last chapter was freaking AMAZING!  A deliciously perfect ending!

I'm sure we will get to see more of Fen, Raquel, Christian and the whole clan because Eleri has hinted at more drama to come for the clan and our favorite members.  Thank you, Ms. Stone, for a fresh and exciting read!  I will be looking forward for more in the Twilight of the Gods Series!
