✯Review✯The Crucial Shift(The Ariane Trilogy #3) by Michelle Dare

Title: The Crucial Shift
Author: Michelle Dare
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance
Cover Designer: Regina Wamba at Mae I Design
Publication Date: December 14th, 2018
Blurb:
A bond sealed. A new reality. A pack war.
Since she met Orion, Ariane’s life had been anything but calm. With the threat of war looming only days away, ensuring victory for the Avynwood Pack was her primary focus. Some of her new friends would lose their lives in the fight, a fact she already accepted.
But what if along the way, she uncovered new details about herself? What if becoming Orion’s mate revealed more than she ever imagined possible?
A new shifter was in town, and she was thirsty for revenge.


✯✯5 Avynwood Strong Stars!!!✯✯

I’m so in love with this series!!! I’m so happy to see Travis and Benedict finally get what’s coming to them. 

This trilogy is so amazing. The wolves and their mates, the vampires, the fae and their ally’s are so amazing that I want to be a part of their world. I don’t want to give away the conclusion to this trilogy so here’s a few bits. 

We leave off with Ari and Rion going to The Quivakokd Pack not sure what to expect. The alpha is Merrick and he happens to be Travis’s brother and they weren’t sure if him and his pack would help them. Shocking to both Ari and Rion that Merrick’s mate just happens to be Ari’s Aunt Zayda.  She’s Ari’s fathers sister and she happens to be a wolf shifter. Merrick and his pack will help The Avynwood Pack against their fight against Travis. 

Ari and Rion finally complete their mating ritual. These two become fierce together. Once they become mated their bond strengthens. They share their powers. Thanks to the gifts Ford has given Ari. They can still read each other’s minds but they both can teleport, have the strength and healing of a vampire. 

Ari’s best friend is and always will be Ford. Even though Rion hates their relationship he’d never do anything to Ford bc he’d never cause Ari pain. Ford’s in love with Ari or so he believes. Ford will continue reading Ari’s mind and her dreams. He’d do anything to keep her safe. 

Ari’s becomes very close and protective over Rion’s cousin Wake. Travis used him more times then anybody else.  Wake went thru hell bc Travis is evil and lives on power and nothing more. 

The war that’s coming to The Avynwood Pack is crazier, evil and dirtier than they all originally thought. The Avynwood Pack has ally’s with other shifter pacts as well as other paranormals. If you’ve fallen for Ford and Wake. Be prepared!! There’s 2 new ones you’ll fall for.  Solomon, whose Ford’s brother and Kylest, who is a fae. 


Needless to say these four men are getting their stories told and I’m stoked!!!

✯Review✯Kennedy(The Phoenix Club Girl Diaries #1 by Addison Jane

Blurb
KENNEDY

I was paying off a debt. 
One that wasn’t mine. 
But when your father screws over an outlaw motorcycle club and then disappears with their money, you have two choices. 
Pay with your body, or pay with your blood. 
With a little sister to protect, I did what I had to. 
I gave them me. 

REPO

I was born a protector. 
Whatever it took, I did it.
My family, my brothers and the club’s name—I made sure that anyone who crossed us, or at least anyone who tried, learned quickly why they shouldn’t.
Seeing her sitting at the bar, I was drawn to her. Her scars, her bruises, and the light around her. 
Without knowing me, she instantly had my back.
So it was only fair I had hers.

She walked in with the enemy. 
But there was no way in hell I was letting her walk out with them.



✯✯5 Repo Filled Stars!!!✯✯ 

Addison Jane is back with her big bad world of bikers and their club girls. I’ve been hooked since the first book of this amazing series surrounding the Brothers by Blood MC. 

We have the original guys & girls with The Club Girl Diaries and then Meyah found her dad and brothers who’re head of The Exiled Eight MC and from there the Brothers by Blood have started a new chapter which brings us to Phoenix and this is the first couple from the new charter. 

When Kennedy’s father disappeared five years ago her and her sisters lives were turned upside down. When Crow the president of the Red Riot MC showed up on their doorstep telling them their dad stole their money and it was up to them to payback his debt. 

