Ahhh The Revenger by Debra Anastasia releases today!!!

 

Blurb...

The real hero of this story is dead. You should have met him. He was a beautiful man. The love of my life. I didn’t deserve him.

Now what’s left are the jagged edges of the person I am without him, and what I have to do to get by. This isn’t even a story about love. Not really. It’s a twisted tale of revenge and hate—a happily never after.

The only man in my life now is the one I have to kill.

I’m Savvy Raine.

I used to be a wife.

I used to be a mother.

Now I am the Revenger.

EXCERPT

There was very little chatter after the alarming phone call. Savvy looked at the clock. It was only five, but the extra help Tallow had enlisted acted like she was about to disintegrate. When they were finally done, they hung Savvy’s costume from a door, fully expecting her to drop trou in front of all the strangers.

She looked at the silver outfit meant to demean her and classify her as his, just like all his other favorites.

“Yeah, I’m not actually going to be wearing that.” She looked from one shocked person to the other.

Tallow recovered first. “But this is what he told you to wear!”

Savvy laughed hollowly. “Yeah, he can suck his own d*ck for all I care.”

The atmosphere changed. The others now realized Savvy didn’t think it was a huge honor to be a f*ckhole.

“That’s not acceptable. I’ll put you in it myself if I have to, but you’re leaving here in that outfit.” Tallow bravely gathered up the skirt and came into Savvy’s personal space. He obviously thought she was just a regular girl.

In an instant she’d lifted Tallow into the air by his neck. “I’m not wearing it.” She stared him down until he began to turn blue. Then she set him back on his feet.

Tallow was a quick learner and smoothed his fancy shirt. “Okay then, let me see what else we have.”

Strings by David Estes ~ GIVEAWAY & Excerpt

"A wonderful retelling of the Pinocchio story…I simply couldn’t put this book down."  Rysa Walker, bestselling author of TIMEBOUND

Strings written by David Estes
Add Strings to Goodreads Purchase Strings eBook Paperback Audiobook

Sometimes the strings that tie us down are the same strings that set us free. Sixteen-year-old Pia has always lived in a mysterious facility where mechanical strings control her existence. She plays apprentice to her father, Gio, in performing nanotech designs for the Company, and she soon suspects there are diabolical human forces behind the manufactured reality of her world. Though her childhood memories and the origins of the strings remain strangely elusive, she begins to find solace with the introduction of two unlikely friends: daring, irrational Sofia, and calm, tender Marco. As the truths of the past and present unravel together, Pia must find a way to free herself from her strings and escape the facility before facing the wrath of the unstable head of security, Mr. Davis. But to gain her freedom, she must navigate the dangers posed by Davis and by her suspicious new friends to find the real identity of the puppeteer. If Pia can succeed in revealing the secrets of the Company, she may very well find the independence she so desperately seeks. But in her controlled world nothing is as it seems, and the closer she gets to the truth, the graver the consequences.

Excerpt

I see it.

A few steps away, closer than my father’s station: the door to the outside. The guard has gotten lazy, having left the door ajar, a sliver of outside sunlight burning an orange stripe across the floor.

Without thinking, I race for the opening, feeling my strings tense a moment too late, for once not anticipating my move—probably because of how insane it is. My hands are battering rams, shoving the door open, reaching for the sunlight. My body goes rigid as the guard barks, “Hey!” and I feel a monstrous force grab my hands, my feet, my shoulders, my hips, and my head, thrusting them in reverse. I’m airborne, flying back inside, the room a blur of equipment and bright walls and a dark, swirling ceiling, and my father’s eyes—wide and white with fear.

My body hits the floor with a vicious thud that jars my bones and rattles my teeth, which should be punishment enough.

It’s not.

The strings are livid, no longer black, pulsing with red, like blood rushing through a needle. They snap at my skin, cracking like whips—and when they connect they’re like severed electrical wires, sending shocks through my core, to my extremities, to the deepest, darkest, most hidden parts of my soul.

And through my blurry, tear-filled vision, I can see past my father, who’s struggling fruitlessly with the guard, trying to get to me. My heart sinks.

Because the box on the screen is displaying a single sentence:

Message sent.

Darkness folds its silky wings around me.

Remember for Shannon Dermott ~ Cover Reveal

Title: Remember

Author: Shannon Dermott

Release date: 02/29

Genre: YA paranormal romance

Blurb:

Fans of Twilight will love the world of angels, demons, vampires and shifters that Shannon Dermott has created.

Sixteen-year-old, Charlize Daniels, is resigned to her place in the shadows until one day with a rush of death, she meets him.

He’s everything she’s not. Tall with face like an angel, a mouth like a sinner, tattoos and piercings to rival those of rock gods, in one word, he’s cocky. And worse, he comes with his own personal fan club.

Only their every meeting is suspect, leaving her to question why he only ever turns up when her life is headed south, backwards or upside down. His explanations are shady, and his hot and cold gives her whiplash. But his lips on hers burn and take her places she’s never been.

If only she can trust him. If only he reveals what he really is? Then hopefully they won’t end up on opposite sides of a frienemy line, and she’s forced to take him down. Worse case, he’s already planned to take her out first. And not on a date, but in a dead kind of way.

Born in the north and raised in the south, Shannon Dermott is an author of paranormal romance/urban fantasy and contemporary romance for young adultsand adults. Although originally a northerner, she grew up during her formidable years in the southern heat, hanging out and having lots of fun.

