Trinity Awakening does not disappoint!
599076
Two of my children and I have been waiting in eager anticipation for months for the Trinity Awakening, hoping beyond hope that it would delight as well as did the first installment in the Sekry Sequence, City of the Falling Sky. That book is legend in our house, my son having read it seven times! One night, long after bedtime, my son comes running out of his room to show me on his kindle "look mom its here!" Of course, I bought it immediately and the next night at bedtime all three of us settled down to read with anticipation and we've been reading every night at bedtime since. At first we thought this book couldn't possibly be as intricate, as funny, as surprising, or as satisfying as the first, but we were happily mistaken. This author should be on bestseller lists everywhere. He has a gift for making characters real, for making you love them, and for making you care what happens. When Sekry and Eiya went to kiss and then Eiya...well...can't give it away, but just suffice it to say three voices rose in chorus to cry out "noooooo!" There are so many intricate, and intergesting new mysteries to solve I don't think anybody will be disappointed in this stellar sequal to City of the falling sky. We three say - Trinity Awakening satisfies on every level!

I'm so happy! Finally getting Wrath's and Trinity's story has really made me a happy reader. I always felt the tension between those two and was constantly curious to know what went on between them to cause so much hostility and jealousy.

Autumn Jones Lake did an awesome job of providing their story and weaving through the timeline we've already been given with Rock and Hope's story. It worked out seamlessly and gave a full picture so that everything came full circle, in a sense.

Now, I'm a fan of the series and I adore Rock's sweet and gentle ways but Wrath provided me with the edge and dangerous vibe that usually comes with an MC romance. His personality made me believe so much more that the Lost Kings were a real MC. Getting to know him better, instead of the grouchy parts we saw in the previous books has made him my favorite character. He's the perfect combo of strong, yet gentle; hard, yet soft and dangerous, yet safe. His affections for Trinity run so much deeper than we've seen before.

Trinity was also a favorite of mine. I already knew she was an amazing woman. She was good to the MC and helped out when she was needed. She took her responsibilities seriously and was a great friend to Rock. Getting to read her and Wrath's story, we learn of her past and it's a past that would shock you into wondering how she turned out the way she is. From the snip its of her in the previous books, it's not something I would have guessed but she just proves her strength and character by being who she is but we also see that her past has also caused deep insecurities that caused her to do the things she's done.

This was definitely my favorite book in the series and Wrath and Trinity are my favorite couple. I can't wait to read what's in store for them in the next one.

I have been reading this series since the first book and couldn't wait to find out what happened between Lars and Laila. This third book in the trilogy was even more thrilling than the first two! It answered all of my questions about the characters' fate and did not disappoint in the adventure category either. Of the Redeemed was an inspiration to me and helped to strengthen my faith in Christ as my Redeemer.

The second book in The Darkest Drae series did not disappoint!  I had been waiting (not patiently) for the release of this book, after reading the first and finding myself completely immersed in the realms of fantasy!
Book 2 jumped right in where the first left off and I found myself, once again, carried away by the wonderful characters!
As Ryn, Tyrric, and Dyter set off in an attempt to unite the realms against Emperor Draedyn, Ryn hopes to learn more about her Phaetyn abilities, adjust to being Drae, while mourning the loss of her mother.
Once again, the relationships between the characters are stellar!  There is just the right amount of tension between Ryn and Tyrric.  The relationship between Ryn and Dyter is beautiful, as Dyter is the loving, supportive father that Ryn never had.
There are plenty of moments that I found myself holding my breath to see what would happen next, and moments where I shed a tear or two.
I am so looking forward to the release of Book 3!

Sharon Hinck does not disappoint! I am gripped by this series and the interplay between two worlds. It is fantasy that feels real, even possible. But what I love about Ms. Hinck's writing is how she teaches me something new with every book about my own spiritual life, and encourages me in this journey. For this I am eternally grateful.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-Restorers-Journey-The-Sword-of-Lyric/dp/1600061338/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The Restorers Journey (The Sword of Lyric)</a>

I downloaded this book, and planned on reading it over the long holiday weekend.  Did that happen?  Nope.  Why?  Because I ended up staying up late, voraciously reading it and finished it in one day.

Carson Gage does a wonderful job of really bringing his character Nick to life.  A womanizing, emotionally distant workaholic who goes through a spiritual awakening in a very believable way.  The transformation he goes through is incredible. Even though I'm a woman, I was really intrigued and drawn into the story, and found it fascinating. I even ended up highlighting a couple of spiritual terms that I have never heard about, although I've had an interest in spirituality since my teens.

The last time I was so wrapped up in a fiction novel that still gives spiritual lessons was years ago when I came across The Celestine Prophecy, one of my all time favorite books.  This reminded me of it, in many ways, in the way it got me sucked into the story, and taught me lessons.  I also loved the parts on the past life regression, and am so wanting to try that for myself now!

This was a very, very well written book and I hope the author writes many more stories in the future.

Trinity Ewing moved to Madison with the intention of starting a new life for herself and her son, but the idyllic town on the Ohio River is turning out to be anything but drama free.  The debilitated house she bought has been a disaster from day one with rotted floors, faulty water lines and a number of other problems.  Trinity has no way of knowing about the difficulties the young people of Madison have experienced or how her new home plays into the devastating events of the past  and present.

Noah Preach Benningfield has learned to live with his demons; however, accepting the challenge of fixing up Trinitys new home has pushed him into not only dealing with his own emotional turmoil, but admitting to a desire for the towns newest resident  Trinity.  As a former youth minister hes determined to help save Madisons youth from self-destruction via a forum he set up.  He knows theres more going on than just boredom thats causing teenage boys to turn to a bottle, but isn't sure how to help besides listening to their troubles.  The last thing he expects is for his work at Trinitys home to reveal a secret that could blow the lid off a deep dark town secret.