Kennedy signed a contract with Crow and the MC. She belongs to them. They let her know it too. This MC doesn’t respect the girls they’ve got. Kennedy has been beaten half to death multiple times. Kennedy’s time is almost up and she can’t wait. She wants to take her sister and best friend Laken and get as far away from them as possible. When she’s told by Crow to pack they were going to Phoenix. Kennedy knows something is wrong and everything is going to change.  

Repo got his road name for a reason. When he wants something he takes it. Repossess it. When another MC comes into their territory he instantly knows these guys are trouble. He was unprepared for how twisted they were. 

The minute Repo spots Kennedy he knows she’s not a typical club girl. He can see she’s there against her will and after the brief interaction he had with her he knows she’s not loyal to them. So he does what he does best lol and he took Kennedy from then. 

When he finds out the whole situation that Kennedy’s been dealing with he makes a call to Huntsman to pickup her sister and keep her safe. Repo calls Wrench to look into everything Red Riot MC. He wants Kennedy safe and away from them once and for all. 

I absolutely loved both Repo and Kennedy. They’re perfect together. Kennedy is so so so strong for both herself and her sister. She was also great for Repo.  She understood him and everything he went thru inside his head and didn’t say out loud. Repo man oh man!!! He’s the perfect first man to show in the newest charter of amazing MC men!! He might not of thought highly of himself but he really was bad ass. 

Addison Jane has created this MC world that nobody else could ever compare too. I love how  these bikers respect women. Even the club girls. They don’t look down on them, they provide them with shelter, work, pay for them to go to school, protect them. 

Even though this was the Phoenix chapters first book everybody from Huntsman’s MC, Optimums and his guys. I want more from all 3 charters and I’ve been hoping we get more from Kit’s charter. Yes, I’m greedy!!! It’s all Addison’s fault though lol

✯Release Review✯Warrant (Vindicator Series #2) by Kathy Coopmans

WARRANT by USA Today Bestselling Author Kathy Coopmans is LIVE!



Every wrongdoing warrants a consequence. In my case, I've decided to settle the score with death. 
Especially when, what brought this on, what stirred up my crazy, was the vicious attack on an innocent young girl. 

Worse, one that ended in her death.


Years, I've been plotting to take out the men I used to call my brothers.


The men who double-crossed me by brutally murdering my sister.

I want revenge. I need it. Crave it. It's in my blood.

I planned to stop at nothing. No matter, if I conflicted pain on another woman. 

After all, it was her brother who killed my sister. I figured, why not make him suffer the same way I have.


One tiny glimpse of her changes everything. 

Or does it?


Maybe, just maybe, the little siren I wanted to harm is going to single-handedly slaughter me instead.

Lies. Deceit.

Manipulation.

Gotta love a tangled web of warranted deception.


✯✯5 Warranted Stars!!!✯✯

Omg. This is the second book in The Vindicator Series I’d suggest you read Cade and Ivy’s story Vengeance first. ESP since you’ll miss out on Chaz from beginning to end. 

I really don’t want to giveaway this story. This is a dark read. A true legit dark read. If you have triggers I’d suggest be careful going into this story. 

Chaz was betrayed by his closest friends. He was beaten, tortured and forced to watch his sister get the same and worse. Since then he’s vowed to get revenge for his sister. He’s got new friends. Chaz has brothers Cade and Nick who’ve got their own dark stories, their own revenge to get. They’ve hooked themselves up with Roan Diamond and his empire. Together their a force you don’t want to cross. Bc, Chaz will serve you with a warrant for your life. Trust me you don’t want that. 

Chaz had planned on getting his revenge against the ones who took his sister away from him. He’d planned on getting to them by taking his enemies sister. But, things didn’t go as planned. Nope. One look at her and the same sadness, pain, torture and hate that he saw when he looked in the mirror where in her eyes. 

It was then Chaz planned on making Jillian his. Making her know how beautiful, strong and is so much better then what she’d been lead to believe her whole life. 