It was during those years, she explored her creative side with fictional romance stories about all her teen crushes. Fun times!

Her love for reading constantly conflicts with her need to write. Interestingly, she reads more police procedural than fantasy or romance. When not reading or writing, Shannon is going to the movies, hanging out with family and friends, or best of all shopping. She loves all kinds of music (current and the 80s) and is currently obsessed with Thirty Seconds to Mars.

Just as much love Shannon has for reading is her first passion for numbers and math. But though it began with her obsession of reading and math, weaving stories won out in the end.

Brotherhood in Death (In Death #42) by J.D. Robb

This is a futuristic police procedural novel (Rated Nc-17)

♥♥♥♥

(Four Brotherhood Hearts)

Book Summary

Sometimes brotherhood can be another word for conspiracy...
Dennis Mira just had two unpleasant surprises. First he learned that his cousin Edward was secretly meeting with a real estate agent about their late grandfather’s magnificent West Village brownstone, despite the promise they both made to keep it in the family. Then, when he went to the house to confront Edward about it, he got a blunt object to the back of the head.

Luckily Dennis is married to Charlotte Mira, the NYPSD’s top profiler and a good friend of Lieutenant Eve Dallas. When the two arrive on the scene, he explains that the last thing he saw was Edward in a chair, bruised and bloody. When he came to, his cousin was gone. With the mess cleaned up and the security disks removed, there’s nothing left behind but a few traces for forensics to analyze.

As a former lawyer, judge, and senator, Edward Mira mingled with the elite and crossed paths with criminals, making enemies on a regular basis. Like so many politicians, he also made some very close friends behind closed—and locked—doors. But a badge and a billionaire husband can get you into places others can’t go, and Eve intends to shine some light on the dirty deals and dark motives behind the disappearance of a powerful man, the family discord over a multimillion-dollar piece of real estate . . . and a new case that no one saw coming.

My Review

I have loved this series for the first. And even after forty plus regular installments (not including novellas), I still love it. It’s no wonder because crime/mystery/police procedural is my first love. Add in a mix of romance and you have a winner.

This case was complex. Although, I knew who the culprits were, I didn’t get the full extent of the story. So it’s always a good thing when I don’t guess everything.

My only complaint was that the subject matter was sensitive. And we basically had the same murder type last go around, albeit totally different execution and suspect pool. I just hope the next story is plain murder. That’s a personal thing for me.

Otherwise, another great installment. I look forward to the next.

Audio Review

Susan Erickson totally has this narration nailed down.

My Review

One thing I love about this author is that I don’t walk away from the story feeling like I’ve lost several brain cells, which is the case with some romance novels. The story is rich in history which I love and the characters are authentic and well developed.

My only regret is that I’m not a re-reader. One I don’t have time and too I find re-reading boring. So it took me some time to remember the first installment which I read (listened to) about a year ago. Thus, I felt lost for a short time.

I’m not sure that or if it was the writing, but the story was slow for a bit. There wasn’t much action and a lot more talk and introspection. That isn’t all bad. But I wanted to be sucked into the story from the first page and I wasn’t.

However, once things got going, they got going. And let me tell you, I didn’t want it to end. I also have to say I was surprised how things played out for the most part. The last, I suspected after the reveal of the rest. I can’t wait to gobble up the next installment. And if it’s the last, I will be sad.

Audio Review

John Michael Morgan handled the narration beautifully with all the different accents and captured the spirit of the characters with ease.

Sojourn (Bellator Saga #3) by Cecilia London

Sojourn (Bellator Saga #3) by Cecilia London

This is an adult romantic suspense with a dystopian twist (Rated NC-17)

Book Summary

Haunted by her experience at The Fed, Caroline tries to create a new identity. A new present, a new future. She can’t escape the memories that dog her when she least expects it, leaving her mired in a depression that she finds difficult to escape. Caroline needs to regain her physical and mental strength if she intends on surviving the journey to find the elusive rebellion. But that’s easier said than done with the ghosts of the past constantly whispering in her ear.

The road is long and dangerous, and there are no guarantees. She and her companions have no idea what they will find when they arrive at their destination. And what they finally discover may change everything.

Part Three of a Six Part Saga. Sojourn (approximately 89,000 words) is not a standalone and must be read after the first two books in the series. Ends in a cliffhanger. For readers 18+. This book contains adult situations including explicit sex and violence.

My Summary

There isn't a whole lot I can say without giving away spoilers, but let me try.

This book starts off where we left off in book two. We continue to move forward in the story with flashes of the past to give us more of what we want. (You have to read to understand that comment).

I have to admit, this book shows a side of Caroline I didn't always like but understood given her circumstances. In fact, I can't totally blame her for most of her actions, but it didn't mean I had to like them all. 

The end of this part leaves us satisfied and unsatisfied at the same time. How? Well, I think there are some good things there, only the freaking book ends. And its a good thing when you're left wanting more.

The major goodness about this series is that although there are six parts, this story isn't dragged out with fluff. Things happen that keep you turning the pages and wanting more. I'm scared and excited for what's to come, which makes this series so thrilling.

You are missing out if you haven't read this one. If you don't like dystopian, this isn't your typical "Divergent or Hunger Games" dystopian story. And although the world has changed in major ways, the landscape of the story remains the same. So you not walking into a strange new world. There are just a few government type changes that have occurred that have made life difficult. So don't be afraid of the word dystopian and dive into this one.

My book Boyfriend will always be Jack.
