Healed by Hunger (The Happy Endings Resort Series Book 34): The Wolf Creek Pack by Crystal Rister

  He’s Coming To Claim Her

This is the first book that I’ve read by Crystal Rister and I did really enjoy it.  I love reading about the paranormal [amongst so many other genres] and the way that Crystal penned this plot by creating such powerful and complex characters.  This is a good and ‘different’ plot about a young girl, River, who loved a man in her pack but she was driven away by her mother and only came home for her mother’s funeral. She’s now in hiding from the  man whose child she bore but she also has Ace wanting to claim her as his mate at last.  Now alpha he has made changes and he’s not going to wait any more to claim her as his.  This is book number 34 of the series but it certainly could be read as a standalone as I enjoyed it and hadn’t read any of her previous books.  Well written with great information to bring the story to life and keep you engaged in the story. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.

   All For Love!

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.  Cael who is a dedicated physician and secret wolf shifter has met his fated mate in the guise of Dr. Rayne Davis.  But he has to be put in seclusion as he believes that is the only thing that he can do to save his older brother and Rachel.  Rachel is distraught as she knew he was her mate and she is bereft without him without saying a word. She works at the same hospital and puts all her energies into her work as she feels that she has nothing left to do without him.  His brother, David, wants Cael back and he decides to do a little matchmaking and with some help he gets Cael back at home and in the hospital and with Rachel!   Rachel is ecstatic that Cael is back but her wolf needs to heal as it has been lost with his disappearance.  There is a mystery to be solved and bring healing to both of them and their wolves.  Such a great storyline with characters that I truly liked and the way they developed throughout the story made it so very special.  I only ‘discovered, C.D. Gorri this year and I like each subsequent book even more than the last and I’m now looking forward to her next romantic adventure. This is a fast paced story that I don’t think that you will want to put down till you reach the satisfying conclusion.  A great love story.

Cupid’s Shifters 4 Book Box Set by Lisa Daniels

  A Valentine’s Bundle Of Paranormal Love

This is a wonderful collection of four shifter stories by Lisa Daniels.  I had already read two of them and I looked forward to reading two ‘new’ stories.  They were , indeed, just as entertaining as the ones I knew.

Book 1: Rescued by Ryland

As this is a book by Lisa Daniels who is on my favourite authors list and it involves bears that I love, I knew that I was onto a winner even before reading a page. But this was even better than I anticipated as it starts off really as a sweet romance, with Serenity, an MIT coding nerd leaving the bustle of city life to finish her masters degree in a small provincial town and it’s on a hike into the mountains [she is a computer nerd who loves the outdoors and is feeling lonely] when she meets the handsome Ryland who seems to be very gruff with her and they just don’t seem to like each other. But remember, hate is sometimes akin to love and this book is about romance so no hating here. Her professor suggest that she join an outdoors trip such as white water rafting and she would meet more people and guess who is on the raft – yes you’ve got it, Ryland. There is obvious chemistry between them but also tension as there are secrets that will be revealed. This was a page turning wonderful story of meeting a new and lasting love. The dialogue was fun and the way that Ryland and Serenity interacted was just perfect. very entertaining and kept me engrossed form the first to last page. Now looking forward to Lisa’s next book as I’ve read all her others already. I thoroughly enjoyed Ryland and Lisa’s HEA to you.

Book 2:  Annora’s Dragon.

We meet Annora, who is a dragon slayer, and Elian, who is a dragon shifter, who are fated mates.  Annora has had a tragic life so far as both her parents died at the hand of dragons and so she has made it her life’s aim to kill all dragons.  It is not till she has got to know Elian and loving him that she learns his secret of what a magical creature he is.  Will they get their HEA?

Book 3: Anya’s Freedom.

Anya is a human slave on the Wyrm homestead and she is desperate to leave and tries to encourage other slaves to be with her. But someone informs on her and she has to flee for her life. On her race to freedom she meets Kalgrin who is wanting to punish the Wyrms too but he either needs to save Ayna or she will die. He changes into a mighty dragon and rescues her. This is a short, fast paced story by Lisa Daniels that is a really interesting read and will keep you turning page after page. It can easily, be read in an afternoon. It is well written and tells the story of Anya’s freedom and her discovery of another race called the Drakes whom Kalgrin belongs to. She had always made herself look hideous so the wyrms would not want her but Kalgrin is an entirely different creature and she knows that she can trust this sexy stranger who flew her to safety. Romance between them? You’ll have to read the book adn find out 😉

Book 4: Mordred and Kiara

I hadn’t read this book before but it was really good like the other books in this bundle.  Kiara gets bored very easily and doesn’t like sitting in on meetings.  Having escaped from  home that morning she is tracked down by a huntsman to take her to the meeting where she is noticed by a yellow eyed man whom she knew must be one of the wyrms who hate humans. She hates them too for what they do to humans as those yellow eyed serpents are cruel. There are negotiations taking place and she thinks they are for her sister to be betrothed to a yellow eyed monster. But she’s wrong as it’s for her as Mordred couldn’t take his eyes off her.  How will Kiara deal with being married to such a creature? To find out you need to get a copy of this book and read!!

In conclusion, I would encourage you to get yourself a copy of this book if you like shifters and romances.

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.

Cat’s Howl (Macconwood Pack #2) by C.D. Gorri

  Will They Share Their Feelings For Each Other?

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. This is the second book that I’ve read by C.D. Gorri in the last few weeks and both have been great reads! With a lovely flowing writing style C.D. Gorri has such a great command of words that she transforms them into her characters so we almost ‘know’what they look like and can ‘see’ eye rolls and smirks – her way of visualising the storyline is excellent. cat Maccon is the Alpha’s sister and she needs to be protected form their enemies and who better to guard her than his second, Tate Nighthawk. Now we know that cat has had a crush on Tate for many years and also that Tate has had a serious ‘thing’ for her for years too but neither knows the other’s feelings – so this is going to be fun! As they go on the run, these two will have ot trust each other completely and depend upon one another with their lives. But will they share their feelings with each other?? The story has a few twists and turns and maybe all will then be revealed and to their Alpha too?? Whatever will Rafe [her brother] say about them? To find out you need to get a copy of this book yourself. I’m now looking forward to reading the next in the series. Enjoy!

Taka (Brothers Of The Dark Places #3) by Miranda Bailey

  Shifters At War!

I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review. Taka is the Dragon Shifter King and the world is falling apart as earthquakes are regularly occurring and ruining the land so he must take his people to safety. Whilst walking he comes across a captured wolf shifter who has bitten
one of his brothers trying to kill him. Taka, at once, recognises her as his soulmate and Aska recognises that he is hers too. So Taka must get her away from his brothers as they will kill her which will mean that he will die too. Aska is a feisty young she wolf whose father declares war on the dragon shifters and he has raised Aska to use all her skills and anything at her disposal to kill Taka This means that she will use her knowledge that she is his soulmate to trick him into freeing her. I have read both of the two books prior to this in the series, Wruin and Endre and I loved them! having said that, this can be read as a standalone story but, having read the other two I understand so much more. Miranda Bailey is a fantastic writer with clever storylines and she gives you sufficient details to make the characters come alive before your very eyes. I do love reading paranormal stories and shifters are my favourite of the genre. This is one fast paced story that is a real page turner and a must read. Enjoy!!!
