All Fired Up: Love Spells (Jezibaba Saga Book 1) by Donna McDonald

  A Great New Series!

I ‘discovered’ Donna McDonald’s books about five years ago with the book  The Daemon of Synar (Forced To Serve Book 1).  That story completely hooked me and I subsequently read the whole series before going onto The Art Of Love Series.  I love her relaxed style of writing that is peppered with humour and plenty of passion.  This book All Fired Up  is penned with that same style that I appreciate so much. In this new series of the paranormal we meet Elenora the reluctant Dragoness who is wanting to retire but there are issues that are prohibiting her form doing so. Damien ,her ‘boyfriend’, takes her on holiday and she is trying to get used to her new powers and he’s wanting to claim her as his dragon mate but to do this they must go before The Dragon Council for it’s approval.  Damien is always there for Elenora – even there for her first shift into a dragon and they are crazy in love with each other.  I was captivated by their story and laughed at the antics that happened to them and that they perpetrated. When reading this book you can expect wonderfully 3-dimensional characters that pull at your heart. This was a fantastic quick read with plenty of humour, romance, twists and the ‘baddies’ never, ever win!  Put quite simply, this is a splendid story that I encourage you to get for yourself. I am looking forward to book 2 in the series now! I received a reader’s copy of this book and voluntarily leave my honest opinion of it here.

Definitely recommended

12 Magical Nights of Christmas Anthology C.D. Gorri

  A  Bundle Of Fantasy & Paranormal

*All Proceeds go to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.  This book is a collection by twelve different authors surrounding the Christmas theme and includes, vampires, shifters and witchcraft.  Some of the authors are new to me  such as Solstice Magick by Heather Marie Adkins which is a real delight to read as I don’t normally read much about witchcraft but Heather Marie really does weave a magical story for us in this story. I will certainly be looking out for more stories by her in future! I laughed and really enjoyed Dragon Got Run Over By A Reindeer by Julia Mills, another newbie to me – really put me in the Christmas spirit 🙂 .  Want to read about people joining the Mile High Club at Christmas? Then look no further than The Dragon’s Magical Night by P.T. Macias – but have your fans at the ready.  It is only within the last month that I ‘discovered C.D. Gori and , I confess, that this is the first of all the stories that I read as I like her style of writing so much. She draws you into the storyline straight away and keeps you riveted to the book till you reach the end.  I didn’t read them all in order, but just picked them by the titles.  There was only one that I felt let down by after reading it and that was A Beary Christmas by Ariel Marie.  As soon as I saw ‘Bearly’, I thought “Great!” but Ariel Marie’s style of writing just didn’t gel with me but probably will with others. Overall, I really enjoyed the first three that I mentioned here the most but the others were also really enjoyable with the exception of AM’s – hence only four stars.

Do I recommend this bundle to readers – Yes!  Most certainly, after all the money is going to St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital and 11 out of 12 books, as far as I am concerned is still great value for  money.