When Jillian’s mom passed away her life got turned upside down. She learned her brother was an evil monster. When found out what she was planning he made sure she knew her place. He killed a girl in front of her and made knew he knows her every move. If she tries to cross him again he’ll kill her or make her life so bad she’d wish death would come knocking at her door. 

Jillian had a very miserable, sheltered life. Until she met a stranger. They might not of met face to face but it’s the first time since she lost her mom that she feels anything but scared and lonely. 

Jillian couldn’t believe it when the face behind the face is Chaz. She hasn’t seen him since her brother said him and his sister moved.  Jillian isn’t too shocked by what really happened. But, she’s heartbroken for what Chaz went through. All at the hands of her brother. 

Jillian has fallen in love with Chaz. She knows his business and what he’s into. But, she knows he’d never hurt her. That, Chaz would protect her and those that he cares about. But, they know they’re still in danger. 

Jillian learns that there was so much her mom didn’t tell her about her father. Chaz continues getting Jillian all the answers. She learns to trust in his friends and they become friends/family to Jillian. 

I couldn’t put this down once I started it. I knew from reading book one that Chaz was going to get to me but man I was unprepared for him. The love and guilt he had for his sister made me think of my bro. The way he felt for Jillian warmed my heart. 

I’m anxiously waiting for the next book. I knew I wanted Chaz and Nick’s stories. There was one time I cried reading this book. That was the first time Nick and Jillian met. I’m not giving anything away. I will tell you I’m extremely extremely looking forward to more of them and their conversations. 

Kathy legit outdid herself with Jillian and Chaz’s story. I can just imagine what she’s going to do with Nick’s being next.

✯Release Review✯The Somber Call (The Ariane Trilogy #2) by Michelle Dare

Title: The Somber Call
Author: Michelle Dare
Genre: YA Paranormal Romance
Cover Designer: Regina Wamba at Mae I Design
Publication Date: November 30th, 2018
Blurb:
A tragic loss. A broken pack. A lone wolf.
The pack war was drawing closer, and Ariane found herself at a crossroad amid the chaos that was her life.
Which road should she follow? One gave her a chance at normalcy, while the other threw her deeper into turmoil.
She had new powers, a shifter for a boyfriend, and blood on her hands. There was also the lone wolf who had been cast out and sought solace with Ari as he fought to return home.
This wasn’t how she thought her life would play out. Nevertheless, a decision had to be made. And in the middle of it was Orion, wondering which road Ari would follow.


✯✯5 Action Packed Stars!!!✯✯

Whoah!!! After the way The Ash Moon ended I couldn’t wait to start this book.  You should not read this book without reading the first book already. 

We pick up right where we left off. This pact war has left the Avynwood pact down one and the Diaminsey pack with a bit of an advantage. 

Ari is left feeling miserable and she feels fully responsible for the death. Rion, Wake, Aries and the rest of the pack continue letting her know it wasn’t. Part of being a wolf is to protect your fellow pact members and always always protect the women and children. 

Ari and Rion still haven’t fully mated. But, everyday they’re together their bond becomes closer and closer. Rion is ready for it to be complete but will give Ari her space and go at the speed she’s ready to go at. 

Ari’s also got an intense connection to her vampire best friend Ford and Rion’s cousin Wake. Rion and Ari can read each other’s minds, have conversations and know what the other is feeling. Ari also has that same connection with Ford. I will say their conversations both out loud and telepathically is legit hilarious. 

Ford’s very open with Ari on his feelings for her. He’s not afraid to tell her he loves her. Ari loves Ford and she’s open with it to him. But, she lets him know she loves him as a friend and that her heart belongs to Rion. 

If those two beautiful, complicated, alpha men weren’t enough add Wake into the situation. He was first kicked outta Avynwood pack and now he’s been kicked out of the Diaminsey pack which leaves him completely alone. Luckily for him he’s got two people in his corner. Ford and Ari. 

Wake wants him family back. His pack back. If he can’t have them back he wants to die. Ari won’t let him kill himself or let anybody else kill him. She’s constantly going against Rion and everybody else. 

