Dragon Undercover (Dark Scales Division Book 1) by Lia Davis & Kerry Adrienne

Blurb:

Dragon shifter and team lead for DSD—Dark Scales Division—Owen Ashton has never lost a case. 

When his sister’s murderer turns serial killer, he is determined to take the rogue dragon down, for good. His team tracks the murderer to a small town in Minnesota and Owen goes undercover to finally end Huff’s reign of terror. The last thing Owen expected was to discover his mate vacationing in the lake house next to his.

Nadia Hasting, along with her sister Sage, take the first vacation in years since their parents’ deaths. Visiting the lake house their family rented every year when they were children is exactly what they need for downtime before Sage heads to college. The hot neighbor is a bonus, but Nadia isn’t sure she’s ready to date. But the pull toward the sexy stranger proves too strong to ignore. 

When Sage goes missing, Nadia turns to Owen to rescue her sister from a mad man. 

But will Owen’s dragon scare her away from the one man that can save them all?

My review:

What happens when you mix a shifter romance with a serial murder investigation? Read Dragon Undercover and find out. In my opinion dragon shifter and team lead for DSD—Dark Scales Division—Owen Ashton and his team should never have been on this case to start with. They were too close to it. But I guess it kept them motivated and it did allow Owen to meet his mate. Nadia is smart and responsible and stronger than she knows.

This story is filled with love, loss, duty and determination. I look forward to getting better acquainted with the team. Fun action and romance.

Black Hollow: Reviving Love by Cassidy K. O'Connor

Blurb:

Welcome to Black Hollow, the most paranormal town in America. When your mayor is a Griffin and the local diner is run by mermaid's serving fish and chips, you know you’ll never have a mundane day.

Sarah hasn’t been in a relationship since she left her abusive ex-husband. When her close friends invite her to a weekend in Black Hollow she takes her first step toward moving on. What she doesn’t expect is to meet a man or Frankenstein’s monster in Adam's case.

Adam has lived his life hidden from the world, tired of the stares from strangers. He roamed for centuries tortured with not being able to age or die. He found solace in Black Hollow, it was the perfect place to be himself and forge friendships with other immortals. Until Sarah comes along and he finds the one thing he can’t live without. Complete acceptance and love.

Nothing is ever as easy as that though, someone wants to keep humans out of Black Hollow and Sarah is the first victim. Can Adam save her and his future? 

My review:

Reviving Love is not your average paranormal romance. What if Frankenstein’s monster still lived? Is there anyone who could love him? Adam is currently living in Black Hollow, Massachusetts a town filled with immortal beings where he doesn’t stand out as different. Single mother Sarah has seen monsters up close and personal. As a formerly abused wife she knows that looks don’t define a person. When she meets Adam the scars don’t detract from the instantaneous attraction she feels for him.

I really enjoyed this sweet love story and look forward to visiting Black Hollow again.

Sharp Change (Black Meadows Pack Book 1) by Milly Taiden

Blurb:

**Previously published under the same title but as a shorter story. It is now a FULL LENGTH with an added 25K words.**

*ADDITIONAL BONUS: Pack Princess by Milly Taiden and Mina Carter as a limited time read*

Sophia Reece is a genius geneticist who's isolated the link between shifters and their animals. Unfortunately, she's also a very shy and clumsy woman. That's never more evident than when she has a not so little accident with her lion and wolf samples and ends up becoming her own guinea pig. Watch out, those needles are sharp. Damn, shit just got real.

Alpha wolf Chase knows Sophia is his mate. And if she weren't so shy and always running from him, he'd have made his move with her. He can't stop thinking about her sexy human body and how badly he wants to dip his tongue into all her curves. But when shy Sophia suddenly flashes golden eyes and smells of heat, he's not sure what's going on, but is more than ready to get her naked ASAP.

Sophia isn't prepared for her first mating heat or the fact her feelings for Chase refuse to remain under wraps. When someone wants her research, she'll find out what she's really made of. Who says smart girls can't be alphas too? Things are a lot more complicated than being perfectly mated. The race is on to stop the bad guys from getting their hands on her work and staying alive. Sophia's about to learn that being in love doesn't stop someone from coming face to face with death.

My review:

Sharp Change has my favorite type of heroine. Sophia is shy, zaftig, and smart as can be. When her sister is bitten by a rogue werewolf and is forever changed Sophia wants to give her choices. She has finally figured out which strand of DNA contains the shifter gene. Unfortunately when returning her samples to the safe Sophia accidentally stabs herself with both lion and wolf shifter DNA. Her life is about to get very interesting. Alpha wolf Chase is Sophia’s mate. He is her best shot of surviving the changes that are happening to her.

This book is a sizzling hot paranormal romantic suspense with smoking hot good guys, some creepy bad guys and a whole lot of fun.

Remember Mate (O'Neil Pack Series) by Roxanne Witherell

Blurb:

Willow Carter can’t believe Nadine has shown up at her door after being missing for two months. When she mentions going back for her brother, Willow decides to go with her. Liam went undercover almost a year ago, but no one has heard from him in ten months. The only problem is when they show up he has no idea who they are. Is he still undercover? Or did something happen to him? 
Liam Carson is on the fast track to recovery after being wounded in a rescue mission. He’s suspicious of the woman who returned after being saved by the pack, especially since she brought another woman with her. He’s intrigued at first then quickly puts up his defenses when they try to tell him he’s a federal agent. With his dark past there’s no way he could be an agent of any kind. Why do they insist he’s someone else? Why are they really here? 