I absolutely loved Shiloh Walkers erotic romances but shes now cemented herself a place as my most loved romantic suspense author as well.  The plot is well developed, characters are highly memorable and easy to empathize with, and the suspense kept me glued to the pages trying to figure out what was going on and whos involved.  Trinity and Noah are wonderful characters who have troubled pasts but want a better future and once they meet each other its evident that they could have that  together.

Like her previous series, THE ASH TRILOGY, her SECRETS & SHADOWS series promises to be just as suspenseful and awe-inspring.  I can hardly wait to dive into the next book or discover if any of my suspicions are correct  and will be thrilled if the truth, once revealed, is completely different than I imagine.

The town of Madison was first introduced to readers with a set of novellas (ebook only) featuring the Bell siblings
BURN FOR ME
BREAK FOR ME  releasing in September 2014
LONG FOR ME  March 2015

Ms. Walkers expanded the storyline in the newest addition to the series which takes a darker look at the troubles lurking within this seemingly peaceful town.

After finishing Reflections, book one in this series, I was so looking forward to the follow up. Neil Cladingboel has not disappointed me with The Anvil Amulet. In fact, this new adventure is a real page turner with a well paced story that makes me anticipate the long-awaited conclusion later in the year!
This new story continues the Erebus adventure with so many twist and turns that in parts, it left me breathless, yet longing for more! I'd love to be able to read the whole trilogy in one volume. Why? Well, I guess I just can't get enough of Erebus and its wonderful characters!

Finally the long-awaited sequel to Otherborn!

You can expect wicked action and emotionally engaging characters in this deeply satisfying read. Anna Silver has limitless potential and this spellbinding sequel is proof. From her breakthrough style to her genuine characters you cant help but fall in love with Astral Tide.

Its been months and Rye is still missing. Dont let the time gap fool you into thinking the action has let up, the punches are still being thrown right and left and the characters are in for a steep learning curve. No need for fear of second-book-slumps with this novel. With an exquisite style this pulse-pounding adventure brings you in and refuses to let go. I love that I never know what will happen next. Anna has set up characters and a world whose core abilities counteract each other. Astral makes possibilities limitless while emotions create their own confines.

On a planet with extremely limited views and a fear of all things new, these characters had fear and an inability to act in the face of adversity trained into them from day one and are learning to fight back. As they break through the their binds they grow as a group and as individual characters. The twists and turns are expertly executed. Unparalleled and delightfully different Otherborn and Astral Tide are remarkable finds and a refreshing change of pace. A wonderful addition to one of my favorite series!

I was not a fan of Bowen Knight or the Human Alliance, but trust Nalini Singh to add dimension and depth to this new facet of the incredible Psy-Chalengeling-Trinity series. We are just beginning to understand the Black Sea changelings, and Ocean Light brings together these two solitary groups in a tightly plotted, suspenseful, love story.  Bo and Kaia are so incredibly strong, and demonstrate what two people will do for love and family. There is something in this book for new readers and for seasoned fans. The book is cinematic and otherworldly, it felt like you could smell the sea spray and feel the snow! Bo is fighting for his life, his love,and his people, and Kaia is just the heroine to rise like a phoenix from the ashes of her tragic past, to help Bo build a future. Will Bo be saved, can Kaia fight her fears? Welcome to Ocean Light, and happy reading!

This three book series has had me hooked from the beginning!  Endless was the closing act to a captivating and uplifting series that you won't be able to put down.  The tale of Tess and Alex waxes and wanes through each chapter of existence, giving the reader faith in the ultimate story of love. Unlike so many other novels, the Veiled series is uplifting and full of promise for its reader.  You will not be disappointed.

So in the past couple days I devoured the 2 books so far in this series if that tells you anything to begin with.

You follow Trinity as she finds out who she is in the series. She starts off kind of as a lost girl but soon finds out she is so much more. Her two best friends show the dynamics of a triangle of trust and it is tested throughout. Trinity herself seems to feel for everyone else and has a tough time figuring out how she herself feels. That is until the the night of her 18th birthday, when she begins her adventure into figuring out her destiny.

It's a must read as you see friendships tested, loves sought and a new world opened up to everyone's eyes.

There's deceit and anger. There's secrets and truths abound to be told and it's up to Trinity to figure them all out.

She has to make a choice in the end, which monster does she really want to be?

I have followed this series and was very anxious for this "Legacy" conclusion to the trilogy.  It does not disappoint and I highly recommend to anyone who enjoys an intriguing story of good triumphing over evil, in this case with a very Biblical foundation to the characters and plot.  I not only enjoyed it as entertaining fiction, but felt that the obvious research done applying scripture to the characters, gave me a learning experience that the Word of God is as applicable today as when penned.
Kudos to you, Mrs. Helm. I shall be watching for more to come from this author.  Thank you!
Blessings, Donna B.

The 49th Mystic is a journey you will not regret taking. Ted Dekker has been my favorite author for most of my life and once again draws you in right away with an intriguing main character, Rachelle. Her story will captivate you as you journey alongside her. Hers is a journey of discovery, healing, and empowerment. As she discovers who she is and what she was made for, you feel like you're learning about yourself as well. This story is changing how I look at the world around me as it incorporates principles of identity into a story that will pull you in and not let go until you finish. I cant wait for part two.

Kristina has done it again!
She has written another illuminating book; this time  speaking to us on discipleship. She brings the disciples and their forces to Life and assists tremendously in helping us to awaken and incorporate the spiritual forces in our own lives. This book is truly transformational.

I've read it four times, and each and every time I finish it, I feel so much love for the Holy Trinity!! Why does this book affect me so? I've also given away several copies, and they have passed it on to others!