Ari is still the person everybody says will be the person behind the stop of this pack war. But, these jerk offs from the Diaminsey pack continue going to crazy lengths to get ahead of the Avynwood pack including going after humans and lying to other paranormal communities in order to get allies. 

Ari is new into the world of the paranormal and she’s young ok too of it.  But, Ari in my opinion is selfish and she’s doing whatever she wants with whoever and making decisions & getting advantages to get ahead in this war. Except she’s not taking Rion’s or Ford’s opinions or feelings into consideration. 

But, they’re all on the same page. Stick together, make allies and get rid of the Diaminsey pack once and for all. When I tell you the last sentence of the book made my jaw break from dropping so damn fast and hard that it’s an understatement lol. 


I can’t wait to read the last book The Crucial Shift. I’m glad there will be spin off books to this series. Bc, umm I need inside Ford and Wake mind. I just hope in the next book Ari stop thinking of herself. If it wasn’t for Rion, Ford and Wake I’d of liked this less. But, man they’re amazing and make this whole story.

✯Review✯Just an Illusion-Encore (The Illusion #5) by D. Kelly


We are thrilled to be bringing you the release of JUST AN ILLUSION - ENCORE by D. Kelly, the final book the Illusion series and the conclusion to Sawyer's story. Make sure to grab your copy today!

 

About JUST AN ILLUSION - ENCORE

Sawyer Weston has done the unthinkable—he’s fallen for his brother's girl. He’d never purposefully hurt Noah, but that’s exactly what’s going to happen if he can’t get her out of his system.
A stolen kiss between them finally brings Sawyer to his senses. No matter how much he wants her, Amelia has made her choice.
When tragedy strikes, Sawyer finds himself taking on more responsibility than he ever imagined. Can Sawyer remain the rock his family needs in their time of crisis? Or will he succumb to his deepest desires and fall in love with Amelia all over again?
Just an Illusion – Encore is the conclusion to Sawyer Weston’s story. Every thought, every feeling, are yours for the taking. Are you ready?


✯✯5 Beautiful Stars!!!✯✯

What an amazing conclusion to an amazing story!! While this might not be the end for the men of Bastards and Dangerous. But, it’s the end of Mel, Noah and Sawyer’s story. 


This is the last part of Sawyer’s book. He’s been writing his POV down so one day Nate and Cadence will get his side of the story of their parents Noah and Belle and the story of him and Mel falling in love. 

Even though this and the previous book are kinda retelling Mel’s story but it’s in Sawyer’s POV and there’s so much stuff we’ve never heard of and getting Sawyer’s POV on things like when Mel went to Belle and Noah’s grave that night. 

And, getting Sawyer’s POV on his time with the guys is great. We get the story of when the guys took Nate on his first fishing trip. 

There’s so many feelings in this book. Sawyer puts everything into his story. He wants Nate to really understand how much Sawyer truly loves him and Mel. The hole he has since he lost Noah is unbearable. 

Sawyer loves Mel and yet he feels guilty that he’s still there with Mel and Nate and watching him grow when Noah isn’t. He’d switch places with Noah in a heartbeat if he could. 

The guys are still very much around Sawyer and Mel. Sawyer’s relationships with Jordan and Darren are great. Then you have him and Eli and OMG they had me smiling and lol bc Sawyer A- can’t believe how much he likes Eli and continues hanging out with him and B- he can see the evil glare on Noah’s face and it’s hysterical to me. 

But, Sawyer and Darren really got to me. These two understood each other without the other one even saying a word. They both lost Belle and Noah. They’re living together keeping their eyes on Mel and raising Nate and Cadence. When they watched Noah’s video it broke me. 

And, that epilogue was everything!! It had me no joke it left me a wreck and in the best way possible.

Needless to say this books amazing!!! Even though Sawyer, Nate and Mel’s story is ending they’re def not going anywhere bc the other guys from this rock band are getting ready to have their stories told. I can’t wait!!!