My review:

First, the cover is lickable. Each book in this series gets better. Liam has been a mysterious secondary character and now we get his story and what a story it is. Turns out he has more of a back story than even he knows. This book takes you on a mystery ride that will keep you guessing. Watch what happens when his past and present collide.

Threat of Danger (Mission Recovery #2) by Dana Marton

Blurb:

Falling in love can be a deadly proposition in this pulse-quickening Mission Recovery novel from the New York Times bestselling author.

Jess Taylor and Derek Daley were in the throes of first love in a small Vermont town when they were kidnapped by a serial killer. They escaped his clutches—but not the trauma of the unsolved crime. With their lives changed forever and their romance cut short, they went their separate ways to exorcise their fears.

Jess is living on the edge as Hollywood’s hottest stuntwoman. It’s no longer terror thrumming through her veins. It’s adrenaline. Derek is a former Navy SEAL spinning his ordeals into heart-pounding bestselling thrillers. But when Jess is called home on a family emergency, she must face the past—and face the man she left behind, who is just as haunted and, like her, still so much in love.

Now, as an old flame reignites, Jess and Derek are taking advantage of second chances and putting their bad memories behind them. But here, in the quiet town of Taylorville, a killer is getting a second chance as well.

My review:

Threat of Danger is a sweet and exciting second chance romantic suspense. Ten years ago Jess took a chance with the boy she’d crushed on forever. Their abduction wasn’t Derek’s fault but it did send them in very different directions. Now they are both back in the small town they grew up in and so is the guy who abducted them. Can they find their way back to each other? Will their abductor ever be found and brought to justice?

I really enjoyed watching Jess and Derek find their way as I was trying to determine who the masked man was. This was a sweet and engaging story.

Apocalypse Rising: The Complete Series by Dagmar Avery and K. Margaret

Apocalypse Rising: The Complete Series by Dagmar Avery and K. Margaret

Blurb:

The Apocalypse is coming. The Brotherhood has watched and protected this world from the oncoming darkness for as long as time has existed. Each age brings a new threat, a new way for the darkness to eclipse the light forever. It has been over five hundred years since the last major trials, and the world is due. 

Join four warriors, bred to fight the oncoming darkness as their trials begin… and the women that must safeguard their hearts. And it all goes down in Savannah, GA. 

6 Book series bundle includes: 

Eclipsed Heart 
Spectral Heart 
Eternal Heart 
Sacred Heart 
Guarded Heart 
Darkened Heart 

My review:

The Apocalypse is the end of times unless the Brotherhood can stop it therefore it is only right that these books will make you feel and help you discover what life is worth living for. These stories deal with dark times but aren’t a dark read. 

 Eclipsed Heart 

Isaac and his band of brothers are warriors whose purpose is to keep the apocalypse from occurring but of course there are bad guys who want it to happen so they can build a new world from the ashes. The prophecy has the brothers finding their soulmates as part of their strength for the coming battles. I love a brainy guy and Isaac just did it for me. Mags Morgan is a lucky girl. 

Spectral Heart 

I LOVED THIS BOOK! The characters slew me.
Gunnar Bergman is a big brute of a guy who has never had to woo a woman to his bed. But he wants this one in his heart and he is going to have to work at it a bit harder than normal. But life for him and his brothers in arms is anything but normal right now.
Sadie Coulter is a petite unique individual. She is an artist with tattoo’s, piercings and multicolored hair. She owns her body and her heart but the big guy is making her feel like she might want to share.
Sadie made this book for me. She is kick ass take no prisoners. She can definitely handle Gunnar. I liked that Gunnar accepts her for who she is and enjoys her fighting alongside him.
Having been to Savannah Georgia several times I am thrilled that the authors made the grand old lady a character in this book. 

 Eternal Heart 

We met Maggie and Isaac in Eclipsed Heart (Apocalypse Rising Book 1). This book takes place two years later and starts five days before their wedding. This story is sweet and sexy with some laugh out loud moments. There is wedding madness, in-law issues and lots of love. I recommend having read Eclipsed Heart and Spectral Heart first so you can get the most out of this story.

Sacred Heart 

Four warriors to protect us from the apocalypse. Two have found their fated mates and now it’s Halvard’s turn. Hal is the quiet one, the workaholic, the one who doesn’t date. Hal’s trial isn’t made clear in the prophecy and he isn’t going to be shown his mate in a dream like Issac and Gunnar. He has pushed aside his feelings for Priya for five years but current events have thrown them together and he is torn between duty and love. 
The authors take us through heaven and hell and back again as we watch Hal go through a trial that will have him questioning everything he holds dear.
This is a fantastic world with characters you have to love.

Guarded Heart 

Guarded Heart is about Oliver and Bailey two secondary characters in the Apocalypse Rising series. Both of these characters have stories we had no clue about and this book reveals that Oli is not just a young man with a horrible upbringing and Bailey is more than T&A and a smart assed bartender. This book may be short but it is packed with a hell of a story.

Darkened Heart 

OMG! Break out the tissues. This book will take you on an emotional rollercoaster ride that will leave you reeling.

We knew that Hoke’s trial would be difficult because he’s already found and lost the love of his life. It’s been over a hundred years and he still pines but he is determined to do his duty. This book drags Hoke and thus us over the coals and back but you have to believe that it will be worth it in the end.

Darkened Heart is a terrific story and a fitting end to this series.
